designee) to become the registered holder thereof, or cause each issuer of such
securities to agree that it will comply with instructions originated by
Collateral Agent with respect to such securities without further consent by
Debtor. If any Collateral consists of security entitlements, Debtor shall

to this Agreement and agrees that all certificates or instruments
listed on any Pledge Amendment delivered to Collateral Agent shall for all
purposes hereunder constitute Collateral.
4.4 If Debtor shall receive, by virtue of Debtor being or having
been an owner of any Collateral, any (i) stock certificate (including, without
limitation, any certificate representing a stock dividend or distribution in
connection with any increase or reduction of capital, reclassification, merger,

split-off), promissory note or other instrument, (ii) option or right, whether
as an addition to, substitution for, or in exchange for, any Collateral, or
otherwise, (iii) dividends payable in cash (except such dividends permitted to

form received, with any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers
duly executed in blank, to be held by Collateral Agent as Collateral and as
further collateral security for the Obligations.
5. Distribution on Liquidation.
5.1 If any sum is paid as a liquidating distribution on or with
respect to the Collateral, Debtor shall deliver same to the Collateral Agent to
be applied to the Obligations, then due, in accordance with the terms of the
Convertible Notes.
5.2 So long as no Event of Default exists, Debtor shall be
entitled (i) to exercise all voting power pertaining to any of the Collateral,
provided such exercise is not contrary to the interests of the Lenders and does
not impair the Collateral and (ii) may receive and retain any and all dividends,
interest payments or other distributions paid in respect of the Collateral.
5.3. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, all rights of Debtor, upon notice given by Collateral Agent, to
exercise the voting power and receive payments, which it would otherwise be
entitled to pursuant to Section 5.2, shall cease and all such rights shall
thereupon become vested in Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole
right to exercise such voting power and receive such payments.
5.4 All dividends, distributions, interest and other payments
which are received by Debtor contrary to the provisions of Section 5.3 shall be
received in trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from
other funds of Debtor, and shall be forthwith paid over to Collateral Agent as
Collateral in the exact form received with any necessary endorsement and/or
appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by Collateral Agent
as Collateral and as further collateral security for the Obligations.
6. Further Action By Debtor; Covenants and Warranties.
6.1 Collateral Agent at all times shall have a perfected security
interest in the Collateral. Subject to the security interests described herein
and the security interests described on Schedule B hereto, Debtor has and will
continue to have full title to the Collateral free from any liens, leases,
encumbrances, judgments or other claims. Collateral Agent's security interest in
the Collateral constitutes and will continue to constitute a first, prior and
indefeasible security interest in favor of Collateral Agent. Debtor will do all
acts and things, and will execute and file all instruments (including, but not
limited to, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements,
etc.) reasonably requested by Collateral Agent to establish, maintain and
continue the perfected security interest of Collateral Agent in the Collateral,
and
4
will promptly on demand, pay all costs and expenses of filing and
recording, including the costs of any searches reasonably deemed necessary by
Collateral Agent from time to time to establish and determine the validity and
the continuing priority of the security interest of Collateral Agent, and also
pay all other claims and charges that, in the opinion of Collateral Agent,
exercised in good faith, are reasonably likely to materially prejudice, imperil
or otherwise affect the Collateral or Collateral Agent's or Lenders' security
interests therein.
6.2 Other than in the ordinary course of business, and except for
Collateral which is substituted by assets of identical or greater value or which
has become obsolete or is of inconsequential in value, Debtor will not sell,
transfer, assign or pledge those items of Collateral (or allow any such items to
be sold, transferred, assigned or pledged), without the prior written consent of
Collateral Agent other than a transfer of the Collateral to a wholly-owned
subsidiary on prior notice to Collateral Agent, and provided the Collateral
remains subject to the security interest herein described. Although Proceeds of
Collateral are covered by this Agreement, this shall not be construed to mean
that Collateral Agent consents to any sale of the Collateral, except as provided
herein. Sales of Collateral in the ordinary course of business shall be free of
the security interest of Lenders and Collateral Agent and Lenders and Collateral
Agent shall promptly execute such documents (including without limitation
releases and termination statements) as may be required by Debtor to evidence or
effectuate the same.
6.3 Debtor will, at all reasonable times and upon reasonable
notice, allow Collateral Agent or its representatives free and complete access
to the Collateral and all of Debtor's records which in any way relate to the
Collateral, for such inspection and examination as Collateral Agent reasonably
deems necessary.
6.4 Debtor, at its sole cost and expense, will protect and defend
this Security Agreement, all of the rights of Collateral Agent and Lenders
hereunder, and the Collateral against the claims and demands of all other
persons.
6.5 Debtor will promptly notify Collateral Agent of any levy,
distraint or other seizure by legal process or otherwise of any part of the
Collateral, and of any threatened or filed claims or proceedings that are
reasonably likely to affect or impair any of the rights of Collateral Agent
under this Security Agreement in any material respect.
6.6 Debtor, at its own expense, will obtain and maintain in force
insurance policies covering losses or damage to those items of Collateral which
constitute physical personal property. The insurance policies to be obtained by
Debtor shall be in form and amounts reasonably acceptable to Collateral Agent.
Debtor shall make the Collateral Agent first a loss payee thereon to the extent
of its interest in the Collateral. Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably (until
the Obligations are paid in full) appointed Debtor' attorney-in-fact to endorse
any check or draft that may be payable to Debtor so that Collateral Agent may
collect the proceeds payable for any loss under such insurance. The proceeds of
such insurance (subject to the rights of senior secured parties), less any costs
and expenses incurred or paid by Collateral Agent in the collection thereof,
shall be applied either toward the cost of the repair or replacement of the
items damaged or destroyed, or on account of any sums secured hereby, whether or
not then due or payable.
6.7 Collateral Agent may, at its option, and without any
obligation to do so, pay, perform and discharge any and all amounts, costs,
expenses and liabilities herein agreed to be paid or performed by Debtor. Upon
Debtor's failure to do so, all amounts expended by Collateral Agent in so doing
shall become part of the Obligations secured hereby, and shall be immediately
due and payable by Debtor to Collateral Agent upon demand and shall bear
interest at the lesser of 15% per annum or the highest legal amount from the
dates of such expenditures until paid.
5
6.8 Upon the request of Collateral Agent, Debtor will furnish to
Collateral Agent within five (5) business days thereafter, or to any proposed
assignee of this Security Agreement, a written statement in form reasonably
satisfactory to Collateral Agent, duly acknowledged, certifying the amount of
the principal and interest and any other sum then owing under the Obligations,
whether to its knowledge any claims, offsets or defenses exist against the
Obligations or against this Security Agreement, or any of the terms and
provisions of any other agreement of Debtor securing the Obligations. In
connection with any assignment by Collateral Agent of this Security Agreement,
Debtor hereby agrees to cause the insurance policies required hereby to be
carried by Debtor, if any, to be endorsed in form satisfactory to Collateral
Agent or to such assignee, with loss payable clauses in favor of such assignee,
and to cause such endorsements to be delivered to Collateral Agent within ten
(10) calendar days after request therefor by Collateral Agent.
6.9 Debtor will, at its own expense, make, execute, endorse,
acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such
vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing
statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and
other reasonable assurances or instruments and take further steps relating to
the Collateral and other property or rights covered by the security interest
hereby granted, as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require to perfect its
security interest hereunder.
6.10 Debtor represents and warrants that it is the true and lawful
exclusive owner of the Collateral, free and clear of any liens and encumbrances.
6.11 Debtor hereby agrees not to divest itself of any right under
the Collateral except as permitted herein absent prior written approval of the
Collateral Agent, except to a subsidiary organized and located in the United
States on prior notice to Collateral Agent provided the Collateral remains
subject to the security interest herein described.
6.12 Debtor shall cause each Subsidiary of Debtor not in existence
on the date hereof to execute and deliver to Collateral Agent promptly and in
any event within 10 days after the formation, acquisition or change in status
thereof (A) a guaranty guaranteeing the Obligations and (B) a security and
pledge agreement substantially in the form of this Agreement together with (x)
certificates evidencing all of the capital stock of any entity owned by such
Subsidiary, (y) undated stock powers executed in blank with signature
guaranteed, and (z) such opinion of counsel and such approving certificate of
such Subsidiary as Collateral Agent may reasonably request in respect of
complying with any legend on any such certificate or any other matter relating
to such shares and (E) such other agreements, instruments, approvals, legal
opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Collateral Agent in order to
create, perfect, establish the first priority of or otherwise protect any lien
purported to be covered by any such pledge and security agreement or otherwise
to effect the intent that all property and assets of such Subsidiary shall
become Collateral for the Obligations. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Subsidiary" means, with respect to any entity at any date, any corporation,
limited or general partnership, limited liability company, trust, estate,
association, joint venture or other business entity) of which more than 50% of
(A) the outstanding capital stock having (in the absence of contingencies)
ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other
managing body of such entity, (B) in the case of a partnership or limited
liability company, the interest in the capital or profits of such partnership or
limited liability company or (C) in the case of a trust, estate, association,
joint venture or other entity, the beneficial interest in such trust, estate,
association or other entity business is, at the time of determination, owned or
controlled directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, by such
entity.

7. Power of Attorney.
After the occurrence and during the uncured continuation of an Event of
Default as defined in Section 9 below, Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Collateral Agent as the true and lawful attorney of Debtor, with
full power of substitution, in the place and stead of Debtor and in the name of
Debtor or otherwise, at any time or times, in the discretion of the Collateral
Agent, to take any action and to execute any instrument or document which the
Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of
this Agreement. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable until the Obligations are satisfied.
8. Performance By The Collateral Agent.
If Debtor fails to perform any material covenant, agreement, duty or
obligation of Debtor under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent may, after any
applicable cure period, at any time or times in its discretion, take action to
effect performance of such obligation. All reasonable expenses of the Collateral
Agent incurred in connection with the foregoing authorization shall be payable
by Debtor as provided in Paragraph 12.1 hereof. No discretionary right, remedy
or power granted to the Collateral Agent under any part of this Agreement shall
be deemed to impose any obligation whatsoever on the Collateral Agent with
respect thereto, such rights, remedies and powers being solely for the
protection of the Collateral Agent.
9. Event of Default.
An event of default ("Event of Default") shall be deemed to have
occurred hereunder upon the occurrence of any event of default as defined and
described in this Agreement, in the Notes, Subscription Agreement, and any other
agreement to which Debtor and a Lender are parties. Upon and after any Event of
Default, after the applicable cure period, if any, any or all of the Obligations
shall become immediately due and payable at the option of the Collateral Agent,
for the benefit of the Lenders, and the Collateral Agent may dispose of
Collateral as provided below. A default by Debtor of any of its material
obligations pursuant to this Agreement shall be an Event of Default hereunder
and an event of default as defined in the Notes, and Subscription Agreement.
10. Disposition of Collateral.
Upon and after any Event of Default which is then continuing,
10.1 The Collateral Agent may exercise its rights with respect to
each and every component of the Collateral, without regard to the existence of
any other security or source of payment for the Obligations. In addition to
other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the
Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies of a lender on
default under the Uniform Commercial Code then in effect in the State of New
York.
10.2 In the event of any sale or other disposition of Collateral is
to occur, the Collateral Agent shall provide Debtor with at least five business
(5) days prior written notice (which Debtor agrees is reasonable notice within
the meaning of Section 9.612(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code) of the time and
place of any sale of Collateral which Debtor hereby agrees may be by private
sale. The rights granted in this Section are in addition to any and all rights
available to Collateral Agent under the Uniform Commercial Code.
10.3 The Collateral Agent is authorized, at any such sale, if the
Collateral Agent deems it advisable to do so, in order to comply with any
applicable securities laws, to restrict the prospective
8
bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree, among
other things, that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for
investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, or
otherwise to restrict such sale in such other manner as the Collateral Agent
deems advisable to ensure such compliance. Sales made subject to such
restrictions shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable
manner.
10.4 All proceeds received by the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the Lenders in respect of any sale, collection or other enforcement or
disposition of Collateral, shall be applied (after deduction of any amounts
payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Paragraph 12.1 hereof) against the
Obligations pro rata among the Lenders in proportion to their interests in the
Obligations. Upon payment in full of all Obligations, Debtor shall be entitled
to the return of all Collateral, including cash, which has not been used or
applied toward the payment of Obligations or used or applied to any and all
costs or expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with the
liquidation of the Collateral (unless another person is legally entitled
thereto). Any assignment of Collateral by the Collateral Agent to Debtor shall
be without representation or warranty of any nature whatsoever and wholly
without recourse. To the extent allowed by law, each Lender may purchase the
Collateral and pay for such purchase by offsetting up to such Lender's pro rata
portion of the purchase price with sums owed to such Lender by Debtor arising
under the Obligations or any other source.
11. Waiver of Automatic Stay. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that should a
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law be commenced by or against
Debtor, or if any of the Collateral should become the subject of any bankruptcy
or insolvency proceeding, then the Collateral Agent should be entitled to, among
other relief to which the Collateral Agent or Lenders may be entitled under the
Note, Subscription Agreement and any other agreement to which the Debtor,
Lenders or Collateral Agent are parties, (collectively "Loan Documents") and/or
applicable law, an order from the court granting immediate relief from the
automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 362 to permit the Collateral Agent
to exercise all of its rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents and/or
applicable law. Debtor EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE BENEFIT OF THE AUTOMATIC STAY
IMPOSED BY 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362. FURTHERMORE, Debtor EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND
AGREES THAT NEITHER 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362 NOR ANY OTHER SECTION OF THE
BANKRUPTCY CODE OR OTHER STATUTE OR RULE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, 11
U.S.C. SECTION 105) SHALL STAY, INTERDICT, CONDITION, REDUCE OR INHIBIT IN ANY
WAY THE ABILITY OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT TO ENFORCE ANY OF ITS RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND/OR APPLICABLE LAW. Debtor hereby consents
to any motion for relief from stay which may be filed by the Collateral Agent in
any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding initiated by or against Debtor, and
further agrees not to file any opposition to any motion for relief from stay
filed by the Collateral Agent. Debtor represents, acknowledges and agrees that
this provision is a specific and material aspect of this Agreement, and that the
Collateral Agent would not agree to the terms of this Agreement if this waiver
were not a part of this Agreement. Debtor further represents, acknowledges and
agrees that this waiver is knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily made, that
neither the Collateral Agent nor any person acting on behalf of the Collateral
Agent has made any representations to induce this waiver, that Debtor has been
represented (or has had the opportunity to be represented) in the signing of
this Agreement and in the making of this waiver by independent legal counsel
selected by Debtor and that Debtor has had the opportunity to discuss this
waiver with counsel.
12. Miscellaneous.
12.1 Expenses. Debtor shall pay to the Collateral Agent, on demand, the
amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees, legal expenses and brokers' fees, which the Collateral Agent
may incur in connection with (a) sale, collection or other enforcement or
disposition
9
of Collateral; (b) exercise or enforcement of any the rights, remedies
or powers of the Collateral Agent hereunder or with respect to any or all of the
Obligations upon breach or threatened breach; or (c) failure by Debtor to
perform and observe any agreements of Debtor contained herein which are
performed by the Collateral Agent.
12.2 Waivers, Amendment and Remedies. No course of dealing by the
Collateral Agent and no failure by the Collateral Agent to exercise, or delay by
the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise thereof shall
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, remedy or power of the Collateral Agent. No amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent to any departure by
Debtor therefrom, shall, in any event, be effective unless contained in a
writing signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given. The rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent, not only
hereunder, but also under any instruments and agreements evidencing or securing
the Obligations and under applicable law are cumulative, and may be exercised by
the Collateral Agent from time to time in such order as the Collateral Agent may
elect.
