the Debtor or Debtor-sub fail to perform or comply with any of its agreements or
covenants contained in this Agreement and the Secured Party performs or

covenant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then the expenses of
the Secured Party incurred in connection with such performance or compliance
shall be payable by the Debtor or Debtor-sub to the Secured Party on demand and
shall constitute obligations secured by this Agreement.
6. Remedies. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Secured Party may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted
to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement relating to the
obligations under the Convertible Promissory Note, all rights and remedies of a
secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Party,
without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law) to or
upon the Debtor-sub or any other person (all of which demands, defenses,
advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances
collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any or all of the Collateral,
and/or may sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or
otherwise dispose of and deliver any or all of the Collateral (or contract to do
any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or
sales, at any exchange, broker's board or office of the Secured Party or
elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as the Secured Party may deem
advisable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of
any credit risk. The Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public
sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or
sales, to purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right
or equity of redemption in the Debtor-sub, which right or equity is hereby
waived or released. The Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any such
collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after
deducting all reasonable expenses incurred therein or in connection with the
care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the
Collateral or the rights of the Secured Party under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) to the payment in
whole or in part of the obligations under the Convertible Promissory Note, in
such order as the Secured Party may elect, and only after such application and
after the payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any
provision of law, need the Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to the
Debtor-sub. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Debtor and Debtor-sub
waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Secured Party
arising out of the exercise by the Secured Party of any of its rights hereunder.
If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be
required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at
least ten days before such sale or other disposition. The Debtor and Debtor-sub
shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the obligations under the
Convertible Promissory Note and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys
employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency.
7. Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Collateral. The Secured
Party's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and preservation of
the Collateral, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal
with it in the same manner as the Secured Party deals with similar property for
its own account. Neither the Secured Party nor any of its directors, officers,
employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize
upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be
under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the
request of the Debtor-sub or otherwise.
8. Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies
contained in this Agreement with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and
are powers coupled with an interest.
9. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Secured Party shall not by any act
(except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof), delay,
indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy
hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default under the Convertible Promissory
Note or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No
failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured
Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Secured Party of any
right or remedy under this Agreement on any one occasion shall not be construed
as a bar to any right or remedy which the Secured Party would otherwise have on
any subsequent occasion. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are
cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any
rights or remedies provided by law.
10. Termination of Security Interest. Upon satisfaction of the Debtors
obligations pursuant to the Convertible Note, the security interest granted
herein shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the
Debtor-sub. Upon any such termination, the Secured Party shall authenticate and
deliver to the Debtor-sub such documents as the Debtor-sub may reasonably
request to evidence such termination.
11. Miscellaneous.

amended with the written consent of the parties hereto. Any amendment or waiver
effected in accordance with this Section 11 (a) shall be binding upon the
parties and their respective successors and assigns.

this Agreement shall be binding upon the Debtor and Debtor-sub and their

its successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their
respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement.
(c) Governing Law . This Agreement and all acts and transactions
pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be

evidence satisfactory to the Secured Party 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.
(i) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are
held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate
such provision in good faith, in order to maintain the economic position enjoyed
by each party as close as possible to that under the provision rendered
unenforceable. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable
and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be
