6.             If any Assignor defaults in the performance or fulfillment of any of the terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions or warranties on such Assignor’s part to be performed or fulfilled under or pursuant to this Master Security Agreement, Laurus may, at its option without waiving its right to enforce this Master Security Agreement according to its terms, immediately or at any time thereafter and without notice to any Assignor, perform or fulfill the same or cause the performance or fulfillment of the same for each Assignor’s joint and several account and at each Assignor’s joint and several cost and expense, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be added to the Obligations and shall be payable on demand with interest thereon at the highest rate permitted by law, or, at Laurus’ option, debited by Laurus from any other deposit accounts in the name of any Assignor and controlled by Laurus.

 

7.             With effect solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default beyond any applicable grace period, each Assignor appoints Laurus, any of Laurus’ officers, employees or any other person or entity whom Laurus may designate as such Assignor’s attorney, with power to execute such documents in each such Assignor’s behalf and to supply any omitted information and correct patent errors in any documents executed by any Assignor or on any Assignor’s behalf; to file financing statements against such Assignor covering the Collateral (and, in connection with the filing of any such financing statements, describe the Collateral as “all assets and all personal property, whether now owned and/or hereafter acquired” (or any substantially similar variation thereof)); to sign such Assignor’s name on public records; and to do all other things Laurus deem necessary to carry out this Master Security Agreement.  Each Assignor hereby ratifies and approves all acts of the attorney and neither Laurus nor the attorney will be liable for any acts of commission or omission, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).  This power being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as any Obligations remains unpaid.

9.             THIS MASTER SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH

 

5



 

STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.  All of the rights, remedies, options, privileges and elections given to Laurus hereunder shall inure to the benefit of Laurus’ successors and assigns.  The term “Laurus” as herein used shall include Laurus, any parent of Laurus’, any of Laurus’ subsidiaries and any co-subsidiaries of Laurus’ parent, whether now existing or hereafter created or acquired, and all of the terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions and warranties of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of each of the foregoing, and shall bind the representatives, successors and assigns of each Assignor.

The parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws.  Therefore, to achieve the best combination of the benefits of the judicial system and of arbitration, the parties hereto waive all rights to trial by jury in any action, suite, or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise between Laurus, and/or any Assignor arising out of, connected with, related or incidental to the relationship established between them in connection with this Master Security Agreement or the transactions related hereto.

 

11.           It is understood and agreed that any person or entity that desires to become an Assignor hereunder, or is required to execute a counterpart of this Master Security Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the requirements of any Document, shall become an Assignor hereunder by (x) executing a Joinder Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Laurus, (y) delivering supplements to such exhibits and annexes to such Documents as Laurus shall reasonably request and (z) taking all actions as specified in this Master Security Agreement as would have been taken by such Assignor had it been an original party to this Master Security Agreement, in each case with all documents required above to be delivered to Laurus and with all documents and actions required above to be taken to the reasonable satisfaction of Laurus.
