B. To induce the Secured Party to continue its financing arrangements with

performance of all other obligations, covenants, liabilities, duties, loans and
advances of the Companies to the Secured Party under the Note and the Guaranty

Party a continuing security interest (the "Lien") in all existing and future
assets, and all accessions, additions, and accretions thereto, and products,
proceeds, replacements and substitutions thereof, including but not limited to,
the assets and properties described on Schedule 1 attached hereto (collectively,
the "Collateral").
2. Lien.
a. Continued Effectiveness of this Agreement. The terms of this
Agreement, and the obligations of the Companies arising hereunder, shall not be
affected, modified or impaired in any manner or to any extent by: (i) any
amendment or modification of or supplement to any documents evidencing any of
the rights of the Secured Party, or any instrument or document executed or
delivered pursuant to any of such documents other than this Agreement; (ii) the
validity or enforceability of any of such documents; (iii) any exercise or
non-exercise of any right, power or remedy under or in respect of any of such
instruments or documents referred to in clause (i) above or in respect of any of
the properties or assets now or hereafter constituting the Collateral, whether
or not the Secured Party shall have had notice or knowledge of any of the
foregoing and whether or not it shall have consented thereto.
b. Intercreditor Agreement. The terms of this Agreement are subject
to the terms and conditions of (i) the Subordination and Intercreditor
Agreement, by among the Companies, certain affiliates thereof, and Zohar CDO

The Companies warrant and covenant that each Company's jurisdiction
of organization is as set forth on Schedule 2 and that the Collateral and the
books and records concerning the Collateral are and shall be kept at the

Secured Party.
4. Title.
Except for the security interest hereby granted in the Collateral
and except for security interests otherwise described in the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Companies have and at all times during the Term (as defined
herein) will retain full title to the Collateral, free and clear of any lien,
security interest, encumbrance, or claim, and the Companies will, at their cost
and expense, defend any action which may affect the Secured Party's security
interest in, or the Companies' title to, the Collateral. If the Companies do not
make a timely election to undertake the good faith defense of any action as
aforesaid, or if the Companies fail to proceed with the good faith defense of
such action after making such election, then, in either such event, the Secured
Party shall have the right to defend such action at the expense of the
Companies.
5. Financing Statement.
Each Company shall simultaneously file all necessary UCC-1 financing
statements in favor of the Secured Party in order for the Secured Party to
perfect and continue its security interest in the Collateral, and each Company
shall pay (or reimburse Secured Party for) the cost of filing fees for filing
the same and shall further execute all other instruments or take all further
actions reasonably deemed necessary by the Secured Party for the perfection and
continuation of its security interest in the Collateral and shall pay (or
reimburse Secured Party for) the cost of filing fees for filing the same.

The Companies shall maintain insurance (a) on all insurable tangible
property against fire, flood, casualty and such other hazards (including,
without limitation, extended coverage, workmen's compensation, boiler and
machinery, with inflation coverage by endorsement) and (b) against public
liability, product liability and business interruption, in each case in such
amounts, with such deductibles and with such insurers as are customarily used by
companies operating in the same industry as the Companies. In the event the
Companies fail to procure or cause to be procured any such insurance or to
timely pay or cause to be paid the premium(s) on any such insurance, Secured
Party may do so for the Companies, but the Companies shall continue to be liable
for the same and any amounts so advanced shall be part of the Obligations. The
Companies hereby appoint Secured Party as the Companies' attorney-in-fact,
exercisable at Secured Party's option to endorse any check which may be payable
to the Companies in order to collect the proceeds of such insurance and any
amount or amounts collected by Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this
Section may be applied by Secured Party, in its sole discretion, to any
Obligations or to repair, reconstruct or replace the loss of or damage to
Collateral as Secured Party in its discretion may from time to time determine.
The Companies further covenants that all insurance premiums owing under its
current policies have been paid. The Companies shall notify Secured Party,
immediately, upon the Companies' receipt of a notice of termination,
cancellation, or non-renewal from its insurance company of any such policy.

The Companies hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant
that this Security Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of the Companies
and is enforceable in accordance with its terms. The execution and delivery
hereof has been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of each of the
Companies, and neither the execution nor performance of this Security Agreement
will conflict with any other agreement to which the Companies are a party or by
which they are bound.

shall only terminate upon the payment in full of all of the Obligations. Such
period is the "Term." Upon the termination of this Agreement, and the security

the Secured Party in the event of any change of any of the Companies'
jurisdiction of organization, principal places of business, or places where the
Collateral and records concerning same are kept.

the Secured Party shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies of a

by the Secured Party in attempting to collect the Obligations or enforce this
Security Agreement or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding
related to the subject matter of this Security Agreement; and then (ii) to the
entire unpaid amount of the Obligations. The Companies shall remain liable and
will pay the Secured Party on demand any deficiency remaining on the Obligations
and the balance of any expenses unpaid, with any surplus to be paid to MEDIABAY,
