2. Grant of Security Interest.



(a) Guarantor hereby grants to the Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of
all of the Secured Obligations, a security interest in all personal and fixture property of every
kind and nature including without limitation all Goods (including Inventory, Equipment and any
Accessions thereto), Instruments (including Promissory Notes), Documents, Accounts, Chattel Paper
(whether Tangible Chattel Paper or Electronic Chattel Paper), Deposit Accounts, Letter-of-Credit
Rights (whether or not the Letter of Credit is evidenced by a writing), Commercial Tort Claims,
Investment Property, Subsidiaries (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) whether now existing

the payment of money, insurance claims and proceeds, tort claims, and all General Intangibles
(including all Payment Intangibles and all Proceeds of the foregoing) (all of the same listed in
this Section 2 being hereinafter called, the “Collateral”). The Lender acknowledges that
the attachment of its security interest in any Commercial Tort Claim as original collateral is
subject to Guarantor’s compliance with Section 4(g).



(b) Lender at all times shall have a perfected security interest in the Collateral. Guarantor
represents that, other than the security interests described on Schedule 2, if any, it has and will
continue to have full title to the Collateral free from any liens, leases, encumbrances, judgments
or other claims. The Lender’s security interest in the Collateral constitutes and will continue to
constitute a first, prior and indefeasible security interest in favor of Lender, subject only to
the security interests described on Schedule 2, if any, and as set forth in Section 2(a) hereof.
Guarantor will do all acts and things, and will execute and file all instruments (including, but
not limited to, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements, etc.)
reasonably requested by Lender to establish, maintain and continue the perfected security interest
of Lender in the perfected Collateral, and will promptly on demand, pay all costs and expenses of
filing and recording, including the costs of any searches reasonably deemed necessary by Lender
from time to time to establish and determine the validity and the continuing priority of the
security interest of Lender, and also pay all other claims and charges that, in the opinion of
Lender are reasonably likely to materially prejudice, imperil or otherwise affect the Collateral or
Lender’s security interests therein.



3. Authorization to File Financing Statements. Guarantor hereby irrevocably
authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code
jurisdiction any initial Financing Statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the
Collateral (i) as all assets of Guarantor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any
particular asset included in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the NYUCC, or
(ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) contain any other
information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the NYUCC for the sufficiency or filing office
acceptance of any Financing Statement or amendment, including (i) whether Guarantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to
Guarantor and, (ii) in the case of a Financing Statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating
Collateral as as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of real
property to which the Collateral relates. Guarantor agrees to furnish any such information to the
Lender promptly upon request.



4. Other Actions. To further insure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and
the ability of the Lender to enforce the Lender’s security interest in the Collateral, Guarantor
agrees, in each case at Guarantor’s own expense, at any time when an Event of Default exists and
has not been cured under the terms of the Note or the terms hereof, to take the following actions
with respect to the Collateral:



(a) Promissory Notes and Tangible Chattel Paper. If Guarantor shall at any time hold
or acquire any Promissory Notes or Tangible Chattel Paper, Guarantor shall (unless required
otherwise by another Loan Document) forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Lender,
accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Lender may
from time to time specify.



(b) [Reserved].



(c) Investment Property. If Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire any
Certificated Securities, Guarantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the
Lender, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the
Lender may from time to time specify. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by Guarantor are
uncertificated and are issued to Guarantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, Guarantor
shall immediately notify the Lender thereof and, at the Lender’s request and option, pursuant to an
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, cause the issuer to agree to comply
with instructions from the Lender as to such securities, without further consent of Guarantor or
such nominee. If any securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other Investment
Property now or hereafter acquired by Guarantor are held by Guarantor or its nominee through a
Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, Guarantor shall immediately notify the Lender
thereof and, at the Lender’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the Lender, either (i) cause such Securities Intermediary or (as the case may be)
Commodity Intermediary to agree to comply with entitlement orders or other instructions from the
Lender to such Securities Intermediary as to such securities or other Investment Property, or (as
the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity contract as directed by
the Lender to such Commodity Intermediary, in each case without further consent of Guarantor or
such nominee, or (ii) in the case of financial assets or other Investment Property held through a
Securities Intermediary, arrange for the Lender to become the entitlement holder with respect to
such Investment Property, with Guarantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Lender, to
exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such Investment Property. The Lender agrees with
Guarantor that the Lender shall not give any such entitlement orders or instructions or directions
to any such issuer, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its
consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by Guarantor, unless an Event of
Default exists (or would exist after giving effect to any such investment or withdrawal). The
provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any financial assets credited to a securities
account for which the Lender is the Securities Intermediary.



(d) Collateral in the Possession of a Bailee. If any goods are at any time in the
possession of a bailee, Guarantor shall promptly notify the Lender thereof and, if requested by the
Lender, shall promptly obtain an acknowledgment from the bailee, in form and substance satisfactory
to the Lender, that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of the Lender and shall act
upon the instructions of the Lender, without the further consent of Guarantor.



(e) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If Guarantor at any time holds
or acquires an interest in any Electronic Chattel Paper or any “transferable record,” as that term
is defined in Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act,
or in §16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction,
Guarantor shall promptly notify the Lender thereof and, at the request of the Lender, shall take
such action as the Lender may reasonably request to vest in the Lender control, under §9-105 of the
NYUCC, of such Electronic Chattel Paper or control under Section 201 of the federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, §16 of the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record.



(f) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If Guarantor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter
of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of Guarantor, Guarantor shall promptly notify the Lender
thereof and, at the request and option of the Lender at any time when an Event of Default exists,
Guarantor shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, either
(i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment
to the Lender of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the
Lender to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Lender agreeing, in
each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit shall be held as collateral
for the Secured Obligations.



(g) Commercial Tort Claims. If Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire a
Commercial Tort Claim, Guarantor shall immediately notify the Lender in a writing signed by
Guarantor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Lender in such writing a security interest
therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be
in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender.



(h) Other Actions as to any and all Collateral. Guarantor further agrees to take any
other action reasonably requested by the Lender to insure the attachment, perfection and first
priority of, and the ability of the Lender to enforce, the Lender’s security interest in any and
all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (1) executing, delivering and, where
appropriate, filing Financing Statements and amendments relating thereto under the Uniform
Commercial Code, to the extent, if any, that Guarantor’s signature thereon is required therefor,
(2) causing the Lender’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled
good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the
Lender to enforce, the Lender’s security interest in such Collateral, (3) complying with any
provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States or any foreign jurisdiction to
any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or
priority of (or comparable concepts under the laws of the United States or any foreign
jurisdiction), or ability of the Lender to enforce, the Lender’s security interest in such
Collateral, (4) making such filings in the United States Copyright Office and the United States
Patent and Trademark Office as the Lender shall request to register, file or otherwise confirm
Lender’s security interest in intellectual property, or rights therein, held by Guarantor,
(5) obtaining governmental and other third party consents and approvals, including without
limitation any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on Collateral,
(6) obtaining waivers from mortgagees and landlords in form and substance satisfactory to the
Lender and (7) taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the Uniform Commercial Code
or by other law, as applicable in any relevant Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction, or by other
law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction.



5. Conflicts; Other Jurisdictions. In the case of any direct conflict between the
provisions of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, whether governed by the laws of
the United States, any state therein or any other jurisdiction, those provisions shall control
which afford to the Secured Party the greater rights, security and indemnification. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge that the inclusion of
supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Secured Party with respect to any Collateral in any
such Transaction Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement.



6. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor hereby makes the following
representations and warranties to the Lender, which representations and warranties shall survive
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents:



(a) All of the representations and warranties made by Guarantor in any of the Transaction

Commodity Intermediary) any Investment Property (whether Certificated Securities, Uncertificated
Securities or otherwise).

omit to do any act, whereby any Patent which is material to the conduct of Guarantor’s business may
become abandoned or dedicated.



(b) Guarantor shall notify the Lender immediately if it knows or has reason to know that any
application or registration relating to any Patent or Trademark which is material to the conduct of
Guarantor’s business may become abandoned or dedicated, or of any adverse determination or

Lender may request to evidence the Lender’s security interest in such Patent or Trademark and the
goodwill and general intangibles of Guarantor relating thereto or represented thereby, and
Guarantor hereby constitutes the Lender its attorney-in-fact after an Event of Default has occurred
(which has not been waived and only during the continuation of such Event of Default) to execute
and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby
ratified and confirmed; such power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the
Secured Obligations are paid in full.

application on unpatented but patentable inventions and to preserve and maintain all rights in
patent and trademark applications; provided, however, that Guarantor shall have no
obligation to make application on any unpatented but patentable inventions if making such
application would be unnecessary or imprudent in the good faith business judgment of Guarantor or

best interests of Guarantor. Any expenses incurred in connection with such an application shall be
borne by Guarantor.



(h) During an Event of Default, the Lender shall have the right but shall in no way be

relevant time by the Lender) prior written notice to the Lender.

Transaction Documents: (1) Guarantor is and shall be the owner of or have other rights in the

accepted accounting principles).



(h) Guarantor will continue to operate its business in compliance with all applicable
provisions of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended, and with all applicable provisions
of federal, state and local statutes and ordinances dealing with the control, shipment, storage or
disposal of hazardous materials or substances.

assets.



11. Insurance. Guarantor will maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers
insurance with respect to its properties and business against loss and damage by fire and other
risks, casualties and contingencies in such manner and to the extent that like properties are
customarily so insured by other corporations engaged in the same or similar business similarly
situated.



12. Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.



(a) Expenses Incurred by Lender. In its reasonable discretion, the Lender may
discharge taxes and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral, make
repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees or, if Guarantor fails to do so, insurance
premiums. Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Lender on demand for any and all reasonable
expenditures so made. The Lender shall have no obligation to Guarantor to make any such
expenditures, nor shall the making thereof relieve Guarantor of any default.



(b) Lender’s Obligations and Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
Guarantor shall remain liable for its obligations under each contract or agreement included in the
Collateral. The Lender shall not have any obligation or liability under any such contract or
agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Lender of any payment
relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Lender be obligated in any manner to perform any
of the obligations of Guarantor under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make
inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Lender in respect of the
Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or
agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to
collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Lender or to which the
Lender may be entitled at any time or times. The Lender’s sole duty with respect to the custody,
safe keeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under §9-207 of the
NYUCC of the State or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the
Lender deals with similar property for its own account.



13. Notification to Account Debtors and Other Persons Obligated on Collateral.
Whenever an Event of Default exists which has not been waived and only during the continuation
of such Event of Default, Guarantor shall, at the request of the Lender, notify account debtors and
other persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the security interest of the Lender in any
Account, Chattel Paper, General Intangible, Instrument or other Collateral and that payment thereof
is to be made directly to the Lender or to any financial institution designated by the Lender as
the Lender’s agent therefor, and the Lender may itself, whenever an Event of Default exists ,
without notice to or demand upon Guarantor, so notify account debtors and other persons obligated
on Collateral. After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, Guarantor
shall hold as trustee for the Lender any Proceeds of collection of Accounts, Chattel Paper, General
Intangibles, Instruments and other Collateral received by Guarantor without commingling the same
with other funds of Guarantor and shall turn the same over to the Lender in the identical form
received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments. The Lender, at its option, shall
apply the Proceeds of collection of Accounts, Chattel Paper, General Intangibles, Instruments and
other Collateral received by the Lender to the Secured Obligations, such Proceeds to be immediately
entered after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise
to them, or hold such Proceeds as collateral for the Secured Obligations.



14. Power of Attorney.



(a) Appointment and Powers of Lender. Guarantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Lender and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true
and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of
Guarantor or in the Lender’s own name, solely to do the following:



(i) whenever an Event of Default exists which has not been waived and only during the
continuation of such Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with
respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral in such manner as is consistent with the
NYUCC and as fully and completely as though the Lender was the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes, and to do at Guarantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things
which the Lender deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and
the Lender’s security interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as
fully and effectively as Guarantor might do, including, without limitation, (i) the filing and
prosecuting of registration and transfer applications with the appropriate federal or local
agencies or authorities with respect to trademarks, copyrights and patentable inventions and
processes, and (ii) the execution, delivery and recording, in connection with any sale or other
disposition of any Collateral, of the endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance
or transfer with respect to such Collateral; and



(ii) to the extent that Guarantor’s authorization given in Section 3 is not sufficient, to
file such Financing Statements with respect hereto, with or without Guarantor’s signature, or a
photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a Financing Statement, as the Lender may deem
appropriate and to execute in Guarantor’s name such Financing Statements and amendments thereto and
continuation statements which may require Guarantor’s signature.



(b) Ratification by Guarantor. To the extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby
ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Agreement.
This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.



(c) No Duty on Lender. The powers conferred on the Lender hereunder are solely to
protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such
powers. The Lender shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result
of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or
agents shall be responsible to Guarantor for any act or failure to act, except for the Lender’s own
gross negligence or willful misconduct.



(d) Expiration of Power of Attorney. The appointment of the Lender as Guarantor’s
attorney-in-fact shall expire effective upon the final and indefeasible payment and satisfaction
and discharge in full by Guarantor of all of the Secured Obligations.



15. Remedies.



(a) Whenever an Event of Default exists, the Lender may, without notice to or demand upon
Guarantor, declare this Agreement to be in default, and the Lender shall thereafter have in any
jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies,
the rights and remedies of a secured party under the NYUCC or of any other jurisdiction in which
Collateral is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the
Collateral, and for that purpose the Lender may, so far as Guarantor can give authority therefor,
enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom. The
Lender may in its discretion require Guarantor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at
such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of Guarantor’s principal office(s) or at such
other locations as the Lender may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or
threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the
Lender shall give to Guarantor at least ten Business Days prior written notice of the time and
place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other
intended disposition is to be made. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that ten Business Days prior
written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In addition, Guarantor waives any
and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the
Lender’s rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the Lender’s right following an Event of
Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights with respect
thereto. To the extent allowed by law, Lender may purchase the Collateral and pay for such
purchase by offsetting the purchase price with sums owed to Lender by Debtor arising under the
Secured Obligations or any other source.



(b) Without limiting, and in addition to, any other rights, options and remedies Lender has
under the Transaction Documents, the UCC, at law or in equity, or otherwise, upon the occurrence
and continuation of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to apply for and have a
receiver appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Debtor expressly agrees that such a
receiver will be permitted to manage, protect and preserve the Collateral and continue the
operation of the business of Debtor to the extent necessary to collect all revenues and profits
thereof and to apply the same to the payment of all expenses and other charges of such
receivership, including the compensation of the receiver, until a sale or other disposition of such
Collateral shall be finally made and consummated. Debtor waives any right to require a bond to be
posted by or on behalf of any such receiver.



16. Standards for Exercising Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes
duties on the Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Guarantor
acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Lender (a) to incur or
fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed necessary by the Lender to prepare Collateral for
disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other
finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to
Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or (if not required by other law) to fail to obtain
governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be
collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or
other persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse
claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other
persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other
collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media
of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact
other persons, whether or not in the same business as Guarantor, for expressions of interest in
acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (g) to hire or fail to hire one or more
professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral
is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide
for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable
capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in
wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, (k) to purchase
insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Lender against risks of loss, collection or
disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or
disposition of Collateral, or (l) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Lender, to obtain the
services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the
Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Guarantor acknowledges that the
purpose of this Section 16 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by
the Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the Lender’s exercise of remedies against the
Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Lender shall not be deemed commercially
unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 16. Without limitation upon
the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 16 shall be construed to grant any rights to
Guarantor or to impose any duties on the Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this
Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 16.



17. No Waiver by Lender, etc. The Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any of its
rights upon or under the Secured Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in
writing and signed by the Lender and any other person or entity required by the Note to sign such
waiver. No delay or omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a
waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a
bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Lender with
respect to the Secured Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other
instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively,
successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Lender deems expedient.



18. Suretyship Waivers by Guarantor. Except as expressly provided herein, Guarantor
waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made,
credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all
other demands and notices of any description. With respect to both the Secured Obligations and the
Collateral, Guarantor assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other
indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any security interest
in any Collateral, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily
liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting
of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Lender may reasonably deem
advisable. The Lender shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or
any income thereon, nor as to the preservation of rights against prior parties, nor as to the
preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth in
Section 12(b). Guarantor further waives any and all other suretyship defenses.



19. Marshalling. The Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future
collateral security (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other
assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral
security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights hereunder
and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and
in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may,
Guarantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral
which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Lender’s rights under this Agreement or
under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any
of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or
payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, Guarantor hereby
irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.



20. Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. Upon an Event of Default, and subject to
Guarantor’s receipt from the Lender of an accounting of such expenses, Guarantor shall pay to the
Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements,
incurred or paid by the Lender in protecting, preserving or enforcing the Lender’s rights under or
in respect of any of the Secured Obligations or any of the Collateral, or otherwise in connection
with this Agreement. After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any proceeds of
collection or sale of the Secured Obligations or Collateral shall, to the extent actually received
in cash, be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations in such order or preference as the
Lender may determine or held by it as otherwise provided in the Note, proper allowance and
provision being made for any Secured Obligations not then due. Upon the final payment and
satisfaction in full of all of the Secured Obligations and after making any payments required by
Sections 9-608(a)(1)(C) or 9-615(a)(3) of the NYUCC or other applicable law, any excess shall be
returned to Guarantor, and Guarantor shall remain liable for any deficiency in the payment of the
Secured Obligations.



21. Overdue Amounts. Until paid, all amounts due and payable by Guarantor hereunder
shall be a debt secured by the Collateral and shall bear, whether before or after judgment,
interest (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) at the rate of eighteen percent (18%)
per annum..



22. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO CHOICE OF LAW DOCTRINE THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS
OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION, except to the extent that matters of title or procedural issues of
foreclosure are required to be governed by the laws of the state in which the Collateral, or part
thereof, is located.



23. Jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby agrees that ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST
GUARANTOR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE
COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW
YORK AS THE LENDER MAY ELECT, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT GUARANTOR ACCEPTS AND
CONSENTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT TO ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION
OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND AGREES THAT SUCH JURISDICTION SHALL BE EXCLUSIVE, unless waived by the
Lender in writing, with respect to any action or proceeding brought by Guarantor against the
Lender, and further consents (to the extent permitted by applicable law) to the service of process
in any such action or proceeding being made upon Guarantor by mail at the address stated in Section
24(h) or at such other address as the Lender are notified of in accordance with Section 24(h)
hereof. Guarantor hereby waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any
such suit or any such court or that such suit is brought in an inconvenient court. Nothing herein
shall limit the right of the Lender to bring proceedings against Guarantor in the courts of any
other jurisdiction. Guarantor covenants that it is and will remain subject to service of process in
the State of New York so long as any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding. Nothing herein
shall affect the right of the Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.



24. Miscellaneous.



(a) No Waiver. No delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any of its rights,
remedies, powers and privileges hereunder or partial or single exercise thereof, shall constitute a
waiver thereof. None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified
or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by Guarantor and the Lender. No
notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice
or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the
Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.



(b) Binding Effect. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force
and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired by, (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of Guarantor;
(ii) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of, any right, remedy, power or privilege under or
in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, any other agreement
executed in connection with any of the foregoing whereby Guarantor has granted any Lien to the
Lender or any other agreement executed in connection with any of the foregoing, the Secured
Obligations or any security for any of the Secured Obligations; or (iii) any amendment to or
modification of any of the foregoing; whether or not Guarantor shall have notice or knowledge of
any of the foregoing. The rights and remedies of the Lender herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Lender would otherwise have.



(c) No Violation. All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Agreement may be
exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of
law, and the provisions hereof are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of
law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render
this Agreement invalid, unenforceable in whole or in part or not entitled to be recorded,
registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.



(d) No Obligation of Lender. It is expressly agreed, anything herein, in the
Transaction Documents or in any other agreement or instrument executed by Guarantor in connection
with any of the Transaction Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, that Guarantor shall remain
liable to perform all of the obligations, if any, assumed by it with respect to the Collateral and
the Lender shall not have any obligations or liabilities with respect to any Collateral by reason
of or arising out of this Agreement, nor shall the Lender be required or obligated in any manner to
perform or fulfill any of the obligations of Guarantor under or pursuant to any or in respect of
any Collateral.



(e) Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon Guarantor and its successors and
assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns, except that
Guarantor may not transfer or assign any of its obligations, rights or interest hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Lender and any such purported assignment by Guarantor shall be
void. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement.



(f) Headings; Amendments. The descriptive headings of the several sections of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or
construction of any provision of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be waived,
amended or supplemented except by a written instrument executed by Guarantor and the Lender.



(g) Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such
prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction.
