4 REMEDIES.
Upon the occurrence of any default in the payment or performance of any of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in this Security Agreement or any other Event of Default, Secured Party shall have all rights, powers and remedies set forth in this Security Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or in any other written agreement or instrument relating to any of the Obligations or any security therefor, as a secured party under the UCC or as otherwise provided at law or in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Party may, at its option upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, declare its commitments to the Company to be terminated and all Obligations to be immediately due and payable, or, if provided in the Transaction Documents, all commitments of Secured Party to the Company shall immediately terminate and all Obligations shall be automatically due and payable, all without demand, notice or further action of any kind required on the part of Secured Party. Each Debtor hereby waives any and all presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and all other notices and demands in connection with the enforcement of Secured Party’s rights under the Transaction Documents, and hereby consents to, and waives notice of release, with or without consideration, of any Collateral, notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the Transaction Documents to the contrary. In addition to the foregoing:
4.1 Possession and Assembly of Collateral. Secured Party may, without notice, demand or the initiation of legal process of any kind, take possession of any or all of the Collateral (in addition to Collateral of which Secured Party already has possession), wherever it may be found, and for that purpose may pursue the same wherever it may be found, and may at any time enter into any of premises of a Debtor where any of the Collateral may be or is supposed to be, and search for, take possession of, remove, keep and store any of the Collateral until the same shall be sold or otherwise disposed of and Secured Party shall have the right to store and conduct a sale of the same in any premises of a Debtor without cost to Secured Party.

Each Debtor acknowledges that Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of all or any portion of the Collateral because of certain legal and/or practical restrictions and provisions which may be applicable to the Collateral and, therefore, may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of offerees and purchasers. Each Debtor consents to any such private sale so made even though at places and upon terms less favorable than if the Collateral were sold at public sale. Secured Party shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.

Each Debtor expressly absolves Secured Party from any loss or decline in market value of any Collateral by reason of delay in the enforcement or assertion or non-enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Security Agreement.
| 10 |
4.3 Standards for Exercising Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Secured Party to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Secured Party: (i) to incur reasonable expenses deemed necessary by Secured Party 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 any of its customer or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral; (iv) to exercise collection remedies against any of its customers 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 any Debtor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the 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 capability 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, including any warranties of title; (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Secured Party against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Secured Party a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral; or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Secured Party, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Secured Party in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Debtor acknowledges that the purpose of this section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Secured Party would not be commercially unreasonable in Secured Party’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Secured Party shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Debtor or to impose any duties on Secured Party that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.
4.4 UCC and Offset Rights. Secured Party may exercise, from time to time, any and all rights and remedies available to it under the UCC or under any other applicable law in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights and remedies expressly granted in this Security Agreement or in any other agreements between any Obligor and Secured Party, and may, without demand or notice of any kind, appropriate and apply toward the payment of such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, including costs of collection and attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and costs, and in such order of application as Secured Party may, from time to time, elect, any indebtedness of Secured Party to any Obligor, however created or arising, including balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Obligor in the possession, control or custody of, or in transit to Secured Party. Each Debtor, on behalf of itself and any Obligor, hereby waives the benefit of any law that would otherwise restrict or limit Secured Party in the exercise of its right, which is hereby acknowledged, to appropriate at any time hereafter any such indebtedness owing from Secured Party to any Obligor.

(a) instruct any Debtor, at its own expense, to notify any parties obligated on any of the Collateral, including any of its customers and of any Debtor’s payment processing service providers, to make payment directly to Secured Party of any amounts due or to become due thereunder, or Secured Party may directly notify such obligors of the security interest of Secured Party, and/or of the assignment to Secured Party of the Collateral and direct such obligors to make payment to Secured Party of any amounts due or to become due with respect thereto, and thereafter, collect any such amounts due on the Collateral directly from such Persons obligated thereon;

| 12 |
(i) at any time, and from time to time, accept additions to, releases, reductions, exchanges or substitution of the Collateral, without in any way altering, impairing, diminishing or affecting the provisions of this Security Agreement, the Transaction Documents, or any of the other Obligations, or Secured Party’s rights hereunder, under the Obligations.
Each Debtor hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Secured Party may do with respect to the Collateral and agrees that Secured Party shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law with respect to actions taken in connection with the Collateral.
4.6 Attorney-in-Fact. Each Debtor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Secured Party (and any officer of Secured Party or any Person designated by Secured Party for that purpose) as such Debtor’s true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact (and agent-in-fact) in such Debtor’s name, place and stead, with full power of substitution, to: (i) take such actions as are permitted in this Security Agreement; (ii) execute such financing statements and other documents and to do such other acts as Secured Party may require to perfect and preserve Secured Party’s security interest in, and to enforce such interests in the Collateral; and (iii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, carry out any remedy provided for in this Security Agreement, the Debentures, the Purchase Agreement, or otherwise at law or in equity, including endorsing such Debtor’s name to checks, drafts, instruments and other items of payment, and proceeds of the Collateral, executing change of address forms with the postmaster of the United States Post Office serving the address of such Debtor, changing the address of Debtor to that of Secured Party, opening all envelopes addressed to such Debtor and applying any payments contained therein to the Obligations, and changing any merchant accounts or instructions to such Debtor’s payment processing service providers regarding any credit/debit card payments from any of its customers. Each Debtor hereby acknowledges that the constitution and appointment of such proxy and attorney-in-fact are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable. Each Debtor hereby ratifies and confirms all that such attorney-in-fact may do or cause to be done by virtue of any provision of this Security Agreement.
4.7 No Marshaling. Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including this Security Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Debtor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Secured Party’s rights under this Security Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Debtor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
| 13 |
4.8 No Waiver. No Event of Default shall be waived by Secured Party except in writing. No failure or delay on the part of Secured Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver of the exercise of the same or any other right at any other time; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. There shall be no obligation on the part of Secured Party to exercise any remedy available to Secured Party in any order. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided at law or in equity. Each Debtor agrees that in the event that such Debtor fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its Obligations or liabilities under this Security Agreement or any other agreements with Secured Party, no remedy of law will provide adequate relief to Secured Party, and further agrees that Secured Party shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.
4.9 Application of Proceeds. Secured Party will, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of cash or solvent credits from collection of items of payment, proceeds of Collateral or any other source, apply the whole or any part thereof against the Obligations secured hereby. Secured Party shall further have the exclusive right to determine how, when and what application of such payments and such credits shall be made on the Obligations, and such determination shall be conclusive upon Debtor. Any proceeds of any disposition by Secured Party of all or any part of the Collateral may be first applied by Secured Party to the payment of expenses incurred by Secured Party in connection with the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses and costs as provided for in Section 5.14 hereof.
5 MISCELLANEOUS.
5.1 Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement and the other Transaction Documents: (i) are valid, binding and enforceable against each Debtor and Secured Party in accordance with their respective provisions and no conditions exist as to their legal effectiveness; (ii) constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; and (iii) are the final expression of the intentions of each Debtor and Secured Party.

No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Security Agreement or the other Transaction Documents shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and acknowledged by Secured Party, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
5.3 WAIVER OF CLAIMS AND DEFENSES. EACH DEBTOR WAIVES EVERY PRESENT AND FUTURE DEFENSE, CAUSE OF ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR SETOFF WHICH SUCH DEBTOR MAY NOW HAVE AS OF THE DATE HEREOF, OR AS IT MAY IN THE FUTURE COME TO HAVE, TO ANY ACTION BY SECURED PARTY IN ENFORCING THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS — OTHER THAN FOR SET OFF TO ESTABLISH THE AMOUNTS DUE AND PAID IN RESPECT OF THE DEBENTURES. EACH DEBTOR UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT IT IS WAIVING DEFENSES AND CLAIMS WHICH MAY NOT YET HAVE ACCRUED OR OF WHICH IT MAY NOT YET BE AWARE AS MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR SECURED PARTY ENTERING THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND GRANTING ANY FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATION TO THE COMPANY. THIS PROVISION IS INTENDED TO BE CONSTRUED AS BROADLY AS PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. FURTHER, EACH DEBTOR UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES OF THE SECURED PARTY DO NOT HAVE AUTHORITY TO MAKE ANY STATEMENTS, PROMISES OR REPRESENTATIONS IN CONFLICT WITH OR IN ADDITION TO THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, AND SECURED PARTY HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY SUCH STATEMENTS, PROMISES OR REPRESENTATIONS. BY EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH DEBTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS NOT RELIED UPON SUCH STATEMENTS, PROMISES OR REPRESENTATIONS, IF ANY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHTS, DEFENSES, OR CLAIMS ARISING FROM ANY SUCH STATEMENTS, PROMISES OR REPRESENTATIONS.
5.4 MANDATORY FORUM SELECTION. TO INDUCE SECURED PARTY TO MAKE CERTAIN FINANCIAL ACCOMODATIONS TO COMPANY, EACH DEBTOR IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER, RELATING TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR RELATED TO ANY MATTER WHICH IS THE SUBJECT OF OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, OR THE COLLATERAL (WHETHER OR NOT SUCH CLAIM IS BASED UPON BREACH OF CONTRACT OR TORT) SHALL, EXCEPT AS HEREINAFTER PROVIDED, BE SUBJECT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF THE STATE AND/OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, SECURED PARTY MAY, AT SECURED PARTY’S SOLE OPTION, ELECT TO BRING ANY ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THIS PROVISION IS INTENDED TO BE A “MANDATORY” FORUM SELECTION CLAUSE AND GOVERNED BY AND INTERPRETED CONSISTENT WITH FLORIDA LAW. EACH DEBTOR HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT HAVING IT SITUS IN SUCH COUNTY (OR TO ANY JURISDICTION OR VENUE, IF SECURED PARTY SO ELECTS), AND EACH DEBTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS.
| 15 |
5.5 WAIVER OF PERSONAL SERVICE. EACH DEBTOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OR BY FEDERAL EXPRESS, DIRECTED TO THE DEBTORS, AS SET FORTH AND ACCORDING TO THE TERMS IN THE NOTICE PROVISIONS HEREIN. EACH DEBTOR AGREES THAT NO ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF ACTUAL RECEIPT OF PROCESS IS REQUIRED AND SERVICE WILL BE DEEMED EFFECTIVE PURSUANT TO TERMS OF NOTICE PROVISIONS CONTAINED HEREIN. SERVICE MAY ALSO BE MADE IN ANY MANNER PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OF COURT OR OTHERWISE.
5.6 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL, EACH KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE IRREVOCABLY, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, ANY NOTE, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS, THE COLLATERAL, OR ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY LENDING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT OR COURSE OF DEALING IN WHICH SECURED PARTY AND ANY DEBTOR ARE ADVERSE PARTIES, AND EACH AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

Secured Party, without consent from or notice to anyone, may at any time assign Secured Party’s rights in this Security Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the Obligations, or any part thereof and transfer Secured Party’s rights in any or all of the Collateral, and Secured Party thereafter shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such Collateral. This Security Agreement shall be binding upon Secured Party and each Debtor and its respective legal representatives and successors. All references herein to Debtor shall be deemed to include any successors, whether immediate or remote. In the case of a joint venture or partnership, the term “Debtor” shall be deemed to include all joint venturers or partners thereof, who shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder.
| 16 |
5.8 Binding Effect. This Security Agreement shall become effective upon execution by each Debtor and Secured Party, and shall bind the Debtors and Secured Party, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
5.9 Governing Law. Except in the case of the Mandatory Forum Selection Clause in Section 5.4 above, which clause shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with Florida law, this Security Agreement shall be delivered and accepted in and shall be deemed to be a contract made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Wyoming, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such State, without giving effect to the choice of law provisions of such State.
5.10 Enforceability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by, unenforceable or invalid under any jurisdiction, such provision shall as to such jurisdiction, be severable and be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
5.11 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in making payments of all amounts due Secured Party under the Transaction Documents and in the performance and observance by each Debtor of each covenant, agreement, provision and term of this Security Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
5.12 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Security Agreement. Receipt of an executed signature page to this Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall constitute effective delivery thereof. Electronic records of executed Transaction Documents maintained by Secured Party shall be deemed to be originals thereof.
5.13 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Debtor waives all notices and demands in connection with the enforcement of Secured Party’s rights hereunder. All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for hereunder shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
| 17 |
5.14 Costs, Fees and Expenses. Debtors shall pay or reimburse Secured Party for all reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred by Secured Party or for which Secured Party becomes obligated in connection with the enforcement or defense of this Security Agreement, including search fees, costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees, costs and time charges of counsel to Secured Party and all taxes payable in connection with this Security Agreement.

That portion of the Obligations consisting of costs, expenses or advances to be reimbursed by Debtors to Secured Party pursuant to this Security Agreement or the other Transaction Documents which are not paid on or prior to the date hereof shall be payable by Debtor to Secured Party on demand. If at any time or times hereafter Secured Party: (a) employs counsel for advice or other representation: (i) with respect to this Security Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; (ii) to represent Secured Party in any litigation, contest, dispute, suit or proceeding or to commence, defend, or intervene or to take any other action in or with respect to any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, or proceeding (whether instituted by Secured Party, any Debtor, or any other Person) in any way or respect relating to this Security Agreement; or (iii) to enforce any rights of Secured Party against any Debtor or any other Person under of this Security Agreement; (b) takes any action to protect, collect, sell, liquidate, or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral; and/or (c) attempts to or enforces any of Secured Party’s rights or remedies under this Security Agreement, the costs and expenses incurred by Secured Party in any manner or way with respect to the foregoing, shall be part of the Obligations, payable by Debtors to Secured Party on demand.
5.15 Termination. This Security Agreement and the Liens and security interests granted hereunder shall not terminate until the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the commitments to make Loans thereunder and the full and complete performance and satisfaction and payment in full of all the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted). Upon termination of this Security Agreement, Secured Party shall also timely deliver to Debtor (at the sole expense of Debtors) such UCC termination statements, certificates for terminating the liens on the Motor Vehicles (if any) and such other documentation, without recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, as shall be reasonably requested by a Debtor to effect the termination and release of the Liens and security interests in favor of Secured Party affecting the Collateral; provided, however, to the extent any such terminations or releases require Secured Party to expend any sums in terminating or releasing any such Liens, Secured Party may refrain from terminating or releasing such Liens unless and until Debtors pay to Secured Party the estimated cost, as reasonably and promptly determined by Secured Party, of effectuating such terminations or releases.
5.16 Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Debtor for liquidation or reorganization, should a Debtor 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 any Debtor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the 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 Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
5.17 Increase in Obligations. It is the intent of the parties to secure payment of the Obligations, as the amount of such Obligations may increase from time to time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Transaction Documents, and all of the Obligations, as so increased from time to time, shall be and are secured hereby. Upon the execution hereof, Debtors shall pay any and all documentary stamp taxes and/or other charges required to be paid in connection with the execution and enforcement of the Transaction Documents, and if, as and to the extent the Obligations are increased from time to time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Transaction Documents, then Debtors shall immediately pay any additional documentary stamp taxes or other charges in connection therewith.
