6. Remedies: Rights Upon Default.
 
(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Note and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Secured Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Parties may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Debtors expressly agree that in any such event the Secured Parties, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Debtors or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of the Debtors where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving the Debtors or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on the Secured Parties’ claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Parties shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption the Debtors hereby release. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. The Secured Parties shall have the right to conduct such sales on the Debtors’ premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use the Debtors’ premises without charge for such time or times as the Secured Parties deems necessary or advisable.
 
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Debtors further agree, at the Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place or places designated by the Collateral Agent which are reasonably convenient to the Collateral Agent and the Debtors, whether at the Debtors’ premises or elsewhere. Until the Secured Parties are able to affect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Secured Parties shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Secured Parties. The Secured Parties shall have no obligation to the Debtors to maintain or preserve the rights of the Debtors as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of the Secured Parties. The Secured Parties may, if they so elect, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Secured Parties’ remedies, with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. The Secured Parties shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Secured Obligations, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by the Secured Parties of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Secured Parties account for the surplus, if any, to the Debtors. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Debtors hereby waive all claims, damages, and demands against the Secured Parties arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Debtors agree that ten (10) days prior notice by the Secured Parties of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. The Debtors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Secured Obligations, including any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by the Secured Parties to collect such deficiency.
 
 
 

 
 
(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Debtors hereby waive presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
 
(c) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Secured Parties to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Debtors acknowledge and agree that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Secured Parties (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Secured Parties to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Debtors, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Secured Parties against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Secured Parties a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Secured Parties, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Secured Parties in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Debtors acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 6(c) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Secured Parties would not be commercially unreasonable in the Secured Parties’ exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Parties shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 6(c). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 6(c) shall be construed to grant any rights to the Debtors or to impose any duties on the Secured Parties that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 6(c).
 
(d) The Secured Parties shall not be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the Debtors, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. The Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder or under any other Document shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Debtors absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of, and covenant not to assert against the Secured Parties, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as sureties now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise.
 
 
 

 
 
7. Grant Of Licenses To Use Intellectual Property Collateral. For the purpose of enabling the Secured Parties to exercise rights and remedies under Section 6 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 6 hereof, in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as the Secured Parties shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, the Debtors hereby grant to the Secured Parties, irrevocable, nonexclusive licenses (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Debtors) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Debtors, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such licenses access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.
 
8. Indemnity; Expenses; Limitation On Secured Parties’ Duty In Respect Of Collateral.
 
(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Debtors shall indemnify and hold the Secured Parties, their respective Affiliates, and each of their directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the termination of the Secured Obligations and the termination, resignation or replacement of the Collateral Agent or any assignment by a Secured Party) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnified Person in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this Security Agreement, the Note or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of any Indemnified Person; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Person, be available to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Debtors, their directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not an Indemnified Person is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Sutaria Documents are consummated. All amounts due under this Section 8 shall be payable within five Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 8 shall survive the resignation of the Collateral Agent, the assignment by a Secured Party and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Secured Obligations. In the event that any investigation, litigation or proceeding is asserted or threatened in writing or instituted against any Indemnified Person, or any remedial, removal or response action which is requested of it or any other Indemnified Person, for which such Indemnified Person may desire indemnity or defense hereunder, such Indemnified Person shall notify the Debtors in writing of such event; provided that failure to so notify the Debtors shall not affect the right of any Indemnified Person to seek indemnification under this Section 8.
 
 
 

 
 
(b) The Debtors will upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Security Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral of the Debtors, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by the Debtors to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
 
(c) The Secured Parties shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in their possession or under their control.

(b) Reasonable Care. The Collateral Agent is required to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as any owner thereof reasonably requests in writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, but failure of the Collateral Agent, to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care.
 
(c) Other Provisions Relating to the Collateral Agent.
 
 
 

 
 
(i) The Collateral Agent has such powers, rights and obligations as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Security Agreement.

(iii) As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Security Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action or exercise any discretion, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting upon the instructions of the Holders and shall in all such cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in accordance with such instructions of the Holders, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on the Holders. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to advance or expend any funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers or rights hereunder at the request of the Holders unless the Debtors or the Holders have provided to the Collateral Agent security or indemnity, which the Collateral Agent, in its reasonable discretion, deems sufficient against any and all liability or expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take such action.
 
(iv) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ notice thereof to the Holders and the Debtors. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, (A) such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, and (B) the retiring Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all Collateral within its possession or control to the possession or control of the successor Collateral Agent and shall execute and deliver such notices, instructions and assignments as may be necessary or desirable to transfer the rights of the Collateral Agent in respect of the Collateral to the successor Collateral Agent. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation or replacement hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Collateral Agent. Upon any such resignation or removal, the former Collateral Agent shall take all steps necessary to assign the Collateral to the successor Collateral Agent.
 
10. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Debtors for liquidation or reorganization, should the Debtors become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Debtors’ assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.

This Security Agreement is to be read, construed and applied together with the Note, which, taken together, set forth the complete understanding and agreement of the Collateral Agent, the Holders and the Debtors with respect to the matters referred to herein and therein.
 
 
 

 
 
13. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Secured Parties shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Collateral Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by the Collateral Agent of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Collateral Agent would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Secured Parties, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by the Collateral Agent and the Debtor.
 
14. Limitation By Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.
 
15. Termination Of This Security Agreement. Subject to Section 10 hereof, this Security Agreement shall terminate upon the Termination Date.
 
16. Successors And Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of the Debtors hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Debtors (including any debtor-in-possession on behalf of the Debtors) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, hereunder, inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties and all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Secured Obligations and their respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, hereunder. The Debtors may not assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Security Agreement.
 
17. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one agreement. This Security Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile or, if approved in writing by the Collateral Agent, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid.
 
 
 

 
 
18. Governing Law.

NOTHING IN THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE THE SECURED PARTIES FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF THE SECURED PARTIES. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF VIA REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL OR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY (WITH EVIDENCE OF DELIVERY) TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS IN EFFECT FOR NOTICES TO IT UNDER THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE SHALL CONSTITUTE GOOD AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE OF PROCESS AND NOTICE THEREOF. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO LIMIT IN ANY WAY ANY RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW. THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
 
19. Waiver Of Jury Trial. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY, THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATING HERETO 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 RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, AMONG THE SECURED PARTIES AND THE DEBTOR ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER NOTES DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.

21. Section Titles. The Section titles contained in this Security Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement among the parties hereto.
 
22. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Security Agreement.
 
23. Benefit Of Secured Party. All Liens granted or contemplated hereby shall be for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and all proceeds or payments realized from Collateral in accordance herewith shall be applied to the Secured Obligations in the manner determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion.
