attorney-in-fact to do all things necessary to carry out or enforce this
Collateral Assignment. The Assignor ratifies and approves to the fullest extent
permitted by law all acts of the Assignee as attorney-in-fact taken in

reasonable opinion of the Assignee, to perfect the Security interests and other
interests granted by the Assignor to the Assignee hereby in the Proprietary
Rights, including, without limitation, filings with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the Copyright Office of the United States. The Assignor

limitation) claims of patent or trademark or Other Intellectual Property Right
infringement, and any claim of unfair competition or antitrust violation, (i)

such indemnification arising from the Assignee's gross negligence or willful
misconduct in the use, assignment and sublicensing of the Patents, Trademarks
and Licenses that are covered by this Collateral Assignment; (ii) which is for
reimbursement for amounts paid by an Indemnified Person on any final,
non-appealable judgment in the Assignor's favor against the Assignee by a court
of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) which is for reimbursement of amounts paid

consent of the Assignor, unless either (x) the Assignor has had a reasonable
opportunity to assume responsibility and has not diligently prosecuted a defense
of such indemnified obligation; or (y) the Assignor has failed to provide
reasonable evidence of its financial ability to satisfy its indemnity
obligations hereunder; (d) the Assignor will not enter into any agreement that
is inconsistent in any material respect with the Assignor's obligations under

Proprietary Rights or any part thereof;
(ii) enter, with or without process of law and without breach of the
peace, any premises where any of the Proprietary Rights or the books and

other applicable law upon default by a debtor. The Assignor recognizes that in
the event the Assignor fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its
obligations or liabilities under this Collateral Assignment, no remedy of law
will provide adequate relief to the Assignee, and the Assignor agrees that the
Assignee shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any
such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.
(c) Any notice required to be given by the Assignee of a sale, lease, other
disposition of any of the Proprietary Rights or any other intended action by the
Assignee, delivered by telex, facsimile transmission or overnight mail, postage

right at any time and from time to time thereafter, in its discretion, without
notice thereof to the Assignor, to take control, in any manner, of any item of

being required to give a new notice of sale.
(f) All cash proceeds received by the Assignee in respect of any sale of,
collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Proprietary
Rights shall be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Assignee as
reimbursement for the costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the
sale of any of the Proprietary Rights) by the Assignee against all or any part
of the Obligations in such order as the Assignee shall elect. Any surplus of
such cash or cash proceeds held by the Assignee and remaining after payment in
full of all the Obligations shall be paid over to the Assignor or to whomsoever
may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus and any deficiency remaining
after application of such cash or cash proceeds to the Obligations shall
continue to be an Obligation of the Assignor, for which the Assignor shall
remain liable.

Collateral Assignment and to the extent permitted under applicable law, the
Assignor waives (i) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment,
dishonor, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise,

Collateral Assignment and the transactions evidenced by this Collateral
Assignment.

respect to the Proprietary Rights, whether established hereby or by any of the
other Credit Documents, or by any other agreements or by law, shall be
cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. The Assignor
acknowledges and agrees that this Collateral Assignment is not intended to limit
or restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Assignee under the Term
Note or any other Credit Document but rather is intended to facilitate the
exercise of such rights and remedies.
6. MISCELLANEOUS
6.1 Waivers. No course of dealing between the Assignor and the Assignee,
nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the
Assignee, any right, power or privilege hereunder, under the Term Note or under

single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or
