ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Grantor represents and warrants that:

Section 3.1Validity of Security Agreement; Consents. The execution, delivery and performance of this Security Agreement and the creation of the security interests provided for herein (i) are within the Grantor’s limited liability company power, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action, including the consent of interest holders where required, on behalf of the Grantor, (iii) are not in contravention of any provision of the Grantor’s certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement, (iv) do not violate any law or regulation or any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality applicable to the Grantor, (v) do not conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease, agreement or other instrument to which the Grantor is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, (vi) do not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of the Grantor other than in favor of the Secured Party and (vii) do not require the consent or approval of any governmental body, agency or

official or other person other than those that have been obtained. This Security Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Grantor and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Grantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable Bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally and by general provisions of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 3.2Title to Collateral. Except for the security interests granted to the Secured Party pursuant to this Security Agreement, the Grantor is the sole owner of each item of the Collateral, having good and marketable title thereto, free and clear of any and all Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

Section 3.3Validity, Perfection and Priority of Security Interests.

(a) By complying with Section 4.1, the Grantor will have created a valid security interest in favor of the Secured Party in all existing Collateral and in all identifiable Proceeds of such Collateral, which security interest (except in respect of motor vehicles for which the exclusive manner of perfecting a security interest therein is by noting such security interest in the certificate of title in accordance with local law) would be prior to the claims of a trustee in bankruptcy under Section 544(a) of the United States federal bankruptcy Code. Continuing compliance by the Grantor with the provisions of Section 4.2 will also (i) create valid security interests in all Collateral acquired after the date hereof and in all identifiable Proceeds of such Collateral and (ii) cause such security interests in all Collateral and in all Proceeds which are (A) identifiable cash Proceeds of Collateral covered by financing statements required to be filed hereunder and (B) identifiable Proceeds in which a security interest may be perfected by such filing under the UCC, in each case prior to the claims of a trustee in Bankruptcy under the United States federal Bankruptcy Code.

(b) Other than financing statements or other similar documents evidencing Permitted Liens, no financing statements, deeds of trust, mortgages or similar documents covering all or any part of the Collateral are on file or of record in any government office in any jurisdiction in which such filing or recording would be effective to perfect a security interest in such Collateral, nor is any of the Collateral in the possession of any Person (other than the Grantor and the Senior Lender) asserting any claim thereto or security interest therein.

Section 3.4Enforceability of Receivables and Other Intangibles. To the best knowledge of the Grantor, each Receivable and Other Intangible is a valid and binding obligation of the related Account Debtor in respect thereof, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general provisions of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and complies with any applicable legal requirements.

Section 3.5Place of Business; Location of Collateral. Schedule 1 correctly sets forth the offices of the Grantor where records concerning Receivables and Other Intangibles are

kept. Schedule 2 correctly sets forth the location of all Equipment and Inventory, other than rolling stock, aircraft, goods in transit and Inventory sold in the ordinary course of business as permitted by Section 4.13 of this Security Agreement. All Inventory has been and will be produced in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 201-219. No Inventory is evidenced by a negotiable document of title, warehouse receipt or xxxx of lading. No non-negotiable document of title, warehouse receipt or xxxx of lading has been issued to any person other than the Grantor, and the Grantor has retained possession of all of such non-negotiable documents, warehouse receipts and bills of lading. No amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral is evidenced by promissory notes or other instruments.

Section 3.6Patents and Trademarks. As of the date hereof the Grantor does not have any patents, patent licenses, trademarks or trademarks licenses.

ARTICLE IV

The Grantor will in no event change the location of any Collateral if such change would cause the security interest granted hereby in such Collateral to lapse or cease to be perfected. The Grantor will not change the state in which it is incorporated.

Section 4.5Fixtures. The Grantor will not permit any Equipment to become a fixture unless it shall have given the Secured Party at least ten days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have taken all such action and delivered or caused to be delivered to the Secured Party all instruments and documents, including, without limitation, waivers and subordination agreements by any landlords and mortgagees, and filed all financing statements necessary or reasonably requested by the Secured Party, to preserve and protect the security interest granted herein and to effectuate or maintain the priority thereof against all Persons, subject to Permitted Liens.

Agreement and the security interests granted hereby. For the Secured Party’s further security, the Grantor agrees that the Secured Party shall have a special property interest in all of the Grantor’s books and records pertaining to the Collateral and the Grantor shall deliver and turn over any such books and records to the Secured Party or to its representatives at any time on demand of the Secured Party.

Section 4.7Compliance with Laws, etc. The Grantor will comply, in all material respects, with all acts, rules, regulations, orders, decrees and directions of any governmental body, agency or official applicable to the Collateral or any part thereof or to the operation of the Grantor’s business except to the extent that the failure to comply would not have a material adverse effect on the financial or other condition of the Grantor; provided, however, that the Grantor may contest any act, regulation, order, decree or direction in any reasonable manner which shall not in the sole opinion of the Secured Party adversely affect the Secured Party’s rights or the priority of its security interest in the Collateral.

Section 4.8Payment of Taxes, etc. The Grantor will pay promptly when due, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Collateral or in respect of its income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims of any kind (including claims for labor, materials and supplies), except that no such charge need be paid if (i) the validity thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and (ii) such charge is adequately reserved against in accordance with GAAP.

Section 4.9Compliance with Terms of Accounts, Contracts and Licenses. The Grantor will perform and comply in all material respects with all of its obligations under and, all agreements relating to the Collateral to which it is a party or by which it is bound.

Section 4.11Limitations on Modifications of Receivables and Other Intangibles; No Waivers or Extensions. The Grantor will not (i) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of any material Receivable or Other Intangible in any manner which might have a materially adverse effect on the value of such Receivable or Other Intangible as Collateral, (ii) fail to exercise promptly and diligently each and every material right which it may have under each Receivable and Other Intangible or (iii) fail to deliver to the Secured Party a copy of each material demand, notice or document received by it relating in any way to any Receivable or Other Intangible. The Grantor will not, without the Secured Party’s prior written consent, grant any extension of the time of payment of any Receivable or amounts due under any material Other Intangible, compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any person liable for the payment thereof or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon other than trade discounts granted in the normal course of business, except such as in the reasonable judgment of the Grantor are advisable to enhance the collectibility thereof.

Section 4.12Maintenance of Insurance. The Grantor will maintain with financially sound insurance companies licensed to do business in Texas insurance policies (i) insuring the Inventory and Equipment against loss by fire, explosion, theft and such other casualties as are usually insured against by companies engaged in the same or similar business for an amount satisfactory to the Secured Party and (ii) insuring the Grantor and the Secured Party against liability for personal injury arising from, and property damage relating to, such Inventory and Equipment, such policies to be in such form and to cover such amounts as may be satisfactory to the Secured Party, with losses payable to the Grantor and the Secured Party as their respective interests may appear. The Grantor shall, if so requested by the Secured Party, deliver to the Secured Party as often as the Secured Party may reasonably request a report of the Grantor or, if requested by the Secured Party, of an insurance broker satisfactory to the Secured Party of the insurance on the Inventory and Equipment. All insurance with respect to the Inventory and the Equipment shall (i) contain a standard mortgagee clause in favor of the Secured Party, (ii) provide that any loss shall be payable in accordance with the terms thereof notwithstanding any act of the Grantor which might otherwise result in forfeiture of such insurance and that the insurer waives all rights of set-off, counterclaim, deduction or subrogation against the Grantor, (iii) provide that no cancellation, reduction in amount or change in coverage therefor shall be effective until at least 30 days after receipt by the Secured Party of written notice thereof and (iv) provide that the Secured Party may, but shall not be obligated to, pay premiums in respect thereof.

The Grantor will not directly or indirectly (through the sale of company interest, merger or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Secured Party sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, or attempt, offer or contract to do so except for (i) sales of Inventory in the ordinary course of its business for fair value in arm’s-length transactions and (ii) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, dispositions in a commercially reasonable manner of Equipment which has become redundant, worn out or obsolete or which should be replaced so as to improve productivity, so long as the proceeds of any such disposition are (i) used to acquire replacement equipment which has comparable or better utility and equivalent or better value and which is subject to a security interest in favor of the Secured Party therein, except as permitted by Section 4.9 and except for Permitted Liens or (ii) applied to repay the Obligations. The inclusion of Proceeds of the Collateral under the security interests granted hereby shall not be deemed a consent by the Secured Party to any sale or disposition of any Collateral other than as permitted by this Section 4.13.

Section 5.1UCC Rights. lf any Event of Default shall have occurred, the Secured Party may in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Security Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and all other rights available to the Secured Party at law or in equity.

Section 5.2Payments on Collateral. Without limiting the rights of the Secured Party under any other provision of this Security Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing:

(i) all payments received by the Grantor under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be held by the Grantor in trust for the Secured Party, shall be segregated from other funds of the Grantor and shall forthwith upon receipt by the Grantor be turned over to the Secured Party, in the same form as received by the Grantor (duly indorsed by the Grantor to the Secured Party, if required to permit collection thereof by the Secured Party); and

(ii) all such payments received by the Secured Party (whether from the Grantor or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of the Secured Party, be held by the

Secured Party as collateral security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied in whole or in part by the Secured Party to the payment of the expenses and Obligations as set forth in Section 5.10.

Section 5.3Possession of Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Grantor expressly agrees that, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Secured Party may (i) by judicial powers, or without judicial process if it can be done without breach of the peace, enter any premises where any of such Collateral is or may be located, and without charge or liability to the Secured Party seize and remove such Collateral from such premises and (ii) have access to and use of the Grantor’s books and records relating to such Collateral.

Section 5.4Sale of Collateral.

(a) The Grantor expressly agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of the time and place of any public or private sale) to the Grantor or any other Person (all of which demands and/or notices are hereby waived by the Grantor), may forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral and/or forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so) or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any office of the Secured Party or elsewhere in such manner as is commercially reasonable and as the Secured Party may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold. The Grantor further agrees, at the Secured Party’s request, to assemble the Collateral, and to make it available to the Secured Party at places which the Secured Party may reasonably select. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands against the Secured Party arising out of the foreclosure, repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral.

(b) Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market, the Secured Party shall give the Grantor ten days’ written notice of its intention to make any such public or private sale or sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange. Such notice shall (i) in the case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (ii) in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or any portion thereof being sold, will first be offered for sale and (iii) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated. The Secured Party shall not be required or obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Secured Party may 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 same may be so adjourned. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral for credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Secured Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Secured Party shall not incur any liability in case of failure of such purchaser to pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.

Section 5.5Rights of Purchasers

. Upon any sale of the Collateral (whether public or private), the Secured Party shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser (including the Secured Party) at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold free from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Grantor, and the Grantor, to the extent permitted by law, hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, including, without limitation, the right to redeem the Collateral under Sections 9-623 and 9-624 of the UCC, and any right to a judicial or other stay or approval which it has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted.

Section 5.6Additional Rights of the Secured Party.

(a) The Secured Party shall have the right and power to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem appropriate to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Security Agreement and may proceed by suit or suits at law or in equity to enforce such rights and to foreclose upon and sell the Collateral or any part thereof pursuant to the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) The Secured Party shall, to the extent permitted by law and without regard to the solvency or insolvency at the time of any Person then liable for the payment of any of the Obligations or the then value of the Collateral, and without requiring any bond from any party to such proceedings, be entitled to the appointment of a special receiver or receivers (who may be the Secured Party) for the Collateral or any part thereof and for the rents, issues, tolls, profits, royalties, revenues and other income therefrom, which receiver shall have such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, and to the entry of an order directing that the rents, issues, tolls, profits, royalties, revenues and other income of the property constituting the whole or any part of the Collateral be segregated, sequestered and impounded for the benefit of the Secured Party, and the Grantor irrevocably consents to the appointment of such receiver or receivers and to the entry of such order.

Section 5.7Remedies Not Exclusive.

(a) No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Secured Party in this Security Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, but every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy conferred herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute.

(b) If the Secured Party shall have proceeded to enforce any right, remedy or power under this Security Agreement and the proceeding for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Secured Party, the Grantor and the Secured Party shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, severally and respectively be restored to their former positions and rights under this Security Agreement, and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the Secured Party shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

(c) All rights of action under this Security Agreement may be enforced by the Secured Party without the possession of any instrument evidencing any Obligation or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any suit or proceeding

instituted by the Secured Party shall be brought in its name and any judgment shall be held as part of the Collateral.

Section 5.8Waiver and Estoppel.

(a) The Grantor, to the extent it may lawfully do so, agrees that it will not at any time in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium, turnover or redemption law, or any law now or hereafter in force permitting it to direct the order in which the Collateral shall be sold which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this Security Agreement and the Grantor hereby waives the benefits or advantage of all such laws, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Secured Party in this Security Agreement but will permit the execution of every such power as though no such law were in force; provided that nothing contained in this Section 5.8 shall be construed as a waiver of any rights of the Grantor under any applicable federal bankruptcy law.

(b) The Grantor, to the extent it may lawfully do so, on behalf of itself and all who may claim through or under it, including without limitation any and all subsequent creditors, vendees, assignees and lienors, waives and releases all rights to demand or to have any marshalling of the Collateral upon any sale, whether made under any power of sale granted herein or pursuant to judicial proceedings or upon any foreclosure or any enforcement of this Security Agreement and consents and agrees that all the Collateral may at any such sale be offered and sold as an entirety.

(c) The Grantor, to the extent it may lawfully do so, waives presentment, demand, protest and any notice of any kind (except notices explicitly required hereunder) in connection with this Security Agreement and any action taken by the Secured Party with respect to the Collateral.

Section 5.9Power of Attorney. The Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Grantor and in the name of the Grantor or in its own name, from time to time in the Secured Party’s reasonable discretion for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Security Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right, on behalf of the Grantor, without notice to or assent by the Grantor to do the following:

(i) to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

(ii) to effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Security Agreement and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof; and

(iii) upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default and otherwise to the extent provided in this Security Agreement, (A) to direct any party liable

for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due and to come due thereunder directly to the Secured Party or as the Secured Party shall direct; (B) to receive payment of and receipt for any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) to sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts and other documents relating to the Collateral; (D) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (E) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (F) to settle, compromise and adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Secured Party may deem appropriate; (G) to assign any patent or trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which such trademark pertains), for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Secured Party shall in its sole discretion determine; and (H) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Secured Party’s option and the Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party’s security interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the Grantor might do.

The Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

Section 5.10Application of Proceeds. The Secured Party shall retain the net proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale of the Collateral and, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care and safekeeping of any or all of the Collateral or in any way relating to the rights of the Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, apply such net proceeds to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations in such order as the Secured Party may elect, the Grantor remaining liable for any amount remaining unpaid (and any attorneys fees paid by the Secured Party in collecting such deficiency) after such application. Only after applying such net proceeds and after the payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Sections 9-610 and 9-615 of the UCC, need the Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to the same.
