3. Agent's and Lenders' Rights; Limitations on Agent's and Lenders'
Obligations.
(a) It is expressly agreed by each Grantor that, anything herein or in any
other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain
liable under each of its respective Contractual Obligations, including all
Licenses, to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations
2
to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Neither Agent nor any Lender
shall have any obligation or liability under any Contractual Obligation by
reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document
or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by Agent or any Lender
of any payment relating to any Contractual Obligation pursuant hereto. Neither
Agent nor any Lender shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform or
fulfill any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any
Contractual Obligation, 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 Contractual Obligation, or to present or
file any claims, 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) At any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
or at any time that Agent has determined that set-offs or contra accounts pose a
material risk to Agent's ability to realize upon any Collateral, without prior
notice to any Grantor, Agent may notify each Grantor's Account Debtors and all
other Persons obligated on any of the Collateral that Agent has a security
interest therein, and that payments shall be made directly to Agent, for itself
and the benefit of Lenders. Upon the request of Agent, each Grantor shall so
notify its Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on the Collateral. Once
any such notice has been given to any Account Debtor or other Person obligated
on the Collateral, none of the Grantors shall give any contrary instructions to
such Account Debtor or other Person without Agent's prior written consent.
(c) Agent may at any time in Agent's own name, in the name of a nominee of
Agent or in the name of any Grantor communicate (by mail, telephone, facsimile
or otherwise) with Account Debtors, parties to Contractual Obligations and
obligors in respect of Instruments to verify with such Persons, to Agent's
satisfaction, the existence, amount, terms of, and any other matter relating to,
Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper and/or payment intangibles. If a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor, at its own
expense, shall cause the independent certified public accountants then engaged
by such Grantor to prepare and deliver to Agent and each Lender at any time and
from time to time promptly upon Agent's request the following reports with
respect to such Grantor: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of
all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such
Accounts as Agent may request. Each Grantor, at its own expense, shall deliver
to Agent the results of each physical verification, if any, which such Grantor
may in its discretion have made, or caused any other Person to have made on its
behalf, of all or any portion of its Inventory.
4. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor, jointly and severally,
represents and warrants that:
(a) Each Grantor has rights in and the power to transfer each item of the
Collateral upon which it purports to xxxxx x Xxxx hereunder, free and clear of
any and all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances.
(b) No effective security agreement, financing statement, equivalent
security or Lien instrument or continuation statement covering all or any part
of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as
may have been filed (i) by any Grantor in favor of Agent pursuant to this
Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (ii) in connection with any
other Permitted Encumbrances.
(c) This Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing
Lien on and, upon the filing of the appropriate financing statements in the
filing offices listed on Schedule I hereto, a perfected Lien in favor of Agent,
for itself and the benefit of Lenders, on the Collateral with respect to which a
Lien may be perfected by filing pursuant to the Code. Such Lien is prior to all
other Liens,
3
except Permitted Encumbrances that would be prior to Liens in favor of Agent for
the benefit of Agent and Lenders as a matter of law, and is enforceable as such
as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from any of the Grantors
(other than purchasers and lessees of Inventory in the ordinary course of
business and non-exclusive licensees of General Intangibles in the ordinary
course of business). Except as set forth in Sections 4(d) and 4(h) hereof, all
action by each of the Grantors necessary or desirable to protect and perfect
such Lien on each item of the Collateral has been duly taken. None of the
Grantors sells any Inventory to any Person on approval or on any other basis
which entitles the customer to return, or which may obligate any Grantor to
repurchase, such Inventory. No authorization, approval or consent is required to
be obtained from any Governmental Authority or other Person for the grant of the
security interest herein, the perfection thereof or the exercise by Agent of its
rights and remedies hereunder.
(d) Schedule II hereto lists all Stock (other than stock of Subsidiaries,
but including, in any event Stock constituting general partnership interests in
each Subsidiary that is a limited partnership), Instruments, Documents, Letter
of Credit Rights and Chattel Paper in which each Grantor has an interest as of
the date hereof. All actions by each Grantor necessary or desirable to protect
and perfect the Lien of Agent on each item set forth on Schedule II (including
the delivery of all originals thereof to Agent and the legending of all Chattel
Paper as required by Section 5(b) hereof) have been duly taken. The Lien of
Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, on the Collateral listed on
Schedule II hereto is prior to all other Liens, except Permitted Encumbrances
that would be prior to the Liens in favor of Agent as a matter of law, and is
enforceable as such against any and all creditors of and purchasers from each
Grantor.

its incorporation or other organization, all prior names of each Grantor, as
they appeared from time to time in official filings in the state of its

Person from whom each Grantor, as the case may be, has acquired assets during
the past five (5) years, other than assets acquired in the ordinary course of
such Grantor's business. Each Grantor has only one state of incorporation or
organization.

services to Account Debtors in the ordinary course of each Grantor's business
and are not evidenced by a judgment, Instrument or Chattel Paper; (ii) there are
no setoffs, claims or disputes existing or asserted with respect thereto and
none of the Grantors has made any agreement with any of its Account Debtors for
any extension of time for the payment thereof, any compromise or settlement for
less than the full amount thereof, any release of any of its Account Debtors
from liability therefor, or any deduction therefrom except a discount or
allowance allowed by any Grantor in the ordinary course of its business for
prompt payment and disclosed to Agent; (iii) to each Grantor's knowledge, there
are no facts, events or occurrences which in any way impair the validity or

payable thereunder as shown on such Grantor's books and records and any
invoices, statements and Borrowing Base Certificate or other collateral report
delivered to Agent and Lenders with respect thereto; (iv) none of the Grantors

Inventory or the payment of any monies to any third party upon such sale or
other disposition, and (vi) the completion of manufacture, sale or other
disposition of such Inventory by Agent following an Event of Default shall not
require the consent of any Person and shall not constitute a breach or default

6. Bank Accounts; Collection of Accounts and Payments.
Each Grantor shall enter into a bank agency and control agreement ("Bank
Agency and Control Agreement"), in a form specified by Agent, with each
financial institution with which such Grantor maintains from time to time any
Deposit Account. Each Bank Agency and Control Agreement shall provide, among
other things, that (a) all items of payment deposited in each Deposit Account
subject thereto shall be held by the applicable financial institution as Agent
or bailee-in-possession for Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, (b) the
financial institution executing such agreement has no rights of offset or
recoupment of any other claim against any Deposit Account subject thereto, as
the case may be, other than for payment of its services and other charges
directly related to the administration of each such Deposit Account and for
returned checks or other items of payment, and (c) to the extent provided below,
the financial institution will transfer all amounts held or deposited from time
to time in any such Deposit Account as Agent may so direct. Each Grantor hereby
grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a continuing lien upon,
and security interest in, all such accounts and all funds at any time paid,
deposited, credited or held in such accounts (whether for collection,
provisionally or otherwise) or otherwise in the possession of such financial
institutions, and each such financial institution shall act as Agent's agent in
connection therewith. None of the Grantors shall establish any Deposit Account
with any financial institution unless prior thereto Agent and the applicable
Grantor shall have entered into a Bank Agency and Control Agreement satisfactory
to Agent with such financial institution.
To the extent requested by the Agent, each Grantor shall establish lockbox
or blocked accounts (collectively, "Blocked Accounts") in such Grantor's name
with such banks as are acceptable to Agent
9
("Collecting Banks"), subject to a Bank Agency and Control Agreement pursuant to
which all Account Debtors shall directly remit all payments on Accounts and in
which such Grantor will immediately deposit all cash payments for Inventory or
other cash payments constituting proceeds of Collateral in the identical form in
which such payment was made, whether by cash or check. In addition, Agent, for
the benefit of Agent and Lenders, may establish one or more depository accounts
at each Collecting Bank or at a centrally located bank in the name of Agent or
any one or more Grantors as customer (collectively, the "Concentration
Accounts"). From and after receipt by any Collecting Bank of written notice from
Agent to such Collecting Bank that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or that any event or condition has occurred or exits and could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, all amounts held
or deposited from time to time in the Blocked Accounts held by such Collecting
Bank shall be transferred on a daily basis to Agent (as Agent may direct) or any
of the Concentration Accounts. Subject to the foregoing, each Grantor hereby
agrees that all payments received by Agent or any Lender whether by cash, check,
wire transfer or any other instrument, made to such Blocked Accounts or
Concentration Accounts or otherwise received by Agent or any Lender and whether
on the Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral or otherwise will be the sole
and exclusive property of Lenders. Each Grantor, and any of its Affiliates,
employees, agents and other Persons acting for or in concert with any Grantor
shall, acting as trustee for Agent and Lenders, receive, as the sole and
exclusive property of Lenders, any moneys, checks, notes, drafts or other
payments relating to and/or constituting proceeds of Accounts or other
Collateral which come into the possession or under the control of such Grantor
or any Affiliates, employees, agent, or other Persons acting for or in concert
with any Grantor, and immediately upon receipt thereof, such Grantor or such
Persons shall deposit the same or cause the same to be deposited in kind, in a
Blocked Account or other account subject to a Bank Agency and Control Agreement.
If at any time a Collecting Bank is obligated to transfer to Agent or any
Concentration Account all amounts held or deposited in the Blocked Accounts held
by such Collecting Bank, no Grantor shall and no Grantor shall permit any
Subsidiary to, accumulate or maintain cash in any disbursement or payroll
account, as of any date, in an amount in excess of checks outstanding against
such account as of such date and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance
requirements.
Each Grantor shall close each of its accounts (and promptly establish
replacement accounts with a financial institution which has executed, or is
willing to execute, a Bank Agency and Control Agreement) maintained with any
financial institution which is the subject of a notice from Agent that the
creditworthiness of such financial institution or any of its affiliates is no
longer acceptable to Agent, or that the operating performance, funds transfer or
availability procedures or performance with respect to any Bank Agency and
Control Agreement of such financial institution is no longer acceptable in
Agent's reasonable judgment.
7. Agent's Appointment as Attorney-In-Fact.
On the Closing Date, each Grantor shall execute and deliver to Agent a
power of attorney (the "Power of Attorney") substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B. The power of attorney granted pursuant to the Power of
Attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the
Termination Date. The powers conferred on Agent, for the benefit of Agent and
Lenders, under the Power of Attorney are solely to protect Agent's interests
(for the benefit of Agent and Lenders) in the Collateral and shall not impose
any duty upon Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers. Agent agrees that
(a) except for the powers granted in clause (h) of the Power of Attorney, it
shall not exercise any power or authority granted under the Power of Attorney
unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (b) Agent shall
account for any moneys received by Agent in respect of any foreclosure on or
disposition of Collateral pursuant to the Power of Attorney provided that none
of Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty as to any Collateral, and Agent and
Lenders shall be accountable only for
10
amounts they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers. NONE
OF AGENT, LENDERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO ANY GRANTOR FOR ANY
ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT IN
RESPECT OF DAMAGES ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL
MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, NOR FOR
ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
8. Remedies; Rights Upon Default.
(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this
Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any
other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the
Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Agent may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees
that in any such event Agent, without demand of performance or other demand,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time
and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person
(all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly
waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code and other applicable law),
may forthwith (personally or through its agents or attorneys) enter upon the
premises where any Collateral is located, without any obligation to pay rent,
through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final
judgment or giving any Grantor or any other Person notice and opportunity for a
hearing on Agent's claim or action and may take possession of, collect, receive,
assemble, process, appropriate, remove and realize upon the Collateral, or any
part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or
options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or
contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or
private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable,
for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit
risk, and may exercise, to the exclusion of the Grantor thereof (and while any
such Event of Default such Grantor shall not exercise) all voting, consent and
other rights in respect of any Stock in which a security interest is granted
herein and to demand and receive to the exclusion of the Grantor thereof all
distributions in respect of such Stock (and while any such Event of Default is
continuing such Grantor shall not be entitled to receive or retain and shall
turn over to Agent any such distributions). To facilitate the foregoing, Agent
shall have the right to take possession of each Grantor's original books and
records, to obtain access to each Grantor's data processing equipment, computer
hardware and Software and to use all of the foregoing and the information
contained therein in any manner which Agent deems appropriate. Agent or any
Lender 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 for
the benefit of Agent and Lenders, the whole or any part of said Collateral so
sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption each
Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to
time with or without notice. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on
each Grantor's premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use each
Grantor's premises without charge for such time or times as Agent deems
necessary or advisable.
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each
Grantor further agrees, at Agent's request, to assemble the Collateral and make
it available to Agent at a place or places designated by Agent which are
reasonably convenient to Agent and such Grantor, whether at such Grantor's
premises or elsewhere. Without limiting the foregoing, Agent shall also have the
right to require that each Grantor store and keep any Collateral pending further
action by Agent, and while Collateral is so stored or kept, provide such guards
and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to
preserve and maintain Collateral in good condition. Until Agent is able to
effect a sale, lease, license or other
11
disposition of Collateral, Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral,
or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of
preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate
by Agent. Agent shall not have any obligation to any Grantor to maintain or
preserve the rights of any Grantor as against third parties with respect to
Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Agent. Agent may, if it so
elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of
Collateral and to enforce any of Agent's remedies (for the benefit of Agent and
Lenders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to
such appointment. Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any sale, lease,
license, other disposition of, or any collection, recovery, receipt, or
realization on, the Collateral to the Obligations as provided in the Credit
Agreement, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the
payment by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need
Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and
demands against Agent or any Lender arising out of the repossession, retention
or sale of the Collateral except such as arise solely out of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or such Lender as finally determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Grantor agrees that ten (10) days
prior notice by Agent of the time and place of any public sale or of the time
after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such
matters. Notwithstanding any such notice of sale, Agent shall not be obligated
to make any sale of Collateral. In connection with any sale, lease, license or
other disposition of Collateral, Agent may disclaim any warranties that might
arise in connection therewith and Agent shall have no obligation to provide any
warranties at such time. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if
the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to
pay all Obligations, including any attorneys' fees or other expenses incurred by
Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency.
(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each 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.
(c) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Agent to exercise
remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and
agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent (i) to fail to incur
expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agent to prepare Collateral for
disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into
finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to
obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to
obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third
party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected
or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account
Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any
adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against
Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through
the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to
advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general
circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to
contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for
expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral,
(vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition
of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii)
to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the
auction of assets of the types included in Collateral or that have the
reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets,
(ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to
disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment,
(xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent against risks
of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Agent a
guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to
the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers,
investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Agent in the
collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges
that the purpose of this Section 8(c) is to provide non-exhaustive indications
of what actions or omissions by Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in
the Agent's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions
or omissions by
12
Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not
being indicated in this Section 8(c). Without limitation upon the foregoing,
nothing contained in this Section 8(c) shall be construed to grant any rights to
any Grantor or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been granted or
imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this
Section 8(c).
(d) Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be required to make any demand
upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor,
any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the
payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or
remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect
guarantee thereof. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be required to marshal the
Collateral or any guarantee of the Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or
any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be cumulative. To the extent it
may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and
relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against
Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or
similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or
hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the
sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or
privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or
otherwise.
9. Grant of License to Use Property. For the purpose of enabling Agent to
exercise rights and remedies under Section 8 hereof (including, without limiting
the terms of Section 8 hereof, in order to take possession of, collect, receive,
assemble, process, appropriate, remove, realize upon, sell, lease, license,
assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of
Collateral) at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such
rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of
Agent and Lenders, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without
payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, license or
sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such
Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license
access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored
and to all Software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof
and an irrevocable license (exercisable without payment of rent or other
compensation to such Grantor) to use and occupy all real estate owned or leased
by such Grantor.
10. Limitation on Agent's and Lenders' Duty in Respect of Collateral.
Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral
in its possession or under its control. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have
any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the
possession or control of any agent or nominee of Agent or such Lender, or any
income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining thereto. Agent shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its
possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that
which it accords its own property. Agent shall not be liable or responsible for
any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value
thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehousemen, carrier,
forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or bailee selected by Agent in good
faith.
11. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against
any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become
insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or
should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any
Grantor's assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the 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 Obligations,
whether as a "voidable
13
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 Obligations shall be
reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded,
reduced, restored or returned.
12. Suretyship Waivers By Grantor; Obligations Absolute.

this Security Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, collateral
received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other
demands and notices of any description. thereof, all in such manner and at such

of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof.
(b) All rights of the Agent hereunder, the Security Interests and all

Secured Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the
foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or
waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other
Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release

or waiver of or consent under or departure from or any acceptance of partial
payment thereon and or settlement, compromise or adjustment of any Secured
Obligation or of any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the

the Secured Obligations or this Security Agreement.
13. Expenses and Attorneys Fees. Without limiting any Grantor's
obligations under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Grantor
