In the event that the Grantor for any reason is unable or unwilling to maintain and operate such manufacturing facility and manufacture and distribute the Product, the Secured Parties or their designee shall have the right to maintain and operate such manufacturing facility and use the Collateral in order to manufacture and distribute the Product, subject to the terms of the lease of the manufacturing facility and any applicable Food and Drug Administration requirements and the Grantor shall take all actions reasonably requested by the Secured Parties (including obtaining any required consents) in connection therewith.

Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default: the Grantor shall instruct the insurance carriers that in the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers shall make payment for such loss to the Secured Parties and not to the Grantor and the Secured Parties jointly; if any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to the Grantor and the Secured Parties jointly, the Secured Parties may endorse the Grantor’s name thereon and do such other things as the Secured Parties may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash; the Secured Parties are hereby authorized to adjust and compromise claims; all loss recoveries received by the Secured Parties upon any such insurance shall be applied to the Obligations, in such order as the Secured Parties in their sole discretion shall determine. In that event, any surplus shall be paid by the Secured Parties to the Grantor or applied as may be otherwise required by law, and any deficiency thereon shall be paid by the Grantor to the Secured Parties, on demand.

The Grantor hereby ratifies and approves all acts of the attorney. The powers conferred on the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect their interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon them to exercise any such powers. Neither the Secured Parties nor the attorney will be liable for any acts or omissions. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as an account which is assigned to the Secured Parties or in which the Secured Parties have a security interest remains unpaid and until the Obligations have been fully satisfied.
(b) Consent to License Agreement. The Secured Parties covenant and agree with the Grantor that in the event that the Secured Parties exercise their rights hereunder and the Collateral is sold to a third party, the Secured Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) ensure that such third party purchaser of any of the Collateral licensed under the License Agreement agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions thereof, until the expiration or termination thereof, and (ii) ensure that such third-party purchaser shall agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all subsequent transferees of any of the Collateral licensed under the License Agreement shall agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the License Agreement, until the expiration or termination thereof.

(e) Exclusive Licenses. The Grantor shall not grant an exclusive license to a third party to manufacture, use, sell or develop the Product or enter into any exclusive license arrangement with a third party providing for the manufacture, use, sale or development of the Product without the consent of the Secured Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
7. Performance by Secured Parties of Grantor’s Obligations. If the Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein and the Secured Parties, as provided for by the terms of this Security Agreement and following reasonable written notice to the Grantor, shall itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreements, the expenses of the Secured Parties incurred in connection with such performance or compliance shall be payable by the Grantor to the Secured Parties on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured hereby.
15
8. Remedies. If an Event of Default (i) has occurred and has continued for a period of 30 consecutive days without cure by the Grantor with respect to items 1, 2, 3, and 4 set forth in the definition of Event of Default (expect, with respect to paragraph 4(k) and 6(d) above, such period shall be reduced to five (5) consecutive days), or (ii) has occurred and is continuing with respect to all other items in the definition of Event of Default, the Secured Parties may exercise, 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, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Parties, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below or expressly provided for) to or upon the Grantor or any other person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are, to the extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, license, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Secured Parties or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as they may deem advisable and at such prices as they may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Parties shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived, to the extent permitted by applicable law, or released.
The Grantor further agrees that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the Secured Parties’ request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Parties at places which the Secured Parties shall reasonably select, whether at the Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Secured Parties shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Secured Parties may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Secured Parties of any other amount required by any provision of law, must the Secured Parties account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Secured Parties arising out of the exercise by it of any rights hereunder, provided, that nothing contained in this Section shall relieve the Secured Parties from liability arising solely from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. The Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Secured Parties to collect such deficiency.
For the purpose of enabling the Secured Parties to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 8 at such time as the Secured Parties shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and
16
remedies, the Grantor hereby grants to the Secured Parties an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Grantor or as to which the Grantor has the right to use, and wherever the same may be located, and 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 software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Secured Parties shall be exercised, at the option of the Secured Parties, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Secured Parties in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.
9. Severability. Any provision of this Security Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
