(ii) promptly upon the receipt thereof by the Pledgor, all other
certificates and instruments constituting Pledged Collateral owned by the

for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment in blank, substantially in the form provided in Exhibit A attached

    5.           Representations and
Warranties.  The Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to the
Secured Party as follows:

     

    (a)           Enforceability; Creation of
Security Interest.  This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by Pledgor and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Pledgor, enforceable against the Pledgor in accordance with its terms,
subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and similar laws
of general applicability affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is sought in
proceedings in equity or at law.  The security interest created hereby
constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in the Pledged Collateral
owned by the Pledgor securing the payment and performance of the Secured
Obligations, and (ii) a first priority and perfected security interest in the
Pledged Collateral.  The security interest created hereby shall be
prior to any lien on the Pledged Collateral, other than liens arising by
operation of law and that would be prior in right.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        -3-

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

    

    (b)           Ownership and
Liens.  The Pledgor is the record and beneficial owner of Blue
Fin Shares, and the Blue Fin Shares constitute all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of Blue Fin Capital, Inc.  The  Pledgor owns
the Pledged Collateral, free and clear of all liens, except for the security
interest created by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (as defined in
the Investment Agreement).  The Pledgor has not executed any other
security agreement affecting the Pledged Collateral, and no financing statement
or other similar instrument in respect of the Pledged Collateral is in effect or
on file in any recording office in any jurisdiction, except pursuant to the
Transaction Documents.

     

    6.           Covenants.  The
Pledgor shall comply with the covenants contained in this Section 6 at all times
during the period of time this Agreement remains in effect unless the Secured
Party shall otherwise consent in writing:

     

    (a)           Ownership and
Liens.  The Pledgor will maintain good and valid title to the
Pledged Collateral, free and clear of all liens, except for the security
interest created by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.

     

    (b)           Adverse
Claim.  The Pledgor will promptly notify the Secured Party of
any claim, action or proceeding affecting ownership of the Pledged Collateral,
or any part thereof, or the security interest created hereunder.  The
Pledgor will promptly deliver to the Secured Party a copy of all written notices
received by the Pledgor with respect to the Pledged Collateral.  The
Pledgor will defend the Pledged Collateral pledged hereby against, and take such
other action as is necessary to remove, any lien or charge on, defect in title
to, or other encumbrance on, any of the Pledged Collateral.

     

    (c)           Further
Assurances.  The Pledgor will from time to time at its expense
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all
further action necessary or appropriate or that the Secured Party may reasonably
request in order (i) to perfect and protect the security interest created
or purported to be created hereby and the priority of such security interest,
(ii) to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and
remedies hereunder in respect of the Pledged Collateral, and (iii) to
otherwise effect the purposes of this Agreement.

     

    7.          Transfer or
Encumbrance.  The Pledgor will not (i) sell, assign (by
operation of law or otherwise), transfer or otherwise dispose of the Pledgor’s
rights in any of the Pledged Collateral, or (ii) grant a lien or security
interest in or execute, file or record any financing statement or other security
instrument with respect to the Pledged Collateral to any party other than the
Secured Party.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        -4-

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

    

    8.          Remedies Upon Foreclosure
Event.  If a Foreclosure Event occurs, the Secured Party may
exercise any and all the rights, powers and remedies of any owner of the Pledged
Collateral (including the right to vote the securities and receive dividends and
distributions with respect to such securities) and shall have and may exercise
without demand any and all the rights and remedies granted to a secured party
upon default under the UCC or otherwise available to the Secured Party under
applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, following a Foreclosure Event,
the Secured Party is authorized to sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver at
its discretion, from time to time, all or any part of the Pledged Collateral
together with all rights and entitlements appurtenant thereto at any private
sale or public auction, on not less than ten (10) days written notice to the
Pledgor, at such price or prices and upon such terms as the Secured Party may
deem commercially reasonable.  The Pledgor shall have no right to
redeem the Pledged Collateral after any such sale or assignment.  At
any such sale or auction, the Pledgor may bid for, and become the purchaser of,
the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral offered for sale.  In
case of any such sale, after deducting the reasonable costs, attorneys’ fees and
other expenses of sale and delivery, the remaining proceeds of such sale shall
be applied to the Secured Obligations (first, to the payment in full of all
amounts owing under the Investment Agreement, with the balance to the remaining
Secured Obligations); provided that after
payment in full of the indebtedness under the Note and all other Secured
Obligations, the balance of the proceeds of sale then remaining shall be paid to
the Pledgor, and the Pledgor shall be entitled to any remaining portion of the
Pledged Collateral.  The Pledgor shall be liable for any deficiency if
the remaining proceeds are insufficient to pay the indebtedness under the Note
in full and the other Secured Obligations, including the reasonable fees of any
attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such
deficiency.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a
Foreclosure Event and upon request of the Secured Party, the Pledgor will not
exercise any voting rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

     

    9.          Waiver of
Presentment.  The Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, presentment, notice (other than such notices as are
expressly provided for) and demand with respect to breaches of the payment of
any of the Secured Obligations.

     

    10.          Power of Attorney;
Performance.  The Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the
Secured Party as its attorney-in-fact during the term of this Agreement (such
power of attorney being coupled with an interest and with full right of
substitution) and proxy to exercise any voting rights with respect to the
Pledged Collateral, and to take such other actions and exercise such other
remedies provided herein, but only upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of a Foreclosure Event.  If the Pledgor fails to perform
any obligation hereunder required to be performed on the part of the Pledgor,
the Secured Party may itself perform (or cause the performance of) such
obligation, and the reasonable expenses of the Secured Party incurred in
connection therewith shall be paid by the Pledgor.

     

    11.          No Assumption of Duties;
Reasonable Care.  The rights and powers granted to the Secured
Party hereunder are being granted in order to preserve and protect the Secured
Party’s security interest in and to the Pledged Collateral granted hereby and
will not be interpreted to, and will not, impose any duties on the Secured Party
in connection therewith.  The Secured Party will be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged
Collateral in its possession if the Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment
substantially similar to that which the Secured Party accords its own
property.

     

    12.          Miscellaneous.

     

    (a)           Amendment.  No
modification, consent or amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be
valid or effective unless the same is in writing and signed by the party against
whom it is sought to be enforced.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        -5-

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

    

    (b)           Waiver by the Secured
Party.  The Secured Party may waive any Foreclosure Event
without waiving any other subsequent Foreclosure Event.  Neither the
failure by the Secured Party to exercise, nor the delay by the Secured Party in
exercising, any right or remedy upon any Foreclosure Event shall be construed as
a waiver of such Foreclosure Event or as a waiver of the right to exercise any
such right or remedy at a later date.  No single or partial exercise
by the Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder shall exhaust the same or
shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every such right or
remedy hereunder may be exercised at any time.  No waiver of any
provision hereof or consent to any departure by the Pledgor therefrom shall be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Secured Party
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instances, for the purpose for which given and to the extent therein
specified.  No notice to or demand on the Pledgor in any case shall of
itself entitle the Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar
or other circumstances.

     

    (c)           Costs and
Expenses.  The Pledgor will, within five (5) days after
demand, pay to the Secured Party the amount of any and all reasonable costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses and all
costs and expenses of collection and sale of collateral), which the Secured
Party may incur after a Foreclosure Event in connection with (i) the
exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or remedies of the Secured Party
under the Investment Agreement, this Agreement or applicable law, or
(ii) the failure by the Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions
hereof.

     

    (d)           GOVERNING
LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW
PRINCIPLES THEREOF, EXCEPT FOR SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-4102 OF THE NEW YORK
GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

     

    (e)           Jurisdiction,
Etc.

     

    (i)           Each
of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself
and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court
or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York County, and
any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any
judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard
and determined in any such New York State court or, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, in such Federal court.  Each of the parties hereto
agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding, to the extent
permitted by law, shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions
by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law.  Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party
may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
in the courts of any jurisdiction.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        -6-

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

    

    (ii)           Each
of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement in any New York State or Federal
court.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

     

    (f)           WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PLEDGOR AND THE SECURED PARTY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM
(WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION,
PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

     

    (g)          Severability.  If
any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to
be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, such
provision shall be fully severable, shall not impair or invalidate the remainder
of this Agreement and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision held
to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable
