Party describing or with respect to the Collateral is or (in the case of

collecting or otherwise realizing upon the Collateral if an Event of Default
occurs and all attorneys' fees, legal expenses and court costs) incurred by
Secured Party in connection with the exercise of Secured Party's rights and
remedies hereunder. Debtor hereby assumes all liability for the Collateral, the
security interests created hereunder and any use, possession, maintenance,
management, enforcement or collection of any or all of the Collateral. Debtor
agrees to indemnify and hold Secured Party harmless from and against and
covenants to defend Secured Party against any and all losses, damages, claims,

not use any Collateral in violation of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation
or administrative order, or suffer it to be so used.
Section 4.15 COLLATERAL ATTACHED TO OTHER PROPERTY. In the event that
the Collateral is to be attached or affixed to any real property, Debtor hereby

RIGHTS, DUTIES AND POWERS OF SECURED PARTY
The following rights, duties and powers of Secured Party are applicable
irrespective of whether an Event of Default occurs and is continuing:
Section 5.1 NON-JUDICIAL ENFORCEMENT. Secured Party may enforce its
rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, and to the
extent permitted by law Debtor expressly waives any and all legal rights which

Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as Debtor's attorney-in-fact,

cost and expense and without notice to Debtor to:
(a) obtain, adjust, sell and cancel any insurance with respect to the
Collateral and endorse any draft drawn by insurers of the Collateral, and
Secured Party may apply any proceeds or unearned premiums of such insurance to
the Obligations (whether or not due);
(b) take any action and to execute any assignment, certificate,
financing statement, notification, document or instrument which Secured Party
may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement,

Section 5.4 TRANSFER OF COLLATERAL. Secured Party may transfer any or
all of the Obligations, and upon any such transfer Secured Party may transfer
its interest in any or all of the Collateral and shall be fully discharged
thereafter from all liability therefor. Any transferee of the Collateral shall
be vested with all rights, powers and remedies of Secured Party hereunder.
Section 5.5 CUMULATIVE AND OTHER RIGHTS. The rights, powers and
remedies of Secured Party hereunder are in addition to all rights, powers and
remedies given by law or in equity. The exercise by Secured Party of any one or
more of the rights, powers and remedies herein shall not be construed as a
waiver of any other rights, powers and remedies, including, without limitation,
any other rights of set-off.
Section 5.6 DISCLAIMER OF CERTAIN DUTIES.
(a) The powers conferred upon Secured Party by this Agreement are to
protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon
Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Debtor hereby agrees that Secured
Party shall not be liable for, nor shall the indebtedness evidenced by the
Obligations be diminished by, Secured Party's delay or failure to collect upon,
foreclose, sell, take possession of or otherwise obtain value for the
Collateral.
(b) Secured Party shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give
any presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for performance, notice of
non-performance, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or
other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Obligations, or
to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights against any Obligor, Account
Debtor or other person or entity. Debtor waives any right of marshaling in
respect of any and all Collateral, and waives any right to require Secured Party
to proceed against any Obligor, Account Debtor or other person or entity,
exhaust any Collateral or enforce any other remedy which Secured Party now has
or may hereafter have against any Obligor or other person or entity.
Section 5.7 MODIFICATION OF OBLIGATIONS; OTHER SECURITY. Debtor waives
(a) any and all notice of acceptance, creation, modification, rearrangement,
renewal or extension for any period of any instrument executed by any Obligor in
connection with the Obligations and (b) any defense of any Obligor by reason of
disability, lack of authorization, cessation of the liability of any Obligor or
for any other reason. Debtor authorizes Secured Party, without notice or demand
and without any reservation of rights against Debtor and without affecting
Debtor's liability hereunder or on the Obligations, from time to time to (1)
take and hold other property, other than the Collateral, as security for the
Obligations, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any or all of the
Collateral, (2) apply the Collateral in the manner permitted by this Agreement
and (3) renew, extend for any period, accelerate, amend or modify, supplement,
enforce, compromise, settle, waive or release the obligations of any Obligor or
any instrument or agreement of such other person or entity with respect to any
or all of the Obligations or Collateral.
Section 5.8 ACCOUNT DEBTORS. Secured Party may notify or require Debtor
to notify Account Debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to Secured Party
and direct such Account Debtors to make payments on the Accounts directly to
Secured Party. To the extent Secured Party does not so elect, Debtor shall
continue to collect the Accounts. Secured Party or its designee shall also have
the right, in its own name or in the name of Debtor, to do any of the following:
(a) to demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise any amounts due, give
acquittances for, prosecute or defend any action which may be in relation to any
monies due or to become due by
virtue of, the Accounts; (b) to sell, transfer or assign or otherwise deal in
the Accounts or the proceeds thereof or the related goods, as fully and
effectively as if Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof; (c) to extend
the time of payment of any of the Accounts, to grant waivers and make any
allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto; (d) to endorse the name of
Debtor on notes, checks or other evidences of payments on Collateral that may
come into possession of Secured Party; (e) to take control of cash and other
proceeds of any Collateral; (f) to sign the name of Debtor on any invoice or

or other persons making payment with respect to Collateral; (g) to send a
request for verification of Accounts to any Account Debtor; and (h) to do all
other acts and things necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. In
the event that Secured Party exercises its right to settle or adjust any
disputes or claims with Account Debtors on behalf of Debtor for an amount less
than the original Account in dispute, Secured Party shall not be obligated to
credit the Obligations in an amount in excess of the amount that Secured Party
receives as payment on such disputed Account. Any exercise by Secured Party of
its rights in and to the Accounts shall, as may be applicable, be a full and
complete release, discharge and acquittance of the Account Debtor with respect
to such Account, and Debtor shall take any action as may be required by Secured
Party in connection therewith. No Account Debtor shall ever be bound to make
inquiry as to the termination of this Agreement or the rights of Secured Party
to act hereunder, but shall be fully protected by Debtor in making payment
directly to Secured Party.
Section 5.9 PROCEEDS. If so requested by Debtor, any payments received
by Secured Party on the Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral shall upon
final collection by Secured Party be credited towards payment of the
Obligations. In the absence of such request from Debtor, and until so
requested, Secured Party may at Secured Party's option either (a) hold such
collected payments as cash Collateral (and Secured Party may at any time place a
hold or freeze on all or a part of any deposit account of Debtor containing
deposits of such payments up to the amount of such deposits) or (b) credit such
collected payments towards payment of the Obligations whether such Obligations
are due or not.
ARTICLE 6
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
Section 6.1 REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, Secured Party may take any or all of the following actions
without notice (except where expressly required below) or demand to Debtor:
(a) Declare all or part of the indebtedness pursuant to the
Obligations immediately due and payable and enforce payment of the same by
Debtor or any Obligor.
(b) Take possession of the Collateral, or at Secured Party's request
Debtor shall, at Debtor's cost, assemble the Collateral and make it available at
a location to be specified by Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to
Debtor and Secured Party. Secured Party may, at its option, render any
equipment unusable that may be included in the Collateral, or, at Secured
Party's request, Debtor will render it unusable. In any event, Debtor shall
bear the risk of accidental loss or damage to or diminution in value of the
Collateral, and Secured Party shall have no liability whatsoever for failure to
obtain or maintain insurance, nor to determine whether any insurance ever in
force is adequate as to amount or as to risk insured.
(c) Sell or lease, in one or more sales or leases and in one or more
parcels, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then
condition or in any other commercially reasonable manner as Secured Party may
elect, in a public or private transaction, at any location as deemed reasonable
by Secured Party (including, without limitation, Debtor's premises), either for
cash or credit or for future delivery at such price as Secured Party may deem
fair, and (unless prohibited by the Code, as adopted in any applicable
jurisdiction) Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so
sold and may apply upon the purchase price therefor any Obligations secured
hereby. Any such sale or transfer by Secured Party either to itself or to any
other person or entity shall be absolutely free from any claim of right by
Debtor, including any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal which
Debtor has or may have under any rule of law, regulation or statute now existing
or hereafter adopted. Upon any such sale or transfer, Secured Party shall have
the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser or transferee thereof
the Collateral so sold or transferred. It shall not be necessary that the
Collateral or any part thereof be present at the location of any such sale or
transfer. Secured Party may, at its discretion, provide for a public sale, and
any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary
business hours and at such place or places as Secured Party may fix in the
notice of such sale. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale
pursuant to any such notice. Secured Party may, without notice or publication,
adjourn any public or private sale by announcement at any time and place fixed
for such sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same
may be so adjourned. In the event any sale or transfer hereunder is not
completed or is defective in the opinion of Secured Party, such sale or transfer
shall not exhaust the rights of Secured Party hereunder, and Secured Party shall
have the right to cause one or more subsequent sales or transfers to be made
hereunder. In the event that any of the Collateral is sold or transferred on
credit, or to be held by Secured Party for future delivery to a purchaser or
transferee, the Collateral so sold or transferred may be retained by Secured
Party until the purchase price or other consideration is paid by the purchaser
or transferee thereof, but in the event that such purchaser or transferee fails
to pay for the Collateral so sold or transferred or to take delivery thereof,
Secured Party shall incur no liability in connection therewith. If only part of
the Collateral is sold or transferred such that the Obligations remain
outstanding (in whole or in part), Secured Party's rights and remedies hereunder
shall not be exhausted, waived or modified, and Secured Party is specifically
empowered to make one or more successive sales or transfers until all the
Collateral shall be sold or transferred and all the Obligations are paid. In
the event that Secured Party elects not to sell the Collateral, Secured Party
retains its rights to lease or otherwise dispose of or utilize the Collateral or
any part or parts thereof in any manner authorized or permitted by law or in
equity, and to apply the proceeds of the same towards payment of the
Obligations. Each and every method of disposition of the Collateral described
in this Section 6.1(c) or in Section 6.1(f) shall constitute disposition in a
commercially reasonable manner.
(d) Take possession of all books and records of Debtor pertaining to
the Collateral. Secured Party shall have the authority to enter upon any real
property or improvements
thereon in order to obtain any such books or records, or any Collateral located
thereon, and remove the same therefrom without liability.
(e) Apply proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral to the
Obligations in any manner elected by Secured Party and permitted by the Code or
otherwise permitted by law or in equity. Such application may include, without
limitation, the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or
other disposition, and the reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses
incurred by Secured Party.
(f) Appoint any person or entity as agent to perform any act or acts
necessary or incident to any sale or transfer by Secured Party of the
Collateral. Additionally, any sale or transfer hereunder may be conducted by an
auctioneer or any officer or agent of Secured Party.
(g) Apply and set-off (1) any deposits of Debtor now or hereafter
held by Secured Party; (2) all claims of Debtor against Secured Party, now or
hereafter existing; (3) any other property, rights or interests of Debtor which
come into the possession or custody or under the control of Secured Party; and
(4) the proceeds of any of the foregoing as if the same were included in the
Collateral. Secured Party agrees to notify Debtor promptly after any such
set-off or application; provided, however, the failure of Secured Party to give
any notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off or application.
(h) Exercise all other rights and remedies permitted by law or in
equity.
Section 6.2 LIABILITY FOR DEFICIENCY. If any sale or other disposition
of Collateral by Secured Party or any other action of Secured Party hereunder
results in reduction of the Obligations, such action will not release Debtor
from its liability to Secured Party for any unpaid Obligations, including costs,
charges and expenses incurred in the liquidation of Collateral, together with
interest thereon, and the same shall be immediately due and payable to Secured
Party at Secured Party's address set forth in the opening paragraph hereof.
Section 6.3 REASONABLE NOTICE. If any applicable provision of any law
requires Secured Party to give reasonable notice of any sale or disposition or
other action, Debtor hereby agrees that five days' prior written notice shall
constitute reasonable notice thereof. Such notice, in the case of public sale,
shall state the time and place fixed for such sale and, in the case of private
sale, the time after which such sale is to be made.
ARTICLE 7
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 7.1 NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given under
or in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be mailed by
first class or express mail, postage prepaid, or sent by telex, telegram,
telecopy or other similar form of rapid written transmission or personally
delivered to the receiving party. All such communications shall be
mailed, sent or delivered at the address respectively indicated in the opening
paragraph hereof or at such other address as either party may have furnished the
other party in writing. Any communication so addressed and mailed shall be
deemed to be given when so mailed, any notice so sent by rapid written
transmission shall be deemed to be given when receipt of such transmission is
acknowledged by the receiving operator or equipment, and any communication so
delivered in person shall be deemed to be given when receipted for or actually
received by Debtor or Secured Party, as the case may be.
Section 7.2 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Secured Party's acceptance of
partial or delinquent payments or any forbearance, failure or delay by Secured
Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed a
waiver of any obligation of Debtor or any Obligor, or of any right, power or
remedy of Secured Party; and no partial exercise of any right, power or remedy
shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof. Secured Party may remedy
any Event of Default hereunder or in connection with the Obligations without
waiving the Event of Default so remedied. Debtor hereby agrees that if Secured
Party agrees to a waiver of any provision hereunder, or an exchange of or
release of the Collateral, or the addition or release of any Obligor or other
person or entity, any such action shall not constitute a waiver of any of
Secured Party's other rights or of Debtor's obligations hereunder. This
Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing executed jointly by
Debtor and Secured Party and may be supplemented only by documents delivered or
to be delivered in accordance with the express terms hereof.
Section 7.3 COPY AS FINANCING STATEMENT. A photocopy or other
reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the
Collateral is sufficient as a financing statement, and the same may be filed
with any appropriate filing authority for the purpose of perfecting Secured
Party's security interest in the Collateral.
Section 7.4 POSSESSION OF COLLATERAL. Secured Party shall be deemed to
have possession of any Collateral in transit to it or set apart for it (or, in
either case, any of its agents, affiliates or correspondents).
Section 7.5 REDELIVERY OF COLLATERAL. If any sale or transfer of
Collateral by Secured Party results in full satisfaction of the Obligations, and
after such sale or transfer and discharge there remains a surplus of proceeds,
Secured Party will deliver to Debtor such excess proceeds in a commercially
reasonable time; provided, however, that Secured Party shall not be liable for
any interest, cost or expense in connection with any delay in delivering such
proceeds to Debtor.
Section 7.6 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION. This Agreement and the
security interest granted hereby shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the State of Texas (except to the extent that the laws
of any other jurisdiction govern the perfection and priority of the security
interests granted hereby). Debtor consents to and submits to in personam
jurisdiction and venue in the state district and county courts of the county
wherein Secured Party's offices are located at the address specified in the
opening paragraph hereof, and in the Federal District Courts of the district
wherein such offices of Secured Party are located. This submission to
jurisdiction is nonexclusive and does not preclude Secured Party from obtaining
jurisdiction over Debtor or the Collateral in any court otherwise having
jurisdiction.
Section 7.7 CONTINUING SECURITY AGREEMENT.
(a) This Agreement shall constitute a continuing security agreement,
and all representations and warranties, covenants and agreements shall, as
applicable, apply to all future as well as existing transactions. Provisions of
this Agreement, unless by their terms exclusive, shall be in addition to other
agreements between the parties.
(b) Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9.505
of the Code, no action taken or omission to act by Secured Party hereunder,
including, without limitation, any action taken or inaction pursuant to Section
6.1, shall be deemed to constitute a retention of the Collateral in satisfaction
of the Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Obligations,
and the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, until Secured Party
shall have applied payments (including, without limitation, collections from
Collateral) towards the Obligations in the full amount then outstanding or until
such subsequent time as is hereinafter provided in Section 7.7(c).
(c) To the extent that any payments on the Obligations or proceeds of
the Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in
possession, receiver or other person or entity under any bankruptcy law, common
law or equitable cause, then to such extent the Obligations so satisfied shall
be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by
Secured Party, and Secured Party's security interests, rights, powers and
remedies hereunder shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, this
Agreement shall be automatically reinstated if it shall theretofore have been
terminated pursuant to Section 7.8.
(d) In the event that the Obligations are structured such that there
are times when no Indebtedness is owing thereunder, this Agreement shall remain
valid and in full force and effect as to all subsequent indebtedness included in
the Obligations, provided Secured Party has not in the interim period executed a
written release or termination statement or returned possession of or reassigned
the Collateral to Debtor.
Section 7.8 TERMINATION. The grant of a security interest hereunder and
all of Secured Party's rights, powers and remedies in connection therewith shall
remain in full force and effect until Secured Party has retransferred and
delivered all Collateral in its possession to Debtor, and executed a written
release or termination statement and reassigned to Debtor without recourse or
warranty any remaining Collateral and all rights conveyed hereby. Upon the
complete payment of the Obligations and the compliance by Debtor with all
covenants and agreements hereof, Secured Party, at the written request and
expense of Debtor, will release, reassign and transfer the Collateral to Debtor
and declare this Agreement to be of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the reimbursement and indemnification provisions of Section 4.10
and the provisions of Section 7.7(c) shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.
Section 7.9 COUNTERPARTS, EFFECTIVENESS. This Agreement may be executed
in two or more counterparts. Each counterpart is deemed an original, but all
such counterparts taken together constitute one and the same instrument. This
Agreement becomes effective upon the execution hereof by Debtor and delivery of
the same to Secured Party, and it is not necessary for Secured Party to execute
any acceptance hereof or otherwise signify or express its acceptance hereof.
Section 7.10 LOCKBOX. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, Debtor shall cause the accounts referenced in the Deposit and
Disbursement Agreement of even date herewith between the Bank, HPC, and Debtor
(the "DEPOSIT AND DISBURSEMENT AGREEMENT") to be deposited in the lockbox
account set forth in the Deposit and Disbursement Agreement. All such accounts
referenced in the Deposit and Disbursement Agreement and the funds deposited in
the lockbox account thereunder shall be disbursed as provided therein. As to
all other accounts referenced herein which are not subject to the Deposit and
Disbursement Agreement, Debtor may use such accounts and the proceeds thereof in
its ordinary course of business until such time as an Event of Default occurs.
