b. As security for the payment of the Obligations, the Borrower hereby grants to the Secured Party, its successors and its assigns, a security interest in the Collateral (the “Security Interest”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Party is hereby authorized to file one or more financing statements, continuation statements or other documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest, naming the Borrower as debtor and the Secured Party as secured party.

Except for the financing statements filed with respect to Permitted Liens, at the time of granting the security interest described herein, no financing statement covering the Collateral or any portion thereof will be on file in any public office, and, except for Permitted Liens, Borrower agrees not to execute or authorize the filing of any such additional financing statement in favor of any person, entity or governmental agency (whether federal, state or local) other than the Secured Party as long as any portion of the Obligations evidenced by the Note remain unpaid.

b. No Other Liens. Except for Permitted Liens, no effective security agreement, financing statement, equivalent security or lien instrument or continuation statement covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office.

c. Legal Name. Borrower’s exact legal name is as set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. Borrower shall not change its legal name or its form of organization without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Secured Party.

e. Filing. Fully executed Uniform Commercial Code financing statements containing a description of the Collateral shall have been, or shall be delivered to the Secured Party in a form such that they can be, filed of record in every governmental, municipal or other office in every jurisdiction necessary to publish notice of and protect the validity of and to establish a valid, legal and perfected security interest in favor of the Secured Party in respect of the Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement in the United States and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements.

f. Validity of Security Interest. The Security Interest constitutes a valid, legal and perfected security interest in all of the Collateral for payment and performance of the Obligations subject only to Permitted Liens.

g. Locations of Collateral; Place of Business. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that all the Collateral is located at the locations listed on Schedule A hereto and that its federal employer identification number is as set forth on said Schedule. The Borrower agrees not to establish, or permit to be established, any other location for Collateral unless all filings under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any state or otherwise which are required by this Agreement or the Note to be made with respect to the Collateral have been made and the Secured Party has a valid, legal and perfected security interest in the Collateral. Borrower confirms that its chief executive office is located at the office indicated on Schedule A hereto and that Borrower is incorporated in the State of Delaware. Borrower agrees not to change, or permit to be changed, the location of its chief executive office unless all filings under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise which are required by this Agreement or the Note to be made have been made and the Secured Party has a valid, legal and perfected security interest in the Collateral.

5. Covenants and Agreements. Borrower covenants and agrees as follows:

a. Restrictions. Borrower agrees that until the Obligations shall have been satisfied in full, Borrower shall not, without Secured Party’s prior written consent, assign, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any membership interests in Crucible, or any interest therein, except that Borrower may (i) sell Inventory (as such term is defined in Exhibit A hereto) in the ordinary course of business or sell obsolete equipment or inventory for the reasonable fair value thereof; or (ii) grant a Permitted Lien. In addition, the Borrower agrees that, until the Obligations shall have been satisfied in full, the Borrower will not form any new direct or indirect subsidiary with material assets unless the subsidiary, upon formation, executes a joinder to this Agreement in which all of the subsidiary’s assets become included as a part of the Collateral hereunder and the subsidiary enters into a guarantee of the Note. The Borrower agrees that none of its subsidiaries has any material assets other than Crucible.

b. Defense. Borrower shall at its own expense take any and all actions reasonably necessary to protect and defend the Collateral against all claims or demands and to defend the Security Interest of the Secured Party in such Collateral, and the priority thereof, against any adverse lien of any nature whatsoever (other than Permitted Liens).

If, after ten days written notice from the Secured Party, Borrower fails to perform or observe any of its covenants or agreements set forth in this Section 5 or if Borrower notifies the Secured Party that it intends to abandon all or any part of the Collateral, the Secured Party may (but need not) perform or observe such covenant or agreement or take steps to prevent such intended abandonment on behalf and in the name, place, and stead of Borrower (or, in the case of intended abandonment, in the Secured Party’s own name) and may (but need not) take any and all other actions that the Secured Party may reasonably deem necessary to cure or correct such failure or prevent such intended abandonment.

e. Costs and Expenses. Except to the extent that the effect of such payment would be to render any loan or forbearance of money usurious or otherwise illegal under any applicable law, Borrower shall pay the Secured Party on demand the amount of all moneys expended and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Secured Party in connection with or as a result of the Secured Party’s taking action under subsection 5(d), except for intended abandonment of the Collateral by Borrower, or exercising its rights under Section 7, together with interest thereon from the date expended or incurred by the Secured Party.

f. Use and Disposition of Collateral. Borrower shall not make or permit to be made any assignment, pledge or hypothecation of the Collateral other than Permitted Liens or as permitted by Section 5(a) above, or grant any security interest in the Collateral except for the Security Interest and Permitted Liens. Borrower shall not make or permit to be made any transfer of any Collateral, except in the ordinary course of business or as permitted by Section 5(a) above, and Borrower shall remain at all times in possession of the Collateral owned by it other than transfers to the Secured Party pursuant to the provisions hereof and as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Secured Party shall have the right, as the true and lawful agent of the Borrower, with power of substitution for the Borrower and in the Borrower’s name, the Secured Party’s name or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Secured Party and solely to effect the purposes of this Agreement, (i) to endorse the Borrower’s name upon any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment with respect to the Collateral that may come into its possession, (ii) to sign the name of the Borrower on any invoice relating to any of the Collateral and (iii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under this Agreement or under the Note, (A) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences or instruments of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof, and Borrower hereby waives notice of presentment, protest and non-payment of any instrument so endorsed, (B) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for, extend the time of payment of and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral and/or release the obligor thereon, (C) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral, (D) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to or pertaining to all or any of the Collateral and (E) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Secured Party to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Secured Party or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby, and no action taken by the Secured Party or omitted to be taken with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof shall give rise to any defense, counterclaim or offset in favor of Borrower or to any claim or action against the Secured Party in the absence of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party; and provided further that, the Secured Party shall at all times act reasonably and in good faith. It is understood and agreed that the appointment of the Secured Party as the agent of the Borrower for the purposes set forth above in this Section 5(f) is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 5(f) shall in no event relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof (other than obligations which are impaired as a result of actions taken by the Secured Party pursuant to this Section 5(f)) or impose any obligation on the Secured Party to proceed in any particular manner with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof, or in any way limit the exercise by the Secured Party of any other or further right which it may have on the date of this Agreement or hereafter, whether hereunder or by law or otherwise. Anytime action is taken under this Section 5(f), prompt written notice of such action shall be provided to Borrower by the Secured Party.
