any claim or right on behalf of any third party. The parties agree that during
an Enforcement Period, if any Creditor has any security interest in or lien on
any of the Collateralas security for payment of any indebtedness of the Company,
other than the PTF Obligations or the POOF Obligations, then PTF or POOF, as the

other indebtedness until all the POOF Obligations and the PTF Obligations are
finally paid in full in cash.
SECTION 5. Amendments, Modifications and Increases.

affecting the rights and obligations of the Creditors under this Agreement.

Obligations or POOF Obligations, as applicable.

request from the other as soon as reasonably practicable after such request,
giving effect to the application of the proceeds of Collateral as hereinbefore

Company or any Guarantor simultaneously with the sending of such notice to such
Company or Guarantor, and (b) notice of any acceleration of any of the PTF
Obligations or any of the POOF Obligations, promptly after such acceleration,
but the failure to give any such copy or notice shall not affect the validity of
any such notice of Event of Default or such acceleration or create a cause of
action against the party failing to give such copy or notice or create any claim
or right on behalf of any third party. The sending of any such copy of such
notice of Event of Default shall not give the recipient the obligation to cure
such Event of Default.
SECTION 8. Agency For Perfection.
PTF hereby appoints POOF as PTF's bailee for purposes of perfecting PTF's
security interests in any Collateral in the possession of POOF. POOF hereby

interestsin any Collateral in the possession of PTF.Each Creditor acknowledges
and agrees that the other Creditor is not acting as an agent,representative or
other fiduciary with respect to the Collateral and that such other Creditor's
only duty hereunder with respect to the Collateral is to apply the proceeds
thereof as provided in Section 3 hereof. Neither Creditor shall incur any
liability to the other Creditor by virtue of acting as the other's agent
hereunder, and either Creditor may relinquish possession of Collateral in its
possession without the consent of the other Creditor, and without incurring
liability to the other Creditor, unless there is an express written agreement
to the contrary in effect between the Creditors.
SECTION 9. Actions Upon Repayment of PTF Obligations or POOF Obligations.
If either the PTF Obligations or the POOF Obligations are indefeasibly paid in
full in cash as a result of an Enforcement hereunder, but not both, then the
party whose Obligations are thus fully paid shall transfer any Collateral or
proceeds therefrom held by it to the other party, unless otherwise required to
remit the proceeds according to law,and shall assign its security interest and
all of its rights under financing statements to the other party, unless
otherwise agreed to in writing by the other party.

Collateral,such notice shall be given in accordance with Section 11 hereof and
ten (10) days'notice shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable.
SECTION 11. Notices.

to be served, given or delivered hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be
deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered three (3) business days

SECTION 12. Contesting Liens or Security Interests.
Neither PTF nor POOF shall contest the validity, perfection, priority or
enforceability of any lien or security interest granted to the other by the
Company or any Guarantor,and each of PTF and POOF hereby agrees to cooperate in
the defense of any action contesting the validity, perfection, priority or
enforceability of such liens or security interest. Each of PTF and POOF shall
also use its best efforts to notify the other of any change in the location of
any of the Collateral orthe business operations of the Company or any Guarantor,
or of any change in law which would make it necessary or advisable for the other
party to file additional financing statements in another location as against the
Company or any Guarantor, but the failure to do so shall not create a cause of
action against the party failing to give such notice or create any claim or
right on behalf of any third party. The priorities and distribution provision
set forth in this Agreement with respect to any Collateral are expressly
conditioned upon the non avoidability and perfection of liens or security
interests to secure both the PTF Obligations and the POOF Obligations in such
Collateral. If a lien or security interest is not perfected or is voidable for
any reason in any Collateral with respect to the PTF Obligations or the POOF
Obligations, then the priorities and distribution provisions provided for
herein with respect to such Collateral shall not be effective to the extent of
such nonperfection or avoidability.
SECTION 13. Exercise of Remedies.
Subject only toany express provision of this Agreement that requires a Creditor
to take or refrain from taking an action, each Creditor may exercise its good
faith discretion with respectto exercising or refraining from exercising any of
its rights and remedies or taking any Enforcement Action. PTF agrees that POOF
shall not incur any liability to PTF for taking or refraining from taking or
directing any action (including any Enforcement Action) with respect to the
Collateral so long as POOF complies with the applicable provisions of this
Agreement and exercises its discretion in good faith. POOF agrees that PTF
shall not incur any liability to POOF for taking or refraining from taking or
directing any action with respect to Collateral (including any Enforcement
Action) so longas PTF complies with the applicable provisions of this Agreement
and exercises its discretion in good faith. The Creditors agree that either
Creditor may release or refrain from enforcing its security interest in any
Collateral, or permit the use or consumption of such Collateral by the Company
or any Guarantor free of such Creditor's security interest, without incurring
any liability to the other Creditor.
SECTION 14. No Additional Rights for Company Hereunder.
If either PTF or POOF shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the
terms of this Agreement, the Company and each Guarantor agrees that it shall not
use such violation as a defense to the Enforcement by any such party nor assert
such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any
such party.
SECTION 15. Independent Credit Investigations.
No Creditor nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be
responsible to the other Creditor or to any other person or entity for the
Company's or any Guarantor's solvency, creditworthiness, financial condition
or ability to repay any of the PTF Obligations or the POOF Obligations or for
the accuracy of any recitals, statements,representations or warranties of the
Company or any Guarantor, oral or written, or for the validity, sufficiency,
enforceability or perfection of the PTF Obligations, the POOF Obligations, the
PTF Loan Documents or the POOF Loan Documents, or any security interests or
liens granted by the Company or any Guarantor to any Creditor in connection
therewith. Each Creditor has entered into its respective financing agreements

representation to the other Creditor, with respect to matters identified or
referred to in this paragraph. Neither Creditor shall have any responsibility
to the other Creditor for monitoring or assuring compliance by the Company or
any Guarantor with any of the Company's or any Guarantor's covenants or

the foregoing, either Creditor may perform in accordance with the terms of the
PTF Obligations, the POOF Obligations, the PTF Loan Documents or the POOF Loan
Documents, as applicable, (subject to this Agreement) without regard to whether
the Company's or any Guarantor's performance in accordance with the terms
thereof might or would constitute or result in a breach of covenants or
representations under the other Creditor's documents with the Company or any
Guarantor, and under no circumstances shall any Creditor be liable to the other
for inducing a breach or violation of the other's documents by virtue of
performing in accordance with the terms of its own documents with the Company
or any Guarantor (subject to this Agreement).
SECTION 16. Authority in Bankruptcy Proceedings.

with the terms hereof shall be free and clear of the security interest of PTF
in such Collateral. To the extent reasonably requested by either Creditor,

preclude any other or further exercise of any other power, right, or
privilege. The waiver of any such right, power, remedy, or privilege with
respect to particular facts and circumstances shall not be deemed to be a
waiver with respect to other facts and circumstances.
