(including, without limitation, Obligations arising under the European Loan Agreement), a continuing security interest in, and
pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products

of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations,

or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.

 

Borrower acknowledges that it
previously has entered, and/or may in the future enter, into Bank Services Agreements with Bank. Regardless of the terms of any
Bank Services Agreement, Borrower agrees that any amounts Borrower owes Bank thereunder shall be deemed to be Obligations hereunder
and that it is the intent of Borrower and Bank to have all such Obligations secured by the first priority perfected security interest
in the Collateral granted herein (subject only to Permitted Liens that expressly have superior priority to Bank’s Lien in
this Agreement).

in full, and at such time, Bank shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, terminate its security interest in the Collateral
and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower. In the event (a) all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations),
except for Bank Services, are satisfied in full, and (b) this Agreement is terminated, Bank shall terminate the security interest
granted herein upon Borrower providing cash collateral acceptable to Bank in its good faith business judgment for Bank Services,

the Obligations (other than inchoate liabilities, but including, without limitation, Obligations arising under the European Loan
Agreement) and at such time as Bank’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, Bank shall, at Borrower’s
sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.”

thereof:
