(a) Debtor shall pay and perform all of the Deferred Purchase Price Obligations
according to their terms.
(b) All of the existing Collateral is valid and subsisting in full force and
effect, and Debtor owns the sole, full and clear title thereto, and the right
and power to grant the security interest and conditional assignment granted
hereunder. Debtor shall, at Debtor's 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. The Collateral is not
subject to any liens, claims, mortgages, assignments, licenses, security
interests or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever, except: the security
interests granted hereunder and pursuant to the Assignment Agreements, the
security interests permitted under the Assignment Agreements, and the licenses
permitted under Section 4(e) hereof.
(c) Debtor 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 or in the Assignment
Agreements. 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) Debtor shall, at Debtor's 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. Debtor hereby authorizes 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. Debtor further authorizes 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.
(e) As of the date hereof, Debtor does 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 in Exhibit A hereto and has not granted any licenses with respect
thereto other than as set forth in Exhibit B hereto.
(f) 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 C annexed hereto 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
Debtor fails to pay or do as required hereunder or as requested by Secured Party
to preserve, defend, protect, maintain, record or enforce the Deferred Purchase
Price 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, attorneys' fees and legal
expenses. Debtor shall be liable to Secured Party for any such payment, which
payment shall be deemed an advance by Secured Party to Debtor, shall be payable
on demand together with interest at the rate then applicable to the Deferred
Purchase Price Obligations set forth in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement
and shall be part of the Deferred Purchase Price Obligations secured hereby.
(h) Debtor 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, unless Debtor has given Secured Party thirty (30)
days prior written notice of such action. If, after the date hereof, Debtor
shall (i) obtain any registered trademark or tradename, 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 2 hereof shall automatically apply
thereto. Upon the request of Secured Party, 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) Debtor has not abandoned any of the Trademarks and Debtor will not do any
act, nor omit to do any act, whereby the Trademarks may become abandoned,
invalidated, unenforceable, avoided, or avoidable. Debtor shall notify Secured
Party immediately if it 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) Debtor 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 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.
(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. Debtor shall promptly notify Secured Party if 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, Debtor, at Debtor's 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) Debtor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from the use of the
Trademarks and Debtor hereby indemnifies and holds Secured Party harmless from
and against any claim, suit, loss, damage, or expense (including attorneys' fees
and legal expenses) arising out of any alleged defect in any product
manufactured, promoted, or sold by Debtor (or any affiliate or subsidiary
thereof) in connection with any Trademark or out of the manufacture, promotion,
labelling, sale or advertisement of any such product by Debtor (or any affiliate
or subsidiary thereof). The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the
Deferred Purchase Price Obligations, the termination of this Agreement and the
termination or non-renewal of the Assignment Agreements.
(m) Debtor 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 Deferred Purchase Price 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 Deferred Purchase Price Obligations set forth
in the Assignment Agreements and shall be part of the Deferred Purchase Price
Obligations secured hereby.

Assignment Agreements, applicable law or otherwise, Secured Party shall have the
following rights and remedies which may be exercised without notice to, or
consent by, Debtor except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for

subsidiary of Debtor make any use of the Trademarks or any marks similar thereto
for any purpose whatsoever. Secured Party may make use of any Trademarks for the

connection with enforcing any other security interest granted to Secured Party
by Debtor or any subsidiary or affiliate of Debtor or for such other reason as
Secured Party may determine.
(b) 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

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.
(c) Secured Party may assign, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or
any part thereof, either with or without special conditions or stipulations

any proposed disposition shall be deemed reasonable notice thereof and Debtor
waives 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. In any such event, Debtor shall be liable for any deficiency.
(d) In addition to the foregoing, in order to implement the assignment, sale, or
other disposition of any of the Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof, Secured
Party may at any time execute and deliver on behalf of Debtor, pursuant to the
authority granted in the Powers of Attorney described in Section 4(f) hereof,
one or more instruments of assignment of the Trademarks (or any application,
registration, or recording relating thereto), in form suitable for filing,
recording, or registration. Debtor agrees 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 attorneys' fees and legal expenses. Debtor
agrees that Secured Party has no obligation to preserve rights to the Trademarks
against any other parties.
(e) 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, attorneys' fees and
all legal, travel and other expenses which may be incurred by Secured Party.
Thereafter, Secured Party may apply any remaining proceeds to such of the
Deferred Purchase Price Obligations as Secured Party may in its discretion
determine. Debtor shall remain liable to Secured Party for any of the Deferred
Purchase Price Obligations remaining unpaid after the application of such
proceeds, and Debtor shall pay Secured Party on demand any such unpaid amount,
together with interest at the rate then applicable to the Deferred Purchase
Price Obligations set forth in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement.
(f) Debtor shall supply to Secured Party or to Secured Party's designee,
Debtor's knowledge and expertise relating to the manufacture and sale of the
products and services bearing the Trademarks and Debtor's customer lists and
other records relating to the Trademarks and the distribution thereof.
(g) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring Secured Party to
take any such action at any time. All of Secured Party's rights and remedies,
whether provided under this Agreement, the other Assignment Agreements,
applicable law, or otherwise, shall be cumulative and none is exclusive. Such
rights and remedies may be enforced alternatively, successively, or
concurrently.
