NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Borrower and Guarantor hereby agree to the following:

THE UCC SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL CONTAIN the following provisions:

(a) That the Government may enter upon any premises where the Equipment may be located and marshal, secure, protect, and do all things necessary to preserve the Equipment immediately upon the Borrower’s default, but before any judicial action regarding such default; and

(b) Such other provisions as the Government deems necessary to accomplish the intent and purpose of the Approval Letter and otherwise protect its interest; and

(c) Omega Protein, Inc., and Omega Protein Corporation, agree that none of these corporations will enter into any transaction or agreement with any party which will result in that party having a secured interest in the Equipment unless that party first enters into a written agreement, with provisions acceptable to the Government, that:

(i) Except for purchase money lien holders, recognize the Government’s senior interest in, and sole rights to, the Equipment or proceeds of the Equipment’s liquidation; and

3

(ii) Agree not to interfere in any way with, but instead to cooperate in all reasonable ways with, the Government entering upon any property owned or leased by the Borrower in order to marshal, secure, protect, and do all things necessary to preserve the Equipment.

Further, if the Borrower fails to do so, the Borrower agrees that the Government may use, for the purpose of executing and otherwise perfecting whatever documents may be required to effect the grant to the Government of such a full security interest in such fisheries conservation and management allocation, the attorney-in-fact authority conferred upon the Government by ARTICLE IX of this agreement.

OTHER COLLATERAL: Any new, different, substitute or other collateral which may, from time to time, be provided by the Borrower or the Guarantor to the Government, will be subject to all of the covenants and provisions of all of the documents executed in connection with this transaction, including, but not limited to the Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, this Financial Agreement, the Promissory Note, the Approval Letter, and UCC security interests.

FAILURE OF THE BORROWER TO IMMEDIATELY COMPLY WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S DEMAND FOR SURRENDER OF THE VESSEL WILL CAUSE THE POSSESSION OF THE VESSEL BY THE BORROWER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, POSSESSION AND CONTROL OF THE VESSEL BY A MASTER OR CREW MEMBER ON BOARD THE VESSEL) TO BE UNLAWFUL AND TO CONSTITUTE A CONVERSION OF THE VESSEL, ITS APPURTENANCES AND EQUIPMENT, THEREBY SUBJECTING THE BORROWER (EXPRESSLY INCLUDING, IF APPLICABLE, ITS OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS) TO ALL FINES, PENALTIES AND ACTIONS WHICH THE GOVERNMENT DEEMS APPLICABLE AND APPROPRIATE.

(d) Foreclose this Mortgage pursuant to the terms and provisions of the 46 USC, Chapter 313, or by other judicial process as may be provided in the statutes; and

11

(e) In addition to any and all other rights, powers, and remedies elsewhere in this Mortgage or by law granted to and conferred upon the Government, sell the Vessel upon such terms and conditions as it may deem to be for its best advantage, including the right to sell and dispose of the Vessel free from any claim of or by the Borrower, at public sale, by sealed bids or otherwise, after first giving notice of the time and place of sale, with a general description of the property by first publishing notice of any such sale for ten (10) consecutive days, except Sundays, in some newspaper of general circulation at the place designated for such sale, and by mailing notice of such sale to the Borrower at its last known address; such sale may be held at such place and at such time as the Government in such notice may have specified, or may be adjourned by the Government from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale, and without further notice of publication and the Government may make any such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned; and any such sale may be conducted without bringing the Vessel to the place designated for such sale and in such manner as the Government may deem to be for its best advantage, and the Government may become the purchaser at any such sale, and shall have the right to credit on the purchase price any or all sums of money due to the Government under the Promissory Note, or otherwise hereunder. THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SALE OF THE VESSEL PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION WILL NOT (NOTWITHSTANDING FEDERAL OR STATE LAW TO THE CONTRARY, IF ANY, ) IMPAIR OR LIMIT THE GOVERNMENT’S LEGAL RIGHT TO COLLECT FROM THE BORROWER OR GUARANTOR ANY DEFICIENCY REMAINING AFTER THE SALE. IF ANY SUCH FEDERAL OR STATE LAWS OR LEGAL PRECEDENTS MAY BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT THE GOVERNMENT’S RIGHTS TO COLLECTION OF SAID DEFICIENCY FROM THE BORROWER, THEN BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER GIVES UP THE RIGHT TO AVAIL ITSELF OF SUCH LAWS AND/OR DEFENSES.

(f) RETAKE AND/OR SELL THE EQUIPMENT WITHOUT LEGAL PROCESS as provided by the Real Estate Mortgages, Security Agreements, and Preferred Ship Mortgages, or any other document which has been executed by or on behalf of the Borrower; and

(g) Make demand upon, institute action against, foreclose collateral, if any, or make any attempt of any nature to collect outstanding sums from any Guarantor, whether or not similar efforts have been made against the Borrower.

1. To the extent that any of the terms and conditions of this Financial Agreement are inconsistent or in contradiction with the terms and conditions of any other agreement between the Government and the Borrower, including but not limited to previously executed Title XI Financial Agreements, then the terms of this Financial Agreement shall govern, otherwise, all such terms and conditions of such other agreements will continue with full force and effect.

2. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision(s) of this Title XI Financial Agreement shall not render any other provision(s) herein unenforceable or invalid.

ARTICLE IX: POWER OF ATTORNEY

1. At closing, Borrower must certify in writing that, to the best of its knowledge, there are currently no defects or environmental hazards on or about the Collateral.

2. That Borrower and Guarantor will hold the Government harmless from any claim or duty arising from environmental defects or hazards associated with the Collateral which arise at any time before, during or following conclusion of this transaction.
