COVENANTS:

     Debtor hereby covenants to Secured Party and agrees that:

     1. Except as set forth on EXHIBIT "C": (a) the Collateral will be kept at 6

consolidate with any other entity other than a Subsidiary with the Debtor being

     3. If any or all of the Collateral is attached to or may be attached to
real estate, prior to the perfection of the security interest granted hereby,
Debtor will, on demand of Secured Party, use commercially reasonable efforts to
furnish the latter with a disclaimer signed by all persons having an interest in
the real estate, of any interest in the Collateral which is or may be prior to
Secured Party's interest.

     4. Except for Permitted Encumbrances, no financing statement covering any
Collateral or any additions, accessions, proceeds or products thereof or thereto

Party to be necessary or desirable. To the extent allowed by the Uniform
Commercial Code, as the same may be amended, Debtor authorizes Secured Party to
execute one or more financing statements describing the Collateral on Debtor's
behalf and to file same, and Debtor will pay the cost of filing and recording
the same in all public offices whenever filing and/or recording is deemed by

     5. Debtor will not sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the Collateral,
or any part thereof or any interest therein without the express written
authorization of Secured Party, except for any such sale, exchange or
disposition as may occur in the ordinary course of business or to compensate
professionals as may be necessary or appropriate. In the event of the sale,
exchange or other disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof or any
interest therein, other than any sale, exchange or disposition as may occur in
the ordinary course of business or to compensate professionals as may be
necessary or appropriate, (and no such sale, exchange or other disposition is
hereby authorized or consented to), the security interest of Secured Party shall
nevertheless continue in said Collateral (including all proceeds, cash and
non-cash) notwithstanding said sale, exchange or other disposition; all of said
proceeds shall remain Collateral hereunder and shall be transferred and paid
over to Secured Party immediately following said sale, exchange, or other
disposition and shall be applied at the option of Secured Party either to
installments due hereunder or referred to herein in their inverse order of
maturity or to the payment of any monies payable under this Agreement, or to any
Obligation of Debtor to Secured Party; and the receipt by Secured Party of all
or any part of said proceeds shall not be deemed or construed to be an
authorization or consent of Secured Party to such sale, exchange or other
disposition of said Collateral.

     6. Debtor will have and maintain insurance at all times with respect to all
Collateral against risks of fire (including so-called extended coverage), theft
and such risks as Secured Party may reasonably require, containing such terms,
in such form, and for such periods, and written by such companies as may be
satisfactory to Secured Party, such insurance to be payable to Secured Party and
Debtor as their interests may appear; each policy of insurance shall have a loss
payee endorsement providing:

     a.   That loss or damage, if any, under the policy, shall be payable to
          Secured Party, as secured party, as its interest may appear.

     b.   That the insurance as to the interest of Secured Party shall not be
          invalidated by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the
          property described in said policy, nor by any foreclosure, or other
          proceeding, or notice of sale relating to said property, nor by any
          change in the title of ownership of said property, nor by the
          occupation of the premises where the property is located for purposes
          more hazardous than are permitted by said policy;

     c.   That, if the policy is canceled at any time by the insurance carrier,
          in such case the policy shall continue in force for the benefit of
          Secured Party for not less than thirty (30) days after written notice
          of cancellation to Secured Party from the insurance carrier; and

     d.   That the policy will not be reduced or canceled at the request of the
          insured nor will said loss payee endorsement be amended or deleted
          without thirty (30) days prior written notice to Secured Party from
          the insurance carrier. Debtor shall furnish Secured Party with
          certificates or other evidence satisfactory to Secured Party of
          compliance with the foregoing insurance provisions; and Secured Party
          may act as attorney for Debtor in obtaining, adjusting, settling and
          canceling such insurance and receiving and endorsing any drafts.
          Debtor hereby assigns to Secured Party any and all monies which may
          become due and payable under any policy insuring the Collateral
          covered by this Security Agreement, including return of unearned
          premiums, and hereby directs any insurance company issuing any such
          policy to make payment directly to Secured Party and authorizes
          Secured Party, at its option,

                                        3
<PAGE>

     (i) to apply such monies in payment on account of any Obligation hereunder,
         whether or not due, or
     (ii) to return said funds to Debtor for the purpose of replacement of the
          Collateral, and
     (iii) to remit any surplus to Debtor.

     7. Other than Permitted Encumbrances, Debtor will keep the Collateral free
from any lien, security interest or encumbrance and in good order and repair,
and will not waste or destroy the Collateral or any part thereof; Debtor will
not use the Collateral in violation of any statute or ordinance; and Secured
Party may examine and inspect the Collateral at any time, wherever located; and
Debtor will notify Secured Party in the event of loss, theft, damage,
destruction, sale or encumbrance to or of any of the Collateral or the making of
any levy, seizure or attachments thereof or thereon, or the placing of any lien
or liens thereon or generally on the property of Debtor by the United States of
America or any federal, state or local governmental agency or authority.

     8. Debtor will pay promptly when due all taxes and assessments upon the
Collateral or for its use or operation or upon this Security Agreement or upon
any note or notes evidencing the Obligations of this Security Agreement. At its
option, in its sole and absolute discretion, Secured Party may discharge taxes,
liens, or security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed
on the Collateral, may pay for insurance on the Collateral and may pay for the
maintenance and preservation of the Collateral, including but not limited to
payments on premises leased by Debtor. Debtor agrees to reimburse Secured Party
on demand for any payment made, or any expense incurred by Secured Party
pursuant to the foregoing authorization. Secured Party may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, and without notice to Debtor, make payment of same or any
part thereof. Each amount so paid by Secured Party shall be secured by all
Collateral held by Secured Party. Nothing herein contained shall obligate
Secured Party to make such payment nor shall the making of one or more such
payments constitute (i) an agreement on Secured Party's part to take any further
or similar action or (ii) a waiver of any default by Debtor under the terms
thereof or of this Security Agreement.

     9. From time to time, Debtor will execute, deliver, acknowledge, file,
record or register, or cause to be filed, recorded or registered, any and all
notices, amendments, statements, certificates, documents or other instruments,
and take any and all other action which may be deemed necessary by Secured Party
hereunder.

     10. Debtor shall pay: (i) recording and filing fees, incurred by Secured
Party in connection with the Obligations; (ii) reasonable counsel fees and
expenses (incurred by Secured Party up to and including the date hereof in
connection with negotiations regarding and consultation concerning this
Agreement or any supplemental agreement, or preparation therefor, or the
financing extended thereunder; or; (iii) reasonable counsel fees and expenses
hereafter incurred by Secured Party in efforts to collect the Obligations, or in
the enforcement of any provisions of this Agreement or protecting, enforcing,
increasing or releasing any security held by Secured Party or any Obligation or
any provision of this Agreement or any supplemental agreement, or the financing
extended thereunder. The Debtor's obligation to pay such reasonable fees and
expenses of Secured Party shall exist whether or not proceedings are instituted
or legal appearances made in any court on behalf of Secured Party. The Debtor
agrees that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall constitute Obligations
upon their becoming due.

     11. The Debtor shall furnish to Secured Party the financial information set
forth in the Credit Agreement. Upon providing reasonable notice to the Debtor,
the Secured Party and its representatives shall be entitled to free and
undisturbed access to Debtor's books of account, ledgers and cabinets and may
examine and audit the contents thereof and make excerpts therefrom.

                                        4
<PAGE>

     12. Debtor will at all times hereafter maintain a standard and modern
system of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Debtor shall promptly notify Secured Party of any material adverse
change in its financial condition.

     13. At the request of Secured Party, Debtor will furnish Secured Party with
proof satisfactory to Secured Party of the payment or deposit of F.I.C.A. and
withholding taxes required of Debtor by applicable law. Such proof shall be
furnished within five (5) days after the due date established by law for each
such payment or deposit. Should Debtor fail to make any such payment or deposit
or furnish such proof, Secured Party may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
and without notice to Debtor, make payment of the same or any part thereof. Each
amount so paid by Secured Party shall be secured by all Collateral held by
Secured Party. Nothing herein contained shall obligate Secured Party to make
such payment nor shall the making of one or more such payments constitute (i) an
agreement on Secured Party's part to take any further or similar action or (ii)
a waiver of any default by Debtor under the terms hereof or of any other
agreements between Debtor and Secured Party.


DEFAULT PROVISIONS:

     Debtor hereby agrees that:

     14. Until a Default occurs, Debtor may have possession of the Collateral
and use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this Agreement and not
inconsistent with any policy of insurance thereon. If a Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Secured Party may transfer any of the Collateral into its
name or that of its nominee and may receive the income and any distribution
thereon and hold the same as collateral for the Obligations.

     15. Debtor shall be in default under this Agreement, a ("Default") upon the
occurrence of an "Event of Default" as defined in the Credit Agreement.

     16. Upon the happening of any Default specified above, Secured Party shall
have the right to declare all Obligations immediately due and payable and in
addition to its rights hereunder, all of the remedies of a secured party under
the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable law, and, further, Secured
Party may sell and deliver any or all Collateral and any or all other security
and collateral held by Secured Party or for Secured Party at public or private
sale, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as
Secured Party deems advisable, at Secured Party's sole discretion. In the event
Debtor commits a breach of any provision of this Agreement, in addition to all
other sums due Secured Party, Debtor will pay Secured Party all costs and
expenses incurred by Secured Party, in accordance with Section 10 hereof. Any
requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed postage
prepaid to Debtor at its address as set forth herein at least five (5) days
before the time of sale or other disposition. Secured Party may be the purchaser
at any such sale, if it is public, and, in the event Secured Party is the
purchaser, Secured Party shall have all the rights of a good faith, bona fide
purchaser for value from a secured party after default. The proceeds of sale
shall be applied first to all costs and expenses of sale, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, and second to the payment (in whatever order Secured Party
elects) of all Obligations, and any remaining proceeds shall be applied in
accordance with the provisions of Part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial
Code. Debtor shall remain liable to Secured Party for any deficiency.

     17. Upon Default, Secured Party shall have the right to take possession of
its Collateral and to maintain such possession on Debtor's premises or to remove
the Collateral or any part thereof to such

                                        5
<PAGE>

places as it may desire. If Secured Party exercises its right to take possession
of its Collateral, Debtor will, upon Secured Party's demand, assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place reasonably
convenient to both parties.

     18. No course of dealing between Debtor and Secured Party and no failure to
exercise or delay in exercising on the part of Secured Party any right, power or
privilege under the terms of this Agreement or under the terms of any other
agreements, instruments or other documents between Secured Party and Debtor
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided herein or in any
other agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of or in derogation of any
rights or remedies provided in and thereof, by law or otherwise.

     19. All rights of Secured Party in, to and under this Agreement and in and
to the Collateral shall pass to and may be exercised by any assignee thereof.


AGREEMENTS AND WAIVERS:

     20. All rights of Secured Party hereunder shall inure to the benefit of its
successors and assigns, and all obligations of Debtor shall bind the successors
and assigns of Debtor.

     21. All Collateral described in this Agreement shall remain collateral as
security for the performance of all obligations of Debtor under this Agreement
until all monies required to be paid under this Agreement have been paid in full
and all obligations on the part of Debtor to be paid, kept and performed under
this Agreement have been paid, kept and performed. At such time as all monies
required to be paid under this Agreement have been paid in full and all
obligations on the part of Debtor to be paid, kept and performed under this
Agreement have been paid, kept and performed, the Secured Party shall release
all liens on the Collateral and terminate all financing statements filed for the
benefit of the Secured Party covering the Collateral.

     22. Debtor hereby waives such rights as it may have to notice and/or
hearing under any applicable federal or state laws pertaining to the exercise by
Secured Party of such rights as the Secured Party may have regarding the right
to seek prejudgment remedies and/or deprive Debtor or any Guarantor of or affect
the use of or possession or enjoyment of Debtor's property prior to the
rendition of a final judgment against the Debtor. The Debtor further waives any
right it may have to require Secured Party to provide a bond or other security
as a precondition to or in connection with any prejudgment remedy sought by
Secured Party, and waives any objection to the issuance of such prejudgment
remedy based on any offsets, claims, defenses or counterclaims to any action
brought by the Secured Party.

     23. DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND
INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED
HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER
DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF
CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF
ANY PARTY. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR SECURED PARTY TO
ACCEPT this AGREEMENT.

                                        6
<PAGE>

     24. Debtor hereby agrees that the courts of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any claims
or disputes between Debtor and Secured Party pertaining directly or indirectly
to this Agreement or to any matter arising in connection with this Agreement.
Debtor expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any
action or proceeding commenced in such courts, hereby waiving personal service
of the summons and complaint, or other process or papers issued therein, and
agreeing that service of such summons and complaint, or other process or papers,
may instead be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Debtor at the
address set forth herein. Should Debtor fail to appear or answer any summons,
complaint, process or papers so served within thirty (30) days after the mailing
thereof, it shall be deemed in default and an order and/or judgment may be
entered against it as demanded or prayed for in such summons, complaint, process
or papers. The exclusive choice of forum set forth herein shall not be deemed to
preclude the enforcement of any judgment obtained in such forum or the taking of
any action under this Agreement to enforce the same in any appropriate
jurisdiction.

     25. Debtor hereby grants to Secured Party a lien, security interest and a
right of setoff as security for all of the Obligations, upon and against all
deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession,
custody, safekeeping or control of Secured Party or any entity under the control
of Secured Party, or in transit to any of them. At any time a Default has
occurred and is continuing, without demand or notice, Secured Party may set off
the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation
of Debtor regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the
Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE SECURED PARTY TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS
OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS,
PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS
OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE DEBTOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND
IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present
or future security for, or guarantees of, the Obligations or to resort to any
such security or guarantee in any particular order and the Debtor waives to the
fullest extent that it lawfully can, (a) any right it might have to require the
Secured Party to pursue any particular remedy before proceeding against the
Secured Party and (b) any right to the benefit of, or to direct the application
of the proceeds of any collateral until the Obligations are paid in full.

     26. All terms used in this Agreement and in all documents referred to
herein and which have been defined in Articles 1, 2 or 9, of the Uniform
Commercial Code, shall be interpreted and construed in light of the sections,
the definitions, the "official comment," and the definitional and substantive
cross-references of the Uniform Commercial Code, as the same may be amended.

     27. 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
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, including its conflict of laws principles. This
Agreement may not be amended or modified orally and may only be amended or
modified in writing signed by both the Secured Party and the Debtor.

     28. All exhibits referred to herein and annexed hereto are hereby
incorporated in this Agreement and made a part hereof. All headings herein are
for reference only.
