4. Covenants. So long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid, the Debtor agrees
to:
(a) keep the Collateral free from all security interests, liens, and
encumbrances other than those granted to the Bank;
(b) keep the Collateral insured, at its own cost and expense, naming the Bank as
an insured, under a lender's loss payable endorsement (or in any other manner
designated by the Bank) , in such amounts, with such insurers, under such
endorsements, and against such risks as may be acceptable to the Bank, and, on
request, to deliver the policies evidencing such insurance to the Bank;
(c) execute all documents requested by the Bank to perfect or preserve the
Bank's security interest in the Collateral (and authorizes the Bank to execute
any such documents as its attorney-in-fact) and pay the cost of filing such
documents;
(d) maintain such records and information with respect to the Collateral and its
financial condition and operations, as the Bank may, from time to time, require,
and allow the Bank to inspect such records and information and supply copies of
such records and information to the Bank; and

business structure.
If the Debtor fails to keep the Collateral insured as provided herein or fails
to pay any tax upon or other charge or claim against the Collateral, the Bank
may, in addition to any other remedy it may have (under this agreement or
otherwise) pay the cost of such insurance or the amount of such tax, other
charge or claim, and the amount so paid, together with interest at the highest
rate of interest then allowable on the Obligations secured hereby, shall be paid
to the Bank by the Debtor upon demand, and, until so paid, shall be a liability

financial responsibility or condition of the Debtor or the value of the
Collateral or the Bank's security interest therein;
3
then, in any such event (each, an "Event of Default"), the Bank may, at its
option, declare all Obligations secured hereby immediately due and payable, and
the Bank may require the Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it available
to the Bank at a place which is reasonably convenient to the Bank and the
Debtor. In addition, the Bank shall have, and may exercise, all the rights and
remedies conferred upon secured parties by the Uniform Commercial Code and other
applicable laws. The Debtor hereby irrevocable appoints the Bank as Debtor's
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Debtor and in
the name of Debtor or otherwise, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to
take any action and to execute any instrument that the Bank may deem necessary
or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without
limitation: (a) to assign, pledge, convey or otherwise transfer title in or
dispose of the Collateral to any third person, and (b) to file any claims, to
take any action or institute any proceedings which the Bank may deem necessary
or desirable to enforce the rights of the Bank with respect to any of the
Collateral.
6. Notification of Obligors. At any time, prior to or after default by the
Debtor, the Bank may notify the obligors on any of the Collateral of the
existence of its security interest and direct them to make payments directly to
the Bank. The Debtor, at the request of the Bank, shall also take such actions
and hold any sums received from such obligors in trust for the Bank. Until such
time as the Bank elects to exercise such rights, the Debtor is authorized, as
agent of the Bank, to collect and enforce those obligations.
7. Duties with respect to Collateral. The Bank shall have no duty to:
(a) collect, preserve, protect, insure or care for the Collateral or any
proceeds thereof;

(c) realize on the Collateral or any proceeds; or
(d) marshal the assets of the Debtor.
8. Costs of Enforcement. The Bank's reasonable expenses of realizing upon the
Collateral, including attorneys' fees, shall be paid by the Debtor. Any
notification of a sale or other disposition of the Collateral (or of other
action by the Bank) required to be given by the Bank, will be sufficient if
given personally or mailed by certified mail, not less than five (5) days prior
to the day on which such sale or other disposition will be made, and such
notification shall be deemed reasonable notice.
4
9. Miscellaneous. The waiver by the Bank of any default hereunder or of any
provision hereof shall not discharge the Debtor from liability hereunder and
such waiver shall be limited to the particular event of default or to the
particular provision and shall not operate as a waiver of any subsequent default
or of any other provision.
If there is more than one person or entity executing this agreement as Debtor,
their obligations hereunder shall be joint and several.
This agreement and the rights of the parties hereto shall be governed by the
laws of the State of New Jersey and shall be binding upon and inure to the
