OTS is indebted to Allezoe in the amount of $469,826.92 for funds advanced by Allezoe to OTS to support its operations (the “Debt”); and

Allezoe may, in its own name or in the name of a designee or nominee, buy any of the Pledged Collateral at any public sale held in accordance with the foregoing provisions and, if permitted by applicable law, at any private sale. All reasonable invoiced out-of-pocket expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of, or incident to, the enforcement of any of the provisions hereof will be recoverable from the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral.  In view of the fact that federal and state securities laws may impose certain restrictions on the method by which a sale of the Pledged Collateral may be effected after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Parent agrees that upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, Allezoe may, from time to time, attempt to sell all or any part of the Pledged Collateral by means of a private placement, restricting the prospective purchasers to those who can make the representations and agreements required of purchasers of securities in private placements. In so doing, Allezoe may solicit offers to buy the Pledged Collateral, or any part of it, for cash, from a limited number of investors deemed by Allezoe in its judgment, to be responsible parties who might be interested in purchasing the Pledged Collateral, and if Allezoe solicits such offers from not less than three (3) such investors, then the acceptance by Allezoe of the highest offer obtained therefrom will be deemed to be a commercially reasonable method of disposition of the Pledged Collateral.

In addition, upon the occurrence (and during the continuance past and applicable grace or cure period) of an Event of Default, upon Parent’s receipt of written notice from Allezoe that it is invoking its rights under this Agreement, all rights of Parent to exercise the voting and other rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise and to receive cash dividends and interest payments, will cease, and all such rights will thereupon become vested in Allezoe as provided in Section 6.

14.

Authority of Allezoe.  Allezoe will have and be entitled to exercise all such powers hereunder as are specifically delegated to Allezoe by this Agreement, together with such powers as are incidental thereto. Allezoe may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees. Neither Allezoe, nor any director, manager, officer, agent or employee of



6






Allezoe, will be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Parent hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Allezoe and/or any such director, manager, officer, agent or employee from and against any and all liability incurred by any of them, hereunder or in connection herewith, unless such liability is due to its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.

Termination.  This Agreement will terminate when (i) all the Liabilities (other than contingent indemnification obligations)  have been fully paid and performed and the Agreement has been terminated, or, (ii) OTS has directly assumed all obligations to pay the Liabilities, in such form and with such security as is acceptable to Allezoe, at which time Allezoe will promptly reassign and redeliver (or cause to be reassigned and redelivered) to Parent, or to such person or persons as Parent will designate, against receipt, such of the Pledged Collateral (if any) as has not been sold or otherwise applied by Allezoe pursuant to the terms hereof and still held by it hereunder, together with appropriate instruments of reassignment and release. Any such reassignment will be without recourse upon or warranty by Allezoe and at the expense of Parent.

16.

Expenses.  Parent agrees to reimburse Allezoe, on demand for any and all reasonable invoiced out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which Allezoe may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody or preservation of, or the registration of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Allezoe hereunder, or (iv) the failure by Parent to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

17.

Security Interest Absolute.  All rights of Allezoe and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of Parent hereunder, will be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(i)

any lack of validity or enforceability of the Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii)

any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Liabilities, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Agreement;

(iii)

any exchange, surrender, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Liabilities; or

(iv)

any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Parent in respect of the Liabilities or of this Agreement.

18.

Amendments, Waivers and Consents.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to any departure by Parent herefrom, will in any event be effective unless the in writing and signed by Allezoe and Parent, and then such amendment,



7






waiver or consent will be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

19.

Notices.  Any notice required or desired to be served, given or delivered hereunder must be in writing (including facsimile transmission) in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

20.

Continuing Security Interest.  This Agreement will create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and will (i) remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the Liabilities and the termination of the Agreement; (ii) be binding upon Parent, its successors and assigns; and (iii) inure to the benefit of Allezoe and its respective successors, transferees and permitted assigns.

21.

Waivers.  Parent waives presentment and demand for payment of any of the Liabilities, protest and notice of dishonor or default with respect to any of the Liabilities, and all other notices to which Parent might otherwise be entitled, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Agreement.

22.

Governing Law; Terms.  This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles. Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, terms defined in Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC are used herein as defined in the UCC. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but, if any provision of this Agreement is interpreted in such manner as to be ineffective or invalid under applicable law, such provisions will be ineffective or invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

23.

Definitions and Interpretation.  The singular will include the plural and vice versa as the text will indicate. The word “will” is intended to have the same meaning as “shall” and means mandatory or obligatory and not permissive.

24.

Section Headings.  The section headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and will not affect in any way the interpretation of any of the provisions hereof.

25.

Loan Document.  In addition to and without limitation of any of the foregoing, this agreement is a Loan Document.

26.

Counterparts; Facsimile Signature.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (which taken together, as applicable, will constitute one and the same instrument) and by facsimile or electronic transmission, which facsimile or electronic transmission will be considered original executed counterparts.  Each party to this Agreement agrees that it will be bound by its own facsimile signature and that it accepts the facsimile signature of each other party.
