any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any right in respect of any
Collateral;
(v) to
defend
any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Securing Party with respect
to any Collateral;
(vi) to
settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in
subsection (v) above and to give such discharges or releases in connection
therewith as the Secured Party may deem appropriate;
(vii) to
assign
any patent right included in the Collateral of the Securing Party (along with
the goodwill of the business to which any such patent right pertains),
throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such
manner, as the Secured Party shall in its sole discretion determine;
and
(viii) generally,
to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise
deal with any of the Collateral and to take, at the Secured Party’s option and
the Securing Party’s expense, any actions which the Secured Party deems
necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured
Party’s Lien on the Collateral and to carry out the intent of this Agreement, in
each case to the same extent as if the Secured Party was the absolute owner
of
the Collateral for all purposes.
The
Securing Party hereby ratifies whatever actions the Secured Party shall lawfully
do or cause to be done in accordance with this Section 4. This power of attorney
shall be a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.
(e) No
Duty on the Secured Party’s Part.
The
powers conferred on the Secured Party by this Section 4 are solely to protect
the Secured Party’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty
upon it to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable
only
for amounts that they actually received as a result of the exercise of such
powers, and no action taken by the Secured Party or any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents or omitted to be taken by any such Persons
pursuant to this Section 4 shall give rise to any defense, counterclaim or
offset in favor of Securing Party or affect any of the Obligations.

5. Filing
Agent.
(a) Appointment.
The
Secured Party hereby appoints any of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
and Xxxx X. Xxxxx as agent for filing purposes for the Secured Party under
this
Agreement (in such capacity, the “Filing
Agent”)
to
serve from the date hereof until the termination of this Agreement.
(b) Powers
and Duties of Filing Agent, Indemnity by the Secured
Party.
The
Secured Party hereby irrevocably authorizes the Filing Agent to take any action
and to exercise any power in the name of the Secured Party and on its behalf,
as
shall be required and as shall be requested by the Securing Party, solely for
the purpose of filing any registration or application at or with any
governmental authority, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Filing Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through
agents or employees and shall be entitled to request and act in reliance upon
the advise of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder
and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in
good faith in accordance therewith.
Neither
the Filing Agent nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable
or responsible to the Secured Party or to the Securing Party for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by the Filing Agent or any other such person
hereunder or under any related agreement, instrument or document, except in
the
case of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Filing Agent,
nor shall the Filing Agent or any of its directors, officers or employees be
liable or responsible for (A) the validity, effectiveness, sufficiency,
enforceability or enforcement of the Notes, this Agreement or any instrument
or
document delivered hereunder or relating hereto; (B) the title of the
Company to any of the Collateral or the freedom of the Collateral from any
prior
or other liens or security interests; (C) the determination, verification
or enforcement of the Company’s compliance with any of the terms and conditions
of this Agreement; (D) the failure by the Company to deliver any instrument
or document required to be delivered pursuant to the terms hereof; or
(E) the receipt, disbursement, waiver, extension or other handling of
payments or proceeds made or received with respect to the Collateral, the
servicing of the Collateral or the enforcement or the collection of any amounts
owing with respect to the Collateral.
In
the
case of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any related
document relating to any of the Collateral, the Secured Party agrees to pay
to
the Filing Agent, on demand, all fees and all expenses incurred in connection
with the operation and enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes or any related
agreement to the extent that such fees or expenses have not been paid by the
Company. In connection to this Agreement, and each instrument and document
relating to any of the Collateral, the Secured Party and the Securing Party
hereby agree to hold the Filing Agent harmless, and to indemnify the Filing
Agent from and against any and all loss, damage, expense or liability which
may
be incurred by the Filing Agent under this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, unless such liability shall be caused by the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of the Filing Agent; provided,
however,
that
the Secured Party shall only be required to indemnify the Filing Agent for
up to
an amount equal to the amount paid by the Secured Party pursuant to the Notes
issued to the Secured Party.
6.
Performance
by the Secured Party of the Securing Party’s
Obligations.
If the
Securing Party fails to per-form or comply with any of its representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and the Secured
Party performs or complies, or otherwise causes performance or compliance,
with
such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, then the reasonable expenses of the Secured Party
incurred in connection with such performance or compliance shall be payable
by
the Securing Party to the Secured Party on demand and
shall
constitute Obligations secured
by this Agreement.
7. Remedies.
If an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Secured Party may exercise,
in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement
and
in any other instrument or agreement relating to the Obligations, all rights
and
remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the foregoing,
the
Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment,
protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by
law
or expressly required herein) to or upon the Securing Party or any other person
(all of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived),
may in such circumstances exercise any and all of the following rights and
remedies, all of which shall be cumulative and not mutually exclusive:
(a) The
Secured Party may declare by written notice to the Company the Notes, including
principal plus any accrued interest and any other amounts owing thereunder,
immediately due and payable;
(b)
The
Secured Party may collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any or all
of
the Collateral; and/or
(c) The
Secured Party may sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase,
or
otherwise dispose of and deliver any or all of the Collateral (or contract
to do
any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or
sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Secured Party or
elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as the Secured Party may deem
advisable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption
of
any credit risk. The Secured Party shall 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 all or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right
or equity of redemption in the Securing Party, which right or equity is hereby
waived or released.
7
8. Application
of Proceeds.
The
Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt,
appropriation, realization, sale or other sum received or collected by the
Secured Party, whether before or after an Event of Default, on account of the
Collateral, after deducting all reasonable expenses incurred therein or in
connection with the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any
way
relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Party under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses), to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order
as the Secured Party may elect, and only after such application and after the
payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision
of
law. Any remaining surplus shall be paid to the Securing Party without demand.
If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be
required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given
at
least ten days before such sale or other disposition. The Securing Party shall
remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the
reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Secured
Party
to collect such deficiency.
9. Limitation
on Duties Regarding Preservation of Collateral.
The
Secured Party’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
preservation of the Collateral, under Section 9207 of the UCC or otherwise,
shall be to use reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof. Neither
the Secured Party nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees
or
agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or
any
part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any
obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request
of
the Securing Party or otherwise.
10. No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.
The
Secured Party shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant
to
Section 12(a) hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed
to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any
default under the Notes or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions
of
this Agreement. No failure to exer-cise, nor any delay in exercising, on the
part of the Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate
as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Secured Party
of any right or remedy under this Agreement on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Secured Party would
otherwise have on any subsequent occasion. The rights and remedies provided
in
this Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and
are
not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
11. Termination
of Security Interest.
Upon
satisfaction of the Securing Party’s Obligations pursuant to the Notes and this
Agreement, the security interest granted herein shall terminate and all rights
to the Collateral shall revert to the Securing Party. Upon any such termination,
the Secured Party shall authenticate and deliver to the Securing Party such
documents as the Securing Party may reasonably request to evidence such
termination.
12. Miscellaneous.
(a) Amendments
and Waivers.
This
Agreement may be amended or terminated and the observance of any term of this
Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), with the written consent of the Company and
the
Secured Party.
(b) Transfer;
Successors and Assigns.
The
terms
and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Securing Party and
its successors and assigns, as well as all persons who become bound as a
Securing Party to this Agreement and inure to the benefit of the Secured Party
and its successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied,
is intended to confer upon any parties other than the parties hereto or their
respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations
or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly
provided in this Agreement.
8
(c)
Arbitration. Each
party agrees that any dispute, controversy, or claim arising in relation to
this
Agreement, including with regard to its validity, invalidity, breach,
enforcement or termination, shall be resolved by binding arbitration in London,
England, in accordance with the rules of arbitration which are in force in
the
United Kingdom on the date when the notice of arbitration is submitted. The
arbitrability of such dispute, claim or controversy shall also be determined
in
such arbitration. Such arbitration proceeding shall be conducted in the English
language before one (1) arbitrator agreed to by the parties. Both the foregoing
agreement of the parties to arbitrate any and all such disputes, claims and
controversies, and the results, determinations, findings, judgments and/or
awards rendered through any such arbitration shall be final and binding on
the
parties hereto and may be specifically enforced by legal proceedings.

This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
be
deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
Either or all parties may execute this Agreement by facsimile signature or

taxes based on or measured by the net income of the Secured Party. In addition,
the Securing Party shall pay upon demand any stamp or other taxes, levies or

the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for
such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this
Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if
such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement
shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(i) Entire
Agreement.
This
Agreement, and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement
between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof.
(j) Confidentiality.
The
Secured Party agrees to use the same degree of care as Secured Party uses to
protect its own confidential information to keep confidential any information
furnished to such Secured Party pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Note
and
Warrant Purchase Agreement, the Notes or this Agreement that the Company
identifies as being confidential or proprietary (so long as such information
is
not in the public domain), except that the Secured Party may disclose such
proprietary or confidential information (i) to any partner, subsidiary or parent
of such Secured Party as long as such partner, subsidiary or parent is advised
of and agrees or has agreed to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of
this Section 11(j) or comparable restrictions; (ii) at such time as it
enters the public domain through no fault of such Secured Party; (iii) that
is
communicated to it free of any obligation of confidentiality; (iv) that is
developed by such Secured Party or its agents independently of and without
reference to any confidential information communicated by the Company; or (v)
as
required by applicable law.
(k) Governing
Law.
