(a)    Secured Party. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of any Collateral in Secured Party’s possession from time to time and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Secured Party does not have any obligation, duty or responsibility with respect to the Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Party shall not have any obligation, duty or responsibility to do any of the following: (a) [reserved]; (b) fix, preserve or exercise any right, privilege or option (whether conversion, redemption or otherwise) with respect to the Collateral unless (i) Pledgor makes written demand to Secured Party to do so, (ii) such written demand is received by Secured Party in sufficient time to permit Secured Party to take the action demanded in the ordinary course of its business, and (iii) Pledgor provides additional collateral, reasonably acceptable to Secured Party; (c) collect any amounts payable in respect of the Collateral (Secured Party being liable to account to Pledgor only for what Secured Party may actually receive or collect thereon); (d) sell all or any portion of the Collateral to avoid market loss; (e) sell all or any portion of the Collateral unless and until (i) Pledgor makes

Pledge and Security Agreement

Page 3

written demand upon Secured Party to sell the Collateral, and (ii) Pledgor provides additional collateral, reasonably acceptable to Secured Party; or (f) hold the Collateral for or on behalf of any party other than Pledgor.

(b)    Pledgor. Pledgor will keep the Collateral in good working order and repair in accordance with prudent industry standards. Pledgor will not use the Collateral in violation of any statute, ordinance or regulation which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Collateral. Pledgor agrees that Secured Party or such Person as Secured Party may designate will have the right to inspect the Collateral at reasonable times, and Pledgor will fully cooperate in such inspections.

6.    Representations and Warranties. Pledgor hereby represents and warrants the following to Secured Party as of the date hereof:

(a)    Accuracy of Information. All written information heretofore, herein or hereafter supplied to Secured Party by or on behalf of Pledgor with respect to the Collateral is true and correct in all material respects, when taken as a whole, as of the date such information is provided.

(b)    Enforceability. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Pledgor, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights and except to the extent specific remedies may generally be limited by equitable principles.

(c)    Ownership and Liens. Pledgor has good and marketable title to the Collateral free and clear of all liens, security interests, encumbrances or adverse claims, except for the security interest created by this Agreement. No dispute, right of setoff, counterclaim or defense exists with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. Pledgor has not executed any other security agreement currently affecting the Collateral and no effective financing statement or other instrument similar in effect covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file in any recording office except as may have been executed or filed in favor of Secured Party.

(d)    No Conflicts or Consents. Neither the ownership, the intended use of the Collateral by Pledgor, the grant of the security interest by Pledgor to Secured Party herein nor the exercise by Secured Party of its rights or remedies hereunder, will (i) conflict with any provision of any agreement, judgment or order applicable to or binding upon Pledgor, or (ii) result in or require the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets or properties of Pledgor or of any person. No material consent, approval, authorization or order of, notice to or filing with, any court, governmental authority or third party is required in connection with the grant by Pledgor of the security interest herein or the exercise by Secured Party of its rights and remedies hereunder, except where the failure to obtain such consent, approval, authorization or order could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e)    Security Interest. Pledgor has full right, power and authority to grant a first priority security interest in the Collateral to Secured Party in the manner provided herein, free and clear of any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance. This Agreement creates a legal, valid and binding security interest in favor of Secured Party in the Collateral. Pledgor represents and warrants that no other person has or claims a security interest in the Collateral that is greater or higher priority than that of Secured Party. It is further stipulated that the intent of the Secured Party and Pledgor is to create a purchase money security interest in favor of Secured Party, and it is acknowledged that the Indebtedness secured by the Collateral arises from Pledgor’s purchase of the Collateral from Secured Party. In the event any Person claims a greater or higher priority security interest in the Collateral than that of Secured Party and which has not been permitted by Secured Party in writing, Pledgor will take all action as is necessary to terminate such claimed security interest.

(f)    Location/Identity. Pledgor’s principal residence or place of business and chief executive office (as those terms are used in the Code), as the case may be, is located at the address set forth on the first page hereof.

(g)    Solvency of Pledgor. As of the date hereof, and after giving effect to this Agreement and the completion of all other transactions contemplated by Pledgor at the time of the execution of this Agreement, (i) Pledgor and its Subsidiaries, when taken as a whole, are and will be solvent within the meaning given that term and similar terms under applicable laws related to fraudulent transfers and conveyances, (ii) the fair saleable value of the present assets of Pledgor and its consolidated Subsidiaries exceeds and will continue to exceed the liabilities (both fixed and contingent) of Pledgor and its consolidated Subsidiaries, and (iii) Pledgor and its consolidated Subsidiaries have not incurred and do not intend to incur, or believe (nor should they reasonable believe) that they will incur debts beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature.

(h)    [Reserved].

7.    Affirmative Covenants. Pledgor will comply with the covenants contained in this Section at all times during the period of time this Agreement is effective unless Secured Party shall otherwise consent in writing.

(a)    Ownership, Taxes and Liens. Pledgor will maintain good and marketable title to all Collateral free and clear of all liens, security interests, encumbrances or adverse claims, except for the security interest created by this Agreement and the security interests and other encumbrances expressly permitted herein. Pledgor will not permit any dispute, right of setoff, counterclaim or defense to exist with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. Pledgor will cause any financing statement or other security instrument with respect to the Collateral not otherwise permitted hereunder to be terminated, except as may exist or as may have been filed in

favor of Secured Party or as otherwise permitted hereunder. Pledgor agrees to timely pay all taxes or assessments levied on or assessed against the Collateral or for use of the Collateral, except those which are being actively contested by such Person in good faith and by appropriate proceedings; provided such reserves or other appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made or provided for. In the event Pledgor fails or refuses to timely pay any such taxes or assessments, fifteen days after providing written notice to Pledgor, Secured Party may at its sole discretion pay such taxes or assessments, and Pledgor will reimburse Secured Party the amount paid within fifteen days of notice from Secured Party.

(b)    Inspection of Books and Records. Pledgor will keep adequate records concerning the Collateral prepared in accordance with GAAP and will permit Secured Party and all representatives and agents appointed by Secured Party to inspect Pledgor’s books and records of or relating to the Collateral at any time upon reasonable notice to Pledgor during normal business hours, to make and take away photocopies, photographs and printouts thereof and to write down and record any such information.

(c)    Adverse Claim. Pledgor covenants and agrees to promptly notify Secured Party of any material claim, action or proceeding affecting title to the Collateral, or any part thereof, or the security interest created hereunder and, at Pledgor’s expense, defend Secured Party’s security interest in the Collateral against the claims of any third party. Pledgor also covenants and agrees to promptly deliver to Secured Party a copy of all written notices received by Pledgor with respect to the Collateral.

(d)    Further Assurances. Pledgor will contemporaneously with the execution hereof and from time to time thereafter at its expense promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further action necessary or appropriate that Secured Party may reasonably request in order (i) to perfect and protect the security interest created or purported to be created hereby and the first priority of such security interest, to enable Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder in respect of the Collateral, and (ii) to otherwise effect the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, executing and filing any financing or continuation statements, or any amendments thereto.

(e)    [Reserved].

(f)    Insurance. Pledgor shall provide and maintain at its sole cost and expense with financially sound and reputable insurers, such casualty insurance, public liability insurance, and third party property all risk damage insurance, in each case, with respect to liabilities, losses or damage in respect of the assets, properties and businesses of Pledgor with minimum policy limits, through any combination of primary and excess policies, of $5,000,000.00, and giving effect to reasonable self-insurance which comports with the requirements of this Section; and provided that adequate reserves therefor are maintained in accordance with GAAP, with such deductibles, covering such risks and otherwise on such terms and conditions as shall

Stabilis Energy, Inc.

be customary. Each of the foregoing policies will name Secured Party or its assign as an additional insured, and any payment of insurance proceeds for the loss, theft, damage or destruction of the Collateral will be made payable jointly to Secured Party and Pledgor. Each policy shall expressly provide that said insurance will not be canceled without 30 days (10 days for non payment) prior written notice to Secured Party or its assigns. Pledgor shall furnish to Secured Party at its address stated above a certificate or certificates of insurance from the insurer(s) as requested by Secured Party in writing, in a form and containing such matters as reasonably required by Secured Party to evidence the existence of the required coverages. Neither Secured Party nor its assigns shall have any obligation to ascertain the existence of or provide any insurance coverage for the Collateral or for Pledgor’s benefit. Any failure of Secured Party to insist on the provision of a certificate of insurance shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights hereunder and shall not excuse or release Pledgor’s obligation to procure and provide such insurance. It is further understood and agreed that the insurance coverage provided by Pledgor shall operate independent and apart from any indemnity obligations imposed on Pledgor under this Agreement and will be primary to any other insurance maintained by or available to Secured Party notwithstanding any “other insurance” provisions or similar language. If Pledgor fails to procure or maintain said insurance within ten days of receiving notice from Secured Party, Secured Party shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to effect such insurance. In that event, Secured Party shall notify Pledgor of such payment and Pledgor shall repay to Secured Party the cost thereof within 15 days after such notice is mailed to Pledgor. In the event Pledgor fails to timely remit payment, the cost of such insurance procured by Secured Party will be added to the principal balance on the Indebtedness with interest to accrue thereon in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents.

8.    Negative Covenants. Pledgor will comply with the covenants contained in this Section at all times during the period of time this Agreement is effective, unless Secured Party shall otherwise consent in writing.

(a)    Transfer or Encumbrance. Pledgor will not (i) sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or transfer Pledgor’s rights in any of the Collateral without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, (ii) grant a lien or security interest in or execute, authorize, file or record any financing statement or other security instrument with respect to the Collateral to any party other than Secured Party, or deliver actual or constructive possession of any certificate, instrument or document evidencing or representing any of the Collateral to any party other than Secured Party.

(b)    Impairment of Security Interest. Pledgor will not take or allow any action to be taken which would materially impair the value or enforceability of Secured Party’s security interest in any Collateral.

(c)    [Reserved].

(e)    Financing Statement Filings. Pledgor recognizes that financing statements pertaining to the Collateral have been or may be filed in one or more of the following jurisdictions: the location of Pledgor’s chief executive office, or other such place as Pledgor may be “located” under the provisions of the Code; where Pledgor maintains the Collateral, or has its records concerning the Collateral, as the case may be. Without limitation of any other covenant herein, Pledgor will neither cause nor permit any change in the location of (i) any Collateral or (ii) any records concerning any Collateral without providing written notice to Secured Party within 30 days’ after such change. Without limiting Secured Party’s rights hereunder, Pledgor authorizes Secured Party to file financing statements and amendments related to the Collateral under the provisions of the Code as amended from time to time.

(a)    Power of Attorney. Pledgor hereby appoints Secured Party as Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, such power of attorney being coupled with an interest, with full authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor, for the sole and limited purpose of taking any action, and to execute any instrument which Secured Party may from time to time in Secured Party’s reasonable discretion deem necessary or appropriate to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation, the following action: (i) transfer any instrument, documents or certificates pledged as Collateral in the name of Secured Party or its nominee; (ii) use any interest, premium, or principal payments or other cash proceeds received in connection with any Collateral to reduce any of the Indebtedness or (iii) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which Secured Party may deem necessary or appropriate for the collection or preservation of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Secured Party with respect to the Collateral.

(b)    Performance by Secured Party. If Pledgor fails to perform any agreement or obligation provided herein, Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be a part of the Indebtedness, secured by the Collateral and payable by Pledgor. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, Secured Party does not have any duty to exercise or continue to exercise any of the foregoing rights and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or for any delay in doing so.

No single or partial exercise by Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any other right or remedy.

(i)    exercise in respect of the Collateral all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code (whether or not the Code applies to the affected Collateral);

Stabilis Energy, Inc.

Page 10

(vi)    buy the Collateral, or any portion thereof, at any private sale if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations;

(vii)    apply for the appointment of a receiver for the Collateral, and Pledgor hereby consents to any such appointment; and

(viii)    at its option, retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Indebtedness whenever the circumstances are such that Secured Party is entitled to do so under the Code or otherwise, to the full extent permitted by the Code, Secured Party shall be permitted to elect whether such retention shall be in full or partial satisfaction of the Indebtedness.

In the event Secured Party shall elect to sell the Collateral, Secured Party may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as and shall be permitted to specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. Further, if Secured Party sells any of the Collateral on credit, Pledgor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Secured Party and applied to the Indebtedness. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Secured Party may resell the Collateral and Pledgor shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale. Pledgor agrees that in the event Pledgor or any Obligated Party is entitled to receive any notice under the Code, as it exists in the state governing any such notice, of the sale or other disposition of any Collateral, reasonable notice shall be deemed given when such notice is deposited in a depository receptacle under the care and custody of the United States Postal Service, postage prepaid, at such party’s address set forth on the first page hereof, ten (10) days prior to the date of any public sale, or after which a private sale, of any of such Collateral is to be held. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. 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. Pledgor further acknowledges and agrees that the redemption by Secured Party of any certificate of deposit pledged as Collateral shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable disposition under Section 9.610 of the Code.

(b)    [Reserved].

(c)    Application of Proceeds.

Stabilis Energy, Inc.

Pledge and Security Agreement

Page 11

(i)    to the repayment or reimbursement of the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Secured Party in connection with and reasonable and necessary attorneys’ fees related to: (A) the administration of the Loan Documents, (B) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, the Collateral, and (C) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder;

(ii)    to the payment or other satisfaction of any liens and other encumbrances upon the Collateral;

(iii)   to the satisfaction of the Indebtedness;

(iv)   by holding such cash and proceeds as Collateral;

(v)    to the payment of any other amounts required by applicable law (including without limitation, Section 9.615(a)(3) of the Code or any other applicable statutory provision); and

(vi)    by delivery to Pledgor or any other party lawfully entitled to receive such cash or proceeds whether by direction of a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise.

(d)    Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral by Secured Party are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Secured Party is legally entitled, Pledgor, each Obligated Party and any party who guaranteed or is otherwise obligated to pay all or any portion of the Indebtedness shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon as provided in the Loan Documents, to the full extent permitted by the Code.

(e)    Non-Judicial Remedies. In granting to Secured Party the power to enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, Pledgor expressly waives, renounces and knowingly relinquishes any legal right which might otherwise require Secured Party to enforce its rights by judicial process. Pledgor recognizes and concedes that non-judicial remedies are consistent with the usage of trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length. Nothing herein is intended to prevent Secured Party or Pledgor from resorting to judicial process at either party’s option.

(f)    Other Recourse. Pledgor waives any right to require Secured Party to proceed against any third party, exhaust any Collateral or other security for the Indebtedness, or to have any third party joined with Pledgor in any suit arising out of the Indebtedness or any of the Loan Documents, or pursue any other remedy available to Secured Party. Pledgor further waives any and all notice of acceptance of this Agreement and of the creation, modification, rearrangement, renewal or extension of the Indebtedness. Pledgor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any third party

Stabilis Energy, Inc.

Pledge and Security Agreement

Page 12
