If the Debtor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements or covenants contained in this Agreement and the Secured Parties perform or comply, or otherwise causes performance or compliance, with such agreement or covenant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then the expenses of the Secured Parties incurred in connection with such performance or compliance shall be payable by the Debtor to the Secured Parties on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured by this Agreement.
7. Remedies. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Purchase Agreements) has occurred and is continuing, the Secured Parties may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Parties, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice
of any kind (except any notice required by law) to or upon the Debtor or any other person (all of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any or all of the Collateral, and/or may sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver any or all of the Collateral (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as the Secured Parties may deem advisable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Parties shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Debtor, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Subject to Section 2(f), the Secured Parties shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable expenses incurred therein or in connection with the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Parties under this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Secured Parties may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Secured Parties of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Secured Parties account for the surplus, if any, to the Debtor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Debtor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Secured Parties arising out of the exercise by the Secured Parties of any of their respective rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten days before such sale or other disposition. The Debtor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Secured Parties to collect such deficiency.
8. Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Collateral. Each Secured Party’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and preservation of the Collateral, under Section 9207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as such Secured Party deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the same or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Debtor or otherwise.
9. Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and are powers coupled with an interest.
10. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Secured Parties shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof or as otherwise provided herein), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default under the Notes, as the case may be, or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Parties, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Secured Parties of any right or remedy under this Agreement on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Secured Parties would otherwise have on any subsequent occasion. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
11. Termination of Security Interest. Upon satisfaction of the Debtor’s obligations pursuant to the Notes, as the case may be, or conversion of all of the Notes, as the case may be, into shares of the Debtor’s equity securities pursuant to the terms of the Notes, as the case may be, the security interest granted herein shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Debtor. Upon any such termination, the Secured Parties shall authenticate and deliver to the Debtor such documents as the Debtor may reasonably request to evidence such termination.
12. Miscellaneous.
(a) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended or waived with the written consent of the Debtor and the Requisite Holders or their respective successors and assigns. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 12(a) shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.
(b) Transfer; Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Debtor and its successors and assigns, as well as all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Agreement and inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties and its successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the Parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
(c) Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.
(d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
(e) Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.
(f) Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be to the addresses and pursuant to the Procedure set forth in the Purchase Agreements, as the case may be.
(g) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith, in order to maintain the economic position enjoyed by each party as close as possible to that under the provision rendered unenforceable. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any and all other written or oral agreements existing between the parties hereto concerning such subject matter are expressly canceled.
(i) Additional Holders. In the event that after the date hereof Exhibit A of any of the Purchase Agreements, as the case may be, is amended or modified to include additional persons or entities thereon, the Debtor is hereby authorized to amend Exhibit A hereto to reflect such additional persons or entities without any action of the Secured Parties (and such additional persons or entities shall be deemed Secured Parties hereunder even if such amendment of Exhibit A is not made).
(j) Consent. The Secured Parties signature hereto consent in all respects to the issuance of the 2010 Notes (and the related lien and security interest created with respect thereto), the 2010 Purchase Agreement, the warrants to be issued pursuant to the 2010 Purchase Agreement and each of the transactions contemplated by the foregoing.
