2. OBLIGATIONS SECURED

The security interest, lien and other interests granted to Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement shall secure the prompt performance, observance and payment in full of any and all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of every kind, nature and description owing by Debtors to Noteholders and Secured Party and/or their affiliates, including principal, interest, charges, fees, costs and expenses, however evidenced, whether as principal, surety, endorser, guarantor or otherwise, arising under this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising, whether arising before, during or after the initial or any renewal term of the Notes or after the commencement of any case with respect to Debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar statute (including, without limitation, the payment of interest and other amounts which would accrue and become due but for the commencement of such case), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, joint or several, due or not due, primary or secondary, liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, and however acquired by Noteholders or Secured Party (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to herein as the "Obligations").

3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

Each Debtor hereby represents, warrants and covenants with and to Secured Party the following (all of such representations, warranties and covenants being continuing so long as any of the Obligations are outstanding):

(a) Such Debtor shall pay and perform all of the Obligations according to their terms.

(b) All of the existing Collateral is valid and subsisting in full force and effect, and, except as otherwise described in Schedule C hereto, such Debtor owns the sole, full and clear title thereto, and the right and power to grant the security interest and conditional assignment granted hereunder. Debtors shall, at Debtors' joint and several expense, perform all acts and execute all documents necessary to maintain the existence of the Collateral consisting of registered Trademarks as registered trademarks and to maintain the existence of all of the Collateral as valid and subsisting, including, without limitation, the filing of any renewal affidavits and applications, except as expressly otherwise permitted under Section 3(i). The Collateral is not subject to any liens, claims, mortgages, assignments, licenses, security interests or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever, except: (i) the security interests granted hereunder and pursuant to the Notes, (ii) the security interests permitted under the Notes, and (iii) the licenses permitted under Section 3(e) below.

(c) Debtors shall not assign, sell, mortgage, lease, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, grant a security interest in or lien upon, encumber, grant an exclusive or non-exclusive license relating to

the Collateral, or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, in each case without the prior written consent of Secured Party, except as otherwise permitted herein (including under Section 3(i)) or in the Notes. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a consent by Secured Party to any such action, except as such action is expressly permitted hereunder.

(d) Debtors shall, at Debtors' joint and several expense, promptly perform all acts and execute all documents requested at any time by Secured Party to evidence, perfect, maintain, record or enforce the security interest in and conditional assignment of the Collateral granted hereunder or to otherwise further the provisions of this Agreement. Debtors hereby authorize Secured Party to execute and file one or more financing statements (or similar documents) with respect to the Collateral, signed only by Secured Party or as otherwise determined by Secured Party. Debtors further authorize Secured Party to have this Agreement or any other similar security agreement filed with the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks or any other appropriate federal, state or government office. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, it shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Debtors to execute all documents and to make any filings and perform any other actions necessary to evidence, perfect, maintain, record and enforce the security interest in the Collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) As of the date hereof, Debtors do not have any Trademarks registered, or subject to pending applications, in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any similar office or agency in the United States, any State thereof, any political subdivision thereof or in any other country, other than those described below in Schedule A hereto and have not granted any licenses with respect thereto other than as set forth in Schedule B hereto.

(f) Each Debtor shall, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, execute and deliver to Secured Party five (5) originals of a Special Power of Attorney in the form of Exhibit I annexed hereto, with appropriate insertions, for the implementation of the assignment, sale or other disposition of the Collateral pursuant to Secured Party's exercise of the rights and remedies granted to Secured Party hereunder.

(g) Secured Party may, in its discretion, pay any amount or do any act which any Debtor fails to pay or do as required hereunder or as requested by Secured Party to preserve, defend, protect, maintain, record or enforce the Obligations, the Collateral, or the security interest and conditional assignment granted hereunder, including, but not limited to, all filing or recording fees, court costs, collection charges, reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses. Debtors shall be liable to Secured Party jointly and severally for any such payment, which payment shall be deemed an advance by Secured Party to Debtors, shall be payable on demand together with interest at the rate then applicable to the Obligations set forth in the Notes and shall be part of the Obligations secured hereby.

(h) Debtors shall not file any application for the registration of a Trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any similar office or agency in the United States or in any other country, unless Debtor has given Secured Party twenty (20) days prior written notice of such action. If, after the date hereof, Debtor shall (i) obtain any registered trademark or trade name, or apply for any such registration in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or in any similar office or agency in the United States, any State thereof, any political subdivision thereof or in any other country, or (ii) become the owner of any trademark registrations or applications for trademark registration used in the United States or any State thereof, political subdivision thereof or in any other country, the provisions of Section 1 hereof shall automatically apply thereto. Upon the request of Secured Party, the appropriate Debtor shall promptly execute and deliver to Secured Party any and all assignments, agreements, instruments, documents and such other papers as may be requested by Secured Party to evidence the security interest in and conditional assignment of such Trademark in favor of Secured Party.

(i) Debtors have not abandoned any of the Trademarks and Debtors will not do any act, nor omit to do any act, whereby the Trademarks may become abandoned, invalidated, unenforceable, avoided, or avoidable. Debtors shall notify Secured Party immediately if any Debtor knows or has reason to know of any reason why any application, registration, or recording with respect to the Trademarks may become abandoned, canceled, invalidated, avoided, or avoidable, except that, upon advance written notice to Secured Party, Debtors may abandon any Trademark so long as (i) such Trademark is no longer used or useful in the business of any Debtor or any affiliate, and is not affixed to or used in connection with the manufacture, sale, distribution or use of any inventory or other assets of any Debtor, (ii) such Trademark shall not have been used by any Debtor for a period of three (3) months or more from the date of such written notice to Secured Party and (iii) any such Trademark shall not otherwise be material to the business of any Debtor or any of its affiliates in any respect and shall have little or no value. Debtors shall notify Secured Party immediately if any Debtor knows or has reason to know of any reason why any application, registration, or recording with respect to the Trademarks may become abandoned, canceled, invalidated, avoided, or avoidable.

(j) Debtors shall render any assistance, as Secured Party shall determine is necessary, to Secured Party in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, any federal or state court, or any similar office or agency in the United States, any State thereof, any political subdivision thereof or in any other country, to maintain such application and registration of the Trademarks as a Debtor's exclusive property and to protect Secured Party's interest therein, including, without limitation, filing of renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference, and cancellation proceedings, except to the extent that Debtors have acted in accordance with Section 3(i).

(k) No material infringement or unauthorized use presently is being made of any of the Trademarks that would adversely affect in any material respect the fair market value of the Collateral or the benefits of this Agreement granted to Secured Party, including, without limitation, the validity, priority or perfection of the security interest granted herein or the remedies of Secured Party hereunder. Debtors shall promptly notify Secured Party if any Debtor (or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof) learns of any use by any person of any term or design which infringes on any Trademark or is likely to cause confusion with any Trademark. If requested by Secured Party, Debtors (or the applicable individual Debtor, as appropriate), at Debtors' joint and several expense, shall join with Secured Party in such action as Secured Party, in Secured Party's discretion, may deem advisable for the protection of Secured Party's interest in and to the Trademarks.

(l) Debtors assume all responsibility and liability arising from the use of the Trademarks and Debtors, jointly and severally, hereby indemnify and hold Secured Party harmless from and against any claim, suit, loss, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses) arising out of any alleged defect in any product manufactured, promoted, or sold by any Debtor (or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof) in connection with any Trademark or out of the manufacture, promotion, labeling, sale or advertisement of any such product by any Debtor (or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof). The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations, the termination of this Agreement and the termination or non-renewal of the Notes.

(m) Debtors shall promptly pay Secured Party for any and all expenditures made by Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or for the defense, protection or enforcement of the Obligations, the Collateral, or the security interests and conditional assignment granted hereunder, including, but not limited to, all filing or recording fees, court costs, collection charges, travel expenses, and attorneys' fees and legal expenses. Such expenditures shall be payable on demand, together with interest at the rate then applicable to the Obligations set forth in the Notes and shall be part of the Obligations secured hereby.

4. EVENTS OF DEFAULT

The occurrence or existence of any Event of Default under and as defined in the Notes is referred to herein individually as an "Event of Default," and collectively as "Events of Default."

At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, in addition to all other rights and remedies of Secured Party, whether provided under this Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, Secured Party shall have the following rights and remedies which may be exercised without notice to, or consent by, Debtors except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder:

(c) Secured Party may grant such license or licenses relating to the Collateral for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as Secured Party shall in its discretion deem appropriate. Such license or licenses may be general, special or otherwise, and may be granted on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis throughout all or any part of the United States of America, its territories and possessions, and all foreign countries.

(d) Secured Party may assign, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof, either with or without special conditions or stipulations, except that if notice to any Debtor of intended disposition of Collateral is required by law, the giving of ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to either Parent or such Debtor of any proposed disposition shall be deemed reasonable notice thereof and Debtors waive any other notice with respect thereto. Secured Party shall have the power to buy the Collateral or any part thereof, and Secured Party shall also have the power to execute assurances and perform all other acts which Secured Party may, in its discretion, deem appropriate or proper to complete such assignment, sale, or disposition.

Debtors agree to pay Secured Party on demand all costs incurred in any such transfer of the Collateral, including, but not limited to, any taxes, fees, and reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses.

(f) Secured Party may first apply the proceeds actually received from any such license, assignment, sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral to the costs and expenses thereof, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and all legal, travel and other expenses actually incurred by Secured Party. Thereafter, Secured Party may apply any remaining proceeds to the Obligations in the order and manner provided in the Notes Debtors shall remain liable to

Secured Party for any of the Obligations remaining unpaid after the application of such proceeds, and Debtors shall pay Secured Party on demand any such unpaid amount, together with interest at the rate then applicable to the Obligations set forth in the Notes.

(g) Each Debtor shall supply to Secured Party or to Secured Party's designee such Debtor's knowledge and expertise relating to the manufacture and sale of the products and services bearing the Trademarks and such Debtor's customer lists and other records relating to the Trademarks and the distribution thereof.

All of Secured Party's rights and remedies, whether provided under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, applicable law, or otherwise, shall be cumulative and none is exclusive. Such rights and remedies may be enforced alternatively, successively, or concurrently.

(b) Debtors and Secured Party irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York for New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and waive any objection based on venue or forum non conveniens with respect to any action instituted therein arising under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in any way connected or related or incidental to the dealings of Debtor and Secured Party in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions related hereto or thereto, in each case whether now existing or thereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, and agree that any dispute with respect to any such matters shall be heard only in the courts described above (except that Secured Party shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against any Debtor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Secured Party deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against a Debtor or its property).

(c) Each Debtor hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to its address set forth herein and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Secured Party's option, by service upon such Debtor in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts. Within thirty (30) days after such service, such Debtor shall appear in answer to such process, failing which such Debtor shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Secured Party against such Debtor for the amount of the claim and other relief requested.

(d) EACH DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (I) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF ANY DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

(e) Secured Party shall not have any liability to Debtors (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by Debtors or any individual Debtor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Secured Party that the losses were the result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. In any such litigation, Secured Party shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(e) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof shall be amended, modified, waived or discharged orally or by course of conduct, but only by a written agreement signed by an authorized officer of Secured Party.

Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Secured Party of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver
