the Pledged Property, in addition to any other rights and remedies
provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of the rights
and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code
(whether or not the Code applies to the affected Pledged Property),
and also may (i) take absolute control of the Pledged Property,
including, without limitation, transfer into the Secured Party's
name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the extent the
Secured Party has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive,
for the benefit of the Secured Party, all payments made thereon,
give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and
otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright
owner thereof, (ii) require the Grantor to assemble all or
part of the Pledged Property as directed by the Secured Party and
make it available to the Secured Party at a place or places to be
designated by the Secured Party that is reasonably convenient to
both parties, and the Secured Party may enter into and occupy any
premises owned or leased by a Grantor where the Pledged Property or
any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in
order to effectuate the Secured Party's rights and remedies
hereunder or under law, without obligation to the Grantor in
respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as
specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process
the Pledged Property for sale, (A) sell the Pledged Property
or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private
sale, at any of the Secured Party's offices or elsewhere, for cash,
on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and
upon such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially
reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or dispose of the Pledged
Property or any part thereof upon such terms as the Secured Party
may deem commercially reasonable. The Grantor agrees
that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of the
Pledged Property shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days'
notice to the Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or
the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the
Pledged Property is to be made shall constitute reasonable
notification. The Secured Party shall not be obligated
to make any sale or other disposition of any Pledged Property
regardless of notice of sale having been given. The
Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to
time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such
sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to
which it was so adjourned. The Grantor hereby waives any
claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that
the price at which the Pledged Property may have been sold at a
private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained
at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the
Obligations, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer
received and does not offer such Pledged Property to more than one
offeree, and waives all rights that the Grantor may have to require
that all or any part of such Pledged Property be marshaled upon any
sale (public or private) thereof. The Grantor hereby
acknowledges that (i) any such sale of the Pledged Property by
the Secured Party may be made without warranty, (ii) the
Secured Party may specifically disclaim any warranties of title,
possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, and (iii) such
actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not
adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such sale of
Pledged Property.
(b) Any cash held by the Secured Party as
Pledged Property and all cash proceeds received by the Secured
Party in respect of any sale of or collection from, or other
realization upon, all or any part of the Pledged Property shall be
applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Secured Party
pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof) by the Secured Party against, all
or any part of the Obligations in such order as the Secured Party
shall elect, consistent with the provisions of the Securities
Purchase Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or cash
proceeds held by the Secured Party and remaining after the
indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations
shall be paid over to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to
receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall
direct.
(c) The Grantor hereby acknowledges
that if the Secured Party complies with any applicable state,
provincial, or federal law requirements in connection with a
disposition of the Pledged Property, such compliance will not
adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other
disposition of the Pledged Property.
(d) The Secured Party shall not be required to
marshal any present or future collateral security (including, but
not limited to, this Agreement and the Pledged Property) 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 the Secured Party's
rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and
other assurances of payment shall be c
