a. Authority; Execution. Grantor has the right and power and is duly authorized and empowered to enter into, execute, deliver and perform this Security Agreement, and any other agreements, documents or instruments executed in connection herewith or therewith. Grantor’s execution and performance of this Security Agreement will not constitute, cause or result in any breach or violation of any provision of the partnership agreement, articles of incorporation or by-laws of Grantor, any law or any contractual obligation of Grantor and does not conflict with, constitute a default or require

any consent under (other than consents that if not obtained would not have a material adverse effect) or result in the creation of any Lien upon any property or assets of Grantor pursuant to any contractual obligation of Grantor. Upon execution, this Security Agreement will constitute a valid, binding obligation of Grantor to Lender that is enforceable according to its terms, except as the enforceability of this Security Agreement may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and except as the availability of equitable remedies are subject to the application of equitable principles. No further consent, ratification or approval is required for this Security Agreement to be effective.

b. Title to Collateral. Except for the security interest granted to Lender under this Security Agreement, Grantor is the sole owner of each item of the Collateral in which it purports to grant a security interest hereunder, having good and marketable title thereto free and clear of any and all liens, security interests or other encumbrances.

c. No Other Liens. No effective security agreement, financing statement, equivalent security or lien instrument or continuation statement covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as may have been filed by Grantor in favor of Lender pursuant to this Security Agreement or such as relate to protective filings with respect to equipment leases.

d. Perfection and Priority of Security Interest in the Collateral. The security interest granted to Lender in the Collateral under this Security Agreement is a duly perfected security interest in favor of Lender to secure the Secured Obligations, and is senior in priority to all other Liens against and security interests in all or any part of the Collateral.

e. Accounts. Subject to reasonable reserves therefore on the books of Grantor, each Account of Grantor is, or when it comes into existence will be, a statement of an indebtedness incurred by the obligor thereunder to Grantor in the amount shown thereon.

Grantor shall not change its chief executive office, principal place of business,

corporate offices, or warehouses or Collateral premises, or the location of its records concerning the Collateral, or its federal taxpayer identification number, without giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lender.

At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Lender, and at the sole expense of Grantor, Grantor shall promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action as Lender may reasonably deem desirable to obtain the full benefits of this Security Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including (i) filing any financing or continuation statements under the UCC with respect to the liens and security interests granted hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (ii) transferring Collateral to Lender’s possession (if such Collateral consists of Chattel Paper or if a security interest in such Collateral can be perfected only by possession, or, if requested by Lender). Grantor also hereby authorizes Lender to file any such financing or continuation statement without the signature of Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral is or shall become evidenced by any Instrument, such Instrument, other than checks and notes received in the ordinary course of business, shall be duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Lender and delivered to Lender immediately upon Grantor’s receipt thereof.

All Chattel Paper shall be marked with the following legend: “This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the security interest of American AgCredit, PCA.” For Lender’s further security, Grantor agrees that Lender shall have a special property interest in all of Grantor’s books and records pertaining to the Collateral and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, Grantor shall deliver and turn over any such books and records to Lender or to its representatives at any time on demand of Lender.

e. Limitation on Liens on Collateral. Grantor shall not create, permit or suffer to exist, and shall defend the Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral.

h. Continuous Perfection. Grantor shall not change its name, identity or corporate structure in any manner which might make any financing or continuation statement filed in connection herewith seriously misleading within the meaning of section 9-402(7) of the UCC or any other then applicable provision of the UCC unless Grantor shall have given Lender at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have taken all action (or made arrangements to take such action substantially

simultaneously with such change if it is impossible to take such action in advance) necessary or reasonably requested by Lender to amend such financing statement or continuation statement so that it is not seriously misleading.

i. Right of Inspection. Upon reasonable notice to Grantor (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case no notice is necessary), Lender shall at all times have full and free access during normal business hours to all the books and records and correspondence of Grantor, and Lender or its representatives may examine the same, take extracts therefrom and make photocopies thereof, and Grantor agrees to render to Lender, at Grantor’s cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto.

d. The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely to protect Lender’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Lender to exercise any such powers. Lender shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be responsible to Grantor for any act or failure to act, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

e. Grantor also authorizes Lender to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in Section 8 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.

8. Remedies, Rights Upon Default.

a. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender may exercise in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Original Credit Agreement, the First Amended Credit Agreement, the Second Amended Credit Agreement, the Third Amended Credit Agreement, the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement or any of the other Documents evidencing any loan obligations from Grantor to Lender, or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor expressly agrees that in any such event Lender, 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 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 Grantor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving Grantor notice and opportunity for a hearing on Lender’s claim or action, and without paying rent to Grantor, and collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, 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 public or private sale or sales, at any exchange or broker’s board or at any of Lender’s offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. 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 Lender the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. Lender shall have the right to conduct such sales on Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use Grantor’s premises without charge for such sales for such time or times as Lender deems necessary or advisable.

b. Grantor further agrees, at Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at places which Lender shall reasonably select, whether at Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Until Lender is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, Lender shall have the right to use or operate Collateral on behalf of Lender, 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 Lender. Lender shall have no obligation to Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of Grantor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Lender. Lender may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of Lender’s remedies with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing. Lender shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, as provided in Section 8(e) hereof, such Grantor remaining liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and only after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, including section 9-504(1)(c) of the UCC (but only after Lender has received what Lender considers reasonable proof of a subordinate party’s security interest), need Lender account for the surplus, if any, to Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such party. Grantor agrees that five (5) days’ prior notice by Lender 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. Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Lender is entitled, Grantor also being liable for any attorneys’ fees incurred by Lender to collect such deficiency.

c. Grantor agrees to pay any and all costs of Lender, including, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights and remedies hereunder.

g. Grantor acknowledges that Lender shall be entitled to independently, but without duplication, exercise the rights and remedies of Lender exercisable for their benefit under this Security Agreement.

9. Indemnity and Expenses.

b. Grantor will upon demand pay to Lender the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and of any experts and agents, which Lender may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Security Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Lender hereunder, or (iv) the failure by Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

10. Grant of License to Use Patent and Trademark Collateral. For the purpose of enabling Lender to exercise rights and remedies under Section 8 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 8 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 Lender shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, Grantor hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to Grantor) to use, transfer, license or sublicense any Patent, Trademark, trade secret, or copyright now owned or hereafter acquired by 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 and automatic machinery software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

11. Limitation on Lender’s Duty in Respect of Collateral. Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Lender shall have no other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of such party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

12. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should 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 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 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.

13. 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 or delivered to or served upon any of the parties by another, or whenever any of the parties desires to give or deliver or serve upon another any communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, or other communication shall be in writing, shall be addressed to the addresses set forth below, or such other or additional address as the parties may notify each other of in writing, and shall be deemed to have been sent, delivered, or given and received upon the earlier of: (a) if by facsimile, upon transmission if transmission occurs between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on any Business Day; (b) if by Federal Express or other overnight or one-day mail or delivery service, on the next Business Day following deposit with such delivery service; (c) if by personal delivery, upon completion of delivery; or (d) if by mail, three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. Mail, first class, postage prepaid:

or at such other address as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, or other communication to the persons designated above to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration, or other communication.

14. Severability. Any provision of this Security Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

15. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Lender shall not 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 Lender, and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that Lender would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of 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 provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Lender and Grantor affected by such waiver.

16. 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.

17. Termination of this Security Agreement. Subject to Section 12 hereof, this Security Agreement shall terminate upon full and final payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations.

18. Successor and Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of Grantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Grantor, and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, as permitted pursuant to the terms of the Original Credit Agreement, the First Amended Credit Agreement, the Second Amended Credit Agreement, the Third Amended Credit Agreement and the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein, as permitted pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, shall in any manner affect the security interest granted to Lender hereunder. Grantor may not assign, sell or otherwise transfer an interest in this Security Agreement except as provided by the Original Credit Agreement, the First Amended Credit Agreement, the Second Amended Credit Agreement, the Third Amended Credit Agreement or the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement.

19. Further Indemnification. Grantor agrees to pay, and to hold Lender harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all excise, sales, or other similar taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement.

20. Entire Agreement. The execution of this Security Agreement supersedes all the negotiations or stipulations concerning matters thereof that preceded or accompanied the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement. This Security Agreement is intended by the parties hereto to be a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and conditions hereof.

21. 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 CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF REGARDING CONFLICT OF LAWS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. GRANTOR HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE SUPERIOR COURTS OF SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, OR, AT LENDERS OPTION, THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA, SHALL HAVE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN GRANTOR AND LENDER PERTAINING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT. GRANTOR EXPRESSLY

SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH GRANTOR MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING FOR SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. 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, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO GRANTOR AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 13 OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF GRANTOR’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE LENDER OR GRANTOR FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

22. MUTUAL 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 THEIR DISPUTES 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 ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

23. Amendments; etc. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement nor consent to any departure by Grantor from any provision of the Security Agreement, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

24. Interpretation. No provision of this Security Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party’s having or being deemed to have structured, drafted or dictated such provision.

25. 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.

26. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of identical counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Security Agreement shall become effective when Lender shall have received all original executed counterparts.

27. Further Assurances. Grantor agrees, upon the written request of Lender, to execute and deliver to Lender, from time to time, any additional instruments or documents reasonably considered necessary by Lender to cause this Security Agreement and the Secured Obligations to be, become, or remain valid and effective, and to cause Lender’s security interest in the pledged Collateral to be, become, or remain duly perfected.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused this Security Agreement to be executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer on the date first set forth above.
