     the part of the Debtor and supplemental rights and remedies in favor of
     Agent (whether under federal law or applicable California law), in each
     case in respect of the Patent Collateral, shall not be deemed a conflict

          2.   Security Interest.

               (a)  Assignment and Grant of Security Interests. As security for
the prompt payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, Debtor hereby

     arising out of any of the Patents and not otherwise described above; and

                    (iv)   all products and Proceeds of any and all of the

<PAGE>

               (b)  Continuing Security Interests. Debtor agrees that this
Agreement shall create continuing security interests in the Patent Collateral
which shall remain in effect until terminated in accordance with Section 17.

               (c)  Incorporation into Loan Agreement. This Agreement shall be
fully incorporated into the Loan Agreement and all understandings, agreements
and provisions contained in the Loan Agreement shall be fully incorporated into
this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Patent Collateral described
in this Agreement shall constitute part of the Collateral in the Loan Agreement.

               (d)  Licenses. Debtor may grant licenses of the Patent Collateral
in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms of the Loan
Agreement.

          3.   Further Assurances; Appointment of Agent as Attorney-in-Fact.
Debtor at its expense shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and
delivered, to Agent any and all documents and instruments, in form and substance
satisfactory to Agent, and take any and all action, which Agent, in the exercise
of its discretion, may request from time to time, to perfect and continue
perfected, maintain the priority of or provide notice of Agent's security
interests in the Patent Collateral and to accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement. If Debtor refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to execute
and deliver, any of the documents it is requested to execute and deliver by
Agent in accordance with the foregoing, Agent shall have the right to, in the
name of Debtor, or in the name of Agent or otherwise, without notice to or
assent by Debtor, and Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent
(and any of Agent's officers or employees or agents designated by Agent) as
Debtor's true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, (i) to
sign the name of Debtor on all or any of such documents or instruments, and
perform all other acts, that Agent, in its reasonable discretion, deems
necessary or advisable in order to perfect or continue perfected, maintain the
priority or enforceability of or provide notice of Agent's security interests
in, the Patent Collateral, and (ii) to execute any and all other documents and
instruments, and to perform any and all acts and things for and on behalf of
Debtor, which Agent, in its reasonable discretion, may deem necessary or
advisable to maintain, preserve and protect the Patent Collateral and to
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including (A) upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, to defend, settle, adjust or
institute any action, suit or proceeding with respect to any Patent Collateral,
(B) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to
assert or retain any rights under any license agreement for any Patent
Collateral, including any rights of Debtor arising under Section 365(n) of the
Bankruptcy Code, and (C) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, to execute any and all applications, documents, papers and
instruments for Agent to use any Patent Collateral, to grant or issue any
exclusive or non-exclusive license with respect to any Patent Collateral, and to
assign, convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of the Patent
Collateral. The power of attorney set forth in this Section 3, being coupled
with an interest, is irrevocable so long as this Agreement shall not have
terminated in accordance with Section 17; provided that the foregoing power of
attorney shall terminate when all of the Secured Obligations have been fully and
finally repaid and performed and the Lender Group's obligation to extend credit
under the Loan

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

Agreement is terminated. The Agent acknowledges that the exercise of the powers
granted in this Section 3 may at some times be subject to the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement.

          4.   Representations and Warranties. Debtor represents and warrants to
each member of the Lender Group, in each case, to the best of its knowledge,
information, and belief, as follows:

               (a)  No Other Patents. A true and correct list of all Patents
owned by Debtor, in whole or in part, is set forth on Schedule A (collectively,
the "Debtor's Patents"). Schedule A also sets forth a true and correct list of
all of the Patents that Debtor holds (by reason of license or otherwise) from a
third party.

               (b)  Validity. Each of the Debtor's Patents listed on Schedule A
is subsisting and has not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in
part, all maintenance fees required to be paid on account of any Patents have
been timely paid for maintaining such Patents in force, and, to the best of
Debtor's knowledge, each of the Patents is valid and enforceable.

               (c)  Title. (i) Debtor has rights in and good and defensible
title to the Patent Collateral in respect of the Patents it owns, (ii) Debtor is
the sole and exclusive owner of such Patent Collateral, free and clear of any
Liens and rights of others (other than Permitted Liens), including licenses
(other than licenses entered into as permitted herein), shop rights and
covenants by Debtor not to sue third persons and (iii) with respect to any
Patent for which Debtor is either a licensor or a licensee pursuant to a license
or licensee agreement regarding such Patent, each such license or licensing
agreement is in full force and effect, such Debtor is not in material default of
any of its obligations thereunder and no other Person is known by such Debtor to
have any rights in or to any of the Patent Collateral, other than (A) the
parties to such licenses or licensing agreements, or (B) in the case of any
non-exclusive license or license agreement entered into by Debtor or any such
licensor regarding such Patent Collateral, the parties to any other such
non-exclusive licenses or license agreements entered into by Debtor or any such
licensor with any other Person.

               (d)  No Infringement. To the best of Debtor's knowledge, (i) no
material infringement or unauthorized use presently is being made of any of the
Patent Collateral by any Person, and (ii) neither the past nor the present use
of the Patent Collateral by Debtor has or does infringe upon or violate any
right, privilege or license agreement of or with any other Person or give such
Person the right to terminate any such license agreement.

               (e)  Powers. Debtor has the unqualified right, power and
authority to pledge and to grant to Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group,
security interests in all of the Patent Collateral pursuant to this Agreement,
and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other Person except as
already obtained.

          5.   Covenants. Debtor covenants that so long as this Agreement shall
be in effect, Debtor shall:

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

               (a)  comply with all of the covenants, terms and provisions of
this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, and the other Loan Documents;

               (b)  promptly give Agent written notice of the occurrence of any
event that could have a material adverse effect on any of the Patents or the
Patent Collateral (except as to such Patent or Patents, which alone or in the
aggregate, the absence of which would not reasonably be expected to materially
impair the conduct of the business), including any petition under the Bankruptcy
Code filed by or against any licensor of any of the Patents for which Debtor is
a licensee, provided, however, that Debtor shall not be required to preserve,
protect and maintain, and may abandon, in whole or in part, any Patent as Debtor
deems appropriate in the exercise of Debtor's reasonable business judgment, so
long as the absence of such Patent or Patents, alone or in the aggregate, would
not reasonably be expected to materially impair the conduct of Debtor's business
or the Patent Collateral;

               (c)  on a continuing basis, make, execute, acknowledge and
deliver, and file and record in the proper filing and recording places, all such
instruments and documents, including appropriate financing and continuation
statements and security agreements, and take all such action as may be necessary
or advisable or may be requested by Agent, in the exercise of its Permitted
Discretion, to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement, or for
assuring, confirming or protecting the grant or perfection of the security
interests granted or purported to be granted hereby, to ensure Debtor's
compliance with this Agreement or to enable Agent to exercise and enforce its
rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Patent Collateral. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, Debtor:

                    (i)    hereby authorizes Agent in its sole discretion if
     Debtor refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to execute and
     deliver, any of the documents it is requested to execute and deliver by
     Agent, to modify this Agreement without first obtaining Debtor's approval
     of or signature to such modification by amending Schedule A hereof to
     include a reference to any right, title or interest in any existing Patent
     Collateral or Patent Collateral acquired or developed by Debtor after the
     execution hereof, or to delete any reference to any right, title or
     interest in any Patent Collateral in which Debtor no longer has or claim
     any right, title or interest; and

                    (ii)   hereby authorizes Agent, in its sole discretion, to
     file one or more financing or continuation statements, or if Debtor refuses
     to execute and deliver, or fails timely to execute and deliver, any such
     amendment thereto it is requested to execute and deliver by Agent, any
     amendments thereto, relative to all or any portion of the Patent
     Collateral, without the signature of Debtor where permitted by law;

               (d)  comply, in all material respects, with all applicable
statutory and regulatory requirements in connection with any and all Patent
Collateral and give such notice of patent, prosecute such material claims, and
do all other acts and take all other measures which, in Debtor's reasonable
business judgment, may be necessary or desirable to preserve, protect and
maintain Patent Collateral and all of Debtor's rights therein, including the
diligent prosecution of any patent application pending as of the date of this
Agreement or thereafter;

                                       -7-

<PAGE>

               (e)  comply with each of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, and not enter into any agreement (for example, a license agreement)
which is inconsistent with the obligations of Debtor under this Agreement
without Agent's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed; and

               (f)  not permit the inclusion in any contract to which Debtor
becomes a party of any provision that could or might impair or prevent the
creation of a security interest in favor of Agent (for the benefit of the Lender
Group) in Debtor's rights and interest in any property included within the
definition of Patent Collateral acquired under such contracts.

          6.   Future Rights. If and when Debtor shall obtain rights to any new
patentable inventions, or become entitled to the benefit of any Patent, or any
reissue, division, continuation, renewal, extension or continuation-in-part of
any Patent or Patent Collateral or any improvement thereof (whether pursuant to
any license or otherwise), the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically
apply thereto and Debtor shall give to Agent prompt notice thereof, within 20
days after obtaining such rights, reissuance, division, continuation, renewal,
extension or any improvement thereof. Debtor shall do all things deemed
necessary or advisable by Agent, in its discretion, to ensure the validity,
perfection, priority and enforceability of the security interests of Agent in
such future acquired Patent Collateral. Debtor hereby authorizes Agent to
modify, amend or supplement the Schedules hereto and to re-execute this
Agreement from time to time on Debtor's behalf and as its attorney-in-fact to
include any future patents which are or become Patent Collateral and to cause
such re-executed Agreement or such modified, amended or supplemented Schedules
to be filed with the PTO.

          7.   Events of Default. The occurrence of any "Event of Default" under
the Loan Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

          8.   Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent shall have
all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Agreement and applicable
law (which rights and remedies are cumulative) with respect to the security
interests in any of the Patent Collateral or any other Collateral. Debtor agrees
that such rights and remedies include the right of Agent as an Agent to sell or
otherwise dispose of its Collateral after default, pursuant to the UCC. Debtor
agrees that Agent shall at all times have such non-exclusive, royalty free
licenses, to the extent permitted by law, for any Patent Collateral that is
reasonably necessary to permit the exercise of any of Agent's rights or remedies
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default with
respect to (among other things) any tangible asset of Debtor in which Agent has
a security interest, including Agent's rights to sell inventory, tooling or
packaging which is acquired by Debtor (or its successor, assignee or trustee in
bankruptcy). In addition to and without limiting any of the foregoing, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall have
the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit, or to take such other
action as Agent, in its discretion, deems necessary or advisable, in the name of
Debtor or Agent, to enforce or protect any of the Patent Collateral, in which
event Debtor shall, at the request of Agent, do any and all lawful acts and
execute any and all documents required by Agent in aid of such enforcement. To
the extent that Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce

                                       -8-

<PAGE>

such Patent Collateral, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default, Debtor, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment,
agrees to use all reasonable measures and diligent efforts, whether by action,
suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement, misappropriation or
violations thereof by others and for that purpose agrees diligently to maintain
any action, suit or proceeding against any Person necessary to prevent such
infringement, misappropriation or violation.

          9.   Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by Debtor and Agent for the benefit of the
Lender Group and their respective successors and assigns.

          10.  Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be
in writing and shall be mailed, sent or delivered in accordance with the Loan
Agreement.

          11.  Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed
and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, except to
the extent that the validity or perfection of the security interests hereunder
in respect of the Patent Collateral are governed by federal law, in which case
such choice of California law shall not be deemed to deprive Agent of such
rights and remedies as may be available under federal law.

          12.  Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, together with the Schedules hereto and thereto, contain the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior drafts and communications relating to such subject matter.
Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be modified, amended or
waived except by the written agreement of the parties, as provided in the Loan
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent may re-execute this Agreement or
modify, amend or supplement the Schedules hereto as provided in Section 6
hereof.

          13.  Severability. If one or more provisions contained in this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any
jurisdiction or with respect to any party, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in such jurisdiction or with respect to such party shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not invalidate or render illegal
or unenforceable any such provision in any other jurisdiction or with respect to
any other party, or any other provisions of this Agreement.

          14.  Counterparts; Telefacsimile Execution. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which 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

                                       -9-

<PAGE>

          15.  Loan Documents. Debtor acknowledges that the rights and remedies
of Agent with respect to the security interests in the Patent Collateral granted
hereby are more fully set forth in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and all such rights and remedies are cumulative.

          16.  No Inconsistent Requirements. Debtor acknowledges that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms and
provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and Debtor
agrees that all such covenants, terms and provisions are cumulative and all
shall be performed and satisfied in accordance with their respective terms.

          17.  Termination. Upon the indefeasible payment in full of the Secured
Obligations, including the cash collateralization, expiration, or cancellation
of all Secured Obligations, if any, consisting of letters of credit, and the
full and final termination of any commitment to extend any financial
accommodations under the Loan Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and
Agent shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such
further action reasonably requested by Debtor and at Debtor's expense as shall
be necessary to evidence termination of the security interests granted by Debtor
to Agent for the benefit of the Lender Group hereunder, including cancellation
