EXHIBIT 10.2

SECURITY AGREEMENT

This Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of this 28^th day of February, 2017 by and between Ecosphere Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ecosphere”), and Brisben Water Solutions LLC (the “Lender” and together with Ecosphere, the “Parties”). The Parties hereby agree as follows:

Creation of Security Interest. In connection with the issuance by Ecosphere of that certain Secured Promissory Note, dated as of the date hereof, in the principal amount of up to $500,000 (the “Note”) and as consideration for the Lender’s advance of funds thereunder, Ecosphere hereby grants to the Lender a security interest in the Collateral described in Section 2 to secure the performance or payment of all of the Obligations (as defined below) of Ecosphere under Section 3. The Parties agree that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any prior agreement between the Parties, the entry into each of this Agreement and the Note do not constitute a default or violation of any covenant under any prior agreement of the Parties, and it is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement shall replace and supersede all prior security agreements made between the Parties without affecting the validity or priority of any security interests in the collateral granted in favor of the Lender to secure the obligations under any such prior security agreements.

Collateral. The collateral of this Agreement (the “Collateral”) consists of the items described on attached Exhibit A, including the Physical Collateral, the Patent Collateral, and the Securities Collateral, each as defined in Exhibit A.

Ecosphere’s Obligations.

(a)

Obligation to Pay. Ecosphere shall pay to the Lender (i) $500,000 in principal amounts (or such lesser amounts actually advanced) and additional accrued interest thereon in accordance with the terms of the Note, (ii) $3,654,000 and accrued interest thereon in accordance with the terms of the Amended, Restated, and Consolidated Convertible Note dated as of September 12, 2016, and (iii) $500,000 and accrued interest thereon in accordance with the terms of the Convertible Promissory Note dated as of October 5, 2016 (the notes referenced in clauses (ii) and (iii), the “Prior Notes”).

(b)

Additional Obligations.

(i)

Protection of Collateral. The Physical Collateral:

(A)

will not be misused or abused, but will be maintained in good and operable condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted (except for any loss, damage or destruction which is fully covered by insurance proceeds) and will be repaired, renewed and replaced by Ecosphere as its management, in the exercise of reasonable discretion, shall deem necessary;

(B)

until this Agreement is terminated and not replaced, will be insured by Ecosphere in the amount of $750,000 for the Ecos PowerCube® unit and $500,000 for the Ecos GrowCube™ unit against all expected risks to which it is exposed, including fire, theft, wind and

flood, and those which the Lender may designate, with the policies acceptable to the Lender, payable to the Lender and providing for 30 days’ minimum cancellation notice to the Lender, and with certificates evidencing such insurance delivered to the Lender as a condition to advances under the Note; and

(ii)

Protection of Security Interest.

(A)

The Collateral will not be sold, licensed, transferred, encumbered, pledged, or disposed of or be subjected to any unpaid charge, including taxes, or to any subsequent interest of a third person created or suffered by Ecosphere voluntarily or involuntarily, unless the Lender consents in advance in writing to such charge, transfer, disposition or subsequent interest, and

(B)

The Lender has filed Financing Statements and may file additional Financing Statements it deems necessary in places it deems appropriate to protect the security interest under this Agreement against the rights or interests of third persons.

(C)

Any proceeds received by Ecosphere upon the sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, encumbrance, pledge or other disposition of any of the Collateral or any part thereof shall be paid to Lender when received and applied to the Note and Prior Notes until all principal, accrued interest and attorneys’ fees outstanding under the Note and Prior Notes are paid in full. All additional proceeds, if any, from such sale or other disposition shall be retained by Ecosphere.

(iii)

Sale of FNES Interest. In addition to the Lender’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, to secure the performance or payment of the Obligations, Ecosphere agrees as follows:

(A)

Ecosphere shall not sell, assign, transfer or encumber in any manner Ecosphere’s 30.6% limited liability company ownership interest in Fidelity National Environmental Solutions, LLC (“FNES”, and such 30.6% interest, the “FNES Interest”); and

(B)

In the event Ecosphere is in default of the Note and/or Prior Notes and Lender declares the Note and/or Prior Notes to be immediately due and payable, Ecosphere shall sell the FNES Interest or any part thereof for cash at public or private sale, subject to full compliance with the provisions, including tag-along rights and rights of first refusal, of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of FNES, as in effect on the date hereof. To facilitate the sale process, Lender may solicit offers to purchase the FNES Interest. Such public or private sale shall take place no later than 90 days after the date of default by non-payment. Ecosphere shall give Lender at least 30 days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time at which any private sale is to be made. At any sale of the FNES Interest the Lender may be the purchaser of the FNES Interest or any part thereof and shall be entitled to use and apply any sums due it under the Note and/or Prior Notes as a credit on account of the purchase price of the FNES Interest or any part thereof payable at such sale. All proceeds received by Ecosphere upon sale of the FNES Interest or any part thereof shall be paid to Lender and applied to the Note and/or Prior Notes until all principal, accrued interest and attorneys’ fees outstanding under the Note and/or

Prior Notes are paid in full. All additional proceeds, if any, from the sale shall be retained by Ecosphere.

(iv)

Sale of EM Interest. In addition to the Lender’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, to secure the performance or payment of the Obligations, Ecosphere agrees as follows:

(A)

Ecosphere shall not sell, assign, transfer or encumber in any manner the 25% limited liability company ownership interest in Ecosphere Mining, LLC (“EM”) which Ecosphere owns and has pledged to the Lender under this Agreement (the “EM Interest”); and

(B)

In the event Ecosphere is in default of the Note and/or Prior Notes and Lender declares the Note and/or Prior Notes to be immediately due and payable, Ecosphere shall sell the EM Interest or any part thereof for cash at public or private sale. To facilitate the sale process, Lender may solicit offers to purchase the EM Interest. Such public or private sale shall take place no later than 90 days after the date of default by non-payment. Ecosphere shall give Lender at least 30 days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time at which any private sale is to be made. At any sale of the EM Interest, the Lender may be the purchaser of the EM Interest or any part thereof and shall be entitled to use and apply any sums due it under the Note and/or Prior Notes as a credit on account of the purchase price of the EM Interest or any part thereof payable at such sale. All proceeds received by Ecosphere upon sale of the EM Interest or any part thereof shall be paid to Lender and applied to the Note and/or Prior Notes until all principal, accrued interest and attorneys’ fees outstanding under the Note and/or Prior Notes are paid in full. All additional proceeds, if any, from the sale shall be retained by Ecosphere.

(v)

Pledge of SOGS Interest. In addition to the Lender’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, to secure the performance or payment of the Obligations, Ecosphere agrees as follows:

(A)

Ecosphere has pledged and delivered a certificate for 57,232,278 shares of Sea of Greens System, Inc., a Florida corporation (“SOGS”), presently held by Ecosphere (the “SOGS Interest”), together with a stock power endorsed in blank to the Lender, prior to the execution of this Agreement;

(B)

Ecosphere shall not sell, assign, transfer or encumber in any manner the SOGS Interest, except that Ecosphere may transfer to the Lender those shares of SOGS issuable to the Lender upon conversion of the Note, if the Lender elects to convert amounts advanced under the Note; and

(C)

In the event Ecosphere is in default of the Note and/or Prior Notes and Lender declares the Note and/or Prior Notes to be immediately due and payable, the Lender may sell the SOGS Interest or any part thereof for cash or other property at a public or private sale as provided in the Uniform Commercial Code. To facilitate the sale process, Ecosphere may solicit offers to purchase the SOGS Interest. Such public or private sale shall take place no later than 90 days after the date of default by non-payment. The Lender shall give Ecosphere at least 30 days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time at which any private sale is to be made.

At any sale of the SOGS Interest, the Lender may be the purchaser of the SOGS Interest or any part thereof and shall be entitled to use and apply any sums due it under the Note and/or Prior Notes as a credit on account of the purchase price of the SOGS Interest or any part thereof payable at such sale until all principal, accrued interest and attorneys’ fees outstanding under the Note and/or Prior Notes are paid in full. All additional proceeds, if any, from the sale shall be paid to Ecosphere.

(vi)

Allocation of Ecosphere Revenues. In addition to the Lender’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, to secure the performance or payment of the Obligations, Ecosphere and its subsidiaries agree that so long as any amounts payable under the Note and/or Prior Notes remain outstanding, Ecosphere and its subsidiaries shall allocate and pay to Lender 5% of all revenues actually received by Ecosphere and its subsidiaries from equipment sales, licensing fees, services and other sources to payment of the Obligations, as prepayments of principal and accrued interest; provided, however, that for the purposes of such calculations, management fees payable to Ecosphere from SOGS, which have been accruing at the rate of $25,000 monthly since January 1, 2015 and remain unpaid as of the date hereof (the “Management Fees”), shall not be considered revenues under this Section 3(b)(vi). Provided, further, that SOGS shall not be deemed to be a subsidiary within the meaning of the first sentence of this Section 3(b)(vi). Equipment sales from Ecosphere to SOGS shall be deemed to be revenues of Ecosphere. To the extent Ecosphere pays the Lender $200,000 under the Note or Prior Notes from its receipt of at least $450,000 as a result of a financing transaction related to SOGS engaging in a reverse merger, sums received by SOGS as a result of such reverse merger shall not be deemed to be revenues within the meaning of the first sentence of this Section 3(b)(vi).

(vii)

Allocation of Initial Public Offering Proceeds. In addition to the Lender’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, to secure the performance or payment of the Obligations, Ecosphere and its subsidiaries agree that so long as any amounts payable under the Note and/or Prior Notes remain outstanding, Ecosphere and its subsidiaries shall allocate and pay to Lender 10% of all net proceeds actually received by Ecosphere or its subsidiaries in connection with the closing of an initial public offering of any of its present subsidiaries to payment of the Obligations; provided, however, that for the purposes of such calculations, the Management Fees shall not be considered net proceeds under this Section 3(b)(vii). For avoidance of doubt, financing proceeds received in connection with a reverse merger shall not be deemed to be an initial public offering. For purposes of this Section 3(b)(vii), “reverse merger” means a merger, consolidation or share exchange between an Ecosphere subsidiary and another entity which is treated as a reverse merger for accounting purposes.

(viii)

Additional Provisions Concerning the SOGS Interest.

(A)

In the event, prior to the payment of the Note and/or Prior Notes, that SOGS shall issue any of its shares of common stock as a stock dividend or shall subdivide or combine the number of outstanding shares of common stock into a greater or lesser number of shares, then the number of shares of SOGS representing the SOGS Interest shall be increased or decreased, respectively, in portion to such subdivision or combination. Any dividend paid or distributed upon the common stock in shares of any other class of capital stock of SOGS or securities convertible into shares of common stock shall be treated as a dividend paid in common stock. In the event that SOGS shall pay a dividend consisting of the securities of any other entity or

in cash or other property, upon any acquisition of shares of SOGS representing the SOGS Interest upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Note and Prior Notes), the Lender shall receive the securities, cash, or property which the Lender would have been entitled to if the SOGS Interest were acquired immediately prior to the record date of such dividend.

(B)

In the event, prior to the payment of the Note and/or Prior Notes, that SOGS shall be recapitalized by reclassifying its outstanding common stock (other than into shares of common stock with a different par value, or by changing its outstanding shares of common stock to shares without par value), or in the event SOGS or a successor corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (any of which is defined as a “Corporation”) shall consolidate or merge with or convey all or substantially all of its, or of any successor Corporation’s, property and assets to any other Corporation or Corporations (any such other Corporation being included within the meaning of the term “successor Corporation” used in the context of any consolidation or merger of any other Corporation with, or the sale of all or substantially all of the property of any such other Corporation to, another Corporation or Corporations), or in the event of any other material change in the capital structure of SOGS or of any successor Corporation by reason of any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise, then, as a condition of any such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, a prompt, proportionate, equitable, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby in lieu of the securities of SOGS theretofore representing the SOGS Interest, the SOGS Interest shall represent the right to receive the securities or assets as may be issued or paid as a result of the foregoing; and in any such event, the rights of the Lender to any adjustment in the number of shares representing the SOGS Interest shall continue and be preserved in respect of any shares, securities or assets which the Lender becomes entitled to obtain. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(b) shall apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations and changes of securities and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

(C)

Ecosphere possesses full voting rights with respect to the shares constituting the SOGS Interest, and will possess full voting rights, if any, with respect to securities issued as a result of any of the events described in this Section 3(b)(viii) in accordance with applicable state securities laws, in each case unless and until Ecosphere disposes of such securities following an Event of Default pursuant to this Agreement, and unless and until such securities are transferred to the Lender upon conversion of the Note, if the Lender elects to convert amounts advanced under the Note.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a)

Ecosphere represents, warrants and covenants to Lender that:

(i)

Ecosphere has good and sufficient title to the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the EM Interest and the SOGS Interest, free and clear of all security interests, liens, encumbrances and claims whatsoever, other than those created in favor of the Lender.

(ii)

No financing statement, notice of lien, security agreement or any other agreement or instrument creating or giving notice of an encumbrance or charge against any of

the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the EM Interest and the SOGS Interest is in existence or on file in any public office, except those in favor of Lender.

(iii)

Ecosphere will at all times hereafter keep the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the EM Interest and the SOGS Interest free of all security interests, liens and claims whatsoever, except the security interests, liens and claims in favor of Lender.

(iv)

Ecosphere (i) will, from time to time, on request of Lender, execute such financing statements, statements of assignment, notices and other documents and pay the costs of filing or recording the same in all public offices deemed necessary by Lender and do such other acts as Lender may request to establish and maintain a valid security interest in the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the EM Interest and the SOGS Interest and (ii) authorizes Lender at Ecosphere’s expense to file any financing statements, or any notices or assignments with the Patent and Trademark Office, relating to the Collateral (without Ecosphere’s signature thereon) which Lender deems appropriate.

(v)

Ecosphere irrevocably appoints Lender as Ecosphere’s attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, in its own name or in Ecosphere’s name, place and stead:

(A)

To file any financing statements, and any documents in the Patent and Trademark Office that Lender deems appropriate in connection with the perfection, protection, priority or enforcement of Lender’s security interest in the Collateral;

(B)

To take any actions required of Ecosphere under this Agreement that Ecosphere fails or is unable to take in a timely manner; and

(C)

While Ecosphere is in default under this Agreement, to take any actions that Lender deems appropriate (i) to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and its security interest in the Collateral or to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including any actions described in Section 6 and (ii) in connection with the disposition of any Collateral (1) to assign or transfer title to such Collateral to itself or to any third party purchaser in connection with the Lender’s exercise of its rights under the Uniform Commercial Code, and (2) to file with the Patent and Trademark Office or other governmental office or authority any documents necessary or advisable to implement, effectuate or reflect the disposition.

(D)

Lender will not disturb the rights of any third-party licensee of Patent Collateral under a license granted by Ecosphere in the ordinary course of business so long as the licensee is not in breach of its obligations to Ecosphere under the license.

(vi)

Ecosphere will account fully and faithfully for and promptly pay or turn over to Lender proceeds in whatever form received in disposition in any manner of any of the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the EM Interest and the SOGS Interest as provided herein.

(vii)

All information now or hereafter furnished by Ecosphere to Lender relating in any way to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the

EM Interest and the SOGS Interest is and will be true and correct in all material respects as of the date furnished.

(viii)

The FNES Interest and the EM Interest are not represented by a certificate and are “uncertificated securities” under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in Delaware. Ecosphere will, if the FNES Interest or the EM Interest are represented by a certificate, promptly deliver possession of such certificate to Lender. The SOGS Interest is represented by a certificate which has been delivered to the Lender prior to execution of this Agreement.

(ix)

The Lender is acquiring the Note, and, if it acts as the purchaser of the Securities Collateral in the Event of Default, will acquire the Securities Collateral, for its own account, for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, the distribution thereof. The Lender has no present intention of reselling or distributing the Securities Collateral after any period of time. The acquisition of the securities for investment is consistent with Lender’s financial needs.

(x)

THE LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL SECURITIES PLEDGED AS COLLATERAL FOR THE NOTE AND PRIOR NOTES HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE FEDERAL OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR HYPOTHECATED IN ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH LAWS AS MAY BE APPLICABLE OR, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY, THAT AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS EXIST.

Default. Any material misrepresentation, misstatement or omission in connection with, or non-compliance with or non-performance of the Note, the Prior Notes, this Agreement, the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Note or Prior Notes, shall constitute default under this Agreement. In addition, Ecosphere shall be in default if (i) bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings are instituted by or against Ecosphere, which proceedings are not dismissed within 30 days; (ii) if Ecosphere makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (iii) if Ecosphere shall default in performance of any agreement with the Lender.

The Lender’s Rights and Remedies.

(a)

The Lender may assign this Agreement, with notice to Ecosphere, and, if the Lender does assign this Agreement, the assignee shall be entitled, upon notifying Ecosphere, to performance of all of Ecosphere’s obligations under this Agreement.

(b)

Upon Ecosphere’s default, the Lender may exercise its rights of enforcement under the Uniform Commercial Code in force in Delaware and any notice of lien filed with the United States Patent Office and, in conjunction with, addition to or substitution for those rights, at the Lender’s discretion, it may:

(i)

To the extent permitted by law, enter upon Ecosphere’s premises to take possession of, assemble and collect the Collateral or to render it unuseable.

(ii)

Require Ecosphere to assemble the Collateral and make it available at a place the Lender designates which is mutually convenient, to allow the Lender to take possession or sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral.

(iii)

Waive any default or remedy any default in any reasonable manner without waiving the default remedied and without waiving any other prior or subsequent default.

(iv)

Ecosphere understands that to the extent permitted by law, if Ecosphere fails to meet any of Ecosphere’s obligations under this Agreement, the Lender has a right to take possession of the Collateral by all lawful means and to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral.

(c)

Upon default of the Note and/or Prior Notes, the Lender shall have rights to a sale of the EM Interest, the FNES Interest and the SOGS Interest as provided in this Agreement, including a right to solicit purchasers, in accordance with Sections 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv) and 3(b)(v).

(d)

With regards to only non-monetary defaults, the Lender will give notice to Ecosphere that Ecosphere is in default hereunder, and Ecosphere shall have 30 days from the date of such notice to cure the non-monetary defaults.

(e)

The Lender’s remedies for monetary defaults are limited to recovering its outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Note and Prior Notes, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the sale of the Collateral.

Other Lienholders. Any person or entity taking a junior encumbrance, or other lien upon the Collateral or any part thereof or any interest therein, shall take said lien subject to the rights of the Lender to amend, modify, extend, renew, enlarge or release the Note and/or Prior Notes, this Agreement or any other document or instrument evidencing, securing or guaranteeing the Note and/or Prior Notes, including, but not limited to, any amendments, modifications, extensions or renewals that increase the amount outstanding under the Note and/or Prior Notes, in each and every case without obtaining the consent of the holder of such junior lien and without the lien of this Agreement losing its priority over the rights of any such junior lien. Accordingly, any person or entity taking a junior encumbrance, or other lien upon the Collateral or any part therein or any interest therein, shall take said lien subject to the provisions of the Note, the Prior Notes and this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the above provision. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to authorize any such junior encumbrance or other liens on the Collateral, the FNES Interest, the EM Interest and the SOGS Interest.

Severability. In the event any parts of this Agreement are found to be void, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless be binding with the same effect as though the void parts were deleted.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The execution of this Agreement may be by actual or facsimile signature.

10.

Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their legal representatives, successors and assigns.

11.
