Exhibit 10.9
LECTREFY INC.
SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Security Agreement (this “Security Agreement”) is made as of January 15, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Lectrefy Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Lee Aerospace, Inc., a Kansas corporation (“Investor”). Capitalized but otherwise undefined terms used herein shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Note (as defined below).
In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, and as an inducement to Investor to lend to the Company the additional aggregate principal sum of up to One Million Nine Hundred Two Thousand Nine Hundred Nine Dollars ($1,902,909) as set forth in the Promissory Note dated the Effective Date and issued by the Company to Investor (the “Note”), the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Creation of a Security Interest. As security for payment of the Note to Investor when due, the Company hereby grants to Investor a security interest in the collateral described in paragraph 2 below (the “Collateral”). To perfect the security interest created hereby, the Company shall execute and deliver to Investor any and all documents reasonably requested for such perfection by Investor.
2. Collateral. The Collateral that is subject to the security interest created hereby consists of all of the intellectual property owned and/or developed by the Company, including, without limitation, any trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, software, patents and patent rights of the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver any subordination agreement provided by a bank, financial institution, leasing agent or similar entity (any of which, a “Commercial Lender”) on customary terms for subordination; and if Investor elects not to enter into such subordination agreement, then Investor hereby agrees that Investor will have no security interest in any of the Collateral whatsoever (and acknowledges and agrees that any security interest held by Investor in any of the Collateral will be and is, effective upon the Company entering into the commercial loan agreements with a Commercial Lender, relinquished and terminated in its entirety and will be of no further force or effect), in order to facilitate such Commercial Lender taking a senior security interest in any or all of the Collateral. In addition, upon the Company’s reasonable request in connection with an equity or other financing and subject to the closing of such financing, Investor shall terminate its security interest in the Collateral hereunder in order to facilitate the closing of such financing.
3. The Company’s Obligation. The Company shall pay to Investor all amounts due and owing to Investor under the Note in accordance with the terms of the Note, when and as the same become due.
4. Protection of the Collateral. Until such time as the aggregate outstanding indebtedness under the Note has been paid in full or unless Investor consents otherwise in writing, the Company shall:
(a) not grant to any other person or entity a security interest in or to the Collateral except to a Commercial Lender in connection with a commercial loan agreement or transaction;
(b) promptly pay when due all fees, taxes and assessments due upon the Collateral and for its use and operation; and
(c) execute and deliver from time to time any endorsements, assignments, financing statements and other documents (and pay promptly all related filing fees or similar costs and expenses) to perfect, maintain and protect the security interests created hereunder and the priority thereof.
5. Default. The following events shall be considered “Events of Default” with respect to the Note:
(a) any indebtedness under the Note is not paid when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether on the applicable maturity date, by acceleration or otherwise, and any such amount shall remain unpaid for a period of more than thirty (30) days after the corresponding due date thereof;
(b) a default shall occur in the observance or performance of any covenant, obligation or agreement of the Company under the Note, and, to the extent the event or circumstances giving rise to such default is amenable to being cured such that the default would no longer exist, such default shall continue uncured for a period of more than thirty (30) days after the Company knew or should have known, exercising reasonable diligence, of the event or circumstances giving rise to such default; or
(c) the Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator of itself or any part of its property, (ii) become subject to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator for itself or any part of its property if such appointment is not terminated or dismissed within sixty (60) days, (iii) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iv) be adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, (v) institute any proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally, or file a petition or answer seeking a reorganization or an arrangement with creditors to take advantage of any insolvency law, or file an answer admitting the material allegations of a bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency petition filed against it, or (vi) become subject to any proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally, which proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days of filing, or have an order for relief entered against it in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code.

In addition to the right of acceleration and all other rights of Investor, Investor shall be entitled to any and all remedies available under the Uniform Commercial Code in force in the State of Florida as of the date hereof, and Investor shall be entitled to act with all of the rights and powers of Investor. Without limitation of any of the foregoing, upon an Event of Default, Investor may, at any time and from time to time, with or without judicial process and the aid or assistance of others: enter upon the premises of the Company and, without resistance or interference by the Company, take possession of the Collateral or dispose of any part or all of the Collateral on any such premises; or require the Company to assemble and make available to Investor at the expense of the Company any part or all of the Collateral at any place or time designated by Investor, which is reasonably convenient to the Company and Investor.

If permitted by law, Investor may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of indebtedness) for the purchase of the Collateral.
(d) Investor shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Collateral, or any part of it, if it determines not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of the Collateral may have been given. Investor may, without notice or publication, adjourn a public or private sale of the Collateral, or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement, at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned.
7. Application of the Proceeds. All proceeds of any sale of the Collateral by Investor pursuant to paragraph 6 shall be applied as follows:
