case, irrespective of the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of

4. The occurrence of any of the following events or conditions shall
constitute an "Event of Default" under this Master Security Agreement:
(a) Breach of any covenant, warranty, representation or

Assignor's benefit was false or misleading in any material respect when

indebtedness in excess of $100,000 and such levy, seizure or
attachment has not been removed or otherwise released within
ten (10) days of the creation or the assertion thereof;
(c) any Assignor shall become insolvent, cease operations,
dissolve, terminate our business existence, make a general assignment
for the benefit of creditors, suffer the appointment of a receiver,

Document.
4
5. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time
thereafter, Multi-Channel may declare all Obligations immediately due and
payable and Multi-Channel shall have the remedies of a secured party provided in
the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of California, this
Agreement and other applicable law. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
and at any time thereafter following the expiration of the applicable cure
period, Multi-Channel will have the right to take possession of the Collateral
and to maintain such possession on our premises or to remove the Collateral or
any part thereof to such other premises as Multi-Channel may desire. Upon
Multi-Channel's request, each of the Assignors shall assemble or cause the
Collateral to be assembled and make it available to Multi-Channel at a place
designated by Multi-Channel. If any notification of intended disposition of any
Collateral is required by law, such notification, if mailed, shall be deemed
properly and reasonably given if mailed at least ten (10) days before such
disposition, postage prepaid, addressed to any Assignor either at such
Assignor's address shown herein or at any address appearing on Multi-Channel's
records for such Assignor. Any proceeds of any disposition of any of the
Collateral shall be applied by Multi-Channel to the payment of all expenses in
connection with the sale of the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys' fees
and other legal expenses and disbursements and the reasonable expense of
retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling, and the like, and any balance of
such proceeds may be applied by Multi-Channel toward the payment of the
Obligations in such order of application as Multi-Channel may elect, and each
Assignor shall be liable for any deficiency. For the avoidance of doubt,
following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default which
has not been cured, Multi-Channel shall have the immediate right to withdraw any
and all monies contained in the Restricted Account and apply same to the
repayment of the Obligations (in such order of application as Multi-Channel may
elect).
6. If any Assignor defaults in the performance or fulfillment of any of
the terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions or warranties on such
Assignor's part to be performed or fulfilled under or pursuant to this Master
Security Agreement, Multi-Channel may, at its option without waiving its right
to enforce this Master Security Agreement according to its terms, immediately or
at any time thereafter and without notice to any Assignor, perform or fulfill
the same or cause the performance or fulfillment of the same for each Assignor's
joint and several account and at each Assignor's joint and several cost and
expense, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys' fees)
shall be added to the Obligations and shall be payable on demand with interest
thereon at the highest rate permitted by law.
7. Each Assignor appoints Multi-Channel, any of Multi-Channel's
officers, employees or any other person or entity whom Multi-Channel may
designate as our attorney, with power to execute such documents in each of our
behalf and to supply any omitted information and correct patent errors in any
documents executed by any Assignor or on any Assignor's behalf; to file
financing statements against us covering the Collateral (and, in connection with
the filing of any such financing statements, describe the Collateral as "all
assets and all personal property, whether now owned and/or hereafter acquired"
(or any substantially similar variation thereof)); to sign our name on public
records; and to do all other things Multi-Channel reasonably deems necessary to
carry out this Master Security Agreement. This power being coupled with an
interest, is irrevocable so long as any Obligations remains unpaid.
8. No delay or failure on Multi-Channel's part in exercising any right,
privilege or option hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such or of any other
right, privilege, remedy or option, and no waiver whatever shall be valid unless
in writing, signed by Multi-Channel and then only to the extent therein set
forth, and no waiver by Multi-Channel of any default shall operate as a waiver
of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion.
5
Multi-Channel's books and records containing entries with respect to the
Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, shall
be binding upon each Assignor for the purpose of establishing the items therein
set forth and shall constitute prima facie proof thereof. Multi-Channel shall
have the right to enforce any one or more of the remedies available to
Multi-Channel, successively, alternately or concurrently. Each Assignor agrees
to join with Multi-Channel in executing financing statements or other
instruments to the extent required by the Uniform Commercial Code in form
satisfactory to Multi-Channel and in executing such other documents or
instruments as may be required or deemed necessary by Multi-Channel for purposes
of affecting or continuing Multi-Channel's security interest in the Collateral.
9. This Master Security Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California and cannot be terminated
orally. All of the rights, remedies, options, privileges and elections given to
Multi-Channel hereunder shall inure to the benefit of Multi-Channel's successors
and assigns. The term "Multi-Channel" as herein used shall include
Multi-Channel, any parent of Multi-Channel's, any of Multi-Channel's
subsidiaries and any co-subsidiaries of Multi-Channel's parent, whether now
existing or hereafter created or acquired, and all of the terms, conditions,
promises, covenants, provisions and warranties of this Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of each of the foregoing, and shall bind the representatives,
successors and assigns of each Assignor. Multi-Channel and each Assignor hereby
(a) waive any and all right to trial by jury in litigation relating to this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and each Assignor agrees not
to assert any counterclaim in such litigation, (b) submit to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any court in the state of California and (c) waive any objection
Multi-Channel or each Assignor may have as to the bringing or maintaining of
such action with any such court.
10. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement
and the terms of the Stock Pledge Agreement dated as of the date hereof between
Multi-Channel and the Company (the "Stock Pledge Agreement"), the terms of the
Stock Pledge Agreement will govern as to all matters relating to the Pledged
Collateral (as such term is defined in the Stock Pledge Agreement).
11. All notices from Multi-Channel to any Assignor shall be
sufficiently given if mailed or delivered to such Assignor's address set forth
below.
