first use thereof, whether by the actual use thereof in commerce, the recording
of a statement of use with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or
otherwise, but only to the extent the granting of a security interest in such
“intent to use” trademarks would be contrary to applicable law; and (viii) any
contract, instrument or chattel paper in which Grantor has any right, title or
interest if and to the extent such contract, instrument or chattel paper
includes a provision containing a restriction on assignment such that the
creation of a security interest in the right, title or interest of Grantor
therein would be prohibited and would, in and of itself, cause or result in a
default thereunder enabling another person party to such contract, instrument or
chattel paper to enforce any remedy with respect thereto; provided, however,
that the foregoing exclusion shall not apply if (A) such prohibition has been
waived or such other person has otherwise consented to the creation hereunder of
a security interest in such contract, instrument or chattel paper, or (B) such
prohibition would be rendered ineffective pursuant to Sections 9-407(a) or
9-408(a) of the UCC, as applicable and as then in effect in any relevant
jurisdiction, or any other applicable law (including the Bankruptcy Code) or
principles of equity); provided further that immediately upon the
ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any such provision, the term
“Collateral” shall include, and Grantor shall be deemed to have granted a
security interest in, all its rights, title and interests in and to such
contract, instrument or chattel paper as if such provision had never been in
effect; and provided further that the foregoing exclusion shall in no way be
construed so as to limit, impair or otherwise affect Secured Party’s
unconditional continuing security interest in and to all rights, title and
interests of Grantor in or to any payment obligations or other rights to receive
monies due or to become due under any such contract, instrument or chattel paper
and in any such monies and other proceeds of such contract, instrument or
chattel paper.

2.           Covenants and Warranties.  Grantor represents, warrants, covenants
and agrees as follows:
 
(a)           Grantor is now the sole owner of the Collateral, as long as a
current consent and waiver is in effect from Innovacyn, Inc. pursuant to Section
4.1(g) of the Loan and Security Agreement,except for Permitted Liens;
 
(b)           During the term of this Agreement, Grantor will not transfer or
otherwise encumber any interest in the Collateral, except for Permitted Liens;
 
(c)           To its knowledge, each of the Patents is valid and enforceable,
and no part of the Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole
or in part, and no claim has been made that any part of the Collateral violates
the rights of any third party;
 
(d)           Grantor shall deliver to Secured Party within thirty (30) days of
the last day of each fiscal quarter, a report signed by Grantor, in form
reasonably acceptable to Secured Party, listing any applications or
registrations that Grantor has made or filed in respect of any patents,
copyrights or trademarks and the status of any outstanding applications or
registrations.  Grantor shall promptly advise Secured Party of any material
change in the composition of the Collateral, including but not limited to any
subsequent ownership right of the Grantor in or to any Trademark, Patent or
Copyright not specified in this Agreement;
 
(e)           Grantor shall use reasonable commercial efforts to (i) protect,
defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of the Trademarks, Patents
and Copyrights (ii) detect infringements of the Trademarks, Patents and

intellectual property rights listed on Exhibits A, B and C hereto within
thirty (30) days of the date of this Agreement; and (ii) those additional
intellectual property rights developed or acquired by Grantor from time to time
in connection with any product or service, prior to the sale or licensing of
such product or the rendering of such service to any third party (including
without limitation revisions or additions to the intellectual property rights
listed on such Exhibits A, B and C), except with respect to such rights that
Grantor determines in its sole but reasonable commercial judgment need not be
registered to protect its own business interests.  Grantor shall, from time to
time, execute and file such other instruments, and take such further actions as
Secured Party may reasonably request from time to time to perfect or continue
the perfection of Secured Party’s interest in the Collateral.  Grantor shall
give Secured Party notice of all such applications or registrations; and
 
(g)           Grantor shall not enter into any agreement that would materially
impair or conflict with Grantor’s obligations hereunder without Secured Party’s
prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.  Grantor shall not permit the inclusion in any material contract to
which it becomes a party of any provisions that could or might in any way
prevent the creation of a security interest in Grantor’s rights and interests in
any property included within the definition of the Collateral acquired under
such contracts.
