6.
Covenants.
The
Company covenants and agrees with the Secured Parties that from and after the
date of this Security Agreement and until the Obligations are fully
satisfied:
18
(a)
Further
Documentation.
At any
time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Secured Parties,
and
at the sole expense of the Company, the Company will promptly and duly execute
and deliver any and all such further documents and take such further action
as
any Secured Party may reasonably request in carrying out the terms and
conditions of this Security Agreement and the rights and powers herein granted,
including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation
statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any jurisdiction
with
respect to the security interests granted hereby.
(b)
Continuous
Perfection.
The
Company will not change its name, identity or corporate structure in any manner
unless the Company shall have given the Secured Parties at least 10 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
any Secured Party to amend any financing statement or continuation statement
filed with respect to the Collateral so that it is not misleading.
(c)
Insurance.
The
Company will insure the Collateral against such risks and hazards as other
companies similarly situated insure against, in amounts and under policies
which
it currently holds and under such additional or substituted amounts or policies
as it may from time to time determine, which shall be reasonably acceptable
to
the Secured Parties (providing that no cancellation of such insurance shall
be
effective without 30 days written notice to the Secured Parties and containing
loss payable clauses to the Secured Parties as their interest may appear) and
all premiums thereon shall be paid by the Company.
6.
Remedies,
Rights Upon Default.
(a)
In
addition to any other rights given to the Secured Parties hereunder, if an
Event
of Default shall occur and be continuing and any Secured Party shall have
declared the amounts owing under the Note(s) to be due and payable (or such
amounts shall have automatically, become due and payable), all payments received
by the Company under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be
subject to the subordination provisions contained in the preceding Section
2,
held by the Company in trust for the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from
other funds of the Company and shall, if requested by any Secured Party
forthwith upon receipt by the Company be turned over to the Secured Parties,
in
the same form as received by the Company (duly endorsed by the Company to the
Secured Parties, if required).
19
If
any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing
and subject to the subordination provisions of the preceding Section 2, any
Secured Party may exercise in addition to all other rights and remedies granted
to it in this Security Agreement or in any other instrument or agreement
securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations or at law or in equity,
all
rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company expressly agrees that in any such
event, the Secured Parties, without demand of performance or other demand,
(except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale)
to or upon the Company or any other person may forthwith collect, receive,
appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may
forthwith sell, lease, assign, give 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 broker's board or at any of the Secured Parties’ 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. Each Secured Party 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 the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right
or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption the Company hereby releases.
The Company further agrees, at any Secured Party’s request, to assemble the
Collateral, make it available to one or more of the Secured Parties at places
which a Secured Party shall reasonably select, whether at the Company's premises
or elsewhere. The Secured Parties shall apply the net proceeds of any such
collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after
deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein
or
incidental to the care, safe keeping or otherwise of any or all of the
Collateral or in any way relating to the rights of the Secured Parties
hereunder, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, to the
payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, the Company remaining liable
for
any deficiency remaining unpaid after the application, and only after so paying
over such net proceeds and after the payment by the Secured Parties of any
other
amount required by any provision of law. To the extent permitted by applicable
law, the Company waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Secured
Parties arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral.
The Company agrees that a Secured Party need not give more than 10 days notice
of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private
sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such
matters. The Company 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 a Secured Party is entitled.
The
Company hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security
Agreement or any Collateral.
8.
Application
of Proceeds.
Subject
to the subordination provisions contained in the preceding Section 2, the
Proceeds of all sales and collections in respect of any Collateral shall be
applied as follows:
(a)
First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such sales and collections,
the expenses of Secured Parties and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel
to the Secured Parties;
(b)
Second, any surplus then remaining to the payment of the Obligations in such
order and manner consistent with the provisions of Section 3 above as the
Secured Parties may in their sole discretion determine; and
(c)
Third, any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Company.
9.
Limitation
on Secured Parties’ Duty in Respect of Collateral.
Beyond
the use of reasonable care in the custody thereof, no Secured Party shall have
any duty as to any Collateral in their possession or control or in the
possession or control of any agent or nominee of it or any income thereon or
as
to the preservation of rights against prior Secured Parties or any other rights
pertaining thereto.
20
10.

Any
notice, request or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall

11.
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.
21
12.
No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.
No
Secured Parties shall by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to
have
waived any of their rights or remedies hereunder and no waiver shall be valid
unless in writing, signed by the Secured Party, and then only to the extent
therein set forth. A waiver by a Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder
on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy
which
the Secured Parties would otherwise have had on any future occasion and shall
not apply to any other Secured Party. No failure to exercise nor any delay
in
exercising on the part of a Secured Party, 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 or 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.
13.
Successors

Security Agreement and all obligations of the Company hereunder shall be binding
upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company, and shall, together
with the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder, inure to the
benefit of each of the Secured Parties and their successors and permitted
assigns; provided that the Company may not assign any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the Secured
Parties.
14.
Waiver
and Amendment.
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 the
Company and the Secured Party against whom such waiver, alteration, modification
or amendment is sought to be enforced.
15.

This
Security Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
domestic laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice
of
law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California
or
any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of California.
16.
Counterparts.
This
Security Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts each of which will
be an original and all of which taken together will constitute one and the
same
agreement.

facsimile of a signature shall be deemed to be the same, and equally
enforceable, as an original of such signature.

Warrant
To Purchase 20,000,000 Shares of Common Stock
Itec
Environmental Group, inc.
Date
of
Issuance: August 14, 2006
No.
93
THIS
CERTIFIES that, for value received, Arbor Xxxxxx, LLC, or its assigns (in either
case, the “Holder”) is entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this
Warrant, from Itec Environmental Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), at the price per share set forth in Section 8 hereof, that number of
shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) set forth in Section 7
hereof. This Warrant is referred to herein as the “Warrant” and the shares of
Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms hereof are sometimes referred to
herein as “Warrant Shares.”
1. Holder
Exercise of Warrant.
This
Warrant shall only be exercisable in whole. All shares of Common Stock issued
upon the exercise of this Warrant at the time of issuance will be validly
issued, fully paid, and nonassessable. To exercise this Warrant in whole, the
Holder shall deliver to the Company at its principal office, (a) a written
notice, in substantially the form of the exercise notice attached hereto as
Exhibit
A
(the
“Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant, which
notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased and
be
accompanied by a check for the full amount of the aggregate Exercise Price
(as
defined in Section 8(a) below) for the Warrant Shares so purchased and (b)
this
Warrant. The Company shall as promptly as practicable, and in any event within
twenty (20) days after delivery to the Company of (i) the Exercise Notice
together with payment of the Exercise Price, (ii) and this Warrant, execute
and
deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, in accordance with such notice,
a
certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of Warrant Shares
specified in such notice. Each certificate representing Warrant Shares shall
bear the legend or legends required by applicable securities laws. The Company
shall pay all expenses and other charges payable in connection with the
preparation, issuance and delivery of such stock certificates except that,
in
case such stock certificates shall be registered in a name or names other than
the name of the Holder, funds sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes, if
any, that are payable upon the issuance of such stock certificate or
certificates shall be paid by the Holder at the time of delivering the Exercise
Notice.
The
Holder shall also have the right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof
(the "Conversion Right"), without payment by the Holder of the Exercise Price
in
cash or any other consideration (other than the surrender of rights to receive
Warrant Shares hereunder), into shares of Common Stock as provided in this
Section 1. Upon receipt by the Company of a duly executed and completed
Conversion Notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
B
for the
exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to a particular number of Warrant
Shares (the "Converted Warrant Shares"), the Company shall deliver to the Holder
(without payment by the Holder of the Exercise Price in cash or any other
consideration (other than the surrender of rights to receive Warrant Shares
hereunder)) that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained
by dividing: (x) the difference between (i) the product of (A) the Current
Market Price of a share of Common Stock multiplied by (B) the number of
Converted Warrant Shares and (ii) the product of (A) the Exercise Price
multiplied by (B) the number of the Converted Warrant Shares, in
each
case as of the Conversion Date, by (y) the Current Market Price of a share
of
Common Stock on the Conversion Date. The term “Conversion Date” shall be the
date a duly executed and completed Conversion Notice is received by the Company.
No fractional Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion
Right, and if the number of Warrant Shares to be issued determined in accordance
with the following formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall,
at
its election, pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Current Market
Price of the resulting fractional Warrant Share on the Conversion Date or round
up to the next nearest whole share.
27
The
term
"Current Market Price" for the shares of Common Stock as of a specified date
shall mean: (i) if the shares of Common Stock are publicly traded on such date,
the average closing price per share over the preceding 10 trading days as
reported on the principal stock exchange or quotation system on which the shares
of Common Stock are then listed or quoted; (ii) if the shares of Common Stock
are not so publicly traded on such date, the value determined in good faith
by
the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, that if Holder shall dispute
such value determined by the Board of Directors the value shall be the appraised
value per share of Common Stock as of such date determined by an investment
banking firm of recognized standing selected by the Company and reasonably
satisfactory to the Holder. In the event the appraised value is greater than
120% of the value of determined by the Board of Directors, the cost of such
appraisal shall be borne by the Company and in all other circumstances, the
cost
of such appraisal shall be borne by the Holder.
The
Warrant shall expire on August 14, 2010 (the “Expiration Date”). The Holder may
exercise the warrant at any time prior to the Expiration Date.
2. Reservation
of Shares.
The
Company hereby covenants that at all times during the term of this Warrant
there
shall be reserved for issuance such number of shares of its Common Stock as
shall be required to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant.
3.
Fractional
Shares.
This
Warrant may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of Common Stock,
and
no fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant.
4.
Transfer
of Warrant and Warrant Shares.
The
Holder may sell, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise transfer (“Transfer”) this
Warrant, in whole or in part, only if such sale, pledge, hypothecation, or
transfer is made in compliance with the Act or pursuant to an available
exemption from registration under the Act relating to the disposition of
securities. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Company agrees to issue
to
any successor or transferee of Holder a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor
promptly upon receipt of Holder’s notice of any such Transfer and shall issue to
Holder a new Warrant representing any portion hereof that is not so Transferred.
5.
Loss
of Warrant.
Upon
receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, or
destruction of this Warrant, and of indemnification satisfactory to it, or
upon
surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will
execute and deliver a new warrant of like tenor.
6.
Rights
of the Holder.
No
provision of this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder
the
right to vote, consent, receive dividends or receive notice other than as
expressly provided herein. Prior to exercise, no provision hereof, in the
absence of affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant, and no
enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise
to
any liability of the holder for the purchase price of any warrant shares or
as a
stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company
or
by creditors of the Company.
7.
Number
of Warrant Shares.
This
Warrant shall be exercisable for 20,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common
Stock, as adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Agreement.
8.
Exercise
Price; Adjustment of Warrants.
a.
Exercise
Price.
The per
share purchase price (the “Exercise Price”) for each of the Warrant Shares
purchasable under this Warrant shall be equal to $0.12, as adjusted from time
to
time in accordance with this Agreement.
28
b. Adjustment
for Mergers or Reorganization, etc.
In case
of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation
or the conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
to
another corporation, this Warrant shall be exercisable into the number of shares
of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of
shares of Common Stock of the Company deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant
would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or conveyance; and,
in
any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined by the Board of Directors
of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions herein set
forth with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holder of this
Warrant, to the end that the provisions set forth herein shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as reasonable may be, in relation to any shares of stock
or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
c. Adjustment
in the Case of Certain Transactions or Events.
The Exercise Price shall be adjusted downward in the event the Company issues
Common Stock (or securities exercisable for or convertible into or exchangeable
for common stock) at a price below the Exercise Price, to a price equal to
such
issue price. The preceding adjustment shall be effective immediately at the
time
of the issuance of any security issued (or of any reduction in effective price
of any security). In addition, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise hereof shall be appropriately adjusted in the
case
of stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like.
d.
NO
IMPAIRMENT.
THE
COMPANY WILL NOT, THROUGH ANY REORGANIZATION, TRANSFER OF ASSETS, CONSOLIDATION,
MERGER, DISSOLUTION, ISSUE OR SALE OF SECURITIES OR ANY OTHER VOLUNTARY ACTION,
AVOID OR SEEK TO AVOID THE OBSERVANCE OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF THE TERMS TO
BE
OBSERVED OR PERFORMED HEREUNDER BY THE COMPANY, BUT WILL AT ALL TIMES IN GOOD
FAITH ASSIST IN THE CARRYING OUT OF ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION AND
IN
THE TAKING OF ALL SUCH ACTION AS MAY BE NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE IN ORDER TO
PROTECT THE EXERCISE RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER OF THIS WARRANT AGAINST IMPAIRMENT.
e. Issue
Taxes.
The
Company shall pay issue taxes that may be payable in respect of any issue or
delivery of shares of Common Stock on exercise of this Warrant, in whole;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer
taxes resulting from any transfer requested by any holder in connection with
any
such exercise.
f.
Reservation
of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion.
The
Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized
but
unissued shares of common stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the
exercise of this Warrant, such number of its shares of common stock as shall
from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant; and
if
at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock shall
not be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will
take
all appropriate corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be
necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of common stock to
such
number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.
9. Certain
Distributions.
In case
the Company shall, at any time, prior to the Expiration Date, declare any
distribution of its assets to holders of its common stock as a partial
liquidation, distribution or by way of return of capital, other than as a
dividend payable out of earnings or any surplus legally available for dividends,
then the Holder shall be entitled, upon the proper exercise of this Warrant
in
whole prior to the effecting of such declaration, to receive, in addition to
the
shares of common stock issuable on such exercise, the amount of such assets
(or
at the option of the Company a sum equal to the value thereof at the time of
such distribution to holders of common stock as such value is determined by
the
Board of Directors of the Company in good faith), which would have been payable
to the Holder had it been a holder of record of such shares of common stock
on
the record date for the determination of those holders of Common Stock entitled
to such distribution.
10. Dissolution
or Liquidation.
In case
the Company shall, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, dissolve, liquidate
or wind up its affairs, the Holder shall be entitled, upon the proper exercise
of this Warrant in whole and prior to any distribution associated with such
dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, to receive on such exercise, in lieu
of
the shares of Common Stock to which the Holder would have been entitled, the
same kind and amount
of
assets as would have been distributed or paid to the Holder upon any such
dissolution, liquidation or winding up, with respect to such shares of Common
Stock had the Holder been a holder of record of such share of Common Stock
on
the record date for the determination of those holders of Common Stock entitled
to receive any such dissolution, liquidation, or winding up distribution.
29
11.
Reclassification
or Reorganization.
In case
of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding
shares of common stock of the Company (other than a change in par value, or
from
par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result
of
an issuance of common stock by way of dividend or other distribution or of
a
subdivision or combination), the Company shall cause effective provision to
be
made so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter by exercising this
Warrant, to receive the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities
and property
receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization or other change,
that a holder of the number of shares of common stock which might have been
purchased upon exercise of this warrant immediately prior to such
reclassification or change would have received. Any such provision shall include
provision for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this warrant. The foregoing
provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications, capital reorganizations and changes of shares of common
stock. in the event that in any such capital reorganization, reclassification,
or other change, additional shares of common stock shall be issued in exchange,
conversion, substitution or payment, in whole, for or of a security of the
company other than common stock, any amount of the consideration received upon
the issue thereof being determined by the board of directors of the company
shall be final and binding on the holder.
