security for the Indebtedness. Prior to depositing payments on the
Accounts into the Special Account, the Owner agrees that it will not

deposit in the Special Account or as a direct payment on any of the
Indebtedness;

a) The Owner shall maintain complete and accurate books of account and
records, and its principal books of account and records, including all
records concerning Accounts and contract rights, shall be kept and
maintained at the place(s) specified above. The Owner shall not move such
books of account and records without giving the Bank at least 30 days prior

consistently applied. It is specifically agreed that the Bank shall have
and the Owner hereby grants to the Bank a security interest in all books
of account and records of the Owner and shall have access to them at any

good standing and shall not consolidate or merge with or acquire the stock
of any other corporation without the prior written consent of the Bank. If
the Owner is a corporation, the Owner shall, at the request of the Bank,

permits in each jurisdiction where the Owner does business. The Owner
shall not discontinue business, liquidate, sell, transfer, assign or
otherwise dispose of any of its assets, except with the prior written
permission of the Bank, provided, however, that it may sell in the
ordinary course of business and for a full consideration in money or
money's worth, any product, merchandise or service produced or marketed
by it. The Bank's security interest shall attach to all proceeds of all
sales or dispositions of the Collateral;
d) The Owner shall maintain all of the Collateral in good condition and
repair. The Bank shall have the right to inspect the Collateral at any
reasonable time and shall have the right to obtain such appraisals,
reappraisals, appraisal updates or environmental inspections as the
Bank, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary from time to time.
e) The Owner shall at all times keep insurable Collateral insured against
any and all risks, including, without limitation, fire, and such other
insurance as may be required by the Bank from time to time; and in such
amounts as may be satisfactory to the Bank. The Bank shall be named as
Loss Payee on any such insurance policies. Insurance may be purchased
from an insurer of the Owner's choice, except as otherwise required by
law. The Owner shall pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and charges
of every kind prior to the date when such taxes, assessments or charges
shall become delinquent and provide proof of such payments to the Bank,
upon request. However, nothing contained in this Security Agreement shall
require the Owner to pay any such taxes, assessments and charges so long
as it shall contest its validity in good faith and shall post any bond or
security required by the Bank against the payment. Upon the failure of the
Owner to pay such required amounts, the Bank, at its option, and at the
Owner's expense, may obtain such insurance or pay such taxes, assessments
or charges with the costs or premiums becoming part of the indebtedness at

insurance obtained by the Bank, at its option, may be single or dual
interest, protecting its rights, rights of the Owner or joint rights. Any
insurance obtained by the Bank may provide, at its option, that such
insurance will pay the lesser of the unpaid balance of the indebtedness
or the repair or replacement value of the Collateral. The Owner authorizes
the Bank to give effect to any of these options without prior notice to
Owner or further consent from Owner. No matter which insurance coverage
or repayment options the Bank chooses, the collateral will secure payment
of these amounts. The Bank may use the proceeds of any insurance obtained
by Owner or by the Bank to repair or replace the collateral or, if the
Bank elects to do so, to repay part or all of the indebtedness, and the
Borrowers will still be responsible to repay any remaining unpaid balance
of the indebtedness. Owner assigns to the Bank all amounts payable
under the insurance, including unearned premiums, directing the insurer to
make payment to the Bank, and Owner appoints us attorney-in-fact to
endorse any draft.
f) The Owner will not pledge or grant any security interest in any of the
Collateral to anyone except the Bank, or permit any lien or encumbrance to
attach to any of the Collateral, or any levy to be made on the Collateral,
or any financing statement (except financing statements in favor of the
Bank) to be on file against the Collateral.
g) The Owner agrees that it will not permit any return of merchandise, the
sale of which gave rise to any of the Accounts, except in the usual and
regular course of business.

payment of the Indebtedness under any other agreement, upon the occurrence of
any of the following events of default, the Bank, at its option, may declare
any or all of the Indebtedness immediately due and payable and may exercise
any and all of the rights and remedies of default of a secured party under
the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law and all rights provided
herein, all of which rights and remedies shall, to the full extent permitted
by law, be cumulative;

or against any of them; or
f) The entry of a judgment against the Owner or any Party or the issuance
or service of any attachment, levy or garnishment against the Owner or
any Party or the property of any of them or the repossession or seizure
of property of the Owner or any Party;

h) A determination by the Bank that a material adverse change in the
financial condition of the Owner or any Party has occurred since the

available to the Bank at a place to be designated by the Bank which is
reasonably convenient to the Bank and the Owner. The Bank may take possession
of the Collateral without a court order. The Owner shall pay to the Bank on
demand all legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees (not to exceed 15%
