REMEDIES; SUBSTITUTE COLLATERAL
7.1 |
Method
of Realizing Upon the Pledged Property: Other Remedies.
|
If
any
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
(a) |
The
Secured Parties may:
|
(i) |
exercise
in respect of the Pledged Property, 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 Uniform
Commercial Code (whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code applies
to the
affected Pledged Property) but only to the extent permitted under
applicable British Columbia law;
|
(ii) |
take
absolute control of the Pledged Property, including, without limitation,
transfer into the Secured Parties' respective names or into the name
of
their respective nominee or nominees (to the extent the Secured Parties
have not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive, for the benefit
of
the Secured Parties, 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;
|
(iii) |
require
the Debtor to assemble all or part of the Pledged Property as directed
by
the Secured Parties and make it available to the Secured Parties
at a
place or places to be designated by the Secured Parties that is reasonably
convenient to both parties, and the Secured Parties may enter into
and
occupy any premises owned or leased by the Debtor where the Pledged
Property or any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable
period in order to effectuate the Secured Parties' rights and remedies
hereunder or under law, without obligation to the Debtor in respect
of
such occupation, and
|
(iv) |
without
notice except as specified below and without any obligation to prepare
or
process the Pledged Property for sale,
|
A. |
sell
the Pledged Property or any part thereof in one or more parcels at
public
or private sale, at any of the Secured Party'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 Secured Parties may deem commercially
reasonable; and/or
|
B. |
lease,
license or dispose of the Pledged Property or any part thereof upon
such
terms as the Secured Parties may deem commercially reasonable; and
|
the
Debtor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition
of the
Pledged Property shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice
to the
Debtor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any
private sale or other disposition of the Pledged Property is to be made shall
constitute reasonable notification. The Secured Parties shall not be obligated
to make any sale or other disposition of any Pledged Property regardless
of
notice of sale having been given. The Secured Parties 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 Debtor hereby waives any claims against
the Secured Parties arising by reason of the fact that the price at which
the
Pledged Property 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 Secured Parties accepts the first
offer
received and does not offer such Pledged Property to more than one offeree,
and
waives all rights that the Debtor may have to require that all or any part
of
such Pledged Property be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof.
The Debtor hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of the Pledged
Property by the Secured Parties may be made without warranty, (ii) the
Secured Parties may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession,
quiet enjoyment or the like, and (iii) such actions set forth in items (i)
and (ii) above shall not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of
any
such sale of Pledged Property.
(b) |
Any
cash held by the Secured Parties as Pledged Property and all cash
proceeds
received by the Secured Parties in respect of any sale of or collection
from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Pledged Property
shall be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Secured
Parties pursuant to Section 10.3 hereof) by the Secured Parties against,
all or any part of the Obligations in such order as the Secured Parties
shall elect, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the
Securities Purchase Agreement and the Debentures. Any surplus of
such cash
or cash proceeds held by the Secured Parties 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.
The Secured Parties agree that any proceeds that are applied against
any
of the Obligations be allocated pro rata amongst the Secured Parties
based
on the amount of their respective amounts due and owing under the
Debentures.
|
(c) |
In
the event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization
are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Parties
are
legally entitled, the Debtor shall be liable for the deficiency,
together
with interest thereon at the rate specified in the Convertible Debentures
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 Secured Parties to collect such
deficiency.
|
(d) |
The
Debtor hereby acknowledges that if the Secured Parties comply with
any
applicable state, provincial, or federal law requirements in connection
with a disposition of the Pledged Property, such compliance will
not
adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other
disposition of the Pledged Property.
|
(e) |
The
Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal any present or future
collateral security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement
and the
Pledged Property) 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 Secured
Parties' rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security
and
other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to
all
other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that the
Debtor
lawfully may, the Debtor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any
law
relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay
in or
impede the enforcement of the Secured Parties' rights under this
Agreement
or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the
Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding
or by
which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise
assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, the Debtor hereby
irrevocably waives the benefits of all such
laws.

Regarding Pledged Property.

The
Secured Parties shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of

from and against any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses) incurred

(b) |
The

to all
matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon
advice
of counsel selected by it.
|
(c) |
The
Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions
and
duties hereunder at any time by giving at least ten (10) days prior
written notice to the Debtor and each holder of the Convertible
Debentures. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance
by a
successor Collateral Agent of appointment as provided below. Upon
any such
notice of resignation, the holders of a majority of the outstanding
principal under the Convertible Debentures shall appoint a successor
Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of the appointment as Collateral
Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to and become
vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any Collateral
Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this section 10.6(c)
shall inure to its benefit. If a successor Collateral Agent shall
not have
been so appointed within said ten (10) day period, the retiring Collateral
Agent shall then appoint a successor Collateral Agent who shall serve
until such time, if any, as the holders of a majority of the outstanding
principal under the Convertible Debentures appoint a successor Collateral
Agent as provided above.
