8. PARENT’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
8.1 Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues Parent may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:
(a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 7.3 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Parent);
(b) stop advancing money or extending credit for the Borrowers’ benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the Company and Parent;
(c) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Parent considers advisable, notify any Person owing any Borrower money of Parent’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;
(d) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Each Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Parent requests and make it available as Parent designates. Parent may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Each Borrower grants Parent a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Parent’s rights or remedies;
(e) apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of the Borrowers it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Parent owing to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers;
(f) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Parent is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, each Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Parent’s exercise of its rights under this Section, each Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Parent’s benefit;
(g) deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
(h) demand and receive possession of each Borrower’s Books; and
(i) exercise all rights and remedies available to Parent under the Note Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC (including sale, assignment, transfer or other disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof);
10
provided, however, that except with respect to (i) an Insolvency Proceeding or (ii) an Event of Default that does not immediately trigger Parent’s right to terminate the Merger Agreement under the provisions thereof, Parent shall not exercise its rights and remedies under this Section 8.1 unless and until the Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms.
8.2 Power of Attorney. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Parent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse such Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign such Borrower’s name on any invoice or xxxx of lading for any Account or drafts against account debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and on terms Parent determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under such Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Collateral to Parent or a third party as the UCC permits. Each Borrower hereby appoints Parent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign such Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Parent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full. Parent’s foregoing appointment as each Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Parent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Parent’s obligation to provide Loans terminates.
8.3 Protective Payments. If any Borrower fails to maintain the insurance called for by Section 7.01(r) of the Merger Agreement or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which such Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Parent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Parent are immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate charged by Parent, and secured by the Collateral. Parent will make reasonable efforts to provide the Borrower with notice of Parent obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Parent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Parent’s waiver of any Event of Default.
8.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds. The Borrower shall have no right to specify the order or the accounts to which Parent shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by each Borrower to Parent or otherwise received by Parent under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Parent may apply any funds in its possession, whether from the Borrowers’ account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Parent shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to the Borrowers or other Persons legally entitled thereto; the Borrowers shall remain liable to Parent for any deficiency. If Parent, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Parent shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Parent of cash therefore.
11
8.5 Parent’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Parent complies with customary practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Parent, Parent shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. While under the control of the Company, the Company bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
8.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Parent’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Borrowers of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Parent thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Parent and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Parent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Note Documents are cumulative. Parent has all rights and remedies provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. Parent’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Parent’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Parent’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
8.7 Demand Waiver. Each Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Parent on which the Company is liable.
8.8 Costs and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay on demand all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) incurred by Parent in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Note Documents, the enforcement and exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement and the other Note Documents and the administration and perfection of the Collateral.
9. TERMINATION OR RELEASE
9.1 This Agreement and all security interests granted hereby shall terminate with respect to all Obligations when all the outstanding Obligations have been paid in full in cash or offset as permitted hereunder and Parent has no further obligation to lend under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof.
9.2 Upon any sale or other transfer by the Company of any Collateral that is permitted hereunder. Parent shall release its security interest in such Collateral.
9.3 In connection with any such termination or release pursuant to Sections 9.1 or 9.2, Parent shall promptly execute and deliver to the Borrowers, at the Borrowers’ expense, all documents that the Borrowers shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

Each Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Parent and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Parent (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Note Documents; and (b) all losses or costs and expenses incurred, or paid by such Indemnified Person from, following, or arising from transactions between any Borrower and Parent in connection with the Note Documents (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
11.2 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy or the application of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is invalid or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. To such end, the provisions of this Agreement are agreed to be severable. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
11.3 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise); provided that Parent may assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, to any Subsidiary of Parent without obtaining the consent of the Company and any such assignment shall not relieve Parent of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 11.3 shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and effect.
11.4 Governing Law; Forum. (a) All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its rules of conflict of laws.
13
(b) Except as set out below, each of the Borrowers and Parent hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of any court of the State of Delaware or of the United States located in New Castle County, Delaware (the “Delaware Courts”) for any litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Delaware Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Delaware Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any Delaware Court.
11.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other party hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.5.
11.6 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
11.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in two or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
11.8 Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower expects to receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the extension of the Loans established pursuant to this Agreement. In consideration of the foregoing, each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for all of the liabilities, obligations, covenants and agreements of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Note Documents, whether now or hereafter existing or due or to become due. The obligations of the Borrowers under the Note Documents may be enforced by Parent against any Borrower or all Borrowers in any manner or order selected by Parent in its sole discretion. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives (i) any rights of subrogation and (ii) any rights of contribution, indemnity or reimbursement, in each case, that it may acquire or that may arise against any other Borrower due to any payment or performance made under this Agreement, in each case until all Obligations shall have been fully satisfied.
