OBLIGATIONS ARISING WITH RESPECT TO SETTLEMENT OR RESTRUCTURING NEGOTIATIONS
(ALL OF THE FOREGOING SHALL BE REFERRED TO HEREINAFTER AS THE "RELEASED

NOT TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE CONVEYED, OR PURPORTED TO TRANSFER,
ASSIGN OR OTHERWISE CONVEY, ANY RIGHT, TITLE OR INTEREST OF THE BORROWERS IN ANY
RELEASED MATTER TO ANY OTHER PERSON AND THAT THE FOREGOING CONSTITUTES A FULL
AND COMPLETE RELEASE OF ALL RELEASED MATTERS. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION

form and substance to Bank and its counsel:
i. this Agreement executed by each of the

11
ii. the Ad Art Loan Agreement executed by Ad Art
and Xxxxxxxx, along with all of the exhibits

consent to such transactions contemplated by this
Agreement that require, as the Bank in its sole and
absolute discretion determines, the prior written
consent of the Participant under the Participation

d. all representations and warranties of the Borrowers

addition to those of the Loan Agreements, any guaranty, pledge or security
agreement, note or other evidence of liability held by the Bank, all of which
are incorporated herein and shall be construed as complementary to each other.
Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Bank from enforcing any or all other
notes, guaranties, pledges or security agreements in accordance with their
respective terms.
b. FURTHER ASSURANCE. From time to time, the Borrowers will
execute and deliver to the Bank such additional documents and will provide such
additional information as the Bank may reasonably require to carry out the terms

12
c. ENFORCEMENT AND WAIVER BY THE BANK. The Bank shall have the
right at all times to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan
Agreements, and the other Loan Documents in strict accordance with the terms
hereof and thereof, notwithstanding any conduct or custom on the part of the
Bank in refraining from so doing at any time or times. The failure of the Bank
at any time or times to enforce its rights under such provisions, strictly in
accordance with the same, shall not be construed as having created a custom in
any way or manner contrary to specific provisions of this Agreement or as having
in any way or manner modified or waived the same. All rights and remedies of the
Bank are cumulative and concurrent and the exercise of one right or remedy shall
not be deemed a waiver or release of any other right or remedy.
d. NOTICES. Any notices or consents required or permitted by
this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered if delivered in
person or if sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested,

e. PARTICIPATION. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, the Borrower understands that the Bank has entered into a
participation agreement with the Participant and may enter into other
participation agreements with other participants whereby
14
the Bank will allocate certain percentages of its commitment to them. The
Borrower acknowledges that, for the convenience of all parties, this Agreement
is being entered into with the Bank only and that its obligations under this
Agreement are undertaken for the benefit of, and as an inducement to, the
Participant and to any other participant as well as the Bank, and each of the
other Borrowers hereby grants to the Participant and each other participant, to
the extent of its participation in the Obligations, the right to set off deposit
accounts maintained by the respective Borrowers with such participant. Each of
the Borrowers authorizes the Bank to disclose financial and other information
regarding the Borrower to the Participant and other potential participants.
f. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement is entered into and
performable in Jefferson County, Alabama, and the substantive Laws of the United
States and the State of Alabama, without giving effect to its principles of
conflict of laws, shall govern the construction of this Agreement and the
documents executed and delivered pursuant hereto, and the rights and remedies of
the parties hereto and thereto, except to the extent that the location of any
Collateral in a state or jurisdiction other than Alabama requires that the
perfection of the Bank's security interest hereunder, and the enforcement of
certain of the Bank's remedies with respect to the Collateral, be governed by
the laws of such other state or jurisdiction.
g. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS.
i. EACH OF THE BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY:
(A) SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY
LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND
ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT
THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL
JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF
ALABAMA, THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF
ALABAMA, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY
THEREOF;
(B) CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS, AND WAIVES
ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN
15
INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD
OR CLAIM THE SAME;
(C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY
MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR
CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR
FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE
COMPANY AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION
13(D) OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE
BANK SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED PURSUANT
THERETO; AND
(D) AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE
RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT
THE RIGHT TO XXX IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.
ii. EACH OF THE BORROWERS AND THE BANK HEREBY:
(A) IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE THE
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY TYPE AS TO
ANY MATTER ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
OUT OF OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT,
THE LOAN AGREEMENTS, THE NOTES, ANY OF THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT
EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR
THEREWITH; AND
(B) AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF
THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN
EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND
BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES
IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY, AND THAT
ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY OF ANY KIND
WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM SHALL INSTEAD BE
TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPE-
16
TENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT
A JURY.
h. BINDING EFFECT, ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the respective successors and
permitted assigns of the parties hereto. The Borrowers have no right to assign
any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent
of the Bank.
i. ENTIRE AGREEMENT, AMENDMENTS. This Agreement, including the
Exhibits hereto, all of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference, and
the documents executed and delivered pursuant hereto, constitute the entire
agreement between the parties, and may be amended only by a writing signed on
behalf of each party.
j. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement, the Loan
Agreements, the Notes, or the Loan Documents shall be held invalid under any
applicable Laws, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this
Agreement or such other instrument or agreement that can be given effect without
the invalid provision, and, to this end, the provisions hereof are severable.
k. HEADINGS. The paragraph and subparagraph headings hereof
are inserted for convenience of reference only, and shall not alter, define, or
be used in construing the text of such paragraphs or subparagraphs.
l. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of
which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
m. SEAL. This Agreement is intended to take effect as an
instrument under seal.
n. INTERPRETATION. This Agreement, the Loan Agreements, and
the Loan Documents shall be construed liberally to effectuate the rights and
remedies of the parties hereto as expressed herein, and neither such principle
of interpretation nor the express language of this Agreement, the Loan
Agreements, and the Loan Documents shall be impaired or adversely affected by
any instruments and documents executed in connection herewith. The deletion of
any provision from a prior draft of this Agreement, the Loan Agreements, or any
of the Loan Documents shall not and shall not be deemed to constitute (and shall
not be used as) evidence of any fact or interpretation, since the parties may
disagree as to the meaning and effect of such a deletion, as no prior draft of
this Agreement, the Loan Agreements, or the Loan Documents shall be admissible
as evidence of the meaning of this Agreement, the Loan Agreements, or any of the
Loan Documents. Should any provision of this Agreement, the Loan Agreements, or
any of the other Loan Documents require judicial interpretation, it is agreed
that a court interpreting or construing same shall not apply a presumption that
the terms hereof shall be more strictly
17
construed against one party by reason of the rule of construction that a
document is to be construed more strictly against the party who itself or
through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties hereto
have participated in the preparation of this Agreement, the Loan Agreements, and
the Loan Documents.
o. NO FURTHER COMMITMENT. Each of the Borrowers expressly
acknowledges that (i) the Bank has not made and is not making any commitment
for, and that there is no understanding, explicit or implicit, relating to, or
affecting, financing, except as expressly set forth herein and in the Loan
Agreements, and (ii) the Bank has made no commitment with respect to, and there
is no understanding, explicit or implicit, relating to or affecting the terms of
any further restructure or workout of the Ad Art Obligations or the Remaining
Businesses Obligations other than as expressly provided in this Agreement and
the Loan Agreements.
p. LIMITED RELATIONSHIPS. Neither Bank nor any representative
of Bank at any time has agreed or consented to being an agent, principal,
business associate or participant, joint venturer, partner or alter ego of any
of the Borrowers or any of their affiliates, and no such relationship is
contemplated. No person except employees of the Bank and the Bank's counsel has
at any time been directly or indirectly authorized by the Bank to directly or
indirectly represent, speak or act for or on behalf of the Bank with respect to
any matter whatsoever related to, arising out of or connected with this
Agreement or any other matter or contract.
q. USURY. In no event shall this or any other provision herein
or in the Loan Agreements or other Loan Documents permit the collection of any
interest which would be usurious under the laws of the State of Alabama. If any
such interest in excess of the maximum rate allowable under applicable law has
been collected, each of the Borrowers agrees that the amount of interest
collected above the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, together with
interest thereon at the rate required by applicable law, shall be refunded to
the Borrowers, and each of the Borrowers agrees to accept such refund, or, at
the Borrowers' option, such refund shall be applied as a principal payment
hereunder.
