WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Seller to execute and perform under the Acquisition Agreement that Grantor shall have executed and delivered this IP Security Agreement to the Seller;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the willingness of the Seller to enter into the Acquisition Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. Grant of Security Interest.

(a) The U.S and foreign copyrights, associated copyright registrations and applications for copyright registration, set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (collectively, the “Copyrights”);
(b) The U.S. and foreign patents and patent applications set forth on Schedule B attached hereto, including, without limitation, divisions, continuations, renewals, reissues, extensions and continuations-in-part of the same (collectively, the “Patents”);
(c) The U.S., state and foreign trademark and service mark registrations, trademark and service mark applications set forth on Schedule C attached hereto and all goodwill associated with the foregoing (collectively, the “Trademarks”);
(d) The domain names and registrations set forth on Schedule D attached hereto and all goodwill associated with the foregoing (collectively, the “Domain Names”);
(e) Any and all claims and causes of action for past, present or future infringement of any of the IP Collateral, with the right, but not the obligation, to sue for and collect damages for infringement of the IP Collateral;
(f) Any and all licenses or rights granted under any of the IP Collateral, and all license fees and royalties arising from such licenses or rights, in each case to the extent permitted by such licenses or rights;
(g) Any and all amendments, renewals, extensions, reissuances and replacements of any of the IP Collateral; and
(h) Any and all products and proceeds of any of the foregoing.
2. Requested Recordation. Grantor authorizes and requests that the Register of Copyrights and the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks (and any state, foreign or other authority to which this IP Security Agreement is submitted) file and record this IP Security Agreement (and any corresponding or separate forms of such jurisdiction) in order to publicly reflect the interests of the Seller in the IP Collateral.
3. Assignment. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Seller an absolute assignment transferring its entire right, title, and interest in and to the IP Collateral to the Seller.
4. Power of Attorney. Grantor hereby irrevocably grants to the Seller, a power of attorney, to act as Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the name, place and stead of Grantor, from time to time in the Seller’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Seller may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this IP Security Agreement.
