AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that, so long as any credit under the Loan Agreement shall be available and until full and final payment of the Guarantor Obligations, such Guarantor shall do all of the following:

4.1 Accounting System. Maintain a system of accounting that enables such Guarantor to produce and maintain records pertaining to the Collateral that contain information as from time to time reasonably may be requested by Secured Party. Such Guarantor also shall keep an inventory reporting system that shows all additions, sales, claims, returns, and allowances with respect to the Inventory.

4.2 Collateral Reporting. Provide Secured Party with such reports as to the Collateral as Secured Party may request in its Permitted Discretion and consistent with the collateral reporting obligations under Section 6.2 of the Loan Agreement.

4.3 Return. Cause returns and allowances, as between such Guarantor and its Account Debtors, to be on the same basis and in accordance with the usual customary practices of such Guarantor, as they exist at the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement. If, at a time when no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to such Guarantor, such Guarantor promptly shall determine the reason for such return and, if such Guarantor accepts such return, issue a credit memorandum (with a copy to be sent to Secured Party) in the appropriate amount to such Account Debtor. If, at a time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to such Guarantor, such Guarantor promptly shall determine the reason for such return and, if Secured Party consents (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), issue a credit memorandum (with a copy to be sent to Secured Party) in the appropriate amount to such Account Debtor.

4.4 Maintenance of Properties. Maintain and preserve all of its properties which are necessary in the proper conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and comply at all times with the provisions of all leases to which it is a party as lessee so as to prevent any loss or forfeiture thereof or thereunder; provided that such Guarantor may terminate any existing leases or enter into new leases with Secured Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

4.5 Taxes. Cause all assessments and taxes, whether real, personal, or otherwise, due or payable by, or imposed, levied, or assessed against such Guarantor or any of its assets to be paid in full, before delinquency or before the expiration of any extension period, except to the extent that the validity of such assessment or tax shall be the subject of a Permitted Protest. Such Guarantor will make timely payment or deposit of all tax payments and withholding taxes required of it by applicable laws, including those laws concerning F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A., state disability, and local, state, and federal income taxes, and will, upon request, furnish Secured Party with proof satisfactory to Secured Party indicating that such Guarantor has made such payments or deposits. Such Guarantor shall deliver satisfactory evidence of payment of applicable excise taxes in each jurisdiction in which such Guarantor is required to pay any such excise tax.

-14-

4.6 Insurance.

(a) At such Guarantor’s expense, maintain insurance respecting its property and assets wherever located, covering loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, and all other hazards and risks as ordinarily are insured against by other Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses. Such Guarantor also shall maintain “extra expense”, public liability, and product liability insurance, as well as insurance against larceny, embezzlement, and criminal misappropriation. All such policies of insurance shall be in such amounts and with such insurance companies as are reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party. Such Guarantor shall deliver copies of all such policies to Secured Party with a satisfactory lender’s loss payable endorsement naming Secured Party as sole loss payee or additional insured, as appropriate. Each policy of insurance or endorsement shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give not less than 30 days prior written notice to Secured Party in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever.

(b) Such Guarantor shall give Secured Party prompt notice of any material loss covered by such insurance. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the exclusive right to adjust any losses payable under any such insurance policies, without any liability to such Guarantor whatsoever in respect of such adjustments. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any monies received as payment for any loss under any insurance policy mentioned above (other than liability insurance policies) or as payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent domain, shall be paid over to Secured Party to be applied to the payment of the Guarantor Obligations.

(c) Such Guarantor shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained under this Section 4.6, unless Secured Party is included thereon as named insured with the loss payable to Secured Party under a lender’s loss payable endorsement or its equivalent. Such Guarantor immediately shall notify Secured Party whenever such separate insurance is taken out, specifying the insurer thereunder and full particulars as to the policies evidencing the same, and copies of such policies promptly shall be provided to Secured Party.

4.7 Location of Inventory and Equipment. Keep the Inventory, if any, and Equipment only at the locations identified on Schedule 3.3; provided, however, that such Guarantor may amend Schedule 3.3 so long as such amendment occurs by written notice to Secured Party not less than 30 days prior to the date on which Inventory or Equipment is moved to such new location, so long as such new location is within the continental United States or Canada, and so long as, at the time of such written notification, such Guarantor provides any financing statements or fixture filings necessary to perfect and continue perfected Secured Party’s Liens on such assets and also provides to Secured Party a Collateral Access Agreement.

4.8 Intellectual

Property Rights.

(a) Such Guarantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership interest in any Intellectual Property Right which is not now a part of the Collateral, (i) any such Intellectual Property Right shall automatically become Collateral and (ii) with respect to any ownership

-15-

interest in any Intellectual Property Right that such Guarantor should obtain, it shall give prompt written notice thereof to Secured Party in accordance with Section 8 hereof. Such Guarantor authorizes Secured Party to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 3.9(a) (and will cooperate reasonably with Secured Party in effecting any such amendment) to include any Intellectual Property Right which becomes part of the Collateral under this Section.

(b) With respect to material Intellectual Property Rights, such Guarantor agrees, subject to the last sentence of this subsection, to take all necessary steps, including, without limitation, making all necessary payments and filings in connection with registration, maintenance, and renewal of copyrights, trademarks, and patents in the U.S. Copyright Office, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, any other appropriate government agencies in foreign jurisdictions or in any court, to maintain each such Intellectual Property Right. Such Guarantor agrees to take corresponding steps with respect to each new or acquired Intellectual Property Right to which it is now or later becomes entitled. Any expenses incurred in connection with such activities shall be borne solely by such Guarantor. Such Guarantor shall not discontinue use of or otherwise abandon, or fail to register, any Intellectual Property Right without the written consent of Secured Party, unless such Guarantor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such registration is not desirable in the conduct of such Guarantor’s business and that the loss thereof will not cause a Material Adverse Change, in which case, such Guarantor will give notice of any such abandonment or failure to register same to Secured Party pursuant to the terms of Section 8 hereof.

(c) Such Guarantor will continue to take all actions reasonably necessary to protect such Guarantor’s Intellectual Property Rights, including, without limitation, such steps as are set forth in Sections 4.8(a) and (b) above. Such Guarantor further agrees to give Secured Party prompt written notice in accordance with Section 8 hereof if such Guarantor enters into any agreements after the Closing Date pursuant to which it grants any right to a third party to use or access the source code of any computer software programs or applications of which such Guarantor is the owner or licensee. Such Guarantor authorizes Secured Party to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 3.9(b) (and will cooperate reasonably with Secured Party in effecting any such amendment) to include any such additional license grant(s).

(d) Such Guarantor agrees to notify Secured Party promptly and in writing if it learns (i) that any item of the Intellectual Property Rights contained on Schedule 3.9(a) may be determined to have become abandoned or (ii) of any adverse determination or the institution of any proceeding (including, without limitation, the institution of any proceeding in the U.S. Copyright Office, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and any other appropriate government agencies in foreign jurisdictions, or any court) regarding any item of the Intellectual Property Rights that would cause a Material Adverse Change.

(e) In the event that such Guarantor becomes aware that any item of the General Intangibles is infringed or misappropriated by a third party, such Guarantor shall promptly notify Secured Party and shall take such actions as such Guarantor or Secured Party deems appropriate under the circumstances to protect such General Intangibles, including, without limitation, suing for infringement or misappropriation and for an injunction against such infringement or misappropriation, unless any such infringement or misappropriation would not

-16-

cause a Material Adverse Change. Any expense incurred in connection with such activities shall be borne solely by such Guarantor.

(f) Such Guarantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership interest in, or license of, material Copyrights after the Closing Date, it shall, promptly after such acquisition, file applications and take any and all other actions reasonably necessary to register all such Copyrights in good faith in accordance with the procedures and regulations of the U.S. Copyright Office (or any similar office of any other jurisdiction in which Copyrights are used).

5. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

If any Guarantor fails to pay when due and payable, or when declared due and payable, all or any portion of the Guarantor Obligations (whether of principal, interest (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts), fees and charges due and payable to Lender, reimbursement of Lender Expenses, or other amounts constituting Guarantor Obligations), then this shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”) under this Agreement.

6. LENDER’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

6.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an Event of Default, Secured Party (at its election but without notice of its election and without demand) may do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by each Guarantor:

(a) Declare all Guarantor Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable;

(b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, under any of the Loan Documents, or under any other agreement between Borrower and Secured Party;

(c) Terminate this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents as to any future liability or obligation of Secured Party, but without affecting any of Secured Party’s Liens in the Collateral and without affecting the Guarantor Obligations;

(d) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Secured Party considers advisable, and in such cases, Secured Party will credit the Loan Accounts with only the net amounts received by Secured Party in payment of such disputed Accounts after deducting all Lender Expenses incurred or expended in connection therewith;

(e) Cause Guarantors to hold all returned Inventory in trust for Secured Party, segregate all returned Inventory from all other assets of Guarantors or in Guarantors’ possession and conspicuously label said returned Inventory as the property of Secured Party;

(f) Without notice to or demand upon Guarantors, make such payments and do such acts as Secured Party considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in

-17-

the Collateral. Each Guarantor agrees to assemble the Collateral if Secured Party so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Secured Party at a place that Secured Party may designate which is reasonably convenient to both parties. Each Guarantor authorizes Secured Party to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien that in Secured Party’s determination appears to conflict with Secured Party’s Liens and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith and to charge Borrower’s Loan Accounts therefor. With respect to any of Guarantors’ owned or leased premises, each Guarantor hereby grants Secured Party a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Secured Party’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

(g) Without notice to Guarantors (such notice being expressly waived), and without constituting a retention of any collateral in satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the Code), set off and apply to the Guarantor Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Guarantors held by Secured Party, or (ii) Indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor held by Secured Party;

(h) Hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits of any Guarantor held by Secured Party to secure the full and final repayment of all of the Guarantor Obligations;

(i) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Each Guarantor hereby grants to Secured Party a license or other right to use, without charge, such Guarantor’s labels, patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and Guarantors’ rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Secured Party’s benefit;

(j) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Guarantors’ premises) as Secured Party determines is commercially reasonable. It is not necessary that the Collateral be present at any such sale;

(k) Secured Party shall give notice of the disposition of the Collateral as follows:

(i) Secured Party shall give the applicable Guarantor a notice in writing of the time and place of public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other than a public sale is to be made of the Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made; and

(ii) The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the applicable Guarantor as provided in Section 8, at least 10 days before the earliest time of disposition set forth in the notice; no notice needs to be given prior to the

-18-

disposition of any portion of the Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market;

(l) Secured Party may credit bid and purchase at any public sale;

(m) Secured Party may seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may seek the appointment of such a receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing;

(n) Secured Party shall have all other rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity pursuant to any other Loan Documents; and

(o) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Guarantors. Any excess will be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third Persons, by Secured Party to the applicable Guarantor.

6.2 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of Secured Party under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Secured Party shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Secured Party of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Secured Party of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Secured Party shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

7. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

7.1 Demand; Protest. Each Guarantor waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Secured Party on which any such Guarantor may in any way be liable.

7.2 Lender’s Liability for Collateral. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Secured Party complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, Secured Party shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Guarantors.

7.3 Indemnification. Each Guarantor shall jointly and severally pay, indemnify, defend, and hold Lender-Related Persons and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, and damages, and all reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements and other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon,

-19-

or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the Collateral or the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or administration of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and (b) with respect to any investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document to which such Guarantor is a party, or the Collateral, or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Guarantor shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 7.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Guaranty and the repayment of the Guarantor Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which Guarantors were required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Guarantors with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

8. NOTICES.

10. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which any Guarantor and Secured Party are parties thereto, and no consent with respect to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Secured Party and each such Guarantor and then any such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

10.2 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Secured Party to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which any Guarantor and Secured Party are parties thereto, or delay by Secured Party in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Secured Party will be

-21-

effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Secured Party on any occasion shall affect or diminish Secured Party’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by any Guarantor of any provision of this Agreement. Secured Party’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which any Guarantor and Secured Party are parties thereto will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Secured Party may have.

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

11.1 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by all Guarantors and Secured Party.

11.2 Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

11.3 Interpretation. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against Secured Party or any Guarantor, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.

11.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

11.5 Counterparts; Telefacsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document to which any Guarantor and Secured Party are parties thereto mutatis mutandis.

11.6 Revival and Reinstatement of Guarantor Obligations. If the incurrence or payment of the Guarantor Obligations by any Guarantor or the transfer to Secured Party of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (collectively, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if Secured Party is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that Secured Party is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of Secured Party related thereto, the liability of such Guarantor

-22-

automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

11.7 Integration. This Agreement, together with the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which Guarantors and Secured Party are parties thereto, reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

11.8 Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that no Guarantor may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without Secured Party’s prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by Secured Party shall release any Guarantor from its Guarantor Obligations.

11.9 Additional Subsidiary. If an Additional Subsidiary (as defined in the Loan Agreement) is required pursuant to Section 6.19 of the Loan Agreement to enter into this Agreement, then such Additional Subsidiary shall become a party to this Agreement (and bound by all of the provisions hereof as a “Guarantor” hereunder) by executing a counterpart signature page hereto and delivering the same to Secured Party.
