The Grantor hereby covenants and agrees that, so long as this Security Agreement shall remain in effect, the Grantor agrees to the following:
Section 4.1.
As to Receivables.
(a)
The Grantor shall keep its place(s) of business and its principal executive office and the office(s) where it keeps its books and records (including those concerning the Receivables) and all original copies of the Subject Agreements located, in each case, at its address specified in Item A of Schedule I, or, upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee, at such other locations in a jurisdiction where all actions required by the first sentence of Section 4.4 shall have been taken with respect to the Receivables and the Subject Agreements; not
7
change its name or its state or place of incorporation or organization except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee; and hold and preserve such books and records.
(b)
Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (b) and subject to the Indenture, until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Grantor shall, subject to any provision of the Indenture to the contrary, continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to the Grantor under the Subject Agreements. In connection with such collections, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantor may, as permitted by the Indenture, take (and, at the Trustee’s direction, shall take) such action as the Grantor may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the applicable Subject Agreement. At any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have the right to notify the account debtors or obligors under any Receivables of the security interest of the Trustee in such Receivables to the Trustee and to direct such account debtors or obligors to make payment to the Trustee of any amounts due or to become due thereunder and enforce collection of any of the Receivables by suit or otherwise and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or adjust, settle or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the request of the Trustee, the Grantor will, at its own expense, notify any parties obligated on any of the Receivables to make payment to the Trustee of any amounts due or to become due thereunder, and in such event, the Trustee are authorized to endorse, in the name of the Grantor, any item representing any payment on or other proceeds of any of the Receivables.
(c)
After delivery to the Grantor by the Trustee of a notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) all amounts and proceeds (including Instruments) received by the Grantor in respect of any Receivables shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Trustee hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of the Grantor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Trustee in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsements) to be held as cash collateral and applied as provided by this Security Agreement; and (ii) subject to any provision of the Indenture to the contrary, the Grantor shall not adjust, settle, or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable, or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon.
(d)
After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (A) the Trustee may in its own name or in the name of others communicate with account debtors in order to verify with them to the Trustee’s reasonable satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables and (B) the Trustee shall have the right, at the Grantor’s expense, to make test verifications of the Receivables in any reasonable manner and through any medium that it considers advisable, and the Grantor agrees to furnish all such assistance as the Trustee may reasonably require in connection therewith.
Section 4.2.
Insurance.
The Grantor will maintain or cause to be maintained at all times insurance against loss or damage sufficient to cover all the Collateral that are of an insurable nature to the same extent assets of a similar character are usually so insured by companies similarly situated and
8
owning like assets, with insurers believed by the Grantor to be responsible and reputable. If an Event of Default exists at the time any insurance proceeds relating to the Collateral are received, all such proceeds shall be paid to the Trustee for application in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture and this Security Agreement.
Section 4.3.
Transfers and Other Liens; Permitted Encumbrances.
The Grantor shall not:
(a)
create or suffer to exist any Lien or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Collateral, except for the security interest created by this Security Agreement; or
(b)
sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, except as otherwise permitted by the Indenture;
provided, however, that the Grantor may: (i) grant a security interest in the Subject IP (including the patents comprising the Subject IP) to other purchasers (“New Purchasers”) with respect to the Grantor’s interest (or any portion thereof) in the Subject IP not comprising the Licensed Rights, and the Trustee will, under such circumstances, enter on behalf of the Unitholders into an intercreditor agreement with respect to the Subject IP with the New Purchasers, granting such New Purchasers creditors’ rights pari passu to those held by the Trustee on behalf of the Unitholders, on terms to be agreed to with the Unitholders, the Grantor, and the New Purchasers, acting reasonably; and (ii) grant to New Purchasers a security interest in the Subject IP comprising the Licensed Rights, the Purchased Royalties, the Licensed Rights and the Subject Agreements in order to secure payment of that remaining portion of the Purchased Royalties not comprising the Applicable Percentage thereof, provided, however, that in such event the Trustee shall not grant such New Purchasers a pari passu position with respect to the Subject IP. The security interests referred to in the immediately preceding subsections (i) and (ii) are “Permitted Encumbrances.”
Section 4.4.
Further Assurances.
The Grantor agrees that, from time to time at its own expense, the Grantor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments, assignments, agreements and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that the Trustee may reasonably request, in order to perfect, preserve, and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby and the priority thereof or to enable the Trustee to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing the Grantor will:
(a)
if any Collateral shall be evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument or negotiable document, deliver and pledge to the Trustee hereunder such promissory note, instrument or negotiable document duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;
9
(b)
execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments, assignments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Trustee may request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted to the Trustee;
(c)
furnish to the Trustee, from time to time, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Trustee may reasonably request, and all in reasonable detail and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.
With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder, the Grantor hereby authorizes the Trustee to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of the Grantor where permitted by law. A carbon, photographic, or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.
Section 4.5.
General Covenants.
Without limiting any of the foregoing covenants, the Grantor agrees (a) not to use or permit any Collateral to be used unlawfully or in material violation of any provision of the Indenture, the Purchase Agreement, this Security Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any applicable statute, regulation or ordinance or any policy of insurance covering the Collateral; and (b) to pay promptly when due all taxes, assessments, charges, encumbrances and Liens now or hereafter imposed upon or affecting any Collateral.

The Trustee shall be obligated to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Security Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Security Agreement against the Trustee.

Section 5.4.
Reasonable Care.
It is understood and agreed between the parties hereto that the Trustee’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping, and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession should be to deal with it in the same manner as the Trustee deals with similar property for its own account; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to make any presentment,
11
demand, or protest, or give any notice, and need not take any action to preserve any rights against any other Person with respect to the Collateral.
Section 6.1.
Certain Remedies.
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing:
(a)
The Trustee may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights available to it at law or in equity or otherwise, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the PPSA (whether or not the same applies to the affected Collateral) and also may (i) require the Grantor to, and the Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of the Trustee forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Trustee and make it available to the Trustee at a place to be designated by the Trustee that is reasonably convenient to both parties, (ii) exercise any and all rights and remedies of the Grantor under or in connection with the Collateral, (iii) withdraw all monies, securities and other property in the Segregated Account for application to the Obligations, (iv) foreclose or otherwise enforce the Trustee’s security interest in any manner permitted by law or provided for in this Security Agreement, (v) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any place or places for cash, on credit, or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Trustee may reasonably determine, (vi) recover from the Grantor all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by the Trustee in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy provided by this Security Agreement or by law, (vii) enter into property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof, (viii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent the Trustee deems appropriate; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Trustee may sell or otherwise dispose the Collateral or any portion thereof in its then condition without any preparation or processing; and (iv) appoint, by instrument, a receiver, receiver and manager or receiver-manager of the Collateral, with or without bond, as the Trustee may determine, with all such powers as may be conferred on it by law. The Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Trustee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Trustee 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. Upon any sale or other disposition pursuant to this Security Agreement, the Trustee shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral or portion thereof and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral or portion thereof so sold or disposed of. Each purchaser at any such sale or other disposition (including the Trustee) shall hold the Collateral free from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Grantor and the Grantor
12
specifically waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted.
(b)
All cash proceeds received by the Trustee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations. If any non-cash proceeds are received in connection with any sale of Collateral, the Trustee shall not apply such non-cash proceeds to the Obligations unless and until such proceeds are converted to cash; provided, however, that if such non-cash proceeds are not expected on the date of receipt thereof to be converted to cash within one year after such date, the Trustee shall nonetheless use commercially reasonable efforts to convert such non-cash proceeds to cash within such one-year period. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by the Trustee after payment in full of all the Obligations shall be paid over to the Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
