in accordance with GAAP.  Calculations and determinations must be made in
accordance with GAAP.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement
shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13.  All other terms contained in
this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by
the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.  All references to
“Dollars” or “$” are United States Dollars, unless otherwise noted.

 

2.             LOANS AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

 

2.1          Promise to Pay.  Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay
each Lender, the outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans advanced to
Borrower by such Lender and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other
amounts due hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

 

2.2          Term Loans.

 

(a)           Availability.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make term loans to
Borrower on the Effective Date in an aggregate amount of Twenty Seven Million
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($27,500,000) according to each Lender’s Term Loan
Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1.1 hereto (such term loans are hereinafter
referred to singly as a “Term Loan”, and collectively as the “Term Loans”). 
After repayment, no Term Loan may be re-borrowed.

 

(b)           Repayment.  Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest only
in arrears commencing on the first (1st) Payment Date following the Funding Date
of the Term Loan, and continuing on the Payment Date of each successive month
thereafter through and including the Payment Date immediately preceding the
Amortization Date.  Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on the
Payment Date of each month thereafter, Borrower shall make consecutive equal
monthly payments of principal and interest, in arrears, to each Lender, as
calculated by Collateral Agent (which calculations shall be deemed correct
absent manifest error) based upon: (1) the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan,
(2) the effective rate of interest, as determined in Section 2.3(a), and (3) a
repayment schedule equal to thirty (30) months.  All unpaid principal and
accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Term Loan is due and payable in
full on the Maturity Date.  the Term Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with
Sections 2.2(c) and 2.2(d).

 

(c)           Mandatory Prepayments.  If the Term Loans are accelerated
following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay
to Lenders, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata
Share, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term
Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date,
(ii) the Final Payment, (iii) the Prepayment Fee, plus (iv) all other
Obligations that are due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses and interest
at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts. Notwithstanding (but
without duplication with) the foregoing, on the Maturity Date, if the Final
Payment had not previously been paid in full in connection with the prepayment
of the Term Loans in full, Borrower shall pay to Collateral Agent, for payment
to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, the Final
Payment in respect of the Term Loans.  No Prepayment Fee shall be required in
connection with any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 6.5 hereof.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(d)           Permitted Prepayment of Term Loans.  Borrower shall have the
option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Term Loans advanced by the
Lenders under this Agreement, provided Borrower (i) provides written notice to
Collateral Agent of its election to prepay the Term Loans at least ten (10) days
prior to such prepayment, and (ii) pays to the Lenders on the date of such
prepayment, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata
Share, an amount equal to the sum of (A) all outstanding principal of the Term
Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (B)
the Final Payment, (C) the Prepayment Fee, plus (D) all other Obligations that
are due and payable, including Lenders’ Expenses and interest at the Default
Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

 

2.3          Payment of Intrest on the Credit Extensions.

 

(a)           Interest Rate.  Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount
outstanding under the Term Loans shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate
(which rate shall be fixed for the duration of the applicable Term Loan) equal
to the Basic Rate, determined by Collateral Agent on the Funding Date of the
applicable Term Loan, which interest shall be payable monthly in arrears in
accordance with Sections 2.2(b) and 2.3(e). Interest shall accrue on each Term
Loan commencing on, and including, the Funding Date of such Term Loan, and shall
accrue on the principal amount outstanding under such Term Loan through and
including the day on which such Term Loan is paid in full.

 

(b)           Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall accrue interest at a fixed
per annum rate equal to the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto plus five
percentage points (5.00%) (the “Default Rate”).  Payment or acceptance of the
increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted
alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of
Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Collateral
Agent.

 

(c)           360-Day Year.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a three
hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30)
days.

 

(d)           Debit of Accounts.  Collateral Agent may debit (or ACH) any
deposit accounts, maintained by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including
the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments or any other
amounts Borrower owes the Lenders under the Loan Documents when due.  Any such
debits (or ACH activity) shall not constitute a set-off.  Without limiting the
foregoing, Collateral Agent and each Lender shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to promptly notify Borrower of any amounts (other than principal and
interest payments) debited from Borrower’s deposit accounts in respect of this
Agreement.

 

(e)           Payments.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
payments by Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made to the respective
Lender to which such payments are owed, at such Lender’s office in immediately
available funds on the date specified herein. Unless otherwise provided,
interest is payable monthly in arrears on the Payment Date of each month. 
Payments of principal and/or interest received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time are
considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When a
payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next
Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to
accrue until paid. All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any
other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest, and all fees,
expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off,
recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in
immediately available funds.

 

2.4          Secured Promissory Notes.  The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a
Secured Promissory Note or Notes in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (each
a “Secured Promissory Note”), and shall be repayable as set forth in this
Agreement.  Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be
made, on or about the Funding Date of any Term Loan or at the time of receipt of
any payment of principal on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note, an
appropriate notation on such Lender’s Secured Promissory Note Record reflecting
the making of such Term Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such
payment.  The outstanding amount of each Term Loan set forth on such Lender’s
Secured Promissory Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal
amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or
any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender’s Secured Promissory
Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower
under any Secured Promissory Note or any other Loan Document to make payments of
principal of or interest on any

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Secured Promissory Note when due.  Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of
a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its Secured
Promissory Note (and including customary lost note indemnification provisions),
Borrower shall issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Secured Promissory Note in
the same principal amount thereof and of like tenor.

 

2.5          Fees.  Borrower shall pay to Collateral Agent:

 

(a)           Facility Fee.  A fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of Two
Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($275,000.00) to be shared between the
Lenders pursuant to their respective Commitment Percentages, receipt of which
Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges;

 

(b)           Final Payment.  The Final Payment, when due hereunder, to be
shared between the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares;

 

(c)           Prepayment Fee.  The Prepayment Fee, when due hereunder, to be
shared between the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares;
and

 

(d)           Lenders’ Expenses.  All Lenders’ Expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this
Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date, when due.

 

2.6          Withholding.  Payments received by the Lenders from Borrower
hereunder will be made free and clear of any withholding taxes.  Specifically,
however, if at any time any Governmental Authority, applicable law, regulation
or international agreement requires Borrower to make any withholding or
deduction from any such payment or other sum payable hereunder to the Lenders,
Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that the amount due from Borrower with
respect to such payment or other sum payable hereunder will be increased to the
extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such required withholding
or deduction, each Lender receives a net sum equal to the sum which it would
have received had no withholding or deduction been required and Borrower shall
pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority;
provided, that a Lender that shall have become a Lender pursuant to a Lender
Transfer shall be entitled to receive only such additional amounts as such
Lender’s assignor would have been entitled to receive pursuant to this Section
2.6.  Borrower will, upon request, furnish the Lenders with proof reasonably
satisfactory to the Lenders indicating that Borrower has made such withholding
payment; provided, however, that Borrower need not make any withholding payment
if the amount or validity of such withholding payment is contested in good faith
by appropriate and timely proceedings and as to which payment in full is bonded
or reserved against by Borrower.  The agreements and obligations of Borrower
contained in this Section 2.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, to secure the payment and
performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest
in, and pledges to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, the
Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or
arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.  Borrower represents, warrants,
and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all
times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the
Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens that are permitted by the terms of
this Agreement to have priority to Collateral Agent’s Lien.  If Borrower shall
acquire a commercial tort claim (as defined in the Code), Borrower, shall
promptly notify Collateral Agent in a writing signed by Borrower, as the case
may be, of the general details thereof (and further details as may be required
by Collateral Agent) and grant to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of

thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form

repaid in full in cash.  Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other
than inchoate indemnity obligations) and at such time as the Lenders’ obligation

cost and expense of Borrower, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights
therein shall revert to Borrower.

action required to perfect Collateral Agent’s security interests in the

Code.

for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash
and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the
Obligations.  On the Effective Date, or, to the extent not certificated as of
the Effective Date, within ten (10) days of the certification of any Shares, the
certificate or certificates for the Shares will be delivered to Collateral
Agent, accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly executed in blank by
Borrower.  To the extent required by the terms and conditions governing the
Shares, Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of
the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares.  Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder,
Collateral Agent may effect the transfer of any securities included in the
Collateral (including but not limited to the Shares) into the name of Collateral
Agent and cause new (as applicable) certificates representing such securities to
be issued in the name of Collateral Agent or its transferee.  Borrower will
execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions,
as Collateral Agent may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection
of Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Shares.  Unless an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to
exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares and to give consents,
waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be
cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be
inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute
or create any violation of any of such terms.  All such rights to vote and give
consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and
continuance of an Event of Default.

payments due on the Maturity Date or

 

15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8.2          Covenant Default.

 

(a)           Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries fails or neglects to perform
any obligation in Sections 6.2 (Financial Statements, Reports, Certificates),

provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be cured, has failed to
cure the default within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof; provided,
however, that if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the ten
(10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be cured within
such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a
reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional period (which shall not
in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to attempt to cure such default, and within
such reasonable time period the failure to cure the default shall not be deemed
an Event of Default (but no Credit Extensions shall be made during such cure
period).  Grace periods provided under this Section shall not apply, among other
things, to financial covenants or any other covenants set forth in subsection
(a) above;

any of its Subsidiaries maintains a Collateral Account, or (ii) a notice of
lien, levy, or assessment is filed against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
assets by any government agency, and the same under subclauses (i) and

discharged or stayed (whether through the posting of a bond or otherwise);
provided, however, no Credit Extensions shall be made during any fifteen (15)
day cure period; and

 

(b)           (i) any material portion of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’
assets is attached, seized, levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or
receiver, or (ii) any court order enjoins, restrains, or prevents Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries from conducting any part of its business;

 

8.5          Insolvency.  (a) Either (i) Borrower is or becomes or (ii) Borrower
and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are or become Insolvent; (b) Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries begins an Insolvency Proceeding; or (c) an Insolvency
Proceeding is begun against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and not
dismissed or stayed within forty-five (45) days (but no Credit Extensions shall
be made while Borrower or any Subsidiary is Insolvent and/or until any
Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed);

 

8.6          Other Agreements.  There is a default in any agreement to which
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party with a third party or parties
resulting in a right by such third party or parties, whether or not exercised,
to accelerate the maturity of any Indebtedness in an amount in excess of Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) or that could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Change;

payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) (not covered by independent

carrier) shall be rendered against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and shall
remain unsatisfied, unvacated, or unstayed for a period of ten (10) Business
Days after the entry thereof (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made
prior to the satisfaction, vacation, or stay of such judgment, order or decree);

 

16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

8.8          Misrepresentations.  Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any
Person acting for Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries makes any representation,
warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement, any Loan Document
or in any writing delivered to Collateral Agent and/or Lenders or to induce
Collateral Agent and/or the Lenders to enter this Agreement or any Loan
Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in
any material respect when made;

 

8.9          Subordinated Debt.  A default or breach occurs under any agreement
between Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and any creditor of Borrower or any

such an agreement with Collateral Agent or the Lenders breaches any terms of
such agreement;

 

8.10        Governmental Approvals.  Any Governmental Approval shall have been
revoked, rescinded, suspended, modified in an adverse manner, or not renewed in
the ordinary course for a full term and such revocation, rescission, suspension,
modification or non-renewal has resulted in or could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Change; or

 

8.11        Lien Priority.  Any Lien created hereunder or by any other Loan
Document shall at any time fail to constitute a valid and perfected Lien on any
of the Collateral purported to be secured thereby, subject to no prior or equal
Lien, other than Permitted Liens which are permitted to have priority in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

8.12        Royalty Agreements.  A “Purchase Option Event”, as defined in the
Royalty Assignment Agreement, shall have occurred and the Trust shall have
commenced the exercise of the purchase option pursuant to Section 5.07 of the
Royalty Assignment Agreement (or the Trust shall have given written notice to
Borrower of its intention to exercise such purchase option), or any “Event of
Default”, as such term is defined in the Royalty Security Agreement, shall have
occurred and the Trust shall have commenced the exercise of remedies under the
Royalty Security Agreement (or the Trust shall have given written notice to a
Borrower of its intention to exercise such remedies).

 

9.             RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

 

9.1          Rights and Remedies.

 

(a)           Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Collateral Agent may, and at the written direction of any Lender shall,
without notice or demand, do any or all of the following: (i) deliver notice of
the Event of Default to Borrower, (ii) by notice to Borrower declare all
Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in
Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable without
any action by Collateral Agent or the Lenders) or (iii) by notice to Borrower
suspend or terminate the obligations, if any, of the Lenders to advance money or
extend credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other
agreement between Borrower and Collateral Agent and/or the Lenders (but if an
Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all obligations, if any, of the
Lenders to advance money or extend credit for Borrower’s benefit under this
Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Collateral Agent
and/or the Lenders shall be immediately terminated without any action by
Collateral Agent or the Lenders).

 

(b)           Without limiting the rights of Collateral Agent and the Lenders
set forth in Section 9.1(a) above, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent shall have the right at the
written direction of the Required Lenders, without notice or demand, to do any
or all of the following:

 

(i)            foreclose upon and/or sell or otherwise liquidate, the
Collateral;

 

(ii)           apply to the Obligations any (a) balances and deposits of
Borrower that Collateral Agent or any Lender holds or controls, or (b) any
amount held or controlled by Collateral Agent or any Lender owing to or for the
credit or the account of Borrower; and/or

 

17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(iii)          commence and prosecute an Insolvency Proceeding or consent to
Borrower commencing any Insolvency Proceeding.

 

(c)           Without limiting the rights of Collateral Agent and the Lenders
set forth in Sections 9.1(a) and (b) above, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent shall have the right,
without notice or demand, to do any or all of the following:

 

(i)            settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account
Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Collateral Agent considers
advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Collateral Agent’s security
interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;

 

(ii)           make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or
reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the
Collateral.  Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Collateral Agent requests
and make it available in a location as Collateral Agent reasonably designates. 
Collateral Agent may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and
maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest,
or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security
interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Collateral Agent a
license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any
of Collateral Agent’s rights or remedies;

 

(iii)          ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare
for sale, and/or advertise for sale, the Collateral.  Collateral Agent is hereby
granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without
charge, Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ labels, patents, copyrights,
mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks,
service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to
the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling
any Collateral and, in connection with Collateral Agent’s exercise of its rights
under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ rights under
all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Collateral Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders;

 

(iv)          place a “hold” on any account maintained with Collateral Agent or
the Lenders and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order,
or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar
agreements providing control of any Collateral;

 

(v)           demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books;

 

(vi)          appoint a receiver to seize, manage and realize any of the
Collateral, and such receiver shall have any right and authority as any
competent court will grant or authorize in accordance with any applicable law,
including any power or authority to manage the business of Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries; and

 

(vii)         subject to clauses 9.1(a) and (b), exercise all rights and
remedies available to Collateral Agent and each Lender under the Loan Documents
or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including
disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9.1 to the contrary, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default, Collateral Agent shall have the right to
exercise any and all remedies referenced in this Section 9.1 without the written
consent of Required Lenders following the occurrence of an Exigent
Circumstance.  As used in the immediately preceding sentence, “Exigent
Circumstance” means any event or circumstance that, in the reasonable judgment
of Collateral Agent, imminently threatens the ability of Collateral Agent to
realize upon all or any material portion of the Collateral, such as, without
limitation, fraudulent removal, concealment, or abscondment thereof, destruction
or material waste thereof, or failure of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
after reasonable demand to maintain or reinstate adequate casualty insurance
coverage, or which, in the judgment of Collateral Agent, could reasonably be
expected to result in a material diminution in value of the Collateral.

 

9.2          Power of Attorney.  Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Collateral
Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s or any of its
Subsidiaries’ name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign

 

18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ name on any invoice or bill of lading for
any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes
and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on
terms Collateral Agent determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all
claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien,
charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the
Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to
terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name
of Collateral Agent or a third party as the Code or any applicable law permits. 
Borrower hereby appoints Collateral Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign
Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ name on any documents necessary to
perfect or continue the perfection of Collateral Agent’s security interest in
the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all
Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in
full and Collateral Agent and the Lenders are under no further obligation to
make Credit Extensions hereunder.  Collateral Agent’s foregoing appointment as
Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ attorney in fact, and all of Collateral
Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all
Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid
and performed and Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ obligation to provide
Credit Extensions terminates.

 

9.3          Protective Payments.  If Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries fail
to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium
thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, Collateral Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and
all amounts so paid by Collateral Agent are Lenders’ Expenses and immediately
due and payable, bearing interest at the Default Rate, and secured by the
Collateral.  Collateral Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower
with notice of Collateral Agent obtaining such insurance or making such payment
at the time it is obtained or paid or within a reasonable time thereafter.  No
such payments by Collateral Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar
payments in the future or Collateral Agent’s waiver of any Event of Default.

 

9.4          Application of Payments and Proceeds.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, (a) Borrower irrevocably waives the right to
direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter
received by Collateral Agent from or on behalf of Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrower on
the one hand and Collateral Agent and Lenders on the other, Collateral Agent
shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and
all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as Collateral Agent
may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Collateral Agent,
and (b) the proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon all or any part
of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to the Lenders’ Expenses; second, to
accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which,
but for the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued
on such amounts); third, to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding;
and fourth, to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrower owing to
Collateral Agent or any Lender under the Loan Documents.  Any balance remaining
shall be delivered to Borrower or to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive
such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.  In carrying
out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order
provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding
category, and (y) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any
particular category shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of
amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category.  Any
reference in this Agreement to an allocation between or sharing by the Lenders
of any right, interest or obligation “ratably,” “proportionally” or in similar
terms shall refer to Pro Rata Share unless expressly provided otherwise. 
Collateral Agent, or if applicable, each Lender, shall promptly remit to the
other Lenders such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable repayment of
each Lender’s portion of any Term Loan and the ratable distribution of interest,
fees and reimbursements paid or made by Borrower.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a Lender receiving a scheduled payment shall not be responsible for
determining whether the other Lenders also received their scheduled payment on
such date; provided, however, if it is later determined that a Lender received
more than its ratable share of scheduled payments made on any date or dates,
then such Lender shall remit to Collateral Agent or other Lenders such sums as
may be necessary to ensure the ratable payment of such scheduled payments, as
instructed by Collateral Agent.  If any payment or distribution of any kind or
character, whether in cash, properties or securities, shall be received by a
Lender in excess of its ratable share, then the portion of such payment or
distribution in excess of such Lender’s ratable share shall be received by such
Lender in trust for and shall be promptly paid over to the other Lender for
application to the payments of amounts due on the other Lenders’ claims.  To the
extent any payment for the account of Borrower is required to be returned

 

19

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

as a voidable transfer or otherwise, the Lenders shall contribute to one another
as is necessary to ensure that such return of payment is on a pro rata basis. 
If any Lender shall obtain possession of any Collateral, it shall hold such
Collateral for itself and as agent and bailee for Collateral Agent and other
Lenders for purposes of perfecting Collateral Agent’s security interest therein.

 

9.5          Liability for Collateral.  So long as Collateral Agent and the
Lenders comply with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of
the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Collateral Agent and
the Lenders, Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall not be liable or responsible
for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the
Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or
default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person.  Borrower bears
all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

 

9.6          No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  Failure by Collateral Agent or any
Lender, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect,
or diminish any right of Collateral Agent or any Lender thereafter to demand
strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder
shall be effective unless signed by Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders
and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is
given.  The rights and remedies of Collateral Agent and the Lenders under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative.  Collateral Agent and the
Lenders have all rights and remedies provided under the Code, any applicable
law, by law, or in equity.  The exercise by Collateral Agent or any Lender of
one right or remedy is not an election, and Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s
waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  Collateral Agent’s
or any Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or
acquiescence.

 

9.7          Demand Waiver.  Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment,
notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement,
extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and
guarantees held by Collateral Agent or any Lender on which Borrower or any
Subsidiary is liable.

11.          CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

 

New York law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of
conflicts of law.  Borrower, Lenders and Collateral Agent each submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in the City of New York,
Borough of Manhattan.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE
LENDERS SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST BORROWER
OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHICH COLLATERAL AGENT
AND THE LENDERS (IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9.1) DEEM
NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR TO OTHERWISE ENFORCE
COLLATERAL AGENT’S AND THE LENDERS’ RIGHTS AGAINST BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY. 
Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any
action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any
objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper
venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal
or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court.  Borrower hereby
waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in
such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and
other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower
at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by Borrower in accordance
with, Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed
completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or
three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, first class, registered or
certified mail return receipt requested, proper postage prepaid.

 

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER, COLLATERAL AGENT,
AND THE LENDERS EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF
ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY
CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER
CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH PARTY TO ENTER INTO THIS
AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

 

12.          GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

12.1        Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit
of the successors and permitted assigns of each party.  Borrower may not
transfer, pledge or assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it

Documents shall require the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (such
approved assignee, an “Approved Lender”).  Borrower and Collateral Agent shall

(collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any other party in connection with; related
to; following; or arising from, out of or under, the transactions contemplated

hereby further indemnifies, defends and holds each Indemnified Person harmless
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of

not such Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto and including
any such proceeding initiated by or on behalf of Borrower, and the reasonable
expenses of investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar

of or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the use or
intended use of the proceeds of the loan proceeds except for liabilities,

the Lenders in the preparation of information relating to the financial affairs
of Borrower as any prospective participant or assignee of a Term Loan Commitment

Credit Extensions hereunder.  Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent
for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting
Credit Extensions hereunder.  Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and
severally obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made hereunder, regardless of
which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower
hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.  Each Borrower waives (a) any
suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law,
and (b) any right to require Collateral Agent or any Lender to: (i) proceed
against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any

contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other
Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable
for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the
Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that
it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the
Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the
Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.  Any agreement
providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited
under this Section shall be null and void.  If any payment is made to a Borrower
in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust
for Collateral Agent and the Lenders and such payment shall be promptly
delivered to Collateral Agent for application to the Obligations, whether
matured or unmatured.

Agreements are terminated or (y) the Royalty Agreements are amended to permit
Borrower to grant a security interest in the Royalty Collateral to Lender, then
the grant of security interest under this Agreement shall automatically extend
to, and the term “Collateral” shall automatically include, the Royalty
Collateral, the Royalty Deposit Accounts and the Royalty Lockbox Account. 
Further, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the
grant of security interest herein shall not extend to and the term “Collateral”
shall not include:  (i) more than sixty five percent (65%) of the issued and
outstanding voting capital stock of any Subsidiary of Borrower that is
incorporated or organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States or any
state or territory thereof, if Debtor demonstrates to Collateral Agent’s
reasonable satisfaction that a pledge of more than sixty five percent (65%) of
the Shares of such Foreign Subsidiary creates a present and existing adverse tax
consequence to Borrower under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (ii) any
“intent-to-use” trademarks at all times prior to the 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, and (iii) any
(x) equipment subject to a Lien described in clause (c) of the definition of
Permitted Liens or (y) license or contract, in each case if the granting of a
Lien in such equipment, license or contract is prohibited by or would constitute
a default under the agreement governing such equipment, license or contract (but
(A) only to the extent such prohibition is enforceable under applicable law and
(B) other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective
pursuant to Section 9-407(a) (or any other Section) of Division 9 of the Code);
provided that upon the termination, lapsing or expiration of any such
prohibition, such equipment, license or contract, as applicable, shall
automatically be subject to the security interest granted in favor of Lender
hereunder and become part of the “Collateral.”

 

Pursuant to the terms of a certain negative pledge arrangement with Collateral
Agent and the Lenders, Borrower has agreed not to encumber any of its
Intellectual Property except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

EXHIBIT A-2

 

Description of Collateral

 

The Collateral consists of all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to
the following personal property:

 

All goods, Accounts (including health-care receivables), Equipment, Inventory,
contract rights or rights to payment of money, leases, license agreements,
franchise agreements, General Intangibles (except as noted below), commercial
tort claims, documents, instruments (including any promissory notes), chattel
paper (whether tangible or electronic), cash, deposit accounts and other
Collateral Accounts, all certificates of deposit, fixtures, letters of credit
rights (whether or not the letter of credit is evidenced by a writing),
securities, and all other investment property, supporting obligations, and
financial assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, wherever located; and

 

All Borrower’s Books relating to the foregoing, and any and all claims, rights
and interests in any of the above and all substitutions for, additions,
attachments, accessories, accessions and improvements to and replacements,
products, proceeds and insurance proceeds of any or all of the foregoing.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include any Intellectual
Property; provided, however, the Collateral shall include all Accounts and all
proceeds of Intellectual Property.  If a judicial authority (including a U.S.
Bankruptcy Court) would hold that a security interest in the underlying
Intellectual Property is necessary to have a security interest in such Accounts
and such property that are proceeds of Intellectual Property, then the
Collateral shall automatically, and effective as of the Effective Date, include
the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of
Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Accounts and such other property of
Borrower that are proceeds of the Intellectual Property.  Further,
notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the grant of
security interest herein shall not extend to and the term “Collateral” shall not
include: (i) more than sixty five percent (65%) of the issued and outstanding
voting capital stock of any Subsidiary of Borrower that is incorporated or
organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or
territory thereof, if Debtor demonstrates to Collateral Agent’s reasonable
satisfaction that a pledge of more than sixty five percent (65%) of the Shares
of such Foreign Subsidiary creates a present and existing adverse tax
consequence to Borrower under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (ii) any
“intent-to-use” trademarks at all times prior to the 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, and (iii) any
(x) equipment subject to a Lien described in clause (c) of the definition of
Permitted Liens or (y) license or contract, in each case if the granting of a
Lien in such equipment, license or contract is prohibited by or would constitute
a default under the agreement governing such equipment, license or contract (but
(A) only to the extent such prohibition is enforceable under applicable law and
(B) other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective
pursuant to Section 9-407(a) (or any other Section) of Division 9 of the Code);
provided that upon the termination, lapsing or expiration of any such
prohibition, such equipment, license or contract, as applicable, shall
automatically be subject to the security interest granted in favor of Lender
hereunder and become part of the “Collateral.”

 

Pursuant to the terms of a certain negative pledge arrangement with Collateral
Agent and the Lenders, Borrower has agreed not to encumber any of its
Intellectual Property except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement.

EXHIBIT A TO UCC FINANCING STATEMENT

 

Description of Collateral

 

The Collateral consists of all of Debtor’s right, title and interest in and to
the following personal property:

 

All goods, Accounts (including health-care receivables), Equipment, Inventory,
contract rights or rights to payment of money, leases, license agreements,
franchise agreements, General Intangibles (except as noted below), commercial
tort claims, documents, instruments (including any promissory notes), chattel
paper (whether tangible or electronic), cash, deposit accounts and other
Collateral Accounts, all certificates of deposit, fixtures, letters of credit
rights (whether or not the letter of credit is evidenced by a writing),
securities, and all other investment property, supporting obligations, and
financial assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, wherever located; and

 

All Borrower’s Books relating to the foregoing, and any and all claims, rights
and interests in any of the above and all substitutions for, additions,
attachments, accessories, accessions and improvements to and replacements,
products, proceeds and insurance proceeds of any or all of the foregoing.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include any Intellectual
Property; provided, however, the Collateral shall include all Accounts and all
proceeds of Intellectual Property.    If a judicial authority (including a U.S.
Bankruptcy Court) would hold that a security interest in the underlying
Intellectual Property is necessary to have a security interest in such Accounts
and such property that are proceeds of Intellectual Property, then the
Collateral shall automatically, and effective as of the Effective Date, include
the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of
Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Accounts and such other property of
Debtor that are proceeds of the Intellectual Property.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, so long as and to the extent that the terms and conditions of the
Royalty Agreements prohibit Debtor from granting a security interest in the
Royalty Collateral to Lender (or so long as a default under any Royalty
Agreement would result from such grant to Lender), the grant of security
interest under this Agreement shall not extend to and the term “Collateral”
shall not include (i) the Royalty Collateral and (ii) any Royalty Deposit
Accounts or the royalty Lockbox Account; provided, however, if (x) the Royalty
Agreements are terminated or (y) the Royalty Agreements are amended to permit
Debtor to grant a security interest in the Royalty Collateral to Lender, then
the grant of security interest under this Agreement shall automatically extend
to, and the term “Collateral” shall automatically include, the Royalty
Collateral, the Royalty Deposit Accounts and the Royalty Lockbox Account. 
Further, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the
grant of security interest herein shall not extend to and the term “Collateral”
shall not include: (i) more than sixty five percent (65%) of the issued and
outstanding voting capital stock of any Subsidiary of Debtor that is
incorporated or organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States or any
state or territory thereof, if Debtor demonstrates to Collateral Agent’s
reasonable satisfaction that a pledge of more than sixty five percent (65%) of
the Shares of such Foreign Subsidiary creates a present and existing adverse tax
consequence to Debtor under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (ii) any
“intent-to-use” trademarks at all times prior to the 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, (iii) any
(x) equipment subject to a Lien described in clause (c) of the definition of
Permitted Liens or (y) license or contract, in each case if the granting of a
Lien in such equipment, license or contract is prohibited by or would constitute
a default under the agreement governing such equipment, license or contract (but
(A) only to the extent such prohibition is enforceable under applicable law and
(B) other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective
pursuant to Section 9-407(a) (or any other Section) of Division 9 of the Code);
provided that upon the termination, lapsing or expiration of any such
prohibition, such equipment, license or contract, as applicable, shall
automatically be subject to the security interest granted in favor of Lender
hereunder and become part of the “Collateral.”

 

Pursuant to the terms of a certain negative pledge arrangement with Collateral
Agent and the Lenders, Debtor has agreed not to encumber any of its Intellectual
Property.

 

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed in the
Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York as in effect from
time to time (the “Code”) or, if not defined in the Code, then in the Loan and
Security Agreement by and between Debtor, Secured Party and the other Lenders
party thereto (as modified, amended and/or restated from time to time).
