4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

Grantors represent and warrant that as of the date hereof:

(a) Grantors are the sole owners of each item of the Collateral upon which they purport to grant Liens and security interests hereunder, and have good and valid title thereto free and clear of any and Liens other than the Liens granted in this Security Agreement, the Liens granted to the Trust in respect of the Unsecured Creditors Notes and the Liens granted to Mengnu in respect of the Mengnu Notes.

(b) No effective security agreement, financing statement, equivalent security or Lien instrument or continuation statement covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office.

(c) Except as otherwise agreed to by Mengnu, this Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing first priority and perfected (upon the filing of appropriate financing statements if necessary) Lien on the Assets. Such Lien is enforceable against any and all creditors and purchasers of Grantors (other than purchasers of Collateral in the ordinary course of business). All action by Grantors necessary or desirable to protect and perfect such Lien on each item of the Asstes has been duly taken.

(d) This Security Agreement is effective to create and valid and junior Lien on all Inventory with respect to which a Lien may be perfected by filing pursuant to the Code. Such Lien is subordinated to the Liens granted by the Grantors in connection with the Tranche A Note and Tranche C Note.

(e) The Grantors’ exact legal names and states of creation are as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The Grantors are valid and duly existing corporations.

(f) Until all Obligations have been paid in full, unless the Secured Party shall give its express prior written consent, the Grantors: (i) will preserve their corporate existence and will not, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, sell all or substantially all of their assets, (ii) will not sell, assign, exchange, lend, or otherwise transfer any Collateral or interest therein other than in their ordinary course of business and (iii) except as otherwise agreed to by Mengnu, will not create or cause to exist any security interest in or Lien on any of the Collateral or any interest therein, other than the Liens granted in respect of the Tranche A Note and Tranche C Note, which Liens have senior priority over the Liens granted by this Security Agreement, and other than carriers’, warehousemen’s and similar Liens arising in the ordinary course of business and which secure obligations that are not delinquent.

(g) There are no legal, administrative, or other proceeding pending or threatened against them, other than those disclosed in the Disclosure Statement and Plan, which relate to the Collateral, the grant of a security interest hereunder, or continued corporate existence of the Grantors, nor do the Grantors know of any basis for the assertion of any such claim. The Grantors shall, at their own expense, take any and all actions necessary or desirable to preserve, protect, and defend the security interest of the Secured Party in the Collateral and the perfection and priority thereof against any and all adverse claims, including appearing in and defending all actions and proceedings which purport to affect any of the foregoing all at their own expense.

(h) The Grantors shall pay all Obligations pursuant to the terms and conditions imposed by the Note.

(i) The Grantors will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Collateral in good order and repair and will pay all taxes, assessments, or charges which may be levied or assessed against the same before they become delinquent. In the event of their failure to comply with the foregoing, any amounts expended by the Secured Party as it, in its reasonable discretion, may deem necessary to repair the Collateral or to pay any and all taxes, assessments, and charges to be discharged, shall be considered an Obligation which is secured by this Security Agreement.

(j) The Grantors shall, at their own expense and within commercial reason, keep the Collateral insured against potential damage, with the exception of Collateral located in the Grantors’ showrooms and stores. Such insurance shall not be permitted to lapse without Grantors or the insurer giving to the Secured Party fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice. Should the Grantors fail to procure or provide evidence of said insurance, the Secured Party may procure same, and the cost thereof shall be considered an Obligation.

(k) The Grantors shall keep complete and accurate records of their business, including those pertaining to their inventory and the Collateral. The Collateral is located at the Grantors’ current place(s) of business. No Collateral is now, or shall at any time or times hereafter be stored at any other location without the Secured Party’s prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(l) The Grantors shall notify the Secured Party in writing within five (5) business days of the occurrence of (i) an Event of Default or of the occurrence of an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, or (ii) any event which adversely and materially affects the value of the Collateral, the ability of the Grantors or Secured Party to dispose of the Collateral, or the rights and remedies of Secured Party in relation thereto.

5. COVENANTS. Grantors covenant and agree that from and after the date of this Security Agreement and until all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full:

(a) Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request and at the sole expenses of Grantors, Grantors shall promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and shall take such further actions as the Secured Party may deem reasonably necessary to obtain the full benefit of this Security Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including filing any financing or continuation statements under the Code with respect to the Liens granted hereunder.

Nothing herein shall restrict the Grantors’ ability to encumber the Collateral with Liens junior to those of the Secured Party, provided that the Grantors shall enter into a subordination agreement with the proposed secured party in respect of those junior Liens.

(c) Limitations on Disposition. Grantors will not sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral or attempt to contract to do so except in the ordinary course of business of the Grantors.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Grantors waive all claims, damages and demands against the Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as may arise solely out of gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) The Secured Party may comply with any applicable legal requirements in connection with the sale or other disposition of Collateral and such compliance will not be considered to affect adversely the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of Collateral.

If the Secured Party sells any of the Collateral on credit, the Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser and received by the Secured Party and applied to the satisfaction of Obligations. In the event the Secured Party purchases any of the Collateral being sold, the Secured Party may pay for the Collateral by crediting some or all of the Obligations to the extent permitted by applicable law.
