Company using the Intellectual Property and shall have the right to

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

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

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 Notes.
Until so paid, any fees payable hereunder shall be added to the
principal amount of the Notes 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
Notes 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 Notes, 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 Notes, 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 Notes 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

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 Notes 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 Notes 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
TRIAL 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.
