9.3. Rights and Remedies.

(a) Lender shall have the right to exercise any and all rights and remedies provided for herein, under the other Loan Documents or under the Uniform Commercial Code and at law or equity generally, including the right to foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize upon any Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the Collateral with or without judicial process. Lender may enter any of any Borrower’s premises or other premises without legal process and without incurring liability to any Borrower therefor, and Lender may thereupon, or at any time thereafter, in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral and remove the same to such place as Lender may deem advisable and Lender may require any Borrower to make the Collateral available to Lender at a convenient place. With or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Lender may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon such terms, either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Lender may elect. Except as to that part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender shall give Borrowers reasonable notification of such sale or sales, such notice being deemed sufficient to provide notice to all Borrowers, it being agreed that in all events written notice mailed to Borrowers at least 10 days prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification. At any public sale Lender may bid for and become the purchaser, and Lender or any other purchaser at any such sale thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity of redemption and all such claims, rights and equities are hereby expressly waived and released by each Borrower. In connection with the exercise of the foregoing remedies, including the sale of Inventory, Lender is granted a perpetual nonrevocable, royalty free, nonexclusive license and Lender is granted permission to use all of Borrowers’ (a) trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, copyrights, service marks, licenses, franchises and other proprietary rights which are used or useful in connection with Inventory for the purpose of marketing, advertising for sale and selling or otherwise disposing of such Inventory and (b) Equipment for the purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished goods. The cash proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 9.6 hereof. Noncash proceeds will only be applied to the Obligations as they are converted into cash. If any deficiency shall arise, each Borrower shall remain liable to Lender therefor.

(b) To the extent that the Law imposes duties on the Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Customers or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against customers and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Borrower, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Lender against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Lender, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.

(c) Each Borrower acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 9.3 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in Lender’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 9.3. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9.3 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Borrower or to impose any duties on Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by Law in the absence of this Section 9.3. Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies Lender may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any other action with respect thereto and such determination will not in any way modify or affect any of Lender’s or Lenders’ rights hereunder.

(d) The enumeration of the foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any rights or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies provided for herein or otherwise provided by law, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative.

9.4. Default Rate of Interest . At the election of Lender, after the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as it continues, the Term Loan A and Revolving Loan and other Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

9.5. Setoff Rights. During the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby authorized by each Borrower at any time or from time to time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to such Borrower (any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived and such notice being deemed sufficient to provide notice to all Loan Parties) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (A) balances held by Lender at any of its offices for the account of any Borrower (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower), and (B) other property at any time held or owing by Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or for the account of any Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations then due and payable. Each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that Lender may exercise its right to set off with respect to the Obligations as provided in this Section 9.5.

9.6. Application of Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by Lender from or on behalf of such Borrower of all or any part of the Obligations and (b) all such payments and all proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to all Costs; second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); third, to all outstanding principal of the Obligations; and fourth to any other indebtedness or obligations of such Borrower owing to Lender under the Loan Documents. Any balance remaining shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

10.ASSIGNABILITY.

10.1. Assignments by Borrowers. None of the Borrowers shall have the right to assign this Agreement or any interest therein except with the prior written consent of Lender.

11.GENERAL PROVISIONS

11.1. Modification.

(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document shall be amended, modified or supplemented, or any provision waived, without the written agreement of Borrowers and Lender at the time of such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver, and each such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(b) Lender shall have the absolute right to require full and complete performance of Borrowers’ covenants and obligations and strict compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrowers. Failure by Lender to insist upon full and prompt performance of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or failure by Lender to take action in the event of any breach of any such provision or Event of Default, shall not constitute a waiver of any rights of Lender or any course of conduct, and Lender may at any time thereafter exercise all rights specified herein, in any other Loan Document or provided by Law with respect to such breach or Event of Default. If Lender fails to insist on strict performance of any covenant or condition herein, Lender shall make such election or determination, in Lender’s exclusive discretion. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all consents, to be granted herein, shall be granted or withheld, or continued to be granted or withheld, in Lender’s exclusive discretion. Lender shall have no duty to Borrowers to exercise any judgment or discretion under the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document for the benefit of Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges that failure to require strict compliance by such Borrower with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not constitute a waiver by Lender or establish a course of conduct, and that Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right to insist on strict compliance with all provisions thereafter. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives any right to assert that it detrimentally relied upon such continued waiver or that Lender acted in bad faith in insisting upon strict compliance by such Borrower with the provisions of this Agreement or in exercising any right or remedy expressly granted to Lender hereunder. Receipt by Lender of any instrument or document shall not constitute or be deemed to be an approval thereof.

11.2. Severability. If any provision (in whole or in part) of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be deemed modified, restricted, or reformulated to the extent and in the manner necessary to render the same valid and enforceable, or shall be deemed excised from this Agreement and/or such Loan Document, as the case may require, and this Agreement and/or such Loan Document shall be construed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, as if such provision had been originally incorporated herein as so modified, restricted, or reformulated or as if such provision had not been originally incorporated herein, as the case may be. Borrowers and Lender further agree to seek a lawful substitute for any provision found to be unlawful. If such modification, restriction or reformulation is not reasonably possible, the remainder of this Agreement and other the Loan Documents and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be affected thereby and the provisions of this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be severable in any such instance.

11.3. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Borrowers and Lender, provided that this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and no interest or right hereunder or thereunder may be assigned by any Borrower without prior written consent of Lender which may be withheld in Lender’s sole and exclusive discretion.

11.4. Liability Prior to Termination. Except to the extent provided to the contrary in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall in any way affect or impair the powers, obligations, duties, rights and liabilities of Borrowers or Lender in any way or respect relating to any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination or cancellation with respect to any of the undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of Borrowers or Lender contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

11.5. Waiver of Notice Omitted. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each Borrower waives any and all notice or demand which such Borrower might be entitled to receive with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by virtue of any applicable statute or law, and waives presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, protest, default, dishonor, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Lender on which such Borrower may in any way be liable and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard.

11.6. Designated Person. Until Lender is notified by any Borrower to the contrary in writing by registered or certified mail directed to Lender’s principal place of business, the signature upon this Agreement or upon any of the other Loan Documents of any officer, partner, manager or employee of any Borrower or of any other Person designated in writing to Lender by any of the foregoing, or of a Responsible Officer shall bind all Borrowers and be deemed to be the duly authorized act of such Borrower.

11.7. Indemnification. Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend, and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all losses, Costs, liabilities, actual damages, and expenses (including other expenses incident thereto) of every kind, nature and description, that result from or arise out of (a) the breach of any representation or warranty of any Borrower set forth in this Agreement or in any certificate, schedule, or other instrument by any Borrower pursuant hereto, (b) the breach of any of the covenants of any Borrower contained in or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or (c) any third party claims relating to the conduct of any Borrower’s business (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct).

11.8. No Third Party Beneficiaries; Relationship of Borrowers and Lender. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender, Borrowers and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing contained herein or therein shall be deemed to confer upon any other Person any right to insist on or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations, terms or covenants contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms and no other Persons shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions. No Borrower is and shall not be an Affiliate of Lender for any purpose. Unless and until Lender expressly assumes the Obligations following an Event of Default, Lender shall not be deemed to be in privity of contract with any contractor or provider of services to the Collateral, and in no event shall any payment of funds directly to a contractor or subcontractor or provider of services by itself be deemed to create any third-party beneficiary status or recognition of same by Lender. Lender is not an Affiliate of any Borrower for any purposes, unless Lender expressly exercises a right or remedy hereunder or under any Loan Document as the attorney-in-fact of such Borrower. The relationship between Borrowers and Lender shall be solely that of borrower and lender. No term in this Agreement or in the Loan Documents and no course of dealing between the parties, nor any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender or by any Borrower shall be deemed to create any relationship of agency, partnership or joint venture or any fiduciary duty by Lender to any Borrower or any other Person. Lender undertakes no responsibility to any Borrower to review or inform such Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of such Borrower’s business or operations. All rights and remedies granted to Lender in the Loan Documents shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any rights and remedies to which it is entitled in equity, at law or by statute, and the invalidity of any right or remedy herein provided by reason of its conflict with Law or statute shall not affect any other valid right or remedy afforded to Lender. No waiver of any Event of Default or of any default in the performance of any covenant contained in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall at any time thereafter be held to be a waiver of any rights of Lender under this Agreement or any Loan Document, nor shall any waiver of a prior Event of Default or default operate to waive any subsequent Event of Default or default. All remedies provided for herein and in any Loan Document, at law or in equity are cumulative and may, at the election of Lender, be exercised alternatively, successively, or concurrently. No act of Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein or in any other Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision or to proceed against one portion of the Collateral to the exclusion of any other portion. Each Borrower agrees that Lender shall not have any liability to any Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought.

11.9. Acceptance by Lender. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are submitted by Borrowers to Lender (for Lender’s acceptance or rejection thereof) at Lender’s principal place of business as an offer by Borrowers to borrow monies from Lender now and from time to time hereafter and shall not be binding upon Lender or become effective until and unless accepted by Lender, in writing, at said place of business. If so accepted by Lender, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been made at said place of business.

11.10. Prior Agreements; Interpretation. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents supersede in their entirety any other agreement or understanding between Lender, and Borrower with respect to loans and advances made by Lender and all commitments of Lender in connection therewith.

11.11. Notice. Any and all notices given in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed adequately given only if in writing and addressed to the party for whom such notices are intended at the address set forth below. All notices shall be sent by personal delivery, FedEx or other overnight messenger service, first class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or electronic mail (“E-mail”).
