7
updates to include, without limitation, information required by applicable law and regulation and by the internal policies of Lenders.
8. ACCESS AND EXAMINATION. Agent, accompanied by any Lender which so elects, may at all reasonable times during regular business hours (and at any time when an Event of Default exists and is continuing) have access to, examine, audit, make extracts from or copies of and inspect any or all of each Grantor’s records, files, and books of account and the Collateral, and discuss each Grantor’s affairs with each Grantor’s officers and management.

Agent may, without expense to Agent, use such of Grantors’ respective personnel, supplies and Real Estate as may be reasonably necessary for maintaining or enforcing Agent’s Liens. Agent shall have the right, at any time, in Agent’s name or in the name of a nominee of Agent, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to the Accounts, Inventory, or other Collateral, by mail, telephone, or otherwise.
9. ACCOUNTS.
(a) Each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders, with respect to such Grantor’s Eligible Accounts, that: (i) each existing Eligible Account represents, and each future Eligible Account will represent, a bona fide sale or lease and delivery of goods by such Grantor, or rendition of services by such Grantor, in the ordinary course of such Grantor’s business; (ii) each existing Eligible Account is, and each future Eligible Account will be, for a liquidated amount payable by the Account Debtor thereon on the terms set forth in the invoice therefor or in the schedule thereof delivered to Agent, without any offset, deduction, defense, or counterclaim except those known to such Grantor and disclosed to Agent and Lenders pursuant to this Security Agreement; (iii) no payment will be received with respect to any Eligible Account, and no credit, discount, or extension, or agreement therefor will be granted on any Eligible Account, except as reported to Agent and Lenders in Borrowing Base Certificates delivered in accordance with the Credit Agreement; (iv) each copy of an invoice delivered to Agent by such Grantor will be a genuine copy of the original invoice sent to the Account Debtor named therein; and (v) all goods described in any invoice representing a sale of goods will have been delivered to the Account Debtor and all services of such Grantor described in each invoice will have been performed.
(b) No Grantor shall re-date any invoice or sale or make sales on extended dating beyond that customary in such Grantor’s business or extend or modify any Account. If any Grantor becomes aware of any matter adversely affecting the collectibility of any Account or the Account Debtor therefor involving an amount greater than $750,000, including information regarding the Account Debtor’s creditworthiness, such Grantor will promptly so advise Agent and, to the extent such matter results in such Account no longer being eligible in accordance with the definition of “Eligible Accounts”, exclude such Account from Eligible Accounts.
(c) No Grantor shall accept any note or other instrument (except a check or other instrument for the immediate payment of money) with respect to any Account without
8
Agent’s written consent. If Agent consents to the acceptance of any such instrument, it shall be considered as evidence of the Account and not payment thereof and such Grantor will promptly deliver such instrument to Agent, endorsed by such Grantor to Agent in a manner satisfactory in form and substance to Agent. Regardless of the form of presentment, demand, notice of protest with respect thereto, Grantors shall remain liable thereon until such instrument is paid in full.
(d) Grantors shall notify Agent promptly of all disputes and claims in excess of $750,000 with any Account Debtor, and agree to settle, contest, or adjust such dispute or claim at no expense to Agent or any Lender. No discount, credit or allowance shall be granted to any such Account Debtor without Agent’s prior written consent, except for discounts, credits and allowances made or given in the ordinary course of Grantors’ business when no Event of Default exists hereunder. Grantors shall send Agent a copy of each credit memorandum in excess of $500,000 promptly after issuance, and Grantors shall promptly report that credit on Borrowing Base Certificates submitted by them. Agent may at all times when an Event of Default exists, settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, shall consider advisable and, in all cases, Agent will credit the Loan Account with the net amounts received by Agent in payment of any Accounts.
(e) If an Account Debtor returns any Inventory to a Grantor when no Event of Default exists, then such Grantor shall promptly determine the reason for such return and shall, to the extent appropriate, issue a credit memorandum to the Account Debtor in the appropriate amount. Grantors shall immediately report to Agent any return involving an amount in excess of $750,000. Each such report shall indicate the reasons for the returns and the locations and condition of the returned Inventory. In the event any Account Debtor returns Inventory to a Grantor when an Event of Default exists, such Grantor, upon the request of Agent, shall: (i) hold the returned Inventory in trust for Agent; (ii) segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other property; (iii) dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Agent’s written instructions; and (iv) not issue any credits or allowances with respect thereto without Agent’s prior written consent.

Whenever any Inventory is returned, the related Account shall be deemed ineligible to the extent of the amount owing by the Account Debtor with respect to such returned Inventory and such returned Inventory shall not be Eligible Inventory.
10. COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS.
(a) Until Agent notifies the Borrowers’ Agent to the contrary, Grantors shall make collection of all Accounts and other Collateral for Agent, shall receive all payments as Agent’s trustee, and shall immediately deliver all payments in their original form duly endorsed in blank into a Payment Account established for the account of Grantors at a Clearing Bank acceptable to Agent, subject to a Blocked Account Agreement; provided, that, prior to the Dominion Date, Grantors shall have access to and full use of all such collections deposited into a Payment Account. On or prior to the date hereof, Grantors shall establish a lock-box service for collections of Accounts at a Clearing Bank acceptable to Agent and subject to a Blocked Account Agreement and other documentation acceptable to Agent. Grantors shall instruct all Account Debtors to make all payments directly to the address established for such service. If, notwithstanding such instructions, any Grantor receives any proceeds of Accounts, it shall
9
receive such payments as Agent’s trustee, and shall immediately deposit such payments into a Payment Account; provided, that, prior to the Dominion Date, Grantors shall have access to and full use of all such amounts deposited into a Payment Account. On and after the Dominion Date, all collections received in any lock-box or Payment Account or directly by any Grantor or Agent, and all funds in any Payment Account or other account to which such collections are deposited, shall be subject to Agent’s sole control and withdrawals by Grantors shall not be permitted.
(b) Agent or Agent’s designee may, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, notify Account Debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to Agent and of Agent’s security interest therein, and may collect them directly and charge the collection costs and expenses to the Loan Account as a Revolving Loan. So long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Grantors, at Agent’s request, shall execute and deliver to Agent such documents as Agent shall require to grant Agent access to any post office box in which collections of Accounts are received.
(c) If sales of Inventory are made or services are rendered for cash, Grantors shall immediately deposit into a Payment Account the cash which any Grantor receives; provided, that, prior to the Dominion Date, Grantors shall have access to and full use of all such amounts deposited into a Payment Account.
(d) All payments received by Agent will be Agent’s sole property for its benefit and the benefit of Lenders and will be credited to the Loan Account (conditional upon final collection) after allowing two (2) Business Days for collection (except for wire transfers of immediately available funds, which will be credited upon receipt); provided, however, that such payments shall be deemed to be credited to the Loan Account immediately upon receipt for purposes of (i) determining Availability, (ii) calculating the Unused Line Fee pursuant to Section 2.5 of the Credit Agreement, and (iii) calculating the amount of interest accrued thereon solely for purposes of determining the amount of interest to be distributed by Agent to Lenders (but not the amount of interest payable by Grantors).
(e) In the event Grantors repay all of the Obligations upon the termination of the Credit Agreement or upon acceleration of the Obligations, other than through Agent’s receipt of payments on account of the Accounts or proceeds of the other Collateral, such payment will be credited (conditioned upon final collection) to Grantor’s Loan Account two (2) Business Days after Agent’s receipt of immediately available funds.
11. INVENTORY.
(a) Each Grantor represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders and agrees with Agent and Lenders that all of the Inventory owned by such Grantor is and will be held for sale or lease, or to be furnished in connection with the rendition of services, in the ordinary course of such Grantor’s business, and is and will be fit for such purposes. Each Grantor will keep its Inventory in good and marketable condition, except for damaged or defective goods arising in the ordinary course of such Grantor’s business. Each Grantor agrees that all Inventory produced by such Grantor in the United States of America will be produced in accordance with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, and all rules, regulations, and orders thereunder. Grantors will conduct a physical count of the Inventory at least once per Fiscal Year,
10
and after and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at such other times as Agent requests.
(b) In connection with all Inventory financed by Letters of Credit, Grantors will, at Agent’s request, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders, customs brokers, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, Documents or Instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to deliver them to Agent and/or subject to Agent’s order, and if they shall come into a Grantor’s possession, to deliver them, upon request, to Agent in their original form. Grantors shall also, at Agent’s request, designate Agent as the consignee on all bills of lading and other negotiable and non-negotiable documents.
12. EQUIPMENT.
(a) Each Grantor represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders and agrees with Agent and Lenders that all of the Equipment owned by such Grantor material to the conduct of its business is and will be used or held for use in such Grantor’s business, and is and will be fit for such purposes. Each Grantor shall keep and maintain its Equipment material to the conduct of its business in good operating condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and shall make all necessary replacements thereof.
(b) No Grantor shall permit any Equipment to become subject to any Lien other than Permitted Liens.
13. ASSIGNED CONTRACTS. Each Grantor shall fully perform all of its obligations under each of the Assigned Contracts, and shall enforce all of its rights and remedies thereunder, in each case, as it deems appropriate in its business judgment; provided, however, that, during the existence of an Event of Default, no Grantor shall take any action or fail to take any action with respect to its Assigned Contracts which would cause the termination of a material Assigned Contract or have a materially adverse effect upon the full enforcement of all indemnification rights under its Assigned Contracts. Grantors shall notify Agent and Lenders in writing, promptly after any Grantor becomes aware thereof, of any event or fact which could give rise to a material claim by a Grantor for indemnification under any of its Assigned Contracts, and shall pursue such right as it deems appropriate in its business judgment and report to Agent on all further developments with respect thereto. After the Dominion Date, Grantors shall deposit into the Payment Account or remit directly to Agent for application to the Obligations, all amounts received by any Grantor as indemnification or otherwise pursuant to its Assigned Contracts. If any Grantor shall fail after Agent’s demand to pursue diligently any right under its Assigned Contracts, or if an Event of Default then exists and is continuing, Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, directly enforce such right in its own or such Grantor’s name and may enter into such settlements or other agreements with respect thereto as Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, shall determine. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Agent for the benefit of Lenders under any Assigned Contract for any sum owing thereunder or to enforce any provision thereof, Grantors shall indemnify and hold Agent and Lenders harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaims, recoupment, or reduction of liability whatsoever of the obligor thereunder arising out of a breach by any Grantor of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing from any Grantor to or in favor of such
11
obligor or its successors. All such obligations of Grantors shall be and remain enforceable only against Grantors and shall not be enforceable against Agent or Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, Grantors shall at all times remain liable to observe and perform all of their duties and obligations under their Assigned Contracts, and Agent’s or any Lender’s exercise of any of their respective rights with respect to the Collateral shall not release any Grantor from any of such duties and obligations. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be obligated to perform or fulfill any of Grantors’ duties or obligations under their Assigned Contracts or to make any payment thereunder, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment or property received by it thereunder or the sufficiency of performance by any party thereunder, or to present or file any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance, any payment of any amounts, or any delivery of any property.
14. DOCUMENTS, INSTRUMENTS, AND CHATTEL PAPER. Each Grantor represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that (a) all Documents, Instruments, and Chattel Paper describing, evidencing, or constituting Collateral, and all signatures and endorsements thereon, are and will be complete, valid, and genuine, and (b) all goods evidenced by such Documents, Instruments, Letter-of-Credit Rights and Chattel Paper are and will be owned by such Grantor, free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens. If any Grantor retains possession of any Chattel Paper or Instruments with Agent’s consent, such Chattel Paper and Instruments shall be marked with the following legend: “This writing and the obligations evidenced or served hereby are subject to the security interest of Bank of America, N.A., as Agent, for the benefit of Agent and certain Lenders.”
15. RIGHT TO CURE. Agent may, in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders, pay any amount or do any act required of any Grantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document in order to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce the Obligations, the Collateral or Agent’s Liens therein, and which any Grantor fails to pay or do after written request from Agent, including payment of any judgment against any Grantor, any insurance premium, any warehouse charge, any finishing or processing charge, any landlord’s or bailee’s claim, and any other Lien upon or with respect to the Collateral. All payments that Agent makes under this Section 15 and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses that Agent pays or incurs in connection with any action taken by it hereunder shall be charged to the Loan Account as a Revolving Loan. Any payment made or other action taken by Agent under this Section 15 shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to proceed thereafter as herein provided.
16. POWER OF ATTORNEY. Each Grantor hereby appoints Agent and Agent’s designee as such Grantor’s attorney, with power: (a) so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to endorse such Grantor’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, or other forms of payment or security that come into Agent’s or any Lender’s possession; (b) so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to sign such Grantor’s name on any invoice, xxxx of lading, warehouse receipt or other negotiable or non-negotiable Document constituting Collateral, on drafts against customers, on assignments of Accounts, on notices of assignment, financing statements and other public records and to file any such financing statements by electronic means with or without a signature as authorized or required by applicable law or filing procedure; (c) so long as any Event of Default has occurred
12
and is continuing, to notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of such Grantor’s mail to an address designated by Agent and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor; (d) to send requests for verification of Accounts to customers or Account Debtors; (e) so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to complete in such Grantor’s name or Agent’s name, any order, sale or transaction, obtain the necessary Documents in connection therewith, and collect the proceeds thereof; (f) so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to clear Inventory through customs in such Grantor’s name, Agent’s name or the name of Agent’s designee, and to sign and deliver to customs officials powers of attorney in such Grantor’s name for such purpose; (g) to the extent that such Grantor’s authorization given in Section 3(g) of this Security Agreement is not sufficient, to file such financing statements with respect to this Security Agreement, with or without such Grantor’s signature, or to file a photocopy of this Security Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as Agent may deem appropriate, and to execute in such Grantor’s name such financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require such Grantor’s signature; and (h) so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to do all things necessary to carry out the Credit Agreement and this Security Agreement. Each Grantor ratifies and approves all acts of such attorney. None of Lenders or Agent nor their attorneys will be liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law except for their willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Credit Agreement has been terminated and the Obligations have been fully satisfied.
17. AGENT’S AND LENDERS’ RIGHTS, DUTIES AND LIABILITIES.
(a) Grantors assume all responsibility and liability arising from or relating to the use, sale, license or other disposition of the Collateral. The Obligations shall not be affected by any failure of Agent or any Lender to take any steps to perfect Agent’s Liens or to collect or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral release any Grantor from any of the Obligations. Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent may (but shall not be required to), and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, without notice to or consent from any Grantor, xxx upon or otherwise collect, extend the time for payment of, modify or amend the terms of, compromise or settle for cash, credit, or otherwise upon any terms, grant other indulgences, extensions, renewals, compositions, or releases, and take or omit to take any other action with respect to the Collateral, any security therefor, any agreement relating thereto, any insurance applicable thereto, or any Person liable directly or indirectly in connection with any of the foregoing, without discharging or otherwise affecting the liability of any Grantor for the Obligations or under the Credit Agreement or any other agreement now or hereafter existing between Agent and/or any Lender and any Grantor.
(b) It is expressly agreed by each Grantor that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, such Grantor shall remain liable under each of its contracts and each of its licenses to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under any contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by Agent or any Lender of any payment relating to any contract or license pursuant hereto. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Grantor under or
13
pursuant to any contract or license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any contract or license, or to present or file any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
(c) Agent may at any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or if any rights of set-off (other than set-offs against an Account arising under the contract giving rise to the same Account) or contra accounts may be asserted with respect to the following), without prior notice to any Grantor, notify Account Debtors, and other Persons obligated on the Collateral, that Agent has a security interest therein, and that payments shall be made directly to Agent, for itself and the benefit of Lenders. Upon the request of Agent, Grantors shall so notify Account Debtors, and other Persons obligated on Collateral. Once any such notice has been given to any Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, Grantors shall not give any contrary instructions to such Account Debtor or other Person without Agent’s prior written consent.
(d) Agent may at any time in Agent’s own name or in the name of any Grantor communicate with Account Debtors, parties to contracts and agreements to which any Grantor is a party, and obligors in respect of Instruments to verify with such Persons, to Agent’s satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of Accounts, contracts and agreements, payment intangibles, Instruments or Chattel Paper. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Grantors, at their own expense, shall cause the independent certified public accountants then engaged by Grantors to prepare and deliver to Agent and each Lender at any time and from time to time promptly upon Agent’s request the following reports with respect to Grantors: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such Accounts as Agent may request. Grantors, at their own expense, shall deliver to Agent the results of each physical verification, if any, which Grantors may in their discretion have made, or caused any other Person to have made on their behalf, of all or any portion of their Inventory.
18. PATENT, TRADEMARK AND COPYRIGHT COLLATERAL.
(a) Each Grantor represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that (i) such Grantor does not have any interest in, or title to, any Patent, Trademark or Copyright as of the date hereof except as set forth in Schedule III hereto, (ii) the Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing Lien on and, upon filing of the Copyright Security Agreement with the United States Copyright Office and filing of the Patent and Trademark Agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the filing of appropriate financing statements, perfected Liens in favor of Agent on such Grantor’s patents, trademarks and copyrights and such perfected Liens are enforceable as such as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from such Grantor, and (iii) upon filing of the Copyright Security Agreements with the United States Copyright Office and filing of the Patent and Trademark Agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the filing of appropriate financing statements, all actions necessary to protect and perfect Agent’s Lien on such Grantor’s patents, trademarks or copyrights shall have been duly taken.
14
(b) Each Grantor shall promptly notify Agent if it knows or has reason to know that any application or registration relating to any material patent, trademark or copyright (now or hereafter existing) may become abandoned or dedicated, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any material patent, trademark or copyright, its right to register the same, or to keep and maintain the same.
(c) In no event shall any Grantor, either directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an application for the registration of any patent, trademark or copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency without giving Agent prior written notice thereof, and, upon request of Agent, Grantor shall execute and deliver any and all patent security agreements, copyright security agreements or trademark security agreements as Agent may request to evidence Agent’s Lien on such patent, trademark or copyright, and the General Intangibles of each Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.
(d) Subject to Grantors commercially reasonable business judgment, Grantors shall take all actions necessary or requested by Agent to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of the patents, trademarks and copyrights (now or hereafter existing), including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of noncontestability and opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings.
(e) In the event that any of the material patent, trademark or copyright Collateral is infringed upon, or misappropriated or diluted by a third party, Grantors shall notify Agent promptly after any Grantor learns thereof. Grantors shall, unless Grantors shall reasonably determine that such patent, trademark or copyright Collateral is in no way material to the conduct of their business or operations, promptly xxx for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and shall take such other actions as Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such patent, trademark or copyright Collateral.
19. INDEMNIFICATION. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Agent or any Lender relating to any Collateral for any sum owing with respect thereto or to enforce any rights or claims with respect thereto, Grantors will save, indemnify and keep Agent and Lenders harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, arising out of a breach by any Grantor of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to, or in favor of, such obligor or its successors from any Grantor, except in the case of Agent or any Lender, to the extent such expense, loss, or damage is attributable solely to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or such Lender. All such obligations of Grantors shall be and remain enforceable against and only against Grantors and shall not be enforceable against Agent or any Lender.
15
20. LIMITATION ON LIENS ON COLLATERAL. No Grantor will create, permit or suffer to exist, and will defend the Collateral against, and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except Permitted Liens, and will defend the right, title and interest of Agent and Lenders in and to any of such Grantor’s rights under the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.
21. NOTICE REGARDING COLLATERAL. Grantors will advise Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral, and (ii) of the occurrence of any other event which would have a Material Adverse Effect.
22. REMEDIES; RIGHTS UPON DEFAULT.
(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that in any such event Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of each Grantor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving any Grantor or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on Agent’s claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption each Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on each Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use each Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or times as Agent deems necessary or advisable.
(b) Each Grantor further agrees, at Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at a place or places designated by Agent which are reasonably convenient to Agent and such Grantor, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Until Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Agent. Agent shall have no obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of such Grantor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the
16
possession of Agent. Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of Agent and Lenders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as provided in the Credit Agreement, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Agent or any Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or such Lender as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Grantor agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by Agent of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any attorneys’ fees or other expenses incurred by Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency.
(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
(d) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (l) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 22(d) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Agent
17
would not be commercially unreasonable in Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 22(d). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 22(d) shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 22(d).
(e) EACH GRANTOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS WHICH IT HAS UNDER CHAPTER 14 OF TITLE 44 OF THE OFFICIAL CODE OF GEORGIA OR UNDER ANY SIMILAR PROVISION OF APPLICABLE LAW TO NOTICE AND TO A JUDICIAL HEARING PRIOR TO THE ISSUANCE OF A WRIT OF POSSESSION ENTITLING THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER, OR THE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS OF AGENT OR SUCH LENDER, TO POSSESSION OF THE COLLATERAL UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING AND WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER RIGHT WHICH AGENT OR LENDERS MAY HAVE, EACH GRANTOR CONSENTS THAT IF AGENT OR ANY LENDER FILES A PETITION FOR AN IMMEDIATE WRIT OF POSSESSION IN COMPLIANCE WITH SECTIONS 00-00-000 AND 00-00-000 OF THE OFFICIAL CODE OF GEORGIA OR UNDER ANY SIMILAR PROVISION OF APPLICABLE LAW, AND THIS WAIVER OR A COPY HEREOF IS ALLEGED IN SUCH PETITION AND ATTACHED THERETO, THE COURT BEFORE WHICH SUCH PETITION IS FILED MAY DISPENSE WITH ALL RIGHTS AND PROCEDURES HEREIN WAIVED AND MAY ISSUE FORTHWITH AN IMMEDIATE WRIT OF POSSESSION IN ACCORDANCE WITH CHAPTER 14 OF TITLE 44 OF THE OFFICIAL CODE OF GEORGIA OR IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY SIMILAR PROVISION OF APPLICABLE LAW, WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF AN ACCOMPANYING BOND AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY SECTION 00-00-000 OF THE OFFICIAL CODE OF GEORGIA OR BY ANY SIMILAR PROVISION UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
23. GRANT OF LICENSE TO USE PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. For the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 22 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 22 hereof, in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any Proprietary Rights now owned or hereafter acquired by any Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license 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.
24. LIMITATION ON AGENT’S AND LENDERS’ DUTY IN RESPECT OF COLLATERAL. Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any
18
agent or nominee of Agent or such Lender, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.
25. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the 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 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 Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
(b) Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desires to give and serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Credit Agreement.
(c) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable 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. This Security Agreement is to be read, construed and applied together with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents which, taken together, set forth the complete understanding and agreement of Agent, Lenders and Grantors with respect to the matters referred to herein and therein.
(d) No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Agent of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Agent would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None of the terms or
19
provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Agent and Grantors (or the Borrowers’ Agent on Grantors’ behalf).
(e) Limitation by Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.
(f) Termination of this Security Agreement. Subject to Section 25(a) hereof, this Security Agreement shall terminate upon the satisfactory collateralization of all Letters of Credit, the payment in full of all other Obligations (other than indemnification Obligations as to which no claim has been asserted), and the termination of all Commitments .
(g) Successors and Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of Grantors hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor (including any debtor-in-possession on behalf of any Grantor) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, hereunder, inure to the benefit of Agent and Lenders, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations and their respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner affect the Lien granted to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, hereunder. No Grantor may assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Security Agreement.
(h) Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one and the same agreement. This Security Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile or, if approved in writing by Agent, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid.
(i) Governing Law. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA OR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA LOCATED IN THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA, SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN GRANTORS, AGENT AND LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF
20
OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, LENDERS AND GRANTORS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF SUCH JURISDICTIONS, AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER, NOTHING IN THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF AGENT. EACH GRANTOR EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO THE BORROWERS’ AGENT AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 14.8 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.
(j) Waiver of Jury Trial. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATING HERETO BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, AMONG AGENT, LENDERS, AND GRANTOR ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.
(k) Section Titles. The Section titles contained in this Security Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.
(l) No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly
21
by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Security Agreement.
(m) Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed this Security Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 22(e), 25(i) and Section 25(j), with its counsel.
(n) Benefit of Lenders. All Liens granted or contemplated hereby shall be for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and all proceeds or payments realized from Collateral in accordance herewith shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.
(o) Joint and Several Obligations. Grantors shall be jointly and severally responsible for the performance of all obligations of any or all Grantors hereunder.
