with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under §9- 207 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the Secured
Party deals with similar property for its own account.
10. Securities and Deposits. The Secured Party may at any time following and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, at its option, transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral, receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or apply it to the
Obligations. Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Secured Party may, following and during the continuance of an Event of Default demand, sue for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it deems desirable with respect to the
Collateral. Regardless of the adequacy of Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Secured Party to the Grantor may at any time be applied to or set off against any of
the Obligations then due and owing.
10
11. Notification to Account Debtors and Other Persons Obligated on Collateral. If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing:
(a) each Grantor shall, at the request and option of the Secured Party, notify account debtors and other Persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the security
interest of the Secured Party in any account, chattel paper, general intangible, instrument or other Collateral and that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Secured Party or to any financial institution designated by the Secured Party as
the Secured Party’s agent therefor;
(b) the Secured Party may itself, without notice to or demand upon any Grantor, so notify account debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral;
(c) after the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, each Grantor shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general
intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by such Grantor as trustee for the Secured Party, for the benefit of the Secured Party, without commingling the same with other funds of such Grantor and shall turn the same over to the Secured
Party in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments; and
(d) the Secured Party shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral and received by the Secured
Party to the payment of the Obligations, such proceeds to be immediately credited after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise to them.
12. Power of Attorney.
12.1. Appointment and Powers of Secured Party. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party and any officer or agent thereof,
with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor or in the Secured Party’s own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this
Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or useful to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, xxxxxx gives
said attorneys the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do the following:
(a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise dispose of
or deal with any of the Collateral in such manner as is consistent with the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction and as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes, and to do, at such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party deems necessary or useful to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party’s security interest
therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all no less fully and effectively as such Grantor might do, including (i) upon written notice to such Grantor, the exercise of voting rights with respect to voting securities, which rights may
be exercised, if the Secured Party so elects, with a view to causing the liquidation of assets of the issuer of any such securities and (ii) the execution, delivery and recording, in connection with any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, of
the endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such Collateral; and
11
(b) to the extent that such Grantor’s authorization given in §3 is not sufficient, to file such financing statements with respect hereto, with or without such Grantor’s
signature, or a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as the Secured Party may deem appropriate and to execute in such Grantor’s name such financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which
may require such Grantor’s signature.
12.2. Ratification by Grantor. To the extent permitted by law, the Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
12.3. No Duty on Secured Party. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Party in
the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor
any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to each Grantor for any act or failure to act, except for the Secured Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
13. Rights and Remedies.
13.1. General. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Party, without any other notice to or demand upon any Grantor, shall have in
any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction and any additional
rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party in any jurisdiction in which Collateral is located, including the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Secured Party may, so far as such Grantor can give
authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom. The Secured Party may in its discretion require each Grantor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or
locations within the jurisdiction(s) of such Grantor’s principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Secured Party may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market, the Secured Party shall give to such Grantor at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any
other intended disposition is to be made. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that ten (10) Business Days prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In addition, each Grantor waives any and all rights that it may have to
a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Secured Party’s rights and remedies hereunder, including its right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights and remedies
with respect thereto.
12
14. Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on
the Secured Party to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Secured Party (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Secured
Party to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be
disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against
account debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on the Collateral directly or
through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of the Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact
other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of the Collateral, whether
or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of the Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that
match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Secured Party against risks of loss,
collection or disposition of the Collateral or to provide to the Secured Party a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of such Collateral, or (l) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Secured Party, to obtain the services of brokers,
investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Secured Party in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this §14 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what
actions or omissions by the Secured Party would fulfill the Secured Party’s duties under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Secured Party’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other
actions or omissions by the Secured Party shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this §14. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this §14 shall be construed to grant any
rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Secured Party that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this §14.
15. No Waiver by Secured Party, etc. The Secured Party shall not be deemed to have
waived any of its rights and remedies in respect of the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Secured Party. No delay or omission on the part of the Secured Party in exercising any right or remedy
shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Secured Party
with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the
Secured Party deems expedient.
13
16. Suretyship Waivers by Grantor. Each Grantor waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of
this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description. With respect to both the Obligations and the Collateral, each
Grantor assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any security interest in any such Collateral, to the addition or release of any party
or Person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Secured Party may deem advisable. The Secured
Party shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income therefrom, the preservation of rights against prior parties, or the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth
in §9.2. Each Grantor further waives any and all other suretyship defenses.
17. Marshaling. The Secured Party 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 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 rights and
remedies of the Secured Party hereunder and of the Secured Party 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 the Secured Party’s rights and remedies 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,
each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
18. Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. The Grantor shall pay to the Secured Party on demand any and
all reasonable and documented expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, actually incurred or paid by the Secured Party in protecting or preserving the Secured Party’s rights and remedies under or in respect of any of the
Obligations or any of the Collateral and any such expenses actually incurred in releasing any security interest granted hereunder and, in addition, the Grantor shall pay to the Secured Party on demand any and all documented expenses, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, actually incurred or paid by the Secured Party in enforcing the Secured Party’s rights and remedies under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any of the Collateral. After deducting all of said
expenses, the residue of any proceeds of collection or sale or other disposition of Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or preference as is provided in the SPA, proper
allowance and provision being made for any Obligations not then due. Upon the final payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations and after making any payments required by Sections 9-608(a)(1)(C) or 9-615(a)(3) of the Uniform Commercial
Code of the State, any excess shall be returned to the Grantor. In the absence of final payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations, the Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency.
19. Overdue Amounts. Until paid, all amounts due and payable by a Grantor hereunder shall be a
debt secured by the Collateral and shall bear, whether before or after judgment, interest at the rate of interest for overdue principal set forth in the Transaction Documents.
14
20. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT IS A CONTRACT UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
DELAWARE AND SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SAID STATE OF DELAWARE. EACH COMPANY AND THE SECURED PARTY EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER ACTION BROUGHT
BY SUCH PERSON ARISING HEREUNDER OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH
COURT AND SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT BEING MADE UPON SUCH PERSON BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED ON THE SIGNATURE PAGE OF EACH PARTY HERETO. EACH COMPANY AND THE SECURED PARTY EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUIT BROUGHT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY COURT SITTING THEREIN OR THAT A SUIT BROUGHT THEREIN IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT.
21. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH COMPANY AND THE SECURED PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH
RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, each Grantor and the
Secured Party each waives any right which it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages.
Each Grantor (a) certifies that neither the Secured Party nor any representative, agent or attorney of the Secured Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Secured Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the
foregoing waivers or other waivers contained in this Agreement and (b) acknowledges that, in entering into this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which the Secured Party is a party, the Secured Party is relying upon, among other things,
the waivers and certifications contained in this §21.
22. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications hereunder shall be made in the manner set
forth in the SPA.
23. Amendment and Restatement. Notwithstanding this amendment and restatement of the Original
Security Agreement, (i) all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations owing by the Grantor or any other person under the Original Security Agreement shall continue as obligations hereunder, as amended hereby, and shall be and remain secured by
this Agreement, (ii) the security interest granted by the Grantor to the Secured Party, in all of the Grantor’s rights, title and interests in, to and under the assets and properties of the Grantor pursuant to the Original Security Agreement (the “Existing
Security Interest”) shall continue as a security interest hereunder, as amended hereby, and (iii) this Agreement is given as a substitution of, and not as a payment of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of the Grantor under the
Original Security Agreement and neither the execution and deliver of this Agreement nor the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereunder is intended to constitute a novation of the Original Security Agreement or the Existing Security
Interest created thereunder.
15
24. Miscellaneous. The headings of each section of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall
not define or limit the provisions thereof. This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon each Grantor and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Party and its successors and
assigns. If any term of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity of all other terms hereof shall in no way be affected thereby, and this Agreement shall be construed and be enforceable as if such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable term had not been included herein. Each Grantor acknowledges receipt of a copy of this Agreement.
25. Release of Collateral. Upon a sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral
permitted by the Documents, such Collateral shall automatically be released from the Liens created hereby, and all rights to such Collateral shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor; and Secured Party, at the required and sole expense of
such Grantor, shall promptly execute and deliver to the Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. Secured Party agrees that upon payment in full of all
Obligations (other than contingent obligations not due and owing), whether as a result of Conversion or repayment of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, and the termination of any applicable commitments pursuant
to the terms of the Transaction Documents, the security interests granted hereby shall, subject to the Secured Party’s rights of reinstatement set forth in any Transaction Documents, automatically terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall
automatically revert to the applicable Grantor without further action from any Person. Secured Party further agrees that upon any time following such termination of the security interests or release of any Collateral, Secured Party shall, at the
expense of the Grantors, execute and deliver to the Grantors such documents as the Loan Parties shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of the security interests or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be.
26. Termination. Upon indefeasible payment in cash or as a result of Conversion in accordance with the
Transaction Documents and satisfaction in full of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations not due and owing) and termination of all commitments relating thereto, Secured Party shall reassign, redeliver and release (or cause to be so
reassigned, redelivered and released), without recourse upon or warranty by Secured Party, and at the sole expense of the Grantors, to the Grantors, against receipt therefor, such of the Collateral (if any) as shall not have been sold or otherwise
applied by Secured Party pursuant to the terms hereof and not theretofore reassigned, redelivered and released to the Grantors, together with appropriate instruments of reassignment and release.
