The pronouns “you” and “your” refer to the Secured Party. The pronouns “I,” “me” and “my” refer to each person or entity signing this Agreement as Debtor and agreeing to give the Property described in this Agreement as security for the Secured Debts.

 

1.     SECURED DEBTS. The term “Secured Debts” includes and this Agreement will secure each of the following:

 

A.  Specific Debts. The following debts and all extensions, renewals, refinancings, modifications and replacements. A promissory note or other agreement, No. 4060307, dated February 28, 2006, from me to you, in the amount of $1,000,000.00.

B.  All Debts. All present and future debts from me to you, even if this Agreement is not specifically referenced, the future debts are also secured by other collateral, or if the future debt is unrelated to or of a different type than this debt. If more than one person signs this Agreement, each agrees that it will secure debts incurred either individually or with others who may not sign this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement constitutes a commitment to make additional or future loans or advances. Any such commitment must be in writing.

 

This Agreement will not secure any debt for which you fall to give any required notice of the right of rescission. This Agreement will not secure any debt for which a non-possessory, non-purchase money security interest is created in “household goods” in connection with a “consumer loan,” as those terms are defined by federal law governing unfair and deceptive credit practices.

 

C.  Sums Advanced. All sums advanced and expenses incurred by you under the terms of this Agreement

 

Loan Documents refer to all the documents executed in connection with the Secured Debts,

 

2.     SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and performance of the Secured Debts, I give you a security interest in all of the Property described in this Agreement that I own or have sufficient rights in which to transfer an interest, now or in the future, wherever the Property is or will be located, and all proceeds and products from the Property (including, but not limited to, all parts, accessories, repairs, replacements, improvements, and accessions to the Property). Property is all the collateral given as security for the Secured Debts and described in this Agreement, and includes all obligations that support the payment or performance of the Property. “Proceeds” includes anything acquired upon the sale, lease, license, exchange, or other disposition of the Property; any rights and claims arising from the Property; and any collections and distributions on account of the Property.

 

This Agreement remains in effect until terminated in writing, even if the Secured Debts are paid and you are no longer obligated to advance funds to me under any loan or credit agreement.

 

3.     PROPERTY DESCRIPTION. The Property is described as follows:

 

A.  Inventory. All inventory which I hold for ultimate sale or lease, or which has been or will be supplied under contracts of service, or which are raw materials, work in process, or materials used or consumed in my business.

B.  Accounts and Other Rights to Payment. All rights I have now or in the future to payments including, but not limited to, payment for property or services sold, leased, rented, licensed, or assigned, whether or not I have earned such payment by performance. This includes any rights and interests (including all liens and security interests) which I may have by law or agreement against any Account Debtor or obligor of mine.

C.  General Intangibles. All general intangibles including, but not limited to, tax refunds, applications for patents, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, good will, trade names, customer lists, permits and franchises, payment intangibles, computer programs and all supporting information provided in connection with a transaction relating to computer programs, and the right to use my name.

D.  Equipment. All equipment including, but not limited to, all machinery, vehicles, furniture, fixtures, manufacturing equipment, farm machinery and equipment, shop equipment, office and recordkeeping equipment, and parts and tools. All equipment described in a list or schedule which I give to you will also be included in the Property, but such a list is not necessary for a valid security interest in my equipment.

A.  Power. I am duly organized, and validly existing and in good standing in all jurisdictions in which I operate, I have the power and authority to enter into this transaction and to carry on my business or activity as it is now being conducted and, as applicable, am qualified to do so in each jurisdiction in which I operate.

B.  Authority. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the obligation evidenced by this Agreement are within my powers, have been duly authorized, have received all necessary governmental approval, will not violate any provision of law, or order of court or governmental agency, and will not violate any agreement to which I am a party or to which I am or any of my property is subject.

I will provide you with at least 30 days notice prior to any change in my name, address, or state of organization or registration.

D.  Business Name. Other than previously disclosed in writing to you I have not changed my name or principal place of business within the last 10 years and have not used any other trade or fictitious name. Without your prior written consent, I do not and will not use any other name and will preserve my existing name, trade names end franchises.

E.   Ownership of Property. I represent that I own all of the Property. Your claim to the Property is ahead of the claims of any other creditor, except as disclosed in writing to you prior to any advance on the Secured Debts. I represent that I am the original owner of the Property and, if I am not, that I have provided you with a list of prior owners of the Property.

 

5.     DUTIES TOWARD PROPERTY.

 

A.   Protection at Secured Party’s Interest. I will defend the Property against any other claim. I agree to do whatever you require to protect your security interest and to keep your claim in the Property ahead of the claims of other creditors. I will not do anything to harm your position.

 

I will keep books, records and accounts about the Property and my business in general. I will let you examine these and make copies at any reasonable time. I will prepare any report or accounting you request which deals with the Property.

 

B.   Use, Location, and Protection of the Property. I will keep the Property in my possession and in good repair. I will use it only for commercial purposes. I will not change this specified use without your prior written consent. You have the right of reasonable access to inspect the Property and I will immediately inform you of any loss or damage to the Property. I will not cause or permit waste to the Property.

 

I will keep the Property at my address listed in the DATE AND PARTIES section unless we agree I may keep it at another location. If the Property is to be used in other states, I will give you a list of those states. The location of the Property is given to aid in the identification of the Property. It does not in any way limit the scope of the security interest

 



 

granted to you. I will notify you in writing and obtain your prior written consent to any change in location of any of the Property. I will not use the Property in violation of any law. I will notify you in writing prior to any change in my address, name or, if an organization, any change in my identity or structure,

 

Until the Secured Debts are fully paid and this Agreement is terminated, I will not grant a security interest in any of the Property without your prior written consent, I will pay all taxes and assessments levied or assessed against me or the Property and provide timely proof of payment of these taxes and assessments upon request.

 

C.   Selling, Leasing or Encumbering the Property. I will not sell, offer to sell, lease, or otherwise transfer or encumber the Property without your prior written permission, except for Inventory sold in the ordinary course of business at fair market value, or at a minimum price established between you and me. If I am in default under this Agreement, I may not sell the Inventory portion of the Property even in the ordinary course of business. Any disposition of the Property contrary to this Agreement will violate your rights. Your permission to sell the Property may be reasonably withheld without regard to the creditworthiness of any buyer or transferee. I will not permit the Property to be the subject of any court order affecting my rights to the Property in any action by anyone other than you. If the Property includes chattel paper or instruments, either as original collateral or as proceeds of the Property, I will note your security interest on the face of the chattel paper or instruments.

 

D.   Additional Duties Specific to Accounts. I will not settle any Account for less than its full value without your written permission. Until you tell me otherwise, I will collect all Accounts in the ordinary course of business, I will not dispose of the Accounts by assignment without your prior written consent. I will keep the proceeds from all the Accounts and any goods which are returned to me or which I take back. I will not commingle them with any of my other property. I will deliver the Accounts to you at your request. If you ask me to pay you the full price on any returned items or items retaken by me, I will do so. I will make no material change in the terms of any Account, and I will give you any statements, reports, certificates, lists of Account Debtors (showing names, addresses and amounts owing), invoices applicable to each Account, and other date in any way pertaining to the Accounts as you may request.

 

6.     INSURANCE. I agree to keep the Property insured against the risks reasonably associated with the Property. I will maintain this insurance in the amounts you require. This insurance will last until the Property is released from this Agreement. I may choose the insurance company, subject to your approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

 

I will have the insurance company name you as loss payee on any insurance policy. I will give you and the insurance company immediate notice of any loss. You may apply the insurance proceeds toward what is owed on the Secured Debts. You may require added security as a condition of permitting any insurance proceeds to be used to repair or replace the Property.

 

If you acquire the Property in damaged condition, my right to any insurance policies and proceeds will pass to you to the extent of the Secured Debts.

 

I will immediately notify you of cancellation or termination of insurance. If I fail to keep the Property insured, you may obtain insurance to protect your interest in the Property and I will pay for the insurance on your demand. You may demand that I pay for the insurance all at once, or you may add the insurance premiums to the balance of the Secured Debts and charge interest on it at the rate that applies to the Secured Debts. This insurance may include coverages not originally required of me, may be written by a company other than one I would choose, and may be written at a higher rate than I could obtain if I purchased the insurance. I acknowledge and agree that you or one or your affiliates may receive commissions on the purchase of this insurance.

 

7.     COLLECTION RIGHTS OF THE SECURED PARTY. Account Debtor means the person who is obligated on an account, chattel paper, or general intangible. I authorize you to notify my Account Debtors of your security interest and to deal with the Account Debtors’ obligations at your discretion. You may enforce the obligations of an Account Debtor, exercising any of my rights with respect to the Account Debtors’ obligations to make payment or otherwise render performance to me, including the enforcement of any security interest that secures such obligations. You may apply proceeds received from the Account Debtors to the Secured Debts or you may release such proceeds to me.

If you perform for me, you will use reasonable care. If you exercise the care and follow the procedures that you generally apply to the collection of obligations owed to you, you will be deemed to be using reasonable care. Reasonable care will not include: any steps necessary to preserve rights against prior parties; the duty to send notices, perform services or take any other action in connection with the management of the Property; or the duty to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to others by me or other parties. Your authorization to perform for me will not create an obligation to perform and your failure to perform will not preclude you from exercising any other rights under the law or this Agreement. All cash and non-cash proceeds of the Property may be applied by you only upon your actual receipt of cash proceeds against such of the Secured Debts, matured or unmatured, as you determine in your sole discretion.

 

If you come into actual or constructive possession of the Property, you will preserve and protect the Property. For purposes of this paragraph, you will be in actual possession of the Property only when you have physical, immediate and exclusive control over the Property and you have affirmatively accepted that control.
