or rights, including, without limitation those set forth on EXHIBIT E
attached hereto; and
(i) All amendments, extensions, renewals and extensions

Copyrights, and Mask Works and promptly advise Lender in writing of

and remedies of Lender in relation thereto, including the levy of any
legal process against any of the Intellectual Property Collateral.

indemnify Lender for all reasonable costs and reasonable expenses incurred in
the reasonable exercise of its rights under this Section 4.
5. Further Assurances; Attorney in Fact.
(a) On a continuing basis, Grantor will, upon the
reasonable request by Lender, subject to any prior licenses, encumbrances and
restrictions and prospective licenses, make, execute, acknowledge and deliver,
and file and record in the proper filing and recording places in the United
States, all such instruments, including appropriate financing and continuation
statements and collateral agreements and filings with the United States Patent
and Trademarks Office and the Register of Copyrights, and take all such action
as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as reasonably requested
by Lender, to perfect Lender's security interest in all Copyrights, Patents,
Trademarks, and Mask Works and otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of
this IP Agreement, or for assuring and confirming to Lender the grant or
perfection of a security interest in all Intellectual Property Collateral.
(b) In addition to Section 5(a) above, Grantor shall not
register any of its Copyrights or Mask Works with the Register of Copyrights
without first executing and simultaneously registering an IP Agreement, in the
identical form of this IP Agreement, with the Register of Copyrights, listing
such Copyrights(s) on Exhibit A thereto and/or such Mask Works on Exhibit D in
order to protect and perfect Lender's security interest in such

forward to the Lender, at the address listed above, a copy of, and the original
IP Agreement as filed with the Register of Copyrights.
(c) Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as
Grantor's attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of
Grantor and in the name of Grantor, Lender or otherwise, from time to time in
Lender's discretion, upon Grantor's failure or inability to do so, after written
request by Lender, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Lender
may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this IP Agreement,
including:
(i) To modify, in its sole discretion, without
first obtaining Grantor's approval of or signature to such
modification, Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C, and Exhibit D hereof, as
appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or interest in
any Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks or Mask Works acquired by Grantor
after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right,
title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks, or Mask Works
in which Grantor no longer has or claims any right, title or interest;
and
(ii) To file, in its sole discretion, one or more
financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, or other
notice filings or notations in appropriate filing offices, relative to
any of the Intellectual Property Collateral, with notice to, but
without the consent of, Grantor, with all appropriate jurisdictions, as
Lender deems appropriate, in order to further perfect or protect
Lender's interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral.

shall constitute an Event of Default under this IP Agreement:

Grantor in this IP Agreement, which breach is not cured within ten (10)
days of the occurrence thereof.
7. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default, Lender shall have the right to exercise all the remedies of a secured
party under the Massachusetts Uniform Commercial Code, including without
limitation the right to require Grantor to assemble the Intellectual Property
Collateral and any tangible property in which Lender has a security interest and
to make it available to Lender at a place designated by Lender. Lender shall
have a nonexclusive, royalty free license to use the Copyrights, Patents,
Trademarks, and Mask Works to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Lender
to exercise its rights and remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.
Grantor will pay any expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by
Lender in connection with the exercise of any of Lender's rights hereunder,
including without limitation any expense incurred in disposing of the
Intellectual Property Collateral. All of Lender's rights and remedies with
respect to the Intellectual Property Collateral shall be cumulative.
8. Indemnity. Grantor will indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Lender and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) obligations,
demands, claims, and liabilities asserted by any other party in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this IP Agreement; and (b) losses or expenses
incurred, or paid by Lender from or consequential to transactions between Lender
and Grantor (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses), except for
losses caused by Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
9. Termination. At such time as Grantor shall completely satisfy
all of the obligations secured hereunder, Lender shall execute and deliver to
Grantor and the appropriate registration/recording authorities, all releases,
terminations, and other instruments as may be necessary or proper to release the
security interest hereunder.
10. Course of Dealing. No course of dealing, nor any failure to
exercise, nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof.
-4-
11. Amendments. This IP Agreement may be amended only by a written
instrument signed by both parties hereto.
12. Counterparts. This IP Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which
together shall constitute the same instrument.
