THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of the ____ day of July, 2006 (the “Agreement”), is entered into by and among Mark Daniels (the “Secured Party”), and Tactical Air Defense Services, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Obligor”). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter defined).

 

WITNESSETH:

 

WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, the Obligor and its Subsidiaries entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with AeroGroup Incorporated, a Utah corporation (“Sellers”) (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, the Obligor agreed to assume all of the obligations of Sellers under the Secured Promissory Notes issued to the Secured Party, in the aggregate principal amount of $1,100,000 (the “Promissory Note”); and

 

WHEREAS, in order to induce Sellers to enter into the Asset Purchase Agreement the Obligor and the Subsidiary Purchasers have agreed to execute and deliver to the Secured Party this Agreement for the benefit of the Secured Party and to grant him a security interest in certain property of the Obligor, to secure the prompt payment, performance and discharge in full of all of the obligations of the Obligor under the Promissory Note.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.  Certain Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 1. Terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement that are defined in Article 9 of the UCC (such as “general intangibles” and “proceeds”) shall have the respective meanings given such terms in Article 9 of the UCC.

 

(a)  “Collateral” means the collateral in which the Secured Party is granted a security interest by this Agreement and which shall include the following, whether presently owned or existing or hereafter acquired or coming into existence, and all additions and accessions thereto and all substitutions and replacements thereof, and all proceeds, products and accounts thereof, including, without limitation, all proceeds from the sale or transfer of the Collateral and of insurance covering the same and of any tort claims in connection therewith:

 

(i)  all Goods of the Obligor, including, without limitations, all machinery, equipment, computers, motor vehicles, aircraft, aircraft parts, avionics, trucks, tanks, boats, ships, appliances, furniture, special and general tools, fixtures, test and quality control devices and other equipment of every kind and nature and wherever situated, together with all documents of title and documents representing the same, all additions and accessions thereto, replacements therefor, all parts therefor, and all substitutes for any of the foregoing and all other items used and useful in connection with the Obligor’s businesses and all improvements thereto (collectively, the “Equipment”); and

 

 

(ii)  All Inventory of the Obligor; and

 

(iii)  All of the Obligor’s contract rights and general intangibles, including, without limitation, all partnership interests, stock or other securities, licenses, distribution and other agreements, computer software development rights, leases, franchises, customer lists, quality control procedures, grants and rights, goodwill, trademarks, service marks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, copyrights, deposit accounts, and income tax refunds (collectively, the “General Intangibles”); and

 

(iv)  All Receivables of the Obligor including all insurance proceeds, and rights to refunds or indemnification whatsoever owing, together with all instruments, all documents of title representing any of the foregoing, all rights in any merchandising, goods, equipment, motor vehicles and trucks which any of the same may represent, and all right, title, security and guaranties with respect to each Receivable, including any right of stoppage in transit; and

 

(v)  All of the Obligor’s documents, instruments and chattel paper, files, records, books of account, business papers, computer programs and the products and proceeds of all of the foregoing Collateral set forth in clauses (i)-(iv) above.

 

(b)  “Obligations” means all of the Obligor’s obligations under the Promissory Note, in each case, whether now or hereafter existing, voluntary or involuntary, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not jointly owed with others, and whether or not from time to time decreased or extinguished and later decreased, created or incurred, and all or any portion of such obligations or liabilities that are paid, to the extent all or any part of such payment is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from the Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise as such obligations may be amended, supplemented, converted, extended or modified from time to time.

 

(c)  “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code, as currently in effect in the State of New York; provided, however, that in the event, by reason of mandatory provisions of law, any or all of the attachment, perfection or priority of the Secured Party’s security interest in any Collateral is governed by the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York, the term “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in such other jurisdiction for purposes of the provisions hereof relating to such attachment, perfection of priority and for purposes of definitions related to such provisions.

 

2.  Grant of Security Interest.

 

(a) As an inducement for the Secured Party to enter into the Asset Purchase Agreement and to cause Sellers to enter into the Asset Purchase Agreement, and to secure the complete and timely payment, performance and discharge in full, as the case may be, of all of the Obligations, except for Permitted Liens (as hereinafter defined), the Obligor hereby, unconditionally and irrevocably, pledge, grant and hypothecate to the Secured Party, a continuing security interest in, a continuing lien upon, an unqualified right to possession and disposition of and a right of set-off against, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by law, all of the Obligor’s right, title and interest of whatsoever kind and nature in and to the Collateral (the “Security Interest”).

 

 

(b) In the event that the Obligor materially breaches any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement, or should any Event of Default (as that term is defined herein) occur, the respective positions of each Secured Party with respect to the Collateral shall be in accordance with its respective participations therein.

 

3.  Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements of the Obligor. The Obligor represents and warrant to, and covenant and agrees with, the Secured Party as follows:

 

(a)  The Obligor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by the Obligor of this Agreement and the filings contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Obligor and no further action is required by the Obligor. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Obligor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally.

 

(b)  The Obligor represents and warrants that it has no place of business or offices where their respective books of account and records are kept (other than temporarily at the offices of its attorneys or accountants), except as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto;

 

(c)  Except as to those liens existing as of the date hereof that were disclosed to the Secured Party by the Obligor and are set forth on the attached Schedule B (the “Permitted Liens”), the Obligor is the sole owner of the Collateral (except for non-exclusive licenses granted by the Obligor in the ordinary course of business), free and clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances, rights or claims, and are fully authorized to grant the Security Interest in and to pledge the Collateral. Except as to the Permitted Liens, there is not on file in any governmental or regulatory authority, agency or recording office an effective financing statement, security agreement, license or transfer or any notice of any of the foregoing (other than those that have been filed in favor of the Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement) covering or affecting any of the Collateral. Except as to the Permitted Liens, so long as this Agreement shall be in effect, the Obligor shall not execute and shall not knowingly permit to be on file in any such office or agency any such financing statement or other document or instrument (except to the extent filed or recorded in favor of the Secured Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement).

 

(d)  No part of the Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable. No written claim has been received that any Collateral or the Obligor’s use of any Collateral violates the rights of any third party. There has been no adverse decision to the Obligor’s claim of ownership rights in or exclusive rights to use the Collateral in any jurisdiction or to the Obligor’s right to keep and maintain such Collateral in full force and effect, and there is no proceeding involving said rights pending or, to the best knowledge of the Obligor, threatened before any court, judicial body, administrative or regulatory agency, arbitrator or other governmental authority.

 

(e)  The Obligor shall at all times maintain their books of account and records relating to the Collateral at its principal place of business and may not relocate such books of account and records unless it delivers to the Secured Party at least thirty (30) days prior to such relocation (i) written notice of such relocation and the new location thereof (which must be within the United States) and (ii) evidence that appropriate financing statements and other necessary documents have been filed and recorded and other steps have been taken to perfect the Security Interest to create in favor of the Secured Party valid, perfected and continuing liens in the Collateral.

 

 

(f)  This Agreement creates in favor of the Secured Party a valid security interest in the Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Obligations and, upon making the filings described in the immediately following sentence, a perfected security interest in such Collateral. Except for the filing of financing statements on Form-1 under the UCC with the jurisdictions indicated on Schedule C, attached hereto, no authorization or approval of or filing with or notice to any governmental authority or regulatory body is required either (i) for the grant by the Obligor of, or the effectiveness of, the Security Interest granted hereby or for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Obligor, or (ii) for the perfection of or exercise by the Secured Party of their rights and remedies hereunder.

 

(g)  The Obligor hereby irrevocably authorize the Secured Party at any time and from time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (i) indicate the Collateral regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York as amended from time to time (“NYUCC”), or any other Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction; and (ii) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the NYUCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether the Obligor is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to the Obligor. The Obligor agrees to furnish any such information to the Secured Parties promptly upon request. The Obligor also ratifies its authorization for the Secured Party to have filed in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any like initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof with respect to the Collateral.

 

(h)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not conflict with or cause a breach or default, or an event that with or without the passage of time or notice, shall constitute a breach or default, under any agreement to which Obligor is a party or by which Obligor is bound. No consent (including, without limitation, from stockholders or creditors of the Obligor) is required for the Obligor to enter into and perform its obligations hereunder.

 

(i)  The Obligor shall at all times maintain the liens and Security Interest provided for hereunder as valid and perfected liens and security interests in the Collateral in favor of the Secured Party until this Agreement and the Security Interest hereunder shall be terminated pursuant to Section 11. The Obligor hereby agrees to defend the same against any and all persons. The Obligor shall safeguard and protect all Collateral for the account of the Secured Party. At the request of the Secured Party, the Obligor will pay the cost of filing one or more financing statements pursuant to the UCC (or any other applicable statute) in form reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party in all public offices wherever filing is, or is deemed by the Secured Party to be, necessary or desirable to effect the rights and obligations provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Obligor shall pay all fees, taxes and other amounts necessary to maintain the Collateral and the Security Interest hereunder, and the Obligor shall obtain and furnish to the Secured Party from time to time, upon demand, such releases and/or subordinations of claims and liens which may be required to maintain the priority of the Security Interest hereunder.

 

 

(j)  So long as the Obligor shall have any obligations under the Promissory Note, the Obligor shall not, without the Secured Party’s written consent, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, license (except for non-exclusive licenses granted by the Obligor in the ordinary course of business), sell (except for sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business) or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral.

 

(k)  The Obligor shall keep and preserve their Equipment, Inventory and other tangible Collateral in good condition, repair and order and shall not operate or locate any such Collateral (or cause to be operated or located) in any area excluded from insurance coverage.

 

(l)  The Obligor shall, within ten (10) days of obtaining knowledge thereof, advise the Secured Party promptly, in sufficient detail, of any substantial change in the Collateral, and of the occurrence of any event which would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Collateral or on the Secured Party’s security interest therein.

 

(m)  The Obligor shall promptly execute and deliver to the Secured Party such further deeds, mortgages, assignments, security agreements, financing statements or other instruments, documents, certificates and assurances and take such further action as the Secured Party may from time to time request and may in its sole discretion deem necessary to perfect, protect or enforce its security interest in the Collateral.

 

(n)  The Obligor shall permit the Secured Party and their representatives and agents to inspect the Collateral at any time, and to make copies of records pertaining to the Collateral as may be requested by the Secured Party from time to time.

 

(o)  The Obligor will take all steps reasonably necessary to diligently pursue and seek to preserve, enforce and collect any rights, claims, causes of action and accounts receivable in respect of the Collateral.

 

(p)  The Obligor shall promptly notify the Secured Party in sufficient detail upon becoming aware of any attachment, garnishment, execution or other legal process levied against any Collateral and of any other information received by the Obligor that may materially affect the value of the Collateral, the Security Interest or the rights and remedies of the Secured Party hereunder.

 

(q)  All information heretofore, herein or hereafter supplied to the Secured Party by or on behalf of the Obligor with respect to the Collateral is accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date furnished.

 

4.  Defaults. The following events shall be “Events of Default”:

 

 

(a)  A breach by Obligor or any of the Purchasers of their material obligations under any of the Promissory Note, the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Guaranty and failure to cure such breach for ten (10) days after receipt by such Obligor of notice of such breach from the Secured Party;

 

(b)  Any representation or warranty of the Obligor or in this Agreement and/or or any Purchaser in (i) the Asset Purchase Agreement, or (ii) any other agreement, guaranty or other document relating to the Asset Purchase Agreement to which such Purchaser is a party, shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made; and

 

(c)  The material failure by an Obligor to observe or perform any of its material obligations hereunder for ten (10) days after receipt by such Obligor of notice of such failure from the Secured Party.

 

5.  Duty To Hold In Trust. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, the Obligor shall, upon receipt by it of any revenue, income or other sums subject to the Security Interest, whether payable pursuant to the Promissory Note, or otherwise, or of any check, draft, debenture, trade acceptance or other instrument evidencing an obligation to pay any such sum, hold the same in trust for the Secured Party and shall forthwith endorse and transfer any such sums or instruments, or both, to the Secured Party for application to the satisfaction of the Obligation.

 

6.  Rights and Remedies Upon Default. Upon occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, the Secured Party shall have the right to exercise all of the remedies conferred hereunder and under the Promissory Notes, and the Secured Party shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and/or any other applicable law (including the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction in which any Collateral is then located). Without limitation, the Secured Party shall have the following rights and powers:

 

(a)  The Secured Party shall have the right to take possession of the Collateral and, for that purpose, enter, with the aid and assistance of any person, any premises where the Collateral, or any part thereof, is or may be placed and remove the same, and the Obligor shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at places which the Secured Party shall reasonably select, whether at the Obligor’s premises or elsewhere, and make available to the Secured Party, without rent, all of the Obligor’s respective premises and facilities for the purpose of the Secured Party taking possession of, removing or putting the Collateral in saleable or disposable form.

 

(b)  The Secured Party shall have the right to operate the business of the Obligor using the Collateral and shall have the right to assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and deliver all or any part of the Collateral, at public or private sale or otherwise, either with or without special conditions or stipulations, for cash or on credit or for future delivery, in such parcel or parcels and at such time or times and at such place or places, and upon such terms and conditions as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable, all without (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) advertisement or demand upon or notice to the Obligor or right of redemption of the Obligor, which are hereby expressly waived. Upon each such sale, lease, assignment or other transfer of Collateral, the Secured Party may, unless prohibited by applicable law which cannot be waived, purchase all or any part of the Collateral being sold, free from and discharged of all trusts, claims, right of redemption and equities of the Obligor, which are hereby waived and released.

 

 

7.  Applications of Proceeds. The proceeds of any such sale, lease or other disposition of the Collateral hereunder shall be applied first, to the expenses of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, and the like (including, without limitation, any taxes, fees and other costs incurred in connection therewith) of the Collateral, to the reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by the Secured Party in enforcing their rights hereunder and in connection with collecting, storing and disposing of the Collateral, and then to satisfaction of the Obligations, and to the payment of any other amounts required by applicable law, after which the Secured Party shall pay to the Obligor any surplus proceeds. If, upon the sale, license or other disposition of the Collateral, the proceeds thereof are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Party are legally entitled, the Obligor will be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon, at the rate of 18% per annum (the “Default Rate”), and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligor waives all claims, damages and demands against the Secured Party arising out of the repossession, removal, retention or sale of the Collateral, unless due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party.

 

All ordinary costs and expenses incurred by any Secured Party in collection of the Obligations shall be borne exclusively by the Obligor including, without limitation, any costs, expenses, fees or disbursements incurred by outside agencies or attorneys retained by the Secured Party to effect collections of the Obligations or any Collateral securing the Obligations. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any suits, actions, proceedings or claims of the nature referred to herein or otherwise which are based upon or related to the repayment of, or the taking of security for, any loans and/or advances made by Secured Party to the Obligor that do not arise under the Promissory Note, and the party making such loans and/or advances shall be exclusively responsible for such suits, actions, proceedings or claims and the payment of all such expenses in connection therewith.

 

8.  Costs and Expenses. The Obligor agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any filing required hereunder, including without limitation, any financing statements, continuation statements, partial releases and/or termination statements related thereto or any expenses of any searches reasonably required by the Secured Party. The Obligor shall also pay all other claims and charges which in the reasonable opinion of the Secured Party might prejudice, imperil or otherwise affect the Collateral or the Security Interest therein. The Obligor will also, upon demand, pay to the Secured Party the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which the Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the enforcement of this Agreement, (ii) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, or (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Secured Party under the Promissory Note. Until so paid, any fees payable hereunder shall be added to the principal amount of the Promissory Note, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

 

9.  Responsibility for Collateral. The Obligor assume all liabilities and responsibility in connection with all Collateral, and the obligations of the Obligor hereunder or under the Promissory Note shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the loss, destruction, damage or theft of any of the Collateral or its unavailability for any reason.

 

 

10.  Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Secured Party and all Obligations of the Obligor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Promissory Note, or any agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Promissory Notes, or any other agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing; (c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other collateral for, or any guaranty, or any other security, for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any action by the Secured Party to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its sole discretion any insurance claims or matters made or arising in connection with the Collateral; or (e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute any legal or equitable defense available to the Obligor, or a discharge of all or any part of the Security Interest granted hereby. Until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, the rights of the Secured Parties shall continue even if the Obligations are barred for any reason, including, without limitation, the running of the statute of limitations or bankruptcy. The Obligor expressly waives presentment, protest, notice of protest, demand, notice of nonpayment and demand for performance. In the event that at any time any transfer of any Collateral or any payment received by the Secured Party hereunder shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the United States, or shall be deemed to be otherwise due to any party other than the Secured Party, then, in any such event, the Obligor’s obligations hereunder shall survive cancellation of this Agreement, and shall not be discharged or satisfied by any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation of this Agreement, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof. The Obligor waives all right to require the Secured Party to proceed against any other person or to apply any Collateral which the Secured Party may hold at any time, or to marshal assets, or to pursue any other remedy. The Obligor waives any defense arising by reason of the application of the statute of limitations to any obligation secured hereby.

 

11.  Term of Agreement. This Agreement and the Security Interest shall terminate on the earlier of: (i) the repayment of all amounts due the Secured Party under the Promissory Note. Upon such termination, the Secured Party, at the request and at the expense of the Obligor, will join in executing any termination statement with respect to any financing statement executed and filed pursuant to this Agreement.

 

12.  Power of Attorney; Further Assurances.

 

(a)  The Obligor authorizes the Secured Party, and does hereby make, constitute and appoint him and his respective agents, heirs or assigns with full power of substitution, as the Obligor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with power, in its own name or in the name of the Obligor, to, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) endorse any debentures, checks, drafts, money orders, or other instruments of payment (including payments payable under or in respect of any policy of insurance) in respect of the Collateral that may come into possession of the Secured Party; (ii) to sign and endorse any UCC financing statement or any invoice, freight or express bill, bill of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts, and other documents relating to the Collateral; (iii) to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; (iv) to demand, collect, receipt for, compromise, settle and sue for monies due in respect of the Collateral; and (v) generally, to do, at the option of the Secured Party, and at the Obligor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party deems necessary to protect, preserve and realize upon the Collateral and the Security Interest granted therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement and the Promissory Note, all as fully and effectually as the Obligor might or could do; and the Obligor hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement and thereafter as long as any of the Obligations shall be outstanding.

 

 

(b)  On a continuing basis, the Obligor will make, execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and record, as the case may be, in the proper filing and recording places in any jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the jurisdictions indicated on Schedule C, attached hereto, and with the Federal Aviation Administration, all such instruments, and take all such action as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as reasonably requested by the Secured Party, to perfect the Security Interest granted hereunder and otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement, or for assuring and confirming to the Secured Party the grant or perfection of a security interest in all the Collateral.

 

(c)  The Obligor hereby irrevocably appoints the Secured Party as the Obligor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Obligor and in the name of the Obligor, from time to time at the discretion of the Secured Party, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including the filing, in its sole discretion, of one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of the Obligor where permitted by law.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States federal court sitting in New York county over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or Federal court. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. The parties hereto further waive any objection to venue in the State of New York and any objection to an action or proceeding in the State of New York on the basis of forum non conveniens.
