Item
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On
November 14, 2008, we, along with our subsidiary Xeni Financial Services, Corp.
(“XFS”), entered into a Loan and Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Loan
Agreement”) with Debt Opportunity Fund LLLP (“DOF”), pursuant to which DOF will
lend the Company up to $10,300,000, subject to a deduction for an original
issue
discount of 2%. The proceeds from the loan from DOF will be used by us primarily
to purchase medicinal preparations prescription workers’ compensation claims
from a prospective new client, pursuant to a claims assignment agreement.
The claims assignment agreement is currently being negotiated by us and the
prospective new client and there can be no assurance that such negotiations
will result in a definitive agreement. Until such time as the claims assignment
agreement and documents related to the claims assignment agreement are executed,
and certain other conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement are satisfied,
other than $300,000 previously disbursed to MDwerks for working capital
purposes, the proceeds of the loan from DOF will be held in an escrow account.
In the event the conditions to the disbursement of the funds in the escrow
account are not satisfied on or before December 8, 2008, all proceeds in the
escrow account will be returned to DOF.
Pursuant
to the Loan Agreement, we issued a Senior Secured Promissory Note, dated
November 14, 2008, to DOF in the original principal amount of $10,300,000 (the
“DOF Note”). The DOF Note bears interest at the rate of 13% per annum and is
payable monthly, in arrears on the first day of each month, commencing on
December 1, 2008. Interest will not begin to accrue on amounts held in the
escrow account described above, until such time as those amounts are disbursed
to us. Principal payments in the monthly amount of $150,000 commence on June
1,
2009 and, subject to events of default specified in the Loan Agreement, the
entire amount of principal and accrued but unpaid interest due under the note
becomes due and payable on November 14, 2010. To the extent the balance of
the
loan is not disbursed to us on or before December 8, 2008, DOF will surrender
the DOF Note to us for cancellation and we and XFS will reissue a new note
in
the principal amount actually received by us.
In
connection with the Loan Agreement and the financing provided under the Loan
Agreement, we, and each of our subsidiaries and DOF entered into security
agreements, dated November 14, 2008, pursuant to which we and our subsidiaries
granted a security interest to DOF in substantially all of our assets. Each
of
our subsidiaries also entered into a guaranty agreement to guaranty all
obligations under the Loan Agreement and documents entered into in connection
with the Loan Agreement.
As
partial consideration for the loan provided by DOF we issued to DOF a ten-year
Series J Warrant to purchase 9,339,816 shares of our common stock at a price
of
$1.00 per share (the “Series J Warrant”). In the event the balance of the loan
is not disbursed to us on or before December 8, 2008, DOF will surrender the
Series J Warrant to us for cancellation.
In
connection with the issuance of the Series J Warrant, we and DOF entered into
a
registration rights agreement, dated November 14, 2008, pursuant to which,
among
other things, we granted “piggyback” registration rights to DOF for the Series J
Warrant.
The
following summary description of the material agreements and instruments entered
into in connection with the transaction described above is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the copies of such material agreements and instruments
filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Loan
and Securities Purchase Agreement
The
Loan
Agreement provides for the loan to us by DOF of up to $10,300,000, subject
to a
deduction for an original issuance discount of 2%. The Loan Agreement provides
that funded amounts under the Loan Agreement shall be funded into an escrow
account with DOF’s counsel serving as Escrow Agent. The release of the funded
amounts from the escrow account are subject to various conditions, including
the
entry into a definitive claims purchase agreement, controlled account agreement
and related documents with the prospective new client; the compliance by us
and
XFS with the covenants contained in the Loan Agreement; the representations
and
warranties contained in the Loan Agreement being true and correct; no change
occurs with respect to us or XFS that results in a Material Adverse Effect
(as
defined in the Loan Agreement).
The
Loan
Agreement contains certain restrictions on our ability to: (i) declare
dividends; (ii) reclassify, combine or reverse split our common stock; (iii)
incur liens; (iii) incur certain types of indebtedness; (iv) liquidate or sell
a
substantial portion of our assets; (v) enter into transactions that would result
in a Change of Control (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (vi) amend our
charter documents in a way that adversely affects the rights of DOF; (vii)
except through XFS, make loans to, or advances or guarantee the obligations
of,
third parties; (viii) make intercompany transfers; (ix) engage in transactions
with officers, directors, employees or affiliates; (x) divert business to other
business entities; (xi) make investments in securities or evidences of
indebtedness (excluding of loans made by XFS) in excess of $250,000 in a
calendar year; and (xii) file registration statements, until the earlier of:
(x)
60 Trading Days following the date that a registration statement or registration
statements registering all the shares of Common stock for which the Series
J
Warrant is exercisable is declared effective by the Commission; and (y) the date
the shares of Common stock for which the Series J Warrant is exercisable are
saleable by DOF under Rule 144 under the Securities Act without limitation
as to
volume or manner of sale.
Events
of
default under the Loan Agreement include: (i) default in the payment of
dividends on or the failure to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock when due;
(ii) failure to perform the covenants contained in the Securities Purchase
Agreement or the related transaction documents; (iii) suspension from listing
on
the OTC Bulletin Board or other exchange for 10 consecutive trading days; (iv)
the failure to timely deliver shares of common stock upon conversion of the
Series B Preferred Stock or exercise of the Series H Warrant ; (v) default
in
the payment of indebtedness in excess of $250,000; (vi) a judgment entered
against us in excess of $250,000 that continues undischarged or unstayed for
thirty-five (35) days after entry thereof; and (vii) insolvency, bankruptcy
and
similar circumstances.
The
Loan
Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and
indemnification provisions for transactions of the type entered into between
the
Company and DOF.
DOF
Note
The
DOF
Note bears interest at the rate of 13% per annum and is payable monthly, in
arrears on the first day of each month, commencing on December 1, 2008. Interest
will not begin to accrue on amounts held in the escrow account described above,
until such time as those amounts are disbursed to us. Principal payments in
the
monthly amount of $150,000 commence on June 1, 2009 and, subject to events
of
default specified in the Loan Agreement, the entire amount of principal and
accrued but unpaid interest due under the note becomes due and payable on
November 14, 2010. In the event any payment of principal or interest or both
remains unpaid under the DOF Note for a period of ten days or more after the
due
date thereof, a one-time late charge equivalent to five percent (5%) of each
unpaid amount will be charged against us and XFS. Furthermore, in the case
of an
Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), the interest rate will
be
adjusted to 18% per annum. The DOF Note may be prepaid at anytime, in whole
or
in part without any penalty or premium.
Series
J Warrant
On
November 14, 2008, we issued to DOF the Series J Warrant. The Series J Warrant
is exercisable for an aggregate of 9,339,816 shares or our common stock at
a
price of $1.00 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.
The Series J Warrant may be exercised on a cashless basis to the extent that
the
resale of shares of common stock underlying the Series J Warrant is not covered
by an effective registration statement. The exercise price will be subject
to
adjustment in the event of subdivision or combination of shares of our common
stock and similar transactions, distributions of assets, issuances of shares
of
common stock with a purchase price below the exercise price of the Series H
Warrant, issuances of any rights, warrants or options to purchase shares of
our
common stock with an exercise price below the exercise price of the Series
J
Warrant, issuances of convertible securities with a conversion price below
the
exercise price of the Series J Warrant.
Borrower
Security Agreements
Pursuant
to the terms of the Loan Agreement, we and XFS each entered into a Security
Agreement, dated November 14, 2008 with DOF (collectively, the “Borrower
Security Agreements”). The Borrower Security Agreements secure our and XFS’
obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement, the DOF Note and the
Transaction Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement). The Borrower Security
Agreements provide for a lien in favor of DOF on all of our assets and all
of
the assets of XFS, except for accounts resulting from the purchase of
Prescription Claims (as defined in the Loan Agreement) from clients other than
the prospective new client that is the subject of the loan from
DOF.
Guaranty
Agreements
Pursuant
to the terms of the Loan Agreement, each of our subsidiaries entered into a
Guaranty Agreement, dated November 14, 2008, with DOF (collectively, the
“Guaranty Agreements”). The Guaranty Agreements provide for unconditional
guaranties of our and XFS’ obligations in connection with the Loan Agreement and
the Transaction Documents.
Guarantor
Security Agreements
Pursuant
to the terms of the Loan Agreement, each of our subsidiaries entered into a
Guarantor Security Agreement, dated November 14, 2008, with DOF (collectively,
the “Guarantor Security Agreements”). The Guarantor Security Agreements provide
for liens in favor of DOF on all of the assets of each of our subsidiaries
(other than XFS, which entered into one of the borrower Security Agreements
described above).
Registration
Rights Agreement
Pursuant
to the terms of the Loan Agreement, we entered into a Registration Rights
Agreement, dated November 14, 2008, with DOF (the “Registration Rights
Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement requires us, subject to
certain exceptions, to include shares of common stock that may be purchased
upon
exercise of the Series J Warrant in any registration statement that we file
until such time as such shares (i) have been sold pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”) or an
effective registration statement or (ii) are eligible for immediate resale
under
Rule 144.
Item
3.02 Unregistered sales of Equity Securities.
Item
1.01
above is incorporated into this Item 3.02 by reference.
DOF
is an
“accredited investor,” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. None of the DOF Note, the Series J
Warrant, or the shares of our common stock underlying the Series J Warrant
were
registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state and
were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded
by
Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act and
corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempts transactions
by
an issuer not involving any public offering.
We
made
this determination based on the representations of DOF, which included, in
pertinent part, that DOF is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule
501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and that DOF was
acquiring the securities it was acquiring for investment purposes for its own
account and not as nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution, and that DOF understood such securities may not be sold or
otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an
applicable exemption therefrom. Thus,
the
DOF Note, the Series J Warrant, and shares of common stock underlying the Series
J Warrant may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration
or
an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates
evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.

however,
that
the Borrowers may use Restricted Funds to (i) purchase additional Prescription

Borrowers shall conduct a meeting in person or via teleconference at a mutually
agreeable time, date and location to review the status of, and adequacy of
amounts in, the Claims Purchase Account and to discuss the potential release
of
funds from the Claims Purchase Account to an operating account of XFSC (any
such
released funds shall be referred to as “Permitted Withdrawals”); provided,
however,
such
release shall be the sole discretion of the Lender.
(c) Notice
of Proposed Purchase.
At
least three (3) Trading Days prior to the purchase of any Prescription Claims
under the Claims Purchase Agreement (a “Proposed Purchase”), Borrowers shall
submit a written request to the Lender identifying the specific Prescription
Claims included in the Proposed Purchase and the total amount and date of the
Proposed Purchase. Provided that the conditions in Section 1.5(d) are met,
Borrowers shall be entitled to use the Restricted Funds for the Proposed
Purchase to the extent that the sum of the Restricted Funds and Acceptable
Receivables exceeds the aggregate principal amount of all Advances (the
“Borrowing Base”). As used in this Agreement, “Acceptable Receivables” means the
purchased Prescription Claims for which XFSC has not received payment, but
excluding the following Prescription Claims: (i) any Prescription Claim or
portion thereof that remains unpaid 180 days or more after the Prescription
Claim was submitted for payment; (ii) any Prescription Claim or portion thereof
with respect to which any Borrower has received notice of a claim or dispute
over payment; (iii) any Prescription Claim submitted for payment to an entity
that is insolvent, the subject of bankruptcy proceedings or out of business;
(iv) any Prescription Claim not subject to a duly perfected, first-priority
security interest in the Lender’s favor or which is subject to any Lien (as
defined in Section 8.3) in favor of any Person (as defined in Section 3.13)
other than the Lender; (v) Prescription Claims owed by an obligor, regardless
of
whether otherwise eligible, if 25% or more of the total amount of Prescription
Claims due from such obligor is ineligible under sub-clauses (i) or (ii) above;
(vi) Prescription Claims, or portions thereof, otherwise deemed ineligible
by
the Lender in its sole discretion.
(d) Conditions
Precedent to Purchases.
The
Borrowers’ ability to use Restricted Funds for a Proposed Purchase shall be
subject to the further conditions precedent that:
(i) An
Event
of Default has not occurred and is not continuing or an Event of Default would
not result from the Proposed Purchase;
(ii) No
default has occurred and is continuing by either XXX or XFSC with respect to
the
Claims Purchase Agreement;
(iii) The
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or contained in
the
other Transaction Documents are true and correct as of the date of the Proposed
Purchase, except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated
to
relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty
shall be true and correct on and as of such earlier date;
(iv) The
Prescription Claims set forth in the Proposed Purchase are to be purchased
under
the terms of and in accordance with the Claims Purchase Agreement;
(v) The
Borrowers shall have provided to the Lender a certificate, in form and detail
reasonably satisfactory to the Lender, setting forth the calculation of the
available Borrowing Base, executed on behalf of the Borrowers by officers of
the
Borrowers (the “Borrowing Base Certificate”), and the Lender shall be satisfied
that the Proposed Purchase does not exceed the available Borrowing Base;
and
(vi) Since
the
date of the most recently filed financial statements of the Borrowers, there
has
been no change in either of the Borrowers’ business, properties or condition
(financial or otherwise) that has had or would have a Material Adverse Effect
(as defined in Section 3.1).
Each
request for a Proposed Purchase by the Borrowers shall constitute a
representation and warranty by each Borrower that the conditions contained
in
this Section 1.5(d) have been satisfied.

REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES OF THE BORROWERS
Each
of
the Borrowers hereby represents and warrants to the Lender as of the date of
this Agreement as follows:
3.1 Organization
and Qualification.
Each
Borrower is a corporation duly organized and validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, and
has
all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now
conducted. Each Borrower is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do
business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership
of
property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification
necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in
good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. As used in this
Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the
business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, or condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby or by the agreements and
instruments to be entered into in connection herewith, or on the authority
or
ability of a Borrower to perform its obligations in all material respects under
the Transaction Documents.
3.2 Subsidiaries.
MDwerks
has no other subsidiaries other than the Subsidiaries, and XFSC has no
subsidiaries. The Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital
stock
of each Subsidiary and XFSC, free and clear of any and all Liens, except
Permitted Liens (as defined in Section 8.3), and all the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary and XFSC are validly issued and
are
fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights. Each
Subsidiary is a corporation duly organized and validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, and
has
all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now
conducted. Each Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do
business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership
of
property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification
necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in
good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.3 Compliance.
(a) Neither
any Borrower nor any Subsidiary (i) is in default under or in violation of
(and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse
of time or both, would result in a default by any Borrower or any Subsidiary
under), nor has any Borrower or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that
it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or
credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party
or
by which it or any of its properties is bound, except such that, individually
or
in the aggregate, such default(s) and violations(s) would not have a Material
Adverse Effect, (ii) is in violation of any order of any court, arbitrator
or governmental body, or (iii) is in violation of any of the provisions of
its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational

laws, rules, regulations and ordinances (including, without limitation, rules
and regulations of each governmental and regulatory agency, self regulatory
organization and Trading Market applicable to any Borrower or any Subsidiary),
except such that, individually or in the aggregate, the noncompliance therewith
would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Borrower has all franchises,
permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory authorizations
and approvals necessary for the conduct of its business as now being conducted
by it unless the failure to possess such franchises, permits, licenses, consents
and other governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals, individually
or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and each Borrower
has not received any written notice of proceedings relating to the revocation
or
modification of any of the foregoing. For purposes of this Agreement, “Trading
Market” means the following markets or exchanges on which the Common Stock is
listed or quoted for trading on the date in question: the NYSE Arca, OTC

accordance with the terms hereof, shall be free from all taxes, Liens and
charges with respect to the issuance thereof. As of the Closing Date, the
Company has authorized and has reserved free of preemptive rights and other
similar contractual rights of stockholders, a number of its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to effect the exercise of the Warrant
(the “Warrant Shares”).
(b) The
Warrant Shares, when issued and paid for upon exercise of the Warrant will
be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, Liens
and
charges with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders being entitled
to

(c) Assuming
the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties made by the Lender
and set forth in Article IV hereof (and assuming no change in applicable law

Enforcement; Validity.

(the
“Registration Rights Agreement”), the Security Agreement, the Note, the Warrant,
and each of the other agreements or instruments entered into by the parties
hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
(collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and to issue the Note and the
Warrant (including without limitation, the Warrant Shares) in accordance with
the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of the Transaction
Documents by each Borrower and the consummation by each Borrower of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation,
the
issuance of the Note and the Warrant, have been duly authorized by its Board,
and no further consent or authorization is required by either of the Borrowers,
their respective Boards or stockholders. This Agreement, the Note and the other
Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by each Borrower,
as
applicable, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each

terms, except (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and
other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights and

insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by
applicable law or by principles of public policy thereunder.
3.7 Dilutive
Effect.
Each
Borrower understands and acknowledges that the Company’s obligation to issue the
Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant is absolute and unconditional
regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership
interests of other stockholders of the Company.
3.8 No
Conflicts.
The
execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by each
Borrower and the consummation by each Borrower of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the reservation for issuance
of the Warrant Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of any articles
or certificate of incorporation, any certificate of designations, preferences
and rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock or bylaws of any
Borrower or any Subsidiary or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default
(or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default)
under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration
or
cancellation of, any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which any
Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party (except where such defaults, conflicts,
rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation have been waived
or postponed until the fulfillment of the Borrowers’ obligations under the
Transaction Documents), or (iii) result in a violation of any federal,
state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree
(including federal and state securities laws and regulations and rules and
regulations of any governmental or any regulatory agency, self-regulatory
organization, or Trading Market applicable to the Company) or by which any
property or asset of the Borrowers are bound or affected, except in the case
of
clauses (ii) and (iii), for such breaches, violations or defaults as would
not
be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Consents.

amended (the “Exchange Act”) to disclose the existence of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) application(s) to each Trading Market
for the listing of the Warrant Shares for trading thereon in the time and manner
required thereby, and (iii) the filing of Form D with the Commission and
such filings as are required to be made under applicable state securities laws,
neither Borrower is required to obtain any consent, authorization or order
of,
or make any filing or registration with, any court, governmental or any
regulatory agency, self-regulatory organization or any other Person in order
for
it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated
by the Transaction Documents, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof
or thereof. Each Borrower is unaware of any facts or circumstances relating
to
any Borrower or any Subsidiary that might prevent any Borrower from obtaining
or
effecting any of the foregoing.
3.10 Registration
and Approval of Sale of Securities.
Based
in material part upon the representations and warranties herein (and in the
other Transaction Documents) of the Lender, the Company has complied and will
comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection
with
the offer, issuance and sale of the Warrant hereunder (except in the case of
state securities laws, for any failures to comply that, individually or in
the
aggregate, will not have a Material Adverse Effect). Assuming the accuracy
of
the representations and warranties in Article IV hereof (and assuming no change
in applicable law and no unlawful distribution of the Warrant by the Lender
or
other Persons), no registration under the Securities Act is required for the
offer and sale of the Warrant by the Company to the Lender as is contemplated
hereby. Neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf, directly or
indirectly, has or will sell, offer to sell or solicit offers to buy the Warrant
or similar securities to, or solicit offers with respect thereto from, or enter
into any negotiations relating thereto with, any Person, or has taken or will
take any action so as to either (a) bring the issuance and sale of the
Warrant under the registration provisions of the Securities Act or applicable
state securities laws, or (b) trigger shareholder approval provisions under
the rules or regulations of any Trading Market. Neither the Company nor any
of
its affiliates that it controls, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf,
has: (x) engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising
(within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in connection
with
the offer or sale of any of the Warrant; or (y) directly or indirectly made
any
offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security
under circumstances that would cause the offering of the Warrant pursuant to
this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes
of the Securities Act in a manner that would prevent the Company from selling
the Warrant pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities
Act, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates that it controls or Persons
acting on its or their behalf engage in any form of general solicitation or
take
any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Warrant to be
integrated with other offerings.
3.11 Placement
Agent’s Fees.
No
brokerage or finder’s fee or commission are or will be payable to any Person
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon
arrangements made by any Borrower or any Subsidiary. The Borrowers agree that
they shall be responsible for the payment of any placement agent’s fees,
financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for Persons engaged
by the Lender or any of its affiliates) relating to or arising out of the
transactions contemplated hereby. The Borrowers shall pay, and hold the Lender
harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection
with any claim for any such fees or commissions.
3.12 Litigation.
Except
as disclosed in Schedule 3.12 or as disclosed in the SEC Documents, there is
no
action, suit, written notice of violation, or written notice of any proceeding
pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened against or affecting
the Common Stock or any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of their respective
executive officers, directors or properties before or by any court, arbitrator,
governmental or administrative agency, regulatory authority (federal, state,
county, local or foreign), self regulatory authority or Trading Market
(collectively, an “Action”) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the
legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or
the
Warrant or (ii) would, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the Borrowers’
knowledge, neither the Borrowers nor any Subsidiary, nor any director or
executive officer thereof (in his/her capacity as such), is or, within the
last
five years, has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation
of
or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of
fiduciary duty. To the knowledge of the Company, there has not been, and there
is not pending or threatened in writing, any investigation by the United States
Securities and Commission (the “Commission” or “SEC”) involving the Company or
any current director or executive officer of the Company. The Commission has
not
issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any
registration statement filed by the Company under the Exchange Act or the
Securities Act. There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration,
alternate dispute resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending or, to
the
knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened in writing against or involving either
of
the Borrowers or any of their respective properties or assets, which
individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding orders, judgments,
injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator or governmental or
regulatory body against either of the Borrowers or any executive officers or
directors of the Borrowers in their capacities as such, which individually
or in
the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
3.13 Indebtedness
and Other Contracts.
Except
as disclosed in the SEC Documents, neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary
(a) has any outstanding Indebtedness (as defined below in this Section
3.13), (b) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument, the
violation of which, or default under, by any other party to such contract,
agreement or instrument would result in a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is
in violation of any term of or in default under any contract, agreement or
instrument relating to any Indebtedness, except where such violations and
defaults would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material
Adverse Effect, or (d) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument
relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of
the
Borrowers’ officers, has or is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For
purposes of this Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness” of any Person means, without
duplication (i) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (ii) all
obligations issued, undertaken or assumed as the deferred purchase price of
property or services (other than trade payables entered into in the ordinary
course of business), (iii) all reimbursement or payment obligations with
respect to letters of credit, surety bonds and other similar instruments,
(iv) all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar
instruments, including obligations so evidenced incurred in connection with
the
acquisition of property, assets or businesses, (v) all indebtedness created
or arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, or
incurred as financing, in either case with respect to any property or assets
acquired with the proceeds of such indebtedness (even though the rights and
remedies of the seller or bank under such agreement in the event of default
are
limited to repossession or sale of such property), (vi) all monetary
obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement which, in connection with
generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied for the periods
covered thereby, is classified as a capital lease, (vii) all indebtedness

to
be secured by) any mortgage, Lien, pledge, change, security interest or other
encumbrance upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract
rights) owned by any Person, even though the Person which owns such assets
or
property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such indebtedness,
and (viii) all Contingent Obligations in respect of indebtedness or
obligations of others of the kinds referred to in clauses (i) through
(vii) above; (y) “Contingent Obligation” means, as to any Person, any
direct or indirect liability, contingent or otherwise, of that Person with
respect to any indebtedness, lease, dividend or other obligation of another
Person if the primary purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability,
or the primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee of such
liability that such liability will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements
relating thereto will be complied with, or that the holders of such liability
will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto;
and
(z) “Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a
partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated
organization and a government or any department or agency

filed any such SEC Documents prior to the expiration of any such extension.
As

they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Borrowers make
no
representation as to the information included in any SEC Documents prepared
by
third parties and included therein, and the Borrowers make no representation
as
to the accuracy of information contained in third party studies and reports
cited in the SEC Documents. Each registration statement and any amendment
thereto filed by the Company during the two years preceding the date hereof
pursuant to the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, as
of
the date such statement or amendment became effective, complied as to form
in
all material respects with the Securities Act and did not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to
be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein not
misleading; provided, however, that the Borrowers make no representation as
to
the information included in any SEC Documents prepared by third parties and
included therein, and the Borrowers make no representation as to the accuracy
of
information contained in third party studies and reports cited in the SEC
Documents; and each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act, as of its issue date and as of the closing of any sale of
securities pursuant thereto did not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however,
that the Borrowers make no representation as to the information included in
any
SEC Documents prepared by third parties and included therein and the Borrowers
make no representation as to the accuracy of information contained in third
party studies and reports cited in the SEC Documents. The financial statements
of the Company included in the SEC Documents comply in all material respects
with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the
Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States
generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during
the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such
financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial
statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP and remain subject
to
year end adjustments, and fairly present in all material respects the financial
position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the
dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
then
ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments.

3.16 Solvency.
No
Borrower has taken, nor does it have any intention to take, any steps to seek
protection pursuant to any bankruptcy or similar law. No Borrower has any actual
knowledge nor has it received any written notice that its creditors intend
to
initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any
fact
that, as of the date hereof, would reasonably lead a creditor to do so. After
giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing,
no Borrower will be Insolvent (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this
Agreement, “Insolvent” means (i) a Borrower is unable to pay its debts and
liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and
liabilities become absolute and matured, (ii) a Borrower intends to incur
or believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond its ability to pay
as
such debts mature or (iii) a Borrower has unreasonably small capital with
which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now
conducted and is proposed to be conducted.
3.17 Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements.
There
is no transaction, arrangement, or other relationship between a Borrower and
an
unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is required to be
disclosed by the Company in its Exchange Act filings and is not so disclosed
or
that if made or not made would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
3.18 Foreign
Corrupt Practices.
Neither
any Borrower, nor any Subsidiary, nor any of their respective directors,
officers, agents, employees or other Persons acting on behalf of such
subsidiaries has, in the course of their respective actions for or on behalf
of
a Borrower or any of its subsidiaries (a) used any corporate funds for any
unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating
to political activity, (b) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to
any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds,
(c) violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended or (d) made any unlawful bribe,
rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any
foreign or domestic government official or employee.
3.19 Transactions
With Affiliates.
Except
as set forth in the SEC Documents, none of the officers, directors or employees
of either Borrower is presently a party to any transaction with any Borrower
or
any Subsidiary (other than for ordinary course services as employees, officers
or directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing
for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or
personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any
such officer, director or employee or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any
corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any such officer,
director, or employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director,
trustee or partner.
3.20 Insurance.
Each
Borrower and each Subsidiary are insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management
of a Borrower believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which
each Borrower and each Subsidiary are engaged. Neither any Borrower nor any
Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for and
neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will
not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage
expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary
to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.
3.21 Employee
Relations.
Neither
any Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to any collective bargaining
agreement or employs any member of a union. No Executive Officer of a Borrower
(as defined in Rule 501(f) of the Securities Act) has notified such Borrower
that such officer intends to leave the Borrower or otherwise terminate such
officer’s employment with the Borrower. No Executive Officer of a Borrower, to
the knowledge of the Borrowers, is, or is now, in violation of any material
term
of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary
information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or
agreement or any restrictive covenant, and, to the actual knowledge of the
Borrowers, the continued employment of each such executive officer does not
subject any Borrower or any Subsidiary to any liability with respect to any
of
the foregoing matters. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary are in compliance
with
all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting employment
and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and
hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.
3.22 Title.
Except
as set forth in the SEC Documents, each Borrower and each Subsidiary have good
and marketable title to all personal property owned by them which is material
to
their respective business, in each case free and clear of all Liens (except
for
Permitted Liens). Any real property and facilities held under lease by any
Borrower or any Subsidiary are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere
with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by
any
Borrower or any Subsidiary.
3.23 Intellectual
Property Rights.
The
Borrowers and the Subsidiaries own or possess the rights to use all patents,
trademarks, domain names (whether or not registered) and any patentable
improvements or copyrightable derivative works thereof, websites and
intellectual property rights relating thereto, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, licenses and authorizations which are necessary for the conduct
of
its business as now conducted (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”)
without any conflict with the rights of others, except any failures as,
individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received a written
notice that the Intellectual Property Rights used by any Borrower or any
Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of any Person. To the knowledge
of the Borrowers, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and
there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual
Property Rights. The Borrowers and the Subsidiaries have taken reasonable
measures to protect the value of the Intellectual Property Rights.
3.24 Environmental
Laws.
Each
Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries (a) are in compliance with any and
all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), (b) have received all
permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable
Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses and (c) are in
compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval
where, in each of the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c), the failure to so
comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate,
a
Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state,
local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or
the
environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water,
groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation,
laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of
chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes
(collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise
relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage,
disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all
authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions,
judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or
regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved
thereunder.
3.25 Tax
Matters.
Each
Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries (a) have made or filed all federal
and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required
by
any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (b) have paid all taxes and other
governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or
determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those
being contested in good faith and (c) have set aside on its books
reasonably adequate provision for the payment of all taxes for periods
subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply,
except where such failure would not have a Material Adverse Effect. There are
no
unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority
of
any jurisdiction, and the officers of each Borrower know of no basis for any
such claim.
3.26 Sarbanes-Oxley
Act;
Internal Accounting and Disclosure Controls.
The
Company is in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of
the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof and
applicable to it, and any and all rules and regulations promulgated by the
SEC
thereunder that are effective and applicable to it as of the date hereof. The
Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient, in the
judgment of the Company’s board of directors, to provide reasonable assurance
that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general
or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to
maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate actions are taken with respect to any
differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures
(as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and
designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material
information relating to the Company, including its Subsidiaries and XFSC, is
made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities,
particularly during the period in which the Company’s most recently filed
periodic report under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, is being prepared.
The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the
Company’s controls and procedures as of the date prior to the filing date of the
most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the
“Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic
report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about
the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have
been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is
defined in Item 307(c) of Regulation S-B under the Exchange Act) or, to the
Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the
Company’s internal controls. The Company maintains and will continue to maintain
a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance
with
United States GAAP and the applicable requirements of the Exchange
Act.
3.27 Investment
Company Status.
The
Company is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Warrant will
not be, an “investment company,” an “affiliated person” of, “promoter” for or
“principal underwriter” for, or an entity “controlled” by an “investment
company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.
3.28 Material
Contracts.
Each
contract of a Borrower that involves expenditures or receipts in excess of
$250,000 (each, a “Material Contract”) is in full force and effect and is valid
and enforceable in accordance with its terms. Each Borrower is and has been
in
full compliance with all applicable terms and requirements of each its Material
Contract and no event has occurred or circumstance exists that (with or without
notice or lapse of time) may contravene, conflict with or result in a violation
or breach of, or give a Borrower or any other entity the right to declare a
default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity or
performance of, or to cancel, terminate or modify any Material Contract. Each
Borrower has not given or received from any other Person any notice or other
communication (whether oral or written) regarding any actual, alleged, possible
or potential violation or breach of, or default under, any Material
Contract.
3.29 [Intentionally
Omitted].
3.30 No
Disagreements with Accountants.
There
are no disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated
by the Borrowers to arise, between the Borrowers and the accountants formerly
or
presently employed by the Borrowers.
3.31 Senior
Debt.
Except
as disclosed in the SEC Documents, there is no Indebtedness of a Borrower that
is senior to or ranks
pari
passu
with the
Note in right of payment, whether with respect of payment of redemptions,
interest, damages or upon liquidation or dissolution.
3.32 Manipulation
of Price.
Each
Borrower has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has, taken,
directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result or that could
reasonably be expected to cause or result, in the stabilization or manipulation
of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale
of
the Warrant.
3.33 Listing
and Maintenance Requirements.
The
Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice
from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or
quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing
or
maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is in compliance
with all such maintenance requirements.
3.34 Application
of Takeover Protections.
Each
Borrower and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any,
in
order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business
combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement)
or other similar anti-takeover provision under the respective Certificates
of
Incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws of its state of
incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Lender as a result
of
the Lender and the Borrowers fulfilling their obligations or exercising their
rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation the
Company’s issuance of the Warrant and the Lender’s ownership of the
Warrant.

obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by the Lender
of

all
necessary partnership or similar action on the part of the Lender. Each
Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by the
Lender, and when delivered by the Lender in accordance with the terms hereof,
will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Lender,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited

general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to
the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable

conferred by this Section 9.2(a) shall not be exclusive of any other remedy
provided by any Transaction Document or now or hereafter available at law,
in
equity, by statute or otherwise.
(b) The
Lender, by written notice or notices to the Borrowers, may in its own discretion
waive an Event of Default and its consequences and rescind or annul such
declaration; provided that, no such waiver shall extend to or affect any
subsequent Event of Default or impair any right resulting
therefrom.
(c) In
case
any one or more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Lender
may
proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity
or
other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any
agreement contained herein or in any Transaction Document or for an injunction
against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law. In case of a default
in the payment of any amount due under the Note or other Transaction Document,
the Borrowers will pay to the Lender such further amount as shall be sufficient
to cover the cost and the expenses of collection, including, without limitation,
actual attorney’s fees, expenses and disbursements. No course of dealing and no
delay on the part of a Lender in exercising any rights shall operate as a waiver
thereof or otherwise prejudice such Lender’s rights. No right conferred hereby
or by any Transaction Document upon the Lender shall be exclusive of any other
right referred to herein or therein or now available at law in equity, by
statute or otherwise.
ARTICLE

CERTIFICATE
LEGENDS
10.1 Legend.
The
Warrant and the certificates representing Warrant Shares shall be stamped or
otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in
addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky”
laws):
NEITHER
THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR
THE
SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED
(I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE
SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL, IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION
IS
NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR
RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY
BE
PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING
ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.
The
Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any
subsequent transfer agent, to issue certificates, registered in the name of
each
Lender or its respective nominee(s), for the Warrant Shares in such amounts
as
specified from time to time by the Lender to the Company upon exercise of the
Warrant in the form of Exhibit
I
attached
hereto (the “Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions”).
Prior
to registration of the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act, all such
certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in this
Section 10.1. Certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares shall not contain
any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 10.1 hereof),
(i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement)
covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act,
or
(ii) following any sale of such Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or
(iii) if such Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 by the
Lender without limitation as to volume or manner of sale, or (iv) if such
legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff
of
the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion
to
the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the effective date of a registration
statement covering such Warrant Shares, if required by the Company’s transfer
agent, to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion
of
the Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration
statement to cover the resale of the Warrant Shares, such Warrant Shares, as
the
case may be, shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that
following the effective date of the registration statement covering Warrant
Shares or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this
Section 10.1, it will, no later than five (5) Trading Days following the
delivery by the Lender to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a
certificate representing Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued with a
restrictive legend (such date, the “Delivery Date”), deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Lender a certificate representing such securities that is
free
from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation
on
its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that
enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. Whenever a
certificate representing the Warrant Shares is required to be issued to the
Lender without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates
representing the Warrant Shares, provided the Company’s transfer agent is
participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities
Transfer program, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause
its
transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares to the Lender
by
crediting the account of such Lender’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit
Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the extent not inconsistent with
any provisions of this Agreement).
10.2 Liquidated
Damages.
The
Borrowers understand that a delay in the delivery of unlegended certificates
for
the Warrant Shares as set forth in Section 10.1 hereof beyond the Delivery
Date could result in economic loss to the Lender. If the Company fails to
deliver to a Lender such shares via DWAC or a certificate or certificates
pursuant to this Section hereunder by the Delivery Date, the Borrowers
shall pay to the Lender, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as
a
penalty, for each $500 of Warrant Shares (based on the closing price of the
Common Stock reported by the principal Trading Market on the date such
securities are submitted to the Company’s transfer agent) subject to Section
10.1, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $15 per Trading Day five (5) Trading
Days after such damages have begun to accrue and increasing to $20 per Trading
Day ten (10) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each
Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered.
Nothing herein shall limit the Lender’s right to pursue actual damages for the
Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any securities as
required by the Transaction Documents, and the Lender shall have the right
to
pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive
relief.
10.3 Sales
by the Lender.
The
Lender agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates
representing the Warrant or Warrant Shares as set forth in Section 10.1 is
predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Lender will sell any such
securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities
Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption
therefrom.
ARTICLE
XI
INDEMNIFICATION
11.1 Indemnification
by the Borrowers.
Each
Borrower, jointly and severally, agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
the Lender and shall reimburse the Lender for, from and against each claim,
loss, liability, cost and expense (including without limitation, interest,
penalties, costs of preparation and investigation, and the actual fees,
disbursements and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professional
advisors) (collectively, “Losses”) directly or indirectly relating to, resulting
from or arising out of (a) any untrue representation, misrepresentation, breach
of warranty or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or other obligation
by
or of any Borrower contained in any Transaction Document or in any certificate,
document, or instrument delivered by a Borrower to the Lender pursuant to
Section 5.4 hereof; or (b) any action instituted against the Lender or its
affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an affiliate of the
Lender, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of the Lender’s
representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or
any
agreements or understandings the Lender may have with any such stockholder
or
any violations by the Lender of state or federal securities laws or any conduct
by the Lender which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct
or
malfeasance).
11.2 Indemnification
by the Lender.
Lender
shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries
and
shall reimburse the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries for, from and against each
Loss directly or indirectly relating to, resulting from or arising out of any
untrue representation, misrepresentation, breach of warranty or non-fulfillment
of any covenant, agreement or other obligation by or of the Lender contained
in
any Transaction Document delivered to the Borrowers or any of its subsidiaries
pursuant thereto.
11.3 Procedure.
(a) The
indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party of any claim,
demand, action or proceeding for which indemnification will be sought under
this
Agreement; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification
hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying
party of its obligations under this Article XI except to the extent that the
indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give
notice.
(b) In
case
any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party
in
respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable, good-faith
judgment of the indemnified party a conflict of interest between it and the
indemnifying party exists with respect to such action, proceeding or claim
(in
which case the indemnifying party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees
and expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified party), to assume
the
defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.
If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the
indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense (but not
control) with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense (except that
the indemnifying party shall remain responsible for the reasonable fees and
expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified party in the event in
the
reasonable, good-faith judgment of the indemnified party a conflict of interest
between it and the indemnifying party exists).
(c) In
the
event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will
contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty
(30)
days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person
of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense,
any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after
it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option,
defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any
event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume
and
does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the
indemnified party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or
compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be Losses subject
to
indemnification hereunder.
(d) The
parties shall cooperate fully with each other in connection with any negotiation
or defense of any such action or claim and shall furnish to the other party
all
information reasonably available to such party which relates to such action or
claim. Each party shall keep the other party fully apprised at all times as
to
the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect
thereto.
(e) Notwithstanding
anything in this Article XI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not,
without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any
claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes
any
future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not include, as an
unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to
the
indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim.
The
indemnification obligations to defend the indemnified party required by this
Article XI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during
the
course of investigation or defense, as and when the Loss is incurred, so long
as
the indemnified party shall refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined
by
a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to
indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition
to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party
against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the
indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

I
PAYMENT
OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST; METHOD OF PAYMENT; MATURITY
DATE
1.1 Payment
of Principal.
Commencing on June 1, 2009, the Borrowers shall pay to the Holder monthly
payments of principal in the amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($150,000). All oustanding principal, interest and fees and charges of any
kind
under the Note shall become due and payable on November 14, 2010 (the “Maturity
Date”). Payment of the principal of this Note (and any interest accrued thereon)
shall be made in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds.
1.2 Payment
of Interest.
Interest on the principal under this Note shall accrue at the rate of thirteen
percent (13%) per annum (the “Stated Interest Rate”) commencing on the date that
the Funded Amount, or any portion thereof, is released to the Borrowers under
that certain Escrow Agreement dated November 14, 2008 (the “Escrow Agreement”)
by and among the Borrowers, the Lender and Escrow Agent (as defined in the
Escrow Agreement), except that interest shall begin accruing with respect to
any
amounts advanced to the Borrowers outside the Escrow Agreement upon the
Borrowers’ actual receipt thereof (inclusive of the Cash Payment), and shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30)
day
months and shall be payable monthly in cash on the first (1st) day of each
month, in arrears, commencing December 1, 2008. Interest shall be paid in U.S.
dollars in immediately available funds.
1.3 Payment
on Non-Business Days.
If the
outstanding principal or accrued but unpaid interest under this Note becomes
due
and payable on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday under the laws of the State
of New York, the due date hereof shall be extended to the next succeeding full
business day and interest shall be payable at the rate of thirteen (13%) percent
per annum during such extension. All payments received by the Holder shall
be
applied first to the payment of all accrued interest payable
hereunder.
1.4 Late
Fee.
In the
event any payment of principal or interest or both shall remain unpaid for
a
period of ten (10) days or more after the due date thereof, a one-time late

charged.
1.5 Adjustment

(a) After
an
Event of Default and acceleration of the Maturity Date by the Holder the Stated
Interest Rate shall be adjusted to a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum,
subject to the limitations of applicable law.
(b) Regardless
of any other provision of this Note or other Transaction Document (as defined
in
the Loan Agreement), if for any reason the interest paid should exceed the
maximum lawful interest, the interest paid shall be deemed reduced to, and
shall
be, such maximum lawful interest, and (i) the amount which would be excessive
interest shall be deemed applied to the reduction of the principal balance
of
this Note and not to the payment of interest, and (ii) if the loan evidenced
by
this Note has been or is thereby paid in full, the excess shall be returned
to
the party paying same, such application to the principal balance of this Note
or
the refunding of excess to be a complete settlement and acquittance
thereof.
1.6 Prepayment.
This
Note may be prepaid at any time, without premium or penalty, in whole or in
part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the

Waivers.
Any
forbearance, failure or delay by the Payee in exercising any right, power or
remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, any documents or instruments

thereof.

No
modification or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement or

given.
3.6 Governing
Law.
This
Note and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto, shall be governed,
construed and interpreted according to the laws of the State of New York,

SERIES
J WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
Warrant
No.: W-J-1
Number
of
Shares of Common Stock: 9,339,816
Date
of
Issuance: November 14, 2008 (“ISSUANCE DATE”)
MDWERKS,
INC.,
a
Delaware corporation (the “COMPANY”), hereby certifies that, for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, DEBT OPPORTUNITY FUND, LLLP (the “LENDER”), the registered holder
hereof or its permitted assigns (the “HOLDER”), is entitled, subject to the
terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price
(as
defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common
Stock (including any warrants to purchase Common Stock issued in exchange,
transfer or replacement hereof, the “WARRANT”), at any time or times on or after
the date hereof, but not after 11:59 p.m., New York Time, on the Expiration
Date
(as defined below), Nine Million Three Hundred Thirty Nine Thousand Eight
Hundred Sixteen (9,339,816) fully paid nonassessable shares of Common Stock
(as
defined below) (the “WARRANT SHARES”). Except as otherwise defined herein,
capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section
15 hereof or the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below). This Warrant
is the Warrant to purchase Common Stock issued pursuant to the Loan and
Securities Purchase Agreement dated November 14, 2008 (the “SUBSCRIPTION DATE”),
between the Company, Xeni Financial Services, Corp., a Florida corporation,
and
the Lender (the “SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT”).
1. EXERCISE
OF WARRANT.
(a) Mechanics
of Exercise.
Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the
limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by
the Holder on any day on or after the date hereof, in whole or in part, by
(i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit
A
(the
“EXERCISE NOTICE”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and
(ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable
Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this
Warrant is being exercised (the “AGGREGATE EXERCISE PRICE”) in cash or by wire
transfer of immediately available funds or (B) by notifying the Company
that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined
in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original
Warrant in order to affect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of
the
Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have
the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new
Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
On or before the first (1st) Business Day following the date on which the
Company has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise
Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (the “EXERCISE DELIVERY DOCUMENTS”),
the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of
receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s
transfer agent (the “TRANSFER AGENT”). On or before the third (3rd) Business Day
following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise
Delivery Documents (the “SHARE DELIVERY DATE”), the Company shall
(X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository
Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled
pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with
DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or (Y) if the
Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities
Transfer Program, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as
specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s
share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of
shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such
exercise. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall
be
deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the
Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised,
irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC
account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant
Shares as the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with
any
exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares
represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number
of
Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon
as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after any
exercise and at its own expense, issue, a new Warrant (in accordance with
Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less
the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised.
No
fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall
be
rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay stamp and similar
taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant
Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not be required,
however, to pay any transfer tax or similar charge imposed in connection with
the issuance and delivery of Warrant shares in any name other than that of
the
Holder.
(b) Exercise
Price.
For
purposes of this Warrant, “EXERCISE PRICE” means $1.00 subject to adjustment as
provided herein.
(c) Company’s
Failure to Timely Deliver Securities.
(i) The
Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of this Warrant beyond the Share Delivery Date could result in
economic loss to the Holder. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder
such
shares via DWAC or a certificate or certificates pursuant to this Section by
the
Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as partial
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $500 of Warrant Shares (based
on the closing price of the Common Stock reported by the principal Trading
Market on the date such securities are submitted to the Company’s transfer
agent), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $15 per Trading Day five (5) Trading
Days after such damages have begun to accrue and increasing to $20 per Trading
Day ten (10) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each
Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Common Stock certificate
is
delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages
for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates, and the Holder shall have the
right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including,
without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holder shall
be
entitled to withdraw an Exercise Notice, and upon such withdrawal the Company
shall only be obligated to pay the liquidated damages accrued in accordance
with
this Section through the date the Exercise Notice is withdrawn. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Holder shall not be entitled to the damages set forth herein
for the delay in the delivery of the shares of Common Stock upon exercise of
this Warrant, if such delay is due to causes which are beyond the reasonable
control of the Company, including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of
civil or military authority, fire, flood, earthquake, hurricane, riot, war,
terrorism, sabotage and/or governmental action, provided that the Company:
(i)
gives the Holder prompt notice of each such cause; and (ii) uses reasonable
efforts to correct such failure or delay in its performance.
(ii) In
addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails
to
cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant
on
or before the Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required
by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares
of
Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the shares
of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such exercise (a “BUY-IN”), then the Company shall (1) pay in
cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so
purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant that the Company
was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the conversion at
issue
times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase
obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate
the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of shares of Common Stock
for
which such conversion was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of
shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely
complied with its conversion and delivery obligations hereunder. For example,
if
the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000
to
cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Common
Stock
with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000,
under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be
required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written
notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In,
together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested
by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other
remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to
the
terms hereof.
(d) Cashless
Exercise.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, commencing on May
14,
2009, if, at the time of exercise of this Warrant, a Registration Statement
(as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the Warrant Shares that
are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “UNAVAILABLE WARRANT SHARES”) is not
available for the resale of such Unavailable Warrant Shares, the Holder may,
in
its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu
of
making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon
such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to
receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined
according to the following formula (a “CASHLESS EXERCISE”):
Net Number =
|
(A
x B) - (A x C)
|
|
B
|
For purposes of
the foregoing formula:
|
A
|
=
|
the
total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then
being
exercised.
|
|
|
|
|
|
B
|
=
|
the
Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock (as reported by
Bloomberg) on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise
Notice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
C
|
=
|
the
Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at
the
time of such exercise.
|
(e) Disputes.
In the
case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the
arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue
to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve
such dispute in accordance with Section 12.
(f) Limitations
on Exercises.
(i) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, at no time may a Holder
of
this Warrant exercise this Warrant to the extent that after giving effect to
such exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) would
beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder) in excess
of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that upon a Holder of this
Warrant providing the Company with sixty-one (61) days notice (the “WAIVER
NOTICE”) that such Holder would like to waive this Section with regard to any or
all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, this Section
will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of the Warrant
referenced in the Waiver Notice.
(ii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, at no time may a Holder
of
this Warrant exercise this Warrant to the extent that after giving effect to
such exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) would
beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder) in excess
of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that upon a Holder of this
Warrant providing the Company with a Waiver Notice that such Holder would like
to waive this Section with regard to any or all shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Warrant, this Section shall be of no force or effect with
regard to all or a portion of the Warrant referenced in the Waiver
Notice.
(iii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, at no time may a Holder
of
this Warrant exercise this Warrant to the extent that the issuance of shares
of
Common Stock upon such exercise would exceed the aggregate number of shares
of
Common Stock which the Company may issue upon exercise of this Warrant without
breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulation of the
principal exchange upon which shares of the Company’s Common Stock are traded.
In such an event, the Company covenants to promptly as possible seek to obtain
the necessary shareholder or other approvals necessary to issue the shares
of
Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(g) Insufficient
Authorized Shares.
If at
any time while any of the Warrants remain outstanding the Company does not
have
a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock (an
“AUTHORIZED SHARE FAILURE”) to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance
upon exercise of the Warrants at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal
to 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time
be
necessary to effect the exercise of all of the Warrants then outstanding (the
“REQUIRED RESERVE AMOUNT”), then the Company shall immediately take all action
necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an
amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount
for the Warrants then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence
of
an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after
the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a
meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company
shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its
reasonable best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase
in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to
recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal.
(h) Redemption.
Except
as otherwise explicitly provided for herein, this Warrant is not redeemable
or
callable by the Company at any time.
2. ADJUSTMENT
OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES.
The
Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time
to
time as follows:
(a) Adjustment
upon Issuance of shares of Common Stock.
If and
whenever on or after the Subscription Date the Company issues or sells, or
in
accordance with this Section 2 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares
of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned
or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding shares of Common
Stock which are Excluded Securities or are deemed to have been issued by the
Company in connection with any Excluded Securities) for a consideration per
share (the “NEW ISSUANCE PRICE”) less than a price (the “APPLICABLE PRICE”)
equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale
or
deemed issuance or sale (the foregoing a “DILUTIVE ISSUANCE”), then immediately
after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced
to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. Upon each such adjustment of
the
Exercise Price hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted to
the
number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the Exercise Price
in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares
acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment. For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under this
Section 2(a), the following shall be applicable:
(i) Issuance
of Options.
If the
Company in any manner grants any Options and the lowest price per share for
which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option
or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable
upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such
shares of Common Stock (underlying such Option shall be deemed to be outstanding
and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting
or
sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this
Section 2(a)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common
Stock is issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion, exercise
or
exchange of such Convertible Securities” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest
amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with
respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the
Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange
of
any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further
adjustment of the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares shall be made
upon
the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or of such Convertible
Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of
such
shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible
Securities.
(ii) Issuance
of Convertible Securities.
If the
Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest
price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the
conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price,
then
such shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Convertible
Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold
by
the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities
for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 2(a)(ii), the
“lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon
the
conversion, exercise or exchange” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest
amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with
respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the
Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such
Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price or number
of
Warrant Shares shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common
Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities,
and
if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise
of any Options for which adjustment of this Warrant has been or is to be made
pursuant to other provisions of this Section 2(a), no further adjustment of
the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares shall be made by reason of such
issue or sale. A change that permits the holder of an Option or Convertible
Security to utilize a cashless exercise feature shall not be deemed to decrease
the consideration payable by the holder solely by reason of the fact that the
cashless exercise feature would result in a reduction in cash consideration
receivable by the Company.
(iii) Change
in Option Price or Rate of Conversion.
If the
purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if
any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible
Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible
into
or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases
at any time, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares in effect
at
the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price
and the number of Warrant Shares which would have been in effect at such time
had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or
decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased
conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued
or
sold. For purposes of this Section 2(a)(iii), if the terms of any Option or
Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of this
Warrant are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately
preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares
of
Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof
shall
be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease.
No
adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be made if such adjustment
would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect or a decrease
in the number of Warrant Shares. A change that permits the holder of an Option
or Convertible Security to utilize a cashless exercise feature shall not be
deemed to decrease the consideration payable by the holder solely by reason
of
the fact that the cashless exercise feature would result in a reduction in
cash
consideration receivable by the Company.
(iv) Calculation
of Consideration Received.
If any
Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of
the
Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific
consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, the Options
will be deemed to have been issued for a consideration of $0.01. If any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have
been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed
to be the gross amount paid by the purchaser of such Common Stock, Options,
or
Convertible Securities, before any commissions, discounts, fees or expenses.
If
any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners
of
the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company
is
the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to
be
the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the
non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities, as the case may be. If any Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or
sold
for non-cash consideration, the consideration received therefore will be deemed
to be the fair value of such non-cash consideration as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(v) Record
Date.
If the
Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose
of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in
shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe
for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities,
then
such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the
shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration
of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the
granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may
be.
(b) Stock
Dividends and Splits.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock
dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class
of
capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii)
combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares,
then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of
which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any
adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause
(ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the
effective date of such subdivision or combination.
(c) Fundamental
Transactions.
If, at
any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction,
then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of
this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it
would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction,
the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise
in full of this Warrant (the “ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION”). For purposes of any
such conversion, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately
adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of
Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in
such
Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price
among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative
value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders
of
Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to
be
received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same
choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of
Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The terms of any agreement
pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms
requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions
of this paragraph (c) and insuring that the Common Stock (or any such
replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction
analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
(d) Other
Events.
If any
event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2
but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without
limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights
or
other rights with equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors in
good faith will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as
to
be equitable under the circumstances and otherwise protect the rights of the
Holder; provided that no such adjustment will increase the Exercise Price as
otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7.3.
3. RIGHTS
UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.
If
the
Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets
(or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by
way
of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any
distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way
of a

arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “DISTRIBUTION”), at any time after
the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed
for
the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive
the
Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such
record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a
fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the Exercise Price on such record
date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the
Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (ii)
the denominator shall be the Exercise Price on such record date.
4. PURCHASE

purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record
holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “PURCHASE RIGHTS”), then the
Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase
Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired
if

acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any

Change of Control, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any
portion of this Warrant by delivering written notice thereof (“CHANGE IN CONTROL
REDEMPTION NOTICE”) to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice
shall indicate the amount the Holder is electing to be redeemed. Any such
redemption shall be in cash in the amount equal to the value of the remaining
unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such consummation, which
value shall be determined by use of the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model
reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury

request and (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 60% and the
100

observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at
all
times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all
action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par
value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant
above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as
may
be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally
issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise
of
this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Warrants are outstanding,
take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized
and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the
exercise of the Warrants, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall
from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of the Warrants then
outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).
6. WARRANT

Except
as
otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s
capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive
dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any
purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer
upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant,
any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give
or
withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue
of
stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or
otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription
rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares
which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this
Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed
as
imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise
of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such
liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with
copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders
of
the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the
stockholders.

performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the

HEADINGS.
This

12. DISPUTE
RESOLUTION.
In

as
the case may be, to the Holder. If the Holder and the Company are unable to
agree upon such determination or calculation of the Exercise Price or the
Warrant Shares within three Business Days of such disputed determination or
arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall,
within two Business Days submit via facsimile (a) the disputed determination
of

at its expense the investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to
perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder

The
remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all
other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents,
at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other
injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder
right
to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the
terms
of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at
law
for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in
the
event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall
be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction
restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and
without any bond or other security being required.

consent of the Company, except as may otherwise be required by the Securities
Purchase Agreement.

2. Piggy-Back
Registration.
(a) If
at any
time after the date hereof, the Company proposes to register any of its
securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering
of
such securities solely for cash (other than a registration on Form S-4, Form
S-8, or any successor or similar forms), whether for the account of the Company,
a selling shareholder, or otherwise, it will promptly, but not later than 30
days before the anticipated date of filing such registration statement, give
written notice to all record holders of the Registrable Securities; provided,
however, that the inclusion of Registrable Securities in a registration
statement filed pursuant to the terms of the certain Amended and Restated
Registration Rights Agreement, dated March 31, 2007, between the Company and
Vicis Capital Master Fund (“Vicis”)
shall
be subject to and conditioned upon the Company obtaining the waiver by Vicis
of

Securities in such registration. Upon the written request from any Holders
(the
“Requesting
Holders”),
within 15 days after receipt of any such notice from the Company, the Company
will, except as herein provided, cause all of the Registrable Securities covered
by such request (the “Requested

held
by the Requesting Holders to be included in such registration statement, all

registration.
(b) If
any
registration pursuant to Section 2(a) shall be underwritten in whole or in

on the same terms and conditions as the securities otherwise being sold through

by
the underwriters, execute an underwriting agreement containing customary
representations and warranties by selling stockholders. If in the good faith
judgment of the managing underwriter of such public offering the inclusion
of
all of the Requested Stock would reduce the number of shares to be offered
by
the Company or interfere with the successful marketing of the shares of stock
offered by the Company, the number of shares of Requested Stock otherwise to
be
included in the underwritten public offering may be reduced pro rata (by number
of shares) among the Requesting Holders and all other holders of registration
rights who have requested inclusion of their securities or excluded in their
entirety if so required by the underwriter. To the extent only a portion of
the
Requested Stock is included in the underwritten public offering, those shares
of
Requested Stock which are thus excluded from the underwritten public offering
and any other securities of the Company held by such holders shall be withheld
from the market by the Holders thereof for a period, not to exceed 90 days,
which the managing underwriter reasonably determines is necessary in order
to
effect the underwritten public offering. The obligation of the Company under
Section 2(a) shall not apply after the earlier of (i) the date that all of
the
Conversion Shares have been sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act
or an effective registration statement, or (ii) such time as the Conversion
Shares are eligible for immediate resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act to the Holders.
(c) If
the
registration statement is an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415 and is not on a Form S-3, and the Commission advises the Company
that all of the Requested Stock may not be included under Rule 415(a)(i), then
the number of shares of Requested Stock otherwise to be included in such
registration statement may be reduced pro rata (by number of shares) among
the
Requesting Holders and all other holders of piggyback registration rights who
have requested inclusion of their securities to an amount to which is permitted
by the Commission for resale under Rule 415(a)(i).
3. Registration
Procedures.
If and
whenever the Company is required by the provisions hereof to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company
will, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a) prepare
and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such
Registrable Securities, respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any
comments received from the Commission, and use its best efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become and remain effective, and promptly provide
to
the Holders copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment relating
thereto and before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto, furnish to the Holders copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed, including documents incorporated by reference
in
the Prospectus and, if requested by the Holders, the exhibits incorporated
by
reference, and the Holders shall have the opportunity to object to any
information pertaining to itself that is contained therein and the Company
will
make the corrections reasonably requested by the Holders with respect to such
information prior to filing any Registration Statement or amendment thereto
or
any Prospectus or any supplement thereto;
(b) prepare
and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such
Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may
be
necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect
to
the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement and to keep such Registration Statement effective;
(c) furnish
to the Holders such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus included therein (including each preliminary Prospectus and any
amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus)
and
such other documents as the Holders reasonably may request to facilitate the
public sale or disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement;
(d) use
its
best efforts to register or qualify the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered
by such Registration Statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such
jurisdictions within the United States as the Holders may reasonably request
and
do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or
advisable to enable the Holders to consummate the disposition in such
jurisdiction of the Registrable Securities, provided,
however,
that
the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally
to
transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is
not
so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction;
(e) list
the
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement with any
securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then
listed;
(f) immediately
notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required
to
be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result
of which the Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, as then in
effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, and, at the request of the Holders, the Company shall
prepare a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter
delivered to the purchasers of Registrable Securities, such Prospectus shall
not
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein
not misleading;
(g) to
the
extent pertinent to the registration and sale of the Registrable Securities
under the Registration Statement, make available for inspection by the Holders
and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders, all
publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company, and, to the extent pertinent
to the registration and sale of the Registrable Securities under the
Registration Statement, cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to
supply all publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested
by the attorney, accountant or agent of the Holders;
(h) provide
a
transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later
than
the effective date of such Registration Statement;
(i) if
requested, cause to be delivered, immediately prior to the effectiveness of
the
Registration Statement, letters from the Company’s independent certified public
accountants addressed to the Holders (unless the Holders does not provide to
such accountants the appropriate representation letter required by rules
governing the accounting profession) stating that such accountants are
independent public accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and
the
applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, and
otherwise in customary form and covering such financial and accounting matters
as are customarily covered by letters of the independent certified public
accountants delivered in connection with primary or secondary underwritten
public offerings, as the case may be; and
(j) at
all
times after the Company has filed a Registration Statement with the Commission
pursuant to the requirements of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act,
the Company shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by
the
Commission thereunder, and take such further action as the Holders may
reasonably request, all to the extent required to enable the Holders to be
eligible to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar
rule then in effect).
4. Registration
Expenses.
All
expenses relating to the Company’s compliance with Sections 2 and 3 hereof,
including, without limitation, all registration, filing and listing application
fees, costs of distributing any prospectuses and supplements thereto, printing
expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants
for the Company, fees and expenses (including counsel fees) incurred in
connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the
NASD, fees of transfer agents and registrars, fees (not to exceed $20,000)
of,
and disbursements incurred by, one counsel for the Holders are called
“Registration Expenses.” All selling commissions applicable to the sale of
Registrable Securities, including any fees and disbursements of any special
counsel to the Holders beyond those included in Registration Expenses, are
called “Selling Expenses.” The Company shall only be responsible for all
Registration Expenses. The obligation of the Company to bear the expenses
described above shall apply irrespective of whether a registration becomes
effective, is withdrawn or suspended, is converted to another form of
registration and irrespective of when any of the foregoing shall
occur.
5. Indemnification.
(a) In
the
event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities
Act
pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each
Holder, and its officers, directors and each other person, if any, who controls
such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Holder, or
such
persons may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such
Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to
this
Agreement, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus contained therein,
or
any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
any
violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or applicable “blue sky” laws, and will reimburse each Holder, and
each such person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them
in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided,
however,
that
the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any
such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made
in
conformity with information furnished by or on behalf of such Holder or any
such
person in writing specifically for use in any such document.
(b) In
the
event of a registration of the Registrable Securities under the Securities
Act
pursuant to this Agreement, the Holders will indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, and its officers, directors and each other person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such
persons may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact which was furnished in writing by the Holders to the
Company expressly for use in (and such information is contained in) the
Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered
under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, any preliminary Prospectus
or final Prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the
statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each
such
person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action, provided,
however,
that
the Holders will be liable in any such case if and only to the extent that
any
such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made
in
conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf
of the Holders specifically for use in any such document. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this paragraph, the Holders shall not be required to indemnify
any
person or entity in excess of the amount of the aggregate net proceeds received
by the Holders in respect of Registrable Securities in connection with any
such
registration under the Securities Act.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by a party entitled to claim indemnification hereunder (an
“Indemnified
Party”)
of
notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party shall, if
a
claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against a party
hereto obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party (an “Indemnifying
Party”),
notify the Indemnifying Party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify
the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may
have
to such Indemnified Party other than under this Section 5(c) and shall only
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party under
this Section 5(c) if and to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced
by
such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnified
Party and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof,
the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent
it
shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Indemnifying
Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume and undertake
the
defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified
Party under this Section 5(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred
by
such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; if the
Indemnified Party retains its own counsel, then the Indemnified Party shall
pay
all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel, provided,
however,
that,
if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and
the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from
or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests
of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests
of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select
one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to
participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and
fees
of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to
be
reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred.
(d) In
order
to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability
under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) the Holders, or any
officer, director or controlling person of the Holders, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 5 but it is judicially determined
(by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction
and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal)
that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
that this Section 5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the Holders
or such officer, director or controlling person of the Holders in circumstances
for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5; then, and in each
such case, the Company and the Holders will contribute to the aggregate losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution
from others) in such proportion so that the Holders is responsible only for
the
portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its
securities offered by the Registration Statement bears to the public offering
price of all securities offered by such Registration Statement, provided,
however,
that,
in any such case, (A) the Holders will not be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it
pursuant to such Registration Statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty
of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act)
will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty
of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(e) The
indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force
and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified
party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party
and shall survive the transfer of securities.
6. Representations
and Warranties.
(a) Neither
the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their
behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security
or
solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would cause
the offering of the Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities
Act which would prevent the Company from selling the Common Stock pursuant
to
Rule 506 under the Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related
stockholder approval provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates
or subsidiaries take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the
Securities to be integrated with other offerings (other than such concurrent
offering to the Holders) or other offerings of the Company that will not result
in the loss of an exemption from registration under Rule 506 of the Securities
Act).
(b) The
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant are all
restricted securities under the Securities Act as of the date of this Agreement.
The Company will not issue any stop transfer order or other order impeding
the
sale and delivery of any of the Registrable Securities at such time as such
Registrable Securities are registered for public sale or an exemption from
registration is available, except as required by federal or state securities
laws.
(c) The
Company understands the nature of the Registrable Securities issuable upon
the
exercise of the Warrant and recognizes that the issuance of such Registrable
Securities may have a potential dilutive effect. The Company specifically
acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Registrable Securities is binding
upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may
have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the
Company.
(d) Except
for agreements made in the ordinary course of business, there is no agreement
that has not been filed with the Commission as an exhibit to a registration
statement or to a form required to be filed by the Company under the Exchange
Act, the breach of which could reasonably be expected to have a material and
adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, or would prohibit or
otherwise interfere with the ability of the Company to enter into and perform
any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material
respect.
(e) The
Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number
of
shares of Common Stock for the complete exercise of the Warrant.
(f) The
Company shall provide written notice to each Holder of (i) the occurrence of
each Discontinuation Event (as defined below) and (ii) the declaration of
effectiveness by the Commission of each Registration Statement required to
be
filed hereunder, in each case within one (1) business day of the date of each
such occurrence and/or declaration.
7. Miscellaneous.
(a) Remedies.
In the
event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder, of any of their respective
obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may
be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and
under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Agreement.
(b) Compliance.
Each
Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales
of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement.
(c) Discontinued
Disposition.
Each
Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon
receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of a Discontinuation
Event (as defined below), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition
of
such Registrable Securities under the applicable Registration Statement until
such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or
amended Registration Statement or until it is advised in writing (the
“Advice”)
by the
Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either
case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or
Registration Statement. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to
enforce the provisions of this paragraph. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Discontinuation Event” shall mean (i) when the Commission notifies the Company
whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the
Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement (the Company
shall
provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto
to
each of the Holders); (ii) any request by the Commission or any other Federal
or
state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such Registration
Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) the issuance by
the
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration
Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation
of
any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose; and/or (v) the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes
the financial statements included in such Registration Statement ineligible
for
inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or
Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein
by
reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to
such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case
of
such Registration Statement or Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.
(d) Amendments
and Waivers.
The
provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may
not
be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures
from
the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing
and
signed by the Company and the Holders of the then outstanding Registrable
Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from
the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to
the
rights of certain Holders and that does not directly or indirectly affect the
rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the
Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent relates; provided,
however,
that
the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented
except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding
sentence.

respective addresses set forth below or as may hereafter be specified in a

THIS

STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. The Company hereby
consents and agrees that the state or federal courts located in the County
of
New York, State of New York shall have exclusion jurisdiction to hear and
determine any Proceeding between the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders,
on the other hand, pertaining to this Agreement or to any matter arising out
of
or related to this Agreement; provided,
that
the Holders and the Company acknowledge that any appeals from those courts
may
have to be heard by a court located outside of the County of New York, State
of
New York, and further provided,
that
nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holders
from bringing a Proceeding in any other jurisdiction to collect the obligations,
to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the obligations, or
to
enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of the Holders. The Company
expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any Proceeding
commenced in any such court, and the Company hereby waives any objection which
it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue or
forum
non conveniens.
The
Company hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaint and other
process issued in any such Proceeding and agrees that service of such summons,
complaint and other process may be made by registered or certified mail
addressed to the Company at the address set forth in Section 7(f) and that
service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier of the Company’s
actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper
postage prepaid. The parties hereto desire that their disputes be resolved
by a
judge applying such applicable laws. Therefore, to achieve the best combination
of the benefits of the judicial system and of arbitration, the parties hereto
waive all rights to trial by jury in any Proceeding brought to resolve any
dispute, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise between the Holders
and/or the Company arising out of, connected with, related or incidental to
the
relationship established between then in connection with this Agreement. If
either party hereto shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any provisions of
this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be reimbursed
by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and
expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such
Proceeding.
(i) Cumulative
Remedies.
The
remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.
(j) Severability.

of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to
find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the
same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or
restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants
and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared
invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
(k) Headings.
The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall
not

THE
GUARANTY
2.1 The
Guaranty.
Guarantor, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby unconditionally and
absolutely guarantees to Lender the full and complete payment and performance
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of each
of
the Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of
collection.
2.2 Waivers
and Consents.
(a) Guarantor
acknowledges that the obligations undertaken herein involve the guaranty of
obligations of a Person other than Guarantor and, in full recognition of that
fact, Guarantor consents and agrees that Lender may, to the extent permitted
under the Transaction Documents, at any time and from time to time, without
notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing
effectiveness hereof: (i) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate
or otherwise change the time for payment or the other terms of the Obligations
or any part thereof, including without limitation any decrease of the principal
amount thereof or the rate(s) of interest thereon; (ii) supplement, modify,
amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with
respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Transaction
Documents or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant,
default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder; (iii)
accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for
or
relative to any of the Transaction Documents or the Obligations or any part
thereof; (iv) accept partial payments on the Obligations; (v) receive and hold
additional security or guaranties for the Obligations or any part thereof;
(vi)
release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate,
exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and
apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender
in
its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (vii) release any Person from
any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof;
(viii) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Lender or by operation of
applicable Law or otherwise, liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any
security or guaranty in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security
and
bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (ix) consent to the merger, change or
any
other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of a Borrower
or
any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the Obligations, and any
such
merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability
of
Guarantor or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof
with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
(b) Upon
the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may
enforce this Guaranty independently of any other remedy, guaranty or security
Lender at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and
it
shall not be necessary for Lender to marshal assets in favor of a Borrower,
any
other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person or to proceed upon or
against and/or exhaust any security or remedy before proceeding to enforce
this
Guaranty. Guarantor expressly waives any right to require Lender, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to marshal assets
in favor of a Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against a Borrower
or
any other guarantor of the Obligations or any collateral provided by any Person,
and agrees that Lender may proceed against any obligor and/or the collateral
in
such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender
may
file a separate action or actions against Guarantor, whether action is brought
or prosecuted with respect to any security or against any other Person, or
whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor
agrees that Lender and Borrowers may deal with each other in connection with
the
Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter
existing between them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering
or affecting the security of this Guaranty.
(c) The
rights of Lender hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the
enforceability of this Guaranty shall continue, with respect to any amount
at
any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required
to be restored or returned by Lender upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of any Person, all as though such amount had not been paid.
The
rights of Lender created or granted herein and the enforceability of this
Guaranty shall remain effective at all times to guarantee the full amount of
all
the Obligations even though the Obligations, including any part thereof or
any
other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid
or
otherwise unenforceable as against Borrowers or any other guarantor of the
Obligations and whether or not any Borrower or any other guarantor of the
Obligations shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.
(d) To
the
extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor expressly waives any and all
defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of: (i) any disability
or other defense of any Borrower or any other guarantor for the Obligations
with
respect to the Obligations (other than full payment and performance of all
of
the Obligations); (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security for
or
guaranty of the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection
or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations; (iii) the
cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any
other
guarantor of the Obligations (other than by reason of the full payment and
performance of all Obligations); (iv) any failure of Lender to marshal assets
in
favor of any Borrower or any other Person; (v) any failure of Lender to give
notice of sale or other disposition of collateral to any Borrower or any other
Person liable for the Obligations or any defect in any notice that may be given
in connection with any sale or disposition of collateral; (vi) any failure
of
Lender to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale or other
disposition of any collateral or other security for any Obligation, including,
without limitation, any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable
sale or other disposition of any collateral or other security for any
Obligation; (vii) any act or omission of Lender or others that directly or
indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or any
other guarantor of the Obligations, or of any security or guaranty therefor
by
operation of Law or otherwise; (viii) any failure of Lender to file or enforce
a
claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person; (ix)
the
election by Lender, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the
application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States
Bankruptcy Code; (x) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under
Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xi) any use of collateral
under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any agreement
or
stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any
bankruptcy proceeding of any Person; (xiii) the avoidance of any lien or
security interest in favor of Lender for any reason; (xiv) any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation
or
dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including without
limitation any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any
of
the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such
proceeding; or (xv) any action taken by Lender that is authorized by this
Section or any other provision of any Transaction Document. Until all of the
Obligations have been paid in full, Guarantor expressly waives all presentments,
demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or
demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and
all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or
incurrence of new or additional Obligations.
2.3 Condition
of Borrowers.
Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that it has established adequate
means of obtaining from the Borrowers, on a continuing basis, financial and
other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition
(financial and otherwise) of any Borrower and its assets and properties.
Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of
Lender (should any such duty exist) to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact
or
thing related to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise)
of any Borrower or its assets or properties, whether now known or hereafter
known by Lender during the life of this Guaranty. With respect to any of the
Obligations, Lender need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or agents
acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and all Obligations made or created
in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be
guaranteed hereby.
2.4 Continuing
Guaranty.
This is
a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect as to all of
the
Obligations until all amounts owing by Borrowers to Lender on the Obligations
shall have been paid in full.
2.5 Subrogation;
Subordination.
Guarantor expressly subordinates and postpones any claim for reimbursement,
contribution, indemnity or subrogation which Guarantor may have against a
Borrower as a guarantor of the Obligations and any other legal or equitable
claim against a Borrower arising out of the payment of the Obligations by
Guarantor or from the proceeds of any collateral for this Guaranty, until all
amounts owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full.
In
furtherance, and not in limitation, of the foregoing waiver, until all amounts
owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor
hereby agrees that no payment by Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall
constitute Guarantor a creditor of Borrower. Until all amounts owing to Lender
under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall not seek
any
reimbursement from any Borrower in respect of payments made by Guarantor in
connection with this Guaranty, or in respect of amounts realized by Lender
in
connection with any collateral for the Obligations, and Guarantor expressly
subordinates and postpones any right to enforce any remedy that Lender now
has
or hereafter may have against any other Person and waives the benefit of, or
any
right to participate in, any collateral now or hereafter held by Lender. No
claim which any Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of any of the
Obligations or against any Borrower, to the extent not subordinated and
postponed pursuant to this Section, shall be enforced nor any payment accepted
until the Obligations are paid in full.

THE
GUARANTY
2.1 The
Guaranty.
Guarantor, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby unconditionally and
absolutely guarantees to Lender the full and complete payment and performance
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of each
of
the Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of
collection.
2.2 Waivers
and Consents.
(a) Guarantor
acknowledges that the obligations undertaken herein involve the guaranty of
obligations of a Person other than Guarantor and, in full recognition of that
fact, Guarantor consents and agrees that Lender may, to the extent permitted
under the Transaction Documents, at any time and from time to time, without
notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing
effectiveness hereof: (i) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate
or otherwise change the time for payment or the other terms of the Obligations
or any part thereof, including without limitation any decrease of the principal
amount thereof or the rate(s) of interest thereon; (ii) supplement, modify,
amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with
respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Transaction

accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for
or

additional security or guaranties for the Obligations or any part thereof;
(vi)
release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate,
exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and
apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender
in
its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (vii) release any Person from
any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof;
(viii) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Lender or by operation of
applicable Law or otherwise, liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any
security or guaranty in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security
and
bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (ix) consent to the merger, change or
any
other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of a Borrower
or
any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the Obligations, and any
such
merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability
of
Guarantor or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof
with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
(b) Upon
the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may
enforce this Guaranty independently of any other remedy, guaranty or security
Lender at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and
it
shall not be necessary for Lender to marshal assets in favor of a Borrower,
any
other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person or to proceed upon or
against and/or exhaust any security or remedy before proceeding to enforce
this
Guaranty. Guarantor expressly waives any right to require Lender, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to marshal assets
in favor of a Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against a Borrower
or
any other guarantor of the Obligations or any collateral provided by any Person,
and agrees that Lender may proceed against any obligor and/or the collateral
in
such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender
may
file a separate action or actions against Guarantor, whether action is brought
or prosecuted with respect to any security or against any other Person, or
whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor
agrees that Lender and Borrowers may deal with each other in connection with
the
Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter
existing between them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering
or affecting the security of this Guaranty.
(c) The
rights of Lender hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the
enforceability of this Guaranty shall continue, with respect to any amount
at
any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required
to be restored or returned by Lender upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of any Person, all as though such amount had not been paid.
The
rights of Lender created or granted herein and the enforceability of this
Guaranty shall remain effective at all times to guarantee the full amount of
all
the Obligations even though the Obligations, including any part thereof or
any
other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid
or
otherwise unenforceable as against Borrowers or any other guarantor of the
Obligations and whether or not any Borrower or any other guarantor of the
Obligations shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.
(d) To
the
extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor expressly waives any and all
defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of: (i) any disability
or other defense of any Borrower or any other guarantor for the Obligations
with
respect to the Obligations (other than full payment and performance of all
of
the Obligations); (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security for
or
guaranty of the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection
or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations; (iii) the
cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any
other
guarantor of the Obligations (other than by reason of the full payment and
performance of all Obligations); (iv) any failure of Lender to marshal assets
in
favor of any Borrower or any other Person; (v) any failure of Lender to give
notice of sale or other disposition of collateral to any Borrower or any other
Person liable for the Obligations or any defect in any notice that may be given
in connection with any sale or disposition of collateral; (vi) any failure
of
Lender to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale or other
disposition of any collateral or other security for any Obligation, including,
without limitation, any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable
sale or other disposition of any collateral or other security for any
Obligation; (vii) any act or omission of Lender or others that directly or
indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or any
other guarantor of the Obligations, or of any security or guaranty therefor
by
operation of Law or otherwise; (viii) any failure of Lender to file or enforce
a
claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person; (ix)
the
election by Lender, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the
application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States
Bankruptcy Code; (x) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under
Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xi) any use of collateral
under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any agreement
or
stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any
bankruptcy proceeding of any Person; (xiii) the avoidance of any lien or
security interest in favor of Lender for any reason; (xiv) any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation
or
dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including without
limitation any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any
of
the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such
proceeding; or (xv) any action taken by Lender that is authorized by this
Section or any other provision of any Transaction Document. Until all of the
Obligations have been paid in full, Guarantor expressly waives all presentments,
demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or
demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and
all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or
incurrence of new or additional Obligations.
2.3 Condition
of Borrowers.
Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that it has established adequate
means of obtaining from the Borrowers, on a continuing basis, financial and
other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition
(financial and otherwise) of any Borrower and its assets and properties.
Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of
Lender (should any such duty exist) to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact
or
thing related to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise)
of any Borrower or its assets or properties, whether now known or hereafter
known by Lender during the life of this Guaranty. With respect to any of the
Obligations, Lender need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or agents
acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and all Obligations made or created
in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be
guaranteed hereby.
2.4 Continuing
Guaranty.
This is
a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect as to all of
the
Obligations until all amounts owing by Borrowers to Lender on the Obligations
shall have been paid in full.
2.5 Subrogation;
Subordination.
Guarantor expressly subordinates and postpones any claim for reimbursement,
contribution, indemnity or subrogation which Guarantor may have against a
Borrower as a guarantor of the Obligations and any other legal or equitable
claim against a Borrower arising out of the payment of the Obligations by
Guarantor or from the proceeds of any collateral for this Guaranty, until all
amounts owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full.
In
furtherance, and not in limitation, of the foregoing waiver, until all amounts
owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor
hereby agrees that no payment by Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall
constitute Guarantor a creditor of Borrower. Until all amounts owing to Lender
under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall not seek
any
reimbursement from any Borrower in respect of payments made by Guarantor in
connection with this Guaranty, or in respect of amounts realized by Lender
in
connection with any collateral for the Obligations, and Guarantor expressly
subordinates and postpones any right to enforce any remedy that Lender now
has
or hereafter may have against any other Person and waives the benefit of, or
any
right to participate in, any collateral now or hereafter held by Lender. No
claim which any Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of any of the
Obligations or against any Borrower, to the extent not subordinated and
postponed pursuant to this Section, shall be enforced nor any payment accepted
until the Obligations are paid in full.

ARTICLE

THE
GUARANTY
2.1 The
Guaranty.
Guarantor, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby unconditionally and
absolutely guarantees to Lender the full and complete payment and performance
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of each
of
the Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of
collection.
2.2 Waivers
and Consents.
(a) Guarantor
acknowledges that the obligations undertaken herein involve the guaranty of
obligations of a Person other than Guarantor and, in full recognition of that
fact, Guarantor consents and agrees that Lender may, to the extent permitted
under the Transaction Documents, at any time and from time to time, without
notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing
effectiveness hereof: (i) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate
or otherwise change the time for payment or the other terms of the Obligations
or any part thereof, including without limitation any decrease of the principal
amount thereof or the rate(s) of interest thereon; (ii) supplement, modify,
amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with
respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Transaction
Documents or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant,
default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder; (iii)
accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for
or
relative to any of the Transaction Documents or the Obligations or any part
thereof; (iv) accept partial payments on the Obligations; (v) receive and hold
additional security or guaranties for the Obligations or any part thereof;
(vi)
release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate,
exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and
apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender
in
its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (vii) release any Person from
any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof;
(viii) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Lender or by operation of
applicable Law or otherwise, liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any
security or guaranty in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security
and
bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (ix) consent to the merger, change or
any
other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of a Borrower
or
any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the Obligations, and any
such
merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability
of
Guarantor or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof
with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
(b) Upon
the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may
enforce this Guaranty independently of any other remedy, guaranty or security
Lender at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and
it
shall not be necessary for Lender to marshal assets in favor of a Borrower,
any
other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person or to proceed upon or
against and/or exhaust any security or remedy before proceeding to enforce
this
Guaranty. Guarantor expressly waives any right to require Lender, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to marshal assets
in favor of a Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against a Borrower
or
any other guarantor of the Obligations or any collateral provided by any Person,
and agrees that Lender may proceed against any obligor and/or the collateral
in
such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender
may
file a separate action or actions against Guarantor, whether action is brought
or prosecuted with respect to any security or against any other Person, or
whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor
agrees that Lender and Borrowers may deal with each other in connection with
the
Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter
existing between them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering
or affecting the security of this Guaranty.
(c) The
rights of Lender hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the
enforceability of this Guaranty shall continue, with respect to any amount
at
any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required
to be restored or returned by Lender upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of any Person, all as though such amount had not been paid.
The
rights of Lender created or granted herein and the enforceability of this
Guaranty shall remain effective at all times to guarantee the full amount of
all
the Obligations even though the Obligations, including any part thereof or
any
other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid
or
otherwise unenforceable as against Borrowers or any other guarantor of the
Obligations and whether or not any Borrower or any other guarantor of the
Obligations shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.
(d) To
the
extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor expressly waives any and all
defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of: (i) any disability
or other defense of any Borrower or any other guarantor for the Obligations
with
respect to the Obligations (other than full payment and performance of all
of
the Obligations); (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security for
or
guaranty of the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection
or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations; (iii) the
cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any
other
guarantor of the Obligations (other than by reason of the full payment and
performance of all Obligations); (iv) any failure of Lender to marshal assets
in
favor of any Borrower or any other Person; (v) any failure of Lender to give
notice of sale or other disposition of collateral to any Borrower or any other
Person liable for the Obligations or any defect in any notice that may be given
in connection with any sale or disposition of collateral; (vi) any failure
of
Lender to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale or other
disposition of any collateral or other security for any Obligation, including,
without limitation, any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable
sale or other disposition of any collateral or other security for any
Obligation; (vii) any act or omission of Lender or others that directly or
indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or any
other guarantor of the Obligations, or of any security or guaranty therefor
by
operation of Law or otherwise; (viii) any failure of Lender to file or enforce
a
claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person; (ix)
the
election by Lender, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the
application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States
Bankruptcy Code; (x) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under
Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xi) any use of collateral
under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any agreement
or
stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any
bankruptcy proceeding of any Person; (xiii) the avoidance of any lien or
security interest in favor of Lender for any reason; (xiv) any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation
or
dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including without
limitation any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any
of
the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such
proceeding; or (xv) any action taken by Lender that is authorized by this
Section or any other provision of any Transaction Document. Until all of the
Obligations have been paid in full, Guarantor expressly waives all presentments,
demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or
demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and
all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or
incurrence of new or additional Obligations.
2.3 Condition
of Borrowers.
Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that it has established adequate
means of obtaining from the Borrowers, on a continuing basis, financial and
other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition
(financial and otherwise) of any Borrower and its assets and properties.
Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of
Lender (should any such duty exist) to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact
or
thing related to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise)
of any Borrower or its assets or properties, whether now known or hereafter
known by Lender during the life of this Guaranty. With respect to any of the
Obligations, Lender need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or agents
acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and all Obligations made or created
in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be
guaranteed hereby.
2.4 Continuing
Guaranty.
This is
a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect as to all of
the
Obligations until all amounts owing by Borrowers to Lender on the Obligations
shall have been paid in full.
2.5 Subrogation;
Subordination.
Guarantor expressly subordinates and postpones any claim for reimbursement,
contribution, indemnity or subrogation which Guarantor may have against a
Borrower as a guarantor of the Obligations and any other legal or equitable
claim against a Borrower arising out of the payment of the Obligations by
Guarantor or from the proceeds of any collateral for this Guaranty, until all
amounts owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full.
In
furtherance, and not in limitation, of the foregoing waiver, until all amounts
owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor
hereby agrees that no payment by Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall
constitute Guarantor a creditor of Borrower. Until all amounts owing to Lender
under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall not seek
any
reimbursement from any Borrower in respect of payments made by Guarantor in
connection with this Guaranty, or in respect of amounts realized by Lender
in
connection with any collateral for the Obligations, and Guarantor expressly
subordinates and postpones any right to enforce any remedy that Lender now
has
or hereafter may have against any other Person and waives the benefit of, or
any
right to participate in, any collateral now or hereafter held by Lender. No
claim which any Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of any of the
Obligations or against any Borrower, to the extent not subordinated and
postponed pursuant to this Section, shall be enforced nor any payment accepted
until the Obligations are paid in full.

ARTICLE

THE
GUARANTY
2.1 The
Guaranty.
Guarantor, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby unconditionally and
absolutely guarantees to Lender the full and complete payment and performance
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of each
of
the Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of
collection.
2.2 Waivers
and Consents.
(a) Guarantor
acknowledges that the obligations undertaken herein involve the guaranty of
obligations of a Person other than Guarantor and, in full recognition of that
fact, Guarantor consents and agrees that Lender may, to the extent permitted
under the Transaction Documents, at any time and from time to time, without
notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing
effectiveness hereof: (i) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate
or otherwise change the time for payment or the other terms of the Obligations
or any part thereof, including without limitation any decrease of the principal
amount thereof or the rate(s) of interest thereon; (ii) supplement, modify,
amend or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with
respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Transaction
Documents or any additional security or guaranties, or any condition, covenant,
default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder; (iii)
accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for
or
relative to any of the Transaction Documents or the Obligations or any part
thereof; (iv) accept partial payments on the Obligations; (v) receive and hold
additional security or guaranties for the Obligations or any part thereof;
(vi)
release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate,
exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and
apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender
in
its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (vii) release any Person from
any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof;
(viii) settle, release on terms satisfactory to Lender or by operation of
applicable Law or otherwise, liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any
security or guaranty in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security
and
bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (ix) consent to the merger, change or
any
other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of a Borrower
or
any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the Obligations, and any
such
merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability
of
Guarantor or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof
with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
(b) Upon
the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may
enforce this Guaranty independently of any other remedy, guaranty or security
Lender at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and
it
shall not be necessary for Lender to marshal assets in favor of a Borrower,
any
other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person or to proceed upon or
against and/or exhaust any security or remedy before proceeding to enforce
this
Guaranty. Guarantor expressly waives any right to require Lender, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to marshal assets
in favor of a Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against a Borrower
or
any other guarantor of the Obligations or any collateral provided by any Person,
and agrees that Lender may proceed against any obligor and/or the collateral
in
such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender
may
file a separate action or actions against Guarantor, whether action is brought
or prosecuted with respect to any security or against any other Person, or
whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor
agrees that Lender and Borrowers may deal with each other in connection with
the
Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter
existing between them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering
or affecting the security of this Guaranty.
(c) The
rights of Lender hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the
enforceability of this Guaranty shall continue, with respect to any amount
at
any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required
to be restored or returned by Lender upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of any Person, all as though such amount had not been paid.
The
rights of Lender created or granted herein and the enforceability of this
Guaranty shall remain effective at all times to guarantee the full amount of
all
the Obligations even though the Obligations, including any part thereof or
any
other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid
or
otherwise unenforceable as against Borrowers or any other guarantor of the
Obligations and whether or not any Borrower or any other guarantor of the
Obligations shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.
(d) To
the
extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor expressly waives any and all
defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of: (i) any disability
or other defense of any Borrower or any other guarantor for the Obligations
with
respect to the Obligations (other than full payment and performance of all
of
the Obligations); (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security for
or
guaranty of the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection
or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations; (iii) the
cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any
other
guarantor of the Obligations (other than by reason of the full payment and
performance of all Obligations); (iv) any failure of Lender to marshal assets
in
favor of any Borrower or any other Person; (v) any failure of Lender to give
notice of sale or other disposition of collateral to any Borrower or any other
Person liable for the Obligations or any defect in any notice that may be given
in connection with any sale or disposition of collateral; (vi) any failure
of
Lender to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale or other
disposition of any collateral or other security for any Obligation, including,
without limitation, any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable
sale or other disposition of any collateral or other security for any
Obligation; (vii) any act or omission of Lender or others that directly or
indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or any
other guarantor of the Obligations, or of any security or guaranty therefor
by
operation of Law or otherwise; (viii) any failure of Lender to file or enforce
a
claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person; (ix)
the
election by Lender, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the
application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States
Bankruptcy Code; (x) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under
Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xi) any use of collateral
under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (xii) any agreement
or
stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any
bankruptcy proceeding of any Person; (xiii) the avoidance of any lien or
security interest in favor of Lender for any reason; (xiv) any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation
or
dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including without
limitation any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any
of
the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such
proceeding; or (xv) any action taken by Lender that is authorized by this
Section or any other provision of any Transaction Document. Until all of the
Obligations have been paid in full, Guarantor expressly waives all presentments,
demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or
demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and
all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or
incurrence of new or additional Obligations.
2.3 Condition
of Borrowers.
Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that it has established adequate
means of obtaining from the Borrowers, on a continuing basis, financial and
other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition
(financial and otherwise) of any Borrower and its assets and properties.
Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of
Lender (should any such duty exist) to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact
or
thing related to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise)
of any Borrower or its assets or properties, whether now known or hereafter
known by Lender during the life of this Guaranty. With respect to any of the
Obligations, Lender need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or agents
acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and all Obligations made or created
in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be
guaranteed hereby.
2.4 Continuing
Guaranty.
This is
a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect as to all of
the
Obligations until all amounts owing by Borrowers to Lender on the Obligations
shall have been paid in full.
2.5 Subrogation;
Subordination.
Guarantor expressly subordinates and postpones any claim for reimbursement,
contribution, indemnity or subrogation which Guarantor may have against a
Borrower as a guarantor of the Obligations and any other legal or equitable
claim against a Borrower arising out of the payment of the Obligations by
Guarantor or from the proceeds of any collateral for this Guaranty, until all
amounts owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full.
In
furtherance, and not in limitation, of the foregoing waiver, until all amounts
owing to Lender under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor
hereby agrees that no payment by Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall
constitute Guarantor a creditor of Borrower. Until all amounts owing to Lender
under the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall not seek
any
reimbursement from any Borrower in respect of payments made by Guarantor in
connection with this Guaranty, or in respect of amounts realized by Lender
in
connection with any collateral for the Obligations, and Guarantor expressly
subordinates and postpones any right to enforce any remedy that Lender now
has
or hereafter may have against any other Person and waives the benefit of, or
any
right to participate in, any collateral now or hereafter held by Lender. No
claim which any Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of any of the
Obligations or against any Borrower, to the extent not subordinated and
postponed pursuant to this Section, shall be enforced nor any payment accepted
until the Obligations are paid in full.

further agrees to take any other commercially reasonable action reasonably
requested in writing by Lender if necessary to ensure the attachment, perfection
and priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce its security interest
in
any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (i) executing,
delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the UCC, to the extent, if any, that Debtor’s signature
thereon is required therefor, (ii) complying with any provision of any
statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if
compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or
priority of, or ability of Lender to enforce, its security interest in such
Collateral, (iii) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the
UCC
(to the extent applicable) or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC
jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction, (iv)
obtaining waivers from landlords where any material portion of the tangible
Collateral is located in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender,
and (v) executing such documents and cooperating with the Lender and any
third-party to allow Lender to obtain control of any Collateral consisting
of
deposit accounts or investment property.
3.3 Locations.
Give
Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of Debtor’s intention to
relocate any of the Collateral (other than Inventory in transit) or any of
the
records relating to the Collateral from the locations listed on Schedule
1
attached
to this Security Agreement, in which event Schedule
1
shall be
deemed amended to include the new location. Any additional filings or refilings
requested in writing by Lender as a result of any such relocation in order
to
maintain the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be at Debtor’s
expense.
3.4 Insurance.
Maintain insurance (including, without limitation, commercial general liability
and property insurance) with respect to the Collateral consisting of tangible
personal property in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with
responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required
by
any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in
similar businesses similarly situated. If requested in writing by Lender, and
if
the existing third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss
payee, Debtor will obtain lender’s loss payable endorsements on applicable
insurance policies in favor of Lender and will provide to Lender certificates
of
such insurance or copies thereof. If such request is made, and if the existing
third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss payee, Debtor
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each insurer to agree, by
endorsement on the policy or policies or certificates of insurance issued by
it
or by independent instrument furnished to Lender, that such insurer will give
thirty (30) days written notice to Lender before such policy will be altered
or
canceled. No settlement of any insurance claim shall be made without Lender’s
prior consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or
delayed. In the event of any insured loss, Debtor shall promptly notify Lender
thereof in writing, and, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be
continuing, Debtor hereby authorizes and directs any insurer concerned to make
payment of such loss directly to Lender as its interest may appear. Lender
is
authorized, in the name and on behalf of Debtor, to make proof of loss and
to
adjust, compromise and collect, in such manner and amounts as it reasonably
shall determine, all claims under all policies; and Debtor agrees to sign,
on
written demand of Lender, all receipts, vouchers, releases and other instruments
which may be necessary in aid of this authorization. After an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any insurance from loss,
theft, or damage to the Collateral shall be held in a segregated account
established by Lender and disbursed and applied at the discretion of Lender,
either in reduction of the Obligations or applied toward the repair, restoration
or replacement of the Collateral.
3.5 Name;
Legal Status.
(a)
Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender, Debtor will
not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive
office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it
has
one, (b) if Debtor does not have an organizational identification number and
later obtains one, Debtor shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational
identification number, and (c) Debtor will not change its type of organization
or jurisdiction of organization.

RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES
4.1 Right
to Cure.
In case
of failure by Debtor after receipt of written notice from Lender to procure
or
maintain insurance, or to pay any fees, assessments, charges or taxes (subject
to Debtor’s right to contest in good faith, such assessments, charges or taxes)
arising with respect to the Collateral, Lender shall have the right, but shall
not be obligated, to effect such insurance or pay such fees, assessments,
charges or taxes, as the case may be, and, in that event, the cost thereof
shall
be payable by Debtor to Lender immediately upon demand, together with interest
at an annual rate of 8% from the date of disbursement by Lender to the date
of
payment by Debtor. If Lender effects any insurance on behalf of Debtor, Debtor
thereafter may cancel such insurance so effected after providing Lender with
evidence that Debtor or another secured party having cure rights similar to
those set forth in this Section 4.1 has obtained insurance as required by this
Security Agreement.
4.2 Rights
of Parties.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition
to
all the rights and remedies provided in the Transaction Documents or in
Article 9 of the UCC and any other applicable law, Lender may (but is under
no obligation so to do):
(a) require
Debtor to assemble the Collateral at a place designated by Lender, which is
reasonably convenient to the parties; and
(b) take
possession of all Collateral and of Debtor’s records pertaining to all
Collateral that are necessary to properly administer and control the Collateral
or the handling and collection of Collateral, and sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner in whole or in
part, at public or private sale, on or off the premises of Debtor;
and
(c) collect
any and all money due or to become due and enforce in Debtor’s name all rights
with respect to the Collateral; and
(d) settle,
adjust or compromise any dispute with respect to any Account; and
(e) receive
and open mail addressed to Debtor; and
(f) on
behalf of Debtor, endorse checks, notes, drafts, money orders, instruments
or
other evidences of payment.
4.3 Power
of Attorney.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor does
hereby constitute and appoint Lender as Debtor’s true and lawful attorney with
full power of substitution for Debtor in Debtor’s name, place and stead for the
purposes of performing any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement
and taking any action and executing any instrument which Lender may deem
necessary to perform any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement,
which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall not
terminate until the Obligations are paid in full.
4.4 Right
to Collect Accounts.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and without
limiting Debtor’s obligations under the Transaction Documents: (a) Debtor
authorizes Lender to notify any and all debtors on the Accounts to make payment
directly to Lender (or to such place as Lender may direct); (b) Debtor agrees,
on written notice from Lender, to deliver to Lender promptly after receipt
thereof, in the form in which received (together with all necessary
endorsements), all payments received by Debtor on account of any Account; and
(c) Lender may, at its option, apply all such payments against the Obligations
or remit all or part of such payments to Debtor.
4.5 Reasonable
Notice.
Written
notice, when required by law, sent in accordance with the provisions of Section
12.6 of the Loan Agreement and given at least ten (10) business days (counting
the day of sending) before the date of a proposed disposition of the Collateral
shall be reasonable notice.
4.6 Limitation
on Duties Regarding Collateral. The
sole duty of Lender with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the
UCC
or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with
similar property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents, shall be liable for failure to demand, collect
or
realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be
under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the
request of Debtor or otherwise.
4.7 Lock
Box; Collateral Account.
This
Section 4.7 shall be effective only upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default. If Lender so requests in writing, Debtor
will direct each of its debtors on the Accounts to make payments due under
the
relevant Account or chattel paper directly to a special lock box to be under
the
control of Lender. Debtor hereby authorizes and directs Lender to deposit into
a
special collateral account to be established and maintained by Lender all
checks, drafts and cash payments received in said lock box. All deposits in
said
collateral account shall constitute proceeds of Collateral and shall not
constitute payment of any Obligation until so applied. At its option, Lender
may, at any time, apply finally collected funds on deposit in said collateral
account to the payment of the Obligations, in the order of application set
forth
in Section 4.8, or permit Debtor to withdraw all or any part of the balance
on
deposit in said collateral account. If a collateral account is so established,
Debtor agrees that it will promptly deliver to Lender, for deposit into said
collateral account, all payments on Accounts and chattel paper received by
it.
All such payments shall be delivered to Lender in the form received (except
for
Debtor’s endorsement where necessary). Until so deposited, all payments on
Accounts and chattel paper received by Debtor shall be held in trust by Debtor
for and as the property of Lender and shall not be commingled with any funds
or
property of Debtor.
4.8 Application
of Proceeds.
Lender
shall apply the proceeds resulting from any sale or disposition of the
Collateral in the following order:
(a) to
the
reasonable costs of any sale or other disposition;
(b) to
the
reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any sale or other
disposition, including attorneys’ fees;
(c) to
the
payment of the Obligations then due and owing in any order selected by Lender
in
a commercially reasonable manner; and
(d) to
Debtor.
4.9 Other
Remedies.
No
remedy herein conferred upon Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given under this Security Agreement and the
Transaction Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising
any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
ARTICLE
V
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Expenses
and Attorneys’ Fees.
Debtor

reasonable fees of counsel, in connection with the preparation, administration

Default, Lender shall have all rights of setoff and bankers’ lien provided by

or delegable, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Lender.

be
binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties.

made
and wholly performed within such state.
5.6 Execution;
Headings.
This
Security Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which
when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall
become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered
to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the
same
counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of
the

ANY
SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURTS HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT
FORUM.

indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of Debtor or words of similar
effect, excluding Accounts based on Non-XXX Claims, regardless of whether
any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of
Article 9 of the UCC or such other jurisdiction, or (ii) as being of an equal
or
lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) contain any other information
required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency of filing office
acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether Debtor
is
an organization, the type of organization and any state or federal organization
identification number issued to Debtor. Debtor agrees to furnish any such
information to Lender promptly upon written request.
ARTICLE
III
AGREEMENTS
OF DEBTOR
From
and
after the date of this Security Agreement, and until all of the Obligations
are
paid in full, Debtor shall:
3.1 Sale
of Collateral. Not
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of Collateral or any interest
therein, except as provided for in the Loan Agreement and for sales of Inventory
in the ordinary course of business.
3.2 Maintenance
of Security Interest.
(a) At
the
expense of Debtor, defend the Security Interest against any and all claims
of
any Person adverse to Lender (but only to the extent the claim of such Person
is
subordinate or junior to the Security Interest of Lender) and take such action
and execute such financing statements and other documents as Lender may from
time to time reasonably request in writing to maintain the perfected status
of
the Security Interest. Debtor shall not further encumber or grant a security
interest in any of the Collateral except as provided for in the Loan
Agreement.
(b) Debtor
further agrees to take any other commercially reasonable action reasonably
requested in writing by Lender if necessary to ensure the attachment, perfection
and priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce its security interest
in
any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (i) executing,
delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the UCC, to the extent, if any, that Debtor’s signature
thereon is required therefor, (ii) complying with any provision of any
statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if
compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or
priority of, or ability of Lender to enforce, its security interest in such
Collateral, (iii) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the
UCC
(to the extent applicable) or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC
jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction, (iv)
obtaining waivers from landlords where any material portion of the tangible
Collateral is located in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender,
and (v) executing such documents and cooperating with the Lender and any
third-party to allow Lender to obtain control of any Collateral consisting
of
deposit accounts or investment property.
3.3 Locations.
Give
Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of Debtor’s intention to
relocate any of the Collateral (other than Inventory in transit) or any of
the
records relating to the Collateral from the locations listed on Schedule
1
attached
to this Security Agreement, in which event Schedule
1
shall be
deemed amended to include the new location. Any additional filings or refilings
requested in writing by Lender as a result of any such relocation in order
to
maintain the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be at Debtor’s
expense.
3.4 Insurance.
Maintain insurance (including, without limitation, commercial general liability
and property insurance) with respect to the Collateral consisting of tangible
personal property in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with
responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required
by
any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in
similar businesses similarly situated. If requested in writing by Lender, and
if
the existing third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss
payee, Debtor will obtain lender’s loss payable endorsements on applicable
insurance policies in favor of Lender and will provide to Lender certificates
of
such insurance or copies thereof. If such request is made, and if the existing
third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss payee, Debtor
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each insurer to agree, by
endorsement on the policy or policies or certificates of insurance issued by
it
or by independent instrument furnished to Lender, that such insurer will give
thirty (30) days written notice to Lender before such policy will be altered
or
canceled. No settlement of any insurance claim shall be made without Lender’s
prior consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or
delayed. In the event of any insured loss, Debtor shall promptly notify Lender
thereof in writing, and, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be
continuing, Debtor hereby authorizes and directs any insurer concerned to make
payment of such loss directly to Lender as its interest may appear. Lender
is
authorized, in the name and on behalf of Debtor, to make proof of loss and
to
adjust, compromise and collect, in such manner and amounts as it reasonably
shall determine, all claims under all policies; and Debtor agrees to sign,
on
written demand of Lender, all receipts, vouchers, releases and other instruments
which may be necessary in aid of this authorization. After an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any insurance from loss,
theft, or damage to the Collateral shall be held in a segregated account
established by Lender and disbursed and applied at the discretion of Lender,
either in reduction of the Obligations or applied toward the repair, restoration
or replacement of the Collateral.
3.5 Name;
Legal Status.
(a)
Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender, Debtor will
not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive
office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it
has
one, (b) if Debtor does not have an organizational identification number and
later obtains one, Debtor shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational
identification number, and (c) Debtor will not change its type of organization
or jurisdiction of organization.

RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES
4.1 Right
to Cure.
In case
of failure by Debtor after receipt of written notice from Lender to procure
or
maintain insurance, or to pay any fees, assessments, charges or taxes (subject
to Debtor’s right to contest in good faith, such assessments, charges or taxes)
arising with respect to the Collateral, Lender shall have the right, but shall
not be obligated, to effect such insurance or pay such fees, assessments,
charges or taxes, as the case may be, and, in that event, the cost thereof
shall
be payable by Debtor to Lender immediately upon demand, together with interest
at an annual rate of 8% from the date of disbursement by Lender to the date
of
payment by Debtor. If Lender effects any insurance on behalf of Debtor, Debtor
thereafter may cancel such insurance so effected after providing Lender with
evidence that Debtor or another secured party having cure rights similar to
those set forth in this Section 4.1 has obtained insurance as required by this
Security Agreement.
4.2 Rights
of Parties.
Upon

Debtor to assemble the Collateral at a place designated by Lender, which is
reasonably convenient to the parties; and
(b) take
possession of all Collateral and of Debtor’s records pertaining to all
Collateral that are necessary to properly administer and control the Collateral
or the handling and collection of Collateral, and sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner in whole or in
part, at public or private sale, on or off the premises of Debtor;

Debtor agrees that it will promptly deliver to Lender, for deposit into said
collateral account, all payments on Accounts and chattel paper received by
it.
All such payments shall be delivered to Lender in the form received (except
for
Debtor’s endorsement where necessary). Until so deposited, all payments on
Accounts and chattel paper received by Debtor shall be held in trust by Debtor
for and as the property of Lender and shall not be commingled with any funds
or
property of Debtor.

of Proceeds.
Lender
shall apply the proceeds resulting from any sale or disposition of the

disposition, including attorneys’ fees;

the
payment of the Obligations then due and owing in any order selected by Lender
in
a commercially reasonable manner; and

addition to every other remedy given under this Security Agreement and the
Transaction Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising
any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any

within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC or such other jurisdiction, or (ii)
as
being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) contain any
other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency
of filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including
whether Debtor is an organization, the type of organization and any state or

to
furnish any such information to Lender promptly upon written
request.
ARTICLE
III
AGREEMENTS
OF DEBTOR
From
and
after the date of this Security Agreement, and until all of the Obligations
are
paid in full, Debtor shall:
3.1 Sale
of Collateral. Not
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of Collateral or any interest
therein, except as provided for in the Loan Agreement and for sales of Inventory
in the ordinary course of business.
3.2 Maintenance
of Security Interest.
(a) At
the
expense of Debtor, defend the Security Interest against any and all claims
of
any Person adverse to Lender (but only to the extent the claim of such Person
is
subordinate or junior to the Security Interest of Lender) and take such action
and execute such financing statements and other documents as Lender may from
time to time reasonably request in writing to maintain the perfected status
of
the Security Interest. Debtor shall not further encumber or grant a security
interest in any of the Collateral except as provided for in the Loan
Agreement.
(b) Debtor
further agrees to take any other commercially reasonable action reasonably
requested in writing by Lender if necessary to ensure the attachment, perfection
and priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce its security interest
in
any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (i) executing,
delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the UCC, to the extent, if any, that Debtor’s signature
thereon is required therefor, (ii) complying with any provision of any
statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if
compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or
priority of, or ability of Lender to enforce, its security interest in such
Collateral, (iii) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the
UCC
(to the extent applicable) or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC
jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction, (iv)
obtaining waivers from landlords where any material portion of the tangible
Collateral is located in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender,
and (v) executing such documents and cooperating with the Lender and any
third-party to allow Lender to obtain control of any Collateral consisting
of
deposit accounts or investment property.
3.3 Locations.
Give
Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of Debtor’s intention to
relocate any of the Collateral (other than Inventory in transit) or any of
the
records relating to the Collateral from the locations listed on Schedule
1
attached
to this Security Agreement, in which event Schedule
1
shall be
deemed amended to include the new location. Any additional filings or refilings
requested in writing by Lender as a result of any such relocation in order
to
maintain the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be at Debtor’s
expense.
3.4 Insurance.
Maintain insurance (including, without limitation, commercial general liability
and property insurance) with respect to the Collateral consisting of tangible
personal property in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with
responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required
by
any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in
similar businesses similarly situated. If requested in writing by Lender, and
if
the existing third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss
payee, Debtor will obtain lender’s loss payable endorsements on applicable
insurance policies in favor of Lender and will provide to Lender certificates
of
such insurance or copies thereof. If such request is made, and if the existing
third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss payee, Debtor
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each insurer to agree, by
endorsement on the policy or policies or certificates of insurance issued by
it
or by independent instrument furnished to Lender, that such insurer will give
thirty (30) days written notice to Lender before such policy will be altered
or
canceled. No settlement of any insurance claim shall be made without Lender’s
prior consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or
delayed. In the event of any insured loss, Debtor shall promptly notify Lender
thereof in writing, and, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be
continuing, Debtor hereby authorizes and directs any insurer concerned to make
payment of such loss directly to Lender as its interest may appear. Lender
is
authorized, in the name and on behalf of Debtor, to make proof of loss and
to
adjust, compromise and collect, in such manner and amounts as it reasonably
shall determine, all claims under all policies; and Debtor agrees to sign,
on
written demand of Lender, all receipts, vouchers, releases and other instruments
which may be necessary in aid of this authorization. After an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any insurance from loss,
theft, or damage to the Collateral shall be held in a segregated account
established by Lender and disbursed and applied at the discretion of Lender,
either in reduction of the Obligations or applied toward the repair, restoration
or replacement of the Collateral.
3.5 Name;
Legal Status.
(a)
Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender, Debtor will
not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive
office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it
has
one, (b) if Debtor does not have an organizational identification number and
later obtains one, Debtor shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational
identification number, and (c) Debtor will not change its type of organization
or jurisdiction of organization.

jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a)
indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of Debtor or words of similar effect,
regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls
within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC or such other jurisdiction, or (ii)
as
being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) contain any
other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency
of filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including
whether Debtor is an organization, the type of organization and any state or
federal organization identification number issued to Debtor. Debtor agrees
to
furnish any such information to Lender promptly upon written
request.
ARTICLE
III
AGREEMENTS
OF DEBTOR
From
and
after the date of this Security Agreement, and until all of the Obligations
are
paid in full, Debtor shall:
3.1 Sale
of Collateral. Not
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of Collateral or any interest
therein, except as provided for in the Loan Agreement and for sales of Inventory
in the ordinary course of business.
3.2 Maintenance
of Security Interest.
(a) At
the
expense of Debtor, defend the Security Interest against any and all claims
of
any Person adverse to Lender (but only to the extent the claim of such Person
is
subordinate or junior to the Security Interest of Lender) and take such action
and execute such financing statements and other documents as Lender may from
time to time reasonably request in writing to maintain the perfected status
of
the Security Interest. Debtor shall not further encumber or grant a security
interest in any of the Collateral except as provided for in the Loan
Agreement.
(b) Debtor
further agrees to take any other commercially reasonable action reasonably
requested in writing by Lender if necessary to ensure the attachment, perfection
and priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce its security interest
in
any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (i) executing,
delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the UCC, to the extent, if any, that Debtor’s signature
thereon is required therefor, (ii) complying with any provision of any
statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if
compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or
priority of, or ability of Lender to enforce, its security interest in such
Collateral, (iii) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the
UCC
(to the extent applicable) or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC
jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction, (iv)
obtaining waivers from landlords where any material portion of the tangible
Collateral is located in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender,
and (v) executing such documents and cooperating with the Lender and any
third-party to allow Lender to obtain control of any Collateral consisting
of
deposit accounts or investment property.
3.3 Locations.
Give
Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of Debtor’s intention to
relocate any of the Collateral (other than Inventory in transit) or any of
the
records relating to the Collateral from the locations listed on Schedule
1
attached
to this Security Agreement, in which event Schedule
1
shall be
deemed amended to include the new location. Any additional filings or refilings
requested in writing by Lender as a result of any such relocation in order
to
maintain the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be at Debtor’s
expense.
3.4 Insurance.
Maintain insurance (including, without limitation, commercial general liability
and property insurance) with respect to the Collateral consisting of tangible
personal property in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with
responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required
by
any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in
similar businesses similarly situated. If requested in writing by Lender, and
if
the existing third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss
payee, Debtor will obtain lender’s loss payable endorsements on applicable
insurance policies in favor of Lender and will provide to Lender certificates
of
such insurance or copies thereof. If such request is made, and if the existing
third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss payee, Debtor
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each insurer to agree, by
endorsement on the policy or policies or certificates of insurance issued by
it
or by independent instrument furnished to Lender, that such insurer will give
thirty (30) days written notice to Lender before such policy will be altered
or
canceled. No settlement of any insurance claim shall be made without Lender’s
prior consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or
delayed. In the event of any insured loss, Debtor shall promptly notify Lender
thereof in writing, and, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be
continuing, Debtor hereby authorizes and directs any insurer concerned to make
payment of such loss directly to Lender as its interest may appear. Lender
is
authorized, in the name and on behalf of Debtor, to make proof of loss and
to
adjust, compromise and collect, in such manner and amounts as it reasonably
shall determine, all claims under all policies; and Debtor agrees to sign,
on
written demand of Lender, all receipts, vouchers, releases and other instruments
which may be necessary in aid of this authorization. After an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any insurance from loss,
theft, or damage to the Collateral shall be held in a segregated account
established by Lender and disbursed and applied at the discretion of Lender,
either in reduction of the Obligations or applied toward the repair, restoration
or replacement of the Collateral.
3.5 Name;
Legal Status.
(a)
Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender, Debtor will
not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive
office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it
has
one, (b) if Debtor does not have an organizational identification number and
later obtains one, Debtor shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational
identification number, and (c) Debtor will not change its type of organization
or jurisdiction of organization.
ARTICLE
IV
RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES
4.1 Right
to Cure.
In case
of failure by Debtor after receipt of written notice from Lender to procure
or
maintain insurance, or to pay any fees, assessments, charges or taxes (subject
to Debtor’s right to contest in good faith, such assessments, charges or taxes)
arising with respect to the Collateral, Lender shall have the right, but shall
not be obligated, to effect such insurance or pay such fees, assessments,
charges or taxes, as the case may be, and, in that event, the cost thereof
shall
be payable by Debtor to Lender immediately upon demand, together with interest
at an annual rate of 8% from the date of disbursement by Lender to the date
of
payment by Debtor. If Lender effects any insurance on behalf of Debtor, Debtor
thereafter may cancel such insurance so effected after providing Lender with
evidence that Debtor or another secured party having cure rights similar to
those set forth in this Section 4.1 has obtained insurance as required by this
Security Agreement..
4.2 Rights
of Parties.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition
to
all the rights and remedies provided in the Transaction Documents or in
Article 9 of the UCC and any other applicable law, Lender may (but is under
no obligation so to do):
(a) require
Debtor to assemble the Collateral at a place designated by Lender, which is
reasonably convenient to the parties; and
(b) take
possession of all Collateral and of Debtor’s records pertaining to all
Collateral that are necessary to properly administer and control the Collateral
or the handling and collection of Collateral, and sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner in whole or in
part, at public or private sale, on or off the premises of Debtor;
and
(c) collect
any and all money due or to become due and enforce in Debtor’s name all rights
with respect to the Collateral; and
(d) settle,
adjust or compromise any dispute with respect to any Account; and
(e) receive
and open mail addressed to Debtor; and
(f) on
behalf of Debtor, endorse checks, notes, drafts, money orders, instruments
or
other evidences of payment.
4.3 Power
of Attorney.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor does
hereby constitute and appoint Lender as Debtor’s true and lawful attorney with
full power of substitution for Debtor in Debtor’s name, place and stead for the
purposes of performing any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement
and taking any action and executing any instrument which Lender may deem
necessary to perform any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement,
which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall not
terminate until the Obligations are paid in full.
4.4 Right
to Collect Accounts.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and without
limiting Debtor’s obligations under the Transaction Documents: (a) Debtor
authorizes Lender to notify any and all debtors on the Accounts to make payment
directly to Lender (or to such place as Lender may direct); (b) Debtor agrees,
on written notice from Lender, to deliver to Lender promptly after receipt
thereof, in the form in which received (together with all necessary
endorsements), all payments received by Debtor on account of any Account; and
(c) Lender may, at its option, apply all such payments against the Obligations
or remit all or part of such payments to Debtor.
4.5 Reasonable
Notice.
Written
notice, when required by law, sent in accordance with the provisions of Section
12.6 of the Loan Agreement and given at least ten (10) business days (counting
the day of sending) before the date of a proposed disposition of the Collateral
shall be reasonable notice.
4.6 Limitation
on Duties Regarding Collateral. The
sole duty of Lender with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the
UCC
or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with
similar property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents, shall be liable for failure to demand, collect
or
realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be
under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the
request of Debtor or otherwise.
4.7 Lock
Box; Collateral Account.
This
Section 4.7 shall be effective only upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default. If Lender so requests in writing, Debtor
will direct each of its debtors on the Accounts to make payments due under
the
relevant Account or chattel paper directly to a special lock box to be under
the
control of Lender. Debtor hereby authorizes and directs Lender to deposit into
a
special collateral account to be established and maintained by Lender all
checks, drafts and cash payments received in said lock box. All deposits in
said
collateral account shall constitute proceeds of Collateral and shall not
constitute payment of any Obligation until so applied. At its option, Lender
may, at any time, apply finally collected funds on deposit in said collateral
account to the payment of the Obligations, in the order of application set
forth
in Section 4.8, or permit Debtor to withdraw all or any part of the balance
on
deposit in said collateral account. If a collateral account is so established,
Debtor agrees that it will promptly deliver to Lender, for deposit into said
collateral account, all payments on Accounts and chattel paper received by
it.
All such payments shall be delivered to Lender in the form received (except
for
Debtor’s endorsement where necessary). Until so deposited, all payments on
Accounts and chattel paper received by Debtor shall be held in trust by Debtor
for and as the property of Lender and shall not be commingled with any funds
or
property of Debtor.
4.8 Application
of Proceeds.
Lender
shall apply the proceeds resulting from any sale or disposition of the
Collateral in the following order:
(a) to
the
reasonable costs of any sale or other disposition;
(b) to
the
reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any sale or other
disposition, including attorneys’ fees;
(c) to
the
payment of the Obligations then due and owing in any order selected by Lender
in
a commercially reasonable manner; and
(d) to
Debtor.
4.9 Other
Remedies.
No
remedy herein conferred upon Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given under this Security Agreement and the
Transaction Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising
any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
ARTICLE
V

AGREEMENTS

are
paid in full, Debtor shall:
3.1 Sale
of Collateral. Not
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of Collateral or any interest
therein, except as provided for in the Loan Agreement and for sales of Inventory
in the ordinary course of business.
3.2 Maintenance
of Security Interest.
(a) At
the
expense of Debtor, defend the Security Interest against any and all claims
of
any Person adverse to Lender (but only to the extent the claim of such Person
is
subordinate or junior to the Security Interest of Lender) and take such action
and execute such financing statements and other documents as Lender may from
time to time reasonably request in writing to maintain the perfected status
of
the Security Interest. Debtor shall not further encumber or grant a security
interest in any of the Collateral except as provided for in the Loan

requested in writing by Lender if necessary to ensure the attachment, perfection
and priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce its security interest

3.4 Insurance.
Maintain insurance (including, without limitation, commercial general liability
and property insurance) with respect to the Collateral consisting of tangible
personal property in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with
responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required
by
any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in
similar businesses similarly situated. If requested in writing by Lender, and
if
the existing third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss
payee, Debtor will obtain lender’s loss payable endorsements on applicable

payment of such loss directly to Lender as its interest may appear. Lender

adjust, compromise and collect, in such manner and amounts as it reasonably
shall determine, all claims under all policies; and Debtor agrees to sign,
on
written demand of Lender, all receipts, vouchers, releases and other instruments
which may be necessary in aid of this authorization. After an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any insurance from loss,
theft, or damage to the Collateral shall be held in a segregated account
established by Lender and disbursed and applied at the discretion of Lender,
either in reduction of the Obligations or applied toward the repair, restoration
or replacement of the Collateral.
3.5 Name;
Legal Status.
(a)
Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender, Debtor will
not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive
office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it
has
one, (b) if Debtor does not have an organizational identification number and
later obtains one, Debtor shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational
identification number, and (c) Debtor will not change its type of organization
or jurisdiction of organization.

RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES
4.1 Right
to Cure.
In case
of failure by Debtor after receipt of written notice from Lender to procure
or
maintain insurance, or to pay any fees, assessments, charges or taxes (subject
to Debtor’s right to contest in good faith, such assessments, charges or taxes)
arising with respect to the Collateral, Lender shall have the right, but shall
not be obligated, to effect such insurance or pay such fees, assessments,
charges or taxes, as the case may be, and, in that event, the cost thereof
shall
be payable by Debtor to Lender immediately upon demand, together with interest
at an annual rate of 8% from the date of disbursement by Lender to the date
of
payment by Debtor. If Lender effects any insurance on behalf of Debtor, Debtor
thereafter may cancel such insurance so effected after providing Lender with
evidence that Debtor or another secured party having cure rights similar to
those set forth in this Section 4.1 has obtained insurance as required by this
Security Agreement..
4.2 Rights
of Parties.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition
to
all the rights and remedies provided in the Transaction Documents or in
Article 9 of the UCC and any other applicable law, Lender may (but is under
no obligation so to do):
(a) require
Debtor to assemble the Collateral at a place designated by Lender, which is
reasonably convenient to the parties; and
(b) take
possession of all Collateral and of Debtor’s records pertaining to all
Collateral that are necessary to properly administer and control the Collateral
or the handling and collection of Collateral, and sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner in whole or in
part, at public or private sale, on or off the premises of Debtor;
and
(c) collect
any and all money due or to become due and enforce in Debtor’s name all rights
with respect to the Collateral; and
(d) settle,
adjust or compromise any dispute with respect to any Account; and
(e) receive
and open mail addressed to Debtor; and
(f) on
behalf of Debtor, endorse checks, notes, drafts, money orders, instruments
or
other evidences of payment.
4.3 Power
of Attorney.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor does
hereby constitute and appoint Lender as Debtor’s true and lawful attorney with
full power of substitution for Debtor in Debtor’s name, place and stead for the
purposes of performing any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement
and taking any action and executing any instrument which Lender may deem
necessary to perform any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement,
which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall not
terminate until the Obligations are paid in full.
4.4 Right
to Collect Accounts.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and without
limiting Debtor’s obligations under the Transaction Documents: (a) Debtor
authorizes Lender to notify any and all debtors on the Accounts to make payment
directly to Lender (or to such place as Lender may direct); (b) Debtor agrees,
on written notice from Lender, to deliver to Lender promptly after receipt
thereof, in the form in which received (together with all necessary
endorsements), all payments received by Debtor on account of any Account; and
(c) Lender may, at its option, apply all such payments against the Obligations
or remit all or part of such payments to Debtor.
4.5 Reasonable
Notice.
Written
notice, when required by law, sent in accordance with the provisions of Section
12.6 of the Loan Agreement and given at least ten (10) business days (counting
the day of sending) before the date of a proposed disposition of the Collateral
shall be reasonable notice.
4.6 Limitation
on Duties Regarding Collateral. The
sole duty of Lender with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the
UCC
or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with
similar property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents, shall be liable for failure to demand, collect
or
realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be
under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the
request of Debtor or otherwise.
4.7 Lock
Box; Collateral Account.
This
Section 4.7 shall be effective only upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default. If Lender so requests in writing, Debtor
will direct each of its debtors on the Accounts to make payments due under
the
relevant Account or chattel paper directly to a special lock box to be under
the
control of Lender. Debtor hereby authorizes and directs Lender to deposit into
a
special collateral account to be established and maintained by Lender all
checks, drafts and cash payments received in said lock box. All deposits in
said
collateral account shall constitute proceeds of Collateral and shall not
constitute payment of any Obligation until so applied. At its option, Lender
may, at any time, apply finally collected funds on deposit in said collateral
account to the payment of the Obligations, in the order of application set
forth
in Section 4.8, or permit Debtor to withdraw all or any part of the balance
on
deposit in said collateral account. If a collateral account is so established,
Debtor agrees that it will promptly deliver to Lender, for deposit into said
collateral account, all payments on Accounts and chattel paper received by
it.
All such payments shall be delivered to Lender in the form received (except
for
Debtor’s endorsement where necessary). Until so deposited, all payments on
Accounts and chattel paper received by Debtor shall be held in trust by Debtor
for and as the property of Lender and shall not be commingled with any funds
or
property of Debtor.
4.8 Application
of Proceeds.
Lender
shall apply the proceeds resulting from any sale or disposition of the
Collateral in the following order:
(a) to
the
reasonable costs of any sale or other disposition;
(b) to
the
reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any sale or other
disposition, including attorneys’ fees;
(c) to
the
payment of the Obligations then due and owing in any order selected by Lender
in
a commercially reasonable manner; and
(d) to
Debtor.
4.9 Other
Remedies.
No
remedy herein conferred upon Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given under this Security Agreement and the
Transaction Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising
any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
ARTICLE
V

same
counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of

and execute such financing statements and other documents as Lender may from
time to time reasonably request in writing to maintain the perfected status
of
the Security Interest. Debtor shall not further encumber or grant a security
interest in any of the Collateral except as provided for in the Loan
Agreement.
(b) Debtor
further agrees to take any other commercially reasonable action reasonably
requested in writing by Lender if necessary to ensure the attachment, perfection
and priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce its security interest
in
any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (i) executing,
delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the UCC, to the extent, if any, that Debtor’s signature
thereon is required therefor, (ii) complying with any provision of any
statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if
compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or
priority of, or ability of Lender to enforce, its security interest in such
Collateral, (iii) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the
UCC
(to the extent applicable) or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC
jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction, (iv)
obtaining waivers from landlords where any material portion of the tangible
Collateral is located in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender,
and (v) executing such documents and cooperating with the Lender and any
third-party to allow Lender to obtain control of any Collateral consisting
of
deposit accounts or investment property.
3.3 Locations.
Give
Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of Debtor’s intention to
relocate any of the Collateral (other than Inventory in transit) or any of
the
records relating to the Collateral from the locations listed on Schedule
1
attached
to this Security Agreement, in which event Schedule
1
shall be
deemed amended to include the new location. Any additional filings or refilings
requested in writing by Lender as a result of any such relocation in order
to
maintain the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be at Debtor’s
expense.
3.4 Insurance.
Maintain insurance (including, without limitation, commercial general liability
and property insurance) with respect to the Collateral consisting of tangible
personal property in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with
responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required
by
any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is
carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in
similar businesses similarly situated. If requested in writing by Lender, and
if
the existing third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss
payee, Debtor will obtain lender’s loss payable endorsements on applicable
insurance policies in favor of Lender and will provide to Lender certificates
of
such insurance or copies thereof. If such request is made, and if the existing
third-party loss payee agrees to relinquish its position as loss payee, Debtor
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each insurer to agree, by
endorsement on the policy or policies or certificates of insurance issued by
it
or by independent instrument furnished to Lender, that such insurer will give
thirty (30) days written notice to Lender before such policy will be altered
or
canceled. No settlement of any insurance claim shall be made without Lender’s
prior consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or
delayed. In the event of any insured loss, Debtor shall promptly notify Lender
thereof in writing, and, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be
continuing, Debtor hereby authorizes and directs any insurer concerned to make
payment of such loss directly to Lender as its interest may appear. Lender
is
authorized, in the name and on behalf of Debtor, to make proof of loss and
to
adjust, compromise and collect, in such manner and amounts as it reasonably
shall determine, all claims under all policies; and Debtor agrees to sign,
on
written demand of Lender, all receipts, vouchers, releases and other instruments
which may be necessary in aid of this authorization. After an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any insurance from loss,
theft, or damage to the Collateral shall be held in a segregated account
established by Lender and disbursed and applied at the discretion of Lender,
either in reduction of the Obligations or applied toward the repair, restoration
or replacement of the Collateral.
3.5 Name;
Legal Status.
(a)
Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender, Debtor will
not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive
office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it
has
one, (b) if Debtor does not have an organizational identification number and
later obtains one, Debtor shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational
identification number, and (c) Debtor will not change its type of organization
or jurisdiction of organization.

RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES
4.1 Right
to Cure.
In case
of failure by Debtor after receipt of written notice from Lender to procure
or
maintain insurance, or to pay any fees, assessments, charges or taxes (subject
to Debtor’s right to contest in good faith, such assessments, charges or taxes)
arising with respect to the Collateral, Lender shall have the right, but shall
not be obligated, to effect such insurance or pay such fees, assessments,
charges or taxes, as the case may be, and, in that event, the cost thereof
shall
be payable by Debtor to Lender immediately upon demand, together with interest
at an annual rate of 8% from the date of disbursement by Lender to the date
of
payment by Debtor. If Lender effects any insurance on behalf of Debtor, Debtor
thereafter may cancel such insurance so effected after providing Lender with
evidence that Debtor or another secured party having cure rights similar to
those set forth in this Section 4.1 has obtained insurance as required by this
Security Agreement..
4.2 Rights
of Parties.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition
to
all the rights and remedies provided in the Transaction Documents or in
Article 9 of the UCC and any other applicable law, Lender may (but is under
no obligation so to do):
(a) require
Debtor to assemble the Collateral at a place designated by Lender, which is
reasonably convenient to the parties; and
(b) take
possession of all Collateral and of Debtor’s records pertaining to all
Collateral that are necessary to properly administer and control the Collateral
or the handling and collection of Collateral, and sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner in whole or in
part, at public or private sale, on or off the premises of Debtor;
and
(c) collect
any and all money due or to become due and enforce in Debtor’s name all rights
with respect to the Collateral; and
(d) settle,
adjust or compromise any dispute with respect to any Account; and
(e) receive
and open mail addressed to Debtor; and
(f) on
behalf of Debtor, endorse checks, notes, drafts, money orders, instruments
or
other evidences of payment.
4.3 Power
of Attorney.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor does
hereby constitute and appoint Lender as Debtor’s true and lawful attorney with
full power of substitution for Debtor in Debtor’s name, place and stead for the
purposes of performing any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement
and taking any action and executing any instrument which Lender may deem
necessary to perform any obligation of Debtor under this Security Agreement,
which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall not
terminate until the Obligations are paid in full.
4.4 Right
to Collect Accounts.
Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and without
limiting Debtor’s obligations under the Transaction Documents: (a) Debtor
authorizes Lender to notify any and all debtors on the Accounts to make payment
directly to Lender (or to such place as Lender may direct); (b) Debtor agrees,
on written notice from Lender, to deliver to Lender promptly after receipt
thereof, in the form in which received (together with all necessary
endorsements), all payments received by Debtor on account of any Account; and
(c) Lender may, at its option, apply all such payments against the Obligations
or remit all or part of such payments to Debtor.
4.5 Reasonable
Notice.
Written
notice, when required by law, sent in accordance with the provisions of Section
12.6 of the Loan Agreement and given at least ten (10) business days (counting
the day of sending) before the date of a proposed disposition of the Collateral
shall be reasonable notice.
4.6 Limitation
on Duties Regarding Collateral. The
sole duty of Lender with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the
UCC
or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with
similar property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents, shall be liable for failure to demand, collect
or
realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be
under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the
request of Debtor or otherwise.
4.7 Lock
Box; Collateral Account.
This
Section 4.7 shall be effective only upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default. If Lender so requests in writing, Debtor
will direct each of its debtors on the Accounts to make payments due under
the
relevant Account or chattel paper directly to a special lock box to be under
the
control of Lender. Debtor hereby authorizes and directs Lender to deposit into
a
special collateral account to be established and maintained by Lender all
checks, drafts and cash payments received in said lock box. All deposits in
said
collateral account shall constitute proceeds of Collateral and shall not
constitute payment of any Obligation until so applied. At its option, Lender
may, at any time, apply finally collected funds on deposit in said collateral
account to the payment of the Obligations, in the order of application set
forth
in Section 4.8, or permit Debtor to withdraw all or any part of the balance
on
deposit in said collateral account. If a collateral account is so established,
Debtor agrees that it will promptly deliver to Lender, for deposit into said
collateral account, all payments on Accounts and chattel paper received by
it.
All such payments shall be delivered to Lender in the form received (except
for
Debtor’s endorsement where necessary). Until so deposited, all payments on
Accounts and chattel paper received by Debtor shall be held in trust by Debtor
for and as the property of Lender and shall not be commingled with any funds
or
property of Debtor.
4.8 Application
of Proceeds.
Lender
shall apply the proceeds resulting from any sale or disposition of the
Collateral in the following order:
(a) to
the
reasonable costs of any sale or other disposition;
(b) to
the
reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any sale or other
disposition, including attorneys’ fees;
(c) to
the
payment of the Obligations then due and owing in any order selected by Lender
in
a commercially reasonable manner; and
(d) to
Debtor.
4.9 Other
Remedies.
No
remedy herein conferred upon Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given under this Security Agreement and the
Transaction Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising
any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
