upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to
notify
the account debtors or obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such
Accounts
to the Collateral Agent and to direct such account debtors or obligors to make
payment
of all amounts due or to become due to the Company thereunder directly to the
Collateral
Agent or its designated agent and, upon such notification and at the expense
of
the
Company and to the extent permitted by law, to enforce collection of any such
Accounts
and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same
manner and to the same extent as may Grantor might have done. After receipt
by
the Company of a notice from the Collateral Agent that the Collateral Agent
has
notified, intends
to notify, or has enforced or intends to enforce the Company's rights against
the account debtors or obligors under any Accounts as referred to in the proviso
to the immediately
preceding sentence, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so
long
as
an Event of Default shall be continuing, (A) all amounts and proceeds (including
Instruments)
received by the Company in respect of the Accounts shall be received in trust
for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from
other funds of the Company and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral
Agent in the same
form
as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash collateral
and
either (i) credited to the outstanding obligations so long as no Event of
Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing,
applied as specified in Section
7(b) hereof,
and (B) the Company will adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment
of
any Account or release wholly or partly any
account debtor or obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon.
In
addition,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Collateral
Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) direct any or all of the banks
and
financial institutions with which the Company either maintains a Deposit Account
or a
lockbox
or deposits the proceeds of any Accounts to send immediately to the Collateral
Agent
by
wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent shall specify, or in
such
other
manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct) all or a portion of such
securities, cash, investments
and other items held by such institution; provided, that if Collateral Agent
shall
give such a notice it shall, upon notification and verification of the
discontinuance of
the
applicable Event of Default, promptly give a notice to each such bank and
financial institution
that it should no longer send any such securities, cash, investments or other
items
to
the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall return all such items theretofore
received
(except to the extent properly applied against the Obligations) to the Company.
Subject
to the preceding sentence, any such securities, cash, investments and other
items so
received by the Collateral Agent shall be applied as specified in accordance
with Section
7 hereof.
(iii)
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any breach or default
under
any
material License referred to in Schedule
II hereto
by
any party thereto other than
the
Company, the Company will, promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, give
the
Collateral Agent written notice of the nature and duration thereof, specifying
what action,
if any, it has taken and proposes to take with respect thereto and thereafter
will take
reasonable steps to protect and preserve its rights and remedies in respect
of
such breach
or
default, or will obtain or acquire an appropriate substitute License if
reasonably necessary
in the continued conduct of the Company’s business as theretofore
conducted.
11
(iv) The
Company will, at its expense, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent
a
copy of
each notice or other communication received by it by which any other party
to
any
material License referred to in Schedule
II hereto
purports to exercise any of its rights
or
affect any of its obligations thereunder, together with a copy of any reply
by
the Company
thereto.
(v) The
Company will exercise promptly and diligently each and every right which it
may
have under each material License (other than any right of termination) and
will
duly perform and observe in all respects all of its obligations under each
material License
and will take all action reasonably necessary to maintain such Licenses in
full
force
and
effect.
(g) |
Transfers
and Other Liens.
|
(i) The
Company will sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise), lease, license,
exchange or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Collateral, except
(A)
Inventory
in the ordinary course of business, (B) damaged, worn-out or obsolete assets
not
necessary to the business and (C) other assets not exceeding, individually
or in
the aggregate,
$25,000.
(ii) The
Company will create, suffer to exist or grant any Lien upon or with respect
to any Collateral other than Permitted Liens.
(h) |
Intellectual
Property.
|
12
(i)
If
applicable, the Company shall, upon the Collateral Agent's written request,
duly execute and deliver the applicable Assignment for Security in the form
attached
hereto as Exhibit
A. The
Company (either itself or through licensees) will, and will
cause each licensee thereof to, take all commercially reasonable action
necessary to maintain all of the Intellectual Property material to the Company
in full force and effect, including,
without limitation, using the proper statutory notices and markings and using
the
Trademarks on each applicable trademark class of goods in order to so maintain
the Trademarks
in full force and free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, and the
Company
will not (nor permit any licensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit
to do
any
act
whereby any Intellectual Property may become invalidated; provided,
however, that
so
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall
have
an
obligation to use or to maintain any Intellectual Property (A) that relates
solely to any product or work, that has been, or is in the process of being,
discontinued, abandoned or
terminated, (B) that is being replaced with Intellectual Property substantially
similar to the
Intellectual Property that may be abandoned or otherwise become invalid, so
long
as the
failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially
adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and
so
long as such replacement
Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien created by this Agreement or (C)
that
is
substantially the same as another Intellectual Property that is in full force,
so long the
failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially
adversely affect
the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such
other
Intellectual
Property is subject to the Lien and security interest created by this
Agreement.
The Company will cause to be taken all necessary steps in any proceeding
before
the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright
Office
or
any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision
thereof to
maintain each registration of the Intellectual Property (other than the
Intellectual Property
described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence), including,
without limitation, filing of renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of
incontestability and opposition,
interference and cancellation proceedings and payment of maintenance fees,
filing fees, taxes or other governmental fees. If any Intellectual Property
(other than Intellectual
Property described in the proviso to the first sentence of subsection (i) of
this clause (h))
is
infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material
respect
by a third party, the Company shall (x) upon learning of such infringement,
misappropriation,
dilution or other violation, promptly notify the Collateral Agent and (y) to
the
extent the Company shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, promptly
xxx
for
infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, seek injunctive
relief where
appropriate and recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation,
dilution or other violation, or take such other actions as the Company
shall
deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.
The Company
shall furnish to the Collateral Agent, from time to time upon its request,
statements
and schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property
and
Licenses
and such other reports in connection with the Intellectual Property and Licenses
as
the
Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and promptly
upon
request of the Collateral Agent, following receipt by the Collateral Agent
of
any such
statements, schedules or reports, the Company shall modify this Agreement by
amending
Schedule
II hereto,
as the case may be, to include any Intellectual Property and License, as the
case may be, which becomes part of the Collateral under this Agreement
and shall execute and authenticate such documents and do such commercially
reasonable
acts as shall be necessary or, in the judgment of the Collateral Agent,
desirable
to subject such Intellectual Property and Licenses to the Lien and security
interest created by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, upon
the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Company
may
not
abandon or otherwise permit any Intellectual Property to become invalid without
the
prior
written consent of the Collateral Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld
or delayed, and if any Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated,
diluted or
otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, the Company will
take such action
as
the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect
such
Intellectual Property.
13
(ii)
In
no event shall the Company, either itself or through any agent, employee,
licensee or designee, file an application for the registration of any Trademark
or
Copyright or the issuance of any Patent with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office
or
the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, or in any similar office
or
agency
of
the United States or any country or any political subdivision thereof unless
it
gives
the
Collateral Agent prior written notice thereof. Upon request of the Collateral
Agent,
the Company shall execute, authenticate and deliver any and all assignments,
agreements,
instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably
request
to evidence the Collateral Agent's security interest hereunder in such
Intellectual Property
and the General Intangibles of the Company relating thereto or represented
thereby, and the Company hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its
attorney-in-fact to execute
and/or authenticate and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes,
all
acts of
such
attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, and such power (being coupled
with
an interest) shall be irrevocable until the indefeasible payment in full
in cash
of all of
the
Obligations in full and the termination of each of the Transaction
Documents.
(i) Deposit,
Commodities and Securities Accounts. Upon
the
Collateral Agent's written
request, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause each bank and other
financial institution
with an account referred to in Schedule
IV hereto
to
execute and deliver to the Collateral
Agent a control agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the
Collateral
Agent, duly executed by the Company and such bank or financial institution,
or
enter into
other arrangements in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,
pursuant to which
such institution shall irrevocably agree, inter
alia, that
(i)
upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, it will comply at any time with the
instructions originated by the Collateral Agent to such bank or financial
institution directing the disposition of
cash,
Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items from time
to time credited
to such account, without further consent of the Company, which instructions
the
Collateral
Agent will not give to such bank or other financial institution in the absence
of a continuing
Event of Default, (ii) all cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment
Property and
other
items of the Company deposited with such institution shall be subject to a
perfected, first
priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, (iii) any right
of
set off (other than recoupment
of standard fees), banker's Lien or other similar Lien, security interest or
encumbrance
shall be fully waived as against the Collateral Agent, and (iv) upon receipt
of
written
notice from the Collateral Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default,
such bank
or
financial institution shall immediately send to the Collateral Agent by wire
transfer (to such
account as the Collateral Agent shall specify, or in such other manner as the
Collateral Agent
shall direct) all such cash, the value of any Commodity Contracts, securities,
Investment Property
and other items held by it. Without the prior written consent of the Collateral
Agent, the
Company shall not make or maintain any Deposit Account, Commodity Account or
Securities
Account except for the accounts set forth in Schedule
IV hereto;
provided that as long as
there
is no Event of Default then continuing, the Company may make, open or maintain
new Deposit
Accounts without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent provided that any
such Deposit
Accounts shall constitute Collateral under this Agreement and the Company shall
comply with the provisions of this Agreement with respect thereto. The
provisions of this paragraph
5(i) shall not apply to (i) Deposit Accounts for which the Collateral Agent
is
the depositary
and (ii) Deposit Accounts specially and exclusively used for payroll, payroll
taxes and other
employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of the Company's
salaried or hourly
employees.
(j) Motor
Vehicles.
(i) |
Upon
the Collateral Agent's written request, the Company shall deliver
to the
Collateral Agent originals of the certificates of title or ownership
for
all motor vehicles
with a value in excess of $50,000, owned by the Company with the
Collateral Agent
listed as lienholder, for the benefit of the
Buyers.
|
14
(ii) The
Company hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact,
effective
the date hereof and terminating upon the termination of this Agreement, for
the
purpose
of (A) executing on behalf of the Company title or ownership applications for
filing
with appropriate state agencies to enable motor vehicles now owned or hereafter
acquired
by the Company to be retitled and the Collateral Agent listed as lienholder
thereof, (B) filing such applications with such state agencies, and (C)
executing such other
documents and instruments on behalf of, and taking such other action in the
name
of,
the
Company as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish
the
purposes hereof (including, without limitation, for the purpose of creating
in
favor of the
Collateral Agent a perfected Lien on the motor vehicles and exercising the
rights and remedies
of the Collateral Agent hereunder). This appointment as attorney-in-fact is
coupled
with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are
indefeasibly paid
in
full in cash and after all Transaction Documents have been
terminated.
(iii) Any
certificates of title or ownership delivered pursuant to the terms hereof
shall be accompanied by odometer statements for each motor vehicle covered
thereby.
(iv)
So
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon
the
request of the Company, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to the
Company
such instruments as the Company shall reasonably request to remove the notation
of the Collateral Agent as lienholder on any certificate of title for any motor
vehicle;
provided,
however, that
any
such instruments shall be delivered, and the release effective, only upon
receipt by the Collateral Agent of a certificate from the Company stating
that such motor vehicle is to be sold or has suffered a casualty loss (with
title thereto
passing to the casualty insurance company therefor in settlement of the claim
for such loss) and the amount that the Company will receive as sale proceeds
or
insurance proceeds.
Any proceeds of such sale or casualty loss shall be paid to the Collateral
Agent
hereunder
immediately upon receipt, to be applied to the Obligations then
outstanding.
(k) Control.
The
Company hereby agrees to take any or all action that may be necessary
or desirable or that the Collateral Agent may request in order for the
Collateral Agent to
obtain
control in accordance with Sections 9-105 - 9-107 of the Code with respect
to
the following
Collateral: (i) Electronic Chattel Paper, (ii) Investment Property, and (iii)
Letter-of-Credit
Rights.
(l) Inspection
and Reporting. The
Company shall permit the Collateral Agent, or any agent
or
representatives thereof or such professionals or other Persons as the Collateral
Agent may
designate, not more frequently than once a year in the absence of an Event
of
Default, during
normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice to the Company, and
without unreasonably
disrupting the business of the Company, (i) to examine and make copies of and
abstracts
from the Company's records and books of account, (ii) to visit and inspect
its
properties,
(iii) to verify materials, leases, Instruments, Accounts, Inventory and other
assets of the Company from time to time, (iii) to conduct audits, physical
counts, appraisals and/or valuations,
examinations at the locations of the Company. The Company shall also, upon
reasonable
advance notice from the Collateral Agent, permit the Collateral Agent, or any
agent or
representatives thereof or such professionals or other Persons as the Collateral
Agent may designate,
to discuss the Company's affairs, finances and accounts with any of its
directors, officers,
managerial employees, independent accountants or any of its other
representatives during
normal business hours at a time and place to be mutually agreed upon by the
Collateral Agent
or
its designee and the Company.
15
(m)
Future
Subsidiaries. If
the
Company shall hereafter create or acquire any Subsidiary,
simultaneously with the creation of acquisition of such Subsidiary, the Company
shall
cause such Subsidiary to become a party to this Agreement as an additional
"Grantor" hereunder,
and to duly execute and deliver a guaranty of the Obligations in favor of the
Collateral
Agent in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent,
and
to duly
execute and/or deliver such opinions of counsel and other documents, in form
and
substance reasonably
acceptable to the Collateral Agent, as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably
request with
respect thereto.
SECTION
6. ADDITIONAL
PROVISIONS CONCERNING THE COLLATERAL.
(a) The
Company hereby (i) authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more
Uniform
Commercial Code financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto,
relating
to the Collateral and (ii) ratifies such authorization to the extent that the
Collateral Agent has
filed
any such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, prior
to
the date hereof.
A
photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement
covering
the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement
where permitted
by law.
(b) The
Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact
and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of the Company and in
the
name of the Company
or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent's discretion, so long
as
an Event
of
Default shall have occurred and is continuing, to take any action and to execute
any instrument
which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes
of this Agreement (subject to the rights of the Company under Section
5 hereof),
including,
without limitation, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default,
(i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Collateral Agent
pursuant to Section
5(e) hereof,
(ii) to ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give
acquittance
and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any
Collateral, (iii)
to
receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and
chattel paper in
connection with clause (i) or (ii) above, (iv) to file any claims or take any
action or institute any
proceedings which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for
the
collection of
any
Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent and the
Buyers with respect
to any Collateral, and (v) to execute assignments, licenses and other documents
to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers with respect to
any
Collateral. This power
is
coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are
indefeasibly paid
in
full in cash.
16
(c) For
the
purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies
hereunder,
at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise
such
rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, the Company hereby grants to
the
Collateral Agent, to the
extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without
payment of royalty
or other compensation to the Company) to use, assign, license or sublicense
any
Intellectual
Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company, wherever the same
may
be
located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which
any
of the licensed items
may
be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation
or
printout
thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject
to the provisions
of the Purchase Agreement that limit the right of the Company to dispose of
its
property
and Section
5(h) hereof,
so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Company may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign,
sell,
dispose
of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the
ordinary course of its business. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request
of
the Company, execute
and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so
requested, which
the
Company shall have certified are appropriate (in the Company's judgment) to
allow it to
take
any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided
pursuant to this
clause (c) as to any Intellectual Property). Further, upon the indefeasible
payment in full in cash
of
all of the Obligations, the Collateral Agent (subject to Section
10(e) hereof)
shall release and
reassign to the Company all of the Collateral Agent's right, title and interest
in and to the Intellectual
Property, and the Licenses, all without recourse, representation or warranty
whatsoever.
The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by the Collateral Agent shall
not
terminate
the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted
by
the Company in accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c). The
Company hereby releases
the Collateral Agent from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time
arising out
of or
with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral
Agent
under the
powers of attorney granted herein other than actions taken or omitted to be
taken through the Collateral
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final
determination of
a
court of competent jurisdiction.
(d) If
the
Company fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent
may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation,
in
the name of the
Company or the Collateral Agent, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent
incurred in connection
therewith shall be payable by the Company pursuant to Section
8 hereof
and shall be secured
by the Collateral.
(e) The
powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its
interest
in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such
powers. Except
for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting
for
moneys actually
received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any
Collateral or as
to the
taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining
to any Collateral.
(f) Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Company shall remain
liable
under the Licenses and otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral to the
extent set forth
therein to perform all of its obligations thereunder to the same extent as
if
this Agreement had
not
been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights
hereunder shall
not
release the Company from any of its obligations under the Licenses or otherwise
in respect
of the Collateral, and (iii) the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation
or liability by
reason
of this Agreement under the Licenses or with respect to any of the other
Collateral, nor shall
the
Collateral Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of
the
Company
thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment
assigned hereunder.
17
SECTION
7. REMEDIES
UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT. If
any
Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing:
(a)
The
Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to
any
other
rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of
the
rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code (whether
or
not the Code applies to the affected Collateral), and also may (i) take absolute
control of the Collateral, including, without limitation,
transfer into the Collateral Agent's name or into the name of its nominee or
nominees (to the extent the Collateral Agent has not theretofore done so) and
thereafter receive, for the benefit
of the Collateral Agent, all payments made thereon, give all consents, waivers
and ratifications
in respect thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were
the
outright
owner thereof, (ii) require the Company to, and the Company hereby agrees that
it will at
its
expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or
part
of its respective Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it
available to the Collateral Agent
at
a place or places to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably
convenient to
both
parties, and the Collateral Agent may enter into and occupy any premises owned
or leased
by
the Company where the Collateral or any part thereof is located or assembled
for
a reasonable
period in order to effectuate the Collateral Agent's rights and remedies
hereunder or under
law, without obligation to the Company in respect of such occupation, and (iii)
without notice
except as specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process
the
Collateral for sale, (A) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or
more
parcels at public or private sale, at
any of
the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future
delivery, and
at
such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may
deem
commercially
reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or dispose of the Collateral or any part
thereof upon
such
terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Company
agrees
that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of its respective
Collateral shall be
required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to the Company of the time and
place of any public
sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of its
respective Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.
The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to
make
any sale or other disposition of any Collateral regardless of notice of sale
having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale
from time to time by announcement
at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice,
be made
at
the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Company hereby waives
any
claims
against the Collateral Agent and the Buyers arising by reason of the fact that
the price at which
its
respective Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the
price which might
have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of
the
Obligations,
even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not
offer
such Collateral
to more than one offeree, and waives all rights that the Company may have to
require that
all
or any part of such Collateral be marshalled upon any sale (public or private)
thereof. The
Company hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of its respective Collateral
by the Collateral
Agent shall be made without warranty, (ii) the Collateral Agent may specifically
disclaim
any warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, and (iii)
such
actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not adversely effect
the
commercial reasonableness of any such
sale
of Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (1) upon written notice to the
Company from
the
Collateral Agent after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Company shall
cease any use of the Intellectual Property or any trademark, patent or copyright
similar thereto
for any purpose described in such notice; (2) the Collateral Agent may, at
any
time and from
time
to time, upon 10 days prior notice to the Company, license, whether general,
special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any
of
the Intellectual Property, throughout
the universe for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner,
as
the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (3) the
Collateral Agent may, at any time,
pursuant to the authority granted in Section
6 hereof
(such authority being effective upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), execute and
deliver on behalf of
the
Company, one or more instruments of assignment of the Intellectual Property
(or
any application
or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration
in any country.
18
(b) Any
cash
held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral and all Cash Proceeds received
by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of or collection from, or other
realization upon,
all
or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent,
be
held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time
thereafter applied (after payment of
any
amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section
8 hereof)
in whole or in part by
the
Collateral Agent against, all or any part of the Obligations in such order
as
the Collateral Agent
shall elect, consistent with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement. Any
surplus of such
cash
or Cash Proceeds held by the Collateral Agent and remaining after the
indefeasible payment
in full in cash of all of the Obligations shall be paid over to whomsoever
shall
be lawfully
entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall
direct.
(c) In
the
event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization are
insufficient
to pay all amounts to which the Collateral Agent and the Buyers are legally
entitled, the
Company shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon
at
the highest rate specified
in any of the applicable Transaction Documents for interest on overdue principal
thereof
or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs
of collection and
the
reasonable fees, costs, expenses and other client charges of any attorneys
employed by the
Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency.
(d) The
Company hereby acknowledges that if the Collateral Agent complies with
any
applicable state, provincial, or federal law requirements in connection with
a
disposition of the
Collateral, such compliance will not adversely affect the commercial
reasonableness of any sale
or
other disposition of the Collateral.
19
(e) The
Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future
collateral
security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral)
for,
or other assurances
of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral
security or
other
assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the Collateral Agent's
rights hereunder

(c) Any
provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any

otherwise. Upon any such assignment or transfer, all references in this
Agreement to the
Collateral Agent or any such Buyer shall mean the assignee of the Collateral
Agent or such Buyer.

or
otherwise
