security interests in any of the Copyright Collateral or any other Collateral.
Each Debtor agrees that such rights and remedies include the right of Secured
Party as a secured party to sell or otherwise dispose of its Collateral after
default, pursuant to UCC Section 9504. Each Debtor agrees that Secured Party
shall at all times have such royalty free licenses, to the extent permitted by
law, for any Copyright, Copyright Rights, Proprietary Right and any other
Copyright Collateral that is reasonably necessary to permit the exercise of any
of Secured Party's rights or remedies upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default with respect to (among other things) any
asset of such Debtor in which Secured Party has a security interest for the
benefit of the Lender Group, including Secured Party's rights to sell or license
general intangibles, inventory, tooling or packaging which is acquired by such
Debtor (or its successors, permitted assignees, or trustee in bankruptcy). In
addition to and without limiting any of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the
right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit, or to take such other
action as Secured Party deems necessary or advisable, in the name of any Debtor
or Secured Party, to enforce or protect any Copyright, Registration, Copyright
Right or Proprietary Right, and any license thereunder, in which event such
Debtor shall, at the request of Secured Party, do any and all lawful acts and
execute any and all documents required by Secured Party in aid of such
enforcement. To the extent that Secured Party shall elect not to bring suit to
enforce any Copyright, Registration, Copyright Rights, Proprietary Right, or any
license thereunder, the applicable Debtor, in the exercise of its reasonable
business judgment, agrees to use all reasonable measures and its diligent
efforts, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the
infringement, misappropriation or violation thereof by others and for that
purpose agrees diligently to maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any
Person necessary to prevent such infringement, misappropriation or violation.

obligations hereunder, Secured Party may do so in such Debtor's name or in
Secured Party's name, but at such Debtor's expense, and each Debtor hereby
agrees to reimburse Secured Party in full upon demand for all reasonable
expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Secured Party or any
Lender in protecting, defending and maintaining any of the Copyright Collateral
or any right, title or interest of such Debtor or Secured Party therein. Each
Debtor hereby appoints Secured Party, and authorizes, directs and empowers
Secured Party to make, constitute and appoint any officer or agent of Secured
Party as Secured Party may select, in its exclusive discretion, as the true and
lawful attorney-in-fact of such Debtor, with the
9

name of such Debtor any financing statement or other instrument and any

Copyright Collateral, including any rights of such Debtor arising under
Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) to grant or issue any
exclusive or nonexclusive license under any of the Copyright Collateral to
anyone else, or as may be necessary for Secured Party to assign, pledge,
convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of any of the Copyright
Collateral or any other collateral to anyone else. Each Debtor hereby
ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is

which case such choice of New York law shall not be deemed to deprive Secured
Party of such rights and remedies as may be available under federal law.
12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement and the Loan
Agreement, together with the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and thereto, which
are incorporated herein by this reference, contains the entire agreement of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior drafts

deemed to be incorporated herein by this reference.
13. SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions contained in this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any
jurisdiction or with respect to any party, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in such jurisdiction or with respect to such party shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not invalidate or render
10
illegal or unenforceable any such provision in any other jurisdiction or with
respect to any other party, or any other provisions of this Agreement.
14. COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same
agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed
counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of
this Agreement

remedies of Secured Party with respect to the security interest in the Copyright
Collateral granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Loan Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and all such rights and remedies are cumulative.
16. NO INCONSISTENT REQUIREMENTS. Each Debtor acknowledges that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms and
provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and each

respective terms.

Obligations and the full and final termination of any commitment to extend any
financial accommodations under the Loan Agreement, this Agreement shall
terminate, and Secured Party shall execute and deliver such documents and

Debtors expense, as shall be necessary to evidence termination of the security
interests granted by each Debtor to Secured Party, for the benefit of the Lender
Group, hereunder.
18. AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY LOAN AGREEMENT. By its execution and
delivery of this Agreement or any joinder hereto, any Debtor that is not a party
to the Loan Agreement or any joinder thereto nevertheless shall be deemed to
have agreed to be bound by each provision in the Loan Agreement relating to the
Debtors or their assets with the same force and effect as though such Debtor
were party to the Loan Agreement or any joinder thereto, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.
19. ADDITIONAL DEBTORS. The initial Debtors hereunder shall be such
of the Debtors as are signatories hereto as of the date hereof. From time to
time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Debtors, as required by the Loan
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, may become parties hereto, as additional
Debtors (each, an "Additional Debtor"), by executing and delivering a
counterpart of this Agreement. Upon delivery of any such counterpart to Secured
Party, notice of which is hereby waived by any other Debtor,
11
each such Additional Debtor shall be a Debtor and shall be as fully a party
hereto as if such Additional Debtor were an original signatory hereof. Each
Debtor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be
affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Debtor, nor by
any election of Secured Party not to cause any Person to become an Additional
Debtor hereunder. This Agreement shall be fully effective as to any Debtor
that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person
becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Debtor hereunder.
