In connection with such collections, Borrower may (and, at Lender’s direction, will) take such action as Borrower or the Lender may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection or performance of the Accounts; provided, however, that Lender shall have the right at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to notify the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to Lender and to direct such Account Debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to Borrower thereunder directly to Lender or its designated agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of Borrower and to the extent permitted by applicable law, to enforce collection of any such Accounts and to reasonably adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as Borrower might have done. After receipt by Borrower of a notice from Lender that Lender has notified, intends to notify, or has enforced or intends to enforce Borrower’s rights against the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts as referred to in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, (A) all amounts and proceeds (including Instruments) received by Borrower in respect of the Accounts shall be received in trust for the benefit of Lender, shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower and shall be forthwith paid over to Lender in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied as specified in Section 7.b) hereof, and (B) Borrower will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon.

(iv)     Borrower will, at its expense, promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each notice or other communication received by it by which any other party to any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto purports to exercise any of its rights or affect any of its obligations thereunder, together with a copy of any reply by Borrower thereto.

 

(v)     Borrower will exercise promptly and diligently each and every right which it may have under each material License (other than any right of termination) and will duly perform and observe in all respects all of its obligations under each material License and will take all action reasonably necessary to maintain such Licenses in full force and effect. Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, cancel, terminate, amend or otherwise modify in any respect, or waive any provision of, any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto.

Borrower will cause to be taken all necessary steps in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision thereof to maintain each registration of the Intellectual Property and application for registration of Intellectual Property (other than the Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence), including, without limitation, filing of initial registrations, renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and payment of maintenance fees, filing fees, taxes or other governmental fees.

Borrower shall furnish to the Lender from time to time upon its request statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and Licenses and such other reports in connection with the Intellectual Property and Licenses as the Lender may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and promptly upon request of the Lender, following receipt by the Lender of any such statements, schedules or reports, Borrower shall modify this Agreement by amending Schedule II hereto, as the case may be, to include any Intellectual Property and License, as the case may be, which is or hereafter becomes part of the Collateral under this Agreement and shall execute and authenticate such documents and do such acts as shall be necessary or, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, desirable to subject such Intellectual Property and Licenses to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower may not abandon, surrender or otherwise permit any Intellectual Property to become abandoned, cancelled or invalid without the prior written consent of the Lender, and if any Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, Borrower will take such reasonable action as the Lender shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.

 

(ii)     In no event shall Borrower, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright or the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, or in any similar office or agency of the United States or any country or any political subdivision thereof unless it gives the Lender prior written notice thereof. Upon request of the Lender, Borrower shall execute, authenticate and deliver any and all assignments, agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Lender may reasonably request to evidence the Lender’s security interest hereunder in such Intellectual Property and the General Intangibles of Borrower relating thereto or represented thereby, and Borrower hereby appoints the Lender its attorney-in-fact to execute and/or authenticate and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, and such power (being coupled with an interest) shall be irrevocable until all Obligations are Paid in Full.

Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to attach such updated Schedules to this Agreement and agrees that all Pledged Equity listed on any updated Schedule delivered to the Lender shall for all purposes hereunder be considered Collateral. Borrower agrees that the pledge of the shares of Capital Stock acquired by Borrower of a Foreign Subsidiary may be supplemented by one or more separate pledge agreements, deeds of pledge, share charges, or other similar agreements or instruments, executed and delivered by Borrower in favor of the Lender, which pledge agreements will provide for the pledge of such shares of Capital Stock in accordance with the laws of the applicable foreign jurisdiction. With respect to such shares of Capital Stock, the Lender may, at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, take actions in such foreign jurisdictions that will result in the perfection of the Lien created in such shares of Capital Stock.

 

(n)     Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall only be used by Borrower for general working capital purposes of the Borrower.

 

SECTION 6.     Additional Provisions Concerning the Collateral.

 

(a)     To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and for the purpose of taking any action that the Lender may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, Borrower hereby (i) authorizes the Lender after the occurrence of an Event of Default to execute any such agreements, instruments or other documents in Borrower’s name and to file such agreements, instruments or other documents in Borrower’s name and in any appropriate filing office, (ii) authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file, one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any such financing statements that (A) describe the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property” (or words of similar effect) or that describe or identify the Collateral by type or in any other manner as the Lender may determine regardless of whether any particular asset of Borrower falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Code or whether any particular asset of Borrower constitutes part of the Collateral, and (B) contain any other information required by Part 5 of Article 9 of the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or amendment, including, without limitation, whether Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to Borrower) and (iii) ratifies such authorization to the extent that the Lender has filed any such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, prior to the date hereof. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.

 

(b)     Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of Borrower and in the name of Borrower or otherwise, from time to time in the Lender’s discretion, after the occurrence of an Event of Default to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Lender may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Lender pursuant to Section 5.e) hereof, (ii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any Collateral, (iii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (i) or (ii) above, (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Lender may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Lender with respect to any Collateral, (v) to execute assignments, licenses and other documents to enforce the rights of the Lender with respect to any Collateral, and (vi) to verify any and all information with respect to any and all Accounts. This power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are Paid in Full.

 

 19 

 

 

(c)     For the purpose of enabling the Lender to exercise rights and remedies hereunder, at such time as the Lender shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, Borrower hereby grants to the Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to Borrower) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of Section 5.g) and Section 5.h) hereof, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of its business. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender shall from time to time, upon the request of Borrower, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, which Borrower shall have certified are appropriate (in Borrower’s judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to this clause (c) as to any Intellectual Property). Further, upon the Payment in Full of all of the Obligations, the Lender (subject to Section 10.e) hereof) shall release and reassign to Borrower all of the Lender’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property, and the Licenses, all without recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever. The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by the Lender shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by Borrower in accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c). Borrower hereby releases the Lender from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Lender under the powers of attorney granted herein other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(d)     If Borrower fails to perform any agreement or obligation contained herein, the Lender may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, in the name of Borrower or the Lender, and the expenses of the Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower pursuant to Section 8 hereof and shall be secured by the Collateral.

 

(e)     The powers conferred on the Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Lender shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

 

(f)     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding (i) Borrower shall remain liable under the Licenses and otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Lender of any of its rights hereunder shall not release Borrower from any of its obligations under the Licenses or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, and (iii) the Lender shall not have any obligation or liability by reason of this Agreement under the Licenses or with respect to any of the other Collateral, nor shall the Lender be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

 

 20 

 

 

(g)     As long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and until written notice shall be given to the applicable Borrower:

 

(i)     Borrower shall have the right, from time to time, to vote and give consents with respect to the Pledged Equity, or any part thereof for all purposes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, and no consent shall be given or action taken, which would have the effect of impairing the position or interest of the Lender in respect of the Pledged Equity or which would authorize, effect or consent to:

 

(A)     the dissolution or liquidation, in whole or in part, of a Pledged Entity;

 

(B)     the consolidation or merger of a Pledged Entity with any other Person;

 

(C)     the sale, disposition or encumbrance of all or substantially all of the assets of a Pledged Entity, except for Liens in favor of the Lender;

 

(D)     any change in the authorized number of shares, the stated capital or the authorized share capital of a Pledged Entity or the issuance of any additional shares of its Capital Stock; or

 

(E)     the alteration of the voting rights with respect to the Capital Stock of a Pledged Entity.

 

(h)           (i)    Borrower shall be entitled, from time to time, to collect and receive for its own use all cash dividends and interest paid in respect of the Pledged Equity other than any and all: (A) dividends and interest paid or payable other than in cash in respect of any Pledged Equity, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Equity; (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Pledged Equity in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in capital of a Pledged Entity; and (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed, in respect of principal of, or in redemption of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Equity; provided, however, that until actually paid all rights to such distributions shall remain subject to the Lien created by this Agreement; and

 

(ii)     all dividends and interest (other than such cash dividends and interest as are permitted to be paid to Borrower in accordance with clause (i) above) and all other distributions in respect of any of the Pledged Equity, whenever paid or made, shall be delivered to the Lender to hold as Pledged Equity and shall, if received by Borrower, be received in trust for the benefit of the Lender, be segregated from the other property or funds of Borrower, and be forthwith delivered to the Lender as Pledged Equity in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

 

 21 

 

 

SECTION 7.     Remedies Upon Event of Default; Application of Proceeds. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

 

(a)     The Lender may exercise in respect of the Collateral, 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 Collateral), and also may (i) take absolute control of the Collateral, including, without limitation, transfer into the Lender’s name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the extent the Lender has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive 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 Borrower to, and Borrower hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Lender forthwith, assemble all or part of its respective Collateral as directed by the Lender and make it available to the Lender at a place or places to be designated by the Lender that is reasonably convenient to both parties, and the Lender may enter into and occupy any premises owned or leased by Borrower where the Collateral or any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate the Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to Borrower in respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process the Collateral for sale, (A) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale (including, without limitation, by credit bid), at any of the Lender’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 Lender may deem commercially reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof upon such terms as the Lender may deem commercially reasonable. Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of its respective Collateral shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to Borrower of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of its respective Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Lender 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. Borrower hereby waives any claims against the Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which its respective Collateral 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 Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree, and waives all rights that Borrower may have to require that all or any part of such Collateral be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof. Borrower hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of its respective Collateral by the Lender shall be made without warranty, (ii) the Lender 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 Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (1) upon written notice to Borrower from the Lender after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall cease any use of the Intellectual Property or any trademark, patent or copyright similar thereto for any purpose described in such notice; (2) the Lender may, at any time and from time to time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon 10 days’ prior notice to Borrower, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any of the Intellectual Property, throughout the universe for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Lender shall in its sole discretion determine; and (3) the Lender may, at any time, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 6 hereof or otherwise (such authority being effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), execute and deliver on behalf of Borrower, one or more instruments of assignment of the Intellectual Property (or any application or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.

 

(b)     Any cash held by Lender as Collateral and all Cash Proceeds received by Lender in respect of any sale or disposition of or collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied as follows: first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Lender (including those described in Section 8 hereof); second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due, on a pro rata basis; third to pay interest due under the Notes, on a pro rata basis; fourth, to pay or prepay principal in respect of the Notes, whether or not then due, owing, on a pro rata basis; fifth, to pay or prepay any other Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and manner as the Lender shall elect. Any surplus of such cash or Cash Proceeds held by the Lender and remaining after the Payment in Full 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)     In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, disposition, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Lender is legally entitled, Borrower shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the rate specified in the Notes for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and other charges of any attorneys employed by the Lender to collect such deficiency.

 

 22 

 

 

(d)     To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as Borrower, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Lender against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Lender, to obtain the services of brokers, investment bankers, consultants, attorneys and other professionals to assist the Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Borrower acknowledges that the purpose of this section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Lender would be commercially reasonable in the Lender’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this section shall be construed to grant any rights to Borrower or to impose any duties on the Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this section.

 

(e)     The Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral) 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 Lender’s rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that Borrower lawfully may, Borrower hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Lender’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

 

SECTION 8.     Indemnity and Expenses.

 

(a)     Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements of such Person’s counsel) to the extent that they arise out of or otherwise result from this Agreement, the Notes and/or the Guaranty (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement and the Notes), except to the extent resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction no longer subject to appeal.

 

 23 

 

 

(b)     Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender upon demand the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for the Lender and of any experts and agents (including, without limitation, any collateral trustee which may act as agent of the Lender), which the Lender may incur in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, recordation, administration, amendment, waiver or other modification or termination of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Lender hereunder, or (iv) the failure by Borrower to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

 

SECTION 9.     Notices, Etc. All notices, requests, demands and other communications in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if (a) delivered personally, on the date of such delivery, (b) upon non-automated confirmation of receipt when transmitted via facsimile or electronic mail (but only if followed by transmittal by nationally recognized overnight courier or by hand for delivery on the next Business Day), or (c) on receipt (or refusal to accept delivery) after dispatch by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, or by a nationally recognized overnight courier (with confirmation), addressed, in each case, as follows:

(b)     No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right reasonably hereunder or under the Notes shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right reasonably preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

(c)     Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 25 

 

 

(ii)     Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any other Transaction Document or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim, defense or objection that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under Section 9 hereof and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

BORROWER AND LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREE NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

FORM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

This INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT (as amended, modified, supplemented, renewed, restated or replaced from time to time, this “IP Security Agreement”), dated November 21, 2017, is made by MoviePass Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”) in favor of Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Lender”). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings respectively ascribed thereto in the Security Agreement (as defined below).

 

WHEREAS, On August 15, 2017, Borrower and Lender entered into that certain Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Lender agreed to purchase a majority stake in the capital stock of Borrower (the “Acquisition”).

 

WHEREAS, in connection with the Acquisition, Borrower has issued to Lender certain subordinated convertible promissory notes (the “Existing Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $19,050,000 representing funds advanced by Lender to Borrower to date (the “Existing Loans”) and Borrower and Lender anticipate that Lender may advance additional funds to Borrower pursuant to additional promissory notes (“Future Notes”) prior to the consummation of the Acquisition (the “Future Loans”) (collectively, the Existing Notes and the Future Notes are referred to in this Agreement as the “Notes” and the Existing Loans and the Future Loans are referred to in this Agreement as the “Loans”).

 

WHEREAS, Borrower has asked Lender to execute a Commercial Guaranty in favor of PayPal, Inc. (the “Guaranty”).

 

WHEREAS, Lender is willing to make the Future Loans to Borrower and to execute the Guaranty provided Borrower grants to Lender a first priority security interest in and lien upon all of Borrower’s property now owned or hereafter acquired to secure the repayment of the Notes, including the payment of all interest and/or penalties thereon, and to reimburse Lender for any payments made by Lender pursuant to the Guaranty;

 

WHEREAS, Lender has made, and is willing to make the Future Loans to Borrower and to execute the Guaranty provided Borrower grants to Lender a first priority security interest in and lien upon all of Borrower’s property now owned or hereafter acquired to secure the repayment of the Notes, including the payment of all interest and/or penalties thereon, and to reimburse Lender for any payments made by Lender pursuant to the Guaranty;

 

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the obtaining of the Future Loans and the execution of the Guaranty that Borrower has executed and delivered that certain Security and Pledge Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2017, made by the Borrower to Lender (as amended, modified, supplemented, renewed, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Security Agreement”); and

 

WHEREAS, under the terms of the Security Agreement, Borrower has granted to Lender a security interest in and lien upon, among other property, certain intellectual property of the Borrower and has agreed as a condition thereof to execute this IP Security Agreement for recording with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office and other governmental authorities.

 

WHEREAS, Borrower has determined that the execution, delivery and performance of this IP Security Agreement directly benefits, and is in the best interest of, the Borrower.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements herein and in order to induce Lender to make the Future Loans to Borrower and to execute the Guaranty, Borrower agrees with Lender as follows:

 

 29

(i)     the Patents and Patent applications set forth in Schedule A hereto;

 

(ii)     the Trademark and service mark registrations and applications set forth in Schedule B hereto (provided that no security interest shall be granted in United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark applications under applicable federal law), together with the goodwill symbolized thereby;

 

(iii)     all Copyrights, whether registered or unregistered, now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower, including, without limitation, the copyright registrations and applications and exclusive copyright licenses set forth in Schedule C hereto;

 

(iv)     all reissues, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, extensions, renewals and reexaminations of any of the foregoing, all rights in the foregoing provided by international treaties or conventions, all rights corresponding thereto throughout the world and all other rights of any kind whatsoever of Borrower accruing thereunder or pertaining thereto;

 

(v)     any and all claims for damages and injunctive relief for past, present and future infringement, dilution, misappropriation, violation, misuse or breach with respect to any of the foregoing, with the right, but not the obligation, to sue for and collect, or otherwise recover, such damages; and

 

(vi)     any and all proceeds of, collateral for, income, royalties and other payments now or hereafter due and payable with respect to, and supporting obligations relating to, any and all of the Collateral of or arising from any of the foregoing.

 

SECTION 2.     Security for Obligations. The grant of a security interest in and lien upon, the Collateral by Borrower under this IP Security Agreement secures the payment of all Obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Notes, the Guaranty and the Security Agreement, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, premiums, penalties, fees, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise.

 

SECTION 3.     Recordation. Borrower authorizes and requests that the Register of Copyrights, the Commissioner for Patents and the Commissioner for Trademarks and any other applicable government officer record this IP Security Agreement.

 

SECTION 4.     Execution in Counterparts. This IP Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

SECTION 5.     Grants, Rights and Remedies. This IP Security Agreement has been entered into in conjunction with the provisions of the Security Agreement. Borrower does hereby acknowledge and confirm that the grant of the security interest hereunder to, and the rights and remedies of, Lender with respect to the Collateral are more fully set forth in the Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein.

SECTION 6.     Notices. All notices shall be given in accordance with the notice provisions of the Security Agreement.

 

SECTION 7.     Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial.

 

(i)     All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.

 

(ii)     Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under the Notes or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim, defense or objection that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under Section 9 of the Security Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action against Borrower in any other jurisdiction to collect on a Borrower’s obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of Lender.

BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

 

(v)     Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action, suit or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential damages.
