promotion, labeling, sale or advertisement of any such product by such Grantor.
Each Grantor agrees that the Lenders 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 such Grantor, and each Grantor hereby indemnifies and holds each
Lender harmless with respect to any and all claims by any person relating
thereto.

(i) keep all Inventory and all records pertaining to
Collateral, at or affixed to the location of its chief executive office set
forth on Schedule B or such other place or places as it may designate in a
writing delivered to the Lenders thirty (30) days before moving such Collateral
or records to another place, and may use such Collateral only for purposes for
which it is commonly employed in Grantors' type of business;
(ii) as soon as practicable after the date hereof, but in any
event within sixty (60) days after such an item of property becomes Collateral,
deliver to the Lenders all Instruments, Documents and Chattel Paper that are
Collateral, with all endorsements or assignments necessary, or in the Lenders'
judgment reasonably appropriate, for each item of such Collateral to be
transferable; and
(iii) keep the proceeds of all Collateral segregated from
property that is not Collateral or proceeds thereof so that it may readily be
identified as proceeds of Collateral.
Section 4. Financing Statements and Notice. Grantors hereby
authorize the Lenders, without notice or the signature of any Grantor, to file
any financing statements and any amendments thereto or continuations thereof,
naming each Grantor as debtor and the Lenders as secured parties. At the
Lenders' request, each Grantor will join with the Lenders in executing any such
financing statements, amendments or continuations. In order to perfect, maintain
or protect its security interest, the Lenders may give notice of its security
interest in Collateral and may deliver a copy of this Agreement to any Person.
Section 5. Preservation of Collateral and Security Interest.
(a) Each Grantor shall maintain tangible Collateral in at least as good
condition as it is on the date hereof or when acquired by such Grantor, ordinary
wear and tear excepted, and not permit anything to be done that will materially
impair the value of any Collateral. Each Grantor shall at all times keep
accurate and complete records with respect to Collateral and shall furnish to
the Lenders upon request copies of its records relating to Collateral and all
additional information reasonably requested by the Lenders. The respective
representatives of the Lenders shall, during reasonable business hours and upon
notice given two Business Days in advance, have the right to enter upon any
Grantor's premises, inspect Collateral, and examine and make copies of such
Grantor's records relating to Collateral at such Grantor's expense.
(b) No Grantor shall make an assignment, pledge, mortgage, or
other transfer of Collateral or any interest in it other than in the ordinary
course of its business, and shall keep all Collateral free from all Liens;
provided, however, that the foregoing limitations shall not apply to (i)
purchase money security interests or capital lease transactions in connection
with the purchase or lease of Equipment to be used by such Grantor in the
ordinary course of its business or (ii) such other dispositions of Collateral as
the Lenders may approve in writing in advance. Within ten (10) days of its
occurrence, Grantors shall give written notice to the Lenders of any material
loss of, or material damage to, Collateral; Grantors shall give immediate
written notice to the
7
Lenders of any Lien, against or upon Collateral having such value which shall
not be discharged, released or satisfied within ten (10) days. The Lenders, at
their option, may pay or cause the discharge of taxes, Liens at any time levied
or placed on Collateral, take any action to maintain and preserve Collateral and
remedy any breach of any Grantor hereunder. Each Grantor shall do, execute and
deliver all additional acts, deeds, and instruments as the Lender may require,
to more completely vest in and assure to the Lenders their rights hereunder.
Section 6. Limitation on Modifications of Accounts. No Grantor
will, without the prior written consent of the Lenders, grant any extension for
the time of payment of any of the Accounts, compromise, compound or settle the
same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly, or partly, any
Person liable for the payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount
whatsoever thereon other than extensions, credits, discounts, compromises or
settlements granted or made in the ordinary course of business; provided,
however, that so long as no Event of Default (as defined in Section 8) has
occurred or is continuing, any Grantor may, without the prior written consent of
the Lender, allow in the ordinary course of business as adjustments to amounts
owing under its Accounts (i) an extension or renewal of the time or times of
payment, or the settlement for less than the total unpaid balance, which such
Grantor finds appropriate in accordance with sound business judgment and (ii) a
refund or credit due as a result of returned, damaged or non-conforming
merchandise.
Section 7. Insurance. Each Grantor will maintain insurance on
its respective portion of the Collateral in such amounts and with such coverage
as is reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders and as is consistent with coverage
usually carried by corporations of a similar size engaged in the same or similar
business similarly situated. Any proceeds received by any Grantor in payment for
loss of or damage to Collateral under such insurance shall be held in trust by
such Grantor and be Collateral hereunder; it shall be applied by such Grantor to
repair or replace the Collateral in respect of which it was received, and if not
so applied, to payment of Obligations. Each Grantor will give the Lenders
immediate written notice of the receipt by such Grantor and amount of any such
insurance proceeds and prior written notice of the manner in which such proceeds
shall be applied. Upon the Lenders' request, such Grantor shall deliver
certificates of such insurance to the Lender.
Section 8. Events of Default. (a) "Events of Default" shall
exist hereunder if:
(i) Any Grantor shall fail to perform any Obligation, or to
pay any sum to the Lenders, when and as due, whether by acceleration or
otherwise;
(ii) any representation or warranty of any Grantor set forth
herein shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect (if
not qualified by materiality) and in any respect (if qualified by materiality)
when made or deemed to have been made and, if such breach of representation or
warranty is capable of being cured within such time, such breach shall have
continued for ten (10) Business Days (A) after notice of such breach if such
Grantor has complied with Section 8(b) hereof or (B) after the date of such
breach if such Grantor has not complied with Section 8(b) hereof;
(iii) any obligation of any Grantor under this Agreement shall
not be complied
8
with and, if such noncompliance is capable of being cured within such time, such
noncompliance shall have continued for ten (10) Business Days (A) after notice
of such noncompliance if such Grantor has complied with Section 8(b) hereof or
(B) after the date of such noncompliance if such Grantor has not complied with
Section 8(b) hereof; or
(iv) an Event of Default as defined in the Credit Agreement
shall occur and be continuing.
(b) Each Grantor shall, promptly upon becoming aware thereof,
notify the Lenders in writing of any Event of Default and any condition or event
which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of
Default if that condition or event were not cured or removed within any
applicable grace or cure period.
Section 9. Rights Following an Event of Default. Following and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, each of the following provisions
shall apply:
(a) the Lenders shall have all rights and remedies afforded by
the Uniform Commercial Code, to a secured creditor having a security interest in
property to which Article 9 thereof applies.
(b) Each Grantor will, upon receipt of any proceeds, dividend,
stock certificate or other sums arising from the sale or other disposition of
Collateral or any instrument evidencing an obligation to pay such sums, hold
same in trust for the Lenders in the form received, and will forthwith, without
notice or demand, endorse, transfer and deliver same to the Lenders, and, should
such Grantor obtain possession of goods, the sale or lease of which gave rise to
an Account, such Grantor shall hold same in trust for the Lenders subject to the
security interest hereunder.
(c) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints each of the
Lenders its true and lawful agent to act in such Grantor's name or in such
Lender's name as fully and completely as though such Lender was the absolute
owners of Collateral for all purposes. Any Lender may exercise all of such
Grantor's rights of collection, enforcement, conversion or exchange and all
other similar rights, privileges and options pertaining to Collateral, all of
such Grantor's rights to commence, prosecute or settle any legal actions, give
releases, or settle or compromise any rights, with respect to Collateral, and
generally all of such Grantor's rights to sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
convey, make any agreement with respect to, or otherwise deal with, Collateral.
The Lender may execute and deliver any and all documents and take any and all
actions on behalf of such Grantor in order to carry out the provisions of this
Agreement.
Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring the Lenders to
make any demand or inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment, or to
take any action with respect to Collateral or moneys, proceeds or income due, or
to become due thereunder, and no such action taken or omitted to be taken, or
delay, by the Lender, shall give rise to any defense, counterclaim or set-off in
favor of any Grantor or to any claim or action against the Lenders. The Lenders
shall have the right, upon consultation with such Grantor, to communicate with
any account debtor of
9
such Grantor in order to verify Account balances from time to time, provided
that such verification right shall be exercised in a commercially reasonable
manner and pursuant to documentation and procedures acceptable to such Grantor.
The Lenders shall have the right, without prior notice to any Grantor, to notify
or to require such Grantor to notify the parties obligated on any Collateral to
make payment thereon directly to the Lenders. Each such Grantor shall give such
notice itself if requested to do so by the Lenders.
(d) No Grantor shall make any further use of the Copyrights,
Patents or Trademarks for any purpose without the consent of the Lenders and
shall, upon the request of the Lenders, use its best efforts to obtain all
requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each license to which such
Grantor is a party, including but not limited to those set forth on Schedule G
hereto, to effect the assignment of all of Grantor's right, title and interest
thereunder to the Lenders or its designees.
(e) The Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, upon
fifteen (15) days' prior notice to the appropriate Grantor, license (whether
general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive
basis) any of the Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks, throughout the world for
such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Lenders shall
in its sole discretion determine.
(f) The Lenders may (without assuming any obligations or
liability thereunder) enforce, and shall have the exclusive right to enforce,
against any licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of each Grantor in,
to and under any one or more license agreements with respect to the Collateral,
and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof, and each such
Grantor hereby releases the Lenders from, and agrees to hold the Lenders free
and harmless from and against any claims arising out of, any action taken or
omitted to be taken with respect to any such license agreement.
(g) The Lenders may apply the proceeds actually received from
any such license, assignment, sale or other disposition to the reasonable costs
and expenses thereof (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and all legal and other expenses which may be incurred by the Lenders), and then
to the Obligations, in such order as is set forth in this Agreement; and each
Grantor shall remain liable and will pay the Lenders on demand any deficiency
remaining, together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the highest rate
then payable on the Obligations and the balance of any expenses unpaid. Nothing
herein contained shall be construed as requiring the Lenders to take any such
action at any time.
In the event of any such license, assignment, sale or other
disposition of all or any part of the Collateral, after the occurrence or
continuation as hereinabove provided of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall
supply its know-how and expertise relating to the manufacture and sale of the
products bearing or in connection with the Copyrights, Trademarks or Patents,
and its customer lists and other records relating to the Copyrights, Trademarks
or Patents and to the distribution of said products, to the Lenders or their
designees.
(h) Concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, each
Grantor is
10
executing and delivering to the Lenders, in the form of Exhibit 4 hereto,
originals of a Power of Attorney for the implementation of the assignment, sale
or other disposal of the Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents pursuant hereto, and
each Grantor hereby releases the Lenders 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 the Lenders under the power of attorney granted herein,
other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Lenders.
Section 10. Possession of Collateral. After and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Lenders shall be entitled, without
notice to any Grantor, to appointment of a receiver to take possession of
Collateral, and may require each Grantor to assemble Collateral and make the
same available to the Lenders at a place to be designated by the Lender
reasonably convenient to both parties. The Lenders' duty of care with respect to
Collateral shall be limited to the exercise of reasonable care. The Lenders
shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care if Collateral is accorded
treatment requested by such Grantor in writing or substantially the same as that
the Lenders accord their own property. The Lenders shall not be deemed to have
failed to exercise reasonable care solely because it may have failed to accord
Collateral treatment requested by such Grantor or to take steps to preserve
rights against prior parties or property.
Section 11. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any
collection or sale of Collateral, as well as any Collateral consisting of cash,
shall be applied by the Lenders as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by the Lenders in connection with this Agreement or any of the
Obligations, including, but not limited to, all court costs and the reasonable
fees and expenses of the agents and legal counsel of the Lenders, the repayment
of all advances made by the Lenders hereunder on behalf of any Grantor and any
other reasonable costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of
any right or remedy hereunder;
SECOND, to the payment in full of the principal and interest
of the Notes outstanding;
THIRD, to the payment in full of all Obligations (other than
those referred to above) owed to the Lenders; and
FOURTH, to each Grantor, its successors and assigns, or as a
court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
Section 12. Remedies Cumulative and not Waivable. The rights
and remedies of the Lenders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not
exclusive of other contractual, common law or statutory rights and remedies that
the Lenders may have, including without limitation, the right of set-off and all
rights and remedies of a secured creditor under Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted in New York. The Lenders shall be under no duty to
exercise or withhold the exercise of any of its rights and remedies provided
hereunder or otherwise. No omission or delay by the Lenders in exercising any
such right or remedy shall
11
operate as a waiver or partial waiver of any such right or remedy; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude further exercise
of such right or remedy, or exercise of any other right or remedy.
Section 13. Remedies Fully Exercisable. All rights and
remedies that the Lenders may have available to it under arrangements to secure
or support the Obligations (including but not limited to any right of setoff,
guaranty, bond, letter of credit, insurance, security agreement, pledge,
mortgage or deed of trust) may be exercised from time to time, in part or in
whole, and in any order by the Lenders without marshaling any Grantor's assets,
and without regard to the effect of exercise of one right or remedy upon another
right or remedy, the existence of other Liens upon any of such Grantor's assets,
or the relative degree or amount of equity that such Grantor shall have in one
asset as against another.
Section 14. Notices, Waiver of Presentment, Etc. All notices,
requests and other communications hereunder must be in writing and will be
deemed to have been duly given only if delivered personally against written

Section 15. New York Law; Resolution of Disputes. This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic
laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or
conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other
jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction
other than the State of New York. Except as may be otherwise provided herein or
as the context may require, all terms used herein shall have the meaning
ascribed to them by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in New York. In
connection with any dispute which may arise under this Agreement, each Grantor,
for itself and in respect of its property, hereby irrevocably submits to,
consents to, and waives any objection to, the jurisdiction of the courts of the
State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or
of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, or,
at the option of the Lender, to the courts of any jurisdiction in which such
Grantor or any Collateral may be located, and waives any objection to the laying
of venue in such a court. Each Grantor admits that any such dispute may be
resolved at least as conveniently in such a court as in any other court and,
will not seek dismissal or a change of venue on the ground that resolution of
such a dispute in any such court is not convenient or in the interests of
justice. No Grantor shall seek a jury trial in any action based upon or arising
out of this Agreement or any related document or agreement. No Grantor will seek
to consolidate any such action with any other action in which trial by jury has
not been waived.
14
Section 16. Waiver; Amendment. None of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any
manner whatsoever without the written approval of each party hereto.
Section 17. Termination, Release of Collateral. After the
Termination Date (as defined below) this Agreement shall terminate and the
Lenders, at the request and expense of Grantors, will execute and deliver to
Grantors a proper instrument or instruments (including Uniform Commercial Code
termination statements on form UCC-3) acknowledging the satisfaction and
termination of this Agreement as to Grantors, and will duly assign, transfer and
deliver to Grantor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty)
such of the Collateral as may be in the possession of the Lenders and as has not
theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this
Agreement. As used in this Agreement, "Termination Date" shall mean the date
upon which all payment Obligations have been irrevocably satisfied in full.
Section 18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original,
but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A
complete set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged
with each Grantor and each Lender.
Section 19. Other Provisions. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. It
sets forth all representations relied upon by Grantors in connection with it.
The Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, limited partners, general
partners, attorneys, agents and employees, shall not be liable to Grantors for
any loss or damage caused by any act or omission on the part of any of them
unless such loss or damage shall have been caused by the gross negligence or
wilful misconduct of such Person. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of Grantors and shall inure to the benefit of the
successors of the Lenders. In the event any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
contained shall not be affected or impaired in any way. Section headings used
herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this
Agreement.
