Section 5. Agent’s Rights and Remedies in General.

 

(a)           So long as any Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing: (i) the Agent may, at its option, without notice or demand, cause all of the Secured Obligations to become immediately due and payable and take immediate possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Agent may, so far as the Borrower can give authority therefore, enter upon any premises on which any of the Collateral is situated and remove the same therefrom or remain on such premises and in possession of such Collateral for purposes of conducting a sale or enforcing the rights of the Agent; (ii) the Borrower will, upon demand, assemble the Collateral, and make it available to the Agent at a place and time designated by the Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (iii) the Agent may collect and receive all income and Proceeds in respect to any Collateral and exercise all rights of the Borrower with respect thereto; (iv) the Agent may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Collateral at a public or private sale, with or without having such Collateral at the place of sale, and upon such terms and in such manner as the Agent may determine, and the Lenders or any of them may purchase any Collateral at any such sale. Unless such Collateral threatens to decline rapidly in value or is of the type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Agent shall send to the Borrower prior written notice (which, if given within ten (10) days of any sale, shall be deemed to be reasonable) of the time and place of any public sale of such Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition thereof is to be made. The Borrower agrees that upon any such sale such Collateral shall be held by the purchaser free from all claims or rights of every kind and nature, including any equity of redemption or similar rights, and all such equity of redemption and similar rights are hereby expressly waived and released by the Borrower. In the event any

 

10



 

consent, approval or authorization of any governmental agency is necessary to effectuate any such sale, the Borrower shall execute all applications or other instruments as may be required; and (v) in any jurisdiction where the enforcement of its rights hereunder is sought, the Agent shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law.

 

(b)           The Agent may perform any covenant or agreement of the Borrower contained herein that the Borrower has failed to perform and in so doing the Agent may expend such sums as it may reasonably deem advisable in the performance thereof, including, without limitation, the payment of any taxes or insurance premiums, payment to obtain a release of Encumbrance or potential Encumbrance, expenditures made in defending against any adverse claim and all other expenditures which the Agent may make for the protection of Collateral or which it may be compelled to make by operation of law. All such sums and amounts so expended shall be repaid by the Borrower upon demand, shall constitute additional Secured Obligations and shall bear interest from the date said amounts are expended at the rate per annum provided in the Credit Agreement to be paid on Revolving Loans after the occurrence of an Event of Default. No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Agent on behalf of the Borrower, and no such advance or expenditure therefore, shall relieve the Borrower of any Event of Default under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents

 

(c)           Prior to any disposition of Collateral pursuant to this Agreement the Agent may, at its option, cause any of the Collateral to be repaired or reconditioned (but not upgraded unless mutually agreed) in such manner and to the extent as to make it saleable.

 

(d)           The Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, in the course of the exercise of the Agent’s Rights and Remedies pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, the Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, right of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, relating to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral; and the Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Agent’s benefit.

 

(e)           The Borrower recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Investment Property by reason of certain prohibitions contained  in the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended from time to time, the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of various states (the “Blue Sky Laws”), but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Borrower acknowledges that private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Investment Property were sold at public sales. The Borrower agrees that the Agent has no obligation to delay sale of any of the Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the Investment Property to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act or the Blue Sky Laws, and that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

(f)           The Agent shall be entitled to retain and to apply the Proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, first, to its reasonable expenses provided for herein, including attorneys’ fees and other documented legal expenses incurred by it in connection therewith; and second, to the payment of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as the Agent shall determine. Any surplus remaining after such application shall be paid to the Borrower or to whomever may be legally entitled thereto, provided that in no event shall the Borrower be credited with any part of the Proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral until such Proceeds shall have been received in cash from the Agent. The Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency.

 

(g)          The Borrower hereby appoints the Agent and each of the Agent’s designees or agents as attorney-in-fact of the Borrower, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with full authority in the name of the Borrower, the Agent or otherwise, for sole use and benefit of the Lenders, but at the Borrower’s expense, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, to take any and all of the actions specified above in this Section and elsewhere in this Agreement. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations remain outstanding.

 

Section 6. Agent’s Rights and Remedies with Respect to Collateral. The Agent may, at its option, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to or demand on the Borrower, take the following actions with respect to the Collateral:

 

(a)           with respect to any Accounts (i) demand, collect, and receipt of any amounts relating thereto, as the Agent may determine; (ii) commence and prosecute any actions in any court for the purposes of collection any such Accounts and enforcing any other rights in respect thereof, (iii) defend, settle, or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Agent may deem appropriate; (iv) receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to the Borrower and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to such Accounts or securing or relating to such Accounts, on behalf of and in the name of the Borrower; and (v) sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any such Accounts or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes;

 

(b)          with respect to any Equipment and Inventory (i) make, adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy related thereto and place and pay for appropriate insurance thereon; (iii) make repairs or provide maintenance with respect thereto; and (iv) pay any necessary filing fees and any taxes arising as a consequence of any such filing. The Agent shall not thereby relieve the Borrower of its obligation to make such expenditures; and

 

(c)           with respect to any Investment Property (i) transfer it at any time to Agent, or to its nominee, and receive the income thereon and hold the same as Collateral hereunder or apply it to any matured Secured Obligations; and (ii) demand, sue for, collect or make any compromise or settlement it deems desirable.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Agent shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of any Collateral nor as to the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto, beyond the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession.

 

Section 7. Set-Off. Regardless of the adequacy of any Collateral or other means of obtaining repayment of the Secured Obligations, any deposits, balances or other sums credited by or due from the head office of the Agent or any of its branch offices to the Borrower and any property of the Borrower now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of the Agent or in transit to the Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower or compliance with any other condition precedent now or hereafter imposed by statute, rule of law, or otherwise (all of which are hereby expressly waived) be set -off, appropriated and applied by the Agent against any and all Secured Obligations of the Borrower in such manner as the head office of the Agent or any of its branch offices in its sole discretion may determine, and the Borrower hereby grants the Agent a continuing security interest in such deposits, balances, other sums and property for the payment and performance of all such Secured Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE THE AGENT TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHTS OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, BALANCES, OTHER SUMS AND PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

 

Section 8. Waivers. The Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of any loans made, credit or other extensions granted, Collateral received or delivered and any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description, except for such demands and notices as are expressly required to be provided to the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  The Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension and redemption laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshaling in the event of any sale or disposition of any of the Collateral with respect to both the Secured Obligations and any Collateral.  The Borrower assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other forgiveness or indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of Collateral, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromise or adjustment of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Agent may deem advisable.  The Agent may exercise its rights with respect to the Collateral without resorting, or regard, to other collateral or sources of reimbursement for Secured Obligations.  The Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights with respect to the Secured Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Agent.  No delay or omission on part of the Agent in exercising any right and no course of dealing shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right.  A waiver on any one occasion shall not bar or waive the exercise of any right on any future occasion.  All rights and remedies of the Agent in the Secured Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or any other agreement, and may be exercised separately or concurrently.

Section 9. Notices. All notices, approvals, request, demands and other communications  hereunder shall be given in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 10. Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Agent and its successors and assigns; provided that the Borrower may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, a Lender may, in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Credit Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer any agreement or any note held by it evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Secured Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any other person or entity, and such other person or entity shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in agreement evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to the Lender herein.  The Lender shall provide notice of any such assignment to the Borrower.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue.  THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE CONTRACTS UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SAID STATE (EXCLUDING THE LAWS APPLICABLE TO CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF LAW). THE BORROWER CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY OF THE FEDERAL OR STATE COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT TO ENFORCE THE RIGHTS OF THE LENDER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND CONSENTS TO SERVICE OP PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT BEING MADE UPON THE BORROWER BY MAIL AT THE BORROWER’S ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IN WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN THIS SECTION AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH ACTION THAT SUCH ACTION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. THE BORROWER (a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LENDERS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH EACH IS A PARTY BECAUSE OF, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE BORROWER’S WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN.

 

Section 13. General. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by each of the Borrower and the Agent.  This Agreement and any amendment hereof may be executed in several counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.  Section headings are for convenience of reference only and are not a part of this Agreement.  In the event that any Collateral or any deposit or other sum due from or credited by the Agent is held or stands in the name of the Borrower and another or others jointly, the Agent may deal with the same for all purposes as if it belonged to or stood in the name of the Borrower alone.
