This Section is intended to be a security agreement pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code for any of the items specified above as part of the Collateral which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, and the Company hereby grants Payee a security interest in said items. The Company agrees that Payee may file any appropriate document in the appropriate index or filing office as a financing statement for any of the items specified above as part of the Collateral and the Company shall reimburse Payee for all fees and expenses associated with such filing. In addition, the Company agrees to execute and deliver to Payee, upon Payee’s request, any financing statements, as well as extensions, renewals and amendments thereof, and reproductions of this Agreement in such form as Payee may reasonably require to perfect a security interest with respect to said items.

Without the prior written consent of Payee, the Company shall not create or suffer to be created pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code any other security interest in the Collateral, other than the Security Interests of Secured Party, including replacements and additions thereto. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Secured Party shall have the remedies of a Payee under the Uniform Commercial Code and, at Secured Party’s option, may also invoke the other remedies provided in this Note as to such items.

(ii) |  | Rights of Secured Party. Upon an Event of Default, Secured Party may require the Company to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at the place to be designated by Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to the parties. Secured Party may sell all or any part of the Collateral as a whole or in parcels either by public auction, private sale, or other method of disposition. Secured Party may bid at any public sale on all or any portion of the Collateral. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of the type customarily sold on a recognized market, Secured Party shall give the Company reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, and notice given at least 10 days before the time of the sale or other disposition shall be conclusively presumed to be reasonable. A public sale in the following fashion shall be conclusively presumed to be reasonable:

(a) |  | Notice shall be given at least 10 days before the date of sale by publication once in a newspaper of general circulation published in the county in which the sale is to be held;

(b) |  | The sale shall be held in a county in which the Collateral or any part is located or in a county in which the Company has a place of business;

(c) |  | Payment shall be in cash or by certified check immediately following the close of the sale;

(d) |  | The sale shall be by auction, but it need not be by a professional auctioneer; and

(e) |  | The Collateral may be sold as is and without any preparation for sale.

(v) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, Secured Party shall be under no obligation to offer to sell the Collateral. In the event Secured Party offer to sell the Collateral, Secured Party will be under no obligation to consummate a sale of the Collateral if, in their reasonable business judgment, none of the offers received by them reasonably approximates the fair value of the Collateral.

(vi) In the event Secured Party elects not to sell the Collateral, Secured Party may elect to follow the procedures set forth in the Uniform Commercial Code for retaining the Collateral in satisfaction of the Company’s obligation, subject to the Company’s rights under such procedures.

(vii) In addition to the rights under this Agreement, in the Event of Default by the Company, Secured Party shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for the Collateral as a matter of right whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and any receiver appointed may serve without bond. Employment by Secured Party shall not disqualify a person from serving as receiver.

(viii) Additional Rights of Secured Party. The Company shall execute and deliver to Secured Party concurrently with the Company’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and at any time thereafter at the reasonable request of Secured Party, all financing statements, continuation financing statements, fixture filings, security agreements, mortgages, pledges, assignments, endorsements of certificates of title, applications for title, affidavits, reports, notices, schedules of accounts, letters of authority, and all other documents that Secured Party may reasonably request, in form reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party, to perfect and maintain perfected Secured Party’s continuing security interests in the Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Offering Documents, the Company hereby authorizes Secured Party to file and/or record such financing statements and other documents as Secured Party deems reasonably necessary to perfect and maintain Secured Party’s continuing security interest in the Collateral, including, but not limited to, any and all filings recognized by the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the purposes of perfecting a security interest in any Collateral that is considered intellectual property of the Company. The Company agree any such financing statements may contain an “all asset” or “all property” description of the Collateral.

(ix) The Security Interest shall terminate when all the Secured Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in full, at which time all Uniform Commercial Code termination statements and similar documents which the Company shall reasonably request to evidence such termination shall be executed.

c. |  | give, execute, deliver, file and/or record any financing statement, notice, instrument, document, agreement or other papers that may be necessary (in the reasonable judgment of the Agent) to create, preserve, perfect or validate any security interest granted pursuant hereto or to enable the Agent to exercise and enforce their rights hereunder with respect to such security interest, including, without limitation, causing any or all of the Stock Collateral to be transferred of record into the name of the Agent or its nominee (and the Agent agrees that if any Stock Collateral is transferred into its name or the name of its nominee, the Agent will thereafter promptly give to the Company copies of any notices and communications received by it with respect to the Stock Collateral), provided that notices to account debtors in respect of any Accounts or Instruments shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.09 below;

In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of the Company, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, which the Company shall have certified are appropriate (in its judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above. Further, upon the payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations or earlier expiration of this Agreement or release of the Collateral, the Agent shall grant back to the Company the license granted pursuant to clause (i) immediately above.

a. |  | the Company shall, at the request of the Agent, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Agent and the Company, designated in its request;

b. |  | the Agent may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral with the consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld;

c. |  | the Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not said Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and the Company agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

d. |  | the Agent in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of the Company or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and

e. |  | the Agent may, upon 30 Business Days, prior written notice to the Company of the time and place, with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Agent, or any of its respective agents, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Agent deems best, and for cash or on credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of time or place thereof (except such notice as is required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived) and the Agent or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale), and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Company, any such demand, notice or right and equity being hereby expressly waived and released. In the event of any sale, assignment, or otherd isposition of any of the Trademark Collateral, the goodwill of the Business connected with and symbolized by the Trademark Collateral subject to such disposition shall be included, and the Company shall supply to the Agent or its designee, for inclusion in such sale, assignment or other disposition, all Intellectual Property relating to such Trademark Collateral. The Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned.

f. |  | The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 4.05, including by virtue of the exercise of the license granted to the Agent in Section 4.04(a)(i) hereof, shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.09 hereof.

g. |  | The Company recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Company acknowledges that any such private sales to an unrelated third party in an arm’s length transaction may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the respective Issuer thereof to register it for public sale.

4.06 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Company shall remain liable for any deficiency.

4.07 Removals, etc. Without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Agent or unless otherwise required by law, the Company shall not (a) maintain any of its books or records with respect to the Collateral at any office or maintain its chief executive office or its principal place of business at any place, or permit any Inventory or Equipment to be located anywhere other than at the address indicated for the Company in Section 6(g) of the Purchase Agreement or at one of the locations identified in Schedule 4.1 hereto or in transit from one of such locations to another or (b) change its corporate name, or the name under which it does business, from the name shown on the signature page hereto.

4.08 Private Sale. The Agent shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale to an unrelated third party in an arm’s length transaction pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. The Company hereby waives any claims against the Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such 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 Secured Obligations, even if the Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

4.09 Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by the Agent under this Section 4, shall be applied by the Agent:

First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, and all expenses, and advances made or incurred by the Agent in connection therewith;

Next, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations in each case equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing to each of the Purchasers; and

Finally, to the payment to the Company, or its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining.

As used in this Section 4, “proceeds” of Collateral shall mean cash, securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind of, Collateral, including any thereof received under any reorganization, liquidation or adjustment of debt of the Company or any issuer of or obligor on any of the Collateral.

4.10 Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Agent while no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Agent is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of the Company for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4 and taking any action and executing any instruments which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Purchasers shall be entitled under this Section 4 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of the Company representing any dividend, payment, or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.

4.11 Perfection; Name Changes. (a) Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or within 5 Business Days following the date hereof, the Company shall file such financing statements and other documents to perfect the security interests granted by Section 3 of this Agreement (including, without limitation United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) filings to perfect the security interest in the Intellectual Property) that may be perfected by such filing. The Company covenants that it shall provide the Purchasers and the Placement Agent with at least ten (10) business days’ prior written notice before effecting any name change for the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Any breach of this covenant shall be considered an Event of Default hereunder.

When all Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full under the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate, and the Agent shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the Company and to be released and cancelled all licenses and rights referred to in Section 4.04(b)(i) hereof.
