to promptly (and in any event within two days of such request) execute and file
one or more financing or continuation statements, and/or amendments thereto,
relating to all or any part of the Collateral, Debtor authorizes Secured Party
to file financing or continuation statements, and/or amendments thereto without

Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement and
may be filed as a financing statement.

          Section 4.3 Corporate Changes. Debtor shall not change its name,
identity or corporate structure in any manner that might make any financing
statement filed in connection with this Agreement seriously misleading unless

thereof and shall have taken all action deemed necessary or appropriate by
Secured Party to protect its Liens and the perfection and priority thereof.
Debtor shall not change its principal place of business, chief executive office
or the place where it keeps its books and records unless it shall have given
Secured Party thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof and shall have taken
all action deemed necessary or appropriate by Secured Party to cause its
security interest in the Collateral to be perfected with the priority required
by this Agreement.

          Section 4.4 Notification. Debtor shall promptly notify Secured Party
of (a) any Lien, encumbrance or claim (other than Permitted Encumbrances) that
has attached to or been made or asserted against any of the Collateral, (b) any
material change in any of the Collateral, including,


                                      -7-

               continuing, Debtor shall be entitled to receive and retain any

               Collateral to the extent permitted by the Restated Lease
               Agreement; provided, however, that any and all

                         (A) Restricted Payments paid or payable in violation of

Party in respect of any Collateral shall be either (1) promptly released to
Debtor, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or (2) if any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, held by Secured Party and (if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing) applied as provided by the Restated Lease Agreement.
During the continuance of any Default, any dividends, interest or other
distributions (whether in cash, securities, Property or otherwise) received by
Debtor with respect to any Collateral shall be held by Debtor in trust for the
benefit of Secured Party and, during the continuance of any Event of Default,
upon the request of Secured Party, shall be delivered promptly to Secured Party
to hold as Collateral, as Secured Party may in its discretion determine. If such
Event of Default is


                                      -8-

waived or cured to the satisfaction of Secured Party, any such distributions
received by Secured Party (except those of the types described in clauses
(ii)(A) through (D) above which shall not be released to Debtor) shall be
returned promptly to Debtor (provided that no other Default or Event of Default
exists). If such Default remains uncured and becomes an Event of Default, any
such distributions will be applied by Secured Party as provided in the Restated
Lease Agreement.

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

               claims of Debtor with respect thereto held by Secured Party
               hereunder, and Secured Party or its nominee may thereafter, after
               delivery of notice to Debtor, exercise all voting and corporate
               rights at any meeting of any corporation, partnership or other
               business entity issuing any of the Collateral and any and all

               Secured Party of any right, privilege or option pertaining to any
               of the Collateral, and in connection therewith, to deposit and
               deliver any and all of the Collateral with any committee,
               depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency
               upon such terms and conditions as it may determine, all without
               liability except to account for property actually received by it,
               but Secured Party shall have no duty to exercise any of the
               aforesaid rights, privileges or options, and neither Secured
               Party nor any Lessor shall be responsible for any failure to do
               so or delay in so doing.

                    (ii) All rights of Debtor to exercise the voting and other
               consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to
               exercise pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(i) and to receive the
               dividends, interest and other distributions which it would
               otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section
               4.5(a)(ii) shall be suspended until such Event of Default shall
               no longer exist, and all such rights shall, until such Event of
               Default shall no longer exist, thereupon become vested in Secured
               Party which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such
               voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as
               Collateral such dividends, interest and other distributions.

                    (iii) All dividends, interest and other distributions which
               are received by Debtor contrary to the provisions of this Section
               4.5(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of Secured
               Party, shall be segregated from other funds of Debtor and shall
               be forthwith paid over to Secured Party as Collateral in the same
               form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

                    (iv) Debtor shall execute and deliver (or cause to be
               executed and delivered) to Secured Party all such proxies and
               other instruments as Secured Party may request for the purpose of
               enabling Secured Party to exercise the voting and other rights
               which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 4.5(b)
               and to receive the dividends, interest and other distributions
               which it is entitled to receive and retain pursuant to this
               Section 4.5(b). The foregoing shall not in any way limit Secured
               Party's power and authority granted pursuant to Section 5.1.

          Section 4.6 Transfers and Other Liens: Additional Investments.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

               (a) Except as may be expressly permitted by the terms of the
Restated Lease Agreement, Debtor shall not grant any option with respect to,
exchange, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral or create or permit
to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral except for the
Liens created hereby and Permitted Encumbrances.

               (b) Debtor agrees that it will (i) cause the Pledged Entities not
to issue any Capital Stock, notes or other securities or instruments in addition
to or in substitution for any of the Pledged Shares, except (A) with prior
written notice to Secured Party, to Debtor or (B) with the written consent of
Secured Party, to any Person other than Debtor, (ii) pledge hereunder,
immediately upon its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all
such Capital Stock, notes or other securities or instruments, and (iii) promptly
(and in any event within three Business Days) deliver to Secured Party an
Amendment, duly executed by Debtor, in substantially the form of Exhibit A (an
"Amendment"), in respect of such Capital Stock, notes or other securities or
instruments, together with all certificates, notes or other securities or
instruments representing or evidencing the same. Debtor hereby (1) authorizes
Secured Party to attach each Amendment to this Agreement, (2) agrees that all
such Capital Stock, notes or other securities or instruments listed on any
Amendment delivered to Secured Party shall for all purposes hereunder constitute
Pledged Shares, and (3) is deemed to have made, upon such delivery, the
representations and warranties contained in Article 3 with respect to such
Pledged Shares.

          Section 4.7 Possession: Reasonable Care. Regardless of whether a
Default or an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, Secured Party
shall have the right to hold in its possession all Pledged Shares or Pledged
Indebtedness pledged, assigned or transferred hereunder and from time to time
constituting a portion of the Collateral. Secured Party may, from time to time,
in its sole discretion, appoint one or more agents (which in no case shall be
Debtor or an Affiliate of Debtor) to hold physical custody, for the account of
Secured Party, of any or all of the Pledged Shares or Pledged Indebtedness.
Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody
and preservation of the Pledged Shares or Pledged Indebtedness in its possession
if the Pledged Shares or Pledged Indebtedness are 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 relative to any Pledged Shares or Pledged
Indebtedness, whether or not Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of
such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any
parties with respect to any Collateral. Following the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall be entitled to take
possession of all Collateral.

                                   ARTICLE 5

                             Rights of Secured Party
                             -----------------------

          Section 5.1 Power of Attorney. Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes
and appoints Secured Party and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of
substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable
power and authority in the name of Debtor or in its own name, to take, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any and all action
and to execute any and all documents and instruments which Secured Party at any


                                      -11-
<PAGE>


time and from time to time deems necessary or desirable to accomplish the
purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Debtor hereby gives Secured Party the power and right on behalf of
Debtor and in its own name to do any of the following after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to or the consent
of Debtor:

               (a) to demand, sue for, collect or receive, in the name of Debtor
or in its own name, any money or Property at any time payable or receivable on
account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral and, in connection
therewith, endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, documents
of title or any other instruments for the payment of money under the Collateral;

               (b) to pay or discharge taxes, Liens or other encumbrances levied
or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

               (c) (i) to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies,
claims and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or
arising out of any Collateral; (ii) to sign and endorse any assignments,
proxies, stock powers, verifications and notices relating to the Collateral;
(iii) to commence and prosecute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in
equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any
part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (iv)
to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Debtor with respect to
any Collateral; (v) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or
proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges
or releases as Secured Party may deem appropriate; (vi) to exchange any of the
Collateral for other Property upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization or other readjustment of the Pledged Entities and, in
connection therewith, deposit any of the Collateral with any committee,
depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms
as Secured Party may determine; (vii) to add or release any guarantor, endorser,
surety or other party to any of the Collateral; (viii) to renew, extend or
otherwise change the terms and conditions of any of the Collateral; (ix) to
make, settle, compromise or adjust any claims under or pertaining to any of the
Collateral; and (x) to sell, transfer, pledge, convey, make any agreement with
respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely
as though Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to
do, at Secured Party's option and Debtor's expense, at any time, or from time to
time, all acts and things which Secured Party deems necessary to protect,
preserve, maintain or realize upon the Collateral and Secured Party's security
interest therein.

         This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.
Secured Party shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any
of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to
Secured Party in this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do
so or any delay in doing so. Neither Secured Party nor any Person designated by
Secured Party shall be liable for any act or omission or for any error of
judgment or any mistake of fact or law except for gross negligence or willful
misconduct or as set forth in Section 4.7. This power of attorney is conferred
on Secured Party solely to protect, preserve, maintain and realize upon its
security interest in the Collateral. Secured Party shall not be responsible for
any decline in the


                                      -12-
<PAGE>


value of the Collateral and shall not be required to take any steps to preserve
rights against prior parties or to protect, preserve or maintain any Lien given
to secure the Collateral.

          Section 5.2 Performance by Secured Party. If Debtor shall fail to
perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, Secured Party may
perform or attempt to perform such covenant or agreement on behalf of Debtor. In
such event, Debtor shall, at the request of Secured Party, promptly pay any
amount expended by Secured Party in connection with such performance or
attempted performance to Secured Party, together with interest thereon at the
Default Rate from and including the date of such expenditure to but excluding
the date such expenditure is paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
expressly agreed that Secured Party shall not have any liability or
responsibility for the performance of any indebtedness, liability or obligation
of Debtor under this Agreement.

                                    ARTICLE 6

                                     Default
                                     -------

          Section 6.1 Rights and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Secured Party shall have the following rights and
remedies with respect to the Collateral (subject to Section 6.3):

               (a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to
Secured Party in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document or by applicable
law, Secured Party shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party
under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and
Secured Party may also, without notice except as specified below, sell the
Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale,
at any exchange, broker's board or at any of Secured Party's offices or
elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms
as Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable or otherwise as may be
permitted by law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured
Party may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any part
thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at Secured
Party's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and
upon such other terms as Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable or
otherwise as may be permitted by law. Secured Party shall have the right at any
public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, at any
private sale or sales, to bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the
form of cancellation of indebtedness) and become a purchaser of the Collateral
or any part thereof free of any right or equity of redemption on the part of
Debtor, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and
released by Debtor. Upon the request of Secured Party, Debtor shall assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at any place designated by
Secured Party that is reasonably convenient to Debtor and Secured Party. Debtor
agrees that Secured Party shall not be obligated to give more than five days
prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time
after which any private sale may take place and that such notice shall
constitute reasonable notice of such matters. Secured Party shall not be
obligated to make any sale of Collateral if it shall determine not to do so,
regardless of the fact that notice of sale of Collateral may have been given.
Secured Party may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private
sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the
time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further


                                      -13-
<PAGE>


notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. Debtor
shall be liable for all expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or the
like, and all attorneys' fees, legal expenses and other costs and expenses
incurred by Secured Party in connection with the collection of the Obligations
and the enforcement of Secured Party's rights under this Agreement. Debtor shall
remain liable for any deficiency if the Proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral applied to the Obligations are insufficient to pay
the Obligations in full. Secured Party may apply the Collateral against the
Obligations in such order and manner as Secured Party may elect in its sole
discretion. Debtor waives all rights of marshaling, valuation and appraisal in
respect of the Collateral. Any cash held by Secured Party as Collateral and all
cash proceeds received by Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection
from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the
discretion of Secured Party, be held by Secured Party as collateral for, and
then or at any time thereafter applied in whole or in part by Secured Party
against, the Obligations in such order as Secured Party shall select. Any
surplus of such cash or cash proceeds and interest accrued thereon, if any, held
by Secured Party and remaining after payment in full of all the Obligations
shall be paid over to Debtor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to
receive such surplus; provided that Secured Party shall have no obligation to
invest or otherwise pay interest on any amounts held by it in connection with or
pursuant to this Agreement.

               (b) Secured Party may cause any or all of the Collateral held by
it to be transferred into the name of Secured Party or the name or names of
Secured Party's nominee or nominees.

               (c) Secured Party may exercise any and all rights and remedies of
Debtor under or in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any
and all rights of Debtor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount
under, or performance of any provision of, any of the Collateral and any and all
voting rights and corporate powers in respect of the Collateral.

               (d) Secured Party may collect or receive all money or property at
any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the
Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so.

               (e) On any sale of the Collateral, Secured Party is hereby
authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction with which compliance is
necessary, in the view of Secured Party's counsel, in order to avoid any
violation of applicable law or in order to obtain any required approval of the
purchaser or purchasers by any applicable Governmental Authority.

          Section 6.2 Registration Rights, Private Sales, Etc.

               (a) If Secured Party shall determine to exercise its right to
sell all or any of the Collateral pursuant to Section 6.1, Debtor agrees that,
upon the request of Secured Party (which request may be made by Secured Party in
its sole discretion), Debtor will, at its own expense:

                    (i) execute and deliver, and cause the Pledged Entities and
               the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all
               such agreements,


                                      -14-
<PAGE>


               documents and instruments, and do or cause to be
               done all such other acts and things, as may be reasonably
               necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of Secured Party,
               advisable to register such Collateral under the provisions of the
               Securities Act (as hereinafter defined) and use its best efforts
               to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become
               effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses
               are required by law to be furnished and to make all amendments
               and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in
               the opinion of Secured Party, are necessary or advisable, all in
               conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the
               rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
               applicable thereto;

                    (ii) if reasonably necessary or, in the reasonable opinion
               of Secured Party, advisable, use its best efforts to qualify such
               Collateral under all applicable state securities or "Blue Sky"
               laws and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the
               sale of such Collateral, as requested by Secured Party;

                    (iii) if reasonably necessary or, in the reasonable opinion
               of Secured Party, advisable, cause each Pledged Entity to make
               available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an
               earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section
               11 (a) of the Securities Act;

                    (iv) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things
               as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to make such sale
               of the Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in
               compliance with applicable law; and

                    (v) bear all reasonable costs and expenses, including
               reasonable attorneys' fees, of carrying out its obligations under
               this Section 6.2.

               (b) Debtor recognizes that Secured Party may be unable to effect
a public sale of any or all of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions
contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time (the
"Securities Act") and applicable state securities laws but may be compelled to
resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers
who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Collateral for
their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
resale thereof. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that, any such private sale may
result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale
were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such
private sale shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner. Neither Secured Party nor the Lessors shall
be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Collateral for the period
of time necessary to permit any Pledged Entity to register such securities under
the Securities Act or under any applicable state securities laws, even if such
Pledged Entity would agree to do so.

               (c) Debtor further agrees to do or cause to be done, to the
extent that Debtor may do so under applicable law, all such other acts and
things as may be necessary to make such sales or resales of any portion or all
of the Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all
applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of
any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or
foreign, having jurisdiction


                                      -15-
<PAGE>

over any such sale or sales, all at Debtor's expense. Debtor further agrees that
a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.2 will cause
irreparable injury to Secured Party and the Lessors and that Secured Party and
the Lessors have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.2
shall be specifically enforceable against Debtor, and Debtor hereby waives and
agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, not to assert as a defense
against an action for specific performance of such covenants that (i) Debtor's
failure to perform such covenants will not cause irreparable injury to Secured
Party and the Lessors or (ii) Secured Party and the Lessors have an adequate
remedy at law in respect of such breach. Debtor further acknowledges the
impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages which would be suffered by
Secured Party and the Lessors by reason of a breach of any of the covenants
contained in this Section 6.2 and, consequently, agrees that, if Debtor shall
breach any of such covenants and Secured Party or any Lessor shall sue for
damages for such breach, Debtor shall pay to Secured Party or such Lessor, as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an aggregate amount equal to the value
of the Collateral on the date Secured Party or such Lessor shall demand
compliance with this Section 6.2.

               (d) DEBTOR HEREBY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, PROTECT AND SAVE HARMLESS
SECURED PARTY AND THE LESSORS AND ANY CONTROLLING PERSONS THEREOF WITHIN THE
MEANING OF THE SECURITIES ACT FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, SUITS,
CLAIMS, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING COUNSEL FEES AND DISBURSEMENTS) ARISING
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED,
ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES STATUTE, OR AT COMMON LAW, OR PURSUANT TO ANY
OTHER APPLICABLE LAW IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OF ANY SECURITIES OR THE
EXERCISE OF ANY OTHER RIGHT OR REMEDY OF SECURED PARTY, INSOFAR AS SUCH
LIABILITIES, SUITS, CLAIMS, COSTS AND EXPENSES ARISE OUT OF, OR ARE BASED UPON,
ANY UNTRUE STATEMENT OR ALLEGED UNTRUE STATEMENT OF A MATERIAL FACT MADE BY ANY
CREDIT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OR PROPOSED SALE OF ANY PART OF THE
COLLATERAL, OR ARISES OUT OF, OR IS BASED UPON, THE OMISSION OR ALLEGED OMISSION
BY ANY CREDIT PARTY TO STATE A MATERIAL FACT REQUIRED TO BE STATED IN CONNECTION
THEREWITH OR NECESSARY TO MAKE THE STATEMENTS MADE NOT MISLEADING; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT DEBTOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE IN ANY SUCH CASE TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY
SUCH LIABILITIES, SUITS, CLAIMS, COSTS AND EXPENSES ARISE OUT OF, OR ARE BASED
UPON, ANY UNTRUE STATEMENT OR ALLEGED UNTRUE STATEMENT OR OMISSION OR ALLEGED
OMISSION MADE IN RELIANCE UPON AND IN CONFORMITY WITH WRITTEN INFORMATION
FURNISHED TO DEBTOR BY SECURED PARTY OR ANY LESSOR SPECIFICALLY FOR INCLUSION IN
CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AGREEMENT IS IN ADDITION TO ANY
INDEBTEDNESS, LIABILITY OR OBLIGATION THAT DEBTOR MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO SECURED
PARTY, ANY LESSOR OR ANY CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF.

          Section 6.3 Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, instrument
or document executed by Debtor and delivered to Secured Party, Secured Party
will not take any action pursuant to this Agreement or any document referred to
herein which would constitute or result in any change of control (whether de
jure or de facto) of any Pledged Entity if such change of control would require,
under then existing law, the prior approval of the FCC or any other Governmental
Authority without first obtaining such prior approval of the FCC or other
Governmental Authority. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or at any
time thereafter during the continuance thereof, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Debtor agrees to take any action which Secured
Party may request in order to obtain from the FCC or such other Governmental
Authority such approval as may be necessary to enable Secured Party to exercise
and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to Secured Party by this
Agreement and the other documents referred to above, including specifically, at
the cost and expense of Debtor, the use of Debtor's best efforts to assist in
obtaining approval of the FCC or such other Governmental Authority for any
action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement for which such approval is
or shall be required by law, and specifically, without limitation, upon request,
to prepare, sign and file with the FCC or such other Governmental Authority the
assignor's or transferor's portion of any application or applications for
consent to the assignment of license or transfer of control necessary or
appropriate under the FCC's or such other Governmental Authority's rules and
regulations for approval of (a) any sale or other disposition of the Collateral
by or on behalf of Secured Party, or (b) any assumption by Secured Party of
voting rights in the Collateral effected in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

                                  -------------

          Section 7.1 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of
Secured Party to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing
with respect to, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The
rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.

          Section 7.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of Debtor and Secured Party and their respective
heirs, successors and permitted assigns, except that Debtor may not assign any
of its rights, indebtedness, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement
without the prior written consent of Secured Party.

          Section 7.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. THIS AGREEMENT EMBODIES THE
FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL
PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER
WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE
CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL
AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES
