2.1 Debtor shall furnish to Secured Party, in form and at intervals as Secured Party may request, any information Secured Party may reasonably request and shall allow Secured Party to examine, inspect, and copy any of Debtor’s books and records. Debtor shall, at the request of Secured Party, xxxx its records and the Collateral to clearly indicate the security interest of Secured Party under this Agreement.
2.2 At the time any Collateral becomes, or is represented to be, subject to a security interest in favor of Secured Party, Debtor shall be deemed to have warranted that (a) Debtor is the lawful owner of the Collateral and has the right and authority to subject it to a security interest granted to Secured Party; (b) none of the Collateral is subject to any security interest other than that in favor of Secured Party and there are no financing statements on file, other than in favor of Secured Party; and (c) Debtor acquired its rights in the Collateral in the ordinary course of its business.
2.3 Debtor confirms that the Collateral is and will keep the Collateral free at all times from all claims, liens, security interests and encumbrances other than those in favor of Secured Party, and other than those agreed to by the Secured Party in writing. Debtor will not, without the prior written consent of Secured Party, sell, transfer, or lease, or permit to be sold, transferred or leased, any or all of the Collateral, except (where inventory is pledged as Collateral) for inventory in the ordinary course of its business and will not return any inventory to its supplier.

Debtor agrees that Secured Party has no obligation to acquire or perfect any lien on or security interest in any asset(s), whether realty or personalty, to secure payment of the Indebtedness, and Debtor is not relying upon assets in which Secured Party may have a lien or security interest for payment of the Indebtedness. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Debtor hereby authorizes Secured Party to prepare, execute and file all financing statements, continuation statements or other documents or instruments as Secured Party shall determine are necessary or desirable to perfect, evidence, continue or otherwise take action in connection with the security interests granted hereunder.
2.5 Debtor will pay within the time that they can be paid without interest or penalty all taxes, assessments and similar charges which at any time are or may become a lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any Collateral, except to the extent contested in good faith and bonded in a manner satisfactory to Secured Party. If Debtor fails to pay any of these taxes, assessments, or other charges in the time provided above, Secured Party has the option (but not the obligation) to do so, and Debtor agrees to repay all amounts so expended by Secured Party immediately upon demand, together with interest at the highest lawful default rate which could be charged by Secured Party to Debtor on any indebtedness.
- 3 -
2.6 Debtor will keep the Collateral in good condition and will protect it from loss, damage, or deterioration from any cause. Debtor has and will maintain at all times (a) with respect to the Collateral, insurance under an “all risk” policy against fire and other risks customarily insured against; and (b) public liability insurance and other insurance as may be required by law or reasonably required by Secured Party; all of which insurance shall be in amount, form and content, and written by companies as may be satisfactory to Secured Party, containing a lender’s loss payable endorsement acceptable to Secured Party. Debtor will deliver to Secured Party immediately upon demand evidence satisfactory to Secured Party that the required insurance has been procured. If Debtor fails to maintain satisfactory insurance, Secured Party has the option (but not the obligation) to do so and Debtor agrees to repay all amounts so expended by Secured Party immediately upon demand, together with interest at the highest lawful default rate which could be charged by Secured Party to Debtor on any indebtedness.
2.7 If Debtor’s accounts are pledged as Collateral under this Agreement, then on each occasion on which Debtor evidences to Secured Party the account balances on, and the nature and extent of, the accounts, Debtor shall be deemed to have warranted that except as otherwise indicated (a) each of those accounts is valid and enforceable without performance by Debtor of any act; (b) each of those account balances are in fact owing, (c) there are no setoffs, recoupments, credits, contra accounts, counterclaims or defenses against any of those accounts, (d) as to any accounts represented by a note, trade acceptance, draft or other instrument or by any chattel paper or document, the same have been endorsed and/or delivered by Debtor to Secured Party, (e) Debtor has not received with respect to any account, any notice of the death of the related account debtor, nor the dissolution, liquidation, termination of existence, insolvency, business failure, appointment of a receiver for, assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against, the account debtor, and (f) as to each account, the account debtor is not an affiliate of Debtor, the United States of America or any department, agency or instrumentality of it, or a citizen or resident of any jurisdiction outside of the United States. Debtor will do all acts and will execute all writings requested by Secured Party to perform, enforce performance of, and collect all accounts. Debtor shall neither make nor permit any modification, compromise or substitution for any account without the prior written consent of Secured Party. Debtor shall, at Secured Party’s request arrange for verification of accounts directly with account debtors or by other methods acceptable to Secured Party.
2.8 Debtor at all times shall be in strict compliance with all applicable laws, including without limitation any laws, ordinances, directives, orders, statutes, or regulations an object of which is to regulate or improve health, safety, or the environment (“Environmental Laws”).
2.9 If Secured Party, acting in its sole discretion, redelivers Collateral to Debtor or Debtor’s designee for the purpose of (a) the ultimate sale or exchange thereof; or (b) presentation, collection, renewal, or registration of transfer thereof; or (c) loading, unloading, storing, shipping, transshipping, manufacturing, processing or otherwise dealing with it preliminary to sale or exchange; such redelivery shall be in trust for the benefit of Secured Party and shall not constitute a release of Secured Party’s security interest in it or in the proceeds or products of it unless Secured Party specifically so agrees in writing. If Debtor requests any such redelivery, Debtor will deliver with such request a duly executed financing statement in form and substance satisfactory to Secured Party. Any proceeds of Collateral coming into Debtor’s possession as a result of any such redelivery shall be held in trust for Secured Party and immediately delivered to Secured Party for application on the Indebtedness. Secured Party may (in its sole discretion) deliver any or all of the Collateral to Debtor, and such delivery by Secured Party shall discharge Secured Party from all liability or responsibility for such Collateral. Secured Party, at its option, may require delivery of any Collateral to Secured Party at any time with such endorsements or assignments of the Collateral as Secured Party may request.
- 4 -
2.10 At any time and without notice, Secured Party may as to Collateral other than equipment, fixtures or inventory (a) cause any or all of such Collateral to be transferred to its name or to the name of its nominees; (b) receive or collect by legal proceedings or otherwise all dividends, interest, principal payments and other sums and all other distributions at any time payable or receivable on account of such Collateral, and hold the same as Collateral, or apply the same to the Indebtedness, the manner and distribution of the application to be in the sole discretion of Secured Party; (c) enter into any extension, subordination, reorganization, deposit, merger or consolidation agreement or any other agreement relating to or affecting such Collateral, and deposit or surrender control of such Collateral, and accept other property in exchange for such Collateral and hold or apply the property or money so received pursuant to this Agreement.
2.11 Secured Party may assign any of the Indebtedness and deliver any or all the Collateral to its assignee, who then shall have with respect to Collateral so delivered all the rights and powers of Secured Party under this Agreement, and after that Secured Party shall be fully discharged from all liability and responsibility with respect to Collateral so delivered.
2.12 Debtor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Secured Party, its employees, agents, shareholders, officers, and directors from and against any and all claims, damages, fines, expenses, liabilities or causes of action of whatever kind, including without limitation consultant fees, legal expenses, and actual attorneys’ fees, suffered by any of them as a direct or indirect result of any actual or asserted violation of any law, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, or of any remediation relating to any property required by any law, including without limitation Environmental Laws.

3.1 Debtor agrees to collect and enforce payment of all Collateral until Secured Party shall direct Debtor to the contrary. Immediately upon notice to Debtor by Secured Party and at all times after that, Debtor agrees to fully and promptly cooperate and assist Secured Party in the collection and enforcement of all Collateral and to hold in trust for Secured Party all payments received in connection with Collateral and from the sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral, all rights by way of suretyship, guaranty or indemnity and all rights in the nature of a lien or security interest which Debtor now or later has regarding Collateral. Immediately upon and after such notice, Debtor agrees to (a) endorse to Secured Party and immediately deliver to Secured Party all payments received on Collateral or from the sale, lease or other disposition of any Collateral or arising from any other rights or interests of Debtor in the Collateral, in the form received by Debtor without commingling with any other funds, and (b) immediately deliver to Secured Party all property in Debtor’s possession or later coming into Debtor’s possession through enforcement of Debtor’s rights or interests in the Collateral.

Secured Party shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of Collateral or the proceeds of it, nor as to the preservation of any related rights, beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in the possession of Secured Party. Debtor agrees to take all steps necessary to preserve rights against prior parties with respect to the Collateral.

At any sale pursuant to this Section 4.2, whether under the power of sale, by virtue of judicial proceedings or otherwise, it shall not be necessary for Secured Party or a public officer under order of a court to have present physical or constructive possession of Collateral to be sold. The recitals contained in any conveyances and receipts made and given by Secured Party or the public officer to any purchase at any sale made pursuant to this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters stated (including, without limitation, as to the amounts of the principal of and interest on the Indebtedness, the accrual and nonpayment of it and advertisement and conduct of the sale); and all prerequisites to the sale shall be presumed to have been satisfied and performed.

Nothing in this Agreement shall reduce or release in any way any rights or security interests of Secured Party contained in any existing agreement between Debtor and Secured Party.
4.6 No waiver of default or consent to any act by Debtor shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Secured Party.

5.5 Secured Party has the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations or any interest in, any or all of the Indebtedness and any related obligations, including without limitation this Agreement.

Debtor unconditionally and irrevocably waives each and
- 8 -
every defense and setoff of any nature which, under principles of guaranty or otherwise, would operate to impair or diminish in any way the obligation of Debtor under this Agreement and acknowledges that such waiver is by this reference incorporated into each security agreement, collateral assignment, pledge and/or other document from Debtor now or later securing the Indebtedness, and acknowledges that as of the date of this Agreement no such defense or setoff exists.

5.9 In the event that applicable law shall obligate Secured Party to give prior notice to Debtor of any action to be taken under this Agreement, Debtor agrees that a written notice given to Debtor at least five (5) days before the date of the act shall be reasonable notice of the act and, specifically, reasonable notification of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale, lease, or other disposition is to be made, unless a shorter notice period is reasonable under the circumstances.

In the event of continuation or reinstatement of this Agreement, Debtor agrees upon demand by Secured Party to execute and deliver to Secured Party those documents which Secured Party determines are appropriate to further evidence (in the public records or otherwise) this continuation or reinstatement, although the failure of Debtor to do so shall not affect in any way the reinstatement or continuation.
5.11 This Agreement and all the rights and remedies of Secured Party under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Secured Party’s successors and assigns and to any other holder who derives from Secured Party title to or an interest in the Indebtedness or any portion of it, and shall bind Debtor and the heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns of Debtor.
