BACKGROUND:
A.  Owner or its subsidiary owns or leases and operates certain civil aircraft identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Aircraft”).
B.  Owner or its subsidiary employs fully qualified flight crews to operate the Aircraft; and
C.  From time to time, Lessee may desire to lease the Aircraft with a flight crew from Owner for Lessee’s personal travel at Lessee’s discretion on a non-exclusive time sharing basis as defined in Section 91.501(c)(1) of the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FAR”).
NOW, THEREFORE, Owner and Lessee agree as follows:
1.        This Agreement shall govern personal use of the Aircraft by Lessee or by family members or guests of Lessee as and to the extent set forth in such policy or policies as the Board of Directors of Owner, or the Compensation Committee thereof, shall adopt from time to time.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Owner agrees to lease, from time to time on a non-exclusive and non-continuous basis, the Aircraft to Lessee for Lessee’s personal travel at Lessee’s discretion pursuant to the provisions of FAR Sections 91.501(b)(6), 91.501(c)(1) and 91.501(d) and to provide a fully qualified flight crew for all operations for flights scheduled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and terminating on the earlier of (a) the termination of this Agreement by consent of Owner and Lessee, (b) the date of Lessee’s termination of employment with Owner and (c) the date of Lessee’s death. Owner shall have the right to add or substitute aircraft of similar type, quality, and equipment, and to remove aircraft from the fleet, from time to time during the term of this Agreement. Owner shall send Lessee a revised Exhibit A upon each such change in the Aircraft.
2.        For each flight conducted under this Agreement and subject to the Owner’s Policy on Use of Company Aircraft that may be in effect from time to time, Lessee shall pay Owner the actual, incremental cost to the Owner of such flight but only to the extent authorized by FAR Section 91.501(d) as in effect from time to time. As of the effective date of this Agreement, such payment from Lessee to Owner for any specific flight shall not exceed:

Subject to the Owner’s Policy on Use of Company Aircraft that may be in effect from time to time, Owner will pay all expenses related to the operation of each Aircraft when incurred and will provide quarterly invoices to Lessee for the expenses enumerated in Section 2 above.

Lessee shall reimburse Owner for the expenses authorized by FAR Section 91.501(d) plus applicable federal excise taxes within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the related invoice. Owner agrees to collect and remit to the Internal Revenue Service for the benefit of Lessee all such federal excise taxes.
4.        In the event that Lessee desires to use the Aircraft pursuant to this Agreement, Lessee will so notify Owner and will provide Owner with requests for flight time and proposed flight schedules as far as possible in advance of any given flight.

(b)    destinations;
(c)    date and time of flight;

Owner retains the right, during the Term, (a) to use and operate the Aircraft under FAR Part 91 and (b) to the extent permitted by the FARs, to lease and/or furnish (under separate time sharing or interchange agreements) the Aircraft to one or more third parties who may also use and/or operate the Aircraft under FAR Part 91.
6.        Owner shall be solely responsible for securing maintenance, preventive maintenance, and required or otherwise necessary inspections on the Aircraft and shall take such requirements into account in scheduling flights of the various Aircraft. No period of maintenance, preventive maintenance, or inspection shall be delayed or postponed for the purpose of scheduling the Aircraft, unless such maintenance or inspection can be safely conducted at a later time in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and within the sound discretion of the pilot-in-command.

Lessee specifically agrees that the flight crew shall have final and complete authority to delay or cancel any flight for any reason or condition which, in the sole judgment of the pilot-in-command, could compromise the safety of the flight and to take any other action which, in the sole judgment of the pilot in command, is necessitated by considerations of safety. Without limiting the generality of Section 8, no such action of the pilot-in-command shall create or support any liability for loss, injury, damage, or delay to Lessee or any other person.
8.        The Owner and Lessee agree that Owner shall not be liable to Lessee or any other person for loss, injury, or damage occasioned by the delay or failure to furnish the Aircraft and crew pursuant to this Agreement for any reason.
9.        The risk of loss during the period when any Aircraft is operated on behalf of Lessee under this Agreement shall remain with Owner, and Owner will retain all rights and benefits with respect to the proceeds payable under policies of hull insurance maintained by Owner that may be payable as a result of any incident or occurrence while an Aircraft is being operated on behalf of Lessee under this Agreement.

4.     Conversion.

 

(a)     Payee's right to Convert. Except as provided by the “Ownership Limitation” as defined below in this Paragraph 4(a) or in Paragraph 4(g)(iii) below, Payee shall have the right, at any time commencing on the date hereof until the close of business on the day the Obligations are paid in full, to cause the conversion (a “Conversion”) of all or any portion (if such portion is Five Thousand ($5,000) Dollars or a whole multiple of Five Thousand ($5,000) Dollars) of the Principal outstanding at the time such Conversion is effected (the "Convertible Principal") into shares of Common Stock (the "Underlying Shares"). The price for Conversion, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5 below, shall be Fifty Five ($0.55) Cents per share (the “Conversion Rate”). Maker will not issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon Conversion but will instead will issue cash calculated to the nearest penny in the amount equal to the fractional share times the closing price for a share of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of such conversion. Except as may be provided in Section 4 (b) below, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall Payee be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Payee and Payee’s affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Note or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other of Maker’s securities subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by Payee and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Ownership Limitation”). Beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D - G thereunder, provided, further, however, that the limitations on conversion may be waived by Payee upon, at the election of Payee, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to Maker, and the provisions of the conversion limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by Payee, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).

(b)     Manner of Conversion. Payee may exercise its Conversion right by completing, executing and sending to Maker a completed and executed Note Conversion Form appended hereto as Annex A (the “Conversion Notice”) setting forth the amount of the Convertible Principal to be converted and providing the other information required in the Conversion Notice. Maker shall issue the number of Underlying Shares into which the Convertible Principal is to be converted in accordance with the Conversion Rate. If required by applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations, Payee shall represent in writing to Maker prior to the receipt of the Underlying Shares that such Shares will be acquired by Payee for investment only and not for resale or with a view to the distribution thereof, and shall agree that any certificates representing the Shares may bear a legend, conspicuously noting such restriction, as Maker shall deem reasonably necessary or desirable to enable it to comply with any applicable federal and/or state laws or regulations.

 

(c)     Delivery of Certificates Upon Conversion. Certificates for Underlying Shares to be issued upon Conversion shall be transmitted by Maker’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to Payee (A) by crediting the account of Payee’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system if Maker is then a participant in such system and there is an effective Registration Statement, as defined in Section 6 below, permitting the issuance of the Underlying Shares to or resale of the Underlying Shares by Payee or (B) if the Maker is not then a participant in the DWAC system and there is not an effective Registration Statement as aforesaid, by physical delivery of the certificates, bearing the restrictive legends required by Section 4(b) above if the Underlying Shares are otherwise not publicly tradable or without such restrictive legends if the Underlying Shares are otherwise publicly tradable, to the address specified by Payee in the Conversion Notice by the date that is five (5) Business Days after the later of (i) the delivery to Maker of the Conversion Notice or (ii) surrender of this Note (such date, the “Underlying Share Delivery Date”).

 

(d)     Rights on Failure of Timely Delivery. If Maker fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to Payee a certificate or the certificates representing the Underlying Shares pursuant to Paragraph 4.(c) above by the Underlying Share Delivery Date, then, (i) Payee will have the right to rescind such Conversion, which will terminate on the earlier of the actual delivery of the Underlying Shares or ten (10) Business Days after the Underlying Share Delivery Date; and (ii) Maker shall pay to Payee as liquidated damages and not as a penalty Two Hundred Fifty ($250.00) Dollars for each day after the Underlying Share Delivery Date that Maker fails to deliver the certificate or the certificates representing the Underlying Shares pursuant to Paragraph 4.(c) above. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit the Warrant Shares to the Holder via the DWAC system or a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date as provided in Section 3.3 above, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, reasonable evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(e)     Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, Payee shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to Maker unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. Payee and Maker shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to Payee and Maker, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of Payee shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of fraud or manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, Payee may not transfer this Note unless Payee first physically surrenders this Note to Maker, whereupon Maker will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of Payee a new Note of like tenor, registered as Payee (upon payment by Payee of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note. Payee and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(f)     Taxes on Shares Issued. The issue of stock certificates on Conversions of this Note shall be made without charge to Payee for any tax in respect of such issue. As noted in Section 4(e) above, Maker shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Common Stock in any name other than that of Payee, and Maker shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates representing such Common Stock unless and until the person or persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to Maker the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of Maker that such tax has been paid.

(g)     Covenants of Maker Relating to Conversion. Maker covenants and agrees that from and after the date hereof and until the date of repayment of all of the Obligations, or Conversion of all of the Convertible Principal:

 

(i)     It shall reserve, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, or out of shares of Common Stock held in its treasury, sufficient shares to provide for the Conversion of this Note from time to time as this Note is presented for Conversion;

 

(ii)     All Underlying Shares that may be issued upon Conversion of this Note will upon issue be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and will not be subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder of Maker;

 

(iii)      If any Underlying Shares to be provided for the purpose of Conversion of the Convertible Principal requires registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly issued upon Conversion, Maker will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as the case may be, and Maker's obligation to deliver shares of the Common Stock upon Conversion of the Convertible Principal shall be abated until such registration or approval is obtained; provided, however, that this Note and the Obligations shall remain outstanding unless paid in full until Maker delivers the Underlying Shares and any then accrued but unpaid Interest to Payee and in no event shall this Note be converted until Maker effects such delivery; and

 

(iv)     If, and thereafter so long as the Common Stock shall be listed on any securities exchange, market or other quotation system, Maker will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange, market or other quotation system, list and keep listed and for sale so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange, market or other quotation system, upon official notice of issuance, all Underlying Shares issuable upon Conversion of the Convertible Principal and, in addition, if the rules of such exchange, market or other quotation system require stockholder approval for the authorization and/or issuance of the Underlying Shares issuable upon Conversion of the Convertible Principal Maker will use its best efforts to obtain such approval in a timely manner.

 

(h)     Mandatory Conversion. On or after the earlier of the Effective Date as long as a Registration Statement remains effective or the date on which the Underlying Shares may otherwise be sold publicly, Maker may, at its option, convert all of this Note but not any portion thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 above at any time on not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, provided that the closing price for a share of Common Stock equals or exceeds Three ($3.00) Dollars for a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending one trading day prior to the notice of Mandatory Conversion. 

 

(i)     Exchange Listing; Shareholder Approval. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Payee may not exercise its Conversion rights until the NYSE Mkt has approved the additional listing of the Underlying shares and Maker’s shareholders have approved the potential issuance of the Underlying Shares pursuant to Section 713(a) of the NYSE Mkt rules, if applicable. Maker will take all action reasonably required to obtain such shareholder approval as soon as possible if applicable.

5.     Adjustment in Conversion Rate. 

 

(a)     Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. Except as provided in Paragraph 5 (l) below, if Maker shall (i) declare a dividend on its outstanding Common Stock in shares of its capital stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) issue any shares of its capital stock by reclassification of its Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which Maker is the continuing corporation), then in each such case the Conversion privilege and the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that if this Note is thereafter converted, Payee may receive the number and kind of shares which Payee would have owned immediately following such action if Payee had converted this Note immediately prior to such action. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an event shall occur. The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or reclassification. If after an adjustment Payee upon Conversion of this Note may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of Maker, Maker's Board of Directors shall determine, in good faith, the allocation of the adjusted Conversion Rate between or among, as the case may be, the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the conversion privilege and conversion rate of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 5. 

 

(b)     [Intentionally Deleted]

 

(c)     Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5(a) above, if at any time Maker grants, issues or sells any rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then Payee will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which Payee could have acquired if Payee had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including, without limitation, the Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that Payee’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in Payee exceeding the Ownership Limitation, then Payee shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for Payee until such time, if ever, as Payee’s right thereto would not result in Payee exceeding the Ownership Limitation).

 

(d)     Action to Permit Valid Issuance of Common Stock. Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Rate below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, Maker will take all corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that Maker may validly and legally issue shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Rate.

(e)     Minimum Adjustment. No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required if such adjustment is less than 1% of the then Existing Conversion Rate; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Paragraph 5 (d) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, Maker shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by this Paragraph 5 (e), as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock dividends, subdivision of shares, distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities, or distribution of securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by Maker to its stockholders shall not be taxable. 

 

(f)     Referral of Adjustment. In any case in which this Section 5 shall require that an adjustment in the Conversion Rate be made effective as of a record date for a specified event (the “Conversion Event”), if this Note shall have been converted after such record date, Maker may elect to defer until the occurrence of the Conversion Event issuing to Payee the shares, if any, issuable upon the Conversion Event over and above the shares, if any, issuable upon such Conversion Event on the basis of the Conversion Rate in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that Maker shall deliver to Payee a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing Payee’s right to receive such additional shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. 

 

(g)     Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Conversion Rate as a result of the calculations made in Paragraphs 5 (a), (b) and (c) above, this Note shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Conversion Rate, that number of shares (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth) obtained by dividing (i) the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares issuable upon Conversion of this Note prior to adjustment of the number of shares by the Conversion Rate in effect prior to adjustment of the Conversion Rate by (ii) the Conversion Rate in effect after such adjustment of the Conversion Rate. 

 

(h)     When No Adjustment Required. No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in Paragraphs 5 (a), (b) and (c) above if Payee is permitted to participate in the transaction on a basis no less favorable than any other party and at a level that would preserve Payee’s percentage equity participation in the Common Stock upon Conversion of this Note. No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value of the Common Stock, or from par value to no par value or no par value to par value. If this Note becomes convertible solely into cash, no adjustment need be made thereafter. Interest will not accrue on the cash. The transactions set forth in this Section 5(h) are defined as “Exempt Issuances”.

 

(i)     Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted, Maker shall promptly mail to Payee a notice of the adjustment together with a certificate from Maker's Chief Financial Officer briefly stating (i) the facts requiring the adjustment, (ii) the adjusted Conversion Rate and the manner of computing it, and (iii) the date on which such adjustment becomes effective. The certificate shall be evidence that the adjustment is correct, fraud or absent manifest error.

(j)     [Intentionally Deleted]

 

(k)     [Intentionally Deleted]

 

(l)     Notice of Certain Transactions. If (i) Maker takes any action that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 5; or (ii) there is a liquidation or dissolution of Maker, Maker shall mail to Payee a notice stating the proposed record date for a distribution or effective date of a reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, lease, liquidation or dissolution. Maker shall mail the notice at least fifteen (15) days before such date. 

 

(m)     Reorganization of Maker. If Maker and/or the holders of Common Stock are parties to a merger, consolidation or a transaction in which (i) Maker transfers or leases substantially all of its assets; (ii) Maker reclassifies or changes its outstanding Common Stock; or (iii) the Common Stock is exchanged for securities, cash or other assets; the person who is the transferee or lessee of such assets or is obligated to deliver such securities, cash or other assets shall assume the terms of this Note. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon Conversion of this Note is an affiliate of the surviving, transferee or lessee corporation, that issuer shall join in such assumption. The assumption agreement shall provide that the Payee may convert the Convertible Principal into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets that Payee would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger, transfer, lease or exchange if Payee had converted this Note immediately before the effective date of the transaction. The assumption agreement shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The successor company shall mail to Payee a notice briefly describing the assumption agreement. If this Paragraph applies, Paragraph 5 (a) above does not apply. 

 

6.     Maker’s Covenant to Register the Underlying Shares. Maker covenants to Payee that it, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date hereof, will file a registration statement to register the Underlying Shares and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants owned by Payee (the “Warrant Shares”) under the Act pursuant to a registration statement (a “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as possible in accordance with the terms of an agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof between Maker and Payee.

 

7.     Maker’s Covenants. Maker covenants and agrees that from and after the date hereof and until the date of repayment in full of the Obligations and satisfaction of the Conversion Obligations it shall comply with the following conditions:

 

(i)     Payment of Secured Obligations. Maker will pay the indebtedness evidenced by this Note according to the terms hereof, and will timely pay or perform, as the case may be, all the other Secured Obligations.

(vii)     Compliance with Material Agreements, Leases, Licenses and Financial Obligations. All of the terms of each of Maker’s and/or its subsidiaries’ and affiliates’, material agreements, leases, licenses and financial obligations shall be complied with, and each of them shall be kept in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms.

 

(viii)     Prohibition on Guarantees. From and after the date hereof, neither Maker nor any of its subsidiaries shall guarantee any obligations or commitments of any third party.

11.     Remedies.

 

11.1     Acceleration and Rights. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Secured Obligations will be immediately due and payable in full and Payee at any time thereafter may at its option accelerate the maturity of the Secured Obligations. Upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, payee will have the following rights and remedies:

 

(a)     All of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of California or any other applicable state, or under other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies will be cumulative, and none of which will be exclusive, to the extent permitted by law, in addition to any other rights and remedies contained in this Note.

 

(b)     The right to: (i) enter upon the premises of Maker, any of its subsidiaries, or any other place or places where the Collateral is located and kept, through self-help and without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, notice and opportunity for a hearing on the validity of Payee’s claims and without any obligation to pay rent to Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, and take possession of and/or remove the Collateral therefrom to the premises of Payee or any agent of Payee for such time as Payee may desire, in order to effectively collect or liquidate the Collateral, and/or (ii) require Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, at it’s expense, to assemble any part of all of the Collateral and make it available to Payee at a place to be designated by Payee in its sole discretion. Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, shall be allowed up to five (5) business days to assemble Collateral not in Payee’s control. 

 

(c)     The right to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any Collateral in its then existing condition at public or private sale or sales, with such notice as may be required by law, in lots or in bulk, for cash or on credit, all as Payee, in its sole discretion may deem advisable, free from right or equity of redemption of Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, which right or equity is hereby expressly waived and released. Such sales may be adjourned from time to time with or without notice. Payee will have the right to conduct such sales on the premises of Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, or elsewhere and will have the right to use the premises of Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, without charge for such sales for such time or times as Payee may see fit. Payee is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, Maker’s or any of its subsidiaries’, as applicable, labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for sale and selling any Collateral and the rights of Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, under all licenses, and all franchise agreements will inure to Payee’s benefit. Payee will have the right to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, for cash, credit or any combination thereof, and Payee may purchase all or any part of the Collateral at public or, if permitted by applicable law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of such purchase price, may set off the amount of such price against the Secured Obligations. In the event Payee institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, Maker waives, and will cause any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, to waive the posting of any bond, which might otherwise be required.

(d)     Any notice required to be given by Payee of a sale, lease, other disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action by Payee, given to Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, in the manner set forth in Section 14 (g) below ten (10) business days prior to such proposed action, will constitute commercially reasonable and fair notice thereof to Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable.

 

(e)     Upon an Event of Default, Maker irrevocably designates, makes, constitutes, and appoints Payee (and all persons designated by Payee), and shall cause any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, to, irrevocably designate, make, constitute, and appoint Payee (and all persons designated by Payee) as the true and lawful attorney of Maker and any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, and Payee may, without notice and at such time or times thereafter as Payee in Payee’s sole discretion, may determine, in the name of Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, or Payee’s name: (i) demand payment of accounts; (ii) enforce payment of accounts by legal proceedings or otherwise; (iii) exercise all of Maker’s and any of its subsidiaries’, as applicable, rights and remedies regarding the collection of accounts; (iv) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew accounts; (v) settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect accounts; (vi) if permitted by applicable law, sell or assign accounts and other Collateral upon such terms, for such amounts and at such time or times as Payee deems advisable; (vii) discharge and release accounts and other Collateral; (viii) prepare, file and sign the name of Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any account debtor and exercise Maker’s and any of Maker’s subsidiaries’, as applicable, rights to vote with respect thereto in such bankruptcy case; (ix) prepare, file and sign the name of Maker, or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, on any notice of lien, assignment or satisfaction of lien or similar document in connection with accounts and other Collateral; (x) do all acts and things necessary, in Payee’s sole discretion, to fulfill the obligations of Maker under this Agreement; (xi) endorse the name of Maker, or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, upon any of the items of payment or proceeds thereof and deposit the same to the account of Payee on account of the Secured Obligations; (xii) endorse the name of Maker, or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, upon any chattel paper, document, instrument, invoice, freight bill, bill of lading, or similar document or agreement relating to the accounts, inventory and other Collateral; (xiii) use the stationery and sign the name of Maker, or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, to verifications of such accounts and notices thereof to account debtors; and (xiv) use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment and computer hardware and software relating to the Collateral to which Maker and any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, has access.

 

(f)     Upon an Event of Default, unless expressly prohibited by any licensor thereof, Payee is hereby granted a license to use all computer software programs, data bases, processes, trademarks, trade names and materials used by Maker and any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, in connection with its respective business or in connection with the Collateral.

 

(g)     Payee, at its sole option and discretion, may delay enforcement of any such rights and remedies to allow officers of Maker, or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, reasonable time to secure additional financing sufficient to satisfy the Secured Obligations.

(h)     To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Payee to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner (which duties cannot be waived under such law), Maker acknowledges and agrees and Maker shall cause any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, to agree that it is not commercially unreasonable for Payee (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Payee to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain consents of any governmental authority or other third party for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors, secondary obligors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Payee against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Payee a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Payee, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Payee in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Maker acknowledges, and shall cause any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, to acknowledge, that the purpose of this paragraph is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Payee would not be commercially unreasonable in the exercise by Payee of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Payee shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this paragraph. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to grant any rights to Maker or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable, or to impose any duties on Payee that would not have been granted or imposed by this Note or by applicable law in the absence of this paragraph. 

 

11.2     Remedies Cumulative, No Waiver. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Payee by this Note is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy will be cumulative and concurrent and will be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute. No delay or omission by Payee to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the occurrence of any Event of Default will exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and every right, power and remedy given by this Note to Payee may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Payee

Fourth, the remainder, if any, to Maker or to any other person lawfully thereunto entitled.
