(collectively, "Borrower") to Bank however created, arising or evidenced,
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now existing or hereafter
arising or acquired, including swap agreements (as defined in 11 U.S.C. ss. 101,
as in effect from time to time), future advances, and all costs and expenses
incurred by Bank to obtain, preserve, perfect and enforce the security interest
granted herein and to maintain, preserve and collect the property subject to the
security interest (collectively, "Obligations"), Debtor hereby grants to Bank a
continuing security interest in and lien upon the following described property,

accessions, or substitutions thereof and all cash and non-cash proceeds and
products thereof (collectively, "Collateral"):
All accounts, chattel paper, instruments, and general intangibles.
All inventory, all documents and all accessions to such inventory.
Debtor hereby represents and agrees that:
OWNERSHIP. Debtor owns the Collateral or Debtor will purchase and acquire rights
in the Collateral within ten days of the date advances are made under the Loan
Documents. If Collateral is being acquired with the proceeds of an advance under
the Loan Documents, Debtor authorizes Bank to disburse proceeds directly to the
seller of the Collateral. The Collateral is free and clear of all liens,
security interests, and claims except those previously reported in writing to
and approved by Bank, and Debtor will keep the Collateral free and clear from
all liens, security interests and claims, other than those granted to or
approved by Bank.
NAME AND OFFICES; JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION. The name and address of Debtor
appearing at the beginning of this Agreement are Debtor's exact legal name and
the address of its chief executive office. There has been no change in the name
of Debtor, or the name under which Debtor conducts business, within the five
years preceding the date hereof except as previously reported in writing to
Bank. Debtor has not moved its chief executive office within the five years
preceding the date hereof except as previously reported in writing to Bank.
Debtor is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and has not changed
the jurisdiction of its organization within the five years preceding the date
hereof except as previously reported in writing to Bank.
TITLE/TAXES. Debtor has good and marketable title to Collateral and will warrant
and defend same against all claims. Debtor will not transfer, sell, or lease
Collateral (except in the ordinary course of business). Debtor agrees to pay
promptly all taxes and assessments upon or for the use of Collateral and on this
Security Agreement. At its option, Bank may discharge taxes, liens, security
interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on Collateral.
Debtor agrees to reimburse Bank, on demand, for any such payment made by Bank.
Any amounts so paid shall be added to the Obligations.
WAIVERS. Debtor agrees not to assert against Bank as a defense (legal or
equitable), as a set-off, as a counterclaim, or otherwise, any claims Debtor may
have against any seller or lessor that provided personal property or services
relating to any part of the Collateral or against any other party liable to Bank
for all or any part of the Obligations. Debtor waives all exemptions and
homestead rights with regard to the Collateral. Debtor waives any and all rights
to any bond or security which might be required by applicable law prior to the
exercise of any of Bank's remedies against any Collateral. All rights of Bank
and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of Debtor hereunder, shall
be absolute and unconditional, not discharged or impaired irrespective of (and
regardless of whether Debtor receives any notice of): (i) any lack of validity
or enforceability of any Loan Document; (ii) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment or performance, or in any term, of all or any of the
Obligations or the Loan Documents or any other amendment or waiver of or any
consent to any departure from any Loan Document; or (iii) any exchange,
insufficiency, unenforceability, enforcement, release, impairment or
non-perfection of any collateral, or any release of or modifications to or
insufficiency, unenforceability or enforcement of the obligations of any
guarantor or other obligor. To the extent permitted by law, Debtor hereby waives
any rights under any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws
now existing or which may hereafter exist and which, but for this provision,
might be applicable to any sale or disposition of the Collateral by Bank; and
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to,
or a discharge of any party with respect to the Obligations.
NOTIFICATIONS; LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. Debtor will notify Bank in writing at
least 30 days prior to any change in: (i) Debtor's chief place of business
and/or residence; (ii) Debtor's name or identity; (iii) Debtor's
corporate/organizational structure; or (iv) the jurisdiction in which Debtor is
organized. In addition, Debtor shall promptly notify Bank of any claims or
alleged claims of any other person or entity to the Collateral or the
institution of any litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation or
administrative proceedings against or affecting the Collateral. Debtor will keep
Collateral at the location(s) previously provided to Bank until such time as
Bank provides written advance consent to a change of location. Debtor will bear
the cost of preparing and filing any documents necessary to protect Bank's
liens.
COLLATERAL CONDITION AND LAWFUL USE. Debtor represents that the Collateral is in
good repair and condition and that Debtor shall use reasonable care to prevent
Collateral from being damaged or depreciating, normal wear and tear excepted.
Debtor shall immediately notify Bank of any material loss or damage to
Collateral. Debtor shall not permit any item of Collateral to become a fixture
to real estate or an accession to other personal property unless such property
is also Collateral hereunder. Debtor represents it is in compliance in all
respects with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Collateral and
its properties, operations, business, and finances.
RISK OF LOSS AND INSURANCE. Debtor shall bear all risk of loss with respect to
the Collateral. The injury to or loss of Collateral, either partial or total,
shall not release Debtor from payment or other performance hereof. Debtor agrees
to obtain and keep in force property insurance on the Collateral with a Lender's
Loss Payable Endorsement in favor of Bank and commercial general liability
insurance naming Bank as Additional Insured and such other insurance as Bank may
require from time to time. Such insurance is to be in form and amounts
satisfactory to Bank and issued by reputable insurance carriers satisfactory to
Bank with a Best Insurance Report Key Rating of at least "A-". All such policies
shall provide to Bank a minimum of 30 days written notice of cancellation.
Debtor shall furnish to Bank such policies, or other evidence of such policies
satisfactory to Bank. If Debtor fails to obtain or maintain in force such
insurance or fails to furnish such evidence, Bank is authorized, but not
obligated, to purchase any or all insurance or "Single Interest Insurance"
protecting such interest as Bank deems appropriate against such risks and for
such coverage and for such amounts, including either the loan amount or value of
the Collateral, all at its discretion, and at Debtor's expense. In such event,
Debtor agrees to reimburse Bank for the cost of such insurance and Bank may add
such cost to the Obligations. Debtor shall bear the risk of loss to the extent
of any deficiency in the effective insurance coverage with respect to loss or
damage to any of the Collateral. Debtor hereby assigns to Bank the proceeds of
all property insurance covering the Collateral up to the amount of the
Obligations and directs any insurer to make payments directly to Bank. Debtor
hereby appoints Bank its attorney-in-fact, which appointment shall be
irrevocable and coupled with an interest for so long as Obligations are unpaid,
to file proof of loss and/or any other forms required to collect from any
insurer any amount due from any damage or
Page 2
destruction of Collateral, to agree to and bind Debtor as to the amount of said
recovery, to designate payee(s) of such recovery, to grant releases to insurer,
to grant subrogation rights to any insurer, and to endorse any settlement check
or draft. Debtor agrees not to exercise any of the foregoing powers granted to
Bank without Bank's prior written consent.
FINANCING STATEMENTS, CERTIFICATES OF TITLE, POWER OF ATTORNEY. No financing
statement (other than any filed or approved by Bank) covering any Collateral is
on file in any public filing office. Debtor authorizes the filing of one or more
financing statements covering the Collateral in form satisfactory to Bank, and
without Debtor's signature where authorized by law, and will pay all costs and
expenses of filing or applying for the same or of filing this Security Agreement
in all public filing offices, where filing is deemed by Bank to be desirable.
Debtor hereby constitutes and appoints Bank the true and lawful attorney of
Debtor with full power of substitution to take any and all appropriate action
and to execute any and all documents, instruments or applications that may be
necessary or desirable to accomplish the purpose and carry out the terms of this
Security Agreement. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest
and shall be irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been paid in full.
Neither Bank nor anyone acting on its behalf shall be liable for acts,
omissions, errors in judgment, or mistakes in fact in such capacity as
attorney-in-fact absent gross negligence or willful misconduct. Debtor ratifies
all acts of Bank as attorney-in-fact absent gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Debtor agrees to take such other actions, at Debtor's expense, as
might be requested for the perfection, continuation and assignment, in whole or
in part, of the security interests granted herein and to assure and preserve
Bank's intended priority position. If certificates, passbooks, or other
documentation or evidence is/are issued or outstanding as to any of the
Collateral, Debtor will cause the security interests of Bank to be properly
protected, including perfection by notation thereon or delivery thereof to Bank.
LANDLORD/MORTGAGEE WAIVERS. Debtor shall cause each mortgagee of real property
owned by Debtor and each landlord of real property leased by Debtor to execute
and deliver instruments satisfactory in form and substance to Bank by which such
mortgagee or landlord subordinates its rights, if any, in the Collateral.
CONTROL. Debtor will cooperate with Bank in obtaining control with respect to
Collateral consisting of electronic chattel paper.
CHATTEL PAPER, ACCOUNTS, GENERAL INTANGIBLES. Debtor warrants that Collateral
consisting of chattel paper, accounts, or general intangibles is (i) genuine and
enforceable in accordance with its terms; (ii) not subject to any defense,
set-off, claim or counterclaim of a material nature against Debtor except as to
which Debtor has notified Bank in writing; and (iii) not subject to any other
circumstances that would impair the validity, enforceability, value, or amount
of such Collateral except as to which Debtor has notified Bank in writing.
Debtor shall not amend, modify or supplement any lease, contract or agreement
contained in Collateral or waive any provision therein except in the ordinary
course of business, without prior written consent of Bank. Debtor will not
create any tangible chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel paper
acceptable to Bank indicating that Bank has a security interest in the chattel
paper. Debtor will not create any electronic chattel paper without taking all
steps deemed necessary by Bank to confer control of the electronic chattel paper
upon Bank in accordance with the UCC.
ACCOUNT INFORMATION. From time to time, at Bank's request, Debtor shall provide
Bank with schedules describing all accounts, including customers' addresses,
created or acquired by Debtor and at Bank's request shall execute and deliver
written assignments of contracts and other documents evidencing such accounts to
Bank. Together with each schedule, Debtor shall, if requested by Bank, furnish
Bank with copies of Debtor's sales journals, invoices, customer purchase orders
or the equivalent, and original shipping or delivery receipts for all goods
sold, and Debtor warrants the genuineness thereof.
ACCOUNT DEBTORS. If a Default should occur, Bank shall have the right to notify
the account debtors obligated on any or all of the Collateral to make payment
thereof directly to Bank and Bank may take control of all proceeds of any such
Collateral, which rights Bank may exercise at any time. The cost of such
collection and enforcement, including attorneys' fees and expenses, shall be
borne solely by Debtor
Page 3
whether the same is incurred by Bank or Debtor. If a Default should occur or
upon demand of Bank, Debtor will, upon receipt of all checks, drafts, cash and
other remittances in payment on Collateral, deposit the same in a special bank
account maintained with Bank, over which Bank also has the power of withdrawal.
If a Default should occur, no discount, credit, or allowance shall be granted by
Debtor to any account debtor and no return of merchandise shall be accepted by
Debtor without Bank's consent. Bank may, after Default, settle or adjust
disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts and upon terms
that Bank considers advisable, and in such cases Bank will credit the
Obligations with the net amounts received by Bank, after deducting all of the
expenses incurred by Bank. Debtor agrees to indemnify and defend Bank and hold
it harmless with respect to any claim or proceeding arising out of any matter
related to collection of Collateral.
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS. If any Collateral covered hereby arises from obligations
due to Debtor from any governmental unit or organization, Debtor shall
immediately notify Bank in writing and execute all documents and take all
actions deemed necessary by Bank to ensure recognition by such governmental unit
or organization of the rights of Bank in the Collateral.
INVENTORY. So long as no Default has occurred, Debtor shall have the right in
the regular course of business, to process and sell Debtor's inventory. If a
Default should occur or upon demand of Bank, Debtor will, upon receipt of all
checks, drafts, cash and other remittances, in payment of Collateral sold,
deposit the same in a special bank account maintained with Bank, over which Bank
also has the power of withdrawal. Debtor agrees to notify Bank immediately in
the event that any inventory purchased by or delivered to Debtor is evidenced by
a xxxx of lading, dock warrant, dock receipt, warehouse receipt or other
document of title and to deliver such document to Bank upon request.
INSTRUMENTS, CHATTEL PAPER, DOCUMENTS. Any Collateral that is, or is evidenced
by, instruments, chattel paper or negotiable documents will be properly assigned
to and the originals of any such Collateral in tangible form deposited with and
held by Bank, unless Bank shall hereafter otherwise direct or consent in
writing. Bank may, without notice, before or after maturity of the Obligations,
exercise any or all rights of collection, conversion, or exchange and other
similar rights, privileges and options pertaining to such Collateral, but shall
have no duty to do so.
COLLATERAL DUTIES. Bank shall have no custodial or ministerial duties to perform
with respect to Collateral pledged except as set forth herein; and by way of
explanation and not by way of limitation, Bank shall incur no liability for any
of the following: (i) loss or depreciation of Collateral (unless caused by its
willful misconduct or gross negligence), (ii) failure to present any paper for
payment or protest, to protest or give notice of nonpayment, or any other notice
with respect to any paper or Collateral.
TRANSFER OF COLLATERAL. Bank may assign its rights in Collateral or any part
thereof to any assignee of the Obligations who shall thereupon become vested
with all the powers and rights herein given to Bank with respect to the property
so transferred and delivered, and Bank shall thereafter be forever relieved and
fully discharged from any liability with respect to such property so
transferred, but with respect to any property not so transferred, Bank shall
retain all rights and powers hereby given.
INSPECTION, BOOKS AND RECORDS. Debtor will at all times keep accurate and
complete records covering each item of Collateral, including the proceeds
therefrom. Bank, or any of its agents, shall have the right, at intervals to be
determined by Bank and without hindrance or delay, at Bank's expense unless
there is an event of default, to inspect, audit, and examine the Collateral and
to make copies of and extracts from the books, records, journals, orders,
receipts, correspondence and other data relating to Collateral, Debtor's
business or any other transaction between the parties hereto. Debtor will at its
expense furnish Bank copies thereof upon request. All such inspections, audits,
examinations, copies and extracts shall be at Bank's expense unless there occurs
a Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or if a Default is
detected in the course of such inspection, audit and examination. Upon and after
such Default, all such inspections, audits, examinations, copies and extracts
shall be at Debtor's
Page 4
expense. For the further security of Bank, it is agreed that Bank has and is
hereby granted a security interest in all books and records of Debtor pertaining
to the Collateral.
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Debtor will comply with all federal, state and local laws
and regulations, applicable to it, including without limitation, environmental
and labor laws and regulations, in the creation, use, operation, manufacture and
storage of the Collateral and the conduct of its business.
REGULATION U. None of the proceeds of the credit secured hereby shall be used
directly or indirectly for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin
stock in violation of any of the provisions of Regulation U of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Regulation U"), or for the purpose of
reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase
or carry margin stock or for any other purchase which might render the Loan a
"Purpose Credit" within the meaning of Regulation U.
CROSS COLLATERALIZATION LIMITATION. As to any other existing or future consumer
purpose loan made by Bank to Debtor, within the meaning of the Federal Consumer
Credit Protection Act, Bank expressly waives any security interest granted
herein in Collateral that Debtor uses as a principal dwelling and household
goods.
ATTORNEYS' FEES AND OTHER COSTS OF COLLECTION. Debtor shall pay all of Bank's
reasonable expenses incurred in enforcing this Security Agreement and in
preserving and liquidating Collateral, including but not limited to, reasonable
arbitration, paralegals', attorneys' and experts' fees and expenses, whether
incurred with or without the commencement of a suit, trial, arbitration, or
administrative proceeding, or in any appellate or bankruptcy proceeding.
DEFAULT. If any of the following occurs, a default ("Default") under this
Security Agreement shall exist: Loan Document Default. A default under any Loan
Document which is not cured within any applicable cure period. Collateral Loss
or Destruction. Any loss, theft, substantial damage, or destruction of
Collateral not fully covered by insurance, or as to which insurance proceeds are

permitted herein without prior written consent of Bank. Levy, Seizure or
Attachment. The making of any levy, seizure, or attachment on or of Collateral
which is not removed within 10 days. Unauthorized Termination. Any attempt to
terminate, revoke, rescind, modify, or violate the terms of this Security

REMEDIES ON DEFAULT (INCLUDING POWER OF SALE). If a Default occurs Bank shall
have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial
Code. Without limitation thereto, Bank shall have the following rights and
remedies: (i) to take immediate possession of Collateral, without notice or
resort to legal process, and for such purpose, to enter upon any premises on
which Collateral or any part thereof may be situated and to remove the same
therefrom, or, at its option, to render Collateral unusable or dispose of said
Collateral on Debtor's premises; (ii) to require Debtor to assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Bank at a place to be designated by Bank;
(iii) to exercise its right of set-off or bank lien as to any monies of Debtor
deposited in accounts of any nature maintained by Debtor with Bank or affiliates
of Bank, without advance notice, regardless of whether such accounts are general
or special; (iv) to dispose of Collateral, as a unit or in parcels, separately
or with any real property interests also securing the Obligations, in any county
or place to be selected by Bank, at either private or public sale (at which
public sale Bank may be the purchaser) with or without having the Collateral
physically present at said sale.
Any notice of sale, disposition or other action by Bank required by law and sent
to Debtor at Debtor's address shown above, or at such other address of Debtor as
may from time to time be shown on the records of Bank, at least 10 days prior to
such action, shall constitute reasonable notice to Debtor. Notice shall be
deemed given or sent when mailed postage prepaid to Debtor's address as provided
herein. Bank shall be entitled to apply the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral, and the payments received by Bank with respect to
any of the Collateral, to Obligations in such order and manner as Bank may
determine. Collateral that is subject to rapid declines in value and is
customarily sold in
Page 5
recognized markets may be disposed of by Bank in a recognized market for such
collateral without providing notice of sale. Debtor waives any and all
requirements that the Bank sell or dispose of all or any part of the Collateral
at any particular time, regardless of whether Debtor has requested such sale or
disposition.
REMEDIES ARE CUMULATIVE. No failure on the part of Bank to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Bank or any right,
power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law, in equity, or
in other Loan Documents.
INDEMNIFICATION. Debtor shall protect, indemnify and save harmless Bank from and
against all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes
of action, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses) (collectively, "Damages") imposed upon, incurred
by or asserted against Bank on account of (i) the Loan Documents or any failure
or alleged failure of Debtor to comply with any of the terms or representations
of this Agreement; (ii) any claim of loss or damage to the Collateral or any
injury or claim of injury to, or death of, any person or property that may be
occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the Collateral or the use,
occupancy or operation thereof, (iii) any failure or alleged failure of Debtor
to comply with any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Collateral or the
use, occupancy or operation of the Collateral (including, without limitation,
the failure to pay any taxes, fees or other charges), (iv) any Damages
whatsoever by reason of any alleged action, obligation or undertaking of Bank
relating in any way to or any matter contemplated by the Loan Documents, or (v)
any claim for brokerage fees or such other commissions relating to the
Collateral or any other Obligations; provided that such indemnity shall be
effective only to the extent of any Damages that may be sustained by Bank in
excess of any net proceeds received by it from any insurance of Debtor (other
than self-insurance) with respect to such Damages. Nothing contained herein
shall require Debtor to indemnify Bank for any Damages resulting from Bank's
gross negligence or its willful misconduct. The indemnity provided for herein
shall survive payment of the Obligations and shall extend to the officers,
directors, employees and duly authorized agents of Bank. In the event Bank
incurs any Damages arising out of or in any way relating to the transaction
contemplated by the Loan Documents (including any of the matters referred to in
this section), the amounts of such Damages shall be added to the Obligations,
shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the interest rate borne
by the Obligations from the date incurred until paid and shall be payable on
demand.
MISCELLANEOUS. (i) Amendments and Waivers. No waiver, amendment or modification
of any provision of this Security Agreement shall be valid unless in writing and
signed by Debtor and an officer of Bank. No waiver by Bank of any Default shall
operate as a waiver of any other Default or of the same Default on a future
occasion. (ii) Assignment. All rights of Bank hereunder are freely assignable,
in whole or in part, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
Bank, its successors, assigns and affiliates. Debtor shall not assign its rights
and interest hereunder without the prior written consent of Bank, and any
attempt by Debtor to assign without Bank's prior written consent is null and
void. Any assignment shall not release Debtor from the Obligations. This
Security Agreement shall be binding upon Debtor, and the heirs, personal
representatives, successors, and assigns of Debtor. (iii) Applicable Law;
Conflict Between Documents. This Security Agreement shall be governed by and
construed under the law of the jurisdiction named in the address of the Bank

requires the application of the law of a different jurisdiction. If any terms of

proposal, the terms of this Security Agreement shall control. (iv) Jurisdiction.
