    such rights shall thereupon become vested in Secured Party who shall
    thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual
    rights;

shareholders and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective,
automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of
any Pledged Shares on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other

purchaser of any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale and Secured
Party, as agent for and representative of Holders (but not any Holder or Holders
in its or their respective individual capacities unless Requisite Holders shall
otherwise agree in writing), shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and
making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the
Pledged Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the
Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Pledged
Collateral payable by Secured Party at such sale.  Each purchaser at any such
sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the
part of Pledgor, and Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by
applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has
or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now
existing or hereafter enacted.  Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of
sale shall be required by law, at least ten days' notice to Pledgor of the time
and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be
made shall constitute reasonable notification.  Secured Party shall not be
obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale
having been given.  Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from
time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale
may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
adjourned. Pledgor hereby waives any claims against Secured Party arising by
reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been
sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been
obtained at a public sale, even if Secured Party accepts the first offer
received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.
If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral are
insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, Pledgor shall be liable for the
deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by Secured Party to collect
such deficiency.

          (b) Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions
contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended (the
"SECURITIES ACT"), and applicable state securities laws, Secured Party may be
compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral
conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Pledged Collateral
under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers
to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral
for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at
prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale
without such restrictions (including, without limitation, a public offering made
pursuant to a registration

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
statement under the Securities Act) and Pledgor agrees that any such private
sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and
that Secured Party shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no
obligation to delay the sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time
necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale
requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state
securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it.

          (c) If Secured Party determines to exercise its right to sell any or
all of the Pledged Collateral, upon written request, Pledgor shall and shall
cause each issuer (which is a Subsidiary of Pledgor) of any Pledged Shares to be
sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Secured Party all such
information as Secured Party may request in order to determine the number of
shares and other instruments included in the Pledged Collateral which may be
sold by Secured Party in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as
the same are from time to time in effect.

          SECTION 12.  APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.  Except as expressly provided
                       -----------------------                               
elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds received by Secured Party in respect
of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of
the Pledged Collateral may, in the discretion of Secured Party, be held by
Secured Party as Pledged Collateral for, and/or then, or at any time thereafter,
applied in full or in part by Secured Party against, the Secured Obligations in
the following order of priority:

              FIRST:  To the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale,
    collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to
    Secured Party and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses,
    liabilities and advances made or incurred by Secured Party in connection
    therewith, and all amounts for which Secured Party is entitled to
    indemnification hereunder and all advances made by Secured Party hereunder
    for the account of Pledgor, and to the payment of all costs and expenses
    paid or incurred by Secured Party in connection with the exercise of any
    right or remedy hereunder, all in accordance with Section 13;

              SECOND:  To the payment of all other Secured Obligations in such
    order as Secured Party shall elect; and

              THIRD:  To the payment to or upon the order of Pledgor, or to
    whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of
    competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such
    proceeds.

                                       10

          SECTION 13.  INDEMNITY AND EXPENSES.
                       ---------------------- 

          (a) Pledgor agrees to indemnify Secured Party and each Holder from and
against any and all claims, losses and liabilities in any way relating to,
growing out of or resulting from this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, enforcement of this
Agreement), except to the extent such claims, losses or liabilities result
solely from Secured Party's or such Holder's gross negligence or willful
misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

          (b) Pledgor shall pay to Secured Party upon demand the amount of any
and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its
counsel and of any experts and agents, that Secured Party may incur in
connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody or
preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any
of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the
rights of Secured Party hereunder, or (iv) the failure by Pledgor to perform or
observe any of the provisions hereof.

          SECTION 14.  CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF NOTES.  This
                       -----------------------------------------------       
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral
and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all
Secured Obligations, (b) be binding upon Pledgor, its successors and assigns,
and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder,
to the benefit of Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns.
Without limiting the gener ality of the foregoing clause (c), any Holder may
assign or otherwise transfer any Notes held by it to any other Person, and such
other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect
thereof granted to Holders herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all
Secured Obligations, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate and
all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to Pledgor. Upon any such
termination Secured Party will, at Pledgor's expense, execute and deliver to
Pledgor such documents as Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination and Pledgor shall be entitled to the return, upon its request and at
its expense, against receipt and without recourse to Secured Party, of such of
the Pledged Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant
to the terms hereof.

          SECTION 15.  SECURED PARTY AS COLLATERAL AGENT.
                       --------------------------------- 

          (a) Secured Party has been appointed to act as Secured Party hereunder
by Holders.  Secured Party shall be obligated, and shall have the right
hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from
exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including,
without limitation, the release or substitution of Pledged Collateral), solely
in accordance with this Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement.

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
          (b) Secured Party shall at all times be the same Person that is
Collateral Agent under the Note Purchase Agreement.  Written notice of
resignation by Collateral Agent pursuant to subsection 8.7 of the Note Purchase
Agreement shall also constitute notice of resignation as Secured Party under
this Agreement; removal of Collateral Agent pursuant to subsection 8.7 of the
Note Purchase Agreement shall also constitute removal as Secured Party under
this Agreement; and appointment of a successor Collateral Agent pursuant to
subsection 8.7 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall also constitute appointment
of a successor Secured Party under this Agreement.  Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as Collateral Agent under subsection 8.7 of the Note Purchase
Agreement by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring or removed Secured Party under this Agreement, and
the retiring or removed Secured Party under this Agreement shall promptly (i)
transfer to such successor Secured Party all sums, securities and other items of
Pledged Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents
necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the
successor Secured Party under this Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver to
such successor Secured Party such amendments to financing statements, and take
such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the
assignment to such successor Secured Party of the security interests created
hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Secured Party shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.  After any retiring or
removed Collateral Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Secured Party,
the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Secured
Party hereunder.

          SECTION 16.  AMENDMENTS; ETC.  No amendment, modification, termination
                       ---------------                                          
or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by
Pledgor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by Secured Party and, in the case of any such amendment or
modification, by Pledgor.  Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.

          SECTION 17.  NOTICES.  Any notice or other communication herein
                       -------                                           
required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be personally
served, telexed or sent by telefacsimile or United States mail or courier
service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by
courier service, upon receipt of telefacsimile or telex, or four Business Days
after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly
addressed.  For the purposes hereof, the address of each party hereto shall be
as set forth under such party's name on the signature pages hereof or, as to
either party, such other address as shall be designated by such party in a
written notice delivered to the other party hereto.

          SECTION 18.  FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No
                       -----------------------------------------------------    
failure or delay on the part of Secured Party in the exercise of any power,
right or privilege hereunder shall impair such power, right or privilege or be
construed to be a

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  All rights and
remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of,
any rights or remedies otherwise available.

          SECTION 19.  SEVERABILITY.  In case any provision in or obligation
                       ------------                                         
under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other
jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

          SECTION 20.  HEADINGS.  Section and subsection headings in this
                       --------                                          
Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not
constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any
substantive effect.

          SECTION 21.  GOVERNING LAW; TERMS.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND
                       --------------------                                    
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE
CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEVADA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT
THAT THE CODE PROVIDES THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST
HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR PLEDGED
COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF
NEVADA. Unless otherwise defined herein or in the Note Purchase Agreement, terms
used in Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in the State of Nevada
are used herein as therein defined.

          SECTION 22.  CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS.  ALL
                       ----------------------------------------------      
JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST PLEDGOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION
IN THE STATE OF NEVADA, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT PLEDGOR
ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND
WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY
ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.  Pledgor hereby
agrees that service of all process in any such proceeding in any such court may
be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to Pledgor at
its address provided in Section 17, such service being hereby acknowledged by
Pledgor to be sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against Pledgor
in any such court and to be otherwise effective and binding service in every
respect.  Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Secured Party to bring
proceedings against Pledgor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

          SECTION 23.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
                       --------------------                             
APPLICABLE LAW, PLEDGOR AND SECURED PARTY HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE
RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT
OF THIS AGREEMENT. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all-encompassing
of any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the
subject matter of this transaction, including without limitation contract
claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other common law and
statutory claims.  Pledgor and Secured Party each acknowledge that this waiver
is a material inducement for Pledgor and Secured Party to enter into a business
relationship, that Pledgor and Secured Party have already relied on this waiver
in entering into this Agreement and that each will continue to rely on this
waiver in their related future dealings.  Pledgor and Secured Party further
warrant and represent that each has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel,
and that each knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following
consultation with legal counsel.  THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT
MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO
ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS
AGREEMENT.  In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written
consent to a trial by the court.

          SECTION 24.  COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in one or
                       ------------                                           
more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each
of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all
such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument;
signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached
to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to
the same document.
