ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In order to induce Secured Party to enter into this Agreement, Debtors represent and warrant to Secured Party (which representations and warranties will survive the creation of the Secured Indebtedness and the entry into the ISDA) that:

3.1 Ownership and Liens. Except for the security interest of Secured Party granted in this Agreement or in any of the other ISDA Documents and any Permitted Lien (as defined in the Mortgage and in the ISDA), Debtors own Defensible Title to the Collateral free and clear of any other Liens and adverse claims. Debtors have full right, power and authority to grant to Secured Party the security interests, liens and other rights in the Collateral in the manner provided herein, free and clear of any other Liens and adverse claims other than Permitted Liens. No other Lien or adverse claim has been created by any Debtor or is known by any Debtor to exist with respect to any Collateral; and to the knowledge of Debtors, no financing statement or other security instrument is on file in any jurisdiction covering such Collateral (including with regard to Permitted Liens), other than those in favor of Secured Party.

3.2 Status of Accounts. Each Account of each Debtor now existing represents, and each Account of each Debtor hereafter arising will represent, the valid and legally enforceable indebtedness of a bona fide account debtor arising from the sale or lease or rendition by each Debtor of goods and/or services and is not and will not be subject to contra accounts, set-offs, defenses or counterclaims by or available to account debtors obligated on the Accounts of each Debtor except as disclosed to Secured Party in writing. Such goods will have been delivered to, or be in the process of being delivered to, and such services will have been rendered by each Debtor to the account debtor and accepted by the account debtor. The amount shown as to each Account of each Debtor on each Debtor’s books will be the true and undisputed amount owing and unpaid thereon, subject to any discounts, allowances, rebates, credits and adjustments to which the account debtor has a right and which are in the ordinary course of business and properly accounted for in each Debtor’s financial statements that have been delivered or are hereafter delivered to Secured Party.

3.3 Status of Related Rights. All Related Rights of Debtor are, and those hereafter arising will be, valid and genuine. Any chattel paper included in the Related Rights has, and those hereafter arising will have, only one duplicate original counterpart which constitutes chattel paper or collateral within the meaning of the Code or the law of any applicable jurisdiction.

3.4 Location. Each Debtor’s chief executive office and chief place of business is located at the address set forth in the preamble of this Agreement. The office where each Debtor keeps its records concerning the Accounts of Debtor and the General Intangibles of Debtor and the original of all the Related Rights of Debtor are located at the same address as such Debtor’s address set forth in the preamble of this Agreement. The jurisdiction of organization for each Debtor is the State of Nevada.

3.5 Secured Party’s Security Interest. This Agreement creates a valid and binding security interest in the Collateral securing the Secured Indebtedness. All filings (which filings are described in Section 4.7 of this Agreement) and other actions necessary or desirable to perfect or protect such security interest have been duly or will be immediately taken by Debtors. No further or subsequent filing, recording, registration or other public notice of such security interest is necessary in any office or jurisdiction in order to perfect such security interest or to continue, preserve or protect such security interest except for continuation statements or for filings upon the occurrence of any of the events stated in Section 4.7 of this Agreement. To the extent such security interest can be perfected under the Code, such perfected security interest in the Collateral constitutes a first-priority (except as to Permitted Liens) security interest under the Code.

5.2 Default Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Secured Party may then, or at any time thereafter and from time to time, apply, set-off, collect, sell in one or more sales, lease, or otherwise dispose of, any or all of the Collateral, in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, in such order as Secured Party may elect, and any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at its place of business or elsewhere, or at any brokers’ board or securities exchange, either for cash or upon credit or for future delivery, at such price as Secured Party may deem fair, and Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold and may hold the same thereafter in its own right free from any claim of Debtors or right of redemption. No such purchase or holding by Secured Party shall be deemed retention by Secured Party in satisfaction of the Secured Indebtedness. All demands, notices and advertisements, and the presentment of Assets at sale are hereby waived. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any applicable provision of the Code or other law requires Secured Party to give reasonable notice of any such sale or disposition or other action, Debtors hereby agree that twenty calendar days’ prior written notice shall constitute commercially reasonable notice.

Secured Party shall have the right to so set-off and apply such Assets against the Secured Indebtedness regardless of whether or not Secured Party shall have made any demand for payment of any of the Secured Indebtedness or shall have given any other notice. Secured Party agrees to promptly notify Debtors after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure of Secured Party to give any such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of Secured Party under this Section 5.3 are in addition to Secured Party’s other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off).

5.4 Proceeds. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral and all sums received or collected by Secured Party from or on account of the Collateral shall be applied by Secured Party as follows:

SECOND: to any and all Secured Indebtedness until paid in full, application to be made in such order and in such manner as the holder of said Secured Indebtedness may, in its discretion, elect; and

THIRD: the balance, if any, to Debtors or their successors or assigns.

5.5 Secured Party’s Duties. The powers conferred upon Secured Party by this Agreement are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Secured Party shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give any presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor or other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Secured Indebtedness, or to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties. Secured Party shall not be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Secured Indebtedness or Collateral, or for any delay in so doing, nor shall Secured Party be under any duty to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. Secured Party shall use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession, but need not take any steps to keep the Collateral identifiable. Secured Party shall have no duty to comply with any recording, filing or other legal requirements necessary to establish or maintain the validity, priority or enforceability of, or Secured Party’s rights in or to, any of the Collateral.

5.6 Secured Party’s Actions. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Debtor waives any right to require Secured Party to proceed against any Person, exhaust any Collateral or pursue any other remedy in Secured Party’s power, and each Debtor waives any and all notice of acceptance of this Agreement or of creation, modification, rearrangement, renewal or extension for any period of any of the Secured Indebtedness from time to time. All dealings between Debtors and Secured Party, whether or not resulting in the creation of the Secured Indebtedness, shall conclusively be presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtors authorize Secured Party, without notice or demand and without any reservation of rights against Debtors and without affecting Debtors’ liability hereunder or on the Secured Indebtedness, from time to time to (a) take and hold any other Assets as collateral, other than the Collateral, as security for any or all of the Secured Indebtedness and exchange, enforce, waive and release any or all of the Collateral or such other Assets; and (b) apply the Collateral or such other Assets and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Secured Party in its discretion may determine.

5.7 Transfer of Secured Indebtedness and Collateral.

Secured Party may at any time deliver any or all of the Collateral to Debtors whose receipt shall be a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and Secured Party shall thereafter be discharged from any liability therefor.

5.8 Cumulative Security. The execution and delivery of this Agreement in no manner shall impair or affect any other security (by endorsement or otherwise) for the Secured Indebtedness. No security taken hereafter as security for the Secured Indebtedness shall impair in any manner or affect this Agreement. All such now existing security and hereafter arising or acquired additional security is to be considered as cumulative security.

5.9 Continuing Agreement. This is a continuing Agreement and the grant of the security interests, liens and other rights hereunder shall remain in full force and effect and all the rights, powers and remedies of Secured Party hereunder shall continue to exist until the Secured Indebtedness is paid in full as the same become due and payable and the ISDA has been fully satisfied and discharged in accordance with its terms (other than the indemnity obligations and other continuing obligations under the ISDA that survive).

5.10 Cumulative Rights. The rights, powers and remedies of Secured Party hereunder shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given by statute or rule of law and are cumulative. The exercise of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies provided herein shall not be construed as a waiver of any other rights, powers and remedies of Secured Party. Furthermore, regardless of whether or not the Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights, powers and remedies are asserted, Secured Party shall have the rights, powers and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Secured Party may exercise its lien or right of set-off with respect to the Secured Indebtedness in the same manner as if the Secured Indebtedness was unsecured.

5.11 Non-Judicial Remedies. Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to) enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, and each Debtor expressly waives, renounces and knowingly relinquishes any and all legal rights which might otherwise require Secured Party to enforce its rights by judicial process. In so providing for non-judicial remedies, each Debtor recognizes and concedes that such remedies are consistent with the usage of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of bargain at arm’s length. Nothing herein is intended to prevent Secured Party from resorting to judicial process at its option.

ARTICLE VI
MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 Exercise of Rights; Waivers; Amendments. Time shall be of the essence for the performance by Debtors of any act under this Agreement or in connection with the Secured Indebtedness, but Secured Party’s acceptance of partial or delinquent payments nor any forbearance, failure or delay by Secured Party in exercising any right, power or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver of any obligation of Debtors or of any right, power or remedy of Secured Party or preclude any other or further exercise thereof; and no single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof. Secured Party may remedy any default hereunder or in connection with the Secured Indebtedness without waiving the default so remedied, or waive any default hereunder or in connection with the Secured Indebtedness without waiving any other default including, without limitation, other occurrences of the same default, nor shall such action by Secured Party waive any prior or subsequent default. Each Debtor hereby agrees that if Secured Party agrees to a waiver of any provision hereunder, or an exchange of or release of the Collateral, or the addition to or release of any obligor or other person or entity, any such action shall not constitute a waiver of any of Secured Party’s other rights or of each Debtor’s obligations hereunder. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing executed by Debtors and Secured Party.

6.2 Liability for Deficiency. Neither the acceptance of this Agreement by Secured Party nor any action taken pursuant hereto shall be construed as relieving any party liable for the Secured Indebtedness or from any other liability or deficiency thereon. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not in any manner affect any other security for the Secured Indebtedness, nor shall any security taken hereafter as security for the Secured Indebtedness impair or affect this Agreement.
