law, the Debtor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against
the Secured Parties arising out of the exercise by the Secured Parties of any of
their respective rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale
or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall
be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten days before such sale or
other disposition. The Debtor shall remain liable for any deficiency
if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are
insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any
attorneys employed by the Secured Parties to collect such
deficiency.
8. Limitation
on Duties Regarding Preservation of Collateral. Each Secured
Party’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and preservation of
the Collateral, under Section 9207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to
deal with it in the same manner as such Secured Party deals with similar
property for its own account. Neither the Secured Parties nor any of
their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for
failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or
for any delay in doing so other than as a result of the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the same or shall be under any
obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of
the Debtor or otherwise.
9. Powers
Coupled with an Interest. All
authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement with respect to the
Collateral are irrevocable and are powers coupled with an interest.
11
10. No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Secured
Parties shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to
Section 12(a) hereof or as otherwise provided herein), delay, indulgence,
omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or
to have acquiesced in any default under the Notes or in any breach of any of the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. No failure to exercise,
nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Parties, any right,
power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No
single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Secured Parties of any
right or remedy under this Agreement on any one occasion shall not be construed
as a bar to any right or remedy which the Secured Parties would otherwise have
on any subsequent occasion. The rights and remedies provided in this
Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not
exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
11. Termination
of Security Interest. Upon satisfaction
of the Debtor’s obligations pursuant to the Notes, or conversion of all of the
Notes into shares of the Debtor’s equity securities pursuant to the terms of the
Note, the security interest granted herein shall terminate and all rights to the
Collateral shall revert to the Debtor. Upon any such termination, the
Secured Parties shall authenticate and deliver to the Debtor such documents as
the Debtor may reasonably request to evidence such termination.
12. Miscellaneous.
(a) Amendments
and Waivers. Any term of this
Agreement may be amended or waived with the written consent of the Debtor and
the Requisite Holders or their respective successors and assigns. Any
amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 12(a) shall be
binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and
assigns.
(b) Transfer;
Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions
of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Debtor and its successors and
assigns, as well as all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Agreement
and inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties and its successors and
assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended
to confer upon any party other than the Parties hereto or their respective
successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities
under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this
Agreement.
(c) Governing
Law. This Agreement
and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of
the Parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance
with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to principles of
conflicts of law.
(d) Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
12
(e) Titles
and Subtitles. The titles and
subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not
to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.
(f) Notices. Any notice
required or permitted by this Agreement shall be to the addresses and pursuant
to the Procedure set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
(h)
Severability. If one or more
provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law,
the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith, in order to
maintain the economic position enjoyed by each party as close as possible to
that under the provision rendered unenforceable. In the event that
the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for
such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this
Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if
such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement
shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(i) Entire
Agreement. This Agreement,
and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement between the
parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any and all other
written or oral agreements existing between the parties hereto concerning such
subject matter are expressly canceled.
(j) Additional
Holders. In the event that after the date hereof Exhibit A of the
Purchase Agreement is amended or modified to include additional persons or
entities thereon, the Debtor is hereby authorized to amend Exhibit A hereto to
reflect such additional persons or entities without any action of the Secured
Parties.
