      WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, pursuant to a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of the
date hereof (as amended, modified, restated or otherwise supplemented from time
to time, the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT") Grantor is issuing certain Senior Secured
Promissory Notes (the "NOTES") to the Purchasers identified in the Purchase
Agreement; and

      WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the purchasing of the Notes that
Grantor shall have granted a first priority security interest, pledge and lien
on Grantor' assets and properties and the proceeds thereof to Collateral Agent
for the benefit of those Purchasers and their successors, heirs and assigns
("NOTEHOLDERS"); and

      WHEREAS, simultaneously with the issuance of the notes, Grantor is issuing
certain other notes ("OTHER NOTES") that have payment terms and collateral that
are subordinate to the Notes; and

      WHEREAS, it is also a condition precedent to the purchasing of the Notes
that the Noteholders and the Collateral Agent enter into a Collateral Agency

which the Noteholders and the holders of the Other Notes appoint Collateral
Agent as their agent with respect to the collateral for, and certain of their
rights and remedies relating to, the Notes and the Other Notes; and

      WHEREAS, it is also a condition precedent to the purchasing of the Notes
that the Noteholders, the Collateral Agent and the holders of the Other Notes
enter into an Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement (the "INTERCREDITOR
AGREEMENT") that, among other things, confirms that the Notes, and the
collateral for the Notes, are senior in priority to the Other Notes and the
collateral for the Other Notes.

the Purchasers to purchase the Notes, Grantor hereby agrees with Collateral
Agent as follows:

prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor shall
have the right to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any
Account, or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, or
allow any credit or discount thereon, all in accordance with its customary
practices. In connection with such collections, Grantor may, upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, take (and at the direction
of Collateral Agent shall take) such action as Grantor or Collateral Agent may
reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Accounts;
provided, that following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event
of Default, Collateral Agent shall have the right to notify the account debtors
or obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to Collateral
Agent and to direct such account debtors or obligors to make payment of all
amounts due or to become due to Grantor thereunder directly to Collateral Agent
and, upon such notification and at the expense of Grantor, to enforce collection
of any such Accounts, and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment
thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as Grantor might have done.
After receipt by Grantor of the notice referred to in the proviso to the
preceding sentence, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including instruments)
received by Grantor in respect of the Accounts shall be received in trust for
the benefit of Collateral Agent (for the ratable benefit of Noteholders)
hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of Grantor and shall be
forthwith paid over to Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with
any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash collateral and either (A) released
to Grantor if such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived or (B) if
such Event of Default shall be continuing, applied as provided by Section 15
hereof, and (ii) Grantor shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or
payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any account debtor or
obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon.

      SECTION 8. AS TO TRADEMARKS, PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, PATENT LICENSES AND
COPYRIGHT LICENSES.

      (a) Grantor shall, either itself or through licensees, continue to use the
Trademarks as each is currently used in Grantor's business in order to maintain
the Trademarks in full force free from any claim of abandonment for nonuse, and
(ii) with respect to any Trademark constituting Collateral that Grantor has
reasonably determined to be useful and material to the conduct of Grantor's
business, Grantor will not (and will use its commercially reasonable best
efforts not to permit any licensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to
do any act whereby any Trademark may become invalidated, unless, in the cases of
clauses (i) and (ii), such failure to maintain or use a Trademark is not
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement).

      (b) Grantor will not do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby the
Patents or Copyrights may become abandoned or dedicated and Grantor shall notify
Collateral Agent immediately if it knows of any reason or has reason to know
that the application or registration of any of the Patents or Copyrights may
become abandoned or dedicated, unless such abandonment or dedication is not
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement).

      (c) Grantor will not, either itself or through any agent, employee,
licensee or designee, (i) file an application for the registration of any Patent
or Trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any similar
office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof or
(ii) file any assignment of any Patent or Trademark, which Grantor may acquire
from a third party, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any
similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision
thereof, unless Grantor shall, within 30 days after the date of such filing,
notify Collateral Agent thereof, and, upon request of Collateral Agent in the
exercise of its business judgment, execute and deliver any and all assignments,
agreements, instruments, documents and papers as Collateral Agent may request to
evidence Collateral Agent's interest in such Patent or Trademark and the
goodwill and general intangibles of Grantor relating thereto or represented
thereby, and Grantor hereby constitutes Collateral Agent its attorney-in- fact
to execute and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all lawful
acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; such power being
coupled with an interest is irrevocable until the Obligations are paid in full.

      (d) Grantor will take all necessary steps in any proceeding before the
United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or
any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision
thereof, in order to maintain in all material respects each registered
Trademark, Patent and Copyright, and to pursue each application for registration
of any Trademark, Patent and Copyright not listed on Schedules 3, 4 and 5
hereto, including, without limitation, filing of renewals, payment of
maintenance fees, filing of affidavits of use, filing of affidavits of
incontestability and opposition, and participation in opposition, interference
and cancellation proceedings.

      (e) Grantor will perform all acts and execute and deliver all further
instruments and documents, including, without limitation, financing statements
or security agreements in form suitable for filing with the United States Patent
and Trademark Office, and the United States Copyright Office, respectively,
reasonably requested by Collateral Agent at any time to

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

evidence, perfect, maintain, record and enforce Collateral Agent's interest in
all Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights or otherwise in furtherance of the
provisions of this Agreement, and Grantor hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to
execute and file one or more accurate financing statements (and similar
documents) or copies thereof or of this Agreement with respect to Patents,
Trademarks and Copyrights signed only by Collateral Agent.

      (f) Grantor will, upon acquiring knowledge of any use by any person of any
term or design likely to cause confusion with any Trademark, promptly notify
Collateral Agent of such use, and if requested by Collateral Agent, shall join
with Collateral Agent, at Grantor's expense, in such action as Collateral Agent,
in its reasonable discretion, may deem advisable for the protection of
Collateral Agent's interest in and to the Trademarks.

      (g) Grantor agrees that, should it obtain rights to any Patent, Trademark,
Copyright, Patent License or Copyright Licenses which is not now identified on
Schedules 3, 4 and 5, or become entitled to the benefit of any reissue,
division, continuation, renewal, extension, or continuation-in-part of any
Trademark, Patent, Copyright, Patent License or Copyright License, (i) Grantor
shall give prompt written notice thereof to Collateral Agent, (ii) the
provisions of Section 1 of this Agreement shall automatically apply to any such
Trademark, Patent, Copyright, Patent License or Copyright License, and (iii) any
such Trademark, Patent, Copyright, Patent License or Copyright License shall
automatically become part of the Collateral.

      (h) If Grantor becomes aware that any Trademark, Patent, Copyright, Patent
License or Copyright License is infringed or misappropriated by a third party,
Grantor shall promptly notify Collateral Agent and shall, if reasonably
requested by Collateral Agent, promptly sue for infringement or misappropriation
and for recovery of all damages caused by such infringement or misappropriation,
or, with the prior written consent of Collateral Agent, shall take such other
actions as Collateral Agent shall reasonably deem appropriate under the
circumstances to protect such Trademark, Patent, Copyright, Patent License or
Copyright License.

      (i) Grantor shall continue to use reasonable and proper statutory notice
in connection with its use of each registered Patent, Trademark and Copyright.

      (j) This Agreement is executed for collateral purposes only and upon
payment in full of the Obligations, Collateral Agent shall, at Grantor' expense,
execute and deliver to Grantor all deeds, assignments and other instruments as
may be necessary or proper to re-vest in Grantor full title to the Trademarks,
Patents, Copyrights, Patent License and Copyright Licenses, subject to any
disposition thereof which may have been made by Collateral Agent pursuant
hereto.

      SECTION 9. AS TO THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL; VOTING RIGHTS; DIVIDENDS; ETC.

      (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

            (i) Grantor shall be entitled to exercise or refrain from exercising
      any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged
      Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the
      terms of this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement;

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

            (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1 hereof, Grantor
      shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest or
      distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Collateral; provided, that
      any and all

                  (A) dividends, interest or distributions paid or payable other
            than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property
            received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in
            exchange for, any Pledged Collateral, and

                  (B) dividends, interest or distributions paid or payable in
            cash in respect of any Pledged Collateral in connection with a
            partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a
            reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in-surplus; and

                  (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed in redemption
            of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral;

shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to Collateral Agent, to hold as
Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by any of Grantor, be received in
trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property
or funds of Grantor, and be forthwith delivered to Collateral Agent as Pledged
Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement); and

            (iii) Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver (or cause to be
      executed and delivered) to Grantor all such proxies and other instruments
      as Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling Grantor to
      exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise
      pursuant to paragraph (i) above and to receive the dividends which it is
      authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) above;

      (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

            (i) all rights of Grantor to exercise the voting and other
      consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise
      pursuant to Section 9(a)(i) and to receive the dividends which it would
      otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 9(a)(ii)
      shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in
      Collateral Agent, who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such
      voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Pledged
      Collateral any such dividends; and

            (ii) all dividends which are received by Grantor contrary to the
      provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 9(b) shall be received in
      trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other
      funds of Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to Collateral Agent as
      Pledged Collateral in tie same form as so received (with any necessary
      endorsement).

      SECTION 10. INSURANCE. Maintain insurance with insurers in amounts and on
terms, reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent including: (i) liability
insurance naming Collateral Agent as additional insured, (ii) casualty and loss
insurance on all Grantor's assets for their full insurable value naming
Collateral Agent as sole loss payee, and (iii) such other insurance as

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

Collateral Agent may request. Grantor shall provide original policies and other
evidence of insurance upon request and in any event, at least 10 days prior to
the expiration of any existing policy, satisfactory to Collateral Agent. The
policies of insurance (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements
delivered to Collateral Agent) shall contain provisions pursuant to which the
insurer agrees to provide 30 days prior written notice to Collateral Agent in
the event of any cancellation, amendment, modification or non-renewal of any
such policy. Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to settle and
adjust all insurance claims relating to any casualty or loss and may, in its
sole discretion, apply the proceeds of any casualty and loss insurance against
the Obligations, except as provided in the next sentence. If no Event of Default
is continuing, and a casualty or loss involves Collateral having a value of
$50,000 or less, at Grantor's option those proceeds shall not be required to be
so applied to the Obligations to the extent (I) Grantor delivers a certificate
to Collateral Agent promptly following the casualty or loss stating that Grantor
intends to use those proceeds to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the assets
so destroyed or lost within 60 days of that casualty or loss and (II) those
proceeds are in fact used for that purpose within that period; provided, that if
Grantor shall not have completed that replacement, restoration, repair or
rebuilding within that period, Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, apply
any remaining insurance proceeds to the Obligations. Collateral Agent shall not
be obligated to release any insurance proceeds to Grantor while any Default is
continuing and unless arrangements have been made to assure that the proceeds
are used solely to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the Collateral to
Collateral Agent's satisfaction. To the extent not used to replace, repair,
restore or rebuild the Collateral or to the extent the conditions for Grantor's
use of the proceeds hereunder have not been satisfied, those insurance proceeds
may be applied to the Obligations in Collateral Agent's discretion.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all
insurance payments in respect of Inventory, Equipment and other Collateral shall
be held, applied and paid to Collateral Agent as specified in Section 15 hereof.

      SECTION 11. TRANSFERS TO OTHERS; LIENS; ADDITIONAL SHARES AND INTERESTS.

      (a) Grantor shall not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or
otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, except, so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, for sales of assets that are not
material in the ordinary course of business.

      (b) Grantor shall not create or suffer to exist any lien, security
interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the
Collateral to secure any obligation of any person or entity, except for the
security interest created by this Agreement, for Permitted Liens and source code
escrow arrangements entered into in the ordinary course of business.

      (c) Grantor agrees that it will (i) cause each of the Issuers that are
wholly-owned Subsidiaries not to issue any stock or other securities in addition
to or substitution for the Pledged Shares issued by such Issuer, except to
Grantor, and (ii) pledge hereunder, subject to the Foreign Issuer Limit,
immediately upon its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all
such additional shares of stock or other securities of each Issuer.

      (d) Grantor agrees that it will (i) cause each of the Partnerships, if
any, that are wholly-owned Subsidiaries not to issue any interests in addition
to or substitution for the Pledged Partnership Interests issued by such Issuer,
except to Grantor, and (ii) pledge hereunder, subject

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

to the Foreign Issuer Limit, immediately upon its acquisition (directly or
indirectly) thereof, any and all such additional interests of each Partnership.

      (e) Grantor agrees that it will (i) cause each of the LLCs that are
wholly-owned Subsidiaries not to issue any interests in addition to or
substitution for the Pledged LLC Interests issued by such LLC, except to Grantor
and (ii) pledge hereunder, subject to the Foreign Issuer Limit, immediately upon
its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all such additional
interests of each LLC.

      SECTION 12. COLLATERAL AGENT APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. Grantor hereby
irrevocably appoints Collateral Agent as Grantor's attorney-in-fact (which
appointment shall be irrevocable and deemed coupled with an interest), with full
authority in the place and stead of Grantor and in the name of Grantor or
otherwise, from time to time in Collateral Agent's discretion, upon and during
the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, to take any action and
to execute any instrument which Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable
to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

                  (i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to
            Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10 hereof,

                  (ii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound,
            receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to
            become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral,

                  (iii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other
            instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause
            (i) or (ii) above,

                  (iv) to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made
            payable to Grantor representing any dividend or other distribution
            in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to give
            full discharge for the same, and

                  (v) to file any claims or take any action or institute any
            proceedings which Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable
            for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce
            the rights of Collateral Agent with respect to any of the
            Collateral.

      SECTION 13. COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM. If Grantor fails to perform any
agreement contained herein, Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Collateral Agent incurred in
connection therewith shall be payable by Grantor under Section 16(b) hereof.

      SECTION 14. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following
shall be an "EVENT OF DEFAULT":

      (a) Any Event of Default (as defined in the Notes);

      (b) Any failure by Grantor to observe or perform any of the terms and
conditions of this Security Agreement;

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

      (c) Any transfer or disposition of any Collateral, except as expressly
permitted by this Security Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

      (d) Any attachment, execution or levy on any Collateral having a value in
excess of $25,000 in the aggregate;

      (e) Grantor shall fail to comply with, or become subject to any
administrative or judicial proceeding under any federal, state or local (i)
hazardous waste or environmental law, (ii) asset forfeiture or similar law which
can result in the forfeiture of property, or (iii) other law, where
noncompliance may, in Collateral Agent's reasonable judgment, have any adverse
effect on the Collateral or Collateral Agent's rights or remedies with respect
to the Collateral; or

      (f) There shall have occurred any default under any of the Other Notes
that would entitle the holders thereof to accelerate any of such Other Notes but
for the restrictions contained in the Intercreditor Agreement or the Collateral
Agency Agreement.

      SECTION 15. REMEDIES. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:

      (a) Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in
addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available
to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC
and also may (i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees that it will at
its expense and upon request of Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part
of the Collateral as directed by Collateral Agent and make it available to
Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by Collateral Agent which is
reasonably convenient to both parties and (ii) without notice except as
specified in the following sentence, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in
one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Collateral Agent's
offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such
price or prices and upon such other terms as Collateral Agent may deem
commercially reasonable. Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of such sale
shall be required by law, at least ten days' notice to Grantor 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. Collateral Agent shall not be
obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having
been given. Collateral Agent 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.

      (b) Collateral Agent may instruct Grantor not to make any further use of
the Patents, Copyrights or Trademarks or any mark similar thereto for any
purpose to the extent that such use would be inconsistent with the exercise by
Collateral Agent of any other remedies under this Section.

      (c) Collateral Agent may license, whether general, special or otherwise,
and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any of the Trademarks,
Patents or Copyrights throughout the world for such term or terms, on such
conditions, and in such manner, as Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion
determine.

      (d) Collateral Agent may (without assuming any obligations or liability
thereunder), at any time, enforce (and shall have the exclusive right to
enforce) against any licensee or

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

sublicensee all rights and remedies of Grantor in, to and under any one or more
license agreements with respect to the Collateral, and take or refrain from
taking any action under any thereof, and Grantor hereby releases Collateral
Agent from, and agrees to hold Collateral Agent free and harmless from and
against any claims arising out of, any action taken or omitted to be taken with
respect to any such license agreement.

      (e) In the event of any such license, assignment, sale or other
disposition of the Collateral, or any of it, Grantor shall supply its know-how
and expertise relating to the manufacture and sale of the products bearing or in
connection with the Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights, and its customer lists
and other records relating to the Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights and to the
distribution of said products, to Collateral Agent or its designee.

      (f) In order to implement the assignment, sale or other disposal of any of
the Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights, Collateral Agent may, at any time,
pursuant to the authority granted in Section 12 hereof, execute and deliver on
behalf of Grantor, one or more instruments of assignment of the Trademarks,
Patents or Copyrights (or any application of registration thereof), in form
suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.

      (g) All cash proceeds received by Collateral Agent in respect of any sale
of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral
may, in the discretion of Collateral Agent, be held by Collateral Agent as
collateral for, and then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any
amounts payable to Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 16 hereof) in whole or
in part against, all or any part of the Obligations in such order as Collateral
Agent shall elect. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by Collateral
Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the Obligations shall be paid
over to Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such
surplus.

      (h) If at any time when Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its
right to sell all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Section
15, such Pledged Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not be
effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and as from
time to time in effect, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the
"SECURITIES ACT"), Collateral Agent is hereby expressly authorized to sell such
Pledged Collateral or such part thereof by private sale in such manner and under
such circumstances as Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable in order
that such sale may legally be effected without such registration. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event Collateral Agent, in
compliance with applicable securities laws, (a) may proceed to make such private
sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of
registering such Pledged Collateral or such part thereof shall have been filed
under such Securities Act, (b) may approach and negotiate with a restricted
number of potential purchasers to effect such sale and (c) may restrict such
sale to purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment
intention including without limitation to purchasers each of whom will represent
and agree to the satisfaction of Collateral Agent that such purchaser is
purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the
distribution or sale of such Pledged Collateral, or part thereof, it being
understood that Collateral Agent may cause or require Grantor, and Grantor
hereby agrees upon the written request of Collateral Agent, to cause (i) a
legend or legends to be placed on the certificates to be delivered to such
purchasers to the effect that the Pledged Collateral represented thereby have
not been registered under the Securities Act and setting forth

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

or referring to restrictions on the transferability of such securities; and (ii)
the issuance of stop transfer instructions to such Issuer's transfer agent, if
any, with respect to the Pledged Collateral, or, if such Issuer transfers its
own securities, a notation in the appropriate records of such Issuer. In the
event of any such sale, Grantor does hereby consent and agree that Collateral
Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of
the Pledged Collateral at a price which Collateral Agent may deem reasonable
under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially
higher price might be realized if the sale were public and deferred until after
registration as aforesaid.

      (i) For the purpose of enabling Collateral Agent to exercise rights and
remedies under this Agreement, (including in order to take possession of, hold,
preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or
otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as Collateral Agent shall be
lawfully entitled to exercise those rights and remedies, Grantor hereby grants
to Collateral Agent, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without
payment of royalty or other compensation to Grantor) to use, license or
sublicense any Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, licenses, names and General
Intangibles of any kind now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor, and wherever
the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in
which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer
software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

      SECTION 16. INDEMNITY AND EXPENSES.

      (a) Grantor agrees to indemnify Collateral Agent from and against any and
all claims, losses and liabilities growing out of or resulting from this
Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except
claims, losses or liabilities directly arising from Collateral Agent's own gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

      (b) Grantor will upon demand pay to Collateral Agent the amount of any and
all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its
counsel and of any experts and agents, which Collateral Agent may incur in
connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody,
preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of
any of the rights of Collateral Agent hereunder or (iv) the failure by any of
Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

      (c) Grantor assume all responsibility and liability arising from the use
of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights, and Grantor hereby indemnify and hold
Collateral Agent harmless from and against any claim, suit, loss, damage or
expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of any alleged defect
in any product manufactured, promoted or sold by any of Grantor in connection
with any Trademark or out of the manufacture, promotion, labeling, sale or
advertisement of any such product by any of Grantor except as the same may have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Collateral Agent.

      (d) Grantor agree that Collateral Agent does not assume, and shall have no
responsibility for, the payment of any sums due or to become due under any
agreement or contract included in the Collateral or the performance of any
obligations to be performed under or with respect to any such agreement or
contract by any of Grantor, and except as the same may have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Collateral Agent, Grantor

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

hereby agree to indemnify and hold Collateral Agent harmless with respect to any
and all claims by any person relating thereto.

      SECTION 17. SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE. All rights of Collateral Agent and
security interests hereunder, and all obligations of Grantor hereunder, shall be
absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any circumstance which might
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any guarantor or other
obligor in respect of the Obligations.

      SECTION 18. AMENDMENTS; ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, nor any consent to any departure by any of Grantor herefrom,
shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed
by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given.

      SECTION 19. NOTICES. All notices, consents, requests, and other
communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be effective:
(i) upon delivery by hand; (ii) one day after being deposited with a recognized

      SECTION 20. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST. This Agreement shall create a
continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full
force and effect until final and indefeasible payment in full of the
Obligations, (ii) be binding upon Grantor, its successors and assigns and (iii)
inure, together with the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent hereunder, to

and all rights to the Collateral shall revert and be deemed reassigned to

recourse, representation or warranty of any kind.

Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest and the interests of
Noteholders in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise
any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the safe custody
of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually
received by it hereunder, Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any
Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against
prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral, including,
without limitation, ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls,
conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any
Pledged Collateral, whether or not Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have
knowledge of such matters.
