(ii) Each Grantor shall have the duty, to the extent necessary or economically desirable in the operation of its business, (A) to promptly xxx for infringement, misappropriation, or dilution and to recover any and all awarded damages for such infringement, misappropriation, or dilution, (B) to prosecute diligently any trademark application or service xxxx application that is part of such Grantor’s Trademarks pending as of the date hereof or hereafter until the termination of this Agreement, (C) to prosecute diligently any patent application that is part of such Grantor’s Patents pending as of the date hereof or hereafter until the termination of this Agreement, and (D) to take all reasonable and necessary action to preserve and maintain all of such Grantor’s Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, Intellectual Property Licenses, and its rights therein, including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of noncontestability and opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings. Each Grantor shall promptly file an application with the United States Copyright Office for any Copyright that has not been registered with the United States Copyright Office if such Copyright is necessary or economically desirable in the operation of such Grantor’s business. Any expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be borne by the appropriate Grantor. Each Grantor further agrees not to abandon any Trademark, Patent, Copyright, or Intellectual Property License that is necessary or economically desirable in the operation of such Grantor’s business;
(iii) Grantors acknowledge and agree that Secured Parties shall have no duties with respect to the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, or Intellectual Property Licenses. Without limiting the generality of this Section 6(f), Grantors acknowledge and agree that Secured Party shall not be under any obligation to take any steps necessary to preserve rights in the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, or Intellectual Property Licenses against any other Person, but Secured Party may do so at its option from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and all expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals) shall be for the sole account of the Company and shall be chargeable to the Company;
14
(iv) In no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee, or designee, file an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark, or Copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency without giving Secured Party prompt (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) written notice thereof. Promptly upon any such filing, each Grantor shall comply with Section 6(f)(i) hereof;
(g) Investment Related Property.
(i) If any Grantor shall receive or become entitled to receive any Investment Related Property after the Closing Date, it shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof) take all actions necessary to cause such Investment Related Property to become Collateral hereunder and subject to a lien and security interest in favor of Agent;
(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all sums of money and property paid or distributed in respect of the Investment Related Property which are received by any Grantor shall be held by the Grantors in trust for the benefit of Secured Parties segregated from such Grantor’s other property, and such Grantor shall deliver it forthwith to Agent in the exact form received;
(iii) Each Grantor shall promptly deliver to Agent a copy of each notice or other communication received by it in respect of any Investment Related Property;
(iv) Each Grantor agrees that it will cooperate with Agent in obtaining all necessary approvals and making all necessary filings under federal, state, local, or foreign law in connection with the Security Interest on the Investment Related Property or any sale or transfer thereof;
(h) Transfers and Other Liens. Except as otherwise expressly permitted hereby or by the Purchase Agreement, Grantors shall not (i) sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, or (ii) create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of any of Grantors, except for Permitted Encumbrances. The inclusion of Proceeds in the Collateral shall not be deemed to constitute Secured Parties’ consent to any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;
(i) Insurance. The Grantors shall maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to the Collateral, including Collateral hereafter acquired, against loss or damage of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against by entities of established reputation having similar properties similarly situated
15
and in such amounts as are customarily carried under similar circumstances by other such entities and otherwise as is prudent for entities engaged in similar businesses but in any event sufficient to cover the full replacement cost thereof (it being agreed that the insurance policies and amounts maintained by Grantors as of the Closing Date are satisfactory). The Grantors shall cause each insurance policy issued in connection herewith to provide, and the insurer issuing such policy to certify to Agent that (a) Agent will be named as Purchaser loss payee and additional insured under each such insurance policy; (b) if such insurance be proposed to be cancelled or materially changed for any reason whatsoever, such insurer will promptly notify Agent and such cancellation or change shall not be effective as to Agent for at least thirty (30) days after receipt by Agent of such notice, unless the effect of such change is to extend or increase coverage under the policy; and (c) Agent will have the right (but no obligation) at its election to remedy any default in the payment of premiums within thirty (30) days of notice from the insurer of such default. If no Event of Default exists and if the proceeds arising out of any claim or series of related claims do not exceed $100,000, loss payments in each instance will be available to the Grantors and applied by the Grantors to the repair and/or replacement of property with respect to which the loss was incurred. If no Event of Default exists and such proceeds exceed $100,000, and in any event after an Event of Default occurs, all proceeds then or thereafter in existence shall be paid to Agent (for application to the Obligations) and, if received by any Grantor, shall be held in trust for Agent and promptly paid over to Agent (for application to the Obligations) unless otherwise directed in writing by Agent.
(j) Copies. The Grantors shall deliver copies of such policies or the related certificates evidencing that Agent is listed as Purchaser loss payee on property insurance and as additional insured on liability insurance within 10 days of closing and at the time any new policy of insurance is issued.
(k) Permitted Encumbrances. The Grantors shall not prepay or amend any obligations secured by the Permitted Encumbrances without the prior written consent of the Required Purchasers.

Each Grantor also hereby ratifies any and all financing statements or amendments previously filed by Agent in any jurisdiction.
(d) Each Grantor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement filed in connection with this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent, subject to such Grantor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the Code.

Agent Right to Perform Contracts, Exercise Rights, etc. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent on behalf of Secured Parties (or its designee) (a) may proceed to perform any and all of the obligations of any Grantor contained in any contract, lease, or other agreement and exercise any and all rights of any Grantor therein contained as fully as such Grantor itself could, (b) shall have the right to use any Grantor’s rights under Intellectual Property Licenses in connection with the enforcement of the Agent’s or Secured Parties’ rights hereunder, including the right to prepare for sale and sell any and all Inventory and Equipment now or hereafter owned by any Grantor and now or hereafter covered by such licenses, but only to the extent permitted by such licenses or the licensors thereunder or applicable law, and (c) shall have the right to request that any Stock that is pledged hereunder be registered in the name of Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties or any of their nominees.
17
10. Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Notes, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including:

(g) Agent on behalf of Secured Parties shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights and Intellectual Property Licenses and, if Agent shall commence any such suit, the appropriate Grantor shall, at the request of Secured Party, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents reasonably required by Secured Party in aid of such enforcement.
To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.
18
11. Agent or Secured Parties May Perform. If any of Grantors fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Agent or Secured Parties may perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or Secured Parties incurred in connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors.
12. Appointment of Agent by Purchasers; Agent’s and Secured Parties’ Duties.
(a) Appointment of Agent. Each Purchaser hereby appoints Genesis Capital Management, LLC (together with any successor Agent appointed hereunder) as Agent under this Security Agreement and the Intellectual Property Security Agreements (collectively, with all related and incidental documents, the “Security Documents”) and authorizes Agent to (a) execute and deliver the Security Documents and accept delivery thereof on its behalf from Grantors, (b) take such action on its behalf and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies and perform the duties as are expressly delegated to Agent under such Security Documents and (c) exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 9 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Purchasers and none of Grantors nor any other person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Security Documents, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Purchasers and does and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Grantor or any other person. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Security Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement, any other Security Document or otherwise a fiduciary or trustee relationship in respect of any Purchaser. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Security Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for failure to disclose, any information relating to any Grantor that is communicated to or obtained by Genesis Capital Management, LLC or any of its affiliates in any capacity.
(b) Agent’s Rights, etc. Without limiting the generality of clause (a) above, Agent shall have the right and authority, and is hereby authorized, to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Purchasers with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Security Documents (including in any other bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding), and each person making any payment in connection with any Security Document to any Purchaser is hereby authorized to make such payment to Agent, (ii) file and prove claims and file other documents necessary or desirable to allow the claims of Agent and Purchasers with respect to any Obligation in any proceeding described in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding (but not to vote, consent or otherwise act on behalf of such Purchaser), (iii) act as collateral agent for Agent and each Purchaser for purposes of the perfection of all liens created by the Security Documents and all other purposes stated therein, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral, (v) take such other action as is necessary or desirable
19

Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Security Document by or through any trustee, co-agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other person (including any Purchaser). Any such person shall benefit from this Article 9 to the extent provided by Agent.
(c) Agent’s Requests, etc. If Agent shall request instructions from Requisite Purchasers or all affected Purchasers with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Security Document, then Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Purchasers or all affected Purchasers, as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any person by reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Security Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or any Security Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to any potential liability under any law, statute or regulation or (c) if Agent shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Purchaser shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Security Document in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Purchasers or all affected Purchasers, as applicable.
(d) Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents, employees or representatives shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Security Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until such Note has been assigned in accordance with Section 10.1; (b) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts, whether or not selected by it, and shall not be liable for
20
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) shall not be responsible or otherwise incur liability for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions of the Requisite Purchasers, (d) makes no warranty or representation to any Purchaser and shall not be responsible to any Purchaser for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Security Documents; (e) shall not have any duty to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) or to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Security Document, whether any condition set forth in any Security Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Grantor or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from Grantors or any Purchaser describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default”; (f) shall not be responsible to any Purchaser for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the attachment, perfection or priority of any lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Security Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (g) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Security Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties.
(e) Genesis Capital Management, LLC and Affiliates. Genesis Capital Management, LLC shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Security Documents as any other Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the term “Purchaser” or “Purchasers” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Genesis Capital Management, LLC in its individual capacity. Genesis Capital Management, LLC and its affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Grantors, any of their Affiliates and any person who may do business with or own securities of Grantors, any Subsidiaries of any Grantor or any such Affiliate, all as if Genesis Capital Management, LLC were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Purchasers. Genesis Capital Management, LLC and its affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from Grantor for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Purchasers. Each Purchaser acknowledges the potential conflict of interest between Genesis Capital Management, LLC as a Purchaser holding disproportionate interests in the Notes and Genesis Capital Management, LLC as Agent, and expressly consents to, and waives, any claim based upon, such conflict of interest.
(f) Purchaser Credit Decision. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Purchaser and based on such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial analysis of each Grantor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Purchaser also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it shall
21
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Each Purchaser acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Purchaser as a result of Purchasers holding disproportionate interests in the Notes, and expressly consents to, and waives, any claim based upon, such conflict of interest.
(g) Indemnification. Purchasers shall and do hereby indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Grantors and without limiting the obligations of Grantors hereunder), ratably according to their respective pro rata shares from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Security Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in connection therewith; provided that no Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, each Purchaser agrees to reimburse Agent promptly upon demand for its pro rata share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Security Document, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Grantors. The provisions of this paragraph (g) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(h) Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to Purchasers and Grantors. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Purchasers shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Purchasers and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of Purchasers, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Purchaser, if a Purchaser is willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or financial institution if such commercial bank or financial institution is organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $300,000,000. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing, within 30 days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and the Requisite Purchasers shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Purchasers appoint a successor Agent as provided above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent’s resignation, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
22
obligations under this Agreement and the other Security Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent under this Agreement and the other Security Documents.
(i) No Imposition of Duties. The powers conferred on Agent and Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect Agent and Secured Parties’ interest in the Collateral, and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Agent and each Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Agent and each Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Agent or such Secured Party accords its own property.
13. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent or Agent’s designee may notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral have been assigned to Agent or that Agent has a security interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the Transaction Documents.
14. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(a) Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Transaction Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any of Grantors or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Inventory, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or other disposition, at any of Agent’s offices or
23
elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent may disclaim any and all representations and warranties in connection with any such sale or other disposition. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to any of Grantors of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Agent 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.
(b) Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, other industrial or intellectual property or any property of a similar nature, whether owned by any of Grantors or with respect to which any of Grantors have rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements, (but only to the extent (i) such license, sublicense or agreement does not prohibit such use by Agent and (ii) such Grantor will not be in default under such license, sublicense or other agreement as a result of such use by Agent) as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of Secured Party.
(c) Any cash held by Agent or Secured Parties as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Agent or Secured Parties in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization in any manner upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Purchasers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; SECOND, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the Purchasers in connection with enforcing its rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; THIRD, to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees and interest pro rata among the Purchasers based on the principal outstanding of each Note in relation to the aggregate principal outstanding of all Notes; FOURTH to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes pro rata among the Purchasers based on the principal outstanding of each Note in relation to the aggregate principal outstanding of all Notes; and FIFTH to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
24
In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such deficiency.
(d) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arose out of a commercial transaction.
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser or the Agent to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose; provided that any Purchaser protecting and enforcing its rights hereunder shall give prior written notice to each other Purchaser and the Agent thereof and all collections shall be applied as set forth in Section 14.
15. Remedies Cumulative.
(a) Each right, power, and remedy of each Secured Party as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Agent or any Secured Party, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Agent or any Secured Party of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.
(b) Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and subject to Section 9.8(e), each Purchaser is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time upon the direction of Agent, without notice to Grantors or any other person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to offset and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of Grantors (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Grantors) and any other properties or assets at any time held or owing by that Purchaser or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of Grantors against and on account of any of the Obligations that are not paid when due. Any Purchaser exercising a right of setoff or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Obligations in excess of its pro rata share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other Purchasers or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Purchaser’s or holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Purchaser to share the amount so offset or otherwise received with each other Purchaser or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Obligations. Grantors agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Purchaser may exercise its right to offset with respect to amounts in excess of its pro rata share of the Obligations
25
and may sell participations in such amounts so offset to other Purchasers and holders and (b) any Purchaser so purchasing a participation in the Notes made or other Obligations held by other Purchasers or holders may exercise all rights of offset, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Purchaser or holder were a direct holder of the Notes and the other Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the offset amount or payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from the Purchaser that has exercised the right of offset, the purchase of participations by that Purchaser shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest. The term “pro rata share” means, with respect to any Purchaser at any time, the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the principal amount of the Notes held by such Purchaser at that time by (y) the aggregate amount of Notes outstanding.
16. Marshaling. Agent and Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor 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 Agent’s and Secured Parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
17. Indemnity and Expenses.
(a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify Agent and each Secured Party from and against all claims, lawsuits and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) growing out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement) or any other Transaction Document to which such Grantor is a party, except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, and subject to any other express limitations set forth in the Transaction Documents. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Secured Obligations.
(b) Grantors, jointly and severally, shall, upon demand, pay to Agent all the fees, costs, charges and expenses which Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or, upon an Event of Default, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Agent or Secured Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by any of Grantors to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

18. Merger, Amendments; Etc. THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any of Grantors herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and the Requisite Purchasers, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and the Requisite Purchasers and each of Grantors to which such amendment applies.
19. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to Agent and each Secured Party at its address specified in the Purchase Agreement, and to any of the Grantors at their respective addresses specified in the Purchase Agreement, as applicable, or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party.
20. Continuing Security Interest: Assignments under Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full or otherwise terminated in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and the Purchase Agreement, (b) be binding upon each of Grantors, and their respective successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, agent and each Secured Party, and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), Agent and each Secured Party may, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and the Purchase Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Notes and the Purchase Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Agent and Secured Parties herein or otherwise. Upon indefeasible payment in full or other termination of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and the Purchase Agreement, the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, Agent and Secured Parties shall authorize the filing of appropriate termination statements to terminate such Security Interests. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Notes, the Purchase Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to Agent or any Secured Party nor any additional loans made by Secured Parties to the Grantors, or any of them, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by Agent or Secured Parties, shall release any of Grantors from
27
any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by Agent and Secured Parties in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and the Purchase Agreement. Agent and Secured Parties shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Agent and Secured Parties and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Agent or Secured Parties of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which Agent or Secured Parties would otherwise have had on any other occasion.
