      express condition of Lender agreeing to make additional loans to Simclar and
      SIT, the Lender required, *inter
      alia* ,
      that
      Grantors provide additional security for the performance of all of the

      in accordance with the terms of that certain Second Amended and Restated General

      additional amounts under the Facilities Letters, and Lender is amenable to
      such
      amendment and restatement in accordance with the terms set forth herein;
      and




Each
      Grantor acknowledges that it has benefited from the loans already extended
      by
      the Lender to Simclar pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, and that
      is
      willing to derive further benefit from the funding by Lender; and




It
      is a
      condition precedent to the obligation of Lender agreeing to make available
      to
      Simclar the facilities under the Facilities Letters (and the execution of any
      amendment thereto) that Grantors shall have executed and delivered this
      Agreement to the Lender for the benefit of the Security

      processor or other bailee, such Grantor shall notify such warehousemen,

      Lender's security interest therein and, upon the occurrence and continuation

      an Event of Default and upon the Lender's request, instruct such Persons to
      hold
      all such Collateral for the Lender's account and subject to the Lender's
      instructions. Each Grantor will use its best efforts to obtain from any
      warehouseman, processor or other bailee written acknowledgment, in form and
      substance satisfactory to Lender, that such warehouseman, processor or other
      bailee holds possession of the Collateral for the Lender's benefit. If any
      Grantor is unable to obtain a written acknowledgment of the type required by
      the
      previous sentence from any warehouseman, processor or other bailee, then such
      Grantor shall move such Collateral to a warehouseman, processor or bailee who
      will provide the required acknowledgment. If more than $100,000 of Collateral
      of
      a Grantor is held by a bailee, such Grantor will file a financing statement

      7-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction
      or under other relevant law), or, if any warehouse receipt or receipt in the
      nature thereof is "negotiable" (as such term is so used), such Grantor shall
      promptly take all action as may be required under the relevant jurisdiction
      to
      grant a perfected security interest in such Collateral to the Lender for the
      benefit of the Security Beneficiaries.

      Chattel Paper, letters of credit, certificated securities and certificates
      issued in respect of Pledged Deposits, which shall be endorsed in blank, marked
      with such legends and accompanied by such stock powers and assignments as the
      Lender shall specify. To the extent Pledged Deposits constitute Deposit
      Accounts, each Grantor shall take all steps that may be required (including
      the
      obtaining and furnishing to the Lender appropriate account control agreements
      as
      required under Section 9-104 of the UCC) to grant "control" (as defined in

      for
      the Lender the agreement of any securities intermediary to comply with
      instructions and entitlement orders originated by the Lender without further
      consent of such Grantor or other registered owner or entitlement holder) in

      take and will cause such other relevant parties to take all other action
      necessary or appropriate to create and maintain a perfected first priority

      have
      a Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the foregoing:




(a)  Each
      Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will (i) continue to use each
      material Trademark on each and every trademark class of goods applicable to

      appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required

      not
      permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit

      portion of the Copyrights may become invalidated or otherwise impaired. Such
      Grantor will not (either itself or through licensees) do any act whereby any
      material portion of the Copyrights may fall into the public domain.  -13-


(d)  Each
      Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act that knowingly
      uses any material Intellectual Property to infringe the intellectual property
      rights of any other Person.




(e)  Each
      Grantor will notify the Lender and the Security Beneficiaries immediately if
      it
      knows, or has reason to know, that any application or registration relating
      to
      any material Intellectual Property may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated
      to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the
      institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding
      in
      the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright
      Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor's
      ownership of, or the validity of, any material Intellectual Property or such
      Grantor's right to register the same or to own and maintain the
      same.




(f)  Whenever
      a Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or
      designee, shall file an application for the registration of Intellectual
      Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States
      Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any

      Copyright, Patent or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of
      such
      Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.




(g)  Each
      Grantor shall take all reasonable and necessary steps, including in any
      proceeding before the United Status Patent and Trademark Office, the United
      States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country
      or
      any political subdivision thereof to maintain and pursue each application (and
      to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each registration of the
      material Intellectual Property, including filing of applications for renewal,
      affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability.




(h)  In
      the
      event that any material Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated
      or
      diluted by a third party, each Grantor shall (i) take such actions as such
      Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect
      such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such Intellectual Property is of material
      economic value, promptly notify the Lender after it learns thereof and sue
      for

      right of set-off or bankers' lien. Without precluding any other methods of
      sale,
      the sale of Collateral shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially
      reasonable manner if conducted in conformity with reasonable commercial
      practices of commercial lenders disposing of similar property, but in any event

      assuming any credit risk and without any obligation to advertise or give notice

      against any of the Pledged Deposits (general or special, time or demand,
      provisional or final) or other sums of any Grantor in the possession of or
      in
      transit to the Lender for application to the Grantor Obligations, which rights

      of any bond or other security in connection with the obtaining of any such
      specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief.




Section
      5.7.  Additional
      Liabilities Upon Default .

      AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES .




No
      failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
      any
      right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall

      are
      cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. The
      Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights hereunder or under any
      other agreement or instrument unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed
      by such parties.




7. PROCEEDS;
      COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES .




Section
      7.1.  Collection
      of Receivables .
      The
      Lender may at any time during a Default Period, without notice to any Grantor,
      elect to enforce collection of any Receivable, require that the Proceeds of
      Receivables or other Collateral be paid directly to the Lender or to any account
      specified by the Lender and/or require that Proceeds of Receivables or other
      Collateral received by such Grantor be deposited into any account specified
      by
      the Lender (any account referred to in this sentence being a " Pledged
      Account ").
      During any Default Period, each Grantor shall (if requested to do so by Lender),
      and/or Lender may, promptly notify the account debtors or obligors of the
      Receivables of the Lender's interest therein and direct such account debtors
      or
      obligors to make payment of all amounts then or thereafter due under the
      Receivables directly to the Lender or to any account specified by the Lender.
      During a Default Period, each Grantor shall hold in trust for the Lender all
      amounts and Proceeds received by it with respect to the Receivables and other
      Collateral, shall segregate all such amounts and Proceeds from other funds
      of
      such Grantor, and shall at all tames thereafter promptly deliver to the Lender
      (or into any Pledged Account as the Lender may specify) all such amounts and
      Proceeds in the same form as so received, whether by cash, check, draft or
      otherwise, with any necessary endorsements. Each Grantor will execute and
      deliver to the Lender, for delivery by the Lender to each bank or other
      financial institution with which it maintains any bank or deposit account (or
      if
      so instructed by the Lender will execute and deliver directly to each such
      bank
      or other financial institution) such notices as the Lender may from time to
      time
      request advising each such bank or other financial institution that Proceeds
      deposited to an account during a Default Period constitute Pledged Deposits
      hereunder, subject to the Security Interest granted hereby, and instructing
      each
      such bank or other financial institution that during the Default Period each
      Pledged Account and all Pledged Deposits are to be maintained by such bank
      or
      other financial institution subject to the absolute dominion and control of
      the
      Lender and are to be delivered, disbursed or otherwise distributed solely in
      accordance with the instructions of the Lender, and such Grantor shall take
      all
      such other actions as may otherwise be required under applicable law to perfect
      the Security Interest in the Pledged Accounts and Pledged Deposits.




Section
      7.2.  Application
      of Proceeds .




(a)  During
      the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender shall have the continuing
      and
      exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any and all payments to any
      portion of the Grantor Obligations. To the extent that a Grantor makes a payment
      or payments to the Lender or the Lender receives any payment or proceeds of
      the
      Collateral, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently
      invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
      to
      be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law,
      state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of
      such
      payment or proceeds, the Grantor Obligations or part thereof intended to be
      satisfied and this Agreement shall be revived and continue in full force and
      effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by such
      party.  -17-


(b)  The
      proceeds of any sale of or collection of Collateral, as well as any Collateral
      consisting of cash, shall be applied by the Lender first, to the payment of
      the
      costs and expenses of any such sale or collection, including reasonable fees
      and
      disbursements of the Lender's agents and counsel, and of any judicial proceeding
      wherein the same may be made, and of all expenses, liabilities and advances
      (to
      the extent such advances are reasonably made for the protection of the
      Collateral or the enforcement of the Lender's security interest in the
      Collateral) made or incurred by the Lender, together with interest thereon,
      second, in satisfaction of the Grantor Obligations in the order set forth in
      the
      Facilities Letter, and third, to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive
      any surplus. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds
      of sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the
      Grantor Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed
      by
      the Lender or any Security Beneficiary to collect such deficiency. Upon any
      sale
      of the Collateral by the Lender (including pursuant to a power of sale granted
      by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Lender or of
      the
      officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or
      purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall
      not
      be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid
      over to the Lender or such officer or be answerable in any way for the
      misapplication thereof.

      Each
      Grantor recognizes that set-offs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims
      may
      be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain
      of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that
      the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable
      may
      exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect
      to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Lender
      may at any time and from time to tune upon the occurrence and during the
      continuance of an Event of Default, compromise with the obligor on any
      Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Lender
      in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such
      action by the Lender shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Lender
      acts
      in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such
      action.




Section
      8.3.  Secured
      Party Performance of Debtor Secured Liabilities. Without
      having any obligation to do so, the Lender may perform or pay any obligation
      which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Agreement but has not
      performed or paid on the due date therefor and such Grantor shall reimburse
      the
      Lender for any amounts paid or incurred pursuant to this Section 8.3. Each
      Grantor's obligation to reimburse pursuant to the preceding sentence shall
      be
      Grantor Obligations payable on demand.




Section
      8.4.  Authorization
      for Secured Party To Take Certain Action .
      Each
      Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time
      in
      the sole discretion of the  -18-


Lender
      and appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such
      Grantor, in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the
      Lender's discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument which
      the
      Lender may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this
      Agreement, including (but as to the matters described in the following clauses
      (ii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (x) and (xi), only upon the occurrence and

      interest in the Collateral; (ii) to endorse, deposit and collect any cash,
      Instruments and other proceeds of the Collateral: (iii) to file a carbon,
      photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement

      Lender in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to
      maintain the perfection and priority of the Lender's security interest in the
      Collateral; (iv) to enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Lender
      or such Grantor; (v) to cause the proceeds of any Collateral received by the
      Lender or any Security Beneficiary to be applied to the Grantor Obligations
      as
      contemplated by the Loan Documents; (vi) to sign such Grantor's name on any
      invoice or bill of lading relating to any Receivable, on drafts against
      customers, on schedules and assignments of Receivables, on notices of
      assignment, financing statements and other public records, on verifications
      of
      accounts and on notices to customers; (vii) to notify the post office
      authorities to change the address for delivery of such Grantor's mail to an
      address designated by the Lender, and to receive, open and dispose of all mail
      addressed to such Grantor; (viii) to send requests for verification of
      Receivables to customers or account debtors (provided that this clause shall
      not
      limit the Lender's rights under Section 4.1); (ix) to do any act or thing which
      the Lender ought to execute and do under the terms of this Agreement or which
      may be required or deemed proper in the exercise of any rights or powers
      conferred on the Lender for any of the purposes of this Agreement; (x) to grant
      or issue any exclusive or nonexclusive license under the Collateral to anyone;
      (xi) to assign, pledge, convey or otherwise transfer title in or to or dispose

      the
      United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency of the United
      States, any State thereof or any other country or political subdivision thereof,
      and to execute and deliver any and all agreements, documents, instruments of
      assignment or other papers necessary or advisable to effect any of the foregoing
      or the recordation, registration, filing or perfection thereof; and (xii) to
      file financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto that
      describe the Collateral (a) as all assets of such Grantor or words of similar
      effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral
      falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC, or (b) as being of an equal
      or
      lesser scope or with greater detail, and which contain any other information
      required by Part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office
      acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or amendment,
      including (x) whether the Grantor is an organization, the type of organization
      and any organization identification number issued to the Grantor and (y) in
      the
      case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating Collateral
      as as-extracted collateral or timber to cut, a sufficient description of the
      real property to which the Collateral relates. Each Grantor hereby ratifies
      all
      that such attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof
      and
      also ratifies its authorization for the Lender to have filed in any UCC
      jurisdiction any like initial financing statements or amendments thereto if
      filed prior to the date hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies
      contained in this Agreement are  -19-


coupled
      with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and
      the
      security interests created hereby are released. The powers conferred on the
      Lender and the other Security Beneficiaries hereunder are solely to protect
      the
      Lender's and the Security Beneficiaries' interests in the Collateral and shall
      not impose any duty upon the Lender or any Security Beneficiary to exercise
      any
      such powers. The Lender and the Security Beneficiaries shall be accountable
      only
      for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such
      powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or
      agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act
      hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful
      misconduct.




Section
      8.5.  Use
      and Possession of Certain Premises .
      Upon
      the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender
      or

      owned or leased by any Grantor where any of the Collateral or any records
      relating to the Collateral are located until the Grantor Obligations are paid
      in
      full or until the Collateral is removed therefrom, whichever occurs first,
      without any obligation to pay such Grantor for such use and
      occupancy.




Section
      8.6.  Standard
      of Care .
      The
      Lender's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
      preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the
      UCC
      or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Lender deals
      with similar property for its own account. Neither the Lender, any Security
      Beneficiary nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents
      shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the
      Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to
      sell
      or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any
      other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the
      Collateral or any part thereof.




Section
      8.7.  Specific
      Provisions Regarding Execution and Filing of Financing
      Statements .
      Pursuant to the UCC and any other applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the
      Lender to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording
      documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral or to use a generic
      description such as "all assets" or "all property" without the signature of
      such
      Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Lender reasonably determines
      appropriate to perfect the security interests granted hereunder. To the extent
      permitted under the UCC, a photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement
      shall be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording
      document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction.

      connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody
      or
      preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon,

      of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of
      the
      Lender hereunder, or (iv) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe
      any
      of the provisions hereof.




(b)  Without
      limiting the foregoing, each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Lender
      and
      the Security Beneficiaries harmless from, and to indemnify them against, any
      and
      all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any
      and
      all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined
      to be
      payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of
      the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any such amounts payable as
      provided hereunder shall be additional Grantor Obligations secured by this
      Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Grantors are a party. Each
      Grantor further agrees to pay, and to save the Lender and the Security
      Beneficiaries harmless from, and to indemnify them against, any and all
      liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
      costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect
      to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of
      this
      Agreement, or arising out of or relating to the Lender's or any Security
      Beneficiary's relationship with such Grantor hereunder or under any other Loan
      Document.




Section
      9.5.  Binding
      Agreement; Assignments .
      This
      Agreement, and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof, shall be binding
      upon
      and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
      and permitted assigns, except that no Grantor shall be permitted to assign
      this
      Agreement or any interest herein.




Section
      9.6.  Governing
      Law .
      This
      Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic
      laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any choice of law or
      conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Florida or any other
      jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction
      other than the State of Florida.  -21-


Section
      9.7.  Severability .
      In case
      any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be invalid,
      illegal or unenforceable in any respect, no party hereto shall be required
      to
      comply with such provision for so long as such provision is held to be invalid,
      illegal or unenforceable and the validity, legality and enforceability of the
      remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or
      impaired. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace
      the
      invalid, illegal and unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the
      economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid,
      illegal or unenforceable provisions.




Section
      9.8.  Section
      Headings; Interpretation .
      Section
      headings used herein are for convenience only and are not to affect the
      construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this
      Agreement. The use of the word "including" or any variation or derivative
      thereof in this Agreement is by way of example rather than by limitation. The
      language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen, by
      the
      Lender and the Grantors to express their mutual intent. In the event an
      ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will
      be
      construed as if drafted jointly by the Grantors and the Lender, and no
      presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Person
      by
      virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this
      Agreement.




Section
      9.9.  Counterparts .
      This
      Agreement may be authenticated in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
      constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute
      but one instrument, and any of the parties hereto may authenticate this
      Agreement by signing any such counterpart. This Agreement may be authenticated
      by manual signature, facsimile or, if approved in writing by the Lender and
      the
      Grantors, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid.




Section
      9.10.  Termination .




(a)  At
      such
      time as all of the Grantor Obligations (other than any indemnity and similar
      obligations which expressly survive termination of this Agreement and are not
      then due and payable) have been paid irrevocably and in full, this Agreement
      and
      all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination)
      of the Lender and the Grantors shall terminate, and the Collateral shall be
      released from the Security Interests created hereby, all without delivery of
      any
      instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the
      Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of
      the
      Grantors following any such termination, the Lender shall deliver to each
      Grantor any Collateral of such Grantor then held by the Lender hereunder and
      shall execute and deliver to such Grantor or authorize the filing of but without
      recourse to or warranty by the Lender, such Uniform Commercial Code termination
      statements and similar documents prepared by such Grantor which such Grantor
      shall reasonably request to evidence the release of the Collateral from the
      security constituted hereby.




(b)  Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall
      remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition
      be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should
      any
      Grantor become insolvent or make are assignment for any benefit of creditors
      or
      should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of
      any
      Grantor's assets, and shall continue to be effective  -22-


or
      be
      reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the
      Grantor Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law,
      rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by
      any
      obligee of the Grantor Obligations, whether as a "voidable preference,"
      "fraudulent conveyance" or otherwise, all as though such payment, or any part
      thereof, had not been made.




(c)  Notwithstanding
      anything in this Security Agreement to the contrary, the Grantors may, to the
      extent permitted by the Facility Letters sell, assign, transfer or otherwise
      dispose of any Collateral. In addition, the Collateral shall be subject to
      release from time to time (with the Collateral referred to in the immediately
      preceding sentence, the " Released
      Collateral ")
      in
      accordance with the facility Letters. The Liens under this Security Agreement
      shall terminate with respect to the Released Collateral (other than Released
      Collateral that is sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed to a
      Grantor or any other Guarantor) upon such sale, transfer, assignment,
      disposition or release, and upon the written request of the Grantor, the Lender
      shall execute and deliver such instrument or document as may be necessary to
      release the Liens granted hereunder; provided, however, that (i) the Lender
      shall not be required to execute any such documents on terms which, in the
      Lender's opinion, would expose the Lender to liability or create any obligation
      or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse
      or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect
      or
      impair the Grantor Obligations or any Liens on (or obligations of any Grantor
      in
      respect of all interests retained by any Grantor, including without limitation,
      the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of
      the
      Collateral unless and until applied strictly in accordance with the Loan
      Documents.




Section
      9.11.  CONSENT
      TO JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS .
      ALL
      JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY GRANTOR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT
      MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN MIAMI,
      FLORIDA AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT EACH GRANTOR ACCEPTS
      FOR
      ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY,
      THE
      NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS, AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO
      BE
      BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. TO
      THE
      EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH GRANTOR AND THE AGENT ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND
      EACH
      OF THE LENDERS HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE UPON IT BY CERTIFIED MAIL SHALL
      CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE AND SERVICE OF PROCESS. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT
      THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT
      THE RIGHT OF THE AGENT TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GRANTOR IN THE COURTS
      OF
      ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.




Section
      9.12.  WAIVER
      OF JURY TRIAL .
      EACH
      GRANTOR AND THE AGENT, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OF THE LENDERS, EACH HEREBY
      IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY
      IN
      ANY LITIGATION IN ANY COURT WITH RESPECT TO, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR ARISING
      OUT
      OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE VALIDITY, PROTECTION, INTERPRETATION, COLLECTION
      OR
      ENFORCEMENT HEREOF; AND EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED
      BY
      APPLICABLE  -23-


LAW,
      THE
      RIGHT TO INTERPOSE ANY SET OFF OR COUNTERCLAIM OR CROSS-CLAIM IN CONNECTION
      WITH
      ANY SUCH LITIGATION, IRRESPECTIVE OF THE NATURE OF SUCH SETOFF, COUNTERCLAIM
      OR
      CROSS-CLAIM EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE FAILURE SO TO ASSERT ANY SUCH SETOFF,
      COUNTERCLAIM OR CROSS-CLAIM WOULD PERMANENTLY PRECLUDE THE PROSECUTION OF OR
      RECOVERY UPON SAME, Notwithstanding anything contained In this Agreement to
      the
      contrary, no claim may be made by any Grantor against the Lender or any Security
      Beneficiary for any lost profits or any special, indirect or consequential
      damages in respect of any breach or wrongful conduct (other than willful
      misconduct or actual fraud) in connection with, arising out of or in any way
      related to the transactions contemplated hereunder, or any act, omission or
      event occurring in connection therewith; and each Grantor hereby waives,
      releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim for any such damages. EACH
      GRANTOR AGREES THAT THIS SECTION IS A SPECIFIC AND MATERIAL ASPECT OF THIS
      AGREEMENT AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LENDERS WOULD NOT EXTEND TO THE GRANTORS
      THE
      FACILITIES UNDER THE FACILITIES LETTERS IF THIS SECTION WERE NOT PART OF THIS
      AGREEMENT.

      shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart
      thereof.

      9.14.  Acknowledgements .

      Grantor acknowledges that: (a) it has been advised by counsel in the
      negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
