(a/k/a RM Aerospace/Defense, Inc.).
Debtor hereby represents and agrees that:
OWNERSHIP. Debtor owns the Collateral or Debtor will purchase and acquire rights in the Collateral within ten days of the date advances are made under the Loan Documents. If Collateral is being acquired with the proceeds of an advance under the Loan Documents, Debtor authorizes Bank to disburse proceeds directly to the seller of the Collateral. The Collateral is free and clear of all liens, security interests, and claims except those previously reported in writing to and approved by Bank, and Debtor will keep the Collateral free and clear from all liens, security interests and claims, other than those granted to or approved by Bank.
NAME AND OFFICES; JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION. The name and address of Debtor appearing at the beginning of this Agreement are Debtor’s exact legal name and the address of its chief executive office. There has been no change in the name of Debtor, or the name under which Debtor conducts business, within the five years preceding the date

Debtor has not moved its chief executive office within the five years preceding the date hereof except as previously reported in writing to Bank. Debtor is organized under the laws of the State of Nevada and has not changed the jurisdiction of its organization within the five years preceding the date hereof except as previously reported in writing to Bank.
TITLE/TAXES. Debtor has good and marketable title to the Collateral and will warrant and defend same against all claims. Debtor will not transfer, sell, or lease Collateral (except as permitted herein). Debtor agrees to pay promptly all taxes and assessments when due unless contested in good faith through appropriate procedures upon or for the use of Collateral and on this Security Agreement. At its option, Bank may discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on Collateral no sooner than ten days after the Borrowers failure to do so. Debtor agrees to reimburse Bank, on demand, for any such payment made by Bank. Any amounts so paid shall be added to the Secured Obligations.
WAIVERS. Debtor agrees not to assert against Bank as a defense (legal or equitable), as a set-off, as a counterclaim, or otherwise, any claims Debtor may have against any seller or lessor that provided personal property or services relating to any part of the Collateral or against any other party liable to Bank for all or any part of the Secured Obligations. Debtor waives all exemptions and homestead rights with regard to the Collateral. Debtor waives any and all rights to any bond or security which might be required by applicable law prior to the exercise of any of Bank’s remedies against any Collateral. All rights of Bank and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of Debtor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, not discharged or impaired irrespective of (and regardless of whether Debtor receives any notice of): (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance, or in any term, of all or any of the Secured Obligations or the Loan Documents or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document unless agreed to in writing by the parties; or (iii) any exchange, insufficiency, unenforceability, enforcement, release, impairment or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release of or modifications to or insufficiency, unenforceability or enforcement of the obligations of any guarantor or other obligor. To the extent permitted by law, Debtor hereby waives any rights under any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws now existing or which may hereafter exist and which, but for this provision, might be applicable to any sale or disposition of the Collateral by Bank; and any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of any party with respect to the Secured Obligations.
NOTIFICATIONS; LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. Debtor will notify Bank in writing at least 30 days prior to any change in: (i) Debtor’s chief place of business and/or residence; (ii) Debtor’s name or identity; (iii) Debtor’s corporate/organizational structure; or (iv) the jurisdiction in which Debtor is organized. In addition, Debtor shall promptly notify Bank of any material claims or alleged claims of any other person or entity to the Collateral or the institution of any litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation or administrative proceedings against or affecting the Collateral. Debtor will keep Collateral at the location(s) previously provided to Bank until such time as Bank provides written advance consent to a change of location. Debtor will bear the cost of preparing and filing any documents necessary to protect Bank’s liens.
COLLATERAL CONDITION AND LAWFUL USE. Debtor represents that the Collateral is in good repair and condition and that Debtor shall use reasonable care to prevent Collateral from being damaged or depreciating, normal wear and tear excepted. Debtor shall immediately notify Bank of any material loss or damage to Collateral. Debtor shall not permit any item of Collateral to become an accession to other property unless such property is also Collateral hereunder. Debtor represents it is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Collateral and its properties, operations, business, and finances.
RISK OF LOSS AND INSURANCE. Debtor shall bear all risk of loss with respect to the Collateral. The injury to or loss of Collateral, either partial or total, shall not release Debtor from payment or other performance hereof. Debtor agrees to obtain and keep in force property insurance on the Collateral with a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement in favor of Bank and commercial general liability insurance naming Bank as Additional Insured and such other insurance as Bank may require from time to time.
2
Such insurance is to be in form and amounts satisfactory to Bank and issued by reputable insurance carriers satisfactory to Bank with a Best Insurance Report Key Rating of at least “A-”. All such policies shall provide to Bank a minimum of 30 days written notice of cancellation. Debtor shall furnish to Bank such policies, or other evidence of such policies satisfactory to Bank. If Debtor fails to obtain or maintain in force such insurance or fails to furnish such evidence, Bank is authorized, but not obligated, to purchase any or all insurance or “Single Interest Insurance” protecting such interest as Bank deems appropriate against such risks and for such coverage and for such amounts, including either the loan amount or value of the Collateral, all at its discretion, and at Debtor’s expense. In such event, Debtor agrees to reimburse Bank for the cost of such insurance and Bank may add such cost to the Secured Obligations. Debtor shall bear the risk of loss to the extent of any deficiency in the effective insurance coverage with respect to loss or damage to any of the Collateral. Debtor hereby assigns to Bank the proceeds of all property insurance covering the Collateral up to the amount of the Secured Obligations and directs any insurer to make payments directly to Bank. During the continuance of a Default or the occurrence of an event that will likely lead to a Default, Debtor hereby appoints Bank its attorney-in-fact, which appointment shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest for so long as Secured Obligations are unpaid, to file proof of loss and/or any other forms required to collect from any insurer any amount due from any damage or destruction of Collateral, to agree to and bind Debtor as to the amount of said recovery, to designate payee(s) of such recovery, to grant releases to insurer, to grant subrogation rights to any insurer, and to endorse any settlement check or draft. Debtor agrees not to exercise any of the foregoing powers granted to Bank without Bank’s prior written consent.
FINANCING STATEMENTS, CERTIFICATES OF TITLE, POWER OF ATTORNEY. No financing statement (other than any filed or approved by Bank) covering any Collateral is on file in any public filing office other than Permitted Liens. Debtor authorizes the filing of one or more financing statements covering the Collateral in form satisfactory to Bank, and without Debtor’s signature where authorized by law, agrees to deliver certificates of title on which Bank’s lien has been indicated covering any Collateral subject to a certificate of title statute, and will pay all costs and expenses of filing or applying for the same or of filing this Security Agreement in all public filing offices, where filing is deemed by Bank to be desirable. Debtor hereby constitutes and appoints Bank the true and lawful attorney of Debtor with full power of substitution to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents, instruments or applications that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purpose and carry out the terms of this Security Agreement, including, without limitation, to complete, execute, and deliver any Control Agreement(s) by Bank, Debtor and Third Party(ies) that may be or become required in connection herewith (individually and collectively the “Control Agreement”), and any instructions to Third Party(ies) regarding, among other things, control and disposition of any Collateral which is the subject of such Control Agreement(s). The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full. Neither Bank nor anyone acting on its behalf shall be liable for acts, omissions, errors in judgment, or mistakes in fact in such capacity as attorney-in-fact. Debtor ratifies all acts of Bank as attorney-in-fact. Debtor agrees to take such other actions, at Debtor’s expense, as might be requested for the perfection, continuation and assignment, in whole or in part, of the security interests granted herein and to assure and preserve Bank’s intended priority position. If certificates, passbooks, or other documentation or evidence is/are issued or outstanding as to any of the Collateral, Debtor will cause the security interests of Bank to be properly protected, including perfection by notation thereon or delivery thereof to Bank.
LANDLORD/MORTGAGEE WAIVERS. If requested by Bank, Debtor shall cause each mortgagee of real property owned by Debtor and each landlord of real property leased by Debtor to execute and deliver instruments satisfactory in form and substance to Bank by which such mortgagee or landlord subordinates its rights, if any, in the Collateral.
CONTROL. Debtor will cooperate with Bank in obtaining control with respect to Collateral consisting of electronic chattel paper. Debtor authorizes and directs Third Party to comply with the terms of this Security Agreement, to enter into a Control Agreement, to xxxx its records to show the security interest of and/or the transfer to Bank of the property pledged hereunder.
3
CHATTEL PAPER, ACCOUNTS, GENERAL INTANGIBLES. Debtor warrants that Collateral consisting of chattel paper, accounts, or general intangibles is (i) genuine and enforceable in accordance with its terms; (ii) not subject to any defense, set-off, claim or counterclaim of a material nature against Debtor except as to which Debtor has notified Bank in writing; and (iii) not subject to any other circumstances that would impair the validity, enforceability, value, or amount of such Collateral except as to which Debtor has notified Bank in writing. Debtor shall not amend, modify or supplement any lease, contract or agreement contained in Collateral or waive any provision therein, without prior written consent of Bank. Debtor will not create any tangible chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel paper acceptable to Bank indicating that Bank has a security interest in the chattel paper. Debtor will not create any electronic chattel paper without taking all steps deemed necessary by Bank to confer control of the electronic chattel paper upon Bank in accordance with the UCC.
ACCOUNT INFORMATION. From time to time, at Bank’s request, Debtor shall provide Bank with schedules describing all accounts, including customers’ addresses, created or acquired by Debtor and at Bank’s request shall execute and deliver written assignments of contracts and other documents evidencing such accounts to Bank. Together with each schedule, Debtor shall, if requested by Bank, furnish Bank with copies of Debtor’s sales journals, invoices, customer purchase orders or the equivalent, and original shipping or delivery receipts for all goods sold, and Debtor warrants the genuineness thereof.
ACCOUNT DEBTORS. If a Default should occur, Bank shall have the right to notify the account debtors obligated on any or all of the Collateral to make payment thereof directly to Bank and Bank may take control of all proceeds of any such Collateral, which rights Bank may exercise at any time. The cost of such collection and enforcement, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, shall be borne solely by Debtor whether the same is incurred by Bank or Debtor. If a Default should occur or upon demand of Bank, Debtor will, upon receipt of all checks, drafts, cash and other remittances in payment on Collateral, deposit the same in a special bank account maintained with Bank, over which Bank also has the power of withdrawal.
If a Default should occur, no discount, credit, or allowance shall be granted by Debtor to any account debtor and no return of merchandise shall be accepted by Debtor without Bank’s consent. Bank may, after Default, settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts and upon terms that Bank considers advisable, and in such cases Bank will credit the Secured Obligations with the net amounts received by Bank, after deducting all of the reasonable expenses incurred by Bank. Debtor agrees to indemnify and defend Bank and hold it harmless with respect to any claim or proceeding arising out of any matter related to collection of Collateral.
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS. If any Collateral covered hereby arises from obligations due to Debtor from any governmental unit or organization, Debtor shall immediately notify Bank in writing and execute all documents and take all actions deemed necessary by Bank to ensure recognition by such governmental unit or organization of the rights of Bank in the Collateral.
INVENTORY. So long as no Default has occurred, Debtor shall have the right in the regular course of business, to process and sell Debtor’s inventory. If a Default should occur or upon demand of Bank, Debtor will, upon receipt of all checks, drafts, cash and other remittances, in payment of Collateral sold, deposit the same in a special bank account maintained with Bank over which Bank also has the power of withdrawal. Debtor agrees to notify Bank immediately in the event that any inventory purchased by or delivered to Debtor is evidenced by a xxxx of lading, dock warrant, dock receipt, warehouse receipt or other document of title and to deliver such document to Bank upon request.
INSTRUMENTS, CHATTEL PAPER, DOCUMENTS. Any Collateral that is, or is evidenced by, instruments, chattel paper or negotiable documents will be properly assigned to and the originals of any such Collateral in tangible form deposited with and held by Bank, unless Bank shall hereafter otherwise direct or consent in writing. During the continuance of a Default, Bank may, without notice, before or after maturity of the Secured Obligations, exercise any or all rights of collection, conversion, or exchange and other similar rights, privileges and options pertaining to such Collateral, but shall have no duty to do so.
4
COLLATERAL DUTIES. Bank shall have no custodial or ministerial duties to perform with respect to Collateral pledged except as set forth herein; and by way of explanation and not by way of limitation, Bank shall incur no liability for any of the following: (i) loss or depreciation of Collateral (unless caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence), (ii) failure to present any paper for payment or protest, to protest or give notice of nonpayment, or any other notice with respect to any paper or Collateral.
TRANSFER OF COLLATERAL. Bank may assign its rights in Collateral or any part thereof to any assignee who shall thereupon become vested with all the powers and rights herein given to Bank with respect to the property so transferred and delivered, and Bank shall thereafter be forever relieved and fully discharged from any liability with respect to such property so transferred, but with respect to any property not so transferred, Bank shall retain all rights and powers hereby given.
INSPECTION, BOOKS AND RECORDS. Debtor will at all times keep accurate and complete records covering each item of Collateral, including the proceeds therefrom. Bank, or any of its agents, shall have the right, at intervals to be determined by Bank and without hindrance or delay, at Debtor’s expense, to inspect, audit, and examine the Collateral during normal business hours and to make copies of and extracts from the books, records, journals, orders, receipts, correspondence and other data relating to Collateral, Debtor’s business or any other transaction between the parties hereto. Debtor will at its expense furnish Bank copies thereof upon request. For the further security of Bank, it is agreed that Bank has and is hereby granted a security interest in all books and records of Debtor pertaining to the Collateral.
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Debtor will comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws and regulations, applicable to it, including without limitation, laws and regulations relating to the environment, labor or economic sanctions, in the creation, use, operation, manufacture and storage of the Collateral and the conduct of its business.
REGULATION U. None of the proceeds of the credit secured hereby shall be used directly or indirectly for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock in violation of any of the provisions of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Regulation U”), or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry margin stock or for any other purchase which might render the Loan a “Purpose Credit” within the meaning of Regulation U.
CROSS COLLATERALIZATION LIMITATION.

Without limitation thereto, Bank shall have the following rights and remedies: (i) to take immediate possession of Collateral, without notice or resort to legal process, and for such purpose, to enter upon any premises on which Collateral or any part thereof may be situated and to remove the same therefrom, or, at its option, to render Collateral unusable or dispose of said Collateral on Debtor’s premises; (ii) to require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Bank at a place to be designated by Bank; (iii) to exercise its or its affiliate’s right of set-off or Bank lien as to any monies of Debtor deposited in deposit accounts and investment accounts of any nature maintained by Debtor with Bank or affiliates of Bank, without advance notice, regardless of whether such accounts are general or special; (iv) to dispose of Collateral, as a unit or in parcels, separately or with any real property interests also securing the Secured Obligations, in any county or place to be selected by Bank, at either private or public sale (at which public sale Bank may be the purchaser) with or without having the Collateral physically present at said sale.
Any notice of sale, disposition or other action by Bank required by law and sent to Debtor at Debtor’s address shown above, or at such other address of Debtor as may from time to time be shown on the records of Bank, at least 10 days prior to such action, shall constitute reasonable notice to Debtor.

Debtor waives any and all requirements that the Bank sell or dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at any particular time, regardless of whether Debtor has requested such sale or disposition.
REMEDIES ARE CUMULATIVE. No failure on the part of Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Bank or any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law, in equity, or in other Loan Documents.
INDEMNIFICATION. Debtor shall protect, indemnify and save harmless Bank from and against all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, fines, causes of action, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Damages”) imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or assessed against Bank on account of or in connection with (i) the Loan Documents or any failure or alleged failure of Debtor to comply with any of the terms of, or the inaccuracy or breach of any representation in, the Loan Documents, (ii) the Collateral or any claim of loss or damage to the Collateral or any injury or claim of injury to, or death of, any person or property that may be occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the Collateral or the use, occupancy or operation thereof, (iii) any failure or alleged failure of Debtor to comply with any law, rule or regulation applicable to it or to the Collateral or the use, occupancy or operation of the Collateral (including, without limitation, the failure to pay any taxes, fees or other charges), (iv) any Damages whatsoever by reason of any alleged action, obligation or undertaking of Bank relating in any way to or any matter contemplated by the Loan Documents, or (v) any claim for brokerage fees or such other commissions relating to the Collateral or any other Secured Obligations.

The indemnity provided for herein shall survive payment of the Secured Obligations and shall extend to the officers, directors, employees and duly authorized agents of Bank. In the event Bank incurs any Damages arising out of or in any way relating to the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents
6
(including any of the matters referred to in this section), the amounts of such Damages shall be added to the Secured Obligations, shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the interest rate borne by the Secured Obligations from the date incurred until paid and shall be payable on demand.
MISCELLANEOUS. (i) Amendments and Waivers.

Debtor irrevocably agrees to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction in the state identified as the Jurisdiction above. (v) Severability. If any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective but only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement.
