disposition of Collateral and shall be secured hereby;

(h) the Secured Party will give the Debtor such notice, if any, of the date,
time and place of any public sale or of the date after which any private
disposition of Collateral is to be made, as may be required by the PPSA;
(i) for purposes of removal and possession of the Collateral, the Secured
Party or its representatives may enter any premises of the Debtor at any

property are located, and the Debtor hereby waives and releases the
Secured Party of and from any and all claims in connection therewith or
arising therefrom; and
(j) the Receiver shall be entitled to borrow money on the Collateral; but
nothing done under or pursuant to the powers herein shall render the
Secured Party a mortgagee in possession.
24. Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph 23 hereof, a
Receiver appointed pursuant to this Security Agreement or pursuant to court
order shall be entitled to exercise all rights conferred by the Business
Corporations Act of Ontario and the PPSA and by way of addition to and without
limiting those rights, such Receiver shall have the right and power:
(a) to take possession of and realize on all Collateral and substitutions and

written consent of the Secured Party, in priority to this Security
Agreement or otherwise;
(e) to make any arrangement or compromise which it shall think expedient in
the interests of the Secured Party;
(f) to exercise any powers conferred or delegated by the Secured Party; and

or conducive to any of the matters and powers aforesaid and which the
Receiver may or can lawfully do as agent for the Debtor.
25. The Receiver shall not be liable for any loss of any kind whatsoever
unless it is caused by the Receiver's own negligence or willful default. The
Receiver shall be considered to be the agent of the Debtor and the Debtor shall
be solely responsible for the Receiver's acts, defaults and remuneration.
MISCELLANEOUS
26. This Security Agreement, in addition to being a security agreement for the
purposes of the PPSA, is a debenture for the purposes of the Business
Corporations Act of Ontario and is a negotiable instrument. For the purpose of
registering or filing this Security Agreement in any registry office or any
other governmental office or public record, this Security Agreement may be made
in two or more counterparts and any counterpart so registered or filed shall be
deemed to be a negotiable instrument.
27. The Debtor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to file such financing
statements, financing change statements and other documents and do such acts,
matters and things (including completing and adding schedules hereto identifying
Collateral or any permitted Encumbrances affecting Collateral or identifying the
locations at which the Debtor's business is carried on and Collateral and
records relating thereto are situate) as the Secured Party may deem appropriate
to perfect on an ongoing basis and continue the Security Interest, to protect
and preserve Collateral and to realize upon the Security Interest and the Debtor
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party, if the Secured
Party is an individual, or the President of the Secured Party, if the Secured
Party is a corporation, the true and lawful attorney of the Debtor, with full
power of substitution, to do any of the foregoing in the name of the Debtor
whenever and wherever it may be deemed necessary or expedient.
28. Without limiting any other right of the Secured Party, whenever
Indebtedness is immediately due and payable or the Secured Party has the right
to declare Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable (whether or not it has
so declared), Secured Party may, in its sole discretion, set off against
Indebtedness any and all accounts then owed to the Debtor by the Secured Party
in any capacity, whether or not due, and the Secured Party shall be deemed to
have exercised such right to set off immediately at the time of making its
decision to do so even though any charge therefor is made or entered on the
Secured Party's records subsequent thereto.
29. Upon the Debtor's failure to perform any of its duties hereunder, the
Secured Party may, but shall not be obligated to, perform any or all of such
duties, and the Debtor shall pay to the Secured Party, forthwith upon written
demand therefor, an amount equal to the expense incurred by the Secured Party in
so doing plus interest thereon from the date such expense is incurred until it
is paid at the rate of the Bank of Montreal prime commercial lending rate plus
five per cent (5%) per annum.
30. The Secured Party may grant extensions of time and other indulgences, take
and give up security, accept compositions, compound, compromise, settle, grant
releases and discharges and otherwise deal with the Debtor, debtors of the
Debtor, sureties and others and with Collateral and other security as the
Secured Party may see fit without prejudice to the liability of the Debtor or
the Secured Party's right to hold and realize the Security Interest.
Furthermore, the Secured Party may demand, collect and xxx on Collateral in
either the Debtor's or the Secured Party's name, at the Secured Party's option,
and may endorse the Debtor's name on any and all cheques, commercial paper, and
any other Instruments pertaining to or constituting Collateral.
-13-
31. No delay or omission by the Secured Party in exercising any right or
remedy hereunder or with respect to any Indebtedness shall operate as a waiver
thereof or of any other right or remedy, and no single or partial exercise
thereof shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right or remedy. Furthermore, the Secured Party may remedy any default
by the Debtor hereunder or with respect to any Indebtedness in any reasonable
manner without waiving the default remedied and without waiving any other prior
or subsequent default by the Debtor. All rights and remedies of Secured Party
granted or recognized herein are cumulative and may be exercised at any time and
from time to time independently or in combination.
32. The Debtor waives presentment, protest and notice of protest of any
Instrument constituting Collateral at any time held by the Secured Party on
which the Debtor is in any way liable and, subject to paragraph 23(h) hereof,
notice of any other action taken by the Secured Party.
33. This Security Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns. In any action brought by an assignee of this Security
Agreement and the Security Interest or any part thereof to enforce any rights
hereunder, the Debtor shall not assert against the assignee any claim or defence
which the Debtor now has or hereafter may have against the Secured Party. If
more than one Debtor executes this Security Agreement the obligations of such
Debtors hereunder shall be joint and several.
34. Save for any schedules which may be added hereto pursuant to the
provisions hereof, no modification, variation or amendment of any provision of
this Security Agreement shall be made except by a written agreement, executed by
the parties hereto and no waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective
unless in writing.
35. Subject to the requirements of paragraph 23(h) hereof, whenever either
party hereto is required or entitled to notify or direct the other or to make a
demand or request upon the other, such notice, direction, demand or request
shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently given, in the case of the Secured
Party, if delivered to it or sent by prepaid registered mail addressed to it at
its address herein set forth or as changed pursuant hereto and, in the case of
the Debtor, if delivered to it or if sent by prepaid registered mail addressed
to it at its last address known to the Secured Party. Either party may notify
the other pursuant hereto of any change in such party's principal address to be
used for the purposes hereof.
36. This Security Agreement and the security afforded hereby is in addition to
and not in substitution for any other security now or hereafter held by the
Secured Party and is, and is intended to be a continuing Security Agreement and
shall remain in full force and effect until the Secured Party, if the Secured
Party is an individual, or the President of the Secured Party, if the Secured
Party is a corporation, shall actually receive written notice of its
discontinuance and, not withstanding such notice, shall remain in full force and
effect thereafter until all Indebtedness contracted for or created before the
receipt of such notice by the Secured Party, and any extensions or renewals
thereof (whether made before or after receipt of such notice) together with
interest accruing thereon after such notice and all amounts otherwise secured by
this Security Agreement, shall be paid in full.

time to time, shall be deemed invalid or void, in whole or in part, by any Court
of competent jurisdiction, the remaining terms and provisions of this Security
Agreement to the maximum extent possible shall remain in full force and effect.

grant, continue, renew, extend time for payment of or accept anything which
constitutes or would constitute Indebtedness.

the time of amalgamation and to any "Collateral" thereafter owned or
acquired by the amalgamated corporation; and

of the amalgamating corporations and the amalgamated corporation to the
Secured Party at the time of amalgamation and any Indebtedness of the
amalgamated corporation to the Secured Party thereafter arising. The
Security Interest shall attach to Collateral owned by each corporation
amalgamating with the Debtor, and by the amalgamated corporation, at the
time of amalgamation, and shall attach to any "Collateral" thereafter
owned or acquired by the amalgamated corporation when such becomes owned
or is acquired.
