without liability for any act or failure to act in connection with the
collection of, or the preservation of, any rights under any of the Collateral.
Section 7. Debtor Events of Default. The Debtor shall be in default under
this Security Agreement upon the occurrence of any of the following events (a
"Debtor Event of Default"):
(i) if any representation or warranty made by the Debtor in this Security

available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party
which is reasonably convenient. The Secured Party shall give the Debtor ten (10)
business days prior written notice of the Secured Party's intention to make any
public or private sale or sale at a broker's board or on a securities exchange
of the Collateral. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an
entirety or in separate parcels, as the Secured Party, in its sole discretion,
may determine. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any such sale
pursuant to any such notice. The Secured Party may, without notice or
publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be
adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the
sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be
adjourned. The Secured Party, instead of exercising the power of sale herein
conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to
foreclose the Security Interests and sell the Collateral, or any portion
thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent
jurisdiction.
Section 9. Application of Collateral and Proceeds. The proceeds of any sale

8/25/04
reasonably incurred or made by the Secured Party in connection therewith, and
any other unreimbursed expenses for which the Secured Party is to be reimbursed
pursuant to Section 10; (b) second, to the payment of the Obligations in such
order of priority as the Secured Party, in its sole discretion, shall determine;
and (c) finally, to pay to the Debtor, or its successors or assigns, or as a
court of competent jurisdiction may direct, any surplus then remaining from such
proceeds.
Section 10. Expenses; Secured Party's Lien. The Debtor will forthwith upon
demand pay to the Secured Party: (a) the amount of any taxes which the Secured
Party may have been required to pay by reason of the Security Interests
(including, without limitation, any applicable transfer taxes) or to free any of
the Collateral from any lien thereon; and (b) the amount of any and all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable
fees and disbursements of its counsel, and of any agents not regularly in its
employ, which the Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the preparation
of any amendments or modifications of this Security Agreement, (ii) the
collection, sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral; (iii) the
exercise by the Secured Party of any of the powers conferred upon it hereunder,
or (iv) any default by the Debtor hereunder.
Section 11. Termination of Security Interests; Release of Collateral. Upon
the payment and performance in full of all the Obligations, the Security
Interests shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the
Debtor. Upon any such termination of the Security Interests or release of
Collateral, the Secured Party will, at the Debtor's expense, to the extent
permitted by law, execute and deliver to the Debtor such documents as the Debtor
shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of the Security Interests
or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be. The Debtor further
covenants and agrees that it will not grant any other security interest or other
lien or rights in the Collateral (however denominated) as long as any of the
Obligations remains outstanding.

and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing

of the Joint Escrow Instructions. All such provisions are incorporated herein by
