5. Authorized Action by the Lenders. The Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints each Lender as its attorney-in-fact and agrees that each Lender may perform (but no Lender shall be obligated to and shall incur no liability to the Grantor or any third party for failure so to do) any act which the Grantor is obligated by this Agreement to perform, and to exercise such rights and powers as the Grantor might exercise with respect to the Collateral, including, without limitation, the right to (a) collect by legal proceedings or otherwise and endorse and/or receive all royalties, payments, proceeds and other sums and property now or hereafter payable on or on account of the Collateral; (b) insure, process, preserve and enforce the Collateral; (c) make any compromise or settlement, and take any action it deems advisable, with respect to the Collateral; (d) pay any indebtedness of the Grantor relating to the Collateral; and (e) execute UCC financing statements and other documents, instruments and agreements required hereunder.

The Grantor agrees to reimburse the Lenders upon demand for all costs and expenses, including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, the Lenders may incur while acting as the Grantor’s attorney-in-fact hereunder, all of which costs and expenses are included in the Secured Obligations. Each Lender agrees that, except upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney or any rights granted to such Lender pursuant to this Section 5. The Grantor hereby ratifies, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 5 is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Secured Obligations are completely paid and performed in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) (and the Loan Agreement has been terminated) or this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

6. Default and Remedies.

(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to the Lenders by this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the other Finance Documents, the UCC and other applicable laws, each Lender may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, exercise any one or more of the following rights and remedies to the extent not prohibited by applicable law: (a) collect, receive, appropriate or realize upon the Collateral or otherwise foreclose or enforce such Lender’s security interests in any or all Collateral in any manner not prohibited by applicable law or in this Agreement; (b) notify any or all licensees of Collateral to make payments thereon directly to such Lender or its agent, designee or representative; (c) sell, license or otherwise dispose of any or all Collateral at one or more public or private dispositions, whether or not such Collateral is present at the place of sale, for cash or credit or future delivery, on such commercially reasonable terms and in such commercially reasonable manner as one or more Lenders may determine; (d) if one or more Lenders elects to sell or otherwise dispose of any or all Collateral at one or more public or private dispositions, upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Grantor, direct the Grantor not to make any further use of the Patents, the Trademarks (or any xxxx similar thereto) or any other Collateral for any purpose; (e) upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Grantor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any of the Patents, Trademarks or other Collateral, throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as one or more of the Lenders in their sole discretion determine; (f) enforce (and upon notice to the Grantor have the exclusive right to enforce) against any licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of the Grantor in, to and under any one or more license agreements with respect to the Collateral (without assuming any obligations or liability thereunder), and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof; and (g) in addition to the foregoing, in order to implement the assignment, sale or other disposal of any of the Collateral, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 5 hereof, execute and deliver on behalf of the Grantor, upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Grantor, one or more instruments of assignment of the Patents, Trademarks or any other Collateral (or any application or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any applicable jurisdiction. In connection with any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption the Grantor hereby releases. The Lenders may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral and may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, which procedures shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. The Grantor further agrees, at any Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral (if tangible) and make it available to such Lender(s) at places mutually convenient to such Lender and Grantor. The Lenders shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Secured Obligations as set forth in the Loan Agreement or if not set forth therein, in such manner and in such order as the Lenders may determine in their sole discretion. The Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and the Grantor shall also be liable for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees or costs of any attorneys employed by the Lenders to collect such deficiency. Only after the Secured Obligations are completely paid and performed in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) (and the Loan Agreement has been terminated) and after the payment by the Lenders of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-608(a)(1)(C) of the UCC (or any other then applicable provision of the UCC), need the Lenders account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantor. To the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against each Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct such Lender.

(b) The Grantor also agrees to pay all fees, costs and expenses of the Lenders, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights and remedies hereunder.

(c) The Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral.

(d) To the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Grantor agrees that a breach of any covenants contained in this Section 6 will cause irreparable injury to the Lenders, that in such event the Lenders and would have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees that in such event each and every covenant contained in this Section 6 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantor, and the Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that the Secured Obligations are not then due and payable.

(e) Each Lender authorizes the Grantor to collect its accounts and accounts receivable related to the sale, license, settlement, judgment or other disposition of, or otherwise arising from, any of the Collateral (collectively, the “Accounts”), provided that such collection is performed in a commercially reasonable manner, and each Lender may, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default and with prior written notice to the Grantor, limit or terminate said authority at any time. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, at the request of any Lender, the Grantor shall deliver all original and other documents evidencing and relating to such Accounts, including, without limitation, all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts. Each Lender may at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, with prior written notice to the Grantor of its intention to do so, notify any account debtors of the Grantor or any parties to the intellectual property licenses of the Grantor with respect to any Collateral that the Accounts and the right, title and interest of the Grantor in and under such intellectual property licenses have been assigned to the Lenders and that payments shall be made directly to the Lenders or any one of them as they may determine in their sole discretion. Upon the request of any Lender at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Grantor shall so notify such account debtors and parties to such intellectual property licenses. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, each Lender may, in its name or in the name of others, communicate with such account debtors and parties to such intellectual property licenses to verify with such parties, to such Lender’s reasonable satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of any such Accounts or intellectual property licenses.

(f) For the purpose of enabling the Lenders to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 6 at such time as the Lenders shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, the Grantor hereby grants to the Lenders a nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantor during the existence of an Event of Default) to use, license or sublicense any of the Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by the Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, 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, except to the extent that such license may not be granted as a result of an exclusive license arrangement. The use of such license by the Lenders shall be exercised, at the option of the Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license or sublicense entered into by the Lenders with a Person other than a Lender Party in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

(g) In each Lender’s sole discretion, the rights and remedies of each Lender hereunder may be exercised by the Lenders individually or in concert or by any agent or designee acting on behalf of one or more Lenders (and such agent or designee may be another Lender). No Lender shall be liable for any act or omission of any other Lender.

7. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should the Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Grantor’s property and assets or any non-U.S. equivalent of the foregoing, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. This Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

8. Indemnification and Release.

(a) The Grantor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from the use of the Patents, Trademarks, and any other Collateral of the Grantor and its Affiliates, and the Grantor hereby indemnifies and holds each Lender, its Affiliates and its and their respective Affiliate’s respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, partners, equity holders, agents, designees and representatives (“Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any claim, suit, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising out of or in connection with any alleged infringement of any patent, trademark, service xxxx, or trade name rights of a third party or alleged defect in any product manufactured, promoted or sold by the Grantor (or any Affiliate of the Grantor) in connection with any Patent, Trademark, or any other Collateral or out of the manufacture, promotion, labeling, sale or advertisement of any product or service by the Grantor (or any Affiliate of the Grantor).

(c) The Grantor agrees to indemnify and hold the Indemnitees harmless from and against any claim, suit, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising out of or in connection with any claim, suit or proceeding instituted by the Grantor or in which the Grantor participates.

(d) To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Grantor hereby releases the Indemnitees from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any Lender under the powers of attorney granted in Section 5 hereof, other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitees or any breach of this Agreement or the other Finance Documents.

(e) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Grantor shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Finance Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 8 shall, however, be deemed to require the Grantor to indemnify or hold harmless any Indemnitee from or against any losses, costs, claims or damages arising from or relating to such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
