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.
Excluded Collateral Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this ss.2, such grant of security interest shall not extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall not include, any chattel paper and general intangibles which are now or hereafter held by the Company as licensee, lessee or otherwise, to the extent that (i) such chattel paper and general intangibles are not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter of law or under the terms of the license, lease or other agreement applicable thereto (but solely to the extent that any such restriction shall be enforceable under applicable law), without the consent of the licensor or lessor thereof or other applicable party thereto and (ii) such consent has not been obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing grant of security interest shall extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall include, (1) any and all proceeds of such chattel paper and general intangibles to the extent that the assignment or encumbering of such proceeds is not so restricted and (2) upon any such licensor, lessor or other applicable party consent with respect to any such otherwise excluded chattel paper or general intangibles being obtained, thereafter such chattel paper or general intangibles as well as any and all proceeds thereof that might have theretofore have been excluded from such grant of a security interest and the term "Collateral."
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.
Removal of Collateral Grantor shall keep the Collateral (or to the extent the Collateral consists of intangible property such as accounts, the records concerning the Collateral) at Grantor's address shown above, or at such other locations as are acceptable to Lender.

To the extent that the Collateral consists of vehicles, or other titled property, Grantor shall not take or permit any action which would require application for certificates of title for the vehicles outside the State of California, without the prior written consent of Lender.
