The Shareholder will pay or cause to be paid promptly when due all taxes and assessments on the Collateral, this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, and the Note. The Shareholder may, however, withhold payment of any tax assessment or claim if a good faith dispute exists as to the obligation to pay and, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note to the contrary, the Shareholder will not have any obligation to pay taxes imposed on the income of Secured Party as a result of the transaction contemplated herein or therein or otherwise.

Section 8. Protection of Secured Party’s Security. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if the Shareholder fails to perform the covenants and agreements contained or incorporated in this Agreement or the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, as applicable, or if any action or proceeding is commenced which affects the Collateral or title thereto or the interest of the Secured Party therein, including, but not limited to insolvency or proceedings involving bankruptcy, then the Secured Party, at the Secured Party’s option, may make such appearance, disburse such sums, and take such action as the Secured Party deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to protect the Secured Party’s security interest, including but not limited to disbursement of attorneys’ fees.

Section 10. Forbearance by Secured Party Not a Waiver. Any forbearance by the Secured Party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy. The acceptance by the Secured Party of payment of any sum secured by this Agreement after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of the Secured Party’s right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes, rents or other liens or charges by the Secured Party shall not be a waiver of the Secured Party’s right to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness secured by this Agreement, nor shall the Secured Party’s receipt of any awards, proceeds or damages as provided in this Agreement operate to cure or waive the Shareholder’s default in payment of sums secured by this Agreement.
Section 11. Uniform Commercial Code Security Agreement. This Agreement is intended to be a security agreement pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code for any of the items specified above as part of the Collateral which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, and the Shareholder hereby grants the Secured Party a security interest in said items pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement. The Shareholder agrees that the Secured Party may file any appropriate document in the appropriate index as a financing statement for any of the items specified above as part of the Collateral. In addition, the Shareholder agrees to deliver to the Secured Party, upon the Secured Party’s request, any financing statements, as well as extensions, renewals and amendments thereof, and reproductions of this Agreement in such form as the Secured Party may reasonably require to perfect a security interest with respect to said items. The Shareholder shall pay all costs of filing such financing statements and any extensions, renewals, amendments, and releases thereof, and shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches for financing statements the Secured Party may reasonably require. Without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, the Shareholder shall not create or suffer to be created pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code any other security interest in the Collateral, including replacements and additions thereto. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Secured Party shall have the remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and, at the Secured Party’s option, may also invoke the other remedies provided in this Agreement as to such items. In exercising any of said remedies, the Secured Party may proceed against the items specified above as part of the Collateral separately or together and in any order whatsoever, without in any way affecting the availability of the Secured Party’s remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code or of the other remedies provided in this Agreement.

Section 13. Acceleration in Case of Shareholder’s Insolvency. If the Shareholder voluntarily files a petition under the federal Bankruptcy Act, as such Act may from time to time be amended, or under any similar or successor federal statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangements or reorganizations, or under any state bankruptcy or insolvency act, or files an answer in an involuntary proceeding admitting insolvency or inability to pay debts, or if the Shareholder is adjudged as bankrupt, or if a trustee or receiver is appointed for the Shareholder’s property, or if the Collateral becomes subject to the jurisdiction of a federal bankruptcy court or similar state court in any proceeding not dismissed within 60 days, or if the Shareholder makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or if there is an attachment, receivership, execution or other judicial seizure, then the Secured Party may, at the Secured Party’s option, declare all of the sums secured by this Agreement to be immediately due and payable without prior notice to the Shareholder, and the Secured Party may invoke any remedies permitted by this Agreement. Any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by the Secured Party in connection with the Shareholder’s bankruptcy or any of the other events described in this Section shall be additional indebtedness of the Shareholder secured by this Agreement.
Section 14. Rights of Secured Party. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Party shall have the following rights and remedies:
14.1 The Secured Party may require the Shareholder to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at the place to be designated by the Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties. The Secured Party may sell all or any part of the Collateral as a whole or in parcels either by public auction, private sale, or other method of disposition. The Secured Party may bid at any public sale on all or any portion of the Collateral. The Secured Party shall give the Shareholder reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, and notice given at least 10 days before the time of the sale or other disposition shall be conclusively presumed to be reasonable.
PAGE 4
14.2 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Secured Party shall be under no obligation to offer to sell the Collateral if it complies with Section 14.3 below. In the event the Secured Party offers to sell the Collateral, the Secured Party will be under no obligation to consummate a sale of the Collateral if, in its reasonable business judgment, none of the offers received by it reasonably approximates the fair value of the Collateral.
14.3 In the event the Secured Party elects not to sell the Collateral, the Secured Party may elect to follow the procedures set forth in the Uniform Commercial Code for retaining the Collateral in satisfaction of the Shareholder’s obligation, subject to Shareholder’s rights under such procedures.
14.4 In addition to the rights under this Agreement and the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, the Secured Party shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for the Collateral as a matter of right whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the outstanding principal amount of the Note and any receiver appointed may serve without bond. Employment by the Secured Party shall not disqualify a person from serving as receiver.
Section 15. Waiver of Marshalling. Notwithstanding the existence of any other security interest in the Collateral held by the Secured Party or by any other party, the Secured Party shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all of the Collateral shall be subjected to the remedies provided by this Agreement. The Secured Party shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all portions of the indebtedness secured by this Agreement are satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Agreement. The Shareholder, any party who consents to this Agreement, and any party who now or hereafter acquires a security interest in the Collateral and who has actual or constructive notice of this Agreement, hereby waives any and all right to require the marshalling of assets in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies permitted by applicable law or by this Agreement.
Section 16. Provisions of Agreement. All amounts due the Secured Party pursuant to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement shall be indebtedness of the Shareholder secured by this Agreement. All sums disbursed by the Secured Party following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to protect the security of this Agreement and the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement up to the principal amount of the Note shall be treated as disbursements pursuant to such Agreements. All such sums shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the rate stated in the Note, unless collection from the Shareholder of interest at such rate would be contrary to applicable law in which event such amount shall bear interest at the highest rate which may be collected from the Shareholder under applicable law. In case of an Event of Default, the Secured Party at the Secured Party’s option (i) may invoke any of the rights or remedies provided in this Agreement, (ii) may accelerate the sums secured by this Agreement, or (iii) may do both.

Section 17. Remedies Cumulative.

Section 18. No Recourse. This Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the Note are “non-recourse” against the Shareholder. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything herein, in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or in the Note to the contrary, Secured Party shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Shareholder to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Shareholder, except that Secured Party may bring a foreclosure action to enable Secured Party to enforce and realize upon the interest in the Collateral created by this Agreement; provided, however, that any judgment in any such action shall be enforceable against Shareholder only to the extent of the Collateral given to Secured Party. Secured Party, by accepting this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note agrees that it shall not xxx for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Shareholder in any such action or proceeding, under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note, Secured Party and its successors and assigns shall look solely to Shareholder’s interest in the Collateral now or at any time hereafter securing the payment and performance of the obligations of Shareholder under this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note for the payment of any claim or for any performance in connection with this Agreement, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or the Note.
