Grant of Security Interest/Remedies To secure its obligations under this Agreement and to the extent Seller delivers the Collateral Requirement, as applicable, hereunder, Seller hereby grants to Buyer, as the secured party, a first priority security interest in, and lien on (and right of setoff against), and assignment of, all such Collateral Requirement posted with Buyer in the form of cash or Letter of Credit and any and all proceeds resulting therefrom or the liquidation thereof, whether now or hereafter held by, on behalf of, or for the benefit of, Buyer. Within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Collateral Requirement, Seller agrees to take such action as Buyer reasonably requires in order to perfect a first-priority security interest in, and lien on (and right of setoff against), such Collateral Requirement and any and all proceeds resulting therefrom or from the liquidation thereof.
