know that any application or registration relating to any material Patent,
Trademark or Copyright (now or hereafter existing) may become abandoned or
dedicated, or of any adverse determination or development (including the
institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding
in
the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright
Office or any court) regarding the Grantor’s ownership of any material Patent,
Trademark or Copyright, its right to register the same, or to keep and maintain
the same.
(ii) In
no
event shall the Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee
or designee, file an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark
or Copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United
States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency without giving Second
Lien Agent prior written notice thereof, and, upon request of Second Lien Agent,
Grantor shall execute and deliver any and all Patent Security Agreements,
Copyright Security Agreements or Trademark Security Agreements as Second Lien
Agent may request to evidence Second Lien Agent’s Lien on such Patent, Trademark
or Copyright, and the General Intangibles of the Grantor relating thereto or
represented thereby.
(iii) Unless
Grantor shall reasonably determine that the applicable Patent, Trademark or
Copyright is not material to the conduct of its business or operations, the
Grantor shall take all actions necessary or reasonably requested by Second
Lien
Agent to maintain and pursue (in each case, in a manner consistent with
reasonable responsible business and legal practices) each application, to obtain
the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of the
Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights (now or hereafter existing), including the
filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of
noncontestability and opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings.
(iv) In
the
event that any material Patent, Trademark or Copyright Collateral is infringed
upon, or misappropriated or diluted by a third party, the Grantor shall, unless
Grantor shall reasonably determine that such Patent, Trademark or Copyright
Collateral is not material to the conduct of its business or operations,
promptly ▇▇▇ for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover
any
and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and shall
take such other actions as are commercially reasonable under the circumstances
to protect such Patent, Trademark or Copyright Collateral.
(d) Indemnification.
In
consideration of the execution and delivery of the Note Purchase Agreement,
each
Note Party agrees to indemnify and hold each Subordinated Note Purchaser and
each Subordinated Note Purchaser’s directors, Affiliates, and agents (for the
purposes of this section each is an “Indemnified
Party”)
harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, Subordinated Note
Obligations and liabilities arising out of or resulting from any or all of
(i)
this Security Agreement and (ii) the transactions contemplated by this Security
Agreement (including enforcement of this Security Agreement) in all cases,
except for claims, losses or liabilities to the extent resulting from an
Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The indemnification
provided for in this section is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any
other indemnification or insurance provided by any Note Party to any
Subordinated Note Purchaser.
-13-
(e) Compliance
with Terms of Accounts, etc.
In all
material respects, Grantor will perform and comply with all obligations in
respect of the Collateral and all other agreements to which it is a party or
by
which it is bound relating to the Collateral.
(f) Limitation
on Liens on Collateral.
Grantor
will not create, permit or suffer to exist, and Grantor will defend the
Collateral against, and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any
Lien on the Collateral except Permitted Encumbrances, and will defend the right,
title and interest of Second Lien Agent and Subordinated Note Purchasers in
and
to any of the Grantor’s rights under the Collateral against the claims and
demands of all Persons whomsoever, other than holders of Permitted
Encumbrances.
(g) Limitations
on Disposition.
Grantor
will not sell, license, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the
Collateral, or attempt or contract to do so except as permitted by the Note
Purchase Agreement.
(h) Further
Identification of Collateral.
Grantor
will, if so reasonably requested by Second Lien Agent, furnish to Second Lien
Agent, as often as Second Lien Agent requests, statements and schedules further
identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection
with the Collateral as Second Lien Agent may reasonably request, all in such
detail as Second Lien Agent may specify.
(i) Notices.
Grantor
will advise Second Lien Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any Lien
(other than Permitted Encumbrances) or material claim made or asserted against
any of the Collateral, and (ii) of the occurrence of any other event which
would
have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the Collateral or
on
the Liens created hereunder or under any other Note Document, other than the
creation or occurrence of a Permitted Encumbrance.
-14-
(j) No
Reincorporation.
Without
limiting the prohibitions on mergers involving the Grantor contained in the
Note
Purchase Agreement, Grantor shall not reincorporate or reorganize itself under
the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which it is
incorporated or organized as of the date hereof without ten (10) Business Days
prior written notice to Second Lien Agent.
(k) Terminations;
Amendments Not Authorized.
Grantor
acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or
amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement
without the prior written consent of Second Lien Agent and agrees that it will
not do so without the prior written consent of Second Lien Agent, subject to
the
Grantor's rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the Code.
(l) Authorized
Terminations.
Second
Lien Agent will promptly deliver to the Grantor for filing or authorize Grantor
to prepare and file termination statements and releases in accordance with
the
Note Purchase Agreement.
(m) New
Locations.
Upon
storing Inventory at any location other than those listed in Section
5.2.1
to the
Note Purchase Agreement, the Grantor shall make commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain, within ninety (90) days of storing Inventory at such location, a
duly
executed landlord consent permitting the Second Lien Agent to remove the
personal property of the Note Parties from such location.
6. COLLECTION
OF DIVIDENDS.
During
the term of this Security Agreement, Grantor is authorized to collect all
dividends, distributions, payments and other amounts that may be or become
payable on any of the Collateral so long as no Event of Default has occurred.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, the Second Lien Agent is authorized to collect all dividends,
distributions, payments or other amounts that may be or become payable on any
of
the Securities. Such amounts collected may, at the option of the Second Lien
Agent, be applied to the indebtedness secured hereby. The Second Lien Agent
shall be under no obligation to collect any such amounts.
7. VOTING
RIGHTS.
Subject
to the immediately following sentence, Grantor shall have the right, where
applicable, to vote the Collateral on all corporate questions, or otherwise
exercise such similar rights as may arise from the Collateral. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, such right shall, at the option of the Second Lien Agent, terminate
whereupon the Second Lien Agent may exercise all such rights. Grantor agrees
to
appoint the Second Lien Agent as its proxy for such purpose, and to execute
such
additional documents as are necessary to effect the same.
-15-
8. EXERCISE
OF OPTIONS.
In the
event that during the term of this Security Agreement subscription warrants
or
any other rights or options shall be issued in connection with the Collateral,
such warrants, rights and options shall constitute part of the Collateral.
If
such subscription warrants or other rights or options shall expire during the
term of this Security Agreement and Grantor has not elected to exercise such
warrants or options, the Second Lien Agent may elect (without any duty to do
so)
to exercise such warrants, rights and options at its own expense and to the
extent assignable, Grantor will assign his rights thereunder. All new equity
interests so acquired shall be subject to and held under the terms hereof as
Collateral.
9. SECOND
LIEN AGENT’S APPOINTMENT AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.
On
the
Closing Date, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Second Lien Agent a power
of
attorney (the “Power
of Attorney”)
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
A.
The
power of attorney granted pursuant to the Power of Attorney is a power coupled
with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Subordinated Note
Obligations have been paid in full. The powers conferred on Second Lien Agent,
for the benefit of the Subordinated Note Purchasers, under the Power of Attorney
are solely to protect Second Lien Agent’s interests (for the benefit of the
Subordinated Note Purchasers) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty
upon Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated Note Purchaser to exercise any such
powers. Second Lien Agent agrees that (a) except for the powers granted in
clause (h) of the Power of Attorney, it shall not exercise any power or
authority granted under the Power of Attorney unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, and (b) Second Lien Agent shall account to the
Grantors for any moneys received by Second Lien Agent in respect of any
foreclosure on or disposition of Collateral pursuant to the Power of Attorney
provided that except as set forth in Section
15
hereof,
none of Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated Note Purchaser shall have any
duty
as to any Collateral, and Second Lien Agent and Subordinated Note Purchasers
shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result
of
the exercise of such powers. NONE OF SECOND LIEN AGENT, SUBORDINATED NOTE
PURCHASERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES,
AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO GRANTOR FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE
TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES
ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS
FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, NOR FOR ANY PUNITIVE,
EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
-16-
10. REMEDIES:
RIGHTS UPON DEFAULT.
(a) In
addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security
Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the other Note Documents and under
any
other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the
Subordinated Note Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred
and
be continuing, Second Lien Agent may exercise all rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Grantor expressly agrees that in any such event Second Lien Agent, without
demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind
(except the notices specified in the Note Purchase Agreement or the notices
below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon Grantor or any
other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and other notices
are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code and
other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of the Grantor
where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process,
without first obtaining a final judgment or giving the Grantor or any other
Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on Second Lien Agent’s claim or
action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize
upon
the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license,
assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose
of
and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in
one
or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such
prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery
without assumption of any credit risk. Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated
Note Purchaser shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and,
to
the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase
for the benefit of the Subordinated Note Purchasers, the whole or any part
of
said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity
of redemption the Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and
continued from time to time with or without notice. Second Lien Agent shall
have
the right to conduct such sales on the Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall
have the right to use the Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or
times as Second Lien Agent deems necessary or advisable.
If
any
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantor further
agrees, at Second Lien Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it
available to Second Lien Agent at a place or places designated by Second Lien
Agent which are reasonably convenient to Second Lien Agent and the Grantor,
whether at the Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Until Second Lien Agent is able
to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, Second Lien Agent
shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the
extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or
its
value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Second Lien Agent. Second
Lien Agent shall have no obligation to the Grantor to maintain or preserve
the
rights of the Grantor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while
Collateral is in the possession of Second Lien Agent. Second Lien Agent may,
if
it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession
of
Collateral and to enforce any of Second Lien Agent’s remedies (for the benefit
of Subordinated Note Purchasers), with respect to such appointment without
prior
notice or hearing as to such appointment. Second Lien Agent shall apply the
net
proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization
or sale to the Subordinated Note Obligations as provided in the Note Purchase
Agreement, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the
payment by Second Lien Agent of any other amount required by any provision
of
law, need Second Lien Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantor.
To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Grantor waives all claims,
damages, and demands against Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated Note
Purchaser arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral
except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of
Second Lien Agent or such Subordinated Note Purchaser as finally determined
by a
court of competent jurisdiction. The Grantor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior
notice by Second Lien Agent of the time and place of any public sale or of
the
time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of
such matters. Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds
of
any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all
Subordinated Note Obligations, including any attorneys’ fees and other expenses
incurred by Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated Note Purchaser to collect
such
deficiency.
-17-
(b) Except
as
otherwise specifically provided herein, Grantor hereby waives presentment,
demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
(c) To
the
extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Second Lien Agent to exercise
remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Grantor acknowledges and agrees
that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Second Lien Agent in its
exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section
10
(i) to
fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Second Lien Agent
to
prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or
work
in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition,
(ii)
to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed
of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain
governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of
Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection
remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or
to
remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise
collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on
Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other
collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through
publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral
is
of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the
same business as the Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all
or
any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional
auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the
Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by
utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types
included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so,
or
that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale
rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as
title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit
enhancements to insure the Second Lien Agent against risks of loss, collection
or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Second Lien Agent a guaranteed
return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent
deemed appropriate by the Second Lien Agent, to obtain the services of other
brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist
the
Second Lien Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.
The
Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section
10(c)
is to
provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Second
Lien Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in the Second Lien Agent's
exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions
by the Second Lien Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely
on
account of not being indicated in this Section
10(c).
Without
limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section
10(c)
shall be
construed to grant any rights to the Grantor or to impose any duties on Second
Lien Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security
Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section
10(c).
-18-
(d) In
the
exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 10, neither the Second Lien Agent
nor the Subordinated Note Purchasers shall be required to make any demand upon,
or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the Grantor,
any
other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the
payment of the Subordinated Note Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of
their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct
or indirect guarantee thereof. Neither the Second Lien Agent nor the
Subordinated Note Purchasers shall be required to marshal the Collateral or
any
guarantee of the Subordinated Note Obligations or to resort to the Collateral
or
any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights
hereunder or under any other Note Document shall be cumulative. To the extent
it
may lawfully do so, the Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and
relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against
the Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated Note Purchaser, any valuation, stay,
appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights
or
defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this
provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the
judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale
conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise.
11. GRANT
OF LICENSE TO USE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL.
For the
purpose of enabling Second Lien Agent to exercise rights and remedies under
Section
10
hereof
(including, without limiting the terms of Section
10
hereof,
in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare
for
sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time
as
Second Lien Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and
remedies, the Grantor hereby grants to Second Lien Agent, for the benefit of
Subordinated Note Purchasers, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable
without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantor) to use or
license Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Grantor
and
use commercially reasonable efforts to sublicense any hereafter acquired
Intellectual Property and wherever the same may be located, and including in
such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be
recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the
compilation or printout thereof.
-19-
12. LIMITATION
ON SECOND LIEN AGENT’S AND SUBORDINATED NOTE PURCHASERS’ DUTY IN RESPECT OF
COLLATERAL.
Second
Lien Agent and each Subordinated Note Purchaser shall use reasonable care with
respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither Second
Lien Agent nor any Subordinated Note Purchaser shall have any other duty as
to
any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control
of
any agent or nominee of Second Lien Agent or such Subordinated Note Purchaser,
or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties
or any other rights pertaining thereto.
13. REINSTATEMENT.
This
Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be
effective should any petition be filed by or against the Grantor for liquidation
or reorganization, should the Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment
for
the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be
appointed for all or any significant part of the Grantor’s assets, and shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment and performance of the Subordinated Note Obligations, or any part
thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or
must
otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Subordinated Note
Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or
otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In
the
event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored
or
returned, the Subordinated Note Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed
reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned.
14. NOTICES.
Except
as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice,
demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall
or
may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or
whenever any of the parties desires to give and serve upon any other party
any
communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand,
request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in
writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided
for
in the Note Purchase Agreement.
15. SEVERABILITY.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be
interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but
if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid
under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of
such
prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement. This Security Agreement
is to be read, construed and applied together with the Note Purchase Agreement
and the other Note Documents which, taken together, set forth the complete
understanding and agreement of Second Lien Agent, Subordinated Note Purchasers
and Grantor with respect to the matters referred to herein and
therein.
-20-
16. NO
WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.
Neither
Second Lien Agent nor any Subordinated Note Purchaser shall by any act, delay,
omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies
hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Second
Lien
Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Second Lien
Agent of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Second Lien Agent would
otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay
in exercising on the part of Second Lien Agent or any Subordinated Note
Purchaser, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently,
and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None of the
terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified
or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Second Lien
Agent and Grantor.
17. LIMITATION
BY LAW.
All
rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised
only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable
provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended
to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be
controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not
render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part,
or
not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any
applicable law
18. TERMINATION
OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT.
Subject
to Section
10
hereof,
this Security Agreement shall terminate when the Subordinated Note Obligations
are paid in full.
19. SUCCESSORS
AND ASSIGNS.
This
Security Agreement and all obligations of Grantor hereunder shall be binding
upon the successors and assigns of the Grantor (including any
debtor-in-possession on behalf of the Grantor) and shall, together with the
rights and remedies of Second Lien Agent, for the benefit of Subordinated Note
Purchasers, hereunder, inure to the benefit of Second Lien Agent and
Subordinated Note Purchasers, all future holders of any instrument evidencing
any of the Subordinated Note Obligations and their respective successors and
assigns permitted under the Note Purchase Agreement. No sales of participations,
other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement
governing or instrument evidencing the Subordinated Note Obligations or any
portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted
to Second Lien Agent, for the benefit of Subordinated Note Purchasers,
hereunder. Grantor may not assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer
any
interest in or obligation under this Security Agreement.
20. COUNTERPARTS.
This
Security Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate counterparts,
each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one agreement. This
Security Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile or,
if
approved in writing by Second Lien Agent, electronic means, all of which shall
be equally valid.
-21-
21. GOVERNING
LAW.
EXCEPT
AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS, IN ALL
RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE,
THIS
SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED
BY,
AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK
APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE, AND ANY APPLICABLE
LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THE GRANTOR HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES
THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, CITY OF NEW YORK,
NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS
OR
DISPUTES BETWEEN GRANTOR, SECOND LIEN AGENT AND SUBORDINATED NOTE PURCHASERS
PERTAINING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS OR
TO
ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF
THE
OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS, PROVIDED,
THAT
SECOND LIEN AGENT, SUBORDINATED NOTE PURCHASERS AND GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGE THAT
ANY
APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF
NEW
YORK COUNTY, AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER,
NOTHING
IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE SECOND LIEN AGENT
FROM
BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE
ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE
A
JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF SECOND LIEN AGENT. GRANTOR EXPRESSLY
SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT
COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH
IT
MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR
FORUM NON CONVENIENS
AND
HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED
APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE
SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND
AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE
BY
REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO GRANTOR AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH
ON
ANNEX
I
TO THIS
AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER
OF
ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER
POSTAGE PREPAID.
22. WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL.
BECAUSE
DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST
QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE
PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION
RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATING HERETO
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 RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT,
OR OTHERWISE, AMONG SECOND LIEN AGENT, SUBORDINATED NOTE PURCHASERS, AND GRANTOR
ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP
ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER
NOTE
DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.
-22-
23. SECTION
TITLES.
The
Section titles contained in this Security Agreement are and shall be without
substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of
the
agreement between the parties hereto.
24. NO
STRICT CONSTRUCTION.
The
parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of
this
Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or
interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be construed as if drafted
jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise
favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions
of this Security Agreement.
25. ADVICE
OF COUNSEL.
Each of
the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed this
Security Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Section
21
and
Section
22,
with
its counsel.
26. BENEFIT
OF SUBORDINATED NOTE PURCHASERS.
All
Liens granted or contemplated hereby shall be for the benefit of Subordinated
Note Purchasers, and all proceeds or payments realized from Collateral in
accordance herewith shall be applied to the Subordinated Note Obligations in
accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement.
-23-

WITNESS WHEREOF,

A
POWER
OF ATTORNEY
This
Power of Attorney is executed and delivered by Encompass
Group Affiliates, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Encompass Group Affiliates,
Inc., a Florida corporation, SpectruCell, Inc., a Delaware corporation, ▇▇▇▇▇▇
Street Investments, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Cyber-Test, Inc. a Delaware
corporation, Tritronics, Inc., a Maryland corporation and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
Inc., a
Florida
corporation
(each a
“Grantor”)
to
Sankaty Advisors, LLC (hereinafter referred to as “Attorney”),
as
Second Lien Agent for the benefit of Subordinated Note Purchasers, under the
Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement and the Amended and Restated
Security Agreement, both dated as of August 1, 2008, and other related documents
(the “Note
Documents”).
No
person to whom this Power of Attorney is presented, as authority for Attorney
to
take any action or actions contemplated hereby, shall be required to inquire
into or seek confirmation from Grantor as to the authority of Attorney to take
any action described below, or as to the existence of or fulfillment of any
condition to this Power of Attorney, which is intended to grant to Attorney
unconditionally the authority to take and perform the actions contemplated
herein, and Grantor irrevocably waives any right to commence any suit or action,
in law or equity, against any person or entity which acts in reliance upon
or
acknowledges the authority granted under this Power of Attorney. The power
of
attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest, and may not be revoked
or
canceled by Grantor without Attorney’ s written consent until the Grantor’s
obligations under the Note Documents are paid in full. Attorney shall exercise
this Power of Attorney subject to and consistent with the terms of the Note
Documents and this Power of Attorney; provided that the foregoing statement
shall bind Attorney only and no person or entity acting in reliance upon or
acknowledging the authority granted under this Power of Attorney shall be
responsible for ascertaining whether Attorney’s actions are consistent with such
terms.
Grantor
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Attorney (and all officers,
employees or agents designated by Attorney), with full power of substitution,
as
Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and
authority in the place and stead of Grantor and in the name of Grantor or in
its
own name, from time to time in Attorney’s discretion, until the Grantor’s
obligations under the Note Documents are paid in full, to take any and all
appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and
instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes
of
the Note Documents and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Grantor hereby grants to Attorney the power and right, on behalf of Grantor,
without notice to or assent by Grantor, and at any time, to do the following:
(a) change the mailing address of Grantor, open a post office box on behalf
of
Grantor, open mail for Grantor, and ask, demand, collect, give acquittances
and
receipts for, take possession of, endorse any invoices, freight or express
bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors,
assignments, verifications, and notices in connection with any property of
Grantor; (b) effect any repairs to any asset of Grantor, or continue or obtain
any insurance and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and costs
thereof, and make, settle and adjust all claims under such policies of
insurance, and make all determinations and decisions with respect to such
policies; (c) pay or discharge any taxes, liens, security interests, or other
encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against Grantor or its property;
(d) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Grantor if Grantor
does not defend such suit, action or proceeding or if Attorney believes that
Grantor is not pursuing such defense in a manner that will maximize the recovery
to Attorney, and settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action, or proceeding
described above and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases
as Attorney may deem appropriate; (e) file or prosecute any claim, litigation,
suit or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction or before any
arbitrator, or take any other action otherwise deemed appropriate by Attorney
for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due to Grantor whenever
payable and to enforce any other right in respect of Grantor’s property; (f)
cause the certified public accountants then engaged by Grantor to prepare and
deliver to Attorney at any time and from time to time, promptly upon Attorney’s
request, the following reports: (1) a reconciliation of all accounts, (2) an
aging of all accounts, (3) trial balances, (4) test verifications of such
accounts as Attorney may request, and (5) the results of each physical
verification of inventory; (g) communicate in its own name with any party to
any
Contract with regard to the assignment of the right, title and interest of
the
Grantor in and under the Contracts and other matters relating thereto; (h)
to
file such financing statements with respect to the Security Agreement, with
or
without Grantor's signature, or to file a photocopy of the Security Agreement
in
substitution for a financing statement, as the Second Lien Agent may deem
appropriate and to execute in Grantor's name such financing statements and
amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require the Grantor's
signature; and (i) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in any
Note
Document, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance
or
transfer with respect to the Collateral and to otherwise direct such sale or
resale, all as though Attorney were the absolute owner of the property of
Grantor for all purposes, and to do, at Attorney’s option and Grantor’s expense,
at any time or from time to time, all acts and other things that Attorney
reasonably deems necessary to perfect, preserve, or realize upon Grantor’s
property or assets and Attorney’s Liens thereon, all as fully and effectively as
Grantor might do. Grantor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law,
all
that said Attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue
hereof.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, this Power of Attorney is executed by Grantor pursuant to
the
authority of its board of directors this 1st day of August, 2008.
