necessary to maintain at all times the perfection of the Security Interests in
the Collateral granted hereunder and shall have delivered an opinion of counsel

may reasonably request, in order to create, preserve, perfect, confirm or
validate the Security Interests or to enable the Collateral Agent and the
Secured Parties to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement, or to enable the
Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies
hereunder with respect to any of the

Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower hereby
authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and file financing statements or
continuation statements without the Borrower's signature appearing thereon. The
Borrower agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction

or filing of any financing or continuation statements concerning the Collateral.

necessary licenses, permits and other governmental authorizations necessary in
any jurisdiction to enable the Borrower to perform its obligations in respect of
the Receivables and to administer, service and collect the Receivables.

change its credit or collection policies in a manner that is reasonably likely
to impair the collectibility of the Receivables.

manner as the Required Banks may reasonably require in order to reflect the
Security Interests.

be collected from its account debtors, as and when due, any and all amounts
owing under or on account of each Receivable (including, without limitation,
Receivables which are delinquent, such Receivables to be collected in accordance
with lawful collection procedures) and shall apply forthwith upon receipt
thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such
Receivables. Subject to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties hereunder if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Borrower may allow in the ordinary course of business as adjustments to
amounts owing under the Receivables (i) an extension or renewal of the time or
times of payment, or settlement for less than the total unpaid balance and (ii)
a refund, credit or other adjustment due as a result of returned, damaged, or
non-conforming merchandise, products or services, all in accordance with the
Borrower's sound business judgment. The costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorney's fees) of collection, whether incurred by the
Borrower or the Collateral Agent, shall be borne by the Borrower.
(G) Without the prior written consent of the Required Banks, the Borrower
will not sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any
option with respect to, any Collateral except that, subject to the rights of the
Agents and the Banks hereunder if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
7
9
continuing, the Borrower may dispose of Collateral as permitted by the terms of
the Credit Agreement.
(H) The Borrower will, promptly upon request, provide to the Collateral
Agent all information and evidence it may reasonably request concerning the
Collateral to enable the Collateral Agent to enforce the provisions of this
Agreement.

opinion of counsel is to be delivered pursuant to Section 4(A), the Borrower
shall, at its cost and expense, cause to be delivered to the Secured Parties an
opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,
substantially in the form of Exhibit C to the effect that all financing
statements and amendments or supplements thereto, continuation statements and
other documents required to be recorded or filed in order to continue the
perfection of the Security Interests following the proposed action by the

that all filing fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings
have been paid in full.

specified in Section 3.01 of the Credit Agreement have been satisfied, the
Borrower will deliver to the Collateral Agent a duly executed Magellan Lockbox
Letter.

(A) There is hereby established with the Collateral Agent a cash collateral
account for the Borrower (the "Collateral Account") in the name and under the
control of the Collateral Agent into which there shall be deposited from time to
time (i) the cash proceeds of the Collateral (other than any cash proceeds of
the Insurance Payments or the Insurance Policies) required to be delivered to
the Collateral Agent pursuant to subsection (B) of this Section 5 or any other
provision of this Agreement and (ii) the Borrower LC Amount received by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement. Any
income received by the Collateral Agent with respect to the balance from time to
time standing to the credit of the Collateral Account, including any interest or
capital gains on Liquid Investments, shall remain, or be deposited, in the
Collateral Account. The cash amounts on deposit from time to time in the
Collateral Account together with any Liquid Investments from time to time made
pursuant to subsection (D) of this Section shall constitute part of the
Collateral hereunder and shall not constitute payment of the Secured Obligations
until applied thereto as hereinafter provided.
8
10
(B) The Borrower shall instruct all Obligors to make all payments in
respect of the Eligible Receivables either (i) directly to the Collateral Agent
(by instructing that such payments be remitted to a post office box which shall
be in the name and under the control of the Collateral Agent) or (ii) to one or
more other banks in any state in the United States (by instructing that such
payments be remitted to a post office box which shall be in the name and under
the control of such bank) under a Lockbox Letter substantially in the form of
Exhibit B hereto duly executed by the Borrower and such bank or under other
arrangements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent, pursuant to which the Borrower shall have irrevocably instructed such
other bank (and such other bank shall have agreed) to remit all proceeds of such
payments directly to the Collateral Agent for deposit into the Collateral
Account or as the Collateral Agent may otherwise instruct such bank (the
"MAGELLAN LOCKBOX LETTER"). All such payments made to the Collateral Agent shall
be deposited in the Collateral Account. In addition to the foregoing, the
Borrower agrees that if the Proceeds of any Collateral hereunder (including the
payments made in respect of Receivables) shall be received by it, the Borrower
shall as promptly as possible deposit such Proceeds into the Collateral Account.
Until so deposited, all such Proceeds shall be held in trust by the Borrower for
the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and shall not be commingled
with any other funds or property of the Borrower.
(C) The balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Collateral
Account shall, except upon the occurrence and continuation of a Security Event
or an Event of Default, be distributed to the Borrower upon the order of the
Borrower. If immediately available cash on deposit in the Collateral Account is
not sufficient to make any distribution to the Borrower referred to in the
previous sentence of this Section 5(C), the Collateral Agent shall liquidate as
promptly as practicable Liquid Investments as required to obtain sufficient cash
to make such distribution and, notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 5, such distribution shall not be made until such liquidation has taken
place. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent shall, if so instructed by the Required Banks, apply or cause
to be applied (subject to collection) any or all of the balance from time to
time standing to the credit of the Collateral Account to the payment of the
Secured Obligations in the manner specified in Section 10.
(D) Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account aggregating $1,000,000 or
more shall be invested and re-invested from time to time in such Liquid
Investments as the Borrower shall determine, which Liquid Investments shall be
under the control of the Collateral Agent, provided that, if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall, if instructed by
9
11
the Required Banks, liquidate any such Liquid Investment and apply or cause to
be applied the proceeds thereof to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the
manner specified in Section 10.
SECTION 6. Insurance Account.
(A) There is hereby established with the Collateral Agent a cash collateral
account for the Borrower (the "Insurance Account") in the name and under the
control of the Collateral Agent into which there shall be deposited from time to
time any amounts received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 5.03(c) of
the Credit Agreement. Insurance Payments not identified to a particular Borrower
by the payor shall be deposited in the Insurance Account of the Borrower
designated by the Company by notice to the Collateral Agent or, in the absence
of such notice, shall be deposited in the Insurance Account of the Company. Any
income received by the Collateral Agent with respect to the balance from time to
time standing to the credit of the Insurance Account, including any interest or
capital gains on Liquid Investments, shall remain, or be deposited, in the
Insurance Account. The cash amounts on deposit from time to time in the
Insurance Account together with any Liquid Investments from time to time made
pursuant to subsection (C) of this Section shall constitute part of the
Collateral hereunder and shall not constitute payment of the Secured Obligations
until applied thereto as hereinafter provided.
(B) The balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Insurance
Account shall, except upon the occurrence and continuation of a Default, be
distributed to the Borrower upon the order of the Borrower. If immediately
available cash on deposit in the Insurance Account is not sufficient to make any
distribution to the Borrower referred to in the previous sentence of this
Section 6(B), the Collateral Agent shall liquidate as promptly as practicable
Liquid Investments as required to obtain sufficient cash to make such
distribution and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, such
distribution shall not be made until such liquidation has taken place. Upon the
occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall,
if so instructed by the Required Banks, apply or cause to be applied (subject to
collection) any or all of the balance from time to time standing to the credit
of the Insurance Account in the manner specified in Section 10.
(C) Amounts on deposit in the Insurance Account aggregating $1,000,000 or
more shall be invested and re-invested from time to time in such Liquid
Investments as the Borrower shall determine, which Liquid Investments shall be
under the control of the Collateral Agent; provided that, if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall, if instructed by the
Required Banks, liquidate any such Liquid Investment and apply or cause to
10
12
be applied the proceeds thereof to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the
manner specified in Section 10.
SECTION 7. General Authority.
The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent its true and
lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of the Borrower,
the Agents, any other Secured Parties or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit
of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, but at the Borrower's
expense, to the extent permitted by law (including, without limitation,
applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders) to exercise, at any time and
from time to time while and only after an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the
Collateral:
(i) to demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give acquittance for
any and all monies due or to become due thereon or by virtue thereof;
(ii) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action
or proceeding with respect thereto;
(iii) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the
same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the
Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof; and
(iv) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make
any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto;
provided that the Collateral Agent shall give the Borrower not less than ten
days' prior written notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended
disposition of any of the Collateral, except any Collateral which is perishable
or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a
recognized market. The Borrower agrees that such notice constitutes "reasonable
notification" within the meaning of Section 9-504(3) of the UCC.
SECTION 8. Remedies upon Event of Default.
(A) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral
Agent may, at the direction of the Required Banks, exercise on behalf of the
Secured Parties all rights of a secured party under the UCC (or, if the Uniform
Commercial Code is not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are
exercised, the UCC as in effect in the State of New York to the extent not
prohibited by the laws of such jurisdiction), and, in addition, the Collateral
Agent may, at the direction of the Required Banks, without being required to
give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory
provisions
11
13
of law, (i) withdraw all cash and Liquid Investments in the Collateral Account
and the Insurance Account and apply such cash and Liquid Investments and other
cash, if any, then held by it as Collateral as specified in Section 10 and (ii)
if there shall be no such cash or Liquid Investments or if such cash and Liquid
Investments shall be insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations in full,
sell the Collateral (subject to any applicable laws, rules, regulations and
orders) or any part thereof at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or
for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably deem satisfactory. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral (subject to any applicable
laws, rules, regulations and orders) so sold at any public sale (or, if the
Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type
which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any
private sale). The Borrower will execute and deliver such documents and take
such other action as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary or
advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law. Upon
any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and
transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold (subject to any
applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders). Each purchaser at any such sale
shall (subject to any applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders) hold the
Collateral so sold to it absolutely and free from any claim or right of
whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Borrower
which may be waived, and the Borrower, to the extent permitted by law, hereby
specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or
may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The notice (if any) of
such sale required by Section 7 shall (1) in the case of a public sale, state
the time and place fixed for such sale, and (2) in the case of a private sale,
state the day after which such sale may be consummated. Any such public sale
shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such
place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix in the notice of such sale. At
any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in
separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may determine. The Collateral Agent
shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The
Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or
private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement
at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time
or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or
any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so
sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the selling price is paid by
the purchaser thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in
case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so
sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon
like notice. The Collateral Agent, instead of exercising the power of sale
herein conferred upon it (subject to any applicable laws, rules, regulations and
orders) may, at the direction of the
12
14
Required Banks, proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the
Security Interests and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a
judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.
(B) For the purpose of enforcing any and all rights and remedies under this
Agreement the Collateral Agent may (i) require the Borrower to, and the Borrower
agrees that it will, at its expense and upon the request of the Collateral
Agent, forthwith assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by the
Collateral Agent and make it available at a place reasonably designated by the
Collateral Agent which is, in its opinion, reasonably convenient to the
Collateral Agent and the Borrower, whether at the premises of the Borrower or
otherwise, (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter, with or
without process of law and without breach of the peace, any premise where any of
the Collateral is or may be located, and without charge or liability to it seize
and remove such Collateral from such premises, (iii) have access to and use the
Borrower's books and records relating to the Collateral and (iv) prior to the
disposition of the Collateral, store or transfer it without charge in or by
means of any storage or transportation facility owned or leased by the Borrower,
process, repair or recondition it or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any
reasonable manner and to the extent the Collateral Agent deems appropriate and,
in connection with such preparation and disposition, use without charge any
trademark, trade name, copyright, patent or technical process used by the
Borrower.
SECTION 9. Limitation on Duty of Collateral Agent in Respect of
Collateral.
Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or
control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income
thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other
rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if
the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it
accords its own property, and 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 warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency,
consignee or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good
faith.
SECTION 10. Application of Proceeds.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
the proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the
Collateral and any cash held in the Collateral Account and Insurance Account
shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in the following order of priorities:
13
15
first, to payment of the expenses of such sale or other realization,
including reasonable compensation to agents and counsel for the Collateral
Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the
Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and any other unreimbursed
expenses, in each case for which the Collateral Agent or any Bank is to be
reimbursed pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and unpaid fees owing to the
Agents under the Credit Agreement;
second, to the ratable payment of accrued but unpaid interest on any
Loans made to the Borrower and Letter of Credit commissions with respect
to Letters of Credit issued at the request of the Borrower;
third, to the ratable payment of unpaid principal of the Loans made
to the Borrower and unpaid Reimbursement Obligations with respect to
Letters of Credit issued at the request of the Borrower;
fourth, to the ratable payment of all other Secured Obligations
(other than the Guaranteed Obligations), until all such Secured
Obligations shall have been paid in full;
fifth, to the ratable payment of all Guaranteed Obligations, until
all such Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full; and
finally, to payment to the Borrower or its successors or assigns, or
as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then
remaining from such proceeds;
(b) The Collateral Agent may make distributions hereunder in cash or in
kind or, on a ratable basis, in any combination thereof. If at any time any
monies collected or received by the Collateral Agent are distributable pursuant
to this Section in respect of a Letter of Credit Obligation which is a
contingent obligation at such time, then the Collateral Agent shall invest such
amounts in Liquid Investments selected by it and shall hold all such amounts so
distributable and all such Liquid Investments and the net proceeds thereof in
trust for application to the payment of such Letter of Credit Obligation at such
time as such Letter of Credit Obligation is no longer a contingent obligation.
If the Collateral Agent holds any amounts which were distributable in respect of
any Letter of Credit Obligations after all Letters of Credit have expired and
all amounts payable with respect thereto have been paid, such amounts shall be
applied in the order set forth in subsection (a) above.
(c) In making the determinations and allocations required by this Section,
the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the Banks for actions
taken in reliance on information supplied by the Banks as to the amounts of the
Secured
14
16
Obligations held by them. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent
pursuant to this Section shall be final, and the Collateral Agent shall have no
duty to inquire as to the application by the Banks of any amount distributed to
them. However, if at any time the Collateral Agent determines that an allocation
or distribution previously made pursuant to this Section was based on a mistake
of fact (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, mistakes
based on any assumption that principal or interest has been paid by payments
which are subsequently recovered from the recipient thereof through the
operation of any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other laws or
otherwise), the Collateral Agent may in its discretion, but shall not be
obligated to, adjust subsequent allocations and distributions hereunder so that,
on a cumulative basis, the Collateral Agent and the Banks receive the
distributions to which they would have been entitled if such mistake of fact had
not been made.
SECTION 11. Appointment of Co-Agents.
At any time or times, in order to comply with any legal requirement in any
jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent may appoint another bank or trust company or
one or more other Persons, either to act as collateral co-agent or collateral
co-agents, jointly with the Collateral Agent, or to act as separate collateral
agent or collateral agents on behalf of the Secured Parties with such power and
authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions
hereof and may be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the
discretion of the Collateral Agent, include provisions for the protection of
each such collateral co-agent or separate collateral agent similar to the
provisions of Article 7 of the Credit Agreement).
SECTION 12. Designated Lockbox Bank. The Designated Lockbox Bank shall
have the rights and obligations of the Collateral Agent in respect of the
Collateral Account specified in Section 5 of this Agreement, provided that if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Designated Lockbox Bank
shall exercise such rights and perform such obligations at the direction of the
Collateral Agent. In exercising such rights and performing such obligations the
Designated Lockbox Bank shall have the benefit of all privileges, immunities and
indemnities provided for the Collateral Agent under this Agreement including
without limitation the provisions of Section 13 hereof. The Designated Lockbox
Bank may resign as Designated Lockbox Bank in accordance with the provisions of
Section 7.08 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 13. Expenses.
The Borrower agrees that it will, on demand, pay to the Collateral Agent
the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and of any other experts, which the
15
17
Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or
enforcement of this Agreement, including such expenses as are incurred to
preserve the value of the Collateral and the validity, perfection, rank and
value of any Security Interest, (y) the collection, sale or other disposition of
any of the Collateral or (z) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the
rights conferred upon it hereunder. The obligation to pay any such amount shall
be an additional Secured Obligation hereunder, and each such amount shall bear
interest from the time of demand at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.
SECTION 14. Termination of Security Interests; Release of
Collateral.
(a) Upon the repayment in full of all Secured Obligations, the termination
of the Commitments under the Credit Agreement and the cancellation of all
Letters of Credit, the Security Interests and all obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement shall terminate and all rights to and interests in the
Collateral shall revert to the Borrower.
(b) Unless otherwise instructed by the Required Lenders at a time while an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the consummation of any
Asset Sale permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent
shall release the Collateral (but not any Proceeds thereof) sold pursuant to
such Asset Sale. Any such release shall not require the consent of any Bank, and
the Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in relying on a certificate of the
Borrower as to whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at any
relevant time or any particular Asset Sale is permitted by the terms of the
Credit Agreement.
(c) In addition to releases of Collateral permitted pursuant to subsection
(b) any time and from time to time prior to such termination of the Security
Interests, the Collateral Agent may release any of the Collateral with the prior
written consent of the Required Banks; provided that the Collateral Agent may
release all or substantially all of the Collateral only with the prior written
consent of all of the Banks.
(d) Upon the termination of the Security Interests or any release of any
Collateral permitted by this Section, the Collateral Agent will promptly, at the
expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver to the Borrower such documents as
the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of the
Security Interests or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be,
including UCC termination statements, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver
to the Borrower or to whomever lawfully shall be entitled to receive the same,
such of the Collateral as may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent.
SECTION 15. Notices.
16
18
All notices, communications and distributions to any party hereunder shall
be given in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 16. Waivers, Non-exclusive Remedies.
No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay
in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right under this
Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise by the Collateral Agent of any right under this Agreement preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights
in the Financing Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other
remedies provided by law.
SECTION 17. Successors and Assigns.
This Agreement is for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties and their successors and assigns, and in the event of an
assignment of all or any of the Secured Obligations, the rights hereunder, to
the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with
such indebtedness. This Agreement shall be binding on the Borrower and the
Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns.
SECTION 18. Changes in Writing.
Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged or terminated orally, but only in writing signed by the Borrower and
the Collateral Agent with the consent of the Required Banks (or in the case of
changes to Section 14 hereof, the consent of all of the Banks).
SECTION 19. New York Law.
This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the
laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory
provisions of law and except to the extent that remedies provided by the laws of
any jurisdiction other than New York are governed by the laws of such
jurisdiction.
SECTION 20. Severability.
If any provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) the other provisions hereof
shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be
liberally construed in favor of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties in order to carry out
17
19
the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible; and (ii) the
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction.
SECTION 21. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and
hereto were upon the same instrument.

OPINION OF
COUNSEL FOR BORROWER
* * * *
1. The provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Subsidiary Security
Agreements are sufficient to create in favor of the Collateral Agent a security
interest in all right, title and interest of each Borrower in those items and
types of the Collateral described in the Security Agreement to which it is a
party in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York.
2. Financing statements on Form UCC-1 have been duly executed by the
Borrower and have been duly filed in each filing office indicated in the
Perfection Certificate of the Borrower under the Uniform Commercial Code in
effect in each state in which said filing offices are located. The. description
of the Collateral set forth in said financing statements is sufficient to
perfect a security interest in the items and types of Collateral described
therein in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a
financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in such
states. Such filings are sufficient to perfect the security interests created by
the Security Agreement in all right, title and interest of the Borrower party
thereto in those items and types of Collateral described in the Security
Agreement in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of
financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in such states, except
that we express no opinion as to personal property affixed to real property in
such a manner as to become a fixture under the laws of any state in which
Collateral may be located, and we call your attention to the fact that the
Collateral Agent's security interest in certain of such Collateral may not be
perfected by the filing of financing statements under the Uniform Commercial
Code.
