in each Account (collectively, the "ACCOUNT COLLATERAL").
(b) The Lender hereby appoints the Bank as the Lender's pledgee-in-
possession for the Accounts and all of the Account Collateral, and the Bank by
its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby accepts such appointment and
agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. The Company hereby agrees to
such appointment of the Bank and further agrees that the Bank, on behalf of the
Lender, shall be entitled to exercise, upon the instructions of the Lender or
the Servicer, acting in its capacity as agent on behalf of the Lender, any and
all rights
which the Lender may have under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, all
promissory notes, all agreements pursuant to which security interests and liens

contrary notwithstanding, each of the Lender, the Servicer and the Company
hereby authorize the Bank after it has received notice from the Collateral Agent
that an Event of Termination has occurred under the Financing, to take such
action, without any cost or expense to the Bank, as shall from time to time
thereafter be specified in writing by the Collateral Agent to enable the
Collateral Agent to exercise its rights and remedies with respect to the lien
and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent as part of the Financing,
provided that such action is not in contravention of Section 4 of this
-
Agreement.

each of the Lender, the Servicer, the Company and the Bank hereby agree that

Bank by the Collateral Agent shall supersede those given by the Lender or the
Servicer acting on the Lender's behalf and (ii) the Bank shall not comply with
any instructions given by the Lender or the Servicer unless otherwise authorized
to do so by the Collateral Agent.
4. Events of Default and Termination. (a) At all times after the Bank's
---------------------------------
receipt of any Company Default Notice from the Lender or the Servicer, the Bank
shall follow the instructions of the Lender and the Servicer as to the holding,
investment and transfer of all collected amounts from time to time on deposit in
the Accounts. In addition, the Company agrees that the Bank may act as the agent
of Lender in exercising, as to any funds or items from time to time on deposit
in any of the Accounts, any rights of setoff provided by applicable law or by
the Credit Agreement or any other right or remedy. The Bank shall be entitled to
rely, without independent investigation, on any statement of the Lender or the
Servicer to the effect that an Event of Default under the Credit
-2-
Agreement has occurred and is continuing or to the effect that any exercise of
set-off or any other right or remedy requested by the Lender or the Servicer is
permitted under applicable law or the Credit Agreement.
(b) Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
at all times after the Bank's receipt of written notice from the Collateral
Agent that an Event of Termination under the Financing has occurred, the Bank
shall no longer follow any instructions given to the Bank by the Servicer or the
Lender, but shall thereafter act only upon the express instructions of the
Collateral Agent. All of the rights and remedies granted to the Lender or the
Servicer hereunder shall immediately upon such notice of an Event of Termination
under the Financing become available to the Collateral Agent at such time. Each
of the Company, the Lender and the Servicer agrees that the Bank shall be
entitled to rely, without independent investigation, on any statement of the
Collateral Agent to the effect that an Event of Termination has occurred and is
continuing or to the effect that any exercise of set-off requested by the
Collateral Agent is permitted under applicable law or the agreements executed
and delivered in connection with the Financing.

the Financing has occurred, such information as the Collateral Agent shall
reasonably request, and the Company hereby consents to such information being
provided to the Lender, the Servicer or the Collateral Agent, as the case may
be. Bank shall simultaneously notify the Company in writing that such

all past due compensation and expenses with respect to the Accounts as provided
in Section 6 and (iii) for any compensation or expenses due from Company under
---------

the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended) and shall inure to their benefit.
The Lender may act as agent for other certain financial institutions which may
hold indebtedness secured by the security interest and lien described in Section
-------
3, and the Lender and other such holders may in the future transfer, assign or
-
sell all or a part of their respective interests. Neither this Agreement nor
any provision hereof maybe changed, amended, modified or waived orally, but only
