ARTICLE
IV
COVENANTS
Grantor
hereby covenants and agrees that, so long as this Security Agreement shall
remain in effect, Grantor agrees to the following:
Section
4.1. As
to
Receivables.
(a) Grantor
shall keep its place(s) of business and its chief executive office and the
office(s) where it keeps its books and records (including those concerning
the
Receivables) and all original copies of the Agreements located, in each case,
at
its address specified in Schedule
I,
or,
upon 30 days' prior written notice to Grantee, at such other locations in a
jurisdiction where all actions required by the first sentence of Section 4.4
shall have been taken with respect to the Receivables and the License
Agreements; not change its name or its state or place of incorporation or
organization except upon 30 days' prior written notice to Grantee; and hold
and
preserve such books and records.
(b) Except
as
otherwise provided in this subsection (b), until an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Grantor shall continue to collect, at its own
expense, all amounts due or to become due Grantor under the Agreements. In
connection with such collections, provided no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Grantor may take (and, at Grantee's direction,
shall
take) such action as Grantor may deem necessary or advisable to enforce
collection of the Agreements. At any time after an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, Grantee shall have the right to notify the account debtors
or
obligors under any Receivables of the security interest of Grantee in such
Receivables to Grantee and to direct such account debtors or obligors to make
payment to Grantee of any amounts due or to become due thereunder and enforce
collection of any of the Receivables by suit or otherwise and surrender, release
or exchange all or any part thereof, or adjust, settle or compromise or extend
or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any
indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby. If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, upon the request of Grantee, Grantor will, at its
own expense, notify any parties obligated on any of the Receivables to make
payment to Grantee of any amounts due or to become due thereunder, and in such
event, Grantee is authorized to endorse, in the name of Grantor, any item
representing any payment on or other proceeds of any of the Receivables.
(c) After
delivery to Grantor by Grantee of a notice that an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing: (i) all amounts and proceeds (including Instruments)
received by Grantor in respect of any Receivables shall be received in trust
for
the benefit of Grantee hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of
Grantor, and shall be forthwith paid over to Grantee in the same form as so
received (with any necessary endorsements) to be held as cash collateral and
applied as provided by this Security Agreement; and (ii) Grantor shall not
adjust, settle, or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable, or
release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any
credit or discount thereon.
7
(d) After
the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (A) Grantee may
in
its own name or in the name of others communicate with account debtors in order
to verify with them to Grantee's reasonable satisfaction the existence, amount
and terms of any Receivables and (B) Grantee shall have the right, at Grantor's
expense, to make test verifications of the Receivables in any reasonable manner
and through any medium that it considers advisable, and Grantor agrees to
furnish all such assistance as Grantee may reasonably require in connection
therewith.
Section
4.2. Insurance.
Grantor
will maintain or cause to be maintained at all times insurance against loss
or
damage sufficient to cover all the Collateral that are of an insurable nature
to
the same extent assets of a similar character are usually so insured by
companies similarly situated and owning like assets, with insurers believed
by
Grantor to be responsible and reputable. If an Event of Default exists at the
time any insurance proceeds relating to the Collateral are received, all such
proceeds shall be paid to Grantee for application in accordance with the terms
and conditions of this Security Agreement.
Section
4.3. Intellectual Property.
Grantor
shall concurrently herewith deliver to Grantee the Patent Security Agreement
and
all other documents, instruments and other items as may be necessary for Grantee
to file such agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark Office
and
any similar domestic or foreign office, department or agency. If, before the
Obligations are paid in full, Grantor obtains any new Intellectual Property
or
rights thereto or becomes entitled to the benefit of any Intellectual Property
not listed on the schedules to each security agreement, Grantor shall give
to
Grantee prompt written notice thereof, and shall amend the respective security
agreement to include any such new Intellectual Property. Grantor shall: (a)
preserve and maintain all rights in the Intellectual Property; and (b) upon
and
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, use its best efforts to obtain
any
consents, waivers or agreements necessary to enable Grantor to exercise its
remedies with respect to the Intellectual Property. Grantor shall not abandon
any right to file a patent or trademark application relating to the Intellectual
Property nor shall Grantor abandon any pending patent or trademark application
or patent, trademark or copyright (including without limitation any Patents
or
Patent Licenses) without the prior written consent of Grantee.
Section
4.4. Transfers
and Other Liens.
Grantor
shall not:
(a) grant
a
security interest in the Collateral that in any way conflicts with Grantee's
security interest pursuant to this Security Agreement or any of Grantee's rights
under this Security Agreement, including without limitation, the exercise of
remedies hereunder; or
(b) sell,
assign (by operation of law or otherwise), lease, transfer or otherwise dispose
of any of, or grant any Person an option with respect to, the Collateral.
8
Section
4.5. Further
Assurances.
Grantor
agrees that, from time to time at its own cost and expense, Grantor will
promptly execute and deliver and will cause to be executed and delivered all
further instruments, assignments, notices, agreements and documents, including,
without limitation, financing and continuation statements, and will take all
further action and will cause all further action to be taken, that may be
reasonably necessary or desirable, or that Grantee may reasonably request,
in
order to create, preserve, perfect and protect any security interest granted
or
purported to be granted hereby and the priority thereof or to enable Grantee
to
exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any
Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing Grantor
will:
(a) if
any
Collateral shall be evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument or
negotiable document, deliver and pledge to Grantee hereunder such promissory
note, instrument or negotiable document duly endorsed and accompanied by duly
executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Grantee;
(b) execute
and file, record or register such financing or continuation statements, or
amendments thereto, and such other instruments, assignments or notices, as
may
be necessary or desirable, or as Grantee may request, in order to create,
preserve, perfect and protect the security interests and other rights granted
or
purported to be granted to Grantee;
(c) furnish
to Grantee, from time to time, statements and schedules further identifying
and
describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the
Collateral as Grantee may reasonably request, and all in reasonable detail;
and
(d) at
Grantee's request, appear in and defend any action or proceeding that may affect
Grantor's title to or Grantee's security interest in the
Collateral.
With
respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder,
Grantor hereby authorizes Grantee to file one or more financing or continuation
statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the
Collateral without the signature of Grantor where permitted by law. A carbon,
photographic, or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing
statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as
a
financing statement where permitted by law.
Section
4.6. General
Covenants.
Without
limiting any of the foregoing covenants, Grantor agrees (a) not to use or permit
any Collateral to be used unlawfully or in material violation of any provision
of this Security Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any applicable
statute, regulation or ordinance or any policy of insurance covering the
Collateral; and (b) to pay promptly when due all taxes, assessments, charges,
encumbrances and Liens now or hereafter imposed upon or affecting any
Collateral.

portion of the Collateral), paid such claim or obtained to Grantee's
satisfaction the release of the claim or Lien to which such notice relates.
Grantor agrees to reimburse Grantee upon demand for any costs and expenses,

acting as Grantor's attorney-in-fact hereunder, all of which costs and expenses

an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Grantee shall exercise the
rights and powers vested in it by this Security Agreement, and shall not be
liable (except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct) with respect
to
any action taken by it, or omitted to be taken by it, in accordance herewith.
Section
5.4. Reasonable
Care.
It
is
understood and agreed between the parties hereto that Grantee's duty with
respect to the custody, safekeeping, and physical preservation of the Collateral
in its possession should be to deal with it in the same manner as Grantee deals
with similar property for its own account; provided,
however,
that
Grantee shall not be required to make any presentment, demand, or protest,
or
give any notice, and need not take any action to preserve any rights against
any
other Person with respect to the Collateral.
ARTICLE
VI
REMEDIES
Section
6.1. Certain
Remedies.
If
any
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing:
(a) Grantee
may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights available
to it at law or in equity or otherwise, all the rights and remedies of a secured
party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
Collateral) and also may (i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees
that it will, at its expense and upon request of Grantee forthwith, assemble
all
or part of the Collateral as directed by Grantee and make it available to
Grantee at a place to be designated by Grantee that is reasonably convenient
to
both parties, (ii) exercise any and all rights and remedies of Grantor
under or in connection with the Collateral, (iii) withdraw all monies,
securities and other property in the Grantor accounts for application to the
Obligations, (iv) foreclose or otherwise enforce Grantee's security interest
in
any manner permitted by law or provided for in this Security Agreement,
(v) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any
part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any place
or
places for cash, on credit, or for future delivery, and upon such other terms
as
Grantee may deem commercially reasonable, (vi) recover from Grantor all
costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees,
incurred or paid by Grantee in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy
provided by this Security Agreement or by law, (vii) without notice or
demand of legal process, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Grantor,
enter into property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof,
and (viii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, prepare it for
disposition in any manner and to the extent Grantee deems appropriate;
provided,
however,
that
notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Grantee may sell or otherwise
dispose the Collateral or any portion thereof in its then condition without
any
preparation or processing. Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale
shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days' prior notice to Grantor of
the
time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale
is to
be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Grantee shall not be obligated
to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.
Grantee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement
at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice,
be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Upon any sale or
other disposition pursuant to this Security Agreement, Grantee shall have the
right to deliver, assign and transfer to grantee thereof the Collateral or
portion thereof and transfer to grantee thereof the Collateral or portion
thereof so sold or disposed of. Each grantee at any such sale or other
disposition (including Grantee) shall hold the Collateral free from any claim
or
right of whatever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of Grantor
and Grantor specifically waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights
of
redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any rule of law
or
statute now existing or hereafter adopted.
11
(b) All
cash
proceeds received by Grantee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or
other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied:
first,
to all
costs, fees and expenses incurred by Grantee; and second,
to the
Obligations. If any non-cash proceeds are received in connection with any sale
of Collateral, Grantee shall not apply such non-cash proceeds to the Obligations
unless and until such proceeds are converted to cash; provided,
however,
that if
such non-cash proceeds are not expected on the date of receipt thereof to be
converted to cash within one year after such date, Grantee shall nonetheless
use
commercially reasonable efforts to convert such non-cash proceeds to cash within
such one-year period. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by Grantee
after payment in full of all the Obligations shall be paid over to Grantor
or to
whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
ARTICLE
VII
MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS
Section
7.1. Amendments.
No
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement,
and no consent to any departure by Grantor herefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Grantee, and then
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for
the specific purpose for which given.
12
Section
7.2. Release
of Collateral.
If
any of
the Collateral shall be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by Grantor
in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement, then Grantee shall, at
Grantor's written request, promptly execute and deliver to Grantor (at the
sole
cost and expense of Grantor) such instruments or documents necessary and as
Grantor shall reasonably request to release the Liens created hereby on such
Collateral, including any necessary UCC amendment, termination statement or
partial termination statement.
Section

Section
7.4. Waiver;
Cumulative Remedies.
(a) No
failure to exercise and no delay in the exercise, on the part of Grantee, of
any
right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder and no course of dealing with
respect thereto shall impair such right, remedy, power or privilege or be
construed to or operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power
or privilege.
(b) Grantor
waives any right to require Grantee to proceed against any Person or to exhaust
any Collateral or to pursue any remedy in such Grantee's power.
(c) The
rights, powers and remedies of Grantee under this Security Agreement shall
be in
addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to Grantee by virtue of any
statute or rule of law, the Sale Agreement or any other agreement, all of which
rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised
successively or concurrently without impairing Grantee's security interest
in

under this Security Agreement without the prior written consent of
Grantee.

Security Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts,

of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said

instrument.
Section
7.7. Severability.
The
illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Security Agreement
or
any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect
or
impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Security Agreement or any instrument or agreement required
hereunder.

SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
