(l)
(i) Debtor shall comply with all of its obligations under any Pledged Collateral Agreements to which it is a party and shall enforce all of its rights thereunder; (ii) Debtor will take all actions necessary to cause each Pledged Collateral Agreement relating to Collateral consisting of any and all limited, limited liability and general partnership interests and limited liability company interests of any type or nature (“Partnership and LLC Collateral”) issued by a Subsidiary to provide specifically at all times that: (A) the Partnership and LLC Collateral shall be securities and shall be governed by Article 8 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; (B) each certificate of membership or partnership representing the Partnership and LLC Collateral shall bear a legend to the effect that such membership interest or partnership interest is a security and is governed by Article 8 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; and (C) no consent of any member, manager, partner or other Person shall be a condition to the admission as a member or partner of any transferee that acquires ownership of the Partnership and LLC Collateral as a result of the exercise by

(c)
Secured Party shall have the right to, in the name of Debtor, or in the name of Secured Party or otherwise, upon notice to but without the requirement of assent by Debtor, and Debtor hereby constitutes and appoints Secured Party (and any of Secured Party’s officers, employees or agents designated by Secured Party), as Debtor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority to: (i) sign and file any of the financing statements and other documents and instruments which must be executed or filed to perfect or continue perfected, maintain the priority of or provide notice of Secured Party’s security interest in the Collateral; (ii) assert, adjust, xxx for, compromise or release any claims under any policies of insurance; (iii) give notices of control, default or exclusivity (or similar notices) under any account control agreement or similar agreement with respect to exercising control over deposit accounts or securities accounts; and (iv) execute any and all such other documents and instruments, and do any and all acts and things for and on behalf of Debtor, which Secured Party may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Collateral and Secured Party’s security interest therein and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

(b)
Any material impairment in the value of the Collateral or the priority of Secured Party’s Lien with respect to any material Collateral hereunder.

5
SECTION 8
Remedies.
(a)
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Secured Party may declare any of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable and shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, the Note or any other Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other applicable laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,(i) Secured Party may peaceably and without notice enter any premises of Debtor, take possession of any the Collateral, remove or dispose of all or part of the Collateral on any premises of such Debtor or elsewhere, or, in the case of equipment, render it nonfunctional, and otherwise collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, and demand, give receipt for, settle, renew, extend, exchange, compromise, adjust, or xxx for all or any part of the Collateral, as Secured Party may determine; (ii) Secured Party may require Debtor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at any place and time designated by Secured Party; (iii) Secured Party may secure the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof (to the extent and in the manner provided by applicable law); (iv) Secured Party may sell, resell, lease, use, assign, license, sublicense, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing (utilizing in connection therewith any of Debtor’s assets, without charge or liability to Secured Party therefor) at public or private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, for cash or credit, or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, all as Secured Party deems advisable; provided, however, that Debtor shall be credited with the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by Secured Party. Debtor recognizes that Secured Party may be unable to make a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale. Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption Debtor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by law. Secured Party shall give Debtor such notice of any private or public sales as may be required by the UCC or other applicable law.
(b)
For the purpose of enabling Secured Party to exercise its rights and remedies under this Section 8 or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, Debtor hereby grants to Secured Party, effective during the continuance of any Event of Default, an irrevocable, non-exclusive and assignable license (exercisable without payment or royalty or other compensation to Debtor) to use, license or sublicense any intellectual property Collateral.
(c)
Secured Party shall not have any obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. Secured Party has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other Person liable for them, and Secured Party may release, modify or waive any Collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Secured Party’s rights against Debtor. Debtor waives any right it may have to require Secured Party to pursue any third Person for any of the Obligations. Secured Party may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Secured Party may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Secured Party may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If Secured Party sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Debtor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Secured Party and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Secured Party may resell the Collateral and Debtor shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale.
(d)
To the extent Debtor uses the proceeds of any of the Obligations to purchase Collateral, Debtor’s repayment of the Obligations shall apply on a “first-in, first-out” basis so that the portion of the Obligations used to purchase a particular item of Collateral shall be paid in the chronological order the Debtor purchased the Collateral.
(e)
The cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect of the Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall be applied first, to the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses of Secured Party in exercising or enforcing its rights hereunder and in collecting or attempting to collect any of the Collateral, and to the payment of all other amounts payable to Secured Party pursuant to Section 12 hereof; and second, to the payment of the Obligations. Any surplus thereof which exists after payment and performance in full of the Obligations shall be promptly paid over to Debtor or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the UCC or other applicable law. Debtor shall remain liable to Secured Party for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral.
SECTION 9
Certain Waivers. Debtor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) any right of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Collateral or other collateral or security for the Obligations; (ii) any right to require Secured Party (A) to proceed against any Person, (B) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Obligations, (C) to pursue any remedy in Secured Party’s power, or (D) to make
6
or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Collateral; and (iii) all claims, damages, and demands against Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral.
SECTION 10
Notices. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be in accordance with Section 9.2 of the Note.
SECTION 11
No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to Secured Party.

If and to the extent that the foregoing indemnification is for any reason held unenforceable, Debtor agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.
