The Bank agrees with the Borrower that the Bank will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Bank and so long as such procedures will not result in the Bank’s loss of control, for the Borrower to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under UCC Section 9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to make without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by the Borrower with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

4.6           Letter-of-Credit Rights. If the Borrower is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of the Borrower, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank thereof and, at the request and option of the Bank, the Borrower shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Bank of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit, or (ii) arrange for the Bank to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Bank agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of the letter of credit are to be applied as provided in the Loan Documents.

10.         Insurance.

10.1         Maintenance of Insurance. The Borrower will maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business against such casualties and contingencies as shall be in accordance with general practices of businesses engaged in similar activities in similar geographic areas. Such insurance shall be in such minimum amounts that the Borrower will not be deemed a co-insurer under applicable insurance laws, regulations and policies and otherwise shall be in such amounts, contain such terms to be in such forms and be for such periods as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Bank. In addition, all such insurance shall be payable to the Bank as lender’s loss payee under a “standard” or “New York” lender’s loss payee clause. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower will (i) keep all of its physical property insured with casualty or physical hazard insurance on an “all risks” basis, with electronic data processing coverage, with a full replacement cost endorsement and an “agreed amount” clause in an amount equal to 100% of the full replacement cost of such property, (ii) maintain all such workers’ compensation or similar insurance as may be required by law and (iii) maintain, in amounts and with deductibles equal to those generally maintained by business engaged in similar activities in similar geographic areas, general public liability insurance against claims of bodily injury, death or property damage occurring, on, in or about the properties of the Borrower; business interruption insurance; and product liability insurance.

10.2         Insurance Proceeds. The proceeds of any casualty insurance in respect of any casualty loss of any of the Collateral shall, subject to the rights, if any, of other parties with a prior interest in the property covered thereby, (i) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and to the extent that the amount of such proceeds is less than $25,000.00, be disbursed to the Borrower for direct application by the Borrower solely to the repair or replacement of the Borrower’s property so damaged or destroyed and (ii) in all other circumstances, be held by the Bank as cash collateral, upon such terms and conditions as the Bank may reasonably prescribe, for direct application by the Borrower solely to the repair or replacement of the Borrower’s property so damaged or destroyed, or upon the Borrower’s prior written consent, the Bank may apply all or any part of such proceeds to the Obligations with the Commitment (if not then terminated) being reduced by the amount so applied to the Obligations.

10.3         Notice of Cancellation, etc. All policies of insurance shall provide for at least 30 days prior written cancellation notice to the Bank. In the event of failure by the Borrower to provide and maintain insurance as herein provided, the Bank may, at its option and upon prior written notice to the Borrower, provide such insurance and charge the amount thereof to the Borrower. The Borrower shall furnish the Bank with certificates of insurance and policies evidencing compliance with the foregoing insurance provision.

11.         Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.

11.1         Expenses Incurred by Bank. In its discretion and upon prior written notice to the Borrower, the Bank may discharge taxes and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral, make repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees or, if the debtor fails to do so, insurance premiums. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank on demand for any and all expenditures so made. The Bank shall have no obligation to the Borrower to make any such expenditures, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Borrower of any default.

11.2         Bank’s Obligations and Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall remain liable under each contract or agreement comprised in the Collateral to be observed or performed by the Borrower thereunder. The Bank shall not have any obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Bank of any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Bank be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Bank in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Bank or to which the Bank may be entitled at any time or times. The Bank’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the Bank deals with similar property for its own account.

12.         Securities and Deposits. The Bank may at any time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at its option, transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral, receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or apply it to the Obligations. Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Bank may following and during the continuance of an Event of Default demand, sue for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it deems desirable with respect to the Collateral. Regardless of the adequacy of Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Bank to the Borrower may at any time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations.

13.         Notification to Account Debtors and Other Persons Obligated on Collateral. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Bank, notify account debtors and other persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the security interest of the Bank in any account, chattel paper, general intangible, instrument or other Collateral and that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Bank or to any financial institution designated by the Bank as the Bank’s agent therefor, and the Bank may itself, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon prior written notice to the Borrower, so notify account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral. After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, the Borrower shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Borrower as trustee for the Bank without commingling the same with other funds of the Borrower and shall turn the same over to the Bank in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments. The Bank shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Bank to the Obligations, such proceeds to be immediately entered after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise to them.

14.         Power of Attorney.

14.1         Appointment and Powers of Bank. The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Bank and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Borrower or in the Bank’s own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives said attorneys the power and right, on behalf of the Borrower, without notice to or assent by the Borrower, to do the following: upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral in such manner as is consistent with the Uniform Commercial Code of the State and as fully and completely as though the Bank were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do at the Borrower’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Bank deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Bank’s security interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the Borrower might do, including, without limitation, (i) the filing and prosecuting of registration and transfer applications with the appropriate federal or local agencies or authorities with respect to trademarks, copyrights and patentable inventions and processes, (ii) upon written notice to the Borrower, the exercise of voting rights with respect to voting securities, which rights may be exercised, if the Bank so elects, with a view to causing the liquidation in a commercially reasonable manner of assets of the issuer of any such securities and (iii) the execution, delivery and recording, in connection with any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, of the endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such Collateral.

14.2         Ratification by Borrower. To the extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

14.3         No Duty on Bank. The power conferred on the Bank hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Bank shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act, except for the Bank’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.         Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Bank may, without notice to or demand upon the Borrower, declare this Agreement to be in default, and the Bank shall thereafter have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial of the State or of any jurisdiction in which Collateral is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Bank may, so far as the Borrower can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom. The Bank may in its discretion require the Borrower to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of the Borrower’s principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Bank may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Bank shall give to the Borrower at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that ten (10) Business Days prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In addition, the Borrower waives any and all rights that is may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Bank’s rights hereunder, including without limitation, its right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights with respect thereto.

16.         [Reserved].

17.         No Waiver by Bank, etc. The Bank shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights upon or under the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Bank. No delay or omission on the part of the Bank in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Bank with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Bank deems expedient.

18.         Suretyship Waivers by Borrower. The Borrower waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description. With respect to both the Obligations and the Collateral, the Borrower assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Bank may deem advisable. The Bank shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income thereon, nor as to the preservation of rights against prior parties, nor as to the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth in Section 11.2. The Borrower further waives any and all other suretyship defenses.

19.         Marshalling. The Bank shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to this 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, and all of its rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, the Borrower hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Bank’s rights under this 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, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

20.         Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Bank in protecting, preserving or enforcing the Bank’s rights under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any of the Collateral.
