to certain Collateral (as defined below), pursuant to the terms and conditions
of this Security Agreement;
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations,
warranties, covenants and conditions set forth below, the parties hereto,
intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. SECURITY.
1.1 Grant
of Security Interest. As security for the prompt and punctual
payment and performance of all Indebtedness (as defined below) of the Maker to
the Holder when and as due under the Note, the Maker hereby grants to the Holder
a senior security interest in the Collateral (as defined below). For
purposes of this Security Agreement, “Indebtedness”
means all obligations and liabilities of the Maker to the Holder under (i) the
Note issued to the Holder, and (ii) this Security Agreement.
1.2 Collateral
Defined. As used in this Security Agreement, the term “Collateral”
means the Membership Interest and all proceeds thereof.
1
1.3 First
Priority Security Interest. It is the intention of the parties
to create in Holder a first priority security interest in the Collateral, and
Maker shall take all necessary actions to cause the security interest created
hereby to have such priority. So long as any Indebtedness to the
Holder has not been fully satisfied, the Maker will promptly execute and deliver
to the Holder such assignments, notices, financing statements or other documents
and papers as the Holder may reasonably require in order to perfect and maintain
the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Holder hereby and to give
any third party notice of the Holder’s interest in the Collateral. Upon the full
and final discharge of all of the Indebtedness, the Holder will execute and
deliver such documents, notices, termination statements or other documents and
papers as may be reasonably necessary and requested by the Maker to release the
Collateral from the security interest granted to the Holder in this Security
Agreement.
2. RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.
2.1 General
Remedies. In the event of an occurrence of an Event of Default
(as that term is defined in the Note), in addition to exercising any other
rights or remedies the Holder may have under the Note, at law or in equity, or
pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code, the Holder
may, at its option, and without demand first made, exercise any one or all of
the following rights and remedies: (i) collect the Collateral and its proceeds;
(ii) take possession of the Collateral wherever it may be found, using all
reasonable means to do so, or require the Maker to assemble the Collateral and
make it available to the Holder at a place designated by the Holder that is
reasonably convenient to the Maker; (iii) proceed with the foreclosure of the
security interest in the Collateral granted herein and the sale or endorsement
and collection of the proceeds of the Collateral in any manner permitted by law
or provided for herein; (iv) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral
at public or private sale, with or without having the Collateral at the place of
sale; (v) institute a suit or other action against the Maker for recovery on the
Note or to obtain possession or effect a sale of the Collateral; (vi) exercise
any rights and remedies of a secured party under the Delaware Uniform Commercial
Code; and/or (vii) offset, against any payment due from the Maker to the Holder,
the whole or any part of any Indebtedness of the Holder to the
Maker.
2.2 Limited
Power of Attorney. After an Event of Default resulting in the
enforcement of the rights hereunder, the Maker does hereby make, constitute and
appoint the Holder or any agent of the Holder as the Maker's true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, with power to (a) sign any assignments of the leases or
subleases included in the Collateral reasonably necessary to return such leases
or subleases to Holder, and (b) endorse the name of the Maker or any of the
Maker's mangers, officers or agents upon any notes, checks, drafts, money
orders, or other instruments of payment or Collateral that may come into the
Holder’s (including any agent of Holder) possession in full or part payment of
any Indebtedness. The Maker hereby ratifies all that said attorney
shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of
attorney is coupled with an interest, and is irrevocable.
2
2.3 No
Election of Remedies. The election by the Holder of any right
or remedy will not prevent the Holder from exercising any other right or remedy
against the Maker.
2.4 Proceeds. If
an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) occurs, all proceeds and payments
with respect to the Collateral will be retained by the Holder (or if received by
the Maker will be held in trust and will be forthwith delivered by the Maker to
the Holder in the original form received, endorsed in blank) and held by the
Holder as part of the Collateral or applied by the Holder to the payment of the
Indebtedness.
2.5 Sales
of Collateral. Any item of Collateral may be sold for cash or
other value at public or private sale or other disposition and the proceeds
thereof collected by or for the Holder as provided in the Delaware Uniform
Commercial Code or under other applicable law. The Maker agrees to
promptly execute and deliver, or promptly cause to be executed and delivered,
such instruments, documents, assignments, waivers, certificates and affidavits
and supply or cause to be supplied such further information and take such
further action as the Holder may reasonably require in connection with any such
sale or disposition. The Holder will have the right upon any such
public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private
sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free
of any right or equity of redemption in the Maker, which right or equity is
hereby waived or released. If any notice of a proposed sale, lease,
license or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice
shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before
such sale, lease, license or other disposition. The Holder agrees to
give the Maker ten (10) days’ prior written notice of any sale, lease, license
or other disposition of Collateral (or any part thereof) by the
Holder.
2.6 Application
of Proceeds. The proceeds of all sales and collections in
respect of the Collateral, the application of which is not otherwise
specifically herein provided for, will be applied as follows: (i)
first, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale or sales; (ii)
second, any surplus then remaining will be applied to the payment of unpaid
principal under the Note; and (iii) third, any surplus then remaining will be
paid to the Maker.
2.7 Warranties
and Representations. Maker warrants and represents that as of
the Closing Date, Maker has good, indefeasible and merchantable title to and
ownership of the Collateral, free and clear of all liens.
2.8 Covenants. Until
the Indebtedness are fully paid, performed and satisfied and this Agreement is
terminated, Maker covenants that it shall:
2.8.1 Defend in
good faith the Collateral against the claims and demands of all
persons;
2.8.2 Advise
Holder in writing, at least thirty (30) days prior thereto, of any change in
Maker’s principal place of business, registered office or other places of
business, or the opening of any new places of business, or any change in Maker’s
name or the adoption by Maker of trade names, assumed names or fictitious
names;
3
2.8.3 Notify
Holder in writing immediately upon the creation of any Accounts (as defined by
the UCC) with respect to which the account debtor is the United States of
America or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof, or any foreign
government or instrumentality thereof or any business which is located in a
foreign country;
2.8.4 Xxxx its
books and records of Accounts to indicate the security interest granted to

the value thereof, or the rights of Holder with respect
thereto;
