Acts.
3.3.1. Payment of Taxes, etc. Grantor covenants and agrees that it will
pay, when due, all taxes, assessments, levies and charges upon and against the
Collateral, of every nature and character, which are now due and which may
hereafter become due.
3.3.2. Insurance. Subject to the rights of any holder of Permitted Liens,
Grantor covenants and agrees that it will keep the Collateral, or so much
thereof as Beneficiary may reasonably direct from time to time, insured against
5
loss, damage and such other hazards, events and circumstances as Beneficiary may
reasonably require in amounts reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, plus an
amount sufficient to prevent any co-insurance liability of the owner of the
Collateral and Beneficiary, for the benefit of Beneficiary, loss, if any, to be
made payable in the policy or policies of insurance to Beneficiary as its
interest may appear, the loss payable clauses to be in such form as Beneficiary
may require. Subject to the rights of any holder of Permitted Liens, all
insurance shall be in companies to which Beneficiary does not have a reasonable
objection, the policies and renewals thereof shall, when issued, be immediately
delivered to Beneficiary to be held by it, and all insurance policies shall
provide for at least 30 calendar days prior written notice of cancellation to
Beneficiary. Grantor will pay all premiums for such insurance when due. In the
event of a material loss, Grantor will give prompt notice to Beneficiary and
Beneficiary may make proof of loss if not made promptly by Grantor, subject to
the rights of the Senior Lender. The proceeds of any insurance with respect to
the Collateral shall be Collateral and, if no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, and subject to the rights of any holder of Permitted Liens, the
proceeds of any insurance, and any part thereof, with respect to the Collateral
may be applied by Grantor, at its option, either to the reduction of the
Obligations hereby secured or to the repair or replacement of the lost or
damaged Collateral - unless a Requirement of Law mandates otherwise.
3.3.3. Further Acts by Grantor. Without limiting any of Grantor's covenants
in this Security Agreement, but in addition thereto, Grantor shall, at the cost
and expense of Grantor, do and undertake such further acts and execute,
acknowledge and deliver such further security agreements, pledges, mortgages,
assignments, notices of assignments, endorsements, statements, agreements,
assurances and undertakings as Beneficiary shall reasonably require, from time
to time, (1) for the better assuring and confirming unto Beneficiary its
security interest in the Collateral and its rights hereby granted, and intended
both now and hereafter so to be, and (2) carrying out the intention and
facilitating the performance of the terms of this Security Agreement and for
filing, registering and recording this Security Agreement or notice of same
(e.g., Financing Statements, Control Agreements, securities filings), or for
complying with all applicable Requirements of Law.
3.3.4. Authorized Actions by Beneficiary. Grantor hereby irrevocably
appoints Beneficiary as its attorney-in-fact (coupled with an interest) to (i)
prior to or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, execute, deliver, and
file Financing Statements covering the Collateral; and (ii) upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default and during the continuance of such Event of Default, in
either or both its own name or as "attorney-in-fact for Grantor" and without
prior notice to and prior demand on Grantor, perform (but Beneficiary shall not
be obligated to and shall incur no liability to Grantor and any third party for
failure to do so) any act which Grantor is obligated by this Security Agreement
to perform and any other acts which the Beneficiary deems appropriate to perfect
and continue the security interests in the Collateral, unless such action is
prohibited by the Subordination Agreement or by the UCC.
Article IV. Default and Remedies.
Section 4.1. Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:
(a) the failure of Grantor to make any payment due under any or all of
the Obligations within three (3) business days after such payment first
becomes due;
(b) the occurrence of an event of default (other than a payment
default) under any or all of the Obligations (as such event of default is
defined in the document evidencing the applicable Obligation);
(c) Grantor's breach of any of the material terms, conditions or
covenants contained in this Security Agreement or the occurrence of some
other material default under this Security Agreement; provided that
Beneficiary gives notice to Grantor of such failure, identifying such
notice as a default notice given pursuant to this Security Agreement, and
such failure remains uncured for 30 days after Grantor's receipt of such
notice (or, in the case of a failure that is not capable of being cured in
such 30-day period, for such longer period as may be required for Grantor
to cure such failure acting with due diligence, but in no event exceeding
6
120 days), and provided further, however, that the foregoing notice and
cure periods shall not apply if the breach or default is a result of any
intentional breach by Grantor;
(d) the Collateral, or any material part thereof or interest therein,
is attached, seized, subjected to a writ or distress warrant, or is levied
upon, or comes into the possession of any trustee, receiver or person
acting in a similar capacity and such attachment, seizure, writ or distress
warrant or levy has not been removed, discharged or rescinded within 30
calendar days, or if Grantor is enjoined, restrained or in any way
prevented by court order from continuing to conduct all or any material
part of its business affairs, or if a judgment or other claim becomes a
lien or encumbrance upon all or any material part of the Collateral or any
interest therein, or if a notice of lien, levy or assessment is filed of
record with respect to the Collateral, or any material part thereof or
interest therein, by any person, and the same is not paid within 30
calendar days after Grantor receives notice thereof, provided that none of
the foregoing shall constitute an Event of Default where such action or
event is stayed or an adequate bond has been posted pending a good faith
contest by Grantor;
(e) the insolvency of Grantor or any other person obligated on any of
the Obligations, or the appointment of a receiver for, or the filing of a
petition of bankruptcy by or against Grantor or any other person obligated
on any of the Obligations;
(f) the execution or foreclosure on, or the giving of any notice
relative to the planned execution or foreclosure on any security interest
in or lien upon all or any of the Collateral, or any interest therein, to
which the security interest and lien of this Security Agreement is
subordinate; or
(g) default by Grantor, or any other person obligated thereon (other
than Beneficiary), in keeping, performing or observing any term, covenant,
agreement or condition of any Loan Document executed or delivered by or on
behalf of Grantor, or such other person, to or in favor of Beneficiary in
connection with any of the Obligations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of Grantor to make any payment under
any or all of the Obligations shall not constitute an Event of Default to the
extent that Beneficiary is prohibited from accepting such payment (the
"Restricted Payment Amount") pursuant to the terms of the Subordination
Agreement dated as of the date hereof among Grantor, Beneficiary, and the Senior
Lender.
Section 4.2. Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default under SECTION 4.1. or any other event defined in this
Security Agreement as an "Event of Default", Beneficiary shall have the right to
exercise the rights and remedies set forth in Sections 4.2.1. through 4.2.3., in
addition to its other rights and remedies set forth in this Security Agreement
and the other Loan Documents.
4.2.1. Accelerate Obligations. Beneficiary shall have the right, at its
option, to declare all amounts payable under the Obligations to be immediately
due and payable, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable,
regardless of the maturity date thereof; and, if there is more than one
Obligation secured by this Security Agreement, Beneficiary may, at its option,
accelerate and declare immediately due and payable all of the Obligations - as
provided aforesaid, or Beneficiary may from time to time and at any number of
times accelerate and declare immediately due and payable any one or more of the
Obligations as Beneficiary in its discretion elects to accelerate. Also,
Beneficiary shall have the right, at its option, to declare due and payable any
of and all of the other indebtedness and obligations owing under this Security
Agreement that are not already due hereunder.
4.2.2. UCC Remedies. Beneficiary shall have all of the rights and remedies
provided in the UCC and all of the rights and remedies otherwise provided at law
and in equity, and may, without limiting and waiving in any way the foregoing,
exercise any one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) foreclose and
otherwise enforce Beneficiary's security interests in any and all of the
Collateral in any manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law or this
Security Agreement or under the Obligations; (b) sell and otherwise dispose of
any and all Collateral at one or more public sales and at one or more private
sales, whether or not such Collateral is present at the place of sale, for cash
or credit, on such terms and in such manner as Beneficiary may determine; (c)
7
require Grantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Beneficiary
at a place to be designated by Beneficiary; (d) enter onto any land and other
property where any Collateral is located and take possession of such Collateral
with or without judicial process; and (e) prior to the disposition of the
Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition any Collateral consisting of
Goods, or otherwise prepare or preserve Collateral for disposition in any manner
and to the extent Beneficiary deems appropriate.
In furtherance of Beneficiary's rights and remedies hereunder, Grantor hereby
grants to Beneficiary an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without
royalty or other payment by Beneficiary) to use, license and sublicense any
patent, trademark, trade name, copyright, software and other intellectual
property in which Grantor now has any right, title and interest and any property
in which it may in the future have any right, title and interest, together with
the right of access to all tangible and electronic media in which any of the
foregoing may be recorded or stored. Grantor hereby agrees: (a) that ten (10)
calendar days notice of any intended sale and disposition of any Collateral is
commercially reasonable; (b) that a shorter period of notice will be
commercially reasonable if Beneficiary, in its opinion, deems it necessary to
move more expeditiously with disposition of the Collateral and any part thereof;
and (c) that the foregoing shall not require a notice if no notice is required
under the UCC.
4.2.3. Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds of any sale of, and other realization
upon, all and any part of the Collateral pursuant to SECTION 4.2.2. shall be
applied by Beneficiary in the following order of priorities, unless Beneficiary
determines in its sole discretion to apply payments in a different order or
applicable Requirements of Law require a different application of payments:
first, to payment of the costs and expenses of such sale and other realization,
and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred and made by Beneficiary in
connection therewith, and any other unreimbursed costs and expenses for which
Beneficiary is to be reimbursed pursuant to this Security Agreement or under the
Obligations; second, to the payment of unpaid principal of the Obligations;
third, to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest on the Obligations; fourth,
to the payment of all other amounts owing and outstanding by Grantor, and any
other person obligated on any of the Obligations, under the Obligations or this
Security Agreement to Beneficiary as provided herein and therein, until all the
foregoing shall have been paid in full; and finally, to payment to Grantor and
its successors and assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct,
of any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.
4.2.4. Discontinuance of Proceedings; Position of Parties Restored. If
Beneficiary shall have proceeded to enforce any right and remedy under this
Security Agreement by foreclosure, entry and otherwise and such proceedings
shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or such proceedings
shall have resulted in a final determination adverse to Beneficiary, then and in
every such case Grantor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers and remedies of
Beneficiary shall continue as if no such proceedings had occurred or had been
taken.

and approvals by, and notices to and filings with, governmental authorities and
regulatory bodies have been obtained and made and that all requisite taxes,
levies and charges have been paid.
Section 5.5. Marshalling of Assets. Grantor hereby waives, to the extent
permitted by law, the benefit of all homestead, appraisal, valuation, stay,
extension, reinstatement and redemption laws which are now in force and which
may arise in the future and be in force, and all rights of marshalling in the
event of any sale hereunder of the Collateral and any part or any interest
therein. Further, Grantor hereby expressly waives on behalf of Grantor, and on
behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in and title to the
Collateral subsequent to the effective date of this Security Agreement and on
behalf of all other persons to the extent permitted by law, any and all rights
of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of this
Security Agreement.
Section 5.6. Waiver of Statutory Rights. Grantor waives any right to require
Beneficiary to bring any action against any other person and to require that
resort be had to any security and to any balances of any deposit or other
accounts on the books of Beneficiary in favor of any other person; and, without

Grantor otherwise might have or may have in the future under the statutory
provisions identified in the INFORMATION SCHEDULE (by referencing this Section),
and any other laws that require or may require Beneficiary to recover against
some other person, or to realize upon any security which Beneficiary holds for
the Obligations.
Section 5.7. Jury; Venue; Jurisdiction. This Security Agreement shall be deemed
to have been executed and delivered in the jurisdiction listed on the
INFORMATION SCHEDULE as the jurisdiction whose laws govern this Security
Agreement, regardless of where the signatories may be located at the time of
execution, and this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of such
jurisdiction, excluding, however, the conflict of law and choice of law
provisions thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any of the
Collateral is located in another jurisdiction or other jurisdictions, the laws
of the jurisdictions in which the Collateral is located shall govern with
respect to Beneficiary's and Grantor's rights in and to Collateral located in
such other jurisdictions and Beneficiary's remedies relative thereto. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereby waives and agrees not to
assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise in any such action, any
claim (i) that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts,
(ii) that the action is brought in an inconvenient forum, (iii) that it is
immune from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, (iv) that
the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or (v) that this
Security Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by
such courts.
Section 5.8. Cumulative Rights, etc. The rights, powers and remedies of
Beneficiary under this Security Agreement shall be in addition to all rights,
powers and remedies given to Beneficiary by virtue of any applicable laws and
regulations, the other Loan Documents and any other agreement, all of which
9
rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised by
Beneficiary from time to time and at any number of times successively,
concurrently and alternatively without impairing Beneficiary's rights under this
Security Agreement.
Section 5.9. No Waiver; No Course of Dealing; No Invalidity. No delay and
forbearance by Beneficiary in exercising any and all of its rights and remedies
hereunder and rights and remedies otherwise afforded by law and in equity shall
operate as a waiver thereof or preclude the exercise thereof during the
continuance of any Event of Default as set forth herein or in the event of any
subsequent Event of Default hereunder. Also, no act or inaction of Beneficiary
under this Security Agreement shall be deemed to constitute or establish a
"course of performance or dealing" that would require Beneficiary to so act or
refrain from acting in any particular manner at a later time under similar and
dissimilar circumstances. Wherever possible each provision of this Security
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be
prohibited or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of
such provision or the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement.
Section 5.10. No Oral Change. This Security Agreement may not be modified,
amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any
act or failure to act on the part of Grantor or Beneficiary, but only by an
agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any
modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is
sought.
Section 5.11. Payment of Expenses. Without limiting any other provision of this
Security Agreement relating to Grantor's payment of costs and expenses incurred
by and on behalf of Beneficiary, but in addition thereto, Grantor shall pay to
Beneficiary on demand any and all costs and expenses incurred or paid by
Beneficiary and incurred or paid on behalf of Beneficiary in doing any one or
more of protecting its interest in the Collateral, collecting any amount payable
hereunder and secured hereby and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect
to the Collateral (including commencing any foreclosure action and prosecuting
or defending any legal proceeding and equitable proceeding), together with
interest thereon at the Contract Rate from the date paid or incurred by
Beneficiary and paid or incurred on behalf of Beneficiary until such costs and
expenses are paid by Grantor. All sums so paid and expended by Beneficiary, and
the interest thereon, shall be included in the Obligations and be secured by the
security interest and lien of this Security Agreement.
Section 5.12. Relationship of Parties; Successors and Assigns. The Beneficiary
has no fiduciary, trust, guardian, representative, partnership, joint venturer
and other similar relationship to and with Grantor pursuant to this Security
Agreement, and no such relationship shall be drawn and implied from this
Security Agreement or any of Beneficiary's actions or inactions hereunder and
with respect hereto, and Beneficiary has no obligation to Grantor and any other
person relative to administration of any of the Obligations and the Collateral,
and any part or parts thereof, pursuant to this Security Agreement; provided,
however, that nothing contained in this Section 5.12 shall be deemed to limit
any provisions or duties of the Beneficiary set forth in the Stock Purchase
Agreement or any employment agreement between the Grantor and any Beneficiary.
The covenants, terms and conditions herein contained shall bind, and the
benefits and powers shall inure to, the respective heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, as well as any
persons who become bound hereto as a debtor.
Section 5.13. Notices. All notices, certificates, requests for information and
other communications hereunder shall be deemed given when given in the manner
provided in the Note.

obligations and other sums due and owing under this Security Agreement by
Grantor have been paid and satisfied in full, Beneficiary will, upon written
request of Grantor and at Grantor's costs and expense, execute and deliver to
Grantor a reconveyance or satisfaction of this Security Agreement.

appointed Xxxxx X. Xxxxx and his successors (the "Representative") as his
representative to act in the name of, for and on behalf of each such party with
10
respect to any and all matters relating to this Security Agreement. Each and
every act of Representative shall be in the name of, for and on behalf of such
parties and shall bind each of the Beneficiaries. All notices to and consents of
the Beneficiaries permitted or required hereunder shall be delivered to or
obtained from the Representative and such notices and consents shall be deemed
