The Collateral shall not include any copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks and applications therefor, now owned or hereafter acquired, or any claims for damages by way of any past, present and future infringement of nay of the foregoing, provided, however, that the Collateral shall include all Accounts and General Intangibles that consist of rights to payment and proceeds from the sales licensing or other disposition of all or any part of, or rights in, the foregoing.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 1(a) above, the types or items of Collateral described in such Section 1(a) shall not include any right or interest in any contract, permit or application covering real or personal property of Obligor, as such, if
under the terms of such contract, permit or application or applicable law with respect thereto, the valid grant of a security interest to Secured Party is prohibited as a matter of law or under the terms thereof and such prohibition has not been or is not waived or the consent of the other party to such contract, permit, or application has not been or is not otherwise obtained; provided, however, that, the foregoing exclusion shall in no way be construed (i) to apply if any such prohibition is unenforceable under the UCC or other applicable law or (ii) so as to limit, impair or otherwise affect Secured Party’s unconditional continuing security interest in or upon any rights or interests of Obligor in or to monies due or to become due under any such contract, permit or application.
(c) Perfection of Security Interests.
(i) Obligor authorizes Secured Party (or its agent) to file at any time and from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Secured Party or its designee as the secured party and Obligor as debtor, as Secured Party may require, and including any other information with respect to Obligor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of such jurisdictions as Secured Party may determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on or after the date hereof. Obligor authorizes Secured Party to adopt on behalf of Obligor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In no event shall Obligor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Secured Party or its designee as secured party and Obligor as debtor.
(ii) Obligor shall take any other actions reasonably requested by Secured Party from time to time to cause the attachment and perfection of, and the ability of Secured Party to enforce, the security interest of Secured Party in the Collateral.
2. Covenants Relating to Collateral; Indebtedness; Dividends. Obligor covenants that:
(a) it shall at all times: (i) be the sole owner of or have the power to transfer without restriction (other than Permitted Liens as defined in the Facility Agreement) each and every item of Collateral and (ii) defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons, in each case except for the security interest created hereby and for Permitted Liens as defined in the Facility Agreement;
(b) it will comply in all material aspects with the requirements of all lease agreements relating to premises where any Collateral is located;
(c) it will give Secured Party twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any change to its name;
(d) it will give Secured Party twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any change to its chief executive office or its mailing address; and
(e) it will give Secured Party twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of any change to its type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure.
