THIS COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT DATED AUGUST 21, 2001, IS MADE AND EXECUTED
BETWEEN METROPOLITAN RECORDING, INC ("GRANTOR") AND FOUNDERS` BANK ("LENDER").
GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. For valuable consideration, Grantor grants to
Lender a security interest in the Collateral to secure the Indebtedness and
agrees that Lender shall have the rights stated in this Agreement with respect
to the Collateral, in addition to all other rights which Lender may have by law.
COLLATERAL DESCRIPTION. The word "Collateral" as used in this Agreement means
the following described property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
whether now existing or hereafter arising, and wherever located, in which
Grantor is giving to Lender a security interest for the payment of the
Indebtedness and performance of all other obligations under the Note and this
Agreement:
ALL INVENTORY, CHATTEL PAPER, ACCOUNTS, EQUIPMENT AND GENERAL INTANGIBLES,
TOGETHER WITH THE FOLLOWING PROPERTY: ALL FIXTURES
In addition, the word "Collateral" also includes all the following, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and
wherever located:

replacements and additions to any of the collateral described herein,
whether added now or later,
(B) All products and produce of any of the property described in this
Collateral section.
(C) All accounts, general intangibles, instruments, rents, monies,
payments, and all other rights, arising out of a sale, lease, or other
disposition of any of the property described in this Collateral
section.
(D) All proceeds (including insurance proceeds) from the safe,
destruction, loss, or other disposition of any of the property
described in this Collateral section, and sums due from a third party
who has damaged or destroyed the Collateral or from that party`s
insurer, whether due to judgment, settlement or other process.
(E) All records and data minting to any of the property described in this
Collateral section, whether In the form of a writing, photograph,
microfilm, microfiche, or electronic media, together with all of
Grantor`s right, title, and interest in and to all computer software
required to utilize, create, maintain, and process any such records or
data on electronic media.
Despite any other provision of this Agreement, Lender is not granted, and will
not have, a nonpurchase money security interest in household goods, to the
extent such a security interest would be prohibited by applicable law. In
addition, if because of the type of any Property, Lender is required to give a
notice of the right to cancel under Truth in Lending for the Indebtedness, then
Lender will not have a security interest in such Collateral unless and until
such a notice is given.
Some or all of the Collateral may be located on the following described real
estate:
000 XXXXXXX XXXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXXXX, XX 00000 PARCEL #36050318800 (THE

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Grantor`s accounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Grantor holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Grantor may open in the future.
However, this does not include any XXX or Xxxxx accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Grantor authorizes Lender, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the
Indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender`s option, to
administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender`s
charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.

sale or other disposition. Upon receipt, Grantor shall immediately deliver any
such proceeds to Lender.

marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances

other Related Documents. Grantor may withhold any such payment or may elect to

proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and so long as Lender`s interest in
the Collateral is not jeopardized in Lender`s solo opinion. If the Collateral is

all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all governmental authorities, now
or hereafter in effect, applicable to the ownership, production, disposition, or
use of the Collateral. Grantor may contest in good faith any such law, ordinance

appropriate appeals, so long as Lender`s interest in the Collateral, in Lender`s
opinion, is not jeopardized.

has been, and never will he so long as this Agreement remains a lien on the
Collateral, used in violation of any Environmental Laws or for the generation,
manufacture, storage, transportation, treatment, disposal, release or threatened

Hazardous Substances. Grantor hereby (1) releases and waives any future claims
against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event Grantor becomes liable
for cleanup or other costs under any Environmental Laws, and (2) agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless Lender against any and all claims and losses
resulting from a breach of this provision of this Agreement. This obligation to
indemnify shall survive the payment of the Indebtedness and the satisfaction of
this Agreement.
MAINTENANCE OF CASUALTY INSURANCE. Grantor shall procure and maintain all risks
insurance, including without limitation fire, theft and liability coverage
together with such other insurance as Lender may require with respect to the
Collateral, in form, amounts, coverages arid basis reasonably acceptable to
Lender and issued by a company or companies reasonably acceptable to Lender.
Grantor, upon request of Lender, will deliver to Lender from time to time the
policies or certificates of insurance in form satisfactory to Lender, including
stipulations that coverages will not be cancelled or diminished without at least
fifteen (15) days` prior written notice to Lender and not including any
disclaimer of the insurer`s liability for failure to give such a notice. Each
insurance policy also shall include an endorsement providing that coverage in
favor of Lender will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default
of Grantor or any other person. In connection with all policies covering assets
in which Lender holds or is offered a security interest, Grantor will provide
Lender with such loss payable or other endorsements as Lender may require. If
Grantor at any time fails to obtain or maintain any insurance as required under
this Agreement, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain such insurance
as Lender deems appropriate, including if Lender so chooses "single interest
insurance," which will cover only Lender`s interest in the Collateral.
APPLICATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of any
loss or damage to the Collateral. Lender may make proof of loss if Grantor fails
to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. All proceeds of any insurance
on the Collateral, including accrued proceeds thereon, shall be held by Lender
as part of the Collateral. It Lender consents to repair or replacement of the
damaged or destroyed Collateral, Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of
expenditure, pay or reimburse Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost
of repair or restoration. If Lender does not consent to repair or replacement of
the Collateral, Lender shall retain a sufficient amount of the proceeds to pay
all of the Indebtedness, and shall pay the balance to Grantor. Any proceeds
which have not been disbursed within six (6) months after their receipt and
which Grantor has not committed to the repair or restoration of the Collateral
shall be used to prepay the Indebtedness.
INSURANCE RESERVES. Lender may require Grantor to maintain with Lender reserves
for payment of insurance premiums, which reserves shall be created by monthly
payments from Grantor of a sum estimated by Lender to be sufficient to produce,
at least fifteen (15) days before the premium due date, amounts at least equal
to the insurance premiums to be paid. If fifteen (15) days before payment is
due, the reserve funds are insufficient, Grantor shall upon demand pay any
deficiency to Lender. The reserve funds shall be held by Lender as a general
deposit and shall constitute a non-interest-bearing account which Lender may
satisfy by payment of the insurance premiums required to be paid by Grantor as
they become due. Lender does not hold the reserve funds in trust for Grantor,
and Lender is not the agent of Grantor for payment of the insurance premiums
required to be paid by Grantor. The responsibility for the payment of premiums
shell remain Grantor`s sole responsibility.
COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
Loan No. 0300818580 (Continued) Page 4
INSURANCE REPORTS. Grantor, upon request of Lender, shall furnish to Lender
reports on each existing policy of insurance showing such information as Lender
may reasonably request including the following: (1) the name of the insurer; (2)
the risks insured; (3) the amount of the policy; (4) the property insured; (5)
the then current value on the basis of which insurance has been obtained and the
manner of determining that value; and (6) the expiration date of the policy. In
addition, Grantor shall upon request by Lender (however not more often than
annually) have an independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender determine, as
applicable, the cash value or replacement cost of the Collateral.
GRANTOR`S RIGHT TO POSSESSION AND TO COLLECT ACCOUNTS. Until default and except
as otherwise provided below with respect to accounts, Grantor may have
possession of the tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the
Collateral and may use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this
Agreement or the Related Documents, provided that Grantor`s right to possession
and beneficial use shall not apply to any Collateral where possession of the
Collateral by Lender is required by law to perfect Lender`s security interest in
such Collateral. Until otherwise notified by Lender, Grantor may collect any of
the Collateral consisting of accounts. At any time and even though no Event of
Default exists, Lender may exercise its rights to collect the accounts and to
notify account debtors to make payments directly to Lender for application to
the Indebtedness. If Lender at any time has possession of any Collateral,
whether before or after an Event of Default, Lander shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if
Lender takes such action for that purpose as Grantor shall request or as Lender,
in Lender`s sole discretion, shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, but
failure to honor any request by Grantor shall not of itself be deemed to be a
failure to exercise reasonable care. Lender shall not be required to take any
steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior parties,
nor to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to secure the
Indebtedness.
LENDER`S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would
materially affect Lender`s interest in the Collateral or if Grantor fails to
comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including
but not limited to Grantor`s failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts
Grantor is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related
Documents, Lender Oil Grantor`s behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take
any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to
discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and
other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and paying all
costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the Collateral. All such
expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear
interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by
Lender to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such expenses will become a part
of the Indebtedness and, at Lender`s option, will (A) be payable on demand; (B)
be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable with
any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any
applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be
treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note`s
maturity. The Agreement also will secure payment of these amounts. Such right
shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies to which Lender may be
entitled upon Default.
DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this
Agreement:
PAYMENT DEFAULT. Grantor fails to make any payment when due under the
Indebtedness.
OTHER DEFAULTS. Grantor fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of the
Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant
or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Grantor.
DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Should Grantor or any Grantor default under
any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement,
or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may
materially affect any of Grantor`s property or Grantor`s or any Grantor`s
ability to repay the Indebtedness or perform their respective obligations under
this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.
FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished
to Lender by Grantor or on Grantor`s behalf under this Agreement or the Related
Documents is false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the
time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.
DEFECTIVE COLLATERELIZATION. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any time
and for any reason.
INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Grantor`s existence as a going
business, the insolvency of Grantor, the appointment of a receiver for any part
of Grantor`s property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of
creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or
insolvency laws by or against Grantor.
CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture
proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help, repossession or any
other method, by any creditor of Grantor or by any governmental agency against
any collateral securing the Indebtedness. This includes a garnishment of any of
Grantor`s accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender. However, this Event
of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Grantor as to the
validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or
forfeiture proceeding and if Grantor gives Lender written notice of the creditor
or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for
tile creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in
its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability under, any Guaranty of the
Indebtedness.
ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Grantor`s financial
condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
Indebtedness is impaired.
INSECURITY. Lender in good faith believes itself insecure.
CURE PROVISIONS. If any default, other than a default in payment is curable and
if Grantor has not been given a notice of a breach of the same provision of this
Agreement within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured (and no event
of default will have occurred) if Grantor, after receiving written notice from
Lender demanding cure of such default: (1) cures the default within fifteen (15)
days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately
initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender`s sole discretion to be sufficient
to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and
necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably
practical.
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON DEFAULT. If an Event of Default occurs under this
Agreement, at any time thereafter, Lender shall have all the rights of a secured
party tinder the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code. In addition and without
limitation, Lender may exercise any one or more of the following rights and
remedies:
ACCELERATE INDEBTEDNESS. Lender may declare the entire Indebtedness, including
any prepayment penalty which Grantor would be required to pay, immediately due
and payable, without notice of any kind to Grantor.
ASSEMBLE COLLATERAL. Lender may require Grantor to deliver to Lender all or any
portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and other
documents relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Grantor to assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to be designated by
Lender. Lender also shall have full power to enter upon the property of Grantor
to take possession of and remove the Collateral. If the Collateral contains
other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time of repossession, Grantor
agrees Lender may take such other goods, provided that Lender makes reasonable
efforts to return them to Grantor after repossession.
SELL THE COLLATERAL. Lender shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer, or
otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in Lender`s own name or
that of Grantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction or private
sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a
type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will give Grantor, and
other persons as required by law, reasonable notice of the time and place of any
public sale, or the time after which any private sale or any other disposition
of the Collateral is to be made. However, no notice need be provided to any
person who, after Event of Default occurs, enters into and authenticates an
agreement waiving that person`s right to notification of sale. The requirements
of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least ten 110) days
before the time of the sale or disposition. All expenses relating to the
disposition of the Collateral, including without limitation the expenses of
retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale and selling the Collateral,
shall become a part of the Indebtedness secured by this Agreement and shall be
payable on demand, with interest at the Note rate from date of expenditure until
repaid.
APPOINT RECEIVER. Lender shall have the right to have a receiver appointed to
take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to protect
and preserve the Collateral, to operate the Collateral preceding foreclosure or
sale, and to collect the Rents from the Collateral and apply the proceeds, over
and above the cost of the receivership, against the Indebtedness. The receiver
may serve without bond if permitted by law. Lender`s right to the appointment of
a receiver shall exist whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral
exceeds the Indebtedness by a substantial amount. Employment by Lender shall not
disqualify a person from serving as a receiver.
COLLECT REVENUES, APPLY ACCOUNTS. Lender, either itself or through a receiver,
may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the Collateral.
Lender may at any time in Lender`s discretion transfer any Collateral into
Lender`s own name or that of Lender`s nominee and receive the payments, rents,
income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as security for the
Indebtedness or apply it to payment of the Indebtedness in such order of
preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral consists of
accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments, chattel paper,
choses in action, or similar property, Lender may demand, collect, receipt for,
settle, compromise, adjust, xxx for, foreclose, or realize on the Collateral as
Lender may determine, whether or not Indebtedness or Collateral is then due. For
these purposes, Lender may, on behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive,
open and dispose of mail addressed to Grantor; change any address to which mail
and payments are to be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders,
documents of title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or
storage of any Collateral. To facilitate collection, Lender may notify account
debtors and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Lender.
OBTAIN DEFICIENCY. If Lender chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral,
Lender may obtain a judgment against Grantor for any deficiency remaining on the
Indebtedness due to Lender after application of all amounts received from the
exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement. Grantor shall be liable for a
deficiency even if the transaction described in this subsection is a sale of
accounts or chattel paper.
OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Lender shall have all the rights and remedies of a
secured creditor under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as may be
amended from time to time. In addition, Lender shall have and may exercise any
or all other rights and remedies it may have available at law, in equity, or

singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not
