any such sum, hold the same in trust for the Secured Party and shall

Debentures, and the Secured Party shall have all the rights and remedies of
a secured party under the UCC and/or any other applicable law (including
the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction in which any Intellectual
Property is then located). Without limitation, the Secured Party shall
have the following rights and powers:
(a) The Secured Party shall have the right to take possession of the
Intellectual Property and, for that purpose, enter, with the aid and
assistance of any person, any premises where the Intellectual Property, or
any part thereof, is or may be placed and remove the same, and the Company
shall assemble the Intellectual Property and make it available to the
Secured Party at places which the Secured Party shall reasonably select,
whether at the Company's premises or elsewhere, and make available to the
Secured Party, without rent, all of the Company's respective premises and
facilities for the purpose of the Secured Party taking possession of,
removing or putting the Intellectual Property in saleable or disposable
form.
(b) The Secured Party shall have the right to operate the business of
the Company using the Intellectual Property and shall have the right to
assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and deliver all or any part of
the Intellectual Property, at public or private sale or otherwise, either
with or without special conditions or stipulations, for cash or on credit
or for future delivery, in such parcel or parcels and at such time or times
and at such place or places, and upon such terms and conditions as the
Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable, all without (except as
shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) advertisement
or demand upon or notice to the Company or right of redemption of the
Company, which are hereby expressly waived. Upon each such sale, lease,
assignment or other transfer of Intellectual Property, the Secured Party
may, unless prohibited by applicable law which cannot be waived, purchase
all or any part of the Intellectual Property being sold, free from and
discharged of all trusts, claims, right of redemption and equities of the
Company, which are hereby waived and released.
7. Applications of Proceeds. The proceeds of any such sale, lease or
other disposition of the Intellectual Property hereunder shall be applied
first, to the expenses of retaking, holding, storing, processing and
preparing for sale, selling, and the like (including, without limitation,
any taxes, fees and other costs incurred in connection therewith) of the
Intellectual Property, to the reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses
incurred by the Secured Party in enforcing its rights hereunder and in
connection with collecting, storing and disposing of the Intellectual
Property, and then to satisfaction of the Obligations, and to the payment
of any other amounts required by applicable law, after which the Secured
Party shall pay to the Company any surplus proceeds. If, upon the sale,
license or other disposition of the Intellectual Property, the proceeds
thereof are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Party is
legally entitled, the Company will be liable for the deficiency, together
with interest thereon, at the rate of 15% per annum (the "Default Rate"),
and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to
collect such deficiency. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Company waives all claims, damages and demands against the Secured Party
arising out of the repossession, removal, retention or sale of the
Intellectual Property, unless due to the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Secured Party.
8. Costs and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay all out-of-pocket
fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any filing required
hereunder, including without limitation, any financing statements,
continuation statements, partial releases and/or termination statements
related thereto or any expenses of any searches reasonably required by the
Secured Party. The Company shall also pay all other claims and charges
which in the reasonable opinion of the Secured Party might prejudice,
imperil or otherwise affect the Intellectual Property or the Security
Interest therein. The Company will also, upon demand, pay to the Secured
Party the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the
reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents,
which the Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the enforcement of
this Agreement, (ii) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of,
collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Intellectual
Property, or (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the
Secured Party under the Debentures. Until so paid, any fees payable
hereunder shall be added to the principal amount of the Debentures and
shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
9. Responsibility for Intellectual Property. The Company assumes all
liabilities and responsibility in connection with all Intellectual
Property, and the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the
Debentures and the Warrants shall in no way be affected or diminished by
reason of the loss, destruction, damage or theft of any of the Intellectual
Property or its unavailability for any reason.
10. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Secured Party and
all Obligations of the Company hereunder, shall be absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability
of this Agreement, the Debentures, the Warrants or any agreement entered
into in connection with the foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof;
(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other
amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Debentures,
the Warrants or any other agreement entered into in connection with the
foregoing; (c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any of the
Intellectual Property, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent
to departure from any other Intellectual Property for, or any guaranty, or
any other security, for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any action by
the Secured Party to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its sole
discretion any insurance claims or matters made or arising in connection
with the Intellectual Property; or (e) any other circumstance which might
otherwise constitute any legal or equitable defense available to the
Company, or a discharge of all or any part of the Security Interest granted
hereby. Until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full,
the rights of the Secured Party shall continue even if the Obligations are
barred for any reason, including, without limitation, the running of the
statute of limitations or bankruptcy. The Company expressly waives
presentment, protest, notice of protest, demand, notice of nonpayment and
demand for performance. In the event that at any time any transfer of any
Intellectual Property or any payment received by the Secured Party
hereunder shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance
under the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the United States, or shall be
deemed to be otherwise due to any party other than the Secured Party, then,
in any such event, the Company's obligations hereunder shall survive
cancellation of this Agreement, and shall not be discharged or satisfied by
any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation of this Agreement, but shall
remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the
terms and provisions hereof. The Company waives all right to require the
Secured Party to proceed against any other person or to apply any
Intellectual Property which the Secured Party may hold at any time, or to
marshal assets, or to pursue any other remedy. The Company waives any
defense arising by reason of the application of the statute of limitations
to any obligation secured hereby.
11. Term of Agreement. This Agreement and the Security Interest shall
terminate on the date on which all payments under the Debentures have been
made in full and all other Obligations have been paid or discharged. Upon
such termination, the Secured Party, at the request and at the expense of
the Company, will join in executing any termination statement with respect
to any financing statement executed and filed pursuant to this Agreement.
12. Power of Attorney; Further Assurances.
(a) The Company authorizes the Secured Party, and does hereby make,
constitute and appoint it, and its respective officers, agents, successors
or assigns with full power of substitution, as the Company's true and
lawful attorney-in-fact, with power, in its own name or in the name of the
Company, to, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of

14. Other Security. To the extent that the Obligations are now or
hereafter secured by property other than the Intellectual Property or by
the guarantee, endorsement or property of any other person, firm,
corporation or other entity, then the Secured Party shall have the right,
in its sole discretion, to pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take
any other action with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or
affecting any of the Secured Party's rights and remedies hereunder.
15. Miscellaneous.
(a) No course of dealing between the Company and the Secured Party, nor
any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the
Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the
Debentures shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege.
(b) All of the rights and remedies of the Secured Party with respect to
the Intellectual Property, whether established hereby or by the Debentures
or by any other agreements, instruments or documents or by law shall be
cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently.
(c) This Agreement and the Security Agreement constitute the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and is
intended to supersede all prior negotiations, understandings and agreements
with respect thereto. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement,
no provision of this Agreement may be modified or amended except by a
written agreement specifically referring to this Agreement and signed by
the parties hereto.
(d) In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction for any reason,
unless such provision is narrowed by judicial construction, this Agreement
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be construed as if such invalid, prohibited
or unenforceable provision had been more narrowly drawn so as not to be
invalid, prohibited or unenforceable. If, notwithstanding the foregoing,
any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such provision, as to such jurisdiction,
shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portion of such
provision or the other provisions of this Agreement and without affecting
the validity or enforceability of such provision or the other provisions of
this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.
(e) No waiver of any breach or default or any right under this
Agreement shall be considered valid unless in writing and signed by the
party giving such waiver, and no such waiver shall be deemed a waiver of
any subsequent breach or default or right, whether of the same or similar
nature or otherwise.
(f) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
each party hereto and its successors and assigns.
(g) Each party shall take such further action and execute and deliver
such further documents as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry
out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement.
(h) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York, except to the extent the validity, perfection or
enforcement of a security interest hereunder in respect of any particular
Intellectual Property which are governed by a jurisdiction other than the
State of New York in which case such law shall govern. Each of the parties
hereto irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York
State or United States Federal court sitting in Manhattan county over any
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or
Federal court. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law. The parties hereto further waive any objection to venue in the State
of New York and any objection to an action or proceeding in the State of
New York on the basis of forum non conveniens.
(i) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A
JURY TRAIL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS AGREEMENT. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL
ENCOMPASSING OF ANY DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE
TO THE SUBJECT MATER OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON
LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER
IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH PARTY TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS
RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH PARTY HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING
INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT EACH PARTY WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS
WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY FURTHER WARRANTS AND
REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND
THAT SUCH PARTY HAS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY
TRIAL FOLLOWING SUCH CONSULTATION. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING
THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, IT MAY NOT BE
MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY
SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS AND SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS
AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF A LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A
WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
(j) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of
which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the
event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such
signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing
(or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same
force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.
