2. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; COLLATERAL.

2.2 The Company Remains Liable. The Company shall remain liable to perform its duties and obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral in accordance with their respective terms to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed and delivered. The exercise by Purchasers’ Agent or any Purchaser of any right, remedy, power or privilege in respect of this Agreement shall not release the Company from any of its duties and obligations under such contracts and agreements. Neither Purchasers’ Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any duty, obligation or liability under such contracts and agreements or in respect to any government approval included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor shall Purchasers’ Agent or any Purchaser be obligated to perform any of the duties or obligations of the Company under any such contract or agreement or any such government approval or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim (for payment) under any such contract or agreement or government approval.
2.3 Perfection; Financing Statement. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall (a) file such financing statements and other documents in such offices (including without limitation the filing of notices with the United States Copyright Office and Patent and Trademark Office and any office in any other country for the perfection of security interests in the Company Intellectual Property Rights), including one or more Intellectual Property Security Agreements, as shall be necessary or as Purchasers’ Agent may request to perfect and establish the priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) of the Liens granted by this Agreement, and (b) take all such other actions as shall be necessary or as Purchasers’ Agent may request to perfect and establish the priority (subject only to such Permitted Liens) of the Liens granted by this Agreement. If any recording or filing thereof (or the filing of any statements of continuation or assignment of any financing statement) is required to protect and preserve such lien or security interest, the Company shall at its cost execute the same at the time and in the manner requested by the Purchasers. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company authorizes Purchasers’ Agent to file any such financing statements without the
signature of the Company, and each of the Purchasers authorizes Purchasers’ Agent to sign the Intellectual Property Security Agreements and other documents, certificates and instruments and take all other actions necessary or material to perfect and establish the priority of the Liens granted by this Agreement.
2.4 Use of Collateral. So long as an Event of Default does not exist, the Company shall have the right (a) to use and possess the Collateral, (b) to exercise its rights, title and interest in all contracts, agreements, licenses and government approvals related thereto, and (c) to manage its property and sell its inventory in the ordinary course of business.

EXERCISE ANY RIGHT HEREUNDER, SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF ANY OBLIGATION OF THE COMPANY HEREUNDER, OR ANY RIGHT OF PURCHASERS’ AGENT’S OR THE PURCHASERS HEREUNDER, AND SHALL NOT AFFECT IN ANY WAY THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE FULL PERFORMANCE AT ANY TIME THEREAFTER.
5. APPOINTMENT OF AGENT.
5.1 Appointment; Joint Action. Each Purchaser hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Purchasers’ Agent to act as its agent under this Agreement with such powers as are specifically delegated to Purchasers’ Agent by the terms of the Purchase Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental to such powers; provided, however, that any action required or permitted to be taken by Purchasers’ Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall require the consent of Purchasers’ Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchasers’ Agent shall be entitled under this Agreement upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default (i) to ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, receive and give receipt and discharge for amounts due and to become due under and in respect of all or any part of the Collateral; (ii) to receive; endorse and collect any instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (i) above (including any draft or check representing the proceeds of insurance or the return of unearned premiums); (iii) to file any claims or take any action or proceeding that Purchasers’ Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the collection of all or any part of the Collateral, including the collection of any compensation due and to become due under any contract or agreement with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; and (iv) to execute, in connection with any sale or disposition of the collateral under Section 4, any endorsements, assignments, bills of sale or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any part of the Collateral.
5.2 Payments Pro Rata. Purchasers’ Agent and the Purchasers agree that payments to the Purchasers under the Notes shall be made in proportion to the principal and accrued interest then outstanding under each Note on any such date of payment to each, until such obligations are paid or retired in full.
5.3 Sharing of Payments. If any Purchaser shall at any time receive any payment of principal, interest or other charge arising under a Note, or upon any other obligation of the Company or any sums by virtue of counterclaim, offset, or other lien that may be exercised, or from any security, other than payments made on the same date and pro rata to all the Purchasers, such Purchaser shall return such payment to Purchasers’ Agent, who shall immediately dispense such payment or payments ratably among all the Purchasers so as to maintain as near as possible the unpaid balance of the loans pro rata according to the Purchasers’ proportionate interests.
6. MISCELLANEOUS.
6.1 Termination.

such termination such Uniform Commercial Code termination statements and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the termination and release of the Liens granted by this Agreement on the Collateral.
