Licensor, with full title guarantee, hereby irrevocably pledges and assigns to, and grants Licensee a first priority continuing security interest, lien, claim and encumbrance (the “Security Interest”), with power of sale, in the Licensed Products, including, without limitation, the patents and patent applications set forth on Attachment A (collectively, the “Collateral”), to secure full and prompt satisfaction of Licensor’s obligations hereunder. Licensor agrees not to assign, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any interest therein and, at its own expense, to maintain the Collateral and protect and defend the Collateral against all claims or demands by any person or entity. In addition, Licensor agrees not to grant any license or other right in or to any of the Collateral without the prior written consent of the Licensee in each instance. Licensor hereby grants a power of attorney, coupled with an interest, in favor of Licensee in order to facilitate, perfect and secure Licensee’s rights with respect to the Security Interest, including without limitation to perfect the Security Interest. Licensor and Licensee shall further memorialize the Security Interest pursuant to one or more security agreements which shall contain the foregoing terms and other customary terms. Licensor agrees to take such further actions and execute such further documents and instruments as Licensee may reasonably request in furtherance of the foregoing, including without limitation the Security Agreement (Attachment G). Provided Licensor shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to first obtain funding on an unsecured basis (or secured on collateral other than the Collateral), in the event that: (i) Licensor seeks to obtain secured funding from a third party lender that will result in no less than three million dollars ($3,000,000) of net proceeds to Licensor for use within Licensor’s business (a “Qualified Loan”), and (ii) such third party lender requires a first priority security interest in the Collateral as a condition of making such Qualified Loan, then Licensee shall be given the right of last offer to make such Qualified Loan on the same material terms offered by such third party lender (“Licensee Loan Option”) and, if Licensee does not exercise the Licensee Loan Option, Licensee shall agree to subordinate its Security Interest to such third party secured lender on terms reasonably satisfactory to Licensee.
