of the Collateral; except that Secured Party shall have the right to possess (i)
any chattel paper or instrument that constitutes a part of the Collateral, and
(ii) any other Collateral in which Secured Party's security interest may be
perfected only by possession. Secured Party may inspect any of the Collateral
during normal business hours after giving Debtor reasonable prior notice. If

maintenance and repair), (ii) remove any of the Collateral from the continental
United States, or (iii) sell, rent, lease, mortgage, license, grant a security

Secured Party may discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other
encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and may pay for the

agrees to reimburse Secured Party, on demand, all costs and expenses incurred by
Secured Party in connection with such payment or performance and agrees that
such reimbursement obligation shall constitute Indebtedness.
(e) Debtor shall, at all times, keep accurate and complete records of the
Collateral, and Secured Party shall have the right to inspect and make copies of
all of Debtor's books and records relating to the Collateral during normal
business hours, after giving Debtor reasonable prior notice.
(f) Debtor agrees and acknowledges that any third person who may at any
time possess all or any portion of the Collateral shall be deemed to hold, and
shall hold, the Collateral as the agent of, and as pledge holder for, Secured
Party. Secured Party may at any time give notice to any third person described
in the preceding sentence that such third person is holding the Collateral as
the agent of, and as pledge holder for, the Secured Party. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Debtor may place Collateral with a third party contract manufacturer
provided that all parties enter into a mutually acceptable Tri-Party Agreement.
4. INSURANCE.
(a) Debtor shall at all times bear the entire risk of any loss, theft,
damage to, or destruction of, any of the Collateral from any cause whatsoever.
(b) Debtor agrees to keep the Collateral insured against loss or damage by
fire and extended coverage perils, theft, burglary, and for any or all
Collateral which are vehicles, for risk of loss by collision, and if requested
by Secured Party, against such other risks as Secured Party may reasonably
require. The insurance coverage shall be in an amount no less than the full
replacement value of the Collateral, and deductible amounts, insurers and
policies shall be acceptable to Secured Party. Debtor shall deliver to Secured
Party policies or certificates of insurance evidencing such coverage. Each
policy shall name Secured Party as a loss payee, shall provide for coverage to
Secured Party regardless of the breach by Debtor of any warranty or
representation made therein, shall not be subject to co-insurance, and shall
provide that coverage may not be canceled or altered by the insurer except upon
thirty (30) days prior written notice to Secured Party. Debtor appoints Secured
Party as its attorney-in-fact to make proof of loss, claim for insurance and
adjustments with insurers, and to receive payment of and execute or endorse all
documents, checks or drafts in connection with insurance payments. Secured Party
shall not act as Debtor's attorney-in-fact unless Debtor is in default. Proceeds
of insurance shall be applied, at the option of Secured Party, to repair or
replace the Collateral or to reduce any of the Indebtedness.
5. REPORTS.
(a) Debtor shall promptly notify Secured Party of (i) any change in the
name of Debtor, (ii) any change in the state of its incorporation, organization
or registration, (iii) any relocation of its chief executive offices, (iv) any
relocation of any material portion of the Collateral, (v) any material portion
of the Collateral being lost, stolen, missing, destroyed, materially damaged or
worn out, or (vi) any lien, claim or encumbrance other than Permitted Liens
attaching to or being made against any material portion of the Collateral.
(b) Debtor will deliver to Secured Party financial statements as follows.
If Debtor is a privately held company, then Debtor agrees to provide monthly
financial statements, certified by Debtor's president or chief financial officer
including a balance sheet, statement of operations and cash flow statement
within 30 days of each month end and its complete audited annual financial
statements, certified by a recognized firm of certified public accountants,
within 120 days of fiscal year end or at such time as Debtor's Board of
Directors receives the audit. If Debtor is a publicly held company, then Debtor
agrees to provide quarterly unaudited statements and annual audited statements,
audited by a recognized firm of certified public accountants, within 10 days
after the statements are provided to the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). All such statements are to be prepared using generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") provided that those financial statements that are
unaudited are subject to normal year-end adjustments, which adjustments Debtor
does not expect to be material, and do not contain all footnotes required under
generally accepted accounting principles, and, if Debtor is a publicly held
company, are to be in compliance with SEC requirements.
6. FURTHER ASSURANCES.
(a) Debtor shall, upon request of Secured Party, furnish to Secured Party
such further information, execute and deliver to Secured Party such documents
and instruments (including, without limitation, Uniform Commercial Code
financing statements) and shall do such other acts and things as Secured Party
may at any time reasonably request relating to the perfection or protection of
the security interest created by this Agreement or for the purpose of carrying
out the intent of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Debtor shall
cooperate and do all acts deemed necessary or advisable by Secured Party to
continue in Secured Party a perfected first security interest in the Collateral,
and shall obtain and furnish to Secured Party any subordinations, releases,
landlord waivers, lessor waivers, mortgagee waivers, or control agreements, and
similar documents as may be from time to time reasonably requested by, and in
form and substance satisfactory to, Secured Party.
(b) Debtor authorizes Secured Party to file a financing statement and
amendments thereto describing the Collateral and containing any other
information required by the applicable Uniform Commercial Code. Debtor shall, if
any certificate of title be required or permitted by law for any of the
Collateral, obtain and promptly deliver to Secured Party such certificate
showing the lien of this Agreement with respect to the Collateral. Debtor
ratifies its prior authorization for Secured Party to file financing statements
and amendments thereto describing the Collateral and containing any other
information required by the Uniform Commercial Code if filed prior to the date
hereof.
(c) Debtor shall indemnify and defend the Secured Party, its successors and
assigns, and their respective directors, officers and employees, from and
against all third party claims, actions and suits (including, without
limitation, related attorneys' fees) of any kind whatsoever arising, directly or
indirectly, in
connection with any of the Collateral provided that such claim, action or suit
does not arise out of Secured Party's bad faith, willful misconduct, gross
negligence or breach of the Agreement.
7. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.
(a) Debtor shall be in default under this Agreement and each of the other
Debt Documents if:
(i) Debtor breaches its obligation to pay when due any installment
or other amount due or coming due under any of the Debt Documents and fails to
cure the breach within ten (10) days;
(ii) Debtor, without the prior written consent of Secured Party,
attempts to or does sell, rent, lease, license, mortgage, grant a security
interest in, or otherwise transfer or encumber (except for Permitted Liens) any

Section 4;
(iv) Debtor breaches any of its other obligations under any of the
Debt Documents and fails to cure that breach within thirty (30) days after
written notice from Secured Party;
(v) Any warranty, representation or statement made by Debtor in any
of the Debt Documents or otherwise in connection with any of the Indebtedness
shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made;
(vi) Any material portion of the Collateral is subjected to
attachment, execution, levy, seizure or confiscation in any legal proceeding or
otherwise, or if any legal or administrative proceeding is commenced against
Debtor or any material portion of the Collateral, which in the good faith
judgment of Secured Party subjects any material portion of the Collateral to a
material risk of attachment, execution, levy, seizure or confiscation and no
bond is posted or protective order obtained to negate such risk;
(vii) Debtor breaches or is in default under any other agreement
between Debtor and Secured Party;
(viii) Debtor or any guarantor or other obligor for any of the
Indebtedness (collectively "GUARANTOR") dissolves, terminates its existence,
becomes insolvent or ceases to do business as a going concern;
(ix) If Debtor or any Guarantor is a natural person, Debtor or any
such Guarantor dies or becomes incompetent;
(x) A receiver is appointed for all or of any part of the property
of Debtor or any Guarantor, or Debtor or any Guarantor makes any assignment for
the benefit of creditors;
(xi) Debtor or any Guarantor files a petition under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law, or any such petition is filed against Debtor or any
Guarantor and is not dismissed within sixty (60) days;
(xii) Debtor's improper and unauthorized filing of an amendment or
termination statement relating to a filed financing statement describing the
Collateral;
(xiii) There is a material adverse change in the Debtor's financial
condition as determined solely by Secured Party. Secured Party understands that
Debtor anticipates reporting continued losses and this alone shall not be
construed as a material adverse change. In addition, Secured Party understands
that Debtor anticipates the need to incur additional indebtedness. Such
additional indebtedness shall not be construed as a material adverse change in
and of itself so long as such debt is on commercially reasonable terms.
(xiv) Any Guarantor revokes or attempts to revoke its guaranty of any
of the Indebtedness or fails to observe or perform any covenant, condition or
agreement to be performed under any guaranty or other related document to which
it is a party;
(xv) Debtor is in default under any other material obligation for
(A) borrowed money, (B) the deferred purchase price of property or (C) payments
due under any lease agreement; or
(xvi) At any time during the term of this Agreement Debtor sells more
than 50% of its interest in the company to another corporation or business or
all or substantially all of its assets without Secured Party's prior written
consent, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(b) If Debtor is in default, the Secured Party, at its option, may declare
any or all of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, without demand
or notice to Debtor or any Guarantor. The accelerated obligations and
liabilities shall bear interest (both before and after any judgment) until paid
in full at the lower of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate not
prohibited by applicable law.
(c) During default, Secured Party shall have all of the rights and remedies
of a Secured Party under the Uniform Commercial Code, and under any other
applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, Secured Party shall have the
right during Debtor's default to (i) notify any account debtor of Debtor or any
obligor on any instrument which constitutes part of the Collateral to make
payment to the Secured Party, (ii) with or without legal process, peaceably
enter any premises where the Collateral may be and take possession of and remove
the Collateral from the premises or store it on the premises, (iii) sell the
Collateral at public or private sale, in whole or in part, and have the right to
bid and purchase at said sale, or (iv) lease or otherwise dispose of all or part
of the Collateral, applying proceeds from such disposition to the obligations
then in default. If requested by Secured Party, Debtor shall promptly assemble
the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place to be
designated by Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
Secured Party may also render any or all of the Collateral unusable at the
Debtor's premises and may dispose of such Collateral on such premises without
liability for rent or costs. Any notice that Secured Party is required to give
to Debtor under the Uniform Commercial Code of the time and place of any public
sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of
the Collateral is to be made shall be deemed to constitute reasonable notice if
such notice is given to the last known address of Debtor at least ten (10) days
prior to such action.
(d) Proceeds from any sale or lease or other disposition shall be applied:
first, to all costs of repossession, storage, and disposition including without
limitation attorneys', appraisers', and auctioneers' fees; second, to discharge
the obligations then in default; third, to discharge any other Indebtedness of
Debtor to Secured Party, whether as obligor, endorser, guarantor, surety or
indemnitor; fourth, to expenses incurred in paying or settling liens and claims
against the Collateral; and lastly, to Debtor, if there exists any surplus.
Debtor shall remain fully liable for any deficiency.
(e) Debtor agrees to pay all reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs
incurred by Secured Party in connection with the enforcement, assertion, defense
or preservation of Secured Party's rights and remedies under this Agreement, or
if prohibited by law, such lesser sum as may be permitted. Debtor further agrees
that such fees and costs shall constitute Indebtedness.
(f) Secured Party's rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise
arising are cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Neither
the failure nor any delay on the part of the Secured Party to exercise any
right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude
any other or further exercise of that or any other right, power or privilege.
SECURED PARTY SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE WAIVED ANY OF ITS RIGHTS UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY OTHER AGREEMENT, INSTRUMENT OR PAPER SIGNED BY DEBTOR
UNLESS SUCH WAIVER IS EXPRESSED IN WRITING AND SIGNED BY SECURED PARTY. A waiver
on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or
remedy on any future occasion.
(g) DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO A JURY
TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS
AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER DEBT DOCUMENTS, ANY OF THE INDEBTEDNESS SECURED
HEREBY, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY RELATING TO THE SUBJECT
MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP
THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY. THE SCOPE OF THIS
WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE
FILED IN ANY COURT. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE. THIS WAIVER MAY NOT BE MODIFIED
EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING. THE WAIVER ALSO SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT
AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER
DEBT DOCUMENTS, OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THIS
TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTION. THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN
CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
8. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) This Agreement, any Note and/or any of the other Debt Documents may be
assigned, in whole or in part, by Secured Party without notice to Debtor. Debtor
agrees that if Debtor receives written notice of an assignment from Secured
Party, Debtor will pay all amounts payable under any assigned Debt Documents to
such assignee or as instructed by Secured Party. Until Debtor receives written
notice of such assignment, Debtor may pay all amounts payable under the Debt
Documents to the Secured Party, who shall be solely responsible for forwarding
such payments to the assignee. Debtor also agrees to confirm in writing receipt
of the notice of assignment as may be reasonably requested by Secured Party or
assignee.
(b) All notices to be given in connection with this Agreement shall be in
writing, shall be addressed to the parties at their respective addresses set
forth in this Agreement (unless and until a different address may be specified
in a written notice to the other party), and shall be deemed given (i) on the
date of receipt if delivered in hand or by facsimile transmission, (ii) on the
next business day after being sent by express mail or overnight carrier, and
(iii) on the fourth business day after being sent by regular, registered or
certified mail. As used herein, the term "business day" shall mean and include
any day other than Saturdays, Sundays, or other days on which commercial banks
in New York, New York are required or authorized to be closed.
(c) Secured Party may correct patent errors and fill in all blanks in this
Agreement or in any Collateral Schedule consistent with the written agreement of
the parties.
(d) Time is of the essence of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be

their respective heirs, executors, representatives, successors and assigns, and
shall inure to the benefit of Secured Party, its successors and assigns.
(e) This Agreement and its Collateral Schedules constitute the entire
agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement and supersede all prior understandings (whether written, verbal or
implied) with respect to such subject matter. THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS COLLATERAL
SCHEDULES SHALL NOT BE CHANGED OR TERMINATED ORALLY OR BY COURSE OF CONDUCT, BUT
ONLY BY A WRITING SIGNED BY BOTH PARTIES. Section headings contained in this
Agreement have been included for convenience only, and shall not affect the
construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
(f) This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until all of the
Indebtedness has been indefeasibly paid in full to Secured Party or its
assignee. The surrender, upon payment or otherwise, of any Note or any of the
other documents evidencing any of the Indebtedness shall not affect the right of
Secured Party to retain the Collateral for such other Indebtedness as may then
exist or as it may be reasonably contemplated will exist in the future. This
Agreement shall automatically be reinstated if Secured Party is ever required to
return or restore the payment of all or any portion of the Indebtedness (all as
though such payment had never been made).
(g) Debtor authorizes Secured Party to use its name, logo and/or trademark
without notice to or consent by Debtor, in connection with certain promotional
materials that Secured Party may disseminate to the public. The promotional
materials may include, but are not limited to, brochures, video tape, internet
website, press releases, advertising in newspaper and/or other periodicals,
lucites, and any other materials relating the fact that Secured Party has a
financing relationship with Debtor and such materials may be developed,
disseminated and used without Debtor's review. Nothing herein obligates Secured
Party to use Debtor's name, logo and/or trademark, in any promotional materials
of Secured Party.

SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF
LAWS PRINCIPLES OF SUCH STATE), INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY
AND PERFORMANCE, REGARDLESS OF THE LOCATION OF THE COLLATERAL.
