Liabilities and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its
covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. This security interest
constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in the presently existing
Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in
Collateral acquired after the date hereof, in each case, to the extent that a
security interest in such Collateral can be perfected by the filing of a
financing statement or, in the case of Collateral consisting of instruments,
documents, chattel paper or certificated securities, to the extent that Lender
takes possession of such Collateral. Notwithstanding termination of this
Agreement, Lender's lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as
any Liabilities remain unsatisfied.

time to time execute and deliver to Lender, at the request of Lender, all
Collateral, all financing statements and other documents or instruments that
Lender may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Lender, to perfect and

fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents.

         6.3. Right to Inspect. Lender (through any of it officers, employees,
or agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, from time to time
during Borrower's usual business hours, to inspect Borrower's books and records
and to make copies thereof and to check, test, and appraise the Collateral in
order to verify Borrower's financial condition or the amount, condition of, or
any other matter relating to, the Collateral.

         6.4. Lender's Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby appoints Lender or any
officer of Lender as Borrower's attorney in fact with full power of substitution
for purposes of executing and endorsing such documents and instruments,
including Consumer Installment Loan Documents, in Borrower's name, as may be
necessary to perfect Lender's security interest in the Collateral and to effect
the sale of the Collateral as hereinafter provided, which power of attorney is
coupled with an interest and irrevocable.

7.       DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

         7.1. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following events

Liabilities.

situation which, in the discretion of Lender, constitutes a danger to or
impairment of Lender's security interest.

in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Lender under the Loan
Documents and applicable law, Lender shall have the following rights and
remedies:

                  (a) Acceleration. Lender may declare the Note and all other
Liabilities to be immediately due and payable.

                  (b) No Further Advances or Withdrawals. Lender may refuse to
make any further advance of Loan Proceeds.

                  (c) Restriction on Advances. Lender may restrict advances of
Loan Proceeds to such amounts and for such purposes as Lender deems appropriate
under the circumstances then prevailing.

                  (d) Protect Security Interest. Without notice to or demand
upon Borrower, make such payments and do such acts as Lender considers necessary
or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower
agrees to assemble the Collateral if Lender so requires, and to make the
Collateral available to Lender as Lender may designate. Borrower authorizes
Lender to enter the premises where Collateral is located, to take and maintain
possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest,
or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Lender's determination
appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses
incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower's premises,
Borrower hereby grants Lender a license to enter such premises and to occupy the
same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Lender's rights or remedies
provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise.

                  (e) Lender May Prepare Collateral for Sale. Lender may ship,
reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, and
advertise for sale, the Collateral.

at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or
transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including
Borrower's premises) as Lender determines is commercially reasonable, and apply
the proceeds thereof to the Liabilities in whatever manner or order Lender deems
appropriate.

                  (g) Lender May Credit Bid.  Lender may credit bid and purchase
at any public  sale,  or at any private  sale as permitted by law.

                  (h) Payment of Deficiency by Borrower. Any deficiency that
exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided herein will be paid
immediately by Borrower.

                  (i) Other. Lender may pursue such other remedies provided for
in the Loan Documents or permitted by law, which Lender may deem appropriate, it
being specifically understood and agreed that any remedies may be exercised in
the alternative or cumulatively in the sole discretion of Lender.
