3. Representations,
Warranties, Covenants and Agreements of the Obligor. The
Obligor represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Secured
Parties as follows:
(a) The
Obligor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this
Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Obligor of this Agreement and the
filings contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all necessary action on
the part of the Obligor and no further action is required by the
Obligor. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Obligor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights
generally.
(b) The
Obligor represents and warrants that it has no place of business or offices
where its respective books of account and records are kept (other than
temporarily at the offices of its attorneys or accountants), except as set forth
on Schedule
C attached hereto;
(c) Except
as to those liens existing as of the date hereof that were disclosed to the
Secured Parties by the Obligor and are set forth on the attached Schedule
D (the “Permitted Liens”),
the Obligor is the sole owner of the Collateral (except for non-exclusive
licenses granted by the Obligor in the ordinary course of business), free and
clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances, rights or claims, and is
fully authorized to grant the Security Interest in and to pledge the
Collateral. Except as to the Permitted Liens, there is not on file in
any governmental or regulatory authority, agency or recording office an
effective financing statement, security agreement, license or transfer or any
notice of any of the foregoing (other than those that have been filed in favor
of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement) covering or affecting any of
the Collateral. Except as to the Permitted Liens, so long as this
Agreement shall be in effect, the Obligor shall not execute and shall not
knowingly permit to be on file in any such office or agency any such financing
statement or other document or instrument (except to the extent filed or
recorded in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement).
(d) No
part of the Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable. No
written claim has been received that any Collateral or the Obligor’s use of any
Collateral violates the rights of any third party. There has been no adverse
decision to the Obligor’s claim of ownership rights in or exclusive rights to
use the Collateral in any jurisdiction or to the Obligor's right to keep and
maintain such Collateral in full force and effect, and there is no proceeding
involving said rights pending or, to the best knowledge of the Obligor,
threatened before any court, judicial body, administrative or regulatory agency,
arbitrator or other governmental authority.

-
(e) The
Obligor shall at all times maintain its books of account and records relating to
the Collateral at its principal place of business and may not relocate such
books of account and records unless it delivers to the Secured Parties at least
30 days prior to such relocation (i) written notice of such relocation and the
new location thereof (which must be within the United States) and
(ii) evidence that appropriate financing statements and other necessary
documents have been filed and recorded and other steps have been taken to
perfect the Security Interest to create in favor of the Secured Parties a valid,
perfected and continuing lien in the Collateral.
(f) This
Agreement creates in favor of the Secured Parties a valid security interest
(subject only to the Xxxxxxxxx Interest and Additional Lenders’ Interests) in
the Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Obligations and, upon
making the filings described in the immediately following sentence, a perfected
security interest in such Collateral (subject only to the Xxxxxxxxx Interest and
Additional Lenders’ Interests). Except for the filing of financing
statements on Form-1 under the UCC with the jurisdictions indicated on Schedule
E attached hereto, no authorization or approval of or filing with or
notice to any governmental authority or regulatory body is required either (i)
for the grant by the Obligor of, or the effectiveness of, the Security Interest
granted hereby or for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
by the Obligor or (ii) for the perfection of or exercise by the Secured Parties
of its rights and remedies hereunder.
(g) The
Obligor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Secured Parties at any time and from
time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial
financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral
regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls
within the scope of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New
York as amended from time to time (“NYUCC”), or any other
Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction; and (b) contain any other information
required by part 5 of Article 9 of the NYUCC for the sufficiency or filing
office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether the
Obligor is an organization, the type of organization and any organization
identification number issued to the Obligor. The Obligor agrees to furnish any
such information to the Secured Parties promptly upon request. The
Obligor also ratifies its authorization for the Secured Parties to have filed in
any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any like initial financing statements
or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof with respect to the
Collateral.
(h) The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not conflict with or
cause a breach or default, or an event that with or without the passage of time
or notice, shall constitute a breach or default, under any agreement to which
the Obligor is a party or by the Obligor is bound. No consent
(including, without limitation, from stockholders or creditors of the Obligor)
is required for the Obligor to enter into and perform its obligations
hereunder.
(i) The
Obligor shall at all times maintain the liens and Security Interest provided for
hereunder as valid and perfected liens and security interests in the Collateral
in favor of the Secured Parties until this Agreement and the Security Interest
hereunder shall be terminated pursuant to Section 11. The Obligor
hereby agrees to defend the same against any and all persons. The
Obligor shall safeguard and protect all Collateral for the account of the
Secured Parties. At the request of the Secured Parties, the Obligor
will pay the cost of filing one or more financing statements pursuant to the UCC
(or any other applicable statute) in form reasonably satisfactory to the Secured
Parties in all public offices wherever filing is, or is deemed by the Secured
Parties to be, necessary or desirable to effect the rights and obligations
provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Obligor shall pay all fees, taxes and other amounts necessary to maintain the
Collateral and the Security Interest hereunder, and the Obligor shall obtain and
furnish to the Secured Parties from time to time, upon demand, such releases
and/or subordinations of claims and liens which may be required to maintain the
priority of the Security Interest hereunder.

deeds, mortgages, assignments, security agreements, financing statements or

4. Defaults. The following
events shall be “Events of

Notes or Warrants, and failure to cure such breach for ten (10) days after

representation or warranty of the Obligor in this Agreement shall prove to have

occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, the Obligor
shall, upon receipt by it of any revenue, income or other sums subject to the
Security Interest, whether payable pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Note, or

party under the UCC and/or any other applicable law (including the Uniform

terms and conditions as the Secured Parties may deem commercially reasonable,
all without (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be
waived) advertisement or demand upon or notice to the Obligor or right of

7. Applications
of Proceeds.
(a) Subject

be applied first, to the expenses of retaking, holding, storing, processing and
preparing for sale, selling, and the like (including, without limitation, any
taxes, fees and other costs incurred in connection therewith) of the Collateral,

in enforcing its rights hereunder and in connection with collecting, storing and

thereof are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Parties are
legally entitled, the Obligor will be liable for the deficiency, together with
interest thereon, at the rate of 18% per annum (the “Default Rate”), and
the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Secured Parties to collect
such deficiency. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Obligor waives all claims, damages and demands against the Secured Parties
arising out of the repossession, removal, retention or sale of the Collateral,
unless due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured
Parties.
(b) All
ordinary costs and expenses incurred by the Secured Parties in collection of the
Obligations shall be borne exclusively by the Obligor including, without
limitation, any costs, expenses, fees or disbursements incurred by outside
agencies or attorneys retained by the Secured Parties to effect collections of
the Obligations or any Collateral securing the Obligations. The
provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any suits, actions, proceedings
or claims of the nature referred to herein or otherwise which are based upon or
related to the repayment of, or the taking of security for, any loans and/or
advances made by any Secured Parties to the Company that do not arise under the
Loan Agreement or that are not participated in by the Secured Parties, and the
party making such loans and/or advances shall be exclusively responsible for
such suits, actions, proceedings or claims and the payment of all such expenses
in connection therewith.
8. Costs and
Expenses. The
Obligor agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses
incurred in connection with any filing required hereunder, including without
limitation, any financing statements, continuation statements, partial releases
and/or termination statements related thereto or any expenses of any searches
reasonably required by the Secured Parties. The Obligor shall also
pay all other claims and charges which in the reasonable opinion of the Secured
Parties might prejudice, imperil or otherwise affect the Collateral or the
Security Interest therein. The Obligor will also, upon demand, pay to

9. Responsibility
for Collateral. The Obligor assumes all liabilities and
responsibility in connection with all Collateral, and the obligations of the
Obligor hereunder or under the Loan Agreement shall in no way be affected or
diminished by reason of the loss, destruction, damage or theft of any of the
Collateral or its unavailability for any reason.
10. Security
Interest Absolute. All rights of the Secured Parties and all
Obligations of the Obligor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional
(subject only to the Xxxxxxxxx Interest and Additional Lenders’ Interests),
irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement,
the Loan Agreement, or any agreement entered into in connection with the
foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof; (b) any change in the time, manner
or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of
the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any
departure from the Loan Agreement, or any other agreement entered into in
connection with the foregoing; (c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any
of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to
departure from any other collateral for, or any guaranty, or any other security,
for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any action by the Secured Parties to
obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its sole discretion any insurance claims or
matters made or arising in connection with the Collateral; or (e) any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute any legal or equitable defense
available to the Obligor, or a discharge of all or any part of the Security
Interest granted hereby. Until the Obligations shall have been paid
and performed in full, the rights of the Secured Parties shall continue even if
the Obligations are barred for any reason, including, without limitation, the
running of the statute of limitations or bankruptcy. The Obligor
expressly waives presentment, protest, notice of protest, demand, notice of
nonpayment and demand for performance. In the event that at any time any
transfer of any Collateral or any payment received by the Secured Parties
hereunder shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to
have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under the bankruptcy or
insolvency laws of the United States, or shall be deemed to be otherwise due to
any party other than the Secured Parties, then, in any such event, the Obligor’s
obligations hereunder shall survive cancellation of this Agreement, and shall
not be discharged or satisfied by any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation
of this Agreement, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable
in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof. The Obligor
waives all right to require the Secured Parties to proceed against any other
person or to apply any Collateral which the Secured Parties may hold at any
time, or to marshal assets, or to pursue any other remedy. The
Obligor waives any defense arising by reason of the application of the statute
of limitations to any obligation secured hereby.
11. Term of
Agreement. This Agreement and the Security Interest shall
terminate on the repayment of all amounts due the Secured Parties under the Loan
Agreement and the Notes. Upon such termination, the Secured Parties,
at the request and at the expense of the Obligor, will join in executing any
termination statement with respect to any financing statement executed and filed
pursuant to this Agreement.

or unenforceable in any jurisdiction for any reason, unless such provision is

unenforceable. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of
this Agreement is held to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective to
the extent of such invalidity, prohibition or unenforceability without
