8. Sale, Collections, Etc.

 

8.1. Until an Event of Default (as that term is defined below), each Investor authorizes and permits the Company to collect Accounts from Account debtors.  This privilege may be terminated by Investors at any time upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as set forth in this Agreement, and Investors thereupon shall be entitled to and have all of the ownership, title, rights, securities and guarantees of the Company in respect of Accounts, and in respect to the property evidenced thereby, including the right of stoppage in transit, and Investors may notify any Account debtor of the assignment of Accounts and collect the same; thereafter the Company will receive all payments on Account as agent of and for Investors and will transmit to Investors, on the day of receipt thereof, all original checks, drafts, acceptances, notes and other evidence of payment received in payment of or on account of Accounts, including all cash monies, similarly received by the Company.  Until such delivery, the Company shall keep all such remittances separate and apart from the Company’s own funds, capable of identification as the property of Investors, and shall hold the same in trust for Investors.

 

8.2. Until an Event of Default and until such time as Investors have notified the Company of the revocation of such power and authority the Company may (i) only in the ordinary course of its business, at its own expense, sell, lease or furnish under contracts of service any of the Inventory normally held by the Company for such purpose; (ii) use and consume any raw materials, work in process or materials, the use and consumption of which is necessary in order to carry on the Company’s business; and the Company shall, at its own expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due all amounts due with respect to any of the Collateral, including the taking of such action with respect to such collection as Investors may reasonably request or, in the absence of such request, as the Company may deem advisable.  A sale in the ordinary course of business does not include a transfer in partial or total satisfaction of a debt.

 

9. Waiver.  The Company waives all defenses and setoffs which could hinder or reduce the obligations of the Company under this Agreement. In addition, except as expressly prohibited by law, the Company waives any right it has to require Investors to give notice of the details of any public or private sale of personal property security held from the Company or pursue any remedy available to Investors.

 

10. Information.  The Company shall permit Investors or their agents upon reasonable request to have access to and to inspect all the Collateral and from time to time verify Accounts and chattel paper, inspect, check, make copies of or extracts from the books, records and files of the Company, and the Company will make same available at any time for such purposes.  In addition, the Company shall promptly supply Investors with financial and such other information concerning its affairs and assets as Investors may request from time to time.

 

 

 

 

11. Event of Default.

 

11.1. An Event of Default shall exist as and when provided under the Notes.

 

11.2. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Notes and all other Liabilities may (notwithstanding any provisions thereof) at the option of the Investor holding the Notes with the largest aggregate principal (the “Lead Note Holder”) and without demand or notice of any kind, be declared, and thereupon immediately shall become due and payable, and the Lead Note Holder may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies, including the right to immediate possession of the Collateral, available to the Investors under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Note Holder may not be an Affiliate of the Company or Cambria, as defined in the Purchase Agreement.  Should such be the case, the Investor holding the Notes with the next largest aggregate principal shall be deemed to be the Lead Note Holder.  The Company agrees, in case of an Event of Default, to assemble, at its expense, all the Collateral at a convenient place acceptable to the Lead Note Holder and to pay all costs of Investors of collection of the Notes and all other Liabilities, and enforcement of rights hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, including participation in bankruptcy proceedings, and expense of locating the Collateral and expenses of any repairs to any realty or other property to which any of the Collateral may be affixed or be a part.  If any notification of intended disposition of any of the Collateral is required by law, such notification, if mailed, shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent at least seven days before such disposition, postage prepaid, addressed to the undersigned either at the address shown below, or at any other address of the undersigned appearing on the records of the Lead Note Holder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Note Holder shall not be obligated to declare the Notes and other Liabilities due or, having done so, to take any action authorized hereunder or by law with respect to the collateral.  If the Lead Note Holder fails to take any action pursuant to this Section 11.2 within sixty (60) days of being notified in writing of an Event of Default, any Investor may, at its option, exercise the rights granted to the Lead Note Holder under this Section 11.2 or by law. Provided, however, that any amounts realized, whether by the efforts of the Lead Note Holder or the efforts any other Investor, from the sale of Collateral or otherwise hereunder shall first be distributed to reimburse the costs and expenses, including but not limited to legal expenses and commissions, of the Lead Note Holder and the Investors in enforcing the rights hereunder and, second, to all Investors pro-rata based upon the amount owed to each Investor pursuant to the Notes held by the Investor.  Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to proceeds of sale, the Lead Note Holder and any Investor exercising rights pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall not be liable to the Company or other Investors for any action taken or not taken with respect to the Collateral other than willful misconduct.

 

11.3. THE COMPANY AGREES THAT INVESTORS SHALL, IN THE EVENT OF ANY DEFAULT, HAVE THE RIGHT TO PEACEFULLY TAKE POSSESSION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL. THE COMPANY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, IN SUCH INSTANCE, TO A JUDICIAL HEARING PRIOR TO SUCH RETAKING.

 

 

 

 

12. Appointment of Attorney-in-Fact.  Upon an Event of Default, the Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Investors as the Company’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Company and in the name of the Company, the Investors, from time to time in the Investors’ discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Investors may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

 

Time shall be deemed of the very essence of this Agreement.  Except as otherwise defined in this Agreement, all terms in this Agreement shall have the meanings provided by the Nevada UCC, as amended, revised or replaced or any successor laws hereafter enacted (“Nevada Uniform Commercial Code”).  Investors shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in their possession if they take such action for that purpose as the Company requests in writing, but failure of Investors to comply with any such request shall not of itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care, and failure of Investors to preserve or protect any rights with respect to such Collateral against any prior parties or to do any act with respect to the preservation of such Collateral not so requested by the Company shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of such Collateral.  Any delay on the part of Investors in exercising any power, privilege or right hereunder, or under any other instrument executed by the Company to Investors in connection herewith shall not operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power, privilege or right shall preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power, privilege or right.  The waiver by Investors of any Event of Default by the Company shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent Events of Default, but shall be restricted to the Event of Default so waived.  All rights, remedies and powers of Investors hereunder are irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and shall be in addition to all rights, remedies and powers given hereunder or in or by any other instruments or by the Nevada Uniform Commercial Code, or any laws now existing or hereafter enacted.

 

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any applicable principles of conflicts of laws.  Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this 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 Agreement.  The rights and privileges of Investors hereunder shall inure to the benefit of their successors and assigns and this Agreement shall be binding on all heirs, executors, administrators, assigns and successors of the Company.

 

Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient if given in accordance with section 9.4 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

 

 

 

This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written and oral communications or understandings.  This Agreement may be amended or supplemented only by a writing signed by each of the Company and the Investors holding a majority of the aggregate principal amount then outstanding under the Notes.  The Company acknowledges receipt of a true and complete copy of this Agreement.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

 

INVESTORS AND THE COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, BUT ONE THAT MAY BE WAIVED. AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT, PURCHASER AND THE COMPANY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT.
