If no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such net proceeds may be applied, at Obligor’s option, either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Lender, or as a credit against such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Lender shall determine in Lender’s sole discretion. In the event that Obligor may and does elect to replace or restore as aforesaid, then such net proceeds shall be deposited in a segregated account of Obligor at Lender (or at a bank selected by Lender) and subject to the sole order (and control of) of Lender and shall be disbursed therefrom by Lender in such manner and at such times as Lender deems appropriate to complete such replacement or restoration; provided; however, that if an Event of Default shall occur at any time before or after replacement or restoration has commenced, then thereupon Lender shall have the option to apply all remaining net proceeds either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Lender, or as a credit against such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Lender shall determine in Lender’s sole discretion. If an Event of Default shall occur prior to such deposit of the net proceeds, then Lender may, in its sole discretion, apply such net proceeds either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Lender, or as a credit against such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Lender shall determine in Lender’s sole discretion. Obligor hereby indemnifies Lender against any loss or damage to Collateral not insured by Obligor and for any deficiency in any effective insurance coverage required to be maintained by Obligor pursuant to this Agreement, which indemnification obligation shall constitute part of the Obligations. Lender shall not be liable for any insufficiency in the insurance coverage of Obligor.

f. All books and records pertaining to the Collateral are located at the Business Premises and Obligor will not change the location of such books and records without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Obligor shall make notations, satisfactory to Lender, on its books and records disclosing the existence of Lender’s security interest in the Collateral.

g. Obligor shall do, make, execute and deliver all such additional and further acts, things, deeds, assurances, instruments and documents as Lender may request to vest in and assure to Lender its rights hereunder or in any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, placing legends on Collateral stating that Lender has a security interest therein. Obligor will not create any chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel paper acceptable to Lender indicating that it has a security interest in the chattel paper.

h. Upon an Event of Default, Obligor shall cooperate with Lender to obtain and keep in effect one or more control agreements (in form and substance satisfactory to Lender) in deposit account, electronic chattel paper, investment property and letter-of-credit rights Collateral.

i. Obligor authorizes Lender to file financing statements covering the Collateral (including without limitation financing statements which describe any of all of the Collateral and/or indicate that the financing statement covers “all assets” or “all personal property” (or the like) of Obligor) and containing such legends as Lender shall deem reasonably necessary or desirable to protect Lender’s interest in the Collateral. Obligor agrees to pay all taxes, fees and costs (including attorneys’ fees) paid or incurred by Lender in connection with the preparation, filing or recordation thereof.

j. Whenever required by Lender, Obligor shall promptly deliver to Lender, with all endorsements and/or assignments required by Lender, all instruments, chattel paper, guaranties and the like received by Obligor constituting, evidencing or relating to any of the Collateral or proceeds of any of the Collateral. Where Collateral is in the long-term possession of a third party (e.g., other than standard distribution channels), Obligor will join in with Lender in notifying the third party of Lender’s security interest and obtaining an acknowledgment from the third party that it is holding the Collateral for the benefit of Lender.

k. Obligor shall not file any amendments, correction statements or termination statements concerning the Collateral without the prior written consent of Lender; provided, that upon Obligor’s repayment in full of all Obligations hereunder and the termination of the LOC Loan and the Term Loan, any and all Liens in favor of Lender with respect to the Collateral shall be deemed automatically terminated, and Lender shall authorize Obligor to file any termination statements with respect to any outstanding Liens concerning such Collateral.

l. If any Collateral arises out of a contract with the United States Government or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof, Obligor shall immediately notify Lender thereof and shall execute and deliver to Lender specific assignments, of those contracts and the related United States Government accounts of Obligor and shall do such other things as may be satisfactory to Lender in order that all sums due and to become due to Obligor under such contract shall be duly assigned to Lender in accordance with the Federal Assignment of Claims Act (31 United States Code §3727; 00 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code §15) as in effect on the date hereof and as hereafter amended and/or any other applicable laws and regulations relating to the assignment of governmental obligations. Payments on United States Government contracts or United States Government accounts which have been specifically assigned to Lender by means of a direct assignment, as provided herein, shall be made directly to Lender, for payment to the Loans. The separate assignment of specific United States Government contracts to Lender, as contemplated herein, shall not be deemed to limit Lender’s security interest to the payments under those particular United States Government contracts and the related United States Government accounts, but rather Lender’s security interest shall extend to any and all United States Government contracts and the related United States Government accounts and proceeds thereof, now or hereafter owned or acquired by Obligor. During the term of this Agreement, Obligor agrees and covenants not to make any assignment of any of the United States Government contracts to any party other than Lender without Lender’s prior written consent.

m. In the event that Collateral is in the possession of a bailee or other third party, Obligor shall (and in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Lender), either: (i) to the extent applicable, cause a document of title, in form and content satisfactory to Lender, to be issued in Lender’s name or (ii) obtain the written acknowledgment of the bailee or third party that it is holding or controlling such Collateral for the benefit of Lender.

n. With respect to any Collateral which is subject to a certificate of title, Obligor shall: (i) cause a certificate of title to be issued perfecting the security interest of Lender, unless such Collateral is inventory held for sale in the ordinary course of Obligor’s business by Obligor and until such Collateral ceases to be such inventory; and (ii) not cause or permit a certificate of title to be issued in another state which does not list Lender’s security interest.

o. If Obligor shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim, as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code, then Obligor shall immediately notify Lender, in a writing signed by Obligor, of the brief details of the commercial tort claim and shall grant to Lender a security interest therein and in all proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All terms and provisions of such written notification and grant of such security interests shall be in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

p. If any part of the Collateral is or becomes a fixture, Obligor shall, upon demand, furnish Lender with a disclaimer, release or subordination agreement, in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Lender, signed by all persons having an interest in the real property or any interest in such Collateral which may be senior to Lender’s security interest.

q. The Collateral consisting of the letter-of-credit rights include without limitation the right to draw under letters-of-credits, to effect which rights a power of attorney is hereby granted by Obligor to Lender.

4.3. Collateral Collections. Upon an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right at any and all times to enforce Obligor’s rights against account debtors and other parties obligated on Collateral, including, but not limited to, the right to: (a) notify and/or require Obligor to notify any or all account debtors and other parties obligated on Collateral to make payments directly to Lender or in care of a post office lock box under the sole control of Lender established at Obligor’s expense subject to Lender’s customary arrangements and charges therefor, and to take any or all action with respect to Collateral as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, the right to demand, collect, xxx for and receive any money or property at any time due, payable or receivable on account thereof, compromise and settle with any person liable thereon, and extend the time of payment or otherwise change the terms thereof, without incurring liability or responsibility to Obligor; (b) require Obligor to segregate and hold in trust for Lender and, on the day of Obligor’s receipt thereof, transmit to Lender in the exact form received by Obligor (except for such assignments and endorsements as may be required by Lender), all cash, checks, drafts, money orders and other items of payment constituting Collateral or proceeds of Collateral; and/or (c) establish and maintain at Lender a “Repayment Account,” which shall be under the exclusive control of and subject to the sole order of Lender and which shall be subject to the imposition of such customary charges as are imposed by Lender from time to time upon such accounts, for the deposit of cash, checks, drafts, money orders and other items of payments constituting Collateral or proceeds of Collateral from which Lender may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, withdraw all or any part. Lender’s collection and enforcement of Collateral against account debtors and other persons obligated thereon shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable if Lender exercises the care and follows the procedures that Lender generally applies to the collection of obligations owed to Lender. All cash and non-cash proceeds of the Collateral may be applied by Lender upon Lender’s actual receipt of cash proceeds against such of the Obligations, matured or unmatured, as Lender shall determine in Lender’s sole discretion.

4.4. Care of Collateral. Obligor shall have all risk of loss of the Collateral. Lender shall have no liability or duty, either before, upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, on account of loss of or damage to, to collect or enforce any of its rights against, the Collateral, to collect any income accruing on the Collateral, or to preserve rights against account debtors or other parties with prior interests in the Collateral. If Lender actually receives any notices requiring action with respect to Collateral in Lender’s possession, Lender shall forward such notices to Obligor. Obligor is responsible for responding to notices concerning the Collateral, voting the Collateral, and exercising rights and options, calls and conversions of the Collateral. Lender’s sole responsibility is to take such action (with respect to Collateral in its possession) as is reasonably requested by Obligor in writing, however, Lender is not responsible to take any action that, in Lender’s sole judgment, would affect the value of the Collateral as security for the Obligations adversely (nothing contained in this Section 4.4 shall be interpreted or construed to limit any rights or remedies of Lender if an Event of Default has occurred). While Lender is not required to take certain actions, if action is needed, in Lender’s sole discretion, to preserve and maintain the Collateral, Obligor authorizes Lender to take such actions, but Lender is not obligated to do so.

4.5. Authorization and Power-of-Attorney. Obligor authorizes Lender, following an Event of Default, to request other secured parties of Obligor to provide accountings, confirmations of Collateral and confirmations of statements of account concerning Obligor. Obligor hereby designates and appoints Lender and its designees as attorney-in-fact of Obligor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority, following an Event of Default, to endorse Obligor’s name on requests to other secured parties of Obligor for accountings, confirmations of collateral and confirmations of statements of account.

4.6. Obligor’s Security for Loans. The Loans are to be secured by a valid lien and first security interest on all of Obligor’s tangible and intangible personal property, intellectual property and business assets wherever located, now owned or hereafter acquired, including but not limited to all machinery, equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, fixtures and general intangibles, regardless of how titled or held. The Collateral is subject to no prior security interest except in favor of Lender. Lender is hereby authorized to file all financing statements as it deems necessary or appropriate.

a. Declare the Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other Obligations to be immediately due and payable and the same shall thereupon become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand for payment, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.

b. Institute any proceeding or proceedings to enforce the Obligations and/or any Liens of Lender.

c. Take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose, so far as Obligor may give authority therefor, enter upon (and remain without liability to pay any rent or occupancy charge) any premises on which the Collateral or any part thereof may be situated and remove the same therefrom without any liability for suit, action or other proceeding, Obligor HEREBY WAIVING, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO PRIOR NOTICE AND TO JUDICIAL HEARING OR PROCESS WITH RESPECT TO REPOSSESSION OF COLLATERAL, and/or require Obligor, at Obligor’s expense, to assemble and deliver the Collateral to such place or places as Lender may designate. Obligor shall make available to Lender all premises, locations and facilities necessary for Lender’s taking possession (whether under this paragraph or otherwise) of the Collateral or for removing or putting the Collateral in saleable form.

d. Operate, manage and control the Collateral (including use of the Collateral and any other property or assets of Obligor in order to continue or complete performance of Obligor’s obligations under any contracts of Obligor), or permit the Collateral or any portion thereof to remain idle or store the same, and collect all rents and revenues therefrom; and sell or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral (whether such disposition is at Obligor’s premises or not at such premises) upon such terms and under such conditions as Lender, in its sole discretion, may determine, and purchase or acquire any of the Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, all to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

e. Enforce Obligor’s rights against any account debtors and other obligors.

Any Principal Reduction shall first be applied to the then-outstanding balance of the Term Loan. Upon the payment of a Principal Reduction, Lender shall determine whether Borrower has satisfied the terms of Section 7.16 based on the remaining principal balance amortization being recast of the remaining term of the Term Loan.

All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved by Obligor and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of commission or omission nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unperformed or there exists any commitment by Lender which could give rise to any Obligations.

10.3. Notice of Disposition of Collateral.

Obligor acknowledges that the purpose of this paragraph is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Lender would fulfill Lender’s duties under the Uniform Commercial Code in Lender’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Lender shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this paragraph. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to grant any rights to Obligor or to impose any duties on Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this paragraph.

10.7. Grant of License. Obligor hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to Obligor) to use, license or sublicense any patents, trademarks, copyrights, or other licenses with respect to any of the foregoing, now owned or licensed or hereafter acquired or licensed by Obligor, wherever the same may be located throughout the world, for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as Lender shall reasonably determine, whether general, special or otherwise, based upon a commercially reasonable standard for such license(s), and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the use of such license or sublicense by Lender shall only be exercised, at the option of Lender, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, in a commercially reasonable manner as follows: (a) Lender shall implore substantially similar standards of screening, quality control and protection over Obligor’s patents, trademarks, and copyrights with respect to any proposed license as established by Obligor with respect to Obligor’s brand and intellectual property and as used by Obligor in the ordinary course of business; (b) any actions taken by Lender shall be reasonably proportionate to the nature of the default, the sum due on the obligations, and the value of the proposed license(s); and (c) Lender shall make reasonable efforts to consult with Obligor to achieve the foregoing, and upon repayment in full of all owing and outstanding Obligations, the license granted to Lender hereunder shall terminate in full. Provided that Lender is in compliance with the foregoing, then any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by Lender in accordance herewith shall be binding upon Obligor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand all such advances made by Lender with interest thereon at the highest rate and calculated in the manner provided in the Notes. Any funds so advanced shall be considered to be Line of Credit Advances of principal under the applicable LOC Note.

11.2. Expenses. Following the Closing, Obligor agrees to pay to Lender on demand the amount of all expenses paid or incurred by Lender (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) in connection with all expenses paid or incurred by Lender in connection with the filing or recordation of all financing statements and instruments as may be required by Lender at the time of, or subsequent to, the execution of this Agreement, including, without limitation, all documentary stamps, recordation and transfer taxes and other costs and taxes incident to recordation of any document or instrument in connection herewith. Obligor agrees to save harmless and indemnify Lender from and against any liability resulting from the failure to pay any required documentary stamps, recordation and transfer taxes, recording costs or any other expenses incurred by Lender in connection with this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 11.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Lender’s security interest hereunder and the payment of all other Obligations.

11.3. Applications of Payments and Collateral. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all Collateral and proceeds of Collateral coming into Lender’s possession and all payments made by any Obligor may be applied by Lender to any of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Lender shall determine in its sole but reasonable discretion. Lender may defer the application of non-cash proceeds of Collateral, including, but not limited to, non-cash proceeds collected under Section 4.3 hereof, to the Obligations until cash proceeds are actually received by Lender.

11.4. Waivers by Obligor. Obligor hereby waives, to the extent the same may be waived under applicable law, and in accordance with the provisions hereof: (a) notice of acceptance of this Agreement; (b) all claims, causes of action and rights of Obligor against Lender on account of actions taken or not taken by Lender in the exercise of Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable law; (c) all claims of Obligor for failure of Lender to comply with any requirement of applicable law relating to enforcement of Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable law; (d) all rights of redemption of Obligor with respect to the Collateral; (e) in the event Lender seeks to repossess any or all of the Collateral by judicial proceedings, any bond(s) or demand(s) for possession which otherwise may be necessary or required; (f) presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of non-payment and all exemptions and all rights to the marshalling of assets; (g) any and all other notices or demands which by applicable law must be given to or made upon Obligor by Lender; (h) settlement, compromise or release of the obligations of any person primarily or secondarily liable upon any of the Obligations; (i) the right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding of any kind or nature in connection with any of the Obligations, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; and (j) substitution, impairment, exchange or release of any Collateral for any of the Obligations. Obligor agrees that Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and/or remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents and under applicable law without resorting to and without regard to any Collateral or sources of liability with respect to any of the Obligations. Lender shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. Upon termination of this Agreement and Lender’s security interest hereunder and payment of all Obligations, within sixty (60) days following Obligor’s written request to Lender, Lender shall release control of any security interest in the Collateral perfected by control and Lender shall send Obligor a statement terminating any financing statement filed against the Collateral.

11.5. Waivers by Lender. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder, under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

11.6. Lender’s Setoff. Lender shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, following an Event of Default, to set off, without the need for notice or demand, against any Obligations (whether or not material) due Lender, any debt owing to Obligor by Lender, including, without limitation, any funds in any checking or other account now or hereafter maintained by Obligor at Lender. Obligor hereby confirms Lender’s right to banker’s lien and setoff, and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition of Lender’s right of banker’s lien and setoff.

11.7. 903a Waiver. OBLIGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTION OF WHICH THIS AGREEMENT IS A PART IS A “COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION” WITHIN THE MEANING OF CHAPTER 903a OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED, AND THAT ANY MONIES, PROPERTY OR SERVICES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF SUCH TRANSACTION ARE NOT FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES.

11.8. Modifications. No modifications or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, and no consent by Lender to any departure by Obligor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.
