The security interest granted to the Holders in this Agreement shall be a senior security interest, prior and superior to the rights of all third parties existing on or arising after the date of this Agreement, subject to the Permitted Liens.

 

 

(b)         All of the Equipment, Inventory and Goods owned by each Grantor is located in the states as specified on Schedule I attached hereto (except to the extent any such Equipment, Inventory or Goods is in transit or located at such Grantor’s job site in the ordinary course of business). Except as disclosed on Schedule I, no material Collateral is in the possession of any bailee, warehousemen, processor or consignee. Schedule I discloses such Borrower name as of the date hereof as it appears in official filings in the state or province, as applicable, of its incorporation, formation or organization, the type of entity of Borrower (including corporation, partnership, limited partnership or limited liability company), the organizational identification number issued by Borrower’s state of incorporation, formation or organization (or a statement that no such number has been issued), and the chief place of business, chief executive officer and the office where Borrower keeps its books and records. Each Grantor has only one state or province, as applicable, of incorporation, formation or organization.

(b)         The Holders or their representatives shall have the right, upon reasonable prior written notice to a Grantor and during the regular business hours of the Grantor, to examine and inspect the Collateral and to review the books and records of the Grantor concerning the Collateral that is now owned or acquired after the date of this Agreement by the Grantor and to copy the same and make excerpts therefrom; provided, however, that from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the rights of inspection and entry shall be subject to the requirements of the Code.

 

(c)         Each Grantor shall at all times during the term of this Agreement keep the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures that are now owned by each Grantor in the states set forth on Schedule I or, upon written notice to the Collateral Agent, at such other locations for which the Holders have filed financing statements, and in no other states without ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Holders, except that each Grantor shall have the right until one or more Events of Default shall occur to sell, move or otherwise dispose of Inventory and other Collateral in the ordinary course of business.

 

(d)         Each Grantor shall not move the location of its principal executive offices without prior written notification to the Collateral Agent.

 

 

(e)         Without the prior written consent of the Holders, each Grantor shall not sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Equipment or Fixtures, except in the ordinary course of their business.

 

(f)         Promptly upon request of the Holders or the Collateral Agent from time to time, each Grantor shall furnish the Holders or the Collateral Agent with such information and documents regarding the Collateral and each Grantor’s financial condition, business, assets or liabilities, at such times and in such form and detail as the Holders may reasonably request.

 

(g)         During the term of this Agreement, each Grantor shall deliver to the Holders or the Collateral Agent, upon their reasonable, written request from time to time, without limitation,

 

(i)         all invoices and customer statements rendered to account debtors, documents, contracts, chattel paper, instruments and other writings pertaining to each Grantor’s contracts or the performance of each Grantor’s contracts,

 

(ii)         evidence of each Grantor’s accounts and statements showing the aging, identification, reconciliation and collection thereof, and

 

(iii)         reports as to each Grantor’s inventory and sales, shipment, damage or loss thereof, all of the foregoing to be certified by authorized officers or other employees of each Grantor, and Borrower shall take all necessary action during the term of this Agreement to perfect any and all security interests in favor of each Grantor and to assign to Holders all such security interests in favor of each Grantor.

 

(h)         Notwithstanding the security interest in the Collateral granted to and created in favor of the Holders under this Agreement, each Grantor shall have the right until one or more Events of Default shall occur, at its own cost and expense, to collect the Accounts and the Chattel Paper and to enforce their contract rights.

 

(i)         After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to give notice of the Holders’ security interest to account debtors obligated to each Grantor and to take over and direct collection of the Accounts and the Chattel Paper, to notify such account debtors to make payment directly to the Holders and to enforce payment of the Accounts and the Chattel Paper and to enforce each Grantor’s contract rights. It is understood and agreed by each Grantor that the Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever under this subsection (i) except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(j)         At all times during the term of this Agreement, each Grantor shall promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent, upon its written request, all existing leases, and all other leases entered into by each Grantor from time to time, covering any material Equipment or Inventory (“Leased Inventory”) which is leased to third parties.

 

 

(k)         Each Grantor shall not change its name, entity status, federal taxpayer identification number, or provincial organizational or registration number, or the state under which it is organized without the prior written consent of the Holders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

(l)         Each Grantor shall not close any of its Deposit Accounts or open any new or additional Deposit Accounts without first giving the Holders at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice thereof; however, Holders grant the Collateral Agent the power to waive a portion of the notice period if such waiver does not harm Holders’ security position.

 

(m)         Each Grantor shall cooperate with the Holders and the Collateral Agent, at each Grantor’s reasonable expense, in perfecting Holders’ security interest in any of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at its own expense, such Grantor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect the security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any of the Collateral.

 

(n)         The Collateral Agent may file any necessary financing statements and other documents the Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary in order to perfect Holders’ security interest without either Grantor’s signature. Each Grantor grants to the Collateral Agent a power of attorney for the sole purpose of executing any documents on behalf of each Grantor which the Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary to perfect Holders’ security interest. Such power, coupled with an interest, is irrevocable.

 

4.         Actions with Respect to Accounts. Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with power to sign its name and to take any of the following actions after the occurrence and prior to the cure of an Event of Default, at any time without notice to either Grantor and at each Grantor’s reasonable expense:

 

(a)         Verify the validity and amount of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise;

 

(b)         Notify all account debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to the Holders and that the Holders have a security interest in the Accounts;

(d)         Take control in any reasonable manner of any cash or non-cash items of payment or proceeds of Accounts;

 

(e)         Receive, open and respond to all mail addressed to each Grantor;

 

(f)         Take control in any manner of any rejected, returned, stopped in transit or repossessed goods relating to Accounts;

 

 

(g)          Enforce payment of and collect any Accounts, by legal proceedings or otherwise, and for such purpose the Holders may:

 

(1)          Demand payment of any Accounts or direct any account debtors to make payment of Accounts directly to the Holders;

 

(2)          Receive and collect all monies due or to become due to each Grantor pursuant to the Accounts;

 

(3)          Exercise all of each Grantor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of Accounts;

 

(4)          Settle, adjust, compromise, extend, renew, discharge or release Accounts in a commercially reasonable manner;

 

(5)          Sell or assign Accounts on such reasonable terms, for such reasonable amounts and at such reasonable times as the Holders reasonably deem advisable;

 

(6)          Prepare, file and sign each Grantor’s name or names on any Proof of Claim or similar documents in any proceeding filed under federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law as to any account debtor;

 

(7)          Prepare, file and sign each Grantor’s name or names on any notice of lien, claim of mechanic’s lien, assignment or satisfaction of lien or mechanic’s lien or similar document in connection with the Collateral;

 

(8)          Endorse the name of each Grantor upon any chattel papers, documents, instruments, invoices, freight bills, bills of lading or similar documents or agreements relating to Accounts or goods pertaining to Accounts or upon any checks or other media of payment or evidence of a security interest that may come into the Holders’ possession;

 

(9)          Sign the name or names of each Grantor to verifications of Accounts and notices of Accounts sent by account debtors to each Grantor; or

 

(10)          Take all other actions that the Holders reasonably deem to be necessary or desirable to protect each Grantor’s interest in the Accounts.

 

(h)          Negotiate and endorse any Document in favor of the Holders or their designees, covering Inventory which constitutes Collateral, and related documents for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing in the name(s) of Borrower any instrument which the Holders may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purpose hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect checks and other orders for the payment of money made payable to each Grantor representing any payment or reimbursement made under, pursuant to or with respect to, the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge to the same. Each Grantor does hereby ratify and approve all acts of said attorney and agrees that said attorney shall not be liable for any acts of commission or omission, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law, except for said attorney’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Notes are paid in full (at which time this power shall terminate in full) and each Grantor shall have performed all of its obligations under this Agreement. Each Grantor further agrees to use its reasonable efforts to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection and enforcement of the Accounts and will not hinder, delay or impede the Holders in any manner in its collection and enforcement of the Accounts.

 

 

5.          Preservation and Protection of Security Interest. Each Grantor represents and warrants that it has, and covenants and agrees that at all times during the term of this Agreement, it will have, good and marketable title to the Collateral now owned by it free and clear of all mortgages, pledges, liens, security interests, charges or other encumbrances, except for the Permitted Liens and those junior in right of payment and enforcement to that of the Holders or in favor of the Holders, and shall defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons, firms and entities whomsoever. Assuming Holders have taken all required action to perfect a security interest in the Collateral as provided by the Code, each Grantor represents and warrants that as of the date of this Agreement the Holders have, and that all times in the future the Holders will have, a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral, prior and superior to the rights of all third parties in the Collateral existing on the date of this Agreement or arising after the date of this Agreement, subject to the Permitted Liens. Except as permitted by this Agreement, each Grantor covenants and agrees that it shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders (i) borrow against the Collateral or any portion of the Collateral from any other person, firm or entity, except for borrowings which are subordinate to the rights of the Holders, (ii) grant or create or permit to attach or exist any mortgage, pledge, lien, charge or other encumbrance, or security interest on, of or in any of the Collateral or any portion of the Collateral except those in favor of the Holders or the Permitted Liens, (iii) permit any levy or attachment to be made against the Collateral or any portion of the Collateral, except those subject to the Permitted Liens, or (iv) permit any financing statements to be on file with respect to any of the Collateral, except financing statements in favor of the Holders or those with respect to the Permitted Liens. Each Grantor shall faithfully preserve and protect the Holders’ security interest in the Collateral and shall, at its own reasonable cost and expense, cause, or assist the Holders to cause that security interest to be perfected and continue perfected so long as the Notes or any portion of the Notes are outstanding, unpaid or executory. For purposes of the perfection of the Holders’ security interest in the Collateral in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, each Grantor shall from time to time at the request of the Holders file or record, or cause to be filed or recorded, such instruments, documents and notices, including assignments, financing statements and continuation statements, as the Holders may reasonably deem necessary or advisable from time to time in order to perfect and continue perfected such security interest. Each Grantor shall do all such other acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other instruments and documents, including further security agreements, pledges, endorsements, assignments and notices, as the Holders in their discretion may reasonably deem necessary or advisable from time to time in order to perfect and preserve the priority of such security interest as a first lien security interest in the Collateral prior to the rights of all third persons, firms and entities, subject to the Permitted Liens and except as may be otherwise provided in this Agreement. Each Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement and may be filed instead of the original.

 

 

6.          Insurance. Risk of loss of, damage to or destruction of the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures is on each Grantor. Each Grantor shall insure the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures against such risks and casualties and in such amounts and with such insurance companies as is ordinarily carried by corporations or other entities engaged in the same or similar businesses and similarly situated or as otherwise reasonably required by the Holders in their sole discretion. In the event of loss of, damage to or destruction of the Equipment, Inventory or Fixtures during the term of this Agreement, each Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent of such loss, damage or destruction. At the reasonable request of the Holders, each Grantor’s policies of insurance shall contain loss payable clauses in favor of each Grantor and the Holders as their respective interests may appear and shall contain provision for notification of the Holders thirty (30) days prior to the termination of such policy. At the request of the Holders, copies of all such policies, or certificates evidencing the same, shall be deposited with the Holders. If any Grantor fails to effect and keep in full force and effect such insurance or fail to pay the premiums when due, the Holders may (but shall not be obligated to) do so for the account of such Grantor and add the cost thereof to the Notes. The Holders are irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of each Grantor to endorse any draft or check which may be payable to each Grantor in order to collect the proceeds of such insurance. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Holders will turn over to each Grantor the proceeds of any such insurance collected by it on the condition that each Grantor apply such proceeds either (i) to the repair of damaged Equipment, Inventory or Fixtures, or (ii) to the replacement of destroyed Equipment, Inventory or Fixtures with Equipment, Inventory or Fixtures of the same or similar type and function and of at least equivalent value (in the sole judgment of the Holders), provided such replacement Equipment, Fixtures or Inventory is made subject to the security interest created by this Agreement and constitutes a first lien security interest in the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures subject only to Permitted Liens and other security interests permitted under this Agreement, and is perfected by the filing of financing statements in the appropriate public offices and the taking of such other action as may be necessary or desirable in order to perfect and continue perfected such security interest. Any balance of insurance proceeds remaining in the possession of the Holders after payment in full of the Notes shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or its order.

 

7.          Maintenance and Repair. Each Grantor shall maintain the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures, and every portion thereof, in good condition, repair and working order, reasonable wear and tear alone excepted, and shall pay and discharge all taxes, levies and other impositions assessed or levied thereon as well as the cost of repairs to or maintenance of the same. If any Grantor fails to do so, the Holders may (but shall not be obligated to) pay the cost of such repairs or maintenance and such taxes, levies or impositions for the account of such Grantor and add the amount of such payments to the principal of the Notes

 

 

8.          Preservation of Rights against Third Parties; Preservation of Collateral in Holders’ Possession. Until such time as the Holders exercise their right to effect direct collection of the Accounts and the Chattel Paper and to effect the enforcement of each Grantor’s contract rights, each Grantor assumes full responsibility for taking any and all commercially reasonable steps to preserve rights in respect of the Accounts and the Chattel Paper and their contracts against prior parties. The Holders shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of such of the Collateral as may come into its possession from time to time if the Holders take such action for that purpose as the relevant Grantor shall request in writing, provided that such requested action shall not, in the judgment of the Holders, impair the Holders’ security interest in the Collateral or its right in, or the value of, the Collateral, and provided further that the Holders receive such written request in sufficient time to permit the Holders to take the requested action.

 

9.

Events of Default and Remedies.

 

(a)          If any one or more of the Events of Default shall occur or shall exist, the Collateral Agent may then or at any time thereafter, so long as such default shall continue, foreclose the lien or security interest in the Collateral in any way permitted by law, or upon twenty (20) days’ prior written notice to the relevant Grantor, sell any or all Collateral at private sale at any time or place in one or more sales, at such price or prices and upon such terms, either for cash or on credit, as the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect, or sell any or all Collateral at public auction, either for cash or on credit, as the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect, and at any such sale, the Collateral Agent may bid for and become the purchaser of any or all such Collateral. Pending any such action the Collateral Agent may liquidate the Collateral.

 

(b)          If any one or more of the Events of Default shall occur or shall exist, the Collateral Agent may then, or at any time thereafter, so long as such default shall continue, grant extensions to, or adjust claims of, or make compromises or settlements with, debtors, guarantors or any other parties with respect to Collateral or any securities, guarantees or insurance applying thereon, without notice to or the consent of any Grantor, without affecting each Grantor’s liability under this Agreement or the Notes. Each Grantor waives notice of acceptance, of nonpayment, protest or notice of protest of any Accounts or Chattel Paper, any of its contract rights or Collateral and any other notices to which each Grantor may be entitled.

 

(c)          If any one or more of the Events of Default shall occur or shall exist and be continuing, then in any such event, the Collateral Agent shall have such additional rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof as are provided by the Code and such other rights and remedies in respect thereof which it may have at law or in equity or under this Agreement, including without limitation the right to enter any premises where Equipment, Inventory and/or Fixtures are located and take possession and control thereof without demand or notice and without prior judicial hearing or legal proceedings, which each Grantor expressly waives.

 

(d)          The Collateral Agent shall apply the Proceeds of any sale or liquidation of the Collateral, and, subject to Section 5, any Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent from insurance, first to the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with such sale or collection, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses; second to the payment of the Notes, pro rata, whether on account of principal or interest or otherwise as the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect, and then to pay the balance, if any, to the relevant Grantor or as otherwise required by law. If such Proceeds are insufficient to pay the amounts required by law, the Grantors shall be liable for any deficiency.

 

 

(e)          Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, each Grantor shall promptly upon written demand by the Collateral Agent assemble the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures and make them available to the Holders at a place or places to be designated by the Collateral Agent. The rights of the Collateral Agent under this paragraph to have the Equipment, Inventory and Fixtures assembled and made available to it is of the essence of this Agreement and the Collateral Agent may, at its election, enforce such right by an action in equity for injunctive relief or specific performance, without the requirement of a bond.

 

10.          Defeasance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement upon the earlier of (i) payment and performance in full of the Notes or (ii) the conversion of the Notes, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and the Holders shall thereupon terminate their security interest in the Collateral. Until such time, however, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns, provided that, without the prior written consent of the Holders, no Grantor may assign this Agreement or any of its rights under this Agreement or delegate any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement and any such attempted assignment or delegation shall be null and void. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to obligate the Holders to take any action whatsoever with respect to the Collateral or to incur expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or disability of any Grantor.

 

11.

The Collateral Agent.

 

(a)          Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects with reasonable care.

 

(b)          Liability of Collateral Agent. None of the Collateral Agent Related Persons (as defined below) shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Holders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any other party, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for any failure of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Collateral Agent Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates. “Collateral Agent Related Persons” means the Collateral Agent, its shareholders, members, officers, directors, employees, agents and any successor agent arising hereunder, together with their respective affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of such persons and affiliates.

 

 

(c)          Reliance by Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Company or any Grantor), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Holders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Majority Holders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders. “Majority Holders” means at any time a Holder or Holders then holding in excess of 50% of the then aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes.

 

(d)          Notice of Default. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the delivery of any documents or certificates required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent hereunder for the benefit of the Holders, unless the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from a Holder or the Company or any Grantor referring to this Agreement, describing such default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Collateral Agent will notify the Holders of its receipt of any such notice. The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Holders in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that unless and until the Collateral Agent has received any such request, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Holders.

 

 

(e)          Indemnification of the Collateral Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents are consummated, the Holders shall indemnify upon demand the Collateral Agent Related Persons (to the extent not paid by or on behalf of the Company or any Grantor), pro rata, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as defined below); provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable for the payment to the Collateral Agent Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Holder shall reimburse the Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel) incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Company. The undertaking in this paragraph shall survive the payment of all obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Collateral Agent. “Indemnified Liabilities” means all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including fees and disbursements of legal counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Notes and the termination, resignation or replacement of the Collateral Agent) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Collateral Agent Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Collateral Agent Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this Agreement or the Notes or the other Transaction Documents or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Collateral Agent Related Person is a party thereto. The agreements in this Section 11(e) will survive the payment of all obligations under the Transaction Documents.

 

(f)          Collateral Agent in Individual Capacity. Any Collateral Agent Related Person may engage in transactions with, make loans to, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Grantor and their affiliates, including purchasing and holding Notes, as though the Collateral Agent were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Holders. The Holders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, any Collateral Agent Related Person may receive information regarding the Company or any Grantor and their affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company or any Grantor and their affiliates) and acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to any Notes it holds, a Collateral Agent Related Person shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Holder and may exercise the same as though the Collateral Agent were not the Collateral Agent, and the terms “Holder” and “Holders” include any such Collateral Agent Related Person in its individual capacity.

 

(g)          Collateral Agent’s Expenses. The reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the administration of the Collateral Agent’s duties under this Agreement shall be payable by the Company to the Collateral Agent on demand.

 

 

(h)          Successor Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may, and at the request of the Majority Holders shall, resign as Collateral Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Holders. If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Majority Holders shall appoint from among the Holders or Aegis Capital Corp. a successor agent for the Holders, which successor agent shall be approved by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Holders and the Company, a successor agent from among the Holders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Collateral Agent by the date which is 10 days following a retiring Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Holders shall perform all of the duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Holders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

 

(i)          Posting of Approved Electronic Communications. The Company hereby agrees, unless directed otherwise by the Collateral Agent, that it will provide to the Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Collateral Agent and the Holders pursuant to the Notes (collectively the “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium (including .pdfs sent via electronic mail) that is properly identified in a format acceptable to the Collateral Agent to an electronic mail address as directed by the Collateral Agent.

 

12.

Miscellaneous.

 

(a)          The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or any other provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

 

(b)          No failure or delay on the part of the Holders in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement and the Notes shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege of the Holders under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other right, remedy, power or privilege or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Holders under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they may otherwise have.

 

(c)          Unless otherwise provided herein, all demands, notices, consents, service of process, requests and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person or by overnight courier service, or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed:

 

 

If to Borrower or any other Grantor: At the address for the Company set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement

 

If to the Holder: At the address for such Holder set forth in the Holder’s signature page to the Securities Purchase Agreement or the address otherwise communicated by such Holder to the Company in writing for such notice purposes.

 

Any such notice shall be effective when delivered, if delivered by hand delivery, overnight courier service, or U.S. Mail return receipt requested.

 

(d)          The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not control or affect its construction or interpretation in any respect.

 

(e)          Unless the context otherwise requires, all terms used in this Agreement which are defined by the Code shall have the meanings stated in the Code.

 

(f)          The Code shall govern the settlement, perfection and the effect of attachment and perfection of the Holders’ security interest in the Collateral, and the rights, duties and obligations of the Holders and each Grantor with respect to the Collateral. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract under the laws of the State of New York and the execution and delivery of this Agreement and, to the extent not inconsistent with the preceding sentence, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of that State. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

(g)          This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. All of such counterparts shall be read as though one, and they shall have the same force and effect as though all the signers had signed a single page. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.
