DEFAULT; REMEDIES; SUBSTITUTE COLLATERAL

REMEDIES.
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
(a) The Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Pledged Property,
in addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise
available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default
under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code
applies to the affected Pledged Property), and also may (i) take absolute
control of the Pledged Property, including, without limitation, transfer into
the Secured Party's name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the
extent the Secured Party has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive,
for the benefit of the Secured Party, all payments made thereon, give all
consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and otherwise act with
respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof, (ii) require the
Company to assemble all or part of the Pledged Property as directed by the
Secured Party and make it available to the Secured Party at a place or places to
be designated by the Secured Party that is reasonably convenient to both
parties, and the Secured Party may enter into and occupy any premises owned or
leased by the Company where the Pledged Property or any part thereof is located
or assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate the Secured Party's
rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to the Company in
respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as specified below
and without any obligation to prepare or process the Pledged Property for sale,
(A) sell the Pledged Property or any part thereof in one or more parcels at
4
public or private sale, at any of the Secured Party's offices or elsewhere, for
cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon
such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable and/or
(B) lease, license or dispose of the Pledged Property or any part thereof upon
such terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable. The Company
agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of the
Pledged Property shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days' notice to the
Company of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any
private sale or other disposition of the Pledged Property is to be made shall
constitute reasonable notification. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to
make any sale or other disposition of any Pledged Property regardless of notice
of sale having been given. The Secured Party 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. The Company hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party
arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Property may
have been sold at a private sale was less than the price which might have been
obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the
Obligations, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does
not offer such Pledged Property to more than one offeree, and waives all rights
that the Company may have to require that all or any part of such Pledged
Property be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof. The Company
hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of the Pledged Property by the
Secured Party may be made without warranty, (ii) the Secured Party may
specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment or
the like, and (iii) such actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall
not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such sale of Pledged
Property.
(b) Any cash held by the Secured Party as Pledged Property and all cash
proceeds received by the Secured Party in respect of any sale of or collection
from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Pledged Property shall
be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Secured Party pursuant
to Section 8.3 hereof) by the Secured Party against, all or any part of the
Obligations in such order as the Secured Party shall elect, consistent with the
provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or
cash proceeds held by the Secured Party and remaining after the indefeasible
payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations shall be paid over to
whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of
competent jurisdiction shall direct.
(c) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or
realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Party is
legally entitled, the Company shall be liable for the deficiency, together with
interest thereon at the rate specified in the Convertible Debentures for
interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by
applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees,
costs, expenses and other client charges of any attorneys employed by the
Secured Party to collect such deficiency.
(d) The Company hereby acknowledges that if the Secured Party complies
with any applicable state, provincial, or federal law requirements in connection
with a disposition of the Pledged Property, such compliance will not adversely
affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the
Pledged Property.
5
(e) The Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or
future collateral security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and
the Pledged Property) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or
any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of
payment in any particular order, and all of the Secured Party's rights hereunder
and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall
be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.
To the extent that the Company lawfully may, the Company hereby agrees that it
will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might
cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Party's rights under
this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the
Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any
of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to
the extent that it lawfully may, the Company hereby irrevocably waives the
benefits of all such laws.
Section 5.2 DUTIES REGARDING PLEDGED PROPERTY.
The Secured Party shall have no duty as to the collection or protection
of the Pledged Property or any income thereon or as to the preservation of any
rights pertaining thereto, beyond the safe custody and reasonable care of any of
the Pledged Property actually in the Secured Party's possession.
