C. The Grantors have entered into the Security Agreement in order to
induce the Lenders to make Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of
Credit. Section 7.15 of the Security Agreement provides that additional
Subsidiaries may become Grantors under the Security Agreement by execution and
delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned
Subsidiary (the "NEW GRANTOR") is executing this Supplement in accordance with
the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Grantor under the Security
Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and the
Issuing Bank to issue additional Letters of Credit and as consideration for
Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued.
Accordingly, the Collateral Agent and the New Grantor agree as follows:
SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 7.15 of the Security Agreement,
the New Grantor by its signature below becomes a Grantor under the Security
Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a
Grantor and the New Grantor hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of
the Security Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor thereunder and (b)
represents and warrants that the
2
representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor thereunder are true and
correct on and as of the date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New
Grantor, as security for the payment and performance in full of the Obligations
(as defined in the Credit Agreement), does hereby create and grant to the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Obligees,
their successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien on all of the New
Grantor's right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the
Security Agreement) of the New Grantor. Each reference to a "GRANTOR" in the
Security Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Grantor. The Security
Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
SECTION 2. The New Grantor represents and warrants to the Collateral
Agent and the other Obligees that this Supplement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a
single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Collateral
Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that, when taken
together, bear the signatures of the New Grantor and the Collateral Agent.
Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile
transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart
of this Supplement.
SECTION 4. The New Grantor hereby represents and warrants that (a) set
forth on Schedule I attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of the
location of any and all Collateral of it and a listing of any and all
Intellectual Property now owned by the New Grantor and (b) the true and correct
location of the chief executive office of the New Grantor is set forth under its
signature hereto.
SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Security
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.
SECTION 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein and in the Security Agreement shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the
validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall
endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions.

SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing
and given as provided in Section 7.01 of the Security Agreement. All
communications and notices hereunder to the New Grantor shall be given to it in
care of the Borrower.

its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement,
including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of counsel for
the Collateral Agent.
