ITEM 2.03 |
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
On September 12, 2014, MusclePharm Corporation,
a Nevada Corporation (the “Company” or “we” or “our” or “us”) entered into a revolving
credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with ANB Bank (“ANB”), pursuant to which the Company and ANB executed
a Promissory Note (the “Note”) and a Commercial Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), each attached hereto
as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, pursuant to which the Company may borrow, from ANB, up to $8,000,000, subject to certain
terms and conditions as further described in the Loan Documents (as defined below).
Availability. Availability
under the Credit Facility is up to $8,000,000 (the “Loan”).
Maturity
and Security. The Note matures on September 12, 2017. Loans made pursuant to Loan Agreement are secured
by (i) a security interest in all of the Company’s inventory, (ii) all of the Company’s accounts receivable
or other payments due, (iii) all the Company’ general intangible properties, including, but not limited to, tax refunds,
intellectual property and customer lists, and (iv) all the Company’s equipment, pursuant to the Security Agreement entered
into by and between the Company and ANB (the “Security Agreement”), as attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3 (the Security
Agreement together with the Note and Loan Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the “Loan Documents”).
Interest
Rates. Beginning upon execution of the Loan Documents and until September 13, 2014, interest on any unpaid
balance shall accrue at a rate of 5.250% per annum. After such date the interest rate may change based upon the following calculation:
The interest rate, after September 13, 2014
(the “Variable Interest Rate”), shall be based upon the Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime Rate (as defined in the Loan
Documents). The Variable Interest Rate shall be Current Index (as defined in the Loan Documents) plus 2%. At no point will the
Variable Interest Rate be below 5.250%.
If in the event of default the Company,

Note and Loan Agreement contains certain fees, including closing fees, servicing fees, UCC fees, late fees, and loan fees. The
Loan Agreement also contains a termination fee if the Credit Facility is refinanced with a third party lender as follows:
| · | $240,000 if the Credit Facility is refinanced during the first 12-month
term; |
| · | $160,000 if the Credit Facility is refinanced during the second 12-month
term; and |
| · | $80,000 f if the Credit Facility is refinanced during the final 12-month
term. |

to customary carve-outs, the Loan Agreement contains customary negative covenants and restrictions for agreements of this type
on actions by the Company including, without limitation, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, loans, consolidation,
mergers, dissolution, asset dispositions outside the ordinary course of business, change in business, transactions with affiliates,
bankruptcy, insolvency, change of control and changes relating to indebtedness. In addition, the Loan Agreement requires compliance
by the Company with the following covenants: (i) during each calendar quarter within the Credit Facility term, the Company shall
cause the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to be reduced and maintained below $3,000,000 for a minimum of 14 non-consecutive
days, (ii) the Company shall not, with ANB’s prior written consent incur (A) additional debt obligations during any 12-month
period that, in the aggregate shall exceed $250,000, or (B) any individual debt obligation that exceeds $100,000, (iii) the Company
to maintain a market capitalization of $65,000,000, (iv) the Company shall not enter into, without the prior written consent of
ANB, any cash transaction, other than in the ordinary course of business, in excess of $1,000,000, which shall include dividends
or other distributions, (v) for each calendar quarter of the term of the Loan, the Company shall maintain on deposit with ANB quarterly
average collected compensating balances in excess of $1,200,000, (vi) through the term of the Loan the Company shall maintain a

cross defaults with certain other indebtedness and agreements, property value decrease, business termination, and merger or name
change without notifying ANB.
The above description of the Note, Loan Agreement and the Security
Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such documents, which are attached
hereto as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3, respectively.
Risk Factors
Our cash flows and capital resources may be insufficient
to make required payments on our indebtedness and future indebtedness.
Our indebtedness could have important consequences to you. For example, it could:
| • | make it difficult for us to satisfy our debt obligations; |
| • | make us more vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions; |
| • | limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general
corporate requirements; |
| • | expose us to interest rate fluctuations because the interest rate on the debt under the Credit Facility is variable; |
| • | require us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing the availability
of our cash flow for operations and other purposes; |
| • | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; and |
| • | place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to competitors that may have proportionately less debt and greater financial
resources. |
In
addition, our ability to make scheduled payments or refinance our obligations depends on our successful financial and operating
performance, cash flows and capital resources, which in turn depend upon prevailing economic conditions and certain financial,
business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include, among others:
| • | economic and demand factors affecting our industry; |
| • | increased operating costs; |
| • | competitive conditions; and |
| • | other operating difficulties. |
If
our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay
capital expenditures, sell material assets or operations, obtain additional capital or restructure our debt. In the event that
we are required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations, the value realized
on such assets or operations will depend on market conditions and the availability of buyers. Accordingly, any such sale may not,
among other things, be for a sufficient dollar amount. Our obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents are secured by a security
interest in all of our operating company's inventories, receivables and proceeds from those items. The foregoing encumbrances may
limit our ability to dispose of material assets or operations. We also may not be able to restructure our indebtedness on favorable
economic terms, if at all.
We
may incur additional indebtedness in the future, including pursuant to the Loan Documents. Our incurrence of additional indebtedness
would intensify the risks described above.
The Loan Documents governing our indebtedness contain various
covenants limiting the discretion of our management in operating our business.
The
Loan Documents contain, subject to certain carve-outs, various restrictive covenants that limit our management's discretion in
operating our business. In particular, these instruments limit our ability to, among other things:
| • | make investments, including capital expenditures; |
| • | sell or acquire assets outside the ordinary course of business; |
| • | engage in transactions with affiliates; and |
| • | make fundamental business changes. |
The
Loan Documents require us to (i) maintain certain financial ratios and (ii) limit our capital expenditures (to the extent
we require additional financings). If we and our subsidiaries fail to comply with the restrictions in the Loan Documents, a default
may allow the creditors under the relevant instruments to accelerate the related debt and to exercise their remedies under these
agreements, which will typically include the right to declare the principal amount of that debt, together with accrued and unpaid
interest and other related amounts, immediately due and payable, to exercise any remedies the creditors may have to foreclose on
assets that are subject to liens securing that debt and to terminate any commitments they had made to supply further funds. The
Loan Documents governing our indebtedness also contain various covenants that may limit our ability to pay dividends.

relief law, the assignment for the benefit of creditors by or on behalf of, the voluntary or involuntary termination of existence
by, or the commencement of any proceeding under any present or future federal or state insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization,

| H. | Judgment.
I fail to satisfy or appeal any judgment against me. |
| I. | Forfeiture. The Property is used in a manner or for a
purpose that threatens confiscation by a legal authority. |
| J. | Name
Change. I change my name or assume an additional name without notifying you before making such a change. |
| K. | Property
Transfer. I transfer all or a substantial part of my money or property. |
| L. | Property Value. You determine in good faith that the
value of the Property has declined or is impaired. |
| M. | Material Change. Without first notifying you, there is
a material change in my business, including ownership, management, and financial conditions. |
| N. | Insecurity.
You determine in good faith that a material adverse change has occurred in my financial condition from the conditions set forth
in my most recent financial statement before the date of this Agreement or that the prospect for payment or performance of the
Loan is impaired for any reason. |
| 8. | REMEDIES. After I default, you may at your option do
any one or more of the following. |
| A. | Acceleration.
You may make all or any part of the amount owing by the terms of the Loan immediately due. If I am a debtor in a bankruptcy petition
or in an application filed under section 5(a)(3) of the Securities Investor Protection Act, the Loan is automatically accelerated
and immediately due and payable without notice or demand upon filing of the petition or application. |
| B. | Sources.
You may use any and all remedies you have under state or federal law or in any Loan Document. |
| C. | Insurance
Benefits. You may make a claim for any and all insurance benefits or refunds that may be available on my default. |

| E. | Termination.
You may terminate my rights to obtain advances or other extensions of credit by any of the methods provided in this Agreement. |
| F. | Set-Off.
You may use the right of set-off. This means you may set-off any amount due and payable under the terms of the Loan against any
right I have to receive money from you. |
My
right to receive money from you includes any deposit or share account balance I have with you; any money owed to me on an item
presented to you or in your possession for collection or exchange; and any repurchase agreement or other non-deposit obligation.
"Any amount due and payable under the terms of the Loan" means the total amount to which you are entitled to demand
payment under the terms of the Loan at the time you set-off.
Subject
to any other written contract, if my right to receive money from you is also owned by someone who has not agreed to pay the Loan,
your right of set-off will apply to my interest in the obligation and to any other amounts I could withdraw on my sole request
or endorsement.
Your
right of set-off does not apply to an account or other obligation where my rights arise only in a representative capacity. It
also does not apply to any Individual Retirement Account or other tax-deferred retirement account.
You
will not be liable for the dishonor of any check when the dishonor occurs because you set-off against any of my accounts. I agree
to hold you harmless from any such claims arising as a result of your exercise of your right of set-off.
| G. | Waiver.
Except as otherwise required by law, by choosing any one or more of these remedies you do not give up your right to use any other
remedy. You do not waive a default if you choose not to use a remedy. By electing not to use any remedy, you do not waive your
right to later consider the event a default and to use any remedies if the default continues or occurs again. |

the occurrence of an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by law, I agree to pay all expenses of collection, enforcement
or protection of your rights and remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Expenses include, but are not limited
to, attorneys' fees, court costs and other legal expenses. These expenses are due and payable immediately. If not paid immediately,
these expenses will bear interest from the date of payment until paid in full at the highest interest rate in effect as provided
for in the terms of this Loan. All fees and expenses will be secured by the Property I have granted to you, if any. In addition,
to the extent permitted by the United States Bankruptcy Code, I agree to pay the reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by you to
protect your rights and interests in connection with any bankruptcy proceedings initiated by or against me. |
| 10. | APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement is governed by the laws
of Colorado, the United States of America, and to the extent required, by the laws of the jurisdiction where the Property is located,
except to the extent such state laws are preempted by federal law. In the event of a dispute, the exclusive forum, venue and place
of jurisdiction will be in Colorado, unless otherwise required by law. |
| 11. | JOINT AND INDIVIDUAL LIABILITY AND SUCCESSORS. My obligation
to pay the Loan is independent of the obligation of any other person who has also agreed to pay it. You may sue me alone, or anyone
else who is obligated on the Loan, or any number of us together, to collect the Loan. Extending the Loan or new obligations under
the Loan, will not affect my duty under the Loan and I will still be obligated to pay the Loan. You may assign all or part of
your rights or duties under this Agreement or the Loan Documents without my consent. If you assign this Agreement, all of my covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the Loan Documents will benefit your successors and
assigns. I may not assign this Agreement or any of my rights under it without your prior written consent. The duties of the Loan
will bind my successors and assigns. |

may not be amended or modified by oral agreement. No amendment or modification of this Agreement is effective unless made in writing
and executed by you and me. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are the complete and final expression of the understanding
between you and me. If any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable, then the unenforceable provision will be severed and
the remaining provisions will still be enforceable. |
| 13. | INTERPRETATION. Whenever used, the singular includes
the plural and the plural includes the singular. The section headings are for convenience only and are not to be used to interpret
or define the terms of this Agreement. |
| 14. | NOTICE. FINANCIAL REPORTS AND ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. Unless
otherwise required by law, any notice will be given by delivering it or mailing it by first class mail to the appropriate party's
address listed in the DATE AND PARTIES section, or to any other address designated in writing. Notice to one Borrower will be
deemed to be notice to all Borrowers. I will inform you in writing of any change in my name, address or other application information.
I will provide you any correct and complete financial statements or other information you request. I agree to sign, deliver, and
file any additional documents or certifications that you may consider necessary to perfect, continue, and preserve my obligations
under this Loan and to confirm your lien status on any Property. Time is of the essence. |

knowingly and intentionally, irrevocably and unconditionally, waive any and all right to a trial by jury in any litigation arising
out of or concerning this Agreement or any other Loan Document or related obligation. All of these parties acknowledge that this
section has either been brought to the attention of each party's legal counsel or that each party had the opportunity to do so. |

ADDENDUM
TO COMMERCIAL LOAN AGREEMENT
THIS
ADDENDUM TO COMMERCIAL LOAN AGREEMENT (this "Addendum") is entered into as of September 12, 2014, and made between ANB
BANK, as the "Lender'', and MUSCLEPHARM, INC., a Nevada corporation, as the "Borrower", and shall be attached to
and form a part of that certain Commercial Loan Agreement made of even date herewith between Lender and Borrower and governing
a revolving line of credit extended by Lender to Borrower in a maximum principal amount of $8,000,000 (the "Loan Agreement").
Initially capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum shall have the meanings given them by the Loan Agreement, whether
directly or through reference to any of the other "Loan Documents" defined therein. As part of the Loan Agreement, this
Addendum shall also constitute one of the Loan Documents. In the event of any irreconcilable conflict or inconsistency between
the provisions of this Addendum and the provisions of the Loan Agreement, the provisions of this Addendum shall be controlling,
but in the absence of any such conflict or inconsistency, the provisions of this Addendum shall be cumulative with and in addition
to all the te1ms and provisions of the Loan Agreement.
16.
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS. In addition to and cumulative with the covenants, agreements and obligations of the
Borrower under the Loan Agreement, Borrower further covenants and agrees for the benefit of Lender as follows (and any breach
or default of the following shall constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7D of the Loan Agreement):
A.
If during the three-year Loan term the Loan is paid by Borrower' s refinancing with another lender, Borrower shall
pay Lender a termination fee as follows:
$240,000
if the refinancing occurs during the first 12 months of the Loan term; $160,000 if the refinancing occurs during the second 12
months of the Loan term; and $80,000 if the refinancing occurs during the last 12 months of the Loan term.
B.
During each calendar quarter within the Loan term, Borrower shall cause the outstanding principal balance of the
Loan to be reduced and maintained below $3,000,000 for a minimum of 14 non-consecutive days.
C.
The Borrower will not incur additional debt obligations during any 12-month period that in the aggregate exceed
$250,000 without the prior specific written approval of the Lender, which may be withheld in the Lender's sole and absolute discretion.
In addition, the Borrower shall not incur any individual debt that exceeds $100,000 without the Lender's prior specific written
approval, which may be withheld in the Lender's sole and absolute discretion.
D.
At all times Borrower shall maintain a market capitalization (determined by the aggregate market value from time
to time of the Borrower's outstanding publicly traded stock) of at least $65 million.
E.
The Borrower shall not enter into any cash transactions (i.e., requiring a cash expenditure by Borrower), other
than in the ordinary course of business, which individually or in the aggregate involve cash expenditures by the Borrower in excess
of $1 million, unless such cash transactions are given the Lender's specific prior written approval, which may be withheld in
the Lender's sole and absolute discretion. Such prohibited cash transactions shall include, but not be limited to, the payment
of cash dividends or other distributions to shareholders, officers or employees of the Borrower, asset acquisitions by the Borrower,
or any repurchase of any of Borrower 's stock (none of which in any case shall be regarded as within the Borrower's ordinary course
of business).
F.
For each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) within the Loan term, Borrower shall maintain on deposit with Lender
quarterly average collected compensating balances, as calculated by Lender in accordance with its ordinary banking practices,
in excess of $1,200,000. In the event such balance is not maintained for any calendar quarter, then Borrower shall pay Lender
a fee based on the difference between the compensating balance required above and the actual average collected compensating balance
maintained during such quarter, and then by applying to such difference, for the entirety of such calendar quarter, the interest
rate under the Loan prevailing as of the end of such calendar quarter. Such fee shall be due and payable from Borrower upon demand.
G.
Borrower shall establish lock box services with the Lender for servicing the Loan within 30 days after the date
of this Addendum. Borrower shall cause all of its accounts receivable, other than those in the form of automated clearing house
(ACH) payments and wire transfers, to be collected and paid through the Lender's lock box. Lock box services will be documented
if and as required by the Lender, which documents will be executed by Borrower upon demand. Documents and agreements made by the
Borrower pursuant thereto may be treated by the Lender as part of the Loan Documents.
H.
Throughout the Loan term Borrower shall maintain a debt service coverage ratio of at least 2.0: 1, with compliance
with this requirement to be measured quarterly, as of the end of each calendar quarter, and pursuant to the Lender's ordinary
banking practices.
I.
Throughout the Loan term, Borrower shall maintain a current ratio (i.e., the ratio of Borrower's current assets
to the Borrower's current liabilities) of at least 1.5:1, and working capital (i.e., Borrower's current assets) in excess of $10
million, with compliance with both of these requirements to be measured and determined quarterly, at the end of each calendar
quarter, and pursuant to Lender's ordinary banking practices. Assets and liabilities that fall under "prepaid giveaways",
"prepaid stock compensation", and "prepaid sponsorship fees" will be excluded from and disregarded for the
requisite calculations of current assets and current liabilities.
J.
Borrower covenants that there shall not occur any breach or default of any loan or debt or related obligation that
Borrower owes or has to any other lender or obliged or under any agreement related thereto.
K.
As part of and without limitation on Borrower's obligations under Section 5C of the Loan Agreement, Borrower
shall further furnish to Lender any other information that Borrower generally provides to Borrower's stockholders or other owners
or holders of equity interests in the Borrower as and when such information is furnished to those parties.
L.
In addition to and cumulative with the delivery of financial statements pursuant to Section 5B of the Loan
Agreement, Borrower shall also furnish Lender quarterly financial statements, for the results of operations within and as of the
end of each calendar quarter (or any fractional calendar quarter) within Loan term. Such quarterly financial statements shall
constitute part of the required financial deliveries under Section 5 of the Loan Agreement and will be governed by and
subject to the provisions of that Section 5. Such quarterly financial statements will be provided to Lender within 45 days after
the end of each applicable calendar quarter. Borrower will further furnish Lender with any additional financial statements from
time to time that Lender may require.
M.
On a monthly basis, and within 10 days after the end of each calendar month (or fraction thereof) within the Loan
term, Borrower shall provide Lender with a monthly accounts receivable aging report, accounts receivable discounts report, and
a certificate of the amount of the borrowing base (as defined below), all to be made effective as of the end of the applicable
calendar month. Such reports and certificates shall be regarded as part of and within the scope of the certification under Section
5A of the Loan Agreement, but also, with respect to each borrowing base certificate, its accuracy shall be expressly certified
on its face, in form satisfactory to Lender, by an authorized officer of the Borrower (and each such certification shall be deemed
to constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower under the Loan Agreement). Borrower will further furnish such reports
and certifications concerning accounts receivable and the borrowing base as the Lender may require from time to time.
N.
Borrower shall give the Lender notice of any change in the identity of any of the executive officers of the Borrower
within ten (10) business days after the occurrence of such change.
O.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2 of the Loan Agreement or elsewhere in the Loan Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not be required to make any advance under the Loan if doing so would result in the
amount of principal outstanding under the Loan exceeding the borrowing base then applicable. Moreover, if at any time the principal
amount exceeds the then applicable borrowing base, on demand Borrower shall repay such amount of principal as is necessary for
the outstanding principal not to exceed such borrowing base. As used herein and in the other Loan Documents, "borrowing base"
shall mean, at any given time, the sum of (a) 75% of the amount of Borrower's domestic accounts receivable then outstanding and
incurred in good faith in the ordinary course of business, and (b) 80% of the amount of Borrower's international accounts receivable
then outstanding and incurred in good faith in the ordinary course of business (subject, however, to the insurance amount limitation
set forth below), excluding, however, under both clauses (a) and (b) above, (i) receivables more than 90 days old, (ii) receivables
owing from any officer, director, or employee of Borrower, or any party directly or indirectly holding any stock or ownership
or equity interest in Borrower (whether as a record or beneficial holder), or (iii) any other receivable that the Lender, in Lender's
sole and absolute discretion, deems of doubtful collectability. The international accounts receivable borrowing base under clause
(b) above will not exceed the amount of Euler Hermes insurance coverage for such receivables that Borrower has in place at the
applicable time and that is on terms satisfactory to Lender.
P. Borrower agrees that at the end of each 12-month period within
the Loan term, the covenants, limitations and restrictions governing the Loan will be subject to modification as determined by
the Lender, and upon demand Borrower shall furnish and execute, as part of the Loan Documents, such additional documentation as
Lender may require to evidence such modifications.
17.
INTEREST RATE CONFORMANCE. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Lender and Borrower at all
times to comply with applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate for the Loan. If applicable law is ever judicially
interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Loan Documents, or, contracted for, charged, taken, reserved
or received with respect to the Loan, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Loan, any prepayment by Borrower, or any other
circumstance whatsoever, results in Borrower having paid any charges in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is
the express intent of Lender and Borrower that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender be credited on the principal
balance of the Loan (or, if the Loan has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and that the provisions
of the Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder reduced, without the necessity
of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but also so as to permit the recovery of the fullest
amount otherwise called for under the Loan Documents.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower and Lender have executed this Addendum effective as of the day, month and year first above written.

|
| B. | Use,
Location, and Protection of the Property. I will keep the Property in my possession and in good repair. I will use it only for
commercial purposes. I will not change this specified use without your prior written consent. You have the right of reasonable
access to inspect the Property and I will immediately inform you of any loss or damage to the Property. I will not cause or permit
waste to the Property. |
I
will keep the Property at my address listed in the DATE AND PARTIES section unless we agree I may keep it at another location.
If the Property is to be used in other states, I will give you a list of those states. The location of the Property is given to
aid in the identification of the Property. It does not in any way limit the scope of the security interest granted to you. I will
notify you in writing and obtain your prior written consent to any change in location of any of the Property. I will not use the
Property in violation of any law. I will notify you in writing prior to any change in my address, name or, if an organization,
any change in my identity or structure.
Until
the Secured Debts are fully paid and this Agreement is terminated, I will not grant a security interest in any of the Property
without your prior written consent. I will pay all taxes and assessments levied or assessed against me or the Property and provide
timely proof of payment of these taxes and assessments upon request.
| C. | Selling,
Leasing or Encumbering the Property. I will not sell, offer to sell, lease, or otherwise transfer or encumber the Property without
your prior written permission, except for Inventory sold in the ordinary course of business at fair market value, or at a minimum
price established between you and me. If I am in default under this Agreement, I may not sell the Inventory portion of the Property
even in the ordinary course of business. Any disposition of the Property contrary to this Agreement will violate your rights.
Your permission to sell the Property may be reasonably withheld without regard to the creditworthiness of any buyer or transferee.
I will not permit the Property to be the subject of any court order affecting my rights to the Property in any action by anyone
other than you. If the Property includes chattel paper or instruments, either as original collateral or as proceeds of the Property,
I will note your security interest on the face of the chattel paper or instruments. |
| D. | Additional
Duties Specific to Accounts. I will not settle any Account for less than its full value without your written permission. Until
you tell me otherwise, I will collect all Accounts in the ordinary course of business. I will not dispose of the Accounts by assignment
without your prior written consent. I will keep the proceeds from all the Accounts and any goods which are returned to me or which
I take back. I will not commingle them with any of my other property. I will deliver the Accounts to you at your request. If you
ask me to pay you the full price on any returned items or items retaken by me, I will do so. I will make no material change in
the terms of any Account, and I will give you any statements , reports, certificates, lists of Account Debtors (showing names,
addresses and amounts owing}, invoices applicable to each Account, and other data in any way pertaining to the Accounts as you
may request. |
| 6. | INSURANCE.
I agree to keep the Property insured against the risks reasonably associated with the Property. I will maintain this insurance
in the amounts you require. This insurance will last until the Property is released from this Agreement. I may choose the insurance
company, subject to your approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld. |
I will have the insurance company
name you as loss payee on any insurance policy. I will give you and the insurance company immediate notice of any loss. You may
apply the insurance proceeds toward what is owed on the Secured Debts. You may require added security as a condition of permitting
any insurance proceeds to be used to repair or replace the Property.
If you acquire the Property in damaged
condition, my right to any insurance policies and proceeds will pass to you to the extent of the Secured Debts.
I will immediately notify you
of cancellation or termination of insurance. If I fail to keep the Property insured, you may obtain insurance to protect your interest
in the Property and I will pay for the insurance on your demand. You may demand that I pay for the insurance all at once, or you
may add the insurance premiums to the balance of the Secured Debts and charge interest on it at the rate that applies to the Secured
Debts. This insurance may include coverages not originally required of me, may be written by a company other than one I would choose,
and may be written at a higher rate than I could obtain if I purchased the insurance. I acknowledge and agree that you or one of
your affiliates may receive commissions on the purchase of this insurance.
| 7. | COLLECT
ION RIGHTS OF THE SECURED PARTY. Account Debtor means the person who is obligated on an account, chattel paper, or general intangible.
I authorize you to notify my Account Debtors of your security interest and to deal with the Account Debtors' obligations at your
discretion. You may enforce the obligations of an Account Debtor, exercising any of my rights with respect to the Account Debtors'
obligations to make payment or otherwise render performance to me, including the enforcement of any security interest that secures
such obligations. You may apply proceeds received from the Account Debtors to the Secured Debts or you may release such proceeds
to me. |
I
specifically and irrevocably authorize you to exercise any of the following powers at my expense, without limitation, until the
Secured Debts are paid in full:
| A. | demand
payment and enforce collection from any Account Debtor or Obligor by suit or otherwise. |
| B. | enforce
any security interest, lien or encumbrance given to secure the payment or performance of any Account Debtor or any obligation
constituting Property. |

in all respects as the holder and owner of the Account Debtors' obligations. |
| 8. | AUTHORITY
TO PERFORM. I authorize you to do anything you deem reasonably necessary to protect the Property, and perfect and continue your
security interest in the Property. If I fail to perform any of my duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, you
are authorized, without notice to me, to perform the duties or cause them to be performed. |
These
authorizations include, but are not limited to, permission to:
| A. | pay
and discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Property. |
| B. | pay
any rents or other charges under any lease affecting the Property. |

| J. | notify
any Account Debtor or Obligor of your interest in the Property and tell the Account Debtor or Obligor to make payments to you
or someone else you name. |
If
you perform for me, you will use reasonable care. If you exercise the care and follow the procedures that you generally apply
to the collection of obligations owed to you, you will be deemed to be using reasonable care. Reasonable care will not include:
any steps necessary to preserve rights against prior parties; the duty to send notices, perform services or take any other action
in connection with the management of the Property; or the duty to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to
others by me or other parties. Your authorization to perform for me will not create an obligation to perform and your failure
to perform will not preclude you from exercising any other rights under the law or this Agreement. All cash and non-cash proceeds
of the Property may be applied by you only upon your actual receipt of cash proceeds against such of the Secured Debts, matured
