adopted in the States of California, Tennessee and Delaware and elsewhere and
hereby agree to the following provisions of this Security Agreement in
anticipation of the possible application thereof, in one or more jurisdictions,
to the transactions contemplated hereby.
(a) In applying the law of any jurisdiction in which Revised
Article 9 is in effect, the Collateral is all assets of Grantor described in
Section 2, whether or not within the scope of Revised Article 9. The Collateral
shall include the following categories of assets as defined in Revised Article
9: goods (including inventory, equipment and any accessions thereto),

6
any thereof, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. If
Grantor shall at any time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any
particular jurisdiction, acquire a commercial tort claim, as defined in Revised
Article 9, Grantor shall promptly notify Secured Party in a writing signed by
Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to Secured Party in such writing
a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of
this Security Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party.
(b) Secured Party may at any time and from time to time file
financing statements, continuation statements (including "in lieu" continuation

required by Part 5 of Revised Article 9 for the sufficiency or filing office
acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or amendment,
including whether Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any
organization identification number issued to Grantor. Grantor agrees to furnish
any such information to Secured Party promptly upon request. Any such financing
statements, continuation statements or amendments may be signed by Secured Party
on behalf of Grantor and may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction whether or
not Revised Article 9 is then in effect in that jurisdiction.
(c) Grantor shall at any time and from time to time, whether
or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any particular jurisdiction, take such
steps as Secured Party may reasonably request for Secured Party (i) to obtain an
acknowledgment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party,
of any bailee having possession of any of the Collateral that the bailee holds
such Collateral for Secured Party, (ii) to obtain "control" of any investment
property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chatter paper
(as such terms are defined in Revised Article 9 with corresponding provisions in
Rev. xx.xx. 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 and 9-107 relating to what constitutes "control"
for such items of Collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party, and (iii) otherwise
to insure the continued perfection and priority of Secured Party's security
interest in any of the Collateral and of the preservation of its rights therein,
whether in anticipation of or following the effectiveness of Revised Article 9
in any jurisdiction.
(d) Nothing contained in this Section 3 shall be construed to
narrow the scope of Secured Party's security interest in any of the Collateral
or the perfection or priority thereof or to impair or otherwise limit any of the
rights, powers, privileges or remedies of Secured Party hereunder except (and
then only to the extent) mandated by Revised Article 9 to the extent then
applicable.
4. RIGHTS OF SECURED PARTY; COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS.
(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Security

Contract or License by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or
the granting to Secured Party of a lien therein or the receipt by Secured Party
of any payment relating to any Contract or License pursuant hereto, nor shall
Secured Party be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any
of the obligations of Grantor under or pursuant to any Contract or License, or
to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency
of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party
under any Contract or License, or to present or file any claim, or to take any
action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which
may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or
times.
(b) Secured Party authorizes Grantor to collect its Accounts,
provided that such collection is performed in a prudent and businesslike manner,

documents evidencing and relating to the performance of labor or service which
created such Accounts, including, without limitation, all original orders,
invoices and shipping receipts.

of Grantor, obligors in respect of Instruments of Grantor and obligors in
respect of Chattel Paper of Grantor that the Accounts and the right, title and
interest of Grantor in and under such Contracts, Instruments and Chattel Paper
have been assigned to Secured Party and that payments shall be made directly to
Secured Party. Upon the request of Secured Party, Grantor shall so notify such
Account Debtors, parties to such Contracts, obligors in respect of such
Instruments and obligors in respect of such Chattel Paper. Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Secured Party may, in its
name or in the name of others, communicate with such Account Debtors, parties to
such Contracts, obligors in respect of such Instruments and obligors in respect
of such Chattel Paper to verify with such parties, to Secured Party's
satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of any such Accounts, Contracts,
Instruments or Chattel Paper.

(c) This Security Agreement creates a legal and valid security
interest on and in all of the Collateral in which Grantor now has rights and all
filings and other actions necessary or desirable to perfect and protect such
security interest have been duly taken. Accordingly, Secured Party has a fully
perfected first priority security interest in all of the Collateral in which
Grantor now has rights subject only to Permitted Liens. This Security Agreement

interest in the Collateral in which Grantor later acquires rights, when Grantor
acquires those rights subject only to Permitted Liens and additional filings to
be made with the United States Copyright Office and/or Patent and Trademark
Office as are necessary to perfect Secured Party's security interest in
subsequent ownership rights and interests of Grantor in Copyrights, Patents,
Trademarks and Licenses.

Accounts, Commodity Accounts and motor vehicles and other mobile goods of the

permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may (i) reclaim, take
possession, recover, store, maintain, finish, repair, prepare for sale or lease,
shop, advertise for sale or lease and sell or lease (in the manner provided
herein) the Collateral, and in connection with the liquidation of the Collateral
and collection of the accounts receivable pledged as Collateral, use any
Trademark, Copyright, or process used or owned by Grantor and (ii) forthwith
collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part
thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to
purchase or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or
contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or
private sale or sales, at any exchange or broker's board or at any of Secured
Party's offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on
credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. To the
extent Grantor has the right to do so, Grantor authorizes Secured Party, on the
terms set forth in this Section 7 to enter the premises where the Collateral is
located, to take possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay,
purchase or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which, in the opinion of
Secured Party, appears to be prior or superior to its security interest. Secured
A-11

Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the
extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the
whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of
redemption, which equity of redemption Grantor hereby releases. Grantor further
agrees, at Secured Party's request, to assemble its Collateral and make it
available to the Secured Party at places which Secured Party shall reasonably
select, whether at Grantor's premises or elsewhere. Secured Party shall apply
the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale as provided in Section 7(f), below, with Grantor remaining
liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and only
after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by Secured Party of
any other amount required by any provision of law, need Secured Party account
for the surplus, if any, to Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Secured
Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral.
Grantor agrees that Secured Party need not give more than ten (10) days' notice
of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private
sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such
matters. Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any
sale or disposition of its Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to
which Secured Party is entitled from Grantor, Grantor also being liable for the
attorney costs of any attorneys employed by Secured Party to collect such
deficiency.
(b) As to any Collateral constituting certificated securities or
uncertificated securities, if, at any time when Secured Party shall determine to
exercise its right to sell the whole or any part of such Collateral hereunder,
such Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason
whatsoever, be effectively registered under Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(as so amended the "ACT"), Secured Party may, in its discretion (subject only to
applicable requirements of law), sell such Collateral or part thereof by private
sale in such manner and under such circumstances as Secured Party may deem
necessary or advisable, but subject to the other requirements of this Section
7(b), and shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to
be effected. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event
Secured Party may, in its sole discretion, (i) in accordance with applicable
securities laws, proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a
registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part
thereof could be or shall have been filed under the Act; (ii) approach and
negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale; and (iii)
restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such
purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view
to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In addition to a
private sale as provided above in this Section 7(b), if any of such Collateral
shall not be freely distributable to the public without registration under the
Act at the time of any proposed sale hereunder, then Secured Party shall not be
required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected but may,
in its sole discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), require
that any sale hereunder (including a sale at auction) be conducted subject to
such restrictions as Secured Party may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary
or appropriate in order that such sale (notwithstanding any failure so to
register) may be effected in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code and other laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and the Act and all applicable
state securities laws.
A-12
13
(c) Grantor agrees that in any sale of any of such Collateral,
whether at a foreclosure sale or otherwise, Secured Party is hereby authorized
to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it
may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of
applicable law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the
number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective
bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications and restrict such prospective
bidders and purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are
purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required
approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental authority, and
Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being
considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner,
nor shall Secured Party be liable nor accountable to Grantor for any discount
allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance
with any such limitation or restriction.
(d) Grantor also agrees to pay all fees, costs and expenses of
Secured Party, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees,
incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights and remedies
hereunder.
(e) Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any
notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in
connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
(f) The Proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization
upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be distributed by Secured Party in
the following order of priorities:
FIRST, to Secured Party in an amount sufficient to pay in full
the reasonable costs of Secured Party in connection with such sale, disposition
or other realization, including all fees, costs, expenses, liabilities and
advances incurred or made by Secured Party in connection therewith, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees;
SECOND, to Secured Party in an amount equal to the then unpaid
Secured Obligations; and
FINALLY, upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations, to
Grantor or its representatives, in accordance with the UCC or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may direct.
8. INDEMNITY. Grantor agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Secured Party and its officers, employees, and agents against (a) all
obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other
party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Security
Agreement and (b) all losses or expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid
by Secured Party as a result of or in any way arising out of, following or
consequential to transactions between Secured Party and Grantor, whether under
this Security Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation, reasonable
attorneys fees and expenses), except for losses arising from or out of Secured
Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
9. LIMITATION ON SECURED PARTY'S DUTY IN RESPECT OF COLLATERAL. Secured
Party shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and
disposition of any of the Collateral if it takes such action as Grantor requests
in writing, but failure of Secured Party to comply with any such request shall
not in itself be deemed a failure to act reasonably, and no failure of Secured
A-13
14
Party to do any act not so requested shall be deemed a failure to act
reasonably.
10. REINSTATEMENT. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or
against Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should Grantor become
insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a
receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Grantor's
property and assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations,
or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in
amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured
Obligations, whether as a "voidable preference," "fraudulent conveyance," or
otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the
event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by
such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
11.1 NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.
(a) Secured Party shall not by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its respective rights or remedies
hereunder, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy
hereunder on any one occasion preclude the further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or remedy.
(b) The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative
and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights
and remedies provided by law.
(c) None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement
may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing,
duly executed by Grantor and Secured Party.
11.2 TERMINATION OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT. Subject to
Section 10 hereof, this Security Agreement shall terminate upon the payment and
performance in full of the Secured Obligations.
11.3 SUCCESSOR AND ASSIGNS. This Security Agreement and all
obligations of Grantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and
assigns of Grantor, and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Secured
Party hereunder, inure to the benefit of Secured Party, any future holder of any
of the indebtedness and their respective successors and assigns. No sales of
participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any
agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Secured Obligations or any
portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner affect the lien granted
to Secured Party hereunder.
A-14

11.4 GOVERNING LAW. In all respects, including all matters of
construction, validity and performance, this Security Agreement and the Secured
Obligations arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and enforced
in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts
made and performed in such state, without regard to the principles thereof
regarding conflict of laws, except to the extent that the UCC provides for the
application of the law of Grantor's State.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused this Security
Agreement to be executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer on the
date first set forth above.
