relationship with Grantor) an assignment to such Grantor of all rights to such inventions,
including Patents.
(h) Grantor has taken commercially reasonable steps to protect the secrecy and the validity
under applicable law of all material Trade Secrets.
4. Covenants of the Grantor. Grantor hereby agrees as follows:
(a) From and after the Trigger Date, Grantor, at the Grantor’s expense, shall promptly
procure, execute and deliver to Lender all documents, instruments and agreements and perform all
acts which are necessary, or which Lender may reasonably request, to establish, maintain, preserve,
protect and perfect the Collateral, the lien granted to Lender therein and the first priority of
such lien (subject to Permitted Liens) or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and
remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the
preceding sentence, Grantor shall (i) execute all notices of security interest for each relevant
type of intellectual property in forms suitable for filing with the Patent and Trademark Office or
the Copyright Office, as applicable, substantially in the forms of Attachments 2 and 3
hereto or other forms acceptable to Lender and (ii) take all commercially reasonable steps in any
proceeding before the Patent and Trademark Office, the Copyright Office or any similar office or
agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to diligently prosecute or
maintain, as applicable, each application and registration of the Patents, Trademarks and
Copyrights, including filing of renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and
opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings (except to the extent that the failure to
prosecute or maintain or the dedication, abandonment or invalidation thereof is permitted hereunder
or unless Grantor in the exercise of its prudent business judgment deems the failure to prosecute
or maintain or the dedication, abandonment or invalidation to be commercially reasonable).
(b) Grantor shall not use any Collateral or knowingly, after reasonable inquiry, permit any
Collateral to be used in violation of (i) any provision of the Loan Agreement, this Security
Agreement or any Other Agreements, (ii) any applicable governmental rule or contractual obligation
violation, or (iii) any policy of insurance covering the Collateral.
(c) Grantor shall pay promptly when due all taxes and other governmental charges, all liens
and all other charges (except to the extent constituting Permitted Liens) now or hereafter imposed
upon, relating to or affecting any Collateral; except for taxes being disputed in good faith and
for which Grantor has adequate reserves.
(d) Grantor shall appear in and defend any action or proceeding which may affect its title to
or Lender’s security interest in the Collateral.

Collateral as Lender may reasonably request from time to time.
3
(f) Grantor shall not sell, encumber, lease, rent, option, license or otherwise dispose of or
transfer any Collateral or right or interest therein except as permitted in the Loan Agreement, and
Grantor shall keep the Collateral free of all liens except Permitted Liens.
(g) Grantor (either directly or through licensees) will continue to use the Trademarks in
connection with each and every trademark class of goods or services applicable to its current line
of products or services as reflected in its current catalogs, brochures, price lists or similar
materials in order to maintain the Trademarks in full force and effect free from any claim of
abandonment for nonuse, and Grantor will not (and will not knowingly permit, after reasonable
inquiry, any licensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Trademark
may become invalidated, unless Grantor, in the exercise of its prudent business judgment, deems any
such Trademark not to have any significant commercial value. Grantor will not do any act, or omit
to do any act, whereby the Patents or Patent Registrations may become abandoned or dedicated or the
remedies available against potential infringers weakened and shall notify Lender immediately if it
knows of any reason or has reason to know that any such Patent Registration may become abandoned or
dedicated, unless Grantor, in the exercise of its prudent business judgment, deems any such Patent
not to have any significant commercial value. Grantor will not do any act or omit to do any act,
whereby the Copyrights may become abandoned or dedicated or the remedies available against
potential infringers weakened unless Grantor, in the exercise of its prudent business judgment,
deems any such Copyright not to have any significant commercial value, and shall notify Lender
immediately if it knows of any reason or has reason to know that any such Copyright may become
abandoned or dedicated.
(h) Grantor will promptly notify Lender upon the filing, either by Grantor or through any
agent, employee, licensee or designee, of (i) an application for the registration of any Patent,
Trademark, or Copyright with the Patent and Trademark Office or the Copyright Office or any similar
office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) any assignment of
any Patent or Trademark, which Grantor may acquire from a third party, with the Patent and
Trademark Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision
thereof, or (iii) any assignment of any Copyright, which Grantor may acquire from a third party,
with the Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political
subdivision thereof.
(i) Grantor shall make application to (i) the Patent and Trademark Office to register any
unpatented but patentable inventions developed by Grantor or its employees or consultants (within
the scope of their employment or consulting relationship), unless Grantor, in the exercise of its
prudent business judgment, deems any such Patent not to have any significant commercial value or
determines that its rights thereunder are better preserved as a Trade Secret, (ii) the Patent and
Trademark Office to register any registerable but unregistered Trademarks used by Grantor in
connection with its products or services unless Grantor in the exercise of its prudent business
judgment, deems any such Trademark not to have any significant commercial value, and (iii) the
Copyright Office to register any unregistered Copyright to which Grantor has rights unless Grantor
in the exercise of its prudent business judgment, deems any such Copyright not to have any
significant commercial value or determines that its rights thereunder are better protected as a
Trade Secret.
(j) Grantor shall and shall cause its employees and require its licensees to (i) use proper
statutory notice in connection with its use of the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights,
(ii) maintain consistent standards of quality in its manufacture of products sold under the
Trademarks or provision of services in connection with the Trademarks, and (iii) take commercially
reasonable steps necessary to protect the secrecy and the validity under applicable law of all
material Trade Secrets.
(k) If Grantor learns of any use by any Person of any term or design that is reasonably
foreseeable to cause confusion with any Trademark, Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of such use
and of all steps taken and to be taken to remedy any infringement of such Trademark, unless
Grantor, in the exercise of its prudent business judgment, deems such Trademark not to have any
significant commercial value.
(l) Grantor shall maintain with each employee or consultant who may have access to the Trade
Secrets of Grantor an agreement by which such employee or consultant agrees not to disclose such
Trade Secrets and with each employee or consultant who may be the inventor of patentable inventions
(invented within the scope of their employment or consulting relationship) an invention assignment
agreement requiring such employee or consultant to assign all rights to such inventions, including,
patents and patent applications, to Grantor and further
4
requiring such employee or consultant to cooperate fully with Grantor and its successors in
interest in the prosecution of any patent application or in any litigation involving the invention,
whether such cooperation is required during such employee’s employment or such consultant’s
relationship with Grantor or after the termination thereof.
5. Authorized Action by the Lender. Effective as of the Trigger Date, Grantor hereby
irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact and agrees that Lender may perform (but Lender
shall not be obligated to and shall incur no liability to Grantor or any third party for failure so
to do) any act which Grantor is obligated by this Security Agreement to perform, and to exercise
such rights and powers as Grantor might exercise with respect to the Collateral, including, without
limitation, the right to (a) collect by legal proceedings or otherwise and endorse, receive and
receipt for all royalties, payments, proceeds and other sums and property now or hereafter payable
on or on account of the Collateral; (b) insure, process, preserve and enforce the Collateral;
(c) make any compromise or settlement, and take any commercially reasonable action it deems
advisable, with respect to the Collateral; (d) pay any indebtedness of Grantor relating to the
Collateral; and (e) execute UCC financing statements and other documents, instruments and
agreements required hereunder; provided, however, that Lender shall exercise such
powers only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Grantor agrees
to reimburse Lender upon demand for all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, Lender may
incur while acting as Grantor’s attorney-in-fact hereunder, all of which costs and expenses are
included in the Secured Obligations. Grantor agrees that such care as Lender gives to the
safekeeping of its own property of like kind shall constitute reasonable care of the Collateral
when in Lender’s possession; provided, however, that Lender shall not be required
to make any presentment, demand or protest, or give any notice and need not take any action to
preserve any rights against any prior party or any other Person in connection with the Secured
Obligations or with respect to the Collateral.
6. Default and Remedies. From and after the Trigger Date but relating back to the
date hereof, Grantor shall be deemed in default under this Security Agreement upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement.
From and after the Trigger Date but relating back to the date hereof, in addition to all other
rights and remedies granted to Lender by this Security Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the Other
Agreements, the UCC and other applicable governmental rules, Lender may, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, exercise any one or more of the following rights
and remedies: (a) collect, receive, appropriate or realize upon the Collateral or otherwise
foreclose or enforce the Lender’s security interests in any or all Collateral in any manner not
prohibited by applicable governmental rules or in this Security Agreement; (b) notify any or all
licensees of Collateral to make payments thereon directly to Lender; (c) sell, license or otherwise
dispose of any or all Collateral at one or more public or private dispositions, whether or not such
Collateral is present at the place of sale, for cash or credit or future delivery, on such
commercially reasonable terms and in such commercially reasonable manner as Lender may determine in
accordance with applicable law; (d) upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to Grantor, direct
Grantor not to make any further use of the Patents, the Trademarks (or any xxxx similar thereto),
or the Copyrights (or any work deriving therefrom); (e) upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice
to Grantor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or

term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as Lender shall in its sole discretion
determine; (f) enforce (and upon notice to Grantor have the exclusive right to enforce) against any
licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of Grantor in, to and under any one or more license
agreements with respect to the Collateral (without assuming any obligations or liability
thereunder), and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof; and (g) in addition to
the foregoing, in order to implement the assignment, sale or other disposal of any of the
Collateral, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 5 hereof, execute and deliver on
behalf of Grantor, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to Grantor, one or more instruments of
assignment of the Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights (or any application or registration thereof),
in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.
7. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by Lender to the Secured
Obligations in any manner whatsoever as Lender shall choose in its sole and absolute discretion.

8. Indemnification and Release.
(a) Grantor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from the use of the Patents,
Trademarks and Copyrights, and Grantor hereby indemnifies and holds Lender and its directors,
officers, employees, agents and any of its respective Affiliates (“Indemnitees”) harmless from and
against any claim, suit, loss, damage or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising
out of or in connection with (i) any alleged infringement of any patent, trademark, service xxxx,
trade name, trade secret or copyright of a third party or alleged defect in any product
manufactured, promoted or sold by Grantor (or any Affiliate of Grantor) in connection with any
Patent, Trademark or Copyright, (ii) the manufacture, promotion, labeling, sale or advertisement of
any product or service by Grantor (or any Affiliate of Grantor), (iii) any action taken or omitted
to be taken by Lender hereunder with respect to any license agreement of Grantor or (iv) any claim,
suit or proceeding instituted by Grantor or in which Grantor participates. Grantor agrees that the
Indemnities do not assume, and shall have no responsibility for, the payment of any sums due or to
become due under any agreement or contract included in the Collateral or the performance of any
obligations to be performed under or with respect to any such agreement or contract by Grantor, and
Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold each Indemnitee harmless with respect to any and all
claims by any Person relating thereto.
(b) Grantor hereby releases the Indemnitees from any claims, causes of action and demands at
any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by Lender under
the powers of attorney granted in Section 5 hereof, other than actions or omissions
determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen through the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of any such Indemnitees.
(c) Grantor agrees to cause Lender to be named as an additional insured with respect to any
policy of insurance held by Grantor from time to time, if any, covering product liability or
intellectual property infringement risk.
(d) Nothing contained in this Section 8 shall, however, be deemed to require Grantor
to indemnify or hold harmless any Indemnitee from or against any losses, costs, suits, expenses,
claims or damages to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from
any such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
9. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices, requests, demands,
consents, instructions or other communications to or upon Grantor or Lender under this Security
Agreement shall be given as provided in Section 9.1 of the Loan Agreement.
(b) Partial Invalidity. If at any time any provision of this Security Agreement is or
becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither
the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement nor
the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction
shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
(c) Headings. The section headings and captions appearing in this Security Agreement
are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation
of any provision of this Security Agreement.
(d) No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Lender shall not by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder or under the Loan
Agreement or the Other Agreements, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy
hereunder or thereunder on any one or more occasions preclude the further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or remedy hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies hereunder
provided or provided under the Loan Agreement or the Other Agreements are cumulative and may be
exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law
or by any of the Other Agreements. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may
be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by
6
Grantor and Lender. Unless otherwise specified in any such waiver or consent, a waiver or
consent given hereunder shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given.
(e) Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of each of the
terms and provisions of this Security Agreement.
(f) Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Grantor for liquidation or
reorganization, should Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors
or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Grantor’s property
and assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable
law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of
the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise,
all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any
part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be
reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned.
(g) Termination of this Security Agreement. Subject to Section 9(f), this
Security Agreement shall terminate upon the later to occur of the full, complete and final payment
of the Secured Obligations and the termination of Lender’s commitments under the Loan Agreement.
(h) Successors and Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of Grantor
hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Grantor, and shall, together with the
rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and
assigns except that Grantor may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of Lender. Any assignment or transfer in violation of the
foregoing shall be null and void.
(i) Further Indemnification. Grantor agrees to pay, and to save Lender harmless from,
any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all excise,
sales or other similar taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any
of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Security
Agreement.
(j) Amendment, Etc. No amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or
waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement, no approval or consent thereunder, and no
consent to any departure by Grantor therefrom, may in any event be effective unless in writing
signed by Lender and, to the extent such amendment, modification, supplement or extension would
materially expand, enlarge or adversely affect the obligations of or adversely affect the rights of
Grantor, by Grantor, and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given and
any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or waiver shall be binding
upon Lender and Grantor; and, without the approval in writing of Lender and Grantor (as
applicable), no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent may be
effective as to the matters set forth in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the
release of Grantor.
(k) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE COMPLETE AND FINAL
AGREEMENT AMONG GRANTOR AND LENDER AND SUPERSEDES ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS, WRITTEN OR ORAL, ON THE
SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR
SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF SUCH PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN OR
AMONG GRANTOR AND LENDER.

accordance with the laws and decisions of the State of Illinois without reference to conflicts of
law rules.

Agreement shall be made by Grantor free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present
and future taxes, levies, charges, deductions and withholdings (except as otherwise provided in the
Loan Agreement). In addition, Grantor shall pay upon demand any stamp or other taxes, levies or
charges of any applicable jurisdiction with respect to the execution, delivery, registration,

furnish evidence satisfactory to Lender that all requisite authorizations and approvals by, and
notices to and filings with, governmental authorities and regulatory bodies have been obtained and
made and that all requisite taxes, levies and charges have been paid.
(o) Grantor’s Continuing Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Security
Agreement or any Other Agreement or any exercise by Lender of any of its rights hereunder or
thereunder (including, without limitation, any right to collect or enforce any Collateral), (i)
Grantor shall remain liable to perform its obligations and duties in connection with the Collateral
and (ii) Lender shall not assume or be considered to have assumed any liability to perform such
obligations and duties or to enforce any of Grantor’s rights in connection with the Collateral.
