SECURITY INTERESTS; PRIORITIES; REMEDIES |
2.1 |
Acknowledgment of Liens. CDS hereby acknowledges that Imperium acting for and on behalf of itself has been granted Liens upon all of the Collateral pursuant to the Imperium Documents to secure the Imperium Debt. Imperium hereby acknowledges that CDS has been granted Liens upon the Collateral pursuant to the CDS Documents to secure the CDS Debt. |
2.2 |
Priority of Liens. Notwithstanding the order or time of attachment, or the order, time or manner of perfection, or the order or time of filing or recordation of any document or instrument, or other method of perfecting a security interest in favor of each Secured Creditor in any Collateral, and notwithstanding any conflicting terms or conditions which may be contained in any of the Agreements, the Liens upon the Collateral of Imperium, have and shall have priority over the Liens upon the Collateral of CDS, and such Liens of CDS in the Collateral are and shall be, in all respects, subject and subordinate to the Liens of Imperium therein to the full extent of the Imperium Debt. |
2.3 |
Priorities Unaffected by Action or Inaction. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.2 shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal, restatement, replacement or refinancing of either the CDS Debt or the Imperium Debt, nor by any action or inaction which any Secured Creditor may take or fail to take in respect of the Collateral. |
2.4 |
Rights of Third Parties; No Contest of Lien. Each Secured Creditor shall be solely responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of its Lien in and to each item constituting the Collateral in which such Secured Creditor has been granted a Lien. The foregoing provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective lien priorities as between the Secured Creditors and shall not impose on any Secured Creditor any obligations in respect of the disposition of proceeds of foreclosure on any Collateral which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of any other person or any order or decree of any court or other governmental authority or any applicable law. Each Secured Creditor agrees that it will not contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens upon the Collateral of CDS or Imperium, as the case may be, and that as between CDS, on the one hand, and Imperium, on the other, the terms of this Agreement shall govern even if part or all of the CDS Debt or the Imperium Debt or the Liens securing payment and performance thereof are avoided, disallowed, set aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise. |
2.5 |
Access to Books and Records. In the event that any Secured Creditor shall, in the exercise of its respective enforcement rights under its Transaction Documents, receive possession or control of any books and records of any Obligor which contain information identifying or pertaining to any of the property of any Obligor in which the other party has been granted a Lien, it shall notify CDS or Imperium, as the case may be, that it has received such books and records and shall, as promptly as practicable thereafter, make available to CDS or Imperium, as the case may be, such books and records for inspection and duplication. |
2.6 |
Right to Enforce Agreements; Standstill by CDS. |
(a) |
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Imperium shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and enforce the terms of the Imperium Documents with respect to the Collateral, to exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder according to its discretion and the exercise of its business judgment, including, without limitation, the exclusive right to take or retake control or possession of such Collateral and to hold, prepare for sale, process, sell, lease, dispose of, or liquidate such Collateral. CDS shall not have any right to direct Imperium to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to the Collateral. |
(b) |
Until the Imperium Debt is paid in full, CDS will not, directly or indirectly, receive or otherwise permit any repayment of CDS Debt or take or commence any Lien Enforcement Action against any of the Collateral; except that CDS shall have the right to take action or institute proceedings with respect to the Collateral one hundred and twenty (120) days (the “Waiting Period”) after the receipt by Imperium of a notice from CDS setting forth an Event of Default under the CDS Documents, provided that as of the expiration of the Waiting Period (such date being referred to as the “Collateral Enforcement Date”), (A) such Event of Default remains uncured and is continuing; (B) so long as the Imperium Debt remains outstanding, CDS agrees that any proceeds which it receives from the Collateral shall be held by CDS in trust for Imperium, and shall be promptly remitted to Imperium for application to the Imperium Debt, and (C) in the event that Imperium institutes any action or proceedings with respect to the Collateral after the commencement by CDS of any action or proceeding against the Collateral, CDS shall desist from such enforcement efforts against the Collateral promptly upon being advised in writing by Imperium of the commencement of foreclosure or other enforcement efforts by Imperium against the Collateral. |
2.7 |
Sale and Release of Collateral. Only Imperium shall have the right to restrict or permit, or approve or disapprove, the sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral. With respect to sales, transfers or other dispositions of Collateral having a value in the aggregate of less than $200,000 or with respect to the sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral after the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Imperium Documents, CDS shall (a) be deemed to have automatically and without further action released and terminated any Liens it may have on the Collateral to the extent such Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of either by Imperium, or any Obligor with the consent of Imperium, (b) be deemed to have authorized Imperium to file UCC amendments and terminations covering the Collateral so sold or otherwise disposed of as to UCC financing statements between any Obligor and CDS to evidence such release and termination, (c) promptly upon the request of Imperium execute and deliver such other release documents and confirmations of the authorization to file UCC amendments and terminations provided for herein, in each case as Imperium may require in connection with such sale or other disposition by Imperium or any Obligor with the consent of Imperium to evidence and effectuate such termination and release, provided that any such release or UCC amendment or termination by CDS shall not extend to or otherwise affect the rights of CDS to the proceeds from any such sale or other disposition of Collateral after payment in full of the Imperium Debt, and (d) be deemed to have consented under the CDS Documents to such sale or other disposition. In the event that for any reason CDS shall fail to immediately execute and deliver to Imperium any such release documents, Imperium is hereby irrevocably authorized to execute and deliver such release documents on behalf of CDS as its attorney-in-fact. |
2.8 |
Limitation on Remedies. Except as expressly permitted under Section 2.6(b), CDS will not, directly or indirectly, (a) exercise any of its or their rights or remedies upon a default or event of default by any Obligor under any of the CDS Documents against the Collateral, or (b) seek to foreclose or realize upon (judicially or non-judicially) its or their junior Lien on the Collateral or assert any claims or interest therein (including, without limitation, by setoff or notification of account debtors). |

Bankruptcy Financing. If the Company shall become subject to an Insolvency Proceeding and if Imperium desires to permit the use of cash collateral or to provide financing to the Company under either Section 363 or Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or other applicable statute, CDS agrees as follows: (a) adequate notice to CDS shall have been provided for such financing to the Company or use of cash collateral by the Company if CDS receives notice two (2) business days prior to the entry of the order approving such financing or use of cash collateral and (b) no objection will be raised by CDS to any such financing to the Company or use of cash collateral by the Company on the ground of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of CDS or as a result of any of the terms of such financing or use of cash collateral so long as (i) the interest rate, fees, advance rates and lending limits and other terms are commercially reasonable under the circumstances, (ii) to the extent of the secured claim of CDS against the Company, CDS receives a replacement Lien on the same post-petition assets of the Company as are subject to the Liens of CDS, and with the same priority as existed with respect to such types of assets, prior to the commencement of the case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) such financing to the Company or use of cash collateral by the Company is subject to the terms of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 3.5, notice of a proposed financing to the Company or use of cash collateral by the Company shall be deemed given when given, in the manner prescribed by Section 3.8, to CDS. CDS further agrees that it will not provide to the Company as debtor-in-possession any financing under Section 364(d) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to the extent that CDS would, in connection with such financing, be granted a priming or pari passu Lien on the pre-petition Collateral of the Company. |
3.6 |
Bailee for Perfection; Delivery of Proceeds. Each Secured Creditor hereby appoints the others as agent for the purposes of perfecting their respective Liens in and on any of the Collateral; provided that no Secured Creditor shall have any duty or liability to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Collateral and, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, each Secured Creditor hereby waives, and releases the other Secured Creditors from, all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the other’s role as bailee with respect to the Collateral. In the event CDS receives proceeds of any Collateral, all such proceeds of the Collateral received by CDS shall be forthwith paid over, in the funds and currency received, to Imperium for application to the Imperium Debt. |
3.7 |
Notices of Default, Acceleration and Enforcement. Each Secured Creditor shall (a) give the other Secured Creditor written notice of: (i) sending any written notice to an Obligor of an event of default under its Transaction Documents which has not been waived or cured; (ii) any demand of payment of any of the CDS Debt or the Imperium Debt, as the case may be, (iii) any commencement of a foreclosure or other lien enforcement proceeding by such Secured Creditor against any Obligor or any of the Collateral, in each case concurrently with the sending of such notice to any Obligor, and (b) provide to the other Secured Creditor a copy of any written notice received by such Secured Creditor from a landlord or other third party of a default by any Obligor under any lease or other agreement of such Obligor with such third party promptly after the receipt thereof by such Secured Creditor; provided that the failure of either Secured Creditor to send any such notices or provide such copy, as the case may be, shall not create a cause of action against such Secured Creditor or create any claim against it or effect the relative rights, duties or priorities established by this Agreement. The failure by either Secured Creditor to send a copy of any such notice to the other shall not affect the validity of such notice as against any Obligor. Each Obligor hereby authorizes and consents to each Secured Creditor sending to the other such notices or any other information with respect thereto. |
3.8 |
Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by a Secured Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission, unless such delivery is made on a day that is not a business day, in which case such delivery will be deemed to be made on the next succeeding business day; (ii) on the next business day after timely delivery to an overnight courier; and (iii) on the business day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed as follows: |
