          2.   Further Assurances.  At any time and from time to time at the
               ------------------
request of Secured Party, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Secured Party all
such financing statements and other instruments and documents in form and
substance satisfactory to Secured Party as shall be necessary or desirable to
fully perfect, when filed and/or recorded, Secured Party's security interests
granted pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement, provided that nothing contained
herein shall require the Lien of this Agreement to be prior to that of the 13%
Indenture and the collateral documents securing the same to the extent that such
Indebtedness is permitted by the terms of the Loan Agreement. It is hereby
acknowledged and agreed that, notwithstanding anything contained herein or in
any other Collateral Document, Grantor shall not be required under any
circumstance to take any further action to perfect any interest granted to
Secured Party in any cage cash, deposit accounts, markers, instruments or other
cash items which are used in connection with the casino operations of Grantor.
At any time and from time to time, Secured Party shall be entitled to file
and/or record any or all such financing statements, instruments and documents
held by it, and any or all such further financing statements, documents and
instruments, and to take all such other actions, as Secured Party may deem
appropriate to perfect and to maintain perfected the security interests granted
in Section 3 of this Agreement.  Before and after the occurrence of any Event of
Default, at Secured Party's request, Grantor shall execute all such further
financing statements, instruments and documents, and shall do all such further
acts and things, as may be deemed necessary or desirable by Secured Party to
create and perfect, and to continue and preserve, an indefeasible security
interest in the Collateral in favor of Secured Party, or the priority thereof.
With respect to any Collateral consisting of instruments, documents,
certificates of title or the like, as to which Secured Party's security interest
need be perfected by, or the priority thereof need be assured by, possession of
such Collateral, Grantor will upon demand of Secured Party deliver possession of
same in pledge to Secured Party.  With respect to any Collateral consisting of
securities, instruments, partnership or joint venture interests or the like,
Grantor hereby consents and agrees that the issuers of, or obligors on, any such
Collateral, or any registrar or transfer agent or trustee for any such
Collateral, shall be entitled to accept the provisions of this Agreement as
conclusive evidence of the right of Secured Party to effect any transfer or
exercise any right hereunder or with respect to any such Collateral,

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

notwithstanding any other notice or direction to the contrary heretofore or
hereafter given by Grantor or any other Person to such issuers or such obligors
or to any such registrar or transfer agent or trustee.

          3.   Security Agreement.  For valuable consideration, Grantor hereby
               ------------------
assigns and pledges to Secured Party, and grants to Secured Party a security
interest in, all presently existing and hereafter acquired Collateral, as
security for the timely payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and
each of them.  This Agreement is a continuing and irrevocable agreement and all
the rights, powers, privileges and remedies hereunder shall apply to any and all
Secured Obligations, including those arising under successive transactions which
shall either continue the Secured Obligations, increase or decrease them, or
from time to time create new Secured Obligations after all or any prior Secured
Obligations have been satisfied, and notwithstanding the bankruptcy of Grantor
or any other Person or any other event or proceeding affecting any Person.

          4.   Grantor's Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  Except as
               ----------------------------------------- ----------   ------
otherwise disclosed to Secured Party in writing concurrently herewith, Grantor
represents, warrants and agrees that: (a) Grantor will pay, prior to
delinquency, all taxes, charges, Liens and assessments against the portion of
the Collateral owned by it, except such as are timely contested in good faith,
                            ------
and upon its failure to pay or so contest such taxes, charges, Liens and
assessments, Secured Party at its option may pay any of them, and Secured Party
shall be the sole judge of the legality or validity thereof and the amount
necessary to discharge the same; (b) the Collateral will not be used for any
unlawful purpose or in material violation of any Law, regulation or ordinance,
nor used in any way that will void or impair any insurance required to be
carried in connection therewith; (c) Grantor will, to the extent consistent with
good business practice, keep the portion of the Collateral owned by it in
reasonably good repair, working order and condition, and from time to time make
all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and
improvements thereto and, as appropriate and applicable, will otherwise deal
with such portion of the Collateral in all such ways as are considered good
practice by owners of like Property; (d) Grantor will take all reasonable steps
to preserve and protect the Collateral; (e) Grantor will maintain, with
responsible insurance companies, insurance covering the Collateral against such
insurable losses as is required by the Loan Agreement and as is consistent with
sound business practice, and will cause Secured Party to be designated as an
additional insured and loss payee with respect to all insurance (whether or not
required by the Loan Agreement), will obtain the written agreement of the
insurers that such insurance shall not be canceled, terminated or materially
modified to the detriment of Secured Party without at least 30 days prior
written notice to Secured Party, and will furnish copies of such insurance
policies or certificates to Secured Party promptly upon request therefor; (f)
Grantor will promptly notify Secured Party in writing in the event of any
substantial or material damage to the Collateral from any source whatsoever,
and, except for the disposition of collections and other proceeds of the
     ------
Collateral permitted by Section 6 hereof, Grantor will not remove or permit to
be removed any part of the Collateral from the

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

State of Nevada without the prior written consent of Secured Party, except for
                                                                    ------
such items of the Collateral as are removed in the ordinary course of business
or in connection with any transaction or disposition otherwise permitted by the
Loan Documents; and (g) in the event Grantor changes its name or its address as
either are set forth herein or in the Loan Agreement, Grantor will notify
Secured Party of such name and/or address change promptly, but in any event,
within thirty days.

          5.   Secured Party's Rights Re Collateral.  If an Event of Default has
               ------------------------------------
occurred and remains continuing, then at any time without notice or demand and
at the sole expense of Grantor (or if no Event of Default is continuing, at
Secured Party's sole expense and upon reasonable advance notice and at any time
during regular business hours and as often as reasonably requested (but not so
as to materially interfere with the business of Grantor or any of its
Subsidiaries)), Secured Party may, to the extent it may be necessary or
desirable to protect the security hereunder, but Secured Party shall not be
obligated to: (a) enter upon any premises on which Collateral is situated and
examine the same or (b) perform any obligation of Grantor under this Agreement
or any obligation of any other Person under the Loan Documents.  At any time and
from time to time, at the expense of Grantor, Secured Party may, to the extent
it may be necessary or desirable to protect the security hereunder, but Secured
Party shall not be obligated to:  (i) notify obligors on the Collateral that the
Collateral has been assigned to Secured Party; (ii) at any time and from time to
time request from obligors on the Collateral, in the name of Grantor or in the
name of Secured Party, information concerning the Collateral and the amounts
owing thereon; and (iii) while an Event of Default is continuing (and subject to
any inconsistent rights of the Trustee under the 13% Indenture) cause the
Collateral to be registered in the name of Secured Party, as legal owner.
Grantor shall at any time at Secured Party's request mark the Collateral and/or
Grantor's ledger cards, books of account and other records relating to the
Collateral with appropriate notations satisfactory to Secured Party disclosing
that they are subject to Secured Party's security interests.   Secured Party
shall be under no duty or obligation whatsoever to take any action to protect or
preserve the Collateral or any rights of Grantor therein, or to make collections
or enforce payment thereon, or to participate in any foreclosure or other
proceeding in connection therewith.

          6.   Collections on the Collateral.  Except as otherwise provided in
               -----------------------------   ------
any Loan Document, Grantor shall have the right to use and to continue to make
collections on and receive dividends and other proceeds of all of the Collateral
in the ordinary course of business so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, at the option of Secured Party, Grantor's right to make
collections on and receive dividends and other proceeds of the Collateral and to
use or dispose of such collections and proceeds shall terminate, and (subject to
any prior rights of the Trustee under the 13% Indenture) any and all dividends,
proceeds and collections, including all partial or total prepayments, then held
or thereafter received on or on account of the Collateral will be held or
received by Grantor in trust for Secured Party

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

and immediately delivered in kind to Secured Party. Any remittance received by
Grantor from any Person shall be presumed to relate to the Collateral and to be
subject to Secured Party's security interests. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the right at
all times (subject to any inconsistent rights of the Trustee under the 13%
Indenture) to receive, receipt for, endorse, assign, deposit and deliver, in the
name of Secured Party or in the name of Grantor, any and all checks, notes,
drafts and other instruments for the payment of money constituting proceeds of
or otherwise relating to the Collateral; and Grantor hereby authorizes Secured
Party to affix, by facsimile signature or otherwise, the general or special
endorsement of it, in such manner as Secured Party shall deem advisable, to any
such instrument in the event the same has been delivered to or obtained by
Secured Party without appropriate endorsement, and Secured Party and any
collecting bank are hereby authorized to consider such endorsement to be a
sufficient, valid and effective endorsement by Grantor, to the same extent as
though it were manually executed by the duly authorized officer of Grantor,
regardless of by whom or under what circumstances or by what authority such
facsimile signature or other endorsement actually is affixed, without duty of
inquiry or responsibility as to such matters, and Grantor hereby expressly
waives demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest or dishonor and all
other notices of every kind and nature with respect to any such instrument.

          7.   Possession of Collateral by Secured Party.   Any or all of the
               -----------------------------------------
Collateral delivered to Secured Party consisting of Cash shall be held in an
interest-bearing account and, when an Event of Default exists, Secured Party
may, in its discretion, apply any such interest to payment of the Secured
Obligations.  Nothing herein shall obligate Secured Party to invest any
Collateral or obtain any particular return thereon.  Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, whenever any of the Collateral is
in Secured Party's possession, custody or control, Secured Party may use,
operate and consume the Collateral, whether for the purpose of preserving and/or
protecting the Collateral or for the purpose of performing any of Grantor's
obligations with respect thereto.  Secured Party may at any time deliver or
redeliver the Collateral or any part thereof to Grantor, and the receipt of any
of the same by Grantor shall be complete and full acquittance for the Collateral
so delivered, and Secured Party thereafter shall be discharged from any
liability or responsibility therefor.  So long as Secured Party exercises
reasonable care with respect to any Collateral in its possession, custody or
control, Secured Party shall have no liability for any loss of or damage to such
Collateral, and in no event shall Secured Party have liability for any
diminution in value of Collateral occasioned by economic or market conditions or
events.  Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care within
the meaning of the preceding sentence if the Collateral in the possession,
custody or control of Secured Party is accorded treatment substantially equal to
that which Secured Party accords its own property, it being understood that
Secured Party shall not have any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking
action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or
other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not Secured Party has or is
deemed to have knowledge

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against
any Person with respect to any Collateral.

          8.   Events of Default.  There shall be an Event of Default hereunder
               -----------------
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the
Loan Agreement.

          9.   Rights Upon Event of Default.  Upon the occurrence and during the
               ----------------------------
continuance of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have, in any
jurisdiction where enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights
and remedies that Secured Party may have under applicable Law or in equity or
under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all rights set forth in
                      ---------
Section 6 hereof) or under any other Loan Document, all rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in any jurisdiction,
and, in addition, the following rights and remedies, all of which may be
exercised with or without notice to Grantor and without affecting the
Obligations of Grantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or the
enforceability of the Liens and security interests created hereby: (a) to
foreclose the Liens and security interests created hereunder or under any other
agreement relating to any Collateral by any available judicial procedure or
without judicial process; (b) to enter any premises where any Collateral may be
located for the purpose of securing, protecting, inventorying, appraising,
inspecting, repairing, preserving, storing, preparing, processing, taking
possession of or removing the same; (c) to sell, assign, lease or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral or any part thereof, either at public or private sale
or at any broker's board, in lot or in bulk, for cash, on credit or otherwise,
with or without representations or warranties and upon such terms as shall be
acceptable to Secured Party; (d) to notify obligors on the Collateral that the
Collateral has been assigned to Secured Party and that all payments thereon are
to be made directly and exclusively to Secured Party; (e) to collect by legal
proceedings or otherwise all dividends, distributions, interest, principal or
other sums now or hereafter payable upon or on account of the Collateral; (f) to
cause the Collateral to be registered in the name of Secured Party, as legal
owner; (g) to enter into any extension, reorganization, deposit, merger or
consolidation agreement, or any other agreement relating to or affecting the
Collateral, and in connection therewith Secured Party may deposit or surrender
control of the Collateral and/or accept other Property in exchange for the
Collateral; (h) to settle, compromise or release, on terms acceptable to Secured
Party, in whole or in part, any amounts owing on the Collateral and/or any
disputes with respect thereto; (i) to extend the time of payment, make
allowances and adjustments and issue credits in connection with the Collateral
in the name of Secured Party or in the name of Grantor; (j) to enforce payment
and prosecute any action or proceeding with respect to any or all of the
Collateral and take or bring, in the name of Secured Party or in the name of
Grantor, any and all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed by Secured
Party necessary or desirable to effect collection of or to realize upon the
Collateral, including any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure thereof or
            ---------
thereon, and Grantor specifically consents to any nonjudicial foreclosure of any
or all of the Collateral or any other action taken by Secured Party which may
release any obligor

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

from personal liability on any of the Collateral, and Grantor waives any right
not expressly provided for in this Agreement to receive notice of any public or
private judicial or nonjudicial sale or foreclosure of any security or any of
the Collateral; and any money or other property received by Secured Party in
exchange for or on account of the Collateral, whether representing collections
or proceeds of Collateral, and whether resulting from voluntary payments or
foreclosure proceedings or other legal action taken by Secured Party or Grantor
may be applied by Secured Party without notice to Grantor to the Secured
Obligations in such order and manner as Secured Party in its sole discretion
shall determine; (k) to insure, process and preserve the Collateral; (l) to
exercise all rights, remedies, powers or privileges provided under any of the
Loan Documents; (m) to remove, from any premises where the same may be located,
the Collateral and any and all documents, instruments, files and records, and
any receptacles and cabinets containing the same, relating to the Collateral,
and Secured Party may, at the cost and expense of Grantor, use such of its
supplies, equipment, facilities and space at its places of business as may be
necessary or appropriate to properly administer, process, store, control,
prepare for sale or disposition and/or sell or dispose of the portion of the
Collateral owned by Grantor or to properly administer and control the handling
of collections and realizations thereon, and Secured Party shall be deemed to
have a rent-free tenancy of premises of Grantor for such purposes and for such
periods of time as reasonably required by Secured Party; (n) to receive, open
and dispose of all mail addressed to Grantor and notify postal authorities to
change the address for delivery thereof to such address as Secured Party may
designate; provided that Secured Party agrees that it will promptly deliver over
           --------
to Grantor such opened mail as does not relate to the Collateral; and (o) to
exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies of an owner of the
Collateral; all at Secured Party's sole option and as Secured Party in its sole
discretion may deem advisable. Grantor will, at Secured Party's request,
assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at places which
Secured Party may designate, whether at the premises of Grantor or elsewhere,
and will make available to Secured Party, free of cost, all premises, equipment
and facilities of Grantor for the purpose of Secured Party's taking possession
of the Collateral or storing same or removing or putting the Collateral in
salable form or selling or disposing of same.

          Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Secured Party also shall have the right, without notice or demand, either in
person, by agent or by a receiver to be appointed by a court (and Grantor hereby
expressly consents upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default to the appointment of such a receiver), and without regard to the
adequacy of any security for the Secured Obligations, to take possession of the
Collateral or any part thereof and to collect and receive the rents, issues,
profits, income and proceeds thereof. Taking possession of the Collateral shall
not cure or waive any Event of Default or notice thereof or invalidate any act
done pursuant to such notice. The rights, remedies and powers of any receiver
appointed by a court shall be as ordered by said court.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

          Any public or private sale or other disposition of the Collateral may
be held at any office of Secured Party, or at Grantor's places of business, or
at any other place permitted by applicable Law, and without the necessity of the
Collateral's being within the view of prospective purchasers.  The Secured Party
may also request, in connection therewith, the Nevada Gaming Commission to
petition a District Court of the State of Nevada for the appointment of a
supervisor to conduct the normal gaming activities on the premises following the
appointment of a receiver.  Secured Party may direct the order and manner of
sale of the Collateral, or portions thereof, as it in its sole and absolute
discretion may determine, and Grantor expressly waives any right to direct the
order and manner of sale of any Collateral. Secured Party or any Person on
Secured Party's behalf may bid and purchase at any such sale or other
disposition.  The net cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation,
sale, lease or other disposition of the Collateral shall be applied, first, to
the expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) of
retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale or lease, selling,
leasing, collecting, liquidating and the like, and then to the satisfaction of
the Secured Obligations in such order as shall be determined by Secured Party in
its sole and absolute discretion.  Grantor and any other Person then obligated
therefor shall pay to Secured Party on demand any deficiency with regard thereto
which may remain after such sale, disposition, collection or liquidation of the
Collateral.  Any surplus held by the Security Party and remaining after payment
in full of all the Secured Obligations shall immediately be reassigned and
redelivered to Grantor, or to the person or persons otherwise legally entitled
thereto.

          Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily
in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Secured Party
will send or otherwise make available to Grantor reasonable notice of the time
and place of any public sale thereof or of the time on or after which any
private sale thereof is to be made.  The requirement of sending reasonable
notice conclusively shall be met if such notice is mailed, first class mail,
postage prepaid, to Grantor at its address set forth in the Loan Agreement, or
delivered or otherwise sent to Grantor, at least ten (10) days before the date
of the sale.  Grantor expressly waives any right to receive notice of any public
or private sale of any Collateral or other security for the Secured Obligations

except as expressly provided for in this paragraph.
------

          With respect to any Collateral consisting of securities, partnership
interests, joint venture interests, Investments or the like, and whether or not
any of such Collateral has been effectively registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, or other applicable Laws, Secured Party may, in its sole
and absolute discretion, sell all or any part of such Collateral at private sale
in such manner and under such circumstances as provided in the Uniform
Commercial Code of California.  Without limiting the foregoing, Secured Party
may (i) approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers,
and (ii) restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will
represent and agree that they are purchasing such Collateral for their own
account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale
thereof.  In the event that any such Collateral is sold at private sale,

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

Grantor agrees that if such Collateral is sold for a price which Secured Party
in good faith believes to be reasonable under the circumstances then existing,
then (a) the sale shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable in all respects,
(b) Grantor shall not be entitled to a credit against the Secured Obligations in
an amount in excess of the purchase price, and (c) Secured Party shall not incur
any liability or responsibility to Grantor in connection therewith,
notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have
been realized at a public sale. Grantor recognizes that a ready market may not
exist for such Collateral if it is not regularly traded on a recognized
securities exchange, and that a sale by Secured Party of any such Collateral for
an amount substantially less than a pro rata share of the fair market value of
the issuer's assets minus liabilities may be commercially reasonable in view of
the difficulties that may be encountered in attempting to sell a large amount of
such Collateral or Collateral that is privately traded.

          Upon consummation of any sale of Collateral hereunder, Secured Party
shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or
purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold.  Each such purchaser at any such sale
shall hold the Collateral so sold absolutely free from any claim or right upon
the part of Grantor or any other Person, and Grantor hereby waives (to the
extent permitted by applicable Laws) all rights of redemption, stay and
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.  If the sale of all or any
part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, Secured Party
shall not be required to apply any portion of the sale price to the Secured
Obligations until such amount actually is received by Secured Party, and any
Collateral so sold may be retained by Secured Party until the sale price is paid
in full by the purchaser or purchasers thereof.  Secured Party shall not incur
any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to pay for the
Collateral so sold, and, in case of any such failure, the Collateral may be sold
again.

          10.  Voting Rights; Dividends; etc.  With respect to any Collateral
               -----------------------------
consisting of securities, partnership interests, joint venture interests,
Investments or the like (referred to collectively and individually in this
Section 10 and in Section 11 as the "Investment Collateral"), so long as no
                                     ---------------------
Event of Default occurs and remains continuing:

                  10.1 Voting Rights.  Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any
                       -------------
and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Investment
Collateral, or any part thereof, for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms
of this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, or the other Loan Documents; provided,
                                                                    --------
however, that Grantor shall not exercise, or shall refrain from exercising, any
-------
such right if it would result in a Default.

                  10.2 Dividend and Distribution Rights.  Except as otherwise
                       --------------------------------
provided in any Loan Document, Grantor shall be entitled to receive and to
retain and use any and all dividends or distributions paid in respect of the
Investment Collateral; provided, however, that (subject to any inconsistent
                       --------  -------
prior rights of the Trustee under the 13% Indenture)

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

any and all such dividends or distributions received in the form of capital
stock, certificated securities, warrants, options or rights to acquire capital
stock or certificated securities forthwith shall be, and the certificates
representing such capital stock or certificated securities, if any, forthwith
shall be delivered to Secured Party to hold as pledged Collateral and shall, if
received by Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of Secured Party, be
segregated from the other Property of Grantor, and forthwith be delivered to
Secured Party as pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any
necessary endorsements).

          11.  Rights During Event of Default.  With respect to any Investment
               ------------------------------
Collateral, so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing:

                  11.1 Voting, Dividend, and Distribution Rights. At the option
                       -----------------------------------------
of Secured Party, all rights of Grantor to exercise the voting and other
consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to
Section 10.1 above, and to receive the dividends and distributions which it
would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 10.2
above, shall cease, and all such rights thereupon shall become vested in Secured
Party which thereupon shall have the sole right to exercise such voting and
other consensual rights and to receive and to hold as pledged Collateral such
dividends and distributions.

                   11.2 Dividends and Distributions Held in Trust. All dividends
                        -----------------------------------------
and other distributions which are received by Grantor contrary to the provisions
of this Agreement shall be received in trust for the benefit of Secured Party,
shall be segregated from other funds of Grantor, and (subject to any
inconsistent prior rights of the Trustee under the 13% Indenture) forthwith
shall be paid over to Secured Party as pledged Collateral in the same form as so
received (with any necessary endorsements).

                   11.3 Irrevocable Proxy. Other than any such proxies granted
                        -----------------
to the Trustee under the 13% Indenture, Grantor does hereby revoke all previous
proxies with regard to the Investment Collateral and appoints Secured Party
(subject to any inconsistent prior rights of the Trustee under the 13%
Indenture) as its proxyholder, with power when an Event of Default exists to
attend and vote at any and all meetings of the shareholders or other equity
holders of the Persons that issued the Investment Collateral and any
adjournments thereof, held on or after the date of the giving of this proxy and
prior to the termination of this proxy, and to execute any and all written
consents of shareholders or equity holders of such Persons executed on or after
the date of the giving of this proxy and prior to the termination of this proxy,
with the same effect as if Grantor had personally attended the meetings or had
personally voted its shares or other interests or had personally signed the
written consents; provided, however, that the proxyholder shall have rights
                  --------  -------
hereunder only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default. Grantor hereby authorizes Secured Party to substitute another Person as
the proxyholder and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, hereby authorizes the proxyholder to file this proxy and
                    -12-
<PAGE>

any substitution instrument with the secretary or other appropriate official of
the appropriate Person. This proxy is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable until such time as all Secured Obligations have been paid and
performed in full.

          12.  Attorney-in-Fact.  Grantor hereby irrevocably nominates and
               ----------------
appoints Secured Party as its attorney-in-fact for the following purposes:  (a)
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to
preserve, process, develop, maintain and protect the Collateral; (b) upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to do any and
every act which Grantor is obligated to do under this Agreement, at the expense
of Grantor and without any obligation to do so; (c) to prepare, sign, file
and/or record, for Grantor, in the name of Grantor, any financing statement,
application for registration, or like paper, and to take any other action deemed
by Secured Party necessary or desirable in order to perfect or maintain
perfected the security interests granted hereby; and (d) upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, to execute any and all papers and
instruments and do all other things necessary or desirable to preserve and
protect the Collateral and to protect Secured Party's security interests
therein; provided, however, that Secured Party shall be under no obligation
         --------  -------
whatsoever to take any of the foregoing actions, and, absent bad faith or actual
malice, Secured Party shall have no liability or responsibility for any act
taken or omission with respect thereto.

          13.  Costs and Expenses.  Grantor agrees to pay to Secured Party all
               ------------------
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
                    ---------
and disbursements) incurred by Secured Party in the enforcement or attempted
enforcement of this Agreement, whether or not an action is filed in connection
therewith, and in connection with any waiver or amendment of any term or
provision hereof.  All advances, charges, costs and expenses, including
                                                              ---------
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Secured Party
in exercising any right, privilege, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, the right to perform any Secured Obligation of
 ---------
Grantor under the Loan Documents), or in the enforcement or attempted
enforcement thereof, shall be secured hereby and shall become a part of the
Secured Obligations and shall be paid to Secured Party by Grantor, immediately
upon demand, together with interest from the date which is two Business Days
following such demand thereon at the rate(s) provided for under the Loan
Agreement.

          14.  Statute of Limitations and Other Laws.  Until the Secured
               -------------------------------------
Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, the power of sale and
all other rights, privileges, powers and remedies granted to Secured Party
hereunder shall continue to exist and may be exercised by Secured Party at any
time and from time to time irrespective of the fact that any of the Secured
Obligations may have become barred by any statute of limitations.  Grantor
expressly waives the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation, and any and
all Laws providing for exemption of property from execution or for valuation and
appraisal upon foreclosure, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

          15.  Other Agreements.  Nothing herein shall in any way modify or
               ----------------
limit the effect of terms or conditions set forth in any other security or other
agreement executed by Grantor or in connection with the Secured Obligations, but
each and every term and condition hereof shall be in addition thereto.  All
provisions contained in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document that apply
to Loan Documents generally are fully applicable to this Agreement and are
incorporated herein by this reference.

          16.  Continuing Effect.  This Agreement shall remain in full force and
               -----------------
effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against
Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should Grantor become insolvent or
make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee
be appointed for all or any significant part of Grantor's assets, and shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is,
pursuant to applicable Law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether as a
"voidable preference," "fraudulent conveyance," or otherwise, all as though such
payment or performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment or any
part thereof is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured
Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and
not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

          17.  Release of Grantor.  This Agreement and all Secured Obligations
               ------------------
of Grantor hereunder shall be released when all Secured Obligations have been
paid in full in cash or otherwise performed in full and when no portion of the
Commitment remains outstanding. Upon such release of Grantor's Secured
Obligations hereunder, Secured Party shall return and reassign any pledged
Collateral to Grantor, or to the Person or Persons legally entitled thereto, and
shall endorse, execute, deliver, record and file all instruments and documents,
and do all other acts and things, reasonably required for the return of the
Collateral to Grantor, or to the Person or Persons legally entitled thereto, and
to evidence or document the release of Secured Party's interests arising under
this Agreement, all as reasonably requested by, and at the sole expense of,
Grantor. The Secured Party shall take all action as reasonably required to
evidence or document the release of the Secured Party's interests to any
Collateral which the Grantor sells, transfers or otherwise disposes of as
permitted under the terms of the Loan Agreement, at the sole expense of Grantor.

          18.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more
               ------------
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken
together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

          19.  Additional Powers and Authorization.  The Administrative Agent
               -----------------------------------
has been appointed as the Administrative Agent hereunder pursuant to the Loan
Agreement and shall be entitled to the benefits of the Loan Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative
Agent may employ agents, trustees, or attorneys-in-fact and may vest any of them
with any Property (including, without limitation, any Collateral pledged
hereunder), title, right or power deemed necessary for the purposes of such
appointment.

          20.  GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN
               -------------
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WITHOUT
REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF.

          21.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  GRANTOR AND SECURED PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVE
               --------------------
THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE
OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN
AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
THEREBY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY
OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR
HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER WITH

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE.  GRANTOR AND SECURED
PARTY AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE
TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE
PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED
BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING
WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF
THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION
HEREOF OR THEREOF.  THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS,
RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.  ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR
A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE
SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Grantor has executed this Agreement by its duly
authorized officer as of the date first written above.
