Borrower grants Bank a continuing security interest in all presently
existing and later acquired Collateral to secure all Obligations and performance
of each of Borrower's duties under the Loan Documents. Except for Permitted
Liens, any security interest will be a first priority security interest in the
Collateral. If this Agreement is terminated, Bank's lien and security interest
in the Collateral will continue until Borrower fully satisfies its Obligations.
If Borrower shall at any time, acquire a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall
promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower of the brief details
thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the
proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be
in form and substance satisfactory to Bank.
4.2 Authorization of File.
Borrower authorizes Bank to file financing statements without notice to
Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions, as Bank deems appropriate, in
order to perfect or protect Bank's interest in the Collateral.
5 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
5.1 Due Organization and Authorization.
Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly existing and in good standing in its
state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good
standing in, any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of
property requires that it be qualified, except where the failure to do so could
not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. Except as
disclosed in Borrower's Form 10-K Report for the year ended December 31, 2004
which has been delivered to Bank on or prior to the Effective Date, Borrower has
not changed its
5
state of formation or its organizational structure or type or any
organizational number (if any) assigned by its jurisdiction of formation.
The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been
duly authorized, and do not conflict with Borrower's formation documents, nor
constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower
is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which or by which
it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to cause a
Material Adverse Change.
5.2 Collateral.
Borrower has good title to the Collateral, free of Liens except Permitted
Liens or Borrower has Rights to each asset that is Collateral. Borrower has no
other deposit account, other than the deposit accounts described in the
Schedule. The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations, and the service or
property has been performed or delivered to the account debtor or its agent for
immediate shipment to and unconditional acceptance by the account debtor. The
Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as at a
warehouse). In the event that Borrower, after the date hereof, intends to store
or otherwise deliver the Collateral to such a bailee, then Borrower will receive
the prior written consent of Bank and such bailee must acknowledge in writing
that the bailee is holding such Collateral for the benefit of Bank. All
Inventory is in all material respects of good and marketable quality, free from
material defects. Borrower is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property,
except for non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary
course of business. Each Patent is valid and enforceable and no part of the
Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in
part, and no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property
violates the rights of any third party, except to the extent such claim could
not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
5.3 Litigation.
Except as shown in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings
pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower's Responsible Officers, threatened by
or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which a likely adverse decision could
reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
5.4 No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements.
All consolidated financial statements for Borrower, and any Subsidiary,
delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower's
consolidated financial condition and Borrower's consolidated results of
operations. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower's
consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial
statements submitted to Bank.
5.5 Solvency.
The fair salable value of Borrower's assets (including goodwill minus
disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; the Borrower is
not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this
Agreement; and Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they
mature.
5.6 Regulatory Compliance.
Borrower is not an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an
"investment company" under the Investment Company Act. Borrower is not engaged
as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under
Regulations T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower has
complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act.
6
Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the
violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change. None of Borrower's or any Subsidiary's properties or assets has been
used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, by
previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting
any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each Subsidiary has
timely filed all required tax returns and paid, or made adequate provision to
pay, all material taxes, except those being contested in good faith with
adequate reserves under GAAP. Borrower and each Subsidiary has obtained all
consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings
with, and given all notices to, all government authorities that are necessary to
continue its business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so
could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.
5.7 Investments In Subsidiaries.
Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity
securities except for Permitted Investments.
5.8 Full Disclosure.
No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any
certificate or written statement given to Bank (taken together with all such
written certificates and written statements to Bank) contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading. It

forecasts may differ from the projected and forecasted results.
