Remedies, Rights Upon Default. |
(a) In addition to any other rights given to the Lender hereunder, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Lender shall have declared the amounts owing under the Note to be due and payable (or such amounts shall have automatically, become due and payable), all payments received by Borrower under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be held by Borrower in trust for the Lender, shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower and shall, if requested by the Lender forthwith upon receipt by Borrower be turned over to the Lender, in the same form as received by Borrower (duly endorsed by Borrower to the Lender, if required).
(b) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Lender 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, Borrower expressly agrees that in any such event, the Lender, without demand of performance or other demand, (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon Borrower or any other person may forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange broker's board or at any of the Lender’ offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Lender 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 said Collateral so sold, free of
4
any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption Borrower hereby releases. Borrower further agrees, at the Lender’ request, to assemble the Collateral, make it available to the Lender at places which the Lender shall reasonably select, whether at Borrower's premises or elsewhere. The Lender 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, safe keeping or otherwise of any or all of the Collateral or in any way relating to the rights of the Lender hereunder, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, Borrower remaining liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after the application, and only after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by the Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral. Borrower agrees that the Lender need not give more than 10 days notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Lender is entitled.
(c) Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
7. Application of Proceeds. The Proceeds of all sales and collections in respect of any Collateral shall be applied as follows:
(a) First, to the reasonable payment of the costs and expenses of such sales and collections, the expenses of Lender and the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel;
(b) Second, any surplus then remaining to the payment of the Obligations in such order and manner as the Lender may in its sole discretion determine; and
|
|
(c) |
Third, any surplus then remaining shall be paid to Borrower. |
8. Limitation on Lender’ Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Lender shall not have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of it or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.
9. Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Security Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) upon receipt of confirmation of delivery after deposit with a reputable overnight courier service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. All communications shall be sent to Borrower at the address provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement executed in connection herewith, with a copy to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Esq., Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, facsimile number (000) 000-0000, and to the Lender at the address provided in the Securities

Xxxxxxx, Esq., Xxxxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, 00000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxxxxx, XX. 00000, facsimile number (000) 000-0000, or at such other address as Borrower or the Lender may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto.
Either party hereto may change the above specified recipient or mailing address by notice to the other party given in the manner herein prescribed. All notices shall be deemed given on the day when actually delivered as provided above (if delivered personally or by facsimile, provided that any such facsimile is received during regular business hours at the recipient's location) or on the day shown on the return receipt (if delivered by mail or delivery service).
10. 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.
11. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Lender shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Lender, and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by the Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Lender would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise or any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by the Borrower and the Lender.
12. Successors and Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Borrower, and shall, together with the rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder, inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns; provided that the Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender.
13. GOVERNING LAW. ALL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA AND COURTS HAVING JURISDICTION TO HEAR APPEALS FROM SUCH FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE BROUGHT BY THE BORROWER OR THE LENDER HEREUNDER, IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR WITH ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY
6
OR DISCUSSED HEREIN, AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE BORROWER OR THE LENDER, ANY CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT, OR THAT SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF VIA REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL OR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY (WITH EVIDENCE OF DELIVERY) TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS IN EFFECT FOR NOTICES TO IT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE SHALL CONSTITUTE GOOD AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE OF PROCESS AND NOTICE THEREOF. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO LIMIT IN ANY WAY ANY RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.
14. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts each of which will be an original and all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement. Facsimile or other electronic transmission of a signature shall be deemed to be the same, and equally enforceable, as an original of such signature.
15. Termination. At such time as the Obligations have been fully paid in cash or converted into shares of Borrower common stock, the security interest created hereby shall automatically terminate, the Lender shall take all such actions as may be requested by the Borrower to evidence such termination and to release the liens created hereby, at the Borrower's expense.
