16. Collections, etc. Until such time, during the existence of a Default, as the
Agent shall notify the Company of the revocation of such power and authority,
the Company (a) may, in the ordinary course of its business, at its own expense,
sell, lease or furnish under contracts of service any of the Inventory normally
held by the Company for such purpose, use and consume, in the ordinary course of
its business, any raw materials, work in process or materials normally held by
the Company for such purpose, and use, in the ordinary course of its business
(but subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement), the cash proceeds of
Collateral and other money which constitutes Collateral, (b) will, at its own
expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due, all amounts due under any of the
Non-Tangible Collateral, including the taking of such action with respect to
such collection as the Agent may reasonably request or, in the absence of such
request, as the Company may deem advisable, and (c) may grant, in the ordinary
course of business, to any party obligated on any of the Non-Tangible
Collateral, any rebate, refund or allowance to which such party may be lawfully
entitled, and may accept, in connection therewith, the return of Goods, the sale
or lease of which shall have given rise to such Non-Tangible Collateral. The
Agent, however, may, at any time that a Default exists, whether before or after
any revocation of such power and authority or the maturity of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, notify any parties obligated on any of the Non-Tangible
Collateral to make payment to the Agent of any amounts due or to become due
thereunder and enforce collection of any of the Non-Tangible Collateral by suit
or otherwise and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or
compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the
original period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby. Upon the
request of the Agent during the existence of a Default, the Company will, at its
own expense, notify any or all parties obligated on any of the Non-Tangible
Collateral to make payment to the Agent of any amounts due or to become due
thereunder.
17. Upon request by the Agent during the existence of a Default, the Company
will forthwith, upon receipt, transmit and deliver to the Agent, in the form
received, all cash, checks, drafts and other instruments or writings for the
payment of money (properly endorsed, where required, so that such items may be
collected by the Agent) which may be received by the Company at any time in full
or partial payment or otherwise as proceeds of any of the Collateral. Except as
the Agent may otherwise consent in writing, any such items which may be so
received by the Company will not be commingled with any other of its funds or
property, but will be held separate and apart from its own funds or property and
upon express trust for the Agent until delivery is made to the Agent. The
Company will comply with the terms and conditions of any consent given by the
Agent pursuant to the foregoing sentence.
18. During the existence of a Default, all items or amounts which are delivered
by the Company to the Agent on account of partial or full payment or otherwise
as proceeds of any of the Collateral shall be deposited to the credit of a
deposit account (each an "Assignee Deposit Account") of the Company with Agent
(or another financial institution selected by the Agent) over which the Agent
has sole dominion and control, as security for payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations. The Company shall have no right to withdraw any funds deposited in
the applicable Assignee Deposit Account. The Agent may, from time to time, in
its discretion, and shall upon request of the applicable Company made not more
than once in any week, apply all or any of the then balance, representing
collected funds, in the Assignee Deposit Account toward payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order of application as
the Agent may determine, and the Agent may, from time to time, in its
discretion, release all or any of such balance to the Company.
19. The Agent (or any designee of the Agent) is authorized to endorse, in the
name of the Company, any item, howsoever received by the Agent, representing any
payment on or other proceeds of any of the Collateral.
20. Certificates, Schedules and Reports. The Company will from time to time, as
the Agent may request, deliver to the Agent such schedules, certificates and
reports respecting all or any of the Collateral at the time subject to the
security interest hereunder, and the items or amounts received by the Company in
full or partial payment of any of the Collateral, as the Agent may reasonably
request. Any such schedule, certificate or report shall be executed by a duly
authorized officer of the Company and shall be in such form and detail as the
Agent may specify. The Company shall immediately notify the Agent of the
occurrence of any event causing any loss or depreciation in the value of its
Inventory or other Goods which is material to the Company and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole, and such notice shall specify the amount of such loss or
depreciation.
21. Agreements of the Company. The Company (a) will, upon request of the Agent,
execute such financing statements and other documents (and pay the cost of
filing or recording the same in all public offices reasonably deemed appropriate
by the Agent) and do such other acts and things (including, delivery to the
Agent of any Instruments or Certificated Securities which constitute
Collateral), all as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request, to
establish and maintain a valid security interest in the Collateral (free of all
other liens, claims and rights of third parties whatsoever, other than Permitted
Liens) to secure the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (b) will keep all
its Inventory at, and will not maintain any place of business at any location
other than, its address(e's) shown on Schedules I and II hereto or at such other
addresses of which the Company shall have given the Agent not less than 10 days'
prior written notice, (c) will keep its records concerning the Non-Tangible
Collateral in such a manner as will enable the Agent or its designees to
determine at any time the status of the Non-Tangible Collateral; (d) will
furnish the Agent such information concerning the Company, the Collateral and
the Account Debtor's as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request; (e)
will permit the Agent and its designees, from time to time, on reasonable notice
and at reasonable times and intervals during normal business hours (or at any
time without notice during the existence of a Default) to inspect the Company's
Inventory and other Goods, and to inspect, audit and make copies of and extracts
from all records and other papers in the possession of the Company pertaining to
the Collateral and the Account Debtors, and will, upon request of the Agent
during the existence of a Default, deliver to the Agent all of such records and
papers; (f) will, upon request of the Agent, stamp on its records concerning the
Collateral, and add on all Chattel Paper constituting a portion of the
Collateral, a notation, in form satisfactory to the Agent, of the security
interest of the Agent hereunder; (g) except for the sale or lease of Inventory
in the ordinary course of its business and sales of Equipment which is no longer
useful in its business or which is being replaced by similar Equipment, will not
sell, lease, assign or create or permit to exist any Lien on any Collateral
other than Permitted Liens; (h) without limiting the provisions of Section 10.3
of the Credit Agreement, will at all times keep all of its Inventory and other
Goods insured under policies maintained with reputable, financially sound
insurance companies against loss, damage, theft and other risks to such extent
as is customarily maintained by companies similarly situated, and cause all such
policies to provide that loss thereunder shall be payable to the Agent as its
interest may appear (it being understood that (A) so long as no Default shall be
existing, the Agent shall deliver any proceeds of such insurance which may be
received by it to the Company and (B) whenever a Default shall be existing, the
Agent may apply any proceeds of such insurance which may be received by it
toward payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not due, in such order
of application as the Agent may determine), and such policies or certificates
thereof shall, if the Agent so requests, be deposited with or furnished to the
Agent; (i) will take such actions as are reasonably necessary to keep its
Inventory in good repair and condition; (j) will take such actions as are
reasonably necessary to keep its Equipment in good repair and condition and in
good working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted; (k) will promptly pay when
due all license fees, registration fees, taxes, assessments and other charges
which may be levied upon or assessed against the ownership, operation,
possession, maintenance or use of its Equipment and other Goods; (l) will, upon
request of the Agent, (i) cause to be noted on the applicable certificate, in
the event any of its Equipment is covered by a certificate of title, the
security interest of the Agent in the Equipment covered thereby, and (ii)
deliver all such certificates to the Agent or its designees; (m) will take all
steps reasonably necessary to protect, preserve and maintain all of its rights
in the Collateral; (n) except as listed on Schedule V, will keep all of the
tangible Collateral in the United States; and (o) will reimburse the Agent for
all expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees and charges (including time
charges of attorneys who are employees of the Agent), incurred by the Agent in
seeking to collect or enforce any rights in respect of the Company's Collateral.
22. Any expenses incurred in protecting, preserving or maintaining any
Collateral shall be borne by the Company. Whenever a Default shall be existing,
the Agent shall have the right to bring suit to enforce any or all of the
Intellectual Property or licenses thereunder, in which event the Company shall
at the request of the Agent do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all
proper documents required by the Agent in aid of such enforcement and the
Company shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Agent for all
costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in the exercise of its rights under
this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent shall have no
obligation or liability regarding the Collateral or any thereof by reason of, or
arising out of, this Agreement.
23. Default. Whenever a Default shall be existing, the Agent may exercise from
time to time any right or remedy available to it under applicable law. The
Company agrees, in case of Default, (i) to assemble, at its expense, all its
Inventory and other Goods (other than Fixtures) at a convenient place or places
acceptable to the Agent, and (ii) at the Agent's request, to execute all such
documents and do all such other things which may be necessary or desirable in
order to enable the Agent or its nominee to be registered as owner of the
Intellectual Property with any competent registration authority. Any
notification of intended disposition of any of the Collateral required by law
shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if given at least ten days before
such disposition. Any proceeds of any disposition by the Agent of any of the
Collateral may be applied by the Agent to payment of expenses in connection with
the Collateral, including reasonable attorney's fees and charges (including time
charges of attorneys who are employees of the Agent), and any balance of such
proceeds may be applied by the Agent toward the payment of such of the
Guaranteed Obligations, and in such order of application, as the Agent may from
time to time elect.
24. General. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the
custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession if it takes
such action for that purpose as the Company requests in writing, but failure of
the Agent to comply with any such request shall not of itself be deemed a
failure to exercise reasonable care, and no failure of the Agent to preserve or
protect any right with respect to such Collateral against prior parties, or to
do any act with respect to the preservation of such Collateral not so requested
by the Company, shall be deemed of itself a failure to exercise reasonable care
in the custody or preservation of such Collateral.
25. Any notice from the Agent to the Company, if mailed, shall be deemed given
five days after the date mailed, postage prepaid, addressed to the Company
either at the Company's address shown on Schedule I hereto or at such other
address as the Company shall have specified in writing to the Agent as its
address for notices hereunder.
26. The Company agrees to pay all expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees
and charges (including time charges of attorneys who are employees of the Agent)
paid or incurred by the Agent in endeavoring to collect the Guaranteed
Obligations of the Company, or any part thereof, and in enforcing this Agreement
against the Company, and such obligations will themselves be Guaranteed
Obligations.
27. No delay on the part of the Agent in the exercise of any right or remedy
shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the
Agent of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right or remedy.
28. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed
Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated. If at
any time all or any part of any payment theretofore applied by the Agent to any
of the Guaranteed Obligations is or must be rescinded or returned by the Agent
for any reason whatsoever (including the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Company), such Guaranteed Obligations shall, for the
purposes of this Agreement, to the extent that such payment is or must be
rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding
such application by the Agent, and this Agreement shall continue to be effective
or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such Guaranteed Obligations, all as
though such application by the Agent had not been made.
29. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the
laws of the State of Illinois applicable to contracts made and to be performed
entirely within such State, subject, however, to the applicability of the UCC of
any jurisdiction in which any Goods of the Company may be located at any given
time or as otherwise restricted by the UCC. Whenever possible, each provision of
this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited
by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of
such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
30. The rights and privileges of the Agent hereunder shall inure to the benefit
of its successors and assigns.
31. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, and each such counterpart
shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute one and the same Agreement. At any time after the date of this
Agreement, one or more additional Persons may become parties hereto by executing
and delivering to the Agent a counterpart of this Agreement together with
supplements to the Schedules hereto setting forth all relevant information with
respect to such party as of the date of such delivery. Immediately upon such
execution and delivery (and without any further action), each such additional
Person will become a party to, and will be bound by all the terms of, this
Agreement.
32. ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED
EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS OR IN THE UNITED STATES
DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS; PROVIDED THAT ANY SUIT
SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT
THE AGENT'S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR
OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. THE COMPANY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY
SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND OF THE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS FOR THE
PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE. THE COMPANY FURTHER
IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE
PREPAID, TO THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ON SCHEDULE I HERETO (OR SUCH OTHER ADDRESS AS
IT SHALL HAVE SPECIFIED IN WRITING TO THE AGENT AS ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES
HEREUNDER) OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. THE
COMPANY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED
BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE
OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM
THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.
33. THE COMPANY AND THE AGENT HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ANY
NOTE, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR
AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION
HEREWITH OR THEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY FINANCING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN
CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE FOREGOING, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.
34. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the priorities and agreements
herein contained continue to apply after the enactment by the various States of
Revised Article 9--Secured Transactions (with conforming amendments to Articles
1, 2, 2a, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8) to the UCC as approved by The American Law Institute
in 1998 and approved and recommended for enactment in all the States by the
National Conference of Commissioners for Uniform State Laws in 1998 ("Revised
Article 9") and the effectiveness of Revised Article 9 in any State. After the
effectiveness of Revised Article 9 in any State governing perfection and the
effect of perfection or non-perfection of a security interest in any Collateral,
as to such State and such Collateral, (i) all section references herein to, and
all defined terms used herein defined in, Article 9 of the UCC as currently in
effect shall be deemed to be to any corresponding Section or definition of
Revised Article 9, and (ii) if any definition used herein by reference to
Revised Article 9 is broader than the corresponding definition used in current
Article 9 of the UCC, such broader definition will apply herein.
