(b)    Grantor authorizes Bank to file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements describing the Collateral (including describing the Collateral as “all assets,” “all personal property” or with words of similar effect) and amendments to such financing statements. Grantor will cooperate with Bank in obtaining control of Collateral (other than Grantor’s stock or member interest in its subsidiaries) or other security for the Obligations for which control may be required to perfect Bank’s Security Interest.

(c)    In the event that any repledge or reassignment, or any other action, is, in Bank’s reasonable belief, helpful or required at any time to protect, preserve or maintain the Security Interest, Grantor authorizes Bank to take any such action, and at Bank’s request, Grantor shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause the same to be done or taken at such time and in such manner as may be reasonably requested by Bank.

(v)    maintain all tangible property that constitutes Collateral in good condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and exercise reasonable and proper custody over all such property;

(vi)    procure and maintain insurance against loss, theft, destruction, or damage to the Collateral for the reasonable value thereof, and business interruption, with such insurers as are reasonably acceptable to Bank, plus other insurance thereon in the amounts and against such risks as Bank may reasonably specify, and promptly deliver an original copy of each policy to Bank as well as endeavoring to obtain from such insurer a clause requiring the insurer to provide Bank up to thirty (30) days’ (and at least ten (10) days’) prior written notice of the cancellation, expiration, termination or any material change in the coverage afforded under any such policy;

(vii)    not make any material adverse change in the Collateral nor knowingly use nor permit the same to be used for any unlawful purpose whatsoever;

(viii)    pay and discharge all lawful taxes, assessments and government charges upon Grantor or against its properties, including the Collateral, prior to the date on which penalties arise, unless, and to the extent only that, such taxes, assessments and charges are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings by Grantor; and

(ix)    if any Collateral arose out of contracts with the United States or any of its departments, agencies or instrumentalities, Grantor shall so notify Bank, and shall, after an Event of Default and upon request of Bank, execute any writings required by Bank in order that any amounts due or to become due under such contracts shall be properly assigned to Bank, with proper notice of the assignment being given under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act.

(b)    Grantor shall not, without Bank’s prior written consent:

(i)    except in the ordinary course of business or in accordance with its current policies regarding collections and write-offs that have been disclosed to Bank, and (in any instance) prior to an Event of Default, grant any extension of time for payment of any Account or compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, or release wholly or partly any person liable for the payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon; and

(ii)    except in the ordinary course of business (which is limited to selling inventory and collecting accounts receivable), sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Collateral in excess of $250,000 in value in the aggregate for any calendar year to anyone other than Bank; provided, however, that, in addition to the aforementioned limit, Grantor may sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of the assets (including the related intellectual property) associated with the STRIVA technology.

6.    Grantor Representations and Warranties. Grantor represents, warrants and covenants that:

(a)    Grantor’s chief executive office and the books and records relating to the Collateral are located at Grantor’s place of business at 4129 N. Port Washington Ave, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212.

(b)    Grantor will not move its chief executive office or the books and records specified in Section 6(a) hereof, change its name or change the choice of legal entity under which it operates or the state under whose laws it is organized, without Bank’s prior written consent.

(c)    No Collateral is, or will be, maintained at any location other than as specified in Section 6(a) hereof.

(d)    The information contained in the “Perfection Certificate” attached hereto as Exhibit A and dated contemporaneously herewith from Grantor to Bank is true and correct.

7.    Notice to Account Debtors or Obligors; Possession of Collateral. If there shall occur any Event of Default, Bank may, in its sole discretion, do any or all (or none) of the following:

(a)    Bank may (i) notify, or require Grantor to notify, in writing any account debtor or other obligor with respect to any of the Collateral to make payment to Bank or any agent or designee of Bank, at such address as may be specified by Bank, or (ii) direct Grantor to hold all payments which it receives with respect to any Collateral in trust for Bank, and Grantor shall so hold such funds without commingling them with other funds of Grantor and shall, in accordance with the direction of Bank, either (A) deliver the same to Bank, or any agent or designee of Bank, immediately upon receipt by Grantor in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements, or (B) immediately deposit them in a separate account maintained with or by Bank, or any agent or designee of Bank, in which only such payments and other proceeds of Collateral shall be deposited. When any notice to make payments directly to Bank, or any such agent or designee, shall have been given pursuant to clause (i) above, Grantor shall no longer have any right to collect the affected Collateral. If, notwithstanding the giving of any notice, any account debtor or other obligor shall make payment to Grantor, Grantor shall hold all such payments it receives in trust for Bank, without commingling the same with other funds of Grantor, and shall deliver the same to Bank, or any such agent or designee, immediately upon receipt by Grantor in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements. Bank may settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors and other obligors of Grantor for amounts and on terms which Bank considers advisable. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating Bank, or any such agent or designee, to make any demand, or to make an inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it, or to present or file any claim or notice or take any action with respect to any Accounts or the monies due or to become due thereunder or to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties. Bank shall not have any liability to Grantor for actions taken in good faith pursuant to this Section 7.

(b)    All amounts received or deposited with Bank pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations, in such order as Bank determines, in its sole discretion. Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, deliver any amounts received or deposited pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof to Grantor for use by Grantor in the ordinary course of its business, but the Security Interest in any such proceeds delivered to Grantor shall continue and shall not be affected by such delivery and Grantor shall not commingle any proceeds so delivered with any of its other funds.

(c)    Bank may at any time and from time to time, with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises in which Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by Grantor, take physical possession of any items of Collateral and maintain such possession on Grantor’s premises or move the Collateral or any part thereof to such other places as Bank shall choose without being liable to Grantor on account of any losses, damage or depreciation that may occur as a result thereof (so long as Bank shall not breach the peace) dispose of all or any part of the Collateral on any premises of Grantor, require Grantor to assemble and make available to Bank at the expense of Grantor all or any part of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Bank, or to remove all or any part of the Collateral from any premises in which any part may be located for the purposes of effecting sale or other disposition thereof.

8.    Appointment as Attorney and Agent for Grantor With Respect to Security Interest. Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Bank, or any agent or designee of Bank, as its lawful attorney and agent, with full power of substitution, to execute and deliver, on behalf of and in the name of Grantor, such financing statements, assignments, mortgages, notices, pledges and other documents and agreements, and to take such other action as Bank may deem necessary for the purpose of the creation, perfection, maintenance or continuation of the Security Interest, under any applicable law, and Bank is hereby authorized to file on behalf of and in the name of Grantor, at Grantor’s expense, such financing statements, assignments, mortgages, notices, pledges and other documents and agreements in any appropriate governmental office. The right is expressly granted to Bank in its discretion, to file one or more financing statements under the UCC or the comparable Uniform Commercial Code of any other jurisdiction, without any further authentication or authority from Grantor, naming Grantor as debtor and naming Bank as secured party, and indicating therein the types, or describing the items, of the Collateral and providing such other information as may be required or requested by the filing office.

9.    Appointment to Act for Grantor After an Event of Default. Grantor, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and notice thereof given by Bank to Grantor (but without the necessity of further action), and until the Event of Default is waived in writing:

(a)    irrevocably authorizes Bank, or any agent or designee of Bank, to perform any and all of the acts that Bank is permitted to perform under any provision of this Agreement;

(b)    constitutes and appoints Bank, or any agent or designee of Bank, as Grantor’s true and lawful attorney and agent, with full power of substitution, in the place and stead of Grantor and either in its own name or in the name of Grantor, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i)    to endorse Grantor’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, drafts or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank’s possession;

(ii)    to sign Grantor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Collateral, on drafts against customers, on schedules and assignments of Accounts, on notices of assignment, financing and continuation statements and other public records, on verifications of accounts, on notices to or from customers and on any and all documents necessary to effectuate drawings under letters of credit;

This power shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Obligations have been fully satisfied. Bank may appoint such persons, firms or corporations as, in its sole discretion, it may determine for the purpose of exercising any powers and taking any action permitted to be exercised or taken by Bank under or pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement.

10.    Acceleration of Obligations and Default. In addition to any other rights, powers or privileges granted to Bank hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its option, with or without notice, declare the whole unpaid balance of any Obligation (or all Obligations) secured by this Agreement immediately due and payable and may declare Grantor to be in default under this Agreement.

11.    Marshalling, Etc. Bank shall not be required to make any demand upon or pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies against Grantor or others with respect to the payment of Obligations, and shall not be required to marshall the Collateral or to resort to the Collateral in any particular order and all of the rights of Bank hereunder shall be cumulative. To the extent that it lawfully may, Grantor hereby agrees to waive, and does hereby absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of, and does hereby covenant not to assert against Bank, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws now existing or which may hereafter exist which, but for this provision, might be applicable to any sale made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Agreement or in respect of the Collateral. To the extent it lawfully may, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke or utilize any law which might cause delay in, or impede, the enforcement of Bank’s rights under this Agreement and hereby waives the same.

12.    Nonwaiver, Extensions, etc. No course of dealing between Grantor and Bank shall operate as a waiver of any rights of Bank under this Agreement or in respect of the Collateral or the Obligations.

Any extension of time for payment of any installment of any of the Obligations or the acceptance of only a part of such installment, or the failure of Bank to enforce the strict performance of any covenant, promise, or condition herein contained (or in any other note, obligation, or agreement) on the part of Grantor to be performed, shall not operate as a waiver of the right of Bank thereafter to require that the Obligations and the terms herein be strictly performed according to the tenor thereof and hereof. Grantor hereby waives presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, and diligence in Bank bringing suit against Grantor. Furthermore, Grantor agrees that Bank may, without thereby releasing Grantor, substitute, release, alter, or make any other disposition of any Collateral and further agree that Bank is not required to first resort for payment to any such Collateral. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Bank.

At any sale or sales of the Collateral (except at private sale) Bank may bid for and purchase the whole or any part of the property and rights so sold and, upon compliance with the terms of such sale, may hold, exploit, and dispose of such property and rights without further accountability to Grantor except for the proceeds of such sale or sales. Grantor will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such instruments, documents, registrations statements, assignments, waivers, certificates and affidavits, and supply or cause to be supplied such further information and take such further action as Bank shall reasonably require in connection with such sale.

14.    Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of all sales and collections hereunder, and any other monies (including any cash contained in the Collateral) the application of which is not otherwise herein provided for, shall be applied in such order as Bank determines, in its sole discretion.

15.    Setoff.

17.    Miscellaneous.

(a)     This Agreement shall be deemed to have been made in the State of Wisconsin and shall be governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin (without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions), except to the extent superseded by Federal law. Grantor consents to the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin and waives any objection based on inconvenience of the court (or forum non conveniens), with regard to any actions, claims, disputes or proceedings relating to this Agreement, or any transactions arising therefrom, or enforcement and/or interpretation of any of the foregoing.
