or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the
Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so;
(e) the Secured Party
or its Representative may take immediate possession and occupancy
of any premises owned, used or leased by a Debtor and exercise all
other rights and remedies which may be available to the Secured
Party;
(f) the Secured Party
may, upon reasonable notice (such reasonable notice to be
determined by Secured Party in its sole and absolute discretion,
which shall not be less than ten (10) days), with respect to the
Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall
thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the
Secured Party or its Representative, sell, lease, license, assign
or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Collateral, at such
place or places as the Secured Party deems best, and for cash or
for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any
credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of
performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition
or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required
above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the
Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee,
licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so
disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law,
at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free
from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or
equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of Debtors, any such
demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived
and released. The Secured Party may, without notice or publication,
adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be
adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place
to which the sale may be so adjourned;

(g) the rights,
remedies and powers conferred by this Section 4.5 are in addition
to, and not in substitution for, any other rights, remedies or
powers that the Secured Party may have under any Transaction
Document, at law, in equity or by or under the UCC or any other
statute or agreement. The Secured Party may proceed by way of any
action, suit or other proceeding at law or in equity and no right,
remedy or power of the Secured Party will be exclusive of or
dependent on any other. The Secured Party may exercise any of its
rights, remedies or powers separately or in combination and at any
time; and
(h) each Debtor,
Secured Party and each Debtor’s bank shall enter into a
deposit account control agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to Secured Party that is sufficient to give Secured
Party “control” (for purposes of Articles 8 and 9 of
the Uniform Commercial Code) over such account and which directs
such bank to transfer such funds so deposited on a daily basis, or
at other times acceptable to Secured Party, to Secured Party,
either to any account maintained by Secured Party at said bank or
by wire transfer to appropriate account(s) at Secured Party. All
funds deposited in such Deposit Accounts shall immediately become
subject to the security interest of Secured Party for its own
benefit, and Secured Party shall obtain the agreement by such bank
to waive any offset rights against the funds so deposited. Secured
Party shall apply all funds received by it from the Deposit
Accounts to the satisfaction of the Obligations.
The
proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this
Section 4.5 shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.8
hereof.
It
being agreed and acknowledged that Secured Party shall not have any
rights and shall not take any action that will impair GPB’s
first priority lien and its rights under the agreements it has
entered into with the Company as described in the Subordination and
Intercreditor Agreement.
4.6 Deficiency. If the proceeds of
sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral are
insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization
and the payment in full of the Obligations, Debtors shall remain
jointly and severally liable for any deficiency.
4.7 Private Sale. Each Debtor
recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to effect a public
sale of any or all of the Collateral consisting of securities by
reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Act”), and applicable state
securities laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more
private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who will
be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Collateral
for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees
that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms
less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale
and each Debtor agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for
Secured Party to engage in any such private sales or dispositions
under such circumstances. The Secured Party shall be under no
obligation to delay a sale of any of the Collateral to permit a
Debtor to register such Collateral for public sale under the Act,
or under applicable state securities laws, even if Debtors would
agree to do so. The Secured Party shall not incur any liability as
a result of the sale of any such Collateral unless it does so in
violation of the rights of GPB, or any part thereof, at any private
sale provided for in this Agreement conducted in a commercially
reasonable manner, and so long as Secured Party conducts such sale
in a commercially reasonable manner each Debtor hereby waives any
claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that
the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a
private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained
at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the
Obligations, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer
received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one
offeree.
Each
Debtor further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts
and things as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any
portion or all of any such Collateral valid and binding and in
compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders,
writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts,
arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign,
having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at such
Debtor’s expense. Each Debtor further agrees that a breach of
any of the covenants contained in this Section 4.7 will cause
irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the Secured Party has
no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in this
Section 4.7 shall be specifically enforceable against Debtors, and
each Debtor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses
against an action for specific performance of such covenants except
for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.

4.8 Application of Proceeds. The
proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any
part of the Collateral, and any other cash at the time held by the
Secured Party under this Agreement, shall be applied, after the
payment in full of all obligations owed to GPB under the Senior
Documents, to the Obligations in such order as Secured Party shall
elect.
4.9 Attorney-in-Fact.
Each Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured
Party, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the
place and stead of such Debtor and in the name of such Debtor or in
its own name, from time to time in the discretion of the Secured
Party, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement,
to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver
any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
desirable to perfect or protect any security interest granted
hereunder, to maintain the perfection or priority of any security
interest granted hereunder, or to otherwise accomplish the purposes
of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right, on
behalf of such Debtor, without notice to or assent by such Debtor
(to the extent permitted by applicable law), subject to the rights
of holders of Permitted Liens and subject to the rights of GPB
under the Senior Documents, to do the following:
(a) to take any and all
appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents
and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish

and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or
other Instruments for the payment of moneys due under any
Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or
proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed
appropriate by the Secured Party for the purpose of collecting any
and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever payable and
to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any
court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the
Secured Party for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys
due under any Collateral whenever payable;

charges or liens levied or placed on or threatened against the
Collateral, to effect any insurance called for by the terms of this
Agreement and to pay all or any part of the premiums

of any and all moneys due, and to become due thereunder, directly

receive payment of and receipt for any and all moneys, claims and
other amounts due, and to become due at any time, in respect of or
arising out of any Collateral;
(e) upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to sign and
indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading,
storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments,
verifications and notices in connection with accounts and other
Documents constituting or relating to the Collateral;
(f) upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to commence and
prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in
any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or
any part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any
Collateral;
(g) upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to defend any
suit, action or proceeding brought against a Debtor with respect to
any Collateral;
(h) upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to settle,
compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above
and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases
as the Secured Party may deem appropriate;
|
|
|
|
-11-
(i) to the extent that
a Debtor’s authorization given in Section 4.1(b) of this Agreement is not
sufficient to file such financing statements with respect to this
Agreement, with or without such Debtor’s signature, or to
file a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing
statement, as the Secured Party may deem appropriate and to execute
in such Debtor’s name such financing statements and
amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require
such Debtor’s signature;
(j) upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, generally to
sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or
otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely
as though the Secured Party were the absolute owners thereof for
all purposes; and
(k) to do, at the
Secured Party’s option and at such Debtor’s expense, at
any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the
Secured Party reasonably deems necessary to protect or preserve or,
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party’s
lien therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all
as fully and effectively as such Debtor might do.
Each
Debtor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that
such attorneys lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof
provided the same is performed in a commercially reasonable manner.
The power of attorney granted hereunder is a power coupled with an
interest and shall be irrevocable until the Obligations are
indefeasibly paid in full in cash and this Agreement is terminated
in accordance with Section 4.11 hereof.
Each
Debtor also authorizes the Secured Party, at any time from and
after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of
Default, (x) to communicate in its own name with any party to any
Contract with regard to the assignment of the right, title and
interest of such Debtor in and under the Contracts hereunder and
other matters relating thereto and (y) to execute, in connection with any
sale of Collateral provided for in Section 4.5 hereof, any
endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or
transfer with respect to the Collateral.
4.10 Intentionally
Omitted.
4.11 Termination;
Partial Release of Collateral. This Agreement and the Liens
and security interests granted hereunder shall not terminate until
the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the Notes and the
full and complete performance and indefeasible satisfaction of all
the Obligations (i) in respect of the Transaction Documents
(including, without limitation, the indefeasible payment in full in
cash of all such Obligations) and (ii) with respect to which claims
have been asserted by the Collateral Agent/ and or Purchaser,
whereupon the Secured Party shall forthwith cause to be assigned,
transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any
recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining
Collateral to or on the order of Debtors. The Secured Party shall
also execute and deliver to Debtors upon such termination or in
connection with a Permitted Disposition and at Debtors’
expense such UCC termination statements, certificates for

reasonably requested by Debtors to effect the termination and
release of the Liens and security interests in favor of the Secured
Party affecting the Collateral.

take such further actions as the Secured Party or its
Representative may reasonably require in order for the Secured
Party to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the
rights and powers herein granted in favor of the Secured Party or
the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Party, including,
without limitation, using Debtors’ best efforts to secure all
consents and approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment
to the Secured Party of any Collateral held by Debtors or in which
a Debtor has any rights not heretofore assigned, the filing of any
financing or continuation statements under the UCC with respect to
the liens and security interests granted hereby, placing the
interest of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Party as
lienholder on the certificate of title of any Motor Vehicle in
accordance with the terms hereof, and obtaining waivers of liens

4.13 Limitation
on Duty of Secured Party. The powers conferred on the
Secured Party under this Agreement are solely to protect the
Secured Party’s interest in the Collateral and shall not
impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Secured
Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually
receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither
the Secured Party nor its Representative nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
responsible to Debtors for any act or failure to act, except for
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Secured Party and any Representative shall be deemed
to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation
of the Collateral in their possession if such Collateral is
accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the
relevant Secured Party or any Representative, in its individual
capacity, accords its own property consisting of the type of
Collateral involved, it being understood and agreed that neither
the Secured Party nor any Representative shall have any
responsibility for taking any necessary steps (other than steps
taken in accordance with the standard of care set forth above) to
preserve rights against any Person with respect to any
Collateral.
Also
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the
Secured Party nor any Representative shall have any obligation or
liability under any Contract or license by reason of or arising out
of this Agreement or the granting to the Secured Party of a
security interest therein or assignment thereof or the receipt by
the Secured Party or any Representative of any payment relating to
any Contract or license pursuant hereto, nor shall the Secured
Party or any Representative be required or obligated in any manner
to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of Debtors under or
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 claim, 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.
Section
5. Miscellaneous.
5.1 No Waiver. No failure on the
part of the Secured Party or any of its Representatives to
exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in

Secured Party or any of its Representatives of any right, power or

remedies provided by law.

respective notice addresses by written notice given to each other
party five (5) days prior to the effectiveness of such
change.

this Agreement may be waived, altered or amended only by an

amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Secured Party and the
Debtor sought to be charged or benefited thereby and their
respective successors and assigns.
5.5 Successors and Assigns. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
respective successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto,
provided, that no Debtor shall assign or transfer its rights
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.
Secured Party may assign its rights hereunder without the consent
of Debtors, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be
Secured Party hereunder with respect to such assigned rights;
provided, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Secured Party shall not assign any of its rights
hereunder to a competitor of the Company.
