(a) Debtor is a corporation duly organized and currently existing under Delaware law and is in good standing in any state where Debtor conducts business. The execution, delivery and performance of this Security Agreement are within Debtor’s powers, have been duly authorized, and are not in contravention of law or the terms of Debtor’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, or any indenture, agreement or undertaking to which Debtor is a party, or by which it is bound. Debtor will not change its name, state of formation or type of entity unless written notice is given to Secured Parties at least 30 days in advance.

The Secured Parties’ interest shall be protected in accordance with a standard loss payable clause. In the event of any loss or damage to any Collateral, Debtor will give Secured Parties written notice thereof forthwith, promptly file proof of loss with the appropriate insurer and take all other steps necessary or appropriate to collect such insurance. If the Secured Parties so elect, the Secured Parties shall have full authority to collect all such insurance and to apply any amount collected to amounts owed hereunder, whether or not matured. The Secured Parties shall have no liability for any loss which may occur by reason of the omission or the lack of coverage of any such insurance.

(d) Debtor shall (i) keep such books and records pertaining to the Collateral and to Debtor’s business operations as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Secured Parties; (ii) permit representatives of Secured Parties to inspect the Collateral and inspect and make abstracts from Debtor’s books and records during regular business hours upon at least three days’ notice. If an event of default (as defined in the Debentures) has occurred and is continuing, the Secured Parties are hereby authorized to request confirmation of such information or additional information of any kind whatsoever directly from any third party having dealings with Debtor.
(e) During the continuance of an event of default under the Debentures subject to the rights of the holders of the Permitted Liens, Debtor shall give such notice in writing (including but not limited to notice of assignment or notice to pay the Secured Parties directly) as the Secured Parties may require at any time to any or all account debtors, with respect to accounts which are Collateral, and, if the Secured Parties shall so request, deliver to the Secured Parties copies of any and all such notices.
5
(f) Upon Secured Parties’ reasonable request and subject to the rights of the holders of the Permitted Liens, Debtor shall promptly transmit to Secured Parties all information that it may have or receive with respect to Collateral or with respect to any account debtor which might in any way affect the value of the Collateral or Secured Parties’ rights or remedies with respect thereto.
