8.2.1.1.           Foreclosure on Collateral . The Majority Investors (or the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of the Majority Investors) may foreclose on the Collateral or exercise other remedies with respect to the Collateral as set forth under the Security Agreement.

In such event, the Company’s sole right and interest in such special purpose entity shall be to retain any Monetization Payments (after payment of expenses of the entity, including expenses in pursuing monetization activities related to the Patents) net of the payment obligations of the Company pursuant to Articles III and IV and Sections 10.1 and 10.2 , which shall be distributed, at the Company’s expense, by the special purpose entity to the Collateral Agent or Investors in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, as applicable.

As liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the parties are agreed that the amount due on any acceleration on account of the Fixed Return and the 2(x) Return shall be the maximum distribution payable with respect to such interests under Section 4.1 (after deducting amounts previously distributed under Section 4.1 with respect to such interests), and the amount due on any acceleration on account of the Contingent Return, shall be equal to 12% of the “Net Patent FMV”, such being the fair market value of the Patents as of the date of such acceleration, reduced by the amounts payable on such acceleration on account of the Notes, Fixed Return and 2(x) Return as of such date; provided, that in the event of a Full Recourse Event, the Net Patent Value shall be deemed increased by the amount of any reduction in the value of the Patents or Monetization Payments on account of a Bad Act and/or by the amount of any Misappropriation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Document, except as set forth otherwise in Section 8.2.2 , the sole and exclusive recourse of the Investors and the Collateral Agent arising out of or in connection with an uncured Event of Default or any other breach of this Agreement or any other Document by the Company shall be the recourse set forth in this Sections 8.2.1.1 through 8.2.1.5 , and the Investors and Collateral Agent each agree that they will not, individually or collectively, seek to enforce any monetary judgment with respect to or against any assets of the Company other than the Patents and any Monetization Payments, and any enforcement of any monetary judgment with respect to or against the Patents or Monetization Payments shall be pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents.

8.2.2.      Additional Remedies in the Event of Bad Acts . Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, to the extent that an Event of Default arises either (x) on account of payments required to be made to the Investors or the Collateral Agent or deposited into the Collateral Account being retained by the Company or utilized by the Company for a different purpose (and following, except where an Event of Default under Section 8.1.9 is continuing, three (3) Business Days’ notice and an opportunity to cure as specified above), or (y) on account of any deliberate improper or grossly negligent action (or inaction) by the Company or DSS that materially and adversely affects the value of the Patents or of the Monetization Payments (in the case of clause (x), a “ Misappropriation ” and in the case of clause (y), a “ Bad Act ” and, either a Misappropriation or a Bad Act, a “ Full Recourse Event ”), then the Investors and the Collateral Agent shall have full recourse to, and may pursue any and all assets of, the Company and DSS to recover any and all amounts owing to them hereunder.

If the Majority Investors believe that a Full Recourse Event has occurred, and they wish to invoke the additional remedies provided for in this Section 8.2.2 , they or the Collateral Agent shall provide notice to the Company that they believe that a Full Recourse Event has occurred, except that no notice shall be required if an insolvency proceeding is pending with respect to the Company or DSS. Such notice shall set forth with reasonable specificity the basis for the assertion that a Full Recourse Event has occurred.

The determination of the Investors that a Misappropriation has occurred shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. In the event that the Investors have asserted that a Bad Act has occurred, then to the extent that the Company disputes this assertion with reasonable specificity in a written notice within 30 days of such notice, it shall be the Investors’ burden to demonstrate that the value of the Patents or the Monetization Payments have been materially and adversely affected by an action or omission of the Company or DSS, but it shall be the Company’s burden to establish that such action or omission was not grossly negligent or deliberately improper.

Upon a Full Recourse Event, then the Investors’ rights shall not be limited to pursuing the Collateral or to the specific remedies set forth in Section 8.2.1 , but shall, in addition, have the right to exercise remedies against, and pursue any and all assets of, the Company or DSS, and DSS agrees and acknowledges that in such event they are full guarantors of the payment (not collectability) of the Company’s obligations hereunder.

8.2.3.      Cumulative Remedies . To the extent not prohibited by applicable law which cannot be waived, and subject to the last paragraph of Section 8.2.1 , each party’s rights hereunder and under the other Documents shall be cumulative; provided that, effective upon the Majority Investors (or the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of the Majority Investors) enforcing any remedies under this Agreement or any other Document, the Investors and the Collateral Agent shall grant, and do hereby grant, to the Company a perpetual, non-transferable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to the Patents (without the right to sub-license) in order to permit the Company to use the Patents to sell their products and to comply with arrangements entered into prior to the date of the applicable Event of Default subject, in the case of such arrangements entered into following the Initial Closing Date, to such arrangements having been entered into in compliance with this Agreement.

8.3.         Annulment of Defaults . Once an Event of Default has occurred, such Event of Default shall be deemed to exist and be continuing for all purposes of this Agreement until the Majority Investors shall have waived such Event of Default in writing, the Company shall have cured such Event of Default to the Majority Investors’ reasonable satisfaction or the Company, the Collateral Agent and the Investors or Majority Investors have entered into an amendment to this Agreement which by its express terms cures such Event of Default, at which time such Event of Default shall no longer be deemed to exist or to have continued. No such action by the parties hereto shall prevent the occurrence of, or effect a waiver with respect to, any subsequent Event of Default or impair any rights of the parties hereto upon the occurrence thereof.

8.4.         Waivers . To the extent that such waiver is not prohibited by the provisions of applicable law that cannot be waived, Company waives:

8.4.1.     all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance (except to the extent required by this Agreement), protests, notices of protest and notices of dishonor;

(g)          upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (after the expiration of any cure periods as set forth in the Investment Agreement), generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Collateral Agent’s option and Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Collateral Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Grantor might do.

SECTION 7.         REMEDIES.

7.1.          Generally .

(a)          If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (after the expiration of any cure periods as set forth in the Investment Agreement), Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all the other rights and remedies provided for herein or in the Investment Agreement, all the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may, without notice except as required under the UCC, exercise its rights under Section 8.2.1.1 through 8.2.1.5 of the Investment Agreement and sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

(b)          If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (after the expiration of any cure periods as set forth in the Investment Agreement), the Majority Investors shall have the right to direct Grantor to assign the Patents to a special purpose entity controlled solely by the Majority Investors, subject to a perpetual, non-transferable, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license back to Grantor (without the right to sub-license) that permits Grantor to use the Patents to sell their products and to comply with its existing contractual obligations under any license listed on Schedule 4.2(a) or other arrangements entered into subsequent to the Closing Date in compliance with the Investment Agreement. In such event, Grantor’s sole right and interest in such special purpose vehicle shall be to retain any Monetization Payments (after payment of expenses of the vehicle, including expenses in pursuing monetization activities related to the Patents) net of the mandatory prepayment of the Obligations pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 of the Investment Agreement, which shall be distributed by the special purpose vehicle to the Investors.

(c)          Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent that the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and Collateral Agent, as collateral agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by Collateral Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of Grantor, and Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Collateral Agent 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. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Collateral Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, Grantors shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to Collateral Agent, that Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against Grantor, and Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the rights of Collateral Agent hereunder.

(d)          Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(e)          Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

7.2.          Application of Proceeds . All proceeds received by Collateral Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by Collateral Agent against the Secured Obligations as follows:

(a)           First, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 of the Investment Agreement, but including (x) attorney costs and other expenses payable under Section 10.1 of the Investment Agreement, (y) amounts owing in respect of the preservation of Collateral or the security interest in the Collateral and (z) amounts owing in respect of enforcing the rights of the Secured Parties under the Investment Documents) payable to the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such or to the Investors;

(b)           Second, to the payment of that portion of the Secured Obligation constituting amounts owed to the Investors in accordance with Section 4.1 and Section 4.2 of the Investment Agreement; and

(c)           Last , the balance, if any, after all the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, to Grantor or as otherwise required by applicable law.

7.3.          Sales on Credit. If Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Grantors will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser thereof and received by Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser thereof. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and Grantors shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.

7.4.          Intellectual Property .

(a)          Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (after the expiration of any cure periods as set forth in the Investment Agreement):

(i)          Collateral Agent may exercise its rights under Sections 8.2.1.1 through 8.2.1.5 of the Investment Agreement;

(ii)         Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of Grantor, Collateral Agent or otherwise, in Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Patents, in which event Grantor shall, at the request of Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Collateral Agent as provided in Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Investment Agreement in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section, and, to the extent that Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Patents as provided in this Section, Grantor agrees to use all reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement or other violation of any of Grantor’s rights in the Patents by any other Person and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement or violation;

(iii)        upon written demand from Collateral Agent, Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to Collateral Agent or such Collateral Agent’s designee all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Patents and shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement;

(iv)         Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that Collateral Agent (or any other Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, the Patents; and

(v)          Collateral Agent shall have the right to notify, or require Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to Grantor in respect of the Patents, of the existence of the security interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to Collateral Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as Grantor might have done;

(1)         all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral; and

(2)         no Grantor shall adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

(b)          If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, is no longer continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to Collateral Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Patents shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of Grantor, Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to Grantor, at Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to Grantor any and all such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to Collateral Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by Collateral Agent; provided , after giving effect to such reassignment, Collateral Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of Collateral Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further , the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties.

SECTION 8.        COLLATERAL AGENT.

Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as “Collateral Agent” hereunder by Investors pursuant to the Investment Agreement. Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the other Investment Documents; provided , Collateral Agent shall, after payment in full of all Obligations under the Investment Agreement and the other Investment Documents, exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for herein in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Investors. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this section, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this section. Collateral Agent may resign, and a successor be appointed, in accordance with the Investment Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Collateral Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9.    CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF RIGHTS UNDER INVESTMENT DOCUMENTS.

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations, be binding upon Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Investment Agreement, any Investor may assign or otherwise transfer any rights held by it under the Investment Documents to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Investors herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations, the security interest granted hereby shall automatically terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors. Upon any such termination, Collateral Agent shall, at Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to Grantors or otherwise authorize the filing of such release documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, including financing statement amendments to evidence such termination, in each case, such documents to be in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent and without representation or warranty by, or recourse to, Collateral Agent. Upon any disposition of property permitted by the Investment Agreement, the Liens granted herein shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor with no further action on the part of any Person. Collateral Agent shall, at Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent and without representation or warranty by, or recourse to, Collateral Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release.

SECTION 10.           STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM.

The powers conferred on Collateral Agent 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 exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Collateral Agent 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. Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Grantor or otherwise. If Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Grantor under Section 10.1 of the Investment Agreement.

SECTION 11.          INDEMNITY

The Grantors (as “Indemnitor” ) agree to indemnify, pay and hold the Secured Parties, and the officers, directors, partners, managers, members, employees, agents, and Affiliates of the Secured Parties (collectively, the “Indemnitees” ) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, costs, expenses, obligations, losses (other than lost profit), damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for such Indemnitees) in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened by a third party (excluding claims among Indemnitees), whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto, which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against that Indemnitee by a third party, in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement (the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that the Indemnitor shall not have any obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to an Indemnified Liability to the extent that such Indemnified Liability arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee or any of its officers, directors, partners, managers, members, employees, agents and/or Affiliates. Each Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor prompt written notice of any claim that might give rise to Indemnified Liabilities setting forth a description of those elements of such claim of which such Indemnitee has knowledge; provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Indemnitor. The Indemnitor shall have the right at any time during which such claim is pending to select counsel to defend and control the defense thereof and settle any claims for which it is responsible for indemnification hereunder ( provided that the Indemnitor will not settle any such claim without (i) the appropriate Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or (ii) obtaining an unconditional release of the appropriate Indemnitee from all claims arising out of or in any way relating to the circumstances involving such claim and without any admission as to culpability or fault of such Indemnitee) so long as in any such event, the Indemnitor shall have stated in a writing delivered to the Indemnitee that, as between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor is responsible to the Indemnitee with respect to such claim to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth herein; provided that the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to control the defense of any claim in the event that in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnitee, there are one or more material defenses available to the Indemnitee which are not available to the Indemnitor; provided further , that with respect to any claim as to which the Indemnitee is controlling the defense, the Indemnitor will not be liable to any Indemnitee for any settlement of any claim pursuant to this Section 11 that is effected without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 11 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, Grantor shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.

SECTION 12.          MISCELLANEOUS.

Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 10.3 of the Investment Agreement. No failure or delay on the part of Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Investment Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Investment Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Collateral Agent and Grantors and their respective successors and assigns. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent given in accordance with the Investment Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other Investment Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Grantors and Collateral Agent and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Investment Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In an event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement shall control.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST OR THE REMEDIES HEREUNDER IN RESPECT OF ANY COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK .

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONDUCT OF THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. The Grantors acknowledge that they have been informed by the Secured Parties that the foregoing sentence constitutes a material inducement upon which the Secured Parties have relied and will rely in entering into this Agreement. Grantor or the Secured Parties may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consent of the Grantor and the Secured Parties to the waiver of their rights to trial by jury.

Each party hereto (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York state court or federal court sitting in New York, New York, and any court having jurisdiction over appeals of matters heard in such courts, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the subject matter hereof or thereof; (b) waives to the extent not prohibited by applicable law that cannot be waived, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such proceeding brought in any of the above-named courts, any claim that they are not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that their property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that such proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such proceeding is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such court; (c) consents to service of process in any such proceeding in any manner at the time permitted under the applicable laws of the State of New York and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the address specified in or pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Investment Agreement is reasonably calculated to give actual notice; and (d) waives to the extent not prohibited by applicable law that cannot be waived any right to claim or recover in any such proceeding any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

Except as otherwise provided herein, any failure of any Party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement, or condition herein may be waived by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the Party granting such waiver; provided, however, that such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement, or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be an original and both of which will constitute together the same document. Counterparts may be signed and delivered by facsimile or PDF file, each of which will be binding when received by the applicable Party.
