German Collateral. (a) Definitions:

German Collateral. (i) Each of the Secured Parties (other than the Collateral Agent) hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as trustee (Treuhänder) and administrator for the purpose of accepting and administering the German Transaction Security for and on behalf of the other Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall: (i) hold and administer any German Transaction Security which is security assigned (Sicherungseigentum/Sicherungsabtretung) or otherwise transferred under a non-accessory security right (nichtakzessorische Sicherheit) to it as trustee (treuhänderisch) for the benefit of the Secured Parties; and (ii) administer any German Transaction Security which is pledged (Verpfändung) or otherwise transferred to any Secured Party under an accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) as agent. Each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent (whether or not by or through employees or agents): (i) to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to or conferred upon the Collateral Agent under the German Security Documents together with such powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto; (ii) to take such action on its behalf as may from time to time be authorized under or in accordance with the German Security Documents; and (iii) to accept as its representative (Stellvertreter) any pledge or other creation of any accessory security right granted in favor of such Secured Party in connection with the Secured Debt Documents and to agree to and execute on its behalf as its representative (Stellvertreter) any amendments and/or alterations to any German Security Document which creates a pledge or any other accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) including the release or confirmation of release of such Security. Each Secured Party hereby ratifies and approves all acts and declarations previously done by the Collateral Agent on such Secured Party’s behalf. (ii) For the purpose of the exercise of all rights, claims, powers and authorizations as well as the performance of all duties and obligations of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and under or in connection with the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall be released by each Secured Party (to the extent legally possible) from any restrictions on representing several persons and self-dealing under any applicable law, and in particular from the restrictions of Section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch).

German Collateral. With respect to any Collateral subject to the laws of Germany: (i) in case of non-accessory (nicht akzessorische) security rights, hold, administer and, as the case may be, enforce the Collateral in its own name, but for the account of the Beneficiaries; (ii) in case of accessory (akzessorische) security rights created by way of pledge or other accessory instruments, administer and, as the case may be, enforce the Collateral in the name and for and on behalf of the Beneficiaries or in its own name on the basis of an Abstract Acknowledgement of Debt and/or the Parallel Debt and/or any other guarantee granted to the Collateral Agent for such purposes but in each case for the account of the Beneficiaries; and (iii) for the purposes of performing its rights and obligations as Collateral Agent hereunder, each of the Beneficiaries hereby authorises the Collateral Agent to act as its agent (Stellvertreter), and releases the Collateral Agent from the restrictions imposed by Section 181 German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) (and any equivalent restriction under any applicable other laws). This power also includes the power and authority of the Collateral Agent to enter, also on behalf of the Beneficiaries and the Secured Parties as parties thereto, into a security trust and agency agreement with respect to the Collateral that is subject to German law and/or the German Collateral Documents with the Credit Parties, and to subsequently amend, restate, change, extend or terminate such security trust and agency agreement. At the request of the Collateral Agent, each of the Beneficiaries shall provide the Collateral Agent with a separate written power of attorney (Spezialvollmacht) for the purposes of executing any relevant agreements and documents on their behalf.

Security Interests in Collateral To secure their Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Loan Parties shall grant to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the other Secured Parties, a first-priority security interest in all of the Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents.
Security Interest in Collateral The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents create legal and valid Liens on all of the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Secured Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except in the case of (a) Permitted Encumbrances, to the extent any such Permitted Encumbrances would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to any applicable law or agreement and (b) Liens perfected only by possession (including possession of any certificate of title) to the extent the Administrative Agent has not obtained or does not maintain possession of such Collateral.
Rights in Collateral; Priority of Liens Borrower and each other Loan Party own the property granted by it as Collateral under the Collateral Documents, free and clear of any and all Liens in favor of third parties. Upon the proper filing of UCC financing statements, and the taking of the other actions required by the Required Lenders, the Liens granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents will constitute valid and enforceable first, prior and perfected Liens on the Collateral in favor of Agent, for the ratable benefit of Agent and Lenders.
Proceeds of Collateral Borrowers shall request in writing and otherwise take all necessary steps to ensure that all payments on Accounts or otherwise relating to Collateral are made directly to a Dominion Account (or a lockbox relating to a Dominion Account). If any Borrower or Subsidiary receives cash or Payment Items with respect to any Collateral, it shall hold same in trust for Agent and promptly (not later than the next Business Day) deposit same into a Dominion Account.
Possessory Collateral Immediately upon Borrower's receipt of any portion of the Collateral evidenced by an agreement, Instrument or Document, including, without limitation, any Tangible Chattel Paper and any Investment Property consisting of certificated securities, Borrower shall deliver the original thereof to Lender together with an appropriate endorsement or other specific evidence of assignment thereof to Lender (in form and substance acceptable to Lender). If an endorsement or assignment of any such items shall not be made for any reason, Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Borrower's attorney and agent-in-fact, to endorse or assign the same on Borrower's behalf.
Disposition of Collateral Such Grantor will not sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral owned by it except for dispositions specifically permitted pursuant to Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement.
Collateral Each of the Banks represents to the Agent and each of the other Banks that it in good faith is not relying upon any "margin stock" (as defined in Regulation U) as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.
Compromises and Collection of Collateral The Grantors and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.
Remedies; Disposition of the Collateral If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then any Collateral repossessed by the Collateral Agent under or pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Collateral Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Collateral Agent or after any overhaul or repair at the expense of the relevant Assignor which the Collateral Agent shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Any such disposition which shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such requirements shall be made upon not less than 10 days' prior written notice to the relevant Assignor specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the 10 days after the giving of such notice, to the right of the relevant Assignor or any nominee of such Assignor to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified. Any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by such requirements shall be made upon not less than 10 days' prior written notice to the relevant Assignor specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable requirements of law, shall be by public auction (which may, at the Collateral Agent's option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction (where required by applicable law) not less than 10 days prior thereto. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Collateral Agent may bid for and become the purchaser of the Collateral or any item thereof, offered for sale in accordance with this Section without accountability to the relevant Assignor. If, under mandatory requirements of applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall be required to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the relevant Assignor as hereinabove specified, the Collateral Agent need give such Assignor only such notice of disposition as shall be reasonably practicable in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law. Each Assignor agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at such Assignor's expense.
Security Interest and Collateral To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, Borrower hereby grants Lender a security interest (herein called the "Security Interest") in the following Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower and wherever located, and all products and proceeds thereof: (a) Crops, whether annual or perennial, whether grown, growing or to be grown, and whether harvested or unharvested, the products and proceeds thereof and stored grain (including all of the foregoing designated as inventory) and any negotiable or nonnegotiable documents, scale tickets and the like resulting from the storage thereof; also seed, fertilizer, chemicals, and other supplies used or produced by Borrower in farming operations; also accounts, contract rights (including proceeds from insurance policies covering the other Collateral), instruments, documents and general intangibles, whether now owned or hereafter acquired and wherever located; hedging and commodity accounts or agreements, now or hereafter or in effect, together with all rights in and to such accounts or agreements and all payments due or to become due thereunder.

(c) All of Borrower’s equipment and machinery, and all accessions and attachments thereto and replacements and substitutions therefore (the Equipment). Borrower shall not remove any of the Collateral from locations disclosed in this Agreement, nor sell, convey or encumber said Collateral, provided, however, that Borrower may sell said Collateral or any part thereof if, and only if: (i) the proceeds of such sale are made payable jointly to Lender and Borrower if requested by Xxxxxx, it being specifically understood and agreed that all Obligations secured by the Collateral to the extent of the sale price shall be due and payable at the time of such sale; and (ii) Borrower sells the Collateral only to buyers listed on the Credit Application if required pursuant to the terms of Subsection 2(c) below.
