THIRD PARTY SECURITY AGREEMENT
THIRD
PARTY
InterActual
Technologies, Inc.
This
Third Party Security Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into
as of
September 28, 2007 by and between the undersigned INTERACTUAL TECHNOLOGIES,
INC., a California corporation ("Grantor"),
and
UNION BANK OF CALIFORNIA, N.A. (the "Bank").
RECITALS
Bank
has
entered into a transaction, and proposes to enter into further transactions,
with SONIC SOLUTIONS, a California corporation ("Borrower"),
which
is the parent company of Grantor, pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement
dated as of December 13, 2004, as amended, modified, supplemented or restated
from time to time (the "Loan
Agreement").
Grantor expects to derive economic benefit from Bank's doing so and dealing
with
Borrower in accordance with the Loan Agreement, and has entered into an
Unconditional Guaranty dated as of December 13, 2004 with respect to the
existing and future obligations of Borrower to Bank (as amended, modified,
supplemented or restated from time to time, the "Guaranty").
Grantor wishes to secure performance and payment of all obligations to Bank
under the Guaranty and the prompt performance by Grantor of each of its
covenants and duties under this Agreement, the Guaranty and the other the Loan
Documents (the "Guarantor
Obligations")
with
substantially all of its assets. All terms used without definition in this
Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Loan Agreement;
provided that, as used herein the terms "Accounts", "Equipment" "Intellectual
Property", "Inventory", "Negotiable Collateral", and "Subsidiary" refer to
assets, property, rights and subsidiaries of Grantor rather than Borrower.
As
used herein "Loan
Documents"
includes all Loan Documents (as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement),
this Agreement, the Guaranty and any and all other agreements entered into
between Grantor and Bank in connection with any of the foregoing, all as
amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time. All terms used
without definition in this Agreement or in the Loan Agreement shall have the
meaning assigned to them in the California Uniform Commercial Code.
NOW,
THEREFORE, Grantor
and the Bank agree as follows:
1. Grant
of Security Interest.
In order
to secure prompt repayment of any and all Guarantor Obligations, Grantor grants
and pledges to Bank a continuing security interest in the Bank a security
interest in the property described in Exhibit
A
(the
"Collateral"). Grantor authorizes Bank to file with the California Secretary
of
State, or such other government office as Bank deems appropriate, one or more
financing statements that (a) specifically describe the Collateral, describe
the
Collateral as all assets of Grantor of the kind pledged hereunder, include
the
description of the Collateral set forth on Exhibit
A
hereto,
and (b) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency
of filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement,
or amendment, including whether Grantor is an organization, the type of
organization and any organizational identification number issued to Grantor,
if
applicable. Grantor farther authorizes Bank to take any other actions as Bank
may deem appropriate to perfect its security interest. Such security interest
constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in the presently existing
Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in
Collateral acquired after the date thereof, subject in each case to Permitted
Liens. Grantor shall from time to time, execute and deliver to Bank, at the
request of Bank, all of Grantor's Negotiable Collateral, all financing
statements and other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form
satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue the perfection of Bank's security
interests in the Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the
transactions contemplated under this Agreement, the Guaranty and the other
Loan
Documents.
2. Grantor's
Representations and Warranties.
Grantor
represents and warrants as follows:
(a)
Due
Organization and Qualification.
Grantor
and each Subsidiary is duly existing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and qualified and
licensed to do business in any state or other jurisdiction in which the failure

Adverse
Effect.
1
(b) Due
Authorization; No Conflict.
The
execution, delivery, and performance of the Guaranty, this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents are within Grantor's powers, have been duly authorized,
and
are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any provision contained
in
Grantor's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, nor will they constitute
an
event of default under any material agreement to which Grantor is a party or
by
which Grantor is bound. Grantor is not in default under any agreement to which
it is a party or by which it is bound except to the extent such default could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(c) No
Prior Encumbrances.
Grantor
has good and marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of Liens, except
for Permitted Liens.
(d) Bona
Fide Accounts.
The
Accounts are bona fide existing obligations.

All
Inventory is in all material respects of good quality, free from all material
defects, except for Inventory for which adequate reserves have been
made.

any
name other than that specified on the signature page hereof. The chief executive
office of Grantor is located at the address indicated in Section 10

Property.
Grantor
is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property. Each
of
the Patents is valid and enforceable, and no claim has been made that any
Intellectual Property violates or infringes upon the rights of any Person.
Grantor's rights as licensee of another Person's Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks
or other intellectual property do not give rise to more than 5% of Grantor's
gross revenue in any fiscal quarter.
(h)
Litigation.
Except
as disclosed in writing to Bank and except to the extent such actions
or proceedings could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, there are no actions or proceedings pending by or against Grantor or
any
Subsidiary before any court or administrative agency. Except as disclosed to
Bank in writing, Grantor does not have knowledge of any such pending or
threatened actions or proceedings.
(i) No
Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements.
All
consolidated financial
statements related to Grantor and any Subsidiary that are delivered by Grantor
to Bank fairly present in all material respects Grantor's consolidated financial
condition as of the date thereof and Grantor's consolidated results of
operations for the period then ended. There has not been a material adverse
change in the consolidated financial condition of Grantor since the date of
the
most recent of such financial statements submitted to Bank, other than as
described in writing to Bank. No circumstance has occurred that has a Material
Adverse Effect since the date of the most recent Compliance Certificate
delivered to Bank, other than as consented to in writing by Bank.

Compliance.
Grantor
and each Subsidiary has met the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with
respect to any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. No event has occurred
resulting from Grantor's failure to comply with ERISA that is reasonably likely
to result in Grantor's incurring any material liability. Grantor is not an
"investment company" or a company "controlled'' by an "investment company"
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Grantor is not engaged
principally, or as one of the important activities, in the business of extending
credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the
meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System). Grantor has complied with all material provisions of the Federal Fair
Labor Standards Act. Grantor has not violated any statutes, laws, ordinances
or
rules applicable to it extent to the extent such violation could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Condition.
None of
Grantor's or any Subsidiary's properties or assets
has ever been used by Grantor or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Grantor's
knowledge, by previous owners or operators, in the disposal of, or to produce,
store, handle, treat, release, or transport, any hazardous waste or hazardous
substance other than in accordance with applicable law. None of Grantor's
properties or assets has ever been designated or identified in any manner
pursuant to any environmental protection statute as a hazardous waste or
hazardous substance disposal site, or a candidate for closure pursuant to any
environmental protection statute; no lien arising under any environmental
protection statute has attached to any revenues or to any real or personal
property owned by Grantor or any Subsidiary. Neither Grantor nor any Subsidiary
has received a summons, citation, notice, or directive from the Environmental

the
releasing, or otherwise disposing of hazardous waste or hazardous substances
into the environment.

authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices
to, all governmental authorities that are necessary for the continued operation
of Grantor's business as currently conducted except to the extent the failure
to
do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(p)
Full
Disclosure.
No
representation, warranty or other statement made by Grantor
in any certificate or written statement furnished to Bank contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements contained in such certificates or statements not
misleading.
3. Affirmative
Covenants.

do
all of the following:
(a) Good
Standing.
Grantor
shall maintain its and each of its Subsidiaries' corporate
existence in its jurisdiction of organization and maintain qualification in each
jurisdiction in which such qualification is required for the operation of
Grantor's business, unless the failure to so maintain such qualification could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, provided that
this
Section shall not prohibit any transaction permitted by Section 7.3 of the
Loan
Agreement. Grantor shall maintain, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
to
maintain in force all licenses, approvals and agreements, the loss of which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Compliance.
Grantor
shall meet, and shall cause each Subsidiary to
meet,
the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to any employee benefit
plans subject to ERISA. Grantor shall comply, and shall cause each Subsidiary
to

contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.
(c) Taxes.
Grantor
shall make, and shall cause each Subsidiary to make, due and timely
payment or deposit of all material federal, state, and local taxes, assessments,

and Grantor will make, and will cause each Subsidiary to make, timely payment
or
deposit of all material tax payments and withholding taxes required of it by
applicable laws, including, but not limited to, those laws concerning F.I.C.A.,
F.U.T.A., state disability, and local, state, and federal income taxes, and
will, upon request, furnish Bank with proof satisfactory to Bank indicating
that
Grantor or a Subsidiary has made such payments or deposits; provided that
Grantor or a Subsidiary need not make any payment or deposit if the amount
or
validity of such payment or deposit is contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and is reserved against (to the extent required by GAAP) by
Grantor.

Grantor, at its expense, shall keep (or cause to be kept) the Collateral
insured
against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion and sprinklers, and all other
hazards and risks, and in such amounts, as ordinarily insured against by other
owners in similar businesses conducted in the locations where Grantor's business
is conducted on the date hereof. Grantor shall also maintain insurance relating
to Grantor's ownership and use of the Collateral in amounts and of a type that
are customary to businesses similar to Grantor's. All such policies of property
insurance shall contain a Bank's loss payable endorsement, in a form reasonably
satisfactory to Bank, showing Bank as an additional loss payee thereof and
all
liability insurance policies shall show the Bank as an additional insured,
and
shall specify that the insurer must give at least twenty (20) days notice to
Bank before canceling its policy for any reason. Upon Bank's request, Grantor
shall deliver to Bank certified copies of such policies of insurance and

such policy shall, at the option of Bank, be payable to Bank to be applied

and Remedies.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Bank may, at its election, upon notice of its election and demand, do any one
or
more of the following, all of which are authorized by Grantor:
(a) Declare
all Obligations and Guarantor Obligations, whether evidenced by the Loan
Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due
and
payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described
in
Section 5.4 all Obligations and Guarantor Obligations shall become immediately
due and payable without any action by Bank);
(b) Settle
or
adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon
terms
and in whatever order that Bank reasonably considers advisable;
(c) Set
off
and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of
Grantor
held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or
the
account of Grantor held by Bank;
(d) Make
such
payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable
to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Grantor agrees to assemble
the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to
Bank
as Bank may designate. Grantor authorizes Bank to enter the premises where
the
Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or
any
part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance,
charge, or lien which in Bank's determination appears to be prior or superior
to
its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
With respect to any of Grantor's owned premises, Grantor hereby grants Bank
a
license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same,
without charge, in order to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies provided
herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
(e) Ship,
reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise
for
sale,
and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby
granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 6.1, to use, without charge, Grantor's labels, patents, copyrights,
rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service
marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it
pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale,
and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank's exercise of its rights
under this Section 6.1, Grantor's rights under all licenses and all franchise
agreements shall inure to Bank's benefit except to the extent such license
or
other right would result in a breach of such agreement;
(f) Dispose
of the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one
or
more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at
such
places (including Grantor's premises) as Bank determines is commercially
reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or
order Bank deems appropriate;
(g) Bank
may
credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(h)
Any
deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above
will be paid immediately by Grantor.
6
6.2 Power
of Attorney.
Grantor
irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank's designated officers or employees)
as Grantor's true and lawful attorney to, upon and during the continuance of
an
Event of Default: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify
account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse
Grantor's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may
come
into Bank's possession; (c) sign Grantor's name on any invoice or xxxx of lading
relating to any Account, drafts against account
debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts,
and
notices to account debtors; (d)
dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and
decisions with respect to Grantor's policies of insurance; and (f) settle and
adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account
debtors,
for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; provided
Bank
may exercise such power
of
attorney to sign the name of Grantor on any of the documents described in
Section 4.2 regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The
appointment of Bank as Grantor's attorney in fact, and each and every one of
Bank's rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until
all of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations in respect of
indemnities) have been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to
provide advances hereunder is terminated.
6.3 Accounts
Collection.
Upon
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person
owing funds to Grantor of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify
the
amount of such Account. After the occurrence and during the continuance of
an
Event of Default, Grantor shall collect all amounts owing to Grantor for Bank,
receive in trust all payments as Bank's trustee, and upon request of Bank
immediately
deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the
account debtor, with proper endorsements
for deposit.
6.4 Bank
Expenses.
If
Grantor fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment
due to third persons or entities, as required under the terms of this Agreement,
then Bank may do any or all of
the
following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such
reserves under the Revolving Facility
as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such
failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed
in
Section 3(d) of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to
such
policies as Bank deems reasonably prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited
by
Bank shall constitute Bank
Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at
the
then applicable rate hereinabove provided,
and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not
constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a
waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.
6.5 Bank's
Liability for Collateral.
Bank
shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping
of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any
manner
or
fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any
act
or default of any carrier, warehouseman,
bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever, except to the extent
resulting from Bank's gross
negligence or willful misconduct. All risk of loss, damage, or destruction
of
the Collateral shall be borne by Grantor.
6.6 Remedies
Cumulative.
Bank's
rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Guaranty and
the
other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall
have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under
the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right
or
remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default on Grantor's part shall be
deemed
a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election,
or
acquiescence by it. No waiver
by
Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf
of
Bank and then shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was
given.
6.7 Demand;
Protest.
Grantor
waives demand, protest, notice of protest, 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 at any time held by Bank on which
Grantor may in any way be liable.
7. Amendment
of Loan Documents.
Grantor
authorizes Bank, without notice or demand and without affecting
its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, extend, or otherwise
change the terms of any Loan Document,
or any part thereof; (b) take and hold security for the payment of any Loan
Document, and exchange, enforce,
waive and release any such security; and (c) apply such security and direct
the
order or manner of sale thereof
as Bank in its sole discretion may determine.
7
8. Grantor
Waivers.
Grantor
waives any right to require Bank to (a) proceed against Borrower, any
other
guarantor or any other person; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security
held
from Borrower; (c) marshal any
assets of Borrower; or (d) pursue any other remedy in Bank's power whatsoever.
Bank may, at its election, exercise
or decline or fail to exercise any right or remedy it may have against Borrower
or any security held by Bank, including without limitation the right to
foreclose upon any such security by judicial or nonjudicial sale, without
affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Grantor hereunder. Grantor
waives any defense arising by reason
of
any disability or other defense of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from
any cause whatsoever of the liability
of Borrower. Grantor waives any setoff, defense or counterclaim that Borrower
may have against Bank. Grantor
waives any defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right
of reimbursement or subrogation
or any other rights against Borrower. Until all obligations under the Guaranty
have been satisfied, Grantor
shall have no right of subrogation or reimbursement, contribution or other
rights against Borrower, and Grantor waives any right to enforce any remedy
that
Bank now has or may hereafter have against Borrower. Grantor
waives all rights to participate in any security now or hereafter held by Bank.
Grantor waives all presentments,
demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of
protest, notices of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of this Agreement and
of
the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Grantor
assumes the responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the
financial condition of Borrower and of all other circumstances bearing upon
the
risk of nonpayment of any indebtedness or nonperformance of any obligation
of
Borrower, warrants to Bank that it will keep so informed, and agrees that absent
a request for particular information by Grantor, Bank shall have no duty to
advise Grantor of information known
to
Bank regarding such condition or any such circumstances. Until all Obligations
have been satisfied, Grantor
waives the benefits of California Civil Code sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2845,
2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and
3433.
The provisions of this Section 8, and of Sections 9 and 10 below shall be in
addition to, and shall not in any
way
limit, the provisions of the Guranty.
9. Borrower
Insolvency.
If
Borrower becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or files a petition for
reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief under any present
or
future provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or if such a petition
is
filed against Borrower, and in any such proceeding some or all of any
indebtedness or obligations under the Loan Documents are terminated or rejected
or any obligation of Borrower is modified or abrogated, or if Borrower's
obligations are otherwise avoided for insolvency, bankruptcy or any similar
reason, Grantor agrees that Grantor's liability hereunder shall not thereby
be
affected or modified and such liability
shall continue in full force and effect as if no such action or proceeding
had
occurred. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as
the
case may be, if any payment must be returned by Bank upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower, Grantor, any other person, or
otherwise, as though such payment
had not been made.
10. Notices.
Unless
otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices or demands by any party
relating
