attach immediately to any portion of such contract, right, licence or permit
that does not result in any of the consequences specified in (i) or (ii)
above.

acquiring such term.

     

    (e) Company
shall take all action that may be necessary, or that Secured Party may
reasonably request, so as at all times to maintain the validity, perfection,

Collateral or to enable Secured Party to protect, exercise or enforce its rights
hereunder and in the Collateral, including, but not limited to, (i) promptly
discharging all liens other than Permitted Encumbrances, (ii) taking

other custodial arrangements satisfactory to Secured Party, and (v) executing

maintenance or continuation of Secured Party’s security interest under the PPSA,
the UCC or other applicable law.  By its signature hereto, Company
hereby authorizes Secured Party to file against Company, one or more financing
continuation or amendment statements pursuant to the PPSA, the UCC or other
applicable law in form and substance satisfactory to Secured Party (which
statements may have a description of collateral which is broader than that set
forth herein).  All charges, expenses and fees Secured Party may incur
in doing any of the foregoing, and any local taxes relating thereto, shall be
paid to Secured Party promptly upon demand.

Blocked Account Bank pursuant to an arrangement with such Blocked Account Bank
as may be selected by Secured Party and be reasonably acceptable to Secured
Party or (y) Depository Accounts established at the Secured Party for the
deposit of such proceeds.  The Company, Secured Party and each Blocked
Account Bank shall enter into a deposit account control agreement or blocked
account agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured
Party, directing such Blocked Account Bank, upon and following the occurrence of
an Activation Event, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Activation
Notice, to transfer in immediately available funds, on a daily basis, all such
funds so deposited to Secured Party, either to any account maintained by Secured
Party at said Blocked Account Bank or by wire transfer to appropriate account(s)
of Secured Party. The Company will promptly deposit and direct its account
debtors that remit payments by electronic funds transfers to directly remit, all
payments constituting accounts and all payments constituting proceeds of
Collateral in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by
cash, cheque or other manner into such Blocked Accounts as appropriate. 
All funds deposited in such Blocked Accounts shall immediately become the
property of Secured Party for the rateable benefit of the Lenders and the
Company shall obtain the agreement by such Blocked Account Bank to waive any
offset rights against the funds so deposited.  Each agreement with respect
to a Blocked Account shall not be terminable by the Company without the express
written consent of Secured Party, until this Agreement shall have been
terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations paid in full in
immediately available funds. Neither Secured Party nor any Lender assumes any
responsibility for such blocked account arrangement, including any claim of
accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any
Blocked Account Bank thereunder.

     

    6. Collection and Maintenance
of Collateral and Records.  Company shall keep and maintain, at
its own cost and expense, satisfactory and complete records of the Collateral

and all credits granted with respect to the Collateral and all other dealings
with the Collateral.  Secured Party may at any time verify Company’s
Receivables utilizing an audit control company or any other agent of Secured
Party.  Secured Party or Secured Party’s designee may notify Customers
at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, at Secured Party’s reasonable discretion, of Secured Party’s security
interest in Receivables (contracts, instruments, or chattel paper as the case
may be), collect them directly from the Customers or parties to contracts,
instruments and chattel paper and charge the collection costs and expenses to
the applicable Company’s account, but, unless and until Secured Party does so or
gives Company other instructions, Company shall collect all Receivables for
Secured Party, receive all payments thereon for Secured Party’s benefit in trust
as Secured Party’s trustee and, in their original form with all necessary
endorsements, deposit them in the Blocked Account or, as directed by Secured
Party, immediately deliver them to Secured Party. Upon the occurrence and
continuation of an Activation Event, the Company shall collect as Secured
Party’s property and in trust for Secured Party all amounts received on its
Receivables and shall not commingle any collections received on its Receivables
with the Company’s funds or use the same except to pay the Obligations. Company
shall provide Secured Party, as requested by Secured Party, such schedules,
documents and/or information regarding the Collateral as Secured Party may
require.

     

    7. Inspections.  At
all reasonable times Agent and each Lender shall have full access to and the
right to audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from Company’s
books, records, audits, correspondence and all other papers relating to the
Collateral and the operation of Company’s business (in each case, other than
such privileged communications with legal counsel).  Agent, any Lender
and their agents may enter upon any premises of Company at any time during
business hours and at any other reasonable time, and from time to time, for the
purpose of inspecting the Collateral and any and all records pertaining thereto
and the operation of Company’s business and performing appraisals of Company’s
Inventory, at Company’s sole cost and expense, which appraisal shall be
performed one time during any year; provided, however, if a Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing such appraisal shall be performed as
often as Agent in its sole discretion may request.  The Company shall
be provided with reasonable notice of any of the foregoing, provided, that no
such notice shall be required at any time that an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing.

    (h) it will

proceedings and investigations by or before and/or the receipt of any notices
from, any governmental or nongovernmental body and all actions and proceedings

to the Collateral.  At its own cost and expense in amounts and with
carriers acceptable to Secured Party, it or the Debtor shall (i) keep all its
insurable properties and properties in which it has an interest insured against
the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended
coverage insurance and such other hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary
in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to Company’s including,
without limitation, public and product liability insurance, worker’s
compensation, insurance against larceny, embezzlement or other criminal
misappropriation of insured’s officers and employees and business interruption
insurance; and (ii) furnish Secured Party with (x) copies of all policies and
evidence of the maintenance of such policies by the renewal thereof at least ten

Party as loss payee and providing that as to Secured Party the insurance
coverage shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of Company
and the insurer will provide Secured Party with at least thirty (30) days notice
prior to cancellation.  Debtor shall instruct the insurance carriers
that in the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers shall make payment for
such loss to Secured Party and not to Debtor or Company and Secured Party
jointly.  If any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other
instrument payable to Debtor and/or Company and Secured Party jointly, Secured
Party may endorse Company’s name thereon and do such other things as Secured
Party may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash.  Upon the
occurrence and continuation of a Default or Event of Default and the exercise by
Agent of remedies under Article XI of the Loan Agreement, Secured Party is
hereby authorized to adjust and compromise claims under the insurance coverage
referred to herein.  All loss recoveries received by Secured Party
upon any such insurance may be applied to the Obligations, in such order as
Secured Party in its sole discretion shall determine.  Any surplus
shall be paid by Secured Party to Company or applied as may be otherwise
required by law.  Any deficiency thereon shall be paid by Company to
Secured Party, on demand.

     

    (j) any time
and from time to time, upon the written request of Secured Party and at the sole
expense of the Debtor and Company, Company shall promptly and duly execute and
deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further
actions as Secured Party may reasonably deem necessary to obtain the full
benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein
granted.

     

    (k) it will
not (i) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any indebtedness (exclusive of
trade debt) whether secured or unsecured other than Company’s indebtedness to
Secured Party and as set forth on Schedule 8(k) attached hereto and made a part
hereof; (ii) directly or indirectly, prepay any indebtedness (other than to
Secured Party), or repurchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire any
indebtedness of Company; (iv) make advances, loans or extensions of credit to
any Person; (v) become either directly or contingently liable upon the
obligations of any Person by assumption, endorsement or guarantee thereof or
otherwise; (vi) enter into any merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other
reorganization with or into any other Person or acquire all or a portion of the
assets or stock of any Person or permit any other Person to consolidate with or
merge with it; (vii) form any Subsidiary or enter into any partnership, joint
venture or similar arrangement, except that Company may form a new Subsidiary so
long as such new Subsidiary joins the Loan Agreement as a Borrower or becomes a
Guarantor of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (viii)
materially change the nature of the business in which it is presently engaged;
(ix) enter into any transaction with any Affiliate, except in ordinary course on
arms-length terms; (xi) bill Receivables under any name except its present name;
or (xii) substantially change the nature of its business in which it is
presently engaged.

     

    9. Condition Precedent to
Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall not be effective until the
Company has executed and delivered the agreements to which it is a party and
made or cause to have been made such deliveries and filings for which it is
responsible, in each case as set out in the closing agenda attached as Exhibit
“A” to this Agreement.

     

    10. Power of
Attorney.  Company hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party or
any other Person whom Secured Party may designate as Company’s attorney-in-fact,
with full power and authority in place and stead of Company and in the name of
Company or in its own name to:  (i) endorse Company’s name on any
checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, drafts or other forms of payment or
security that may come into Secured Party’s possession; (ii) sign Company’s name
on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Receivables, drafts against
customers, schedules and assignments of Receivables, notices of assignment,
financing statements and other public records, verifications of account and
notices to or from Customers; (iii) verify the validity, amount or any other
matter relating to any Receivable by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise
with Customers; (iv) execute customs declarations and such other documents as
may be required to clear Inventory through United States or Canadian Customs;
(v) do all things necessary to carry out this Agreement and all related
documents; (vi) continue any insurance existing pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement and pay all or any part of the premium therefor and the cost thereof;
and (vii) notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery
of Company’s mail to an address designated by Secured Party, and to receive,
open and dispose of all mail addressed to Company; provided, however, such power
shall not be exercised with respect to clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) through (vii)
unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  Company
hereby ratifies and approves all acts of the attorney.  The powers
conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interests in
the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such
powers.  Neither Secured Party nor the attorney will be liable for any
acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or
law.  This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so
long as any Receivable which is assigned to Secured Party or in which Secured
Party has a security interest remains unpaid and until the Obligations are paid
in full in cash.

     

    11. Expenses.  Debtor
shall pay all of Secured Party’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including
without limitation fees and disbursements of counsel and appraisers, in
connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and in
connection with the prosecution or defense of any action, contest, dispute, suit
or proceeding concerning any matter in any way arising out of, related to or
connected with this Agreement.  Debtor shall also pay all of Secured
Party’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including without
limitation fees and disbursements of counsel, in connection with (a) the
preparation, execution and delivery of any waiver, any amendment thereto or
consent proposed or executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, (b) Secured Party’s obtaining performance of Company’s
obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the enforcement
or defense of Secured Party’s security interests, assignments of rights and
liens hereunder as valid perfected security interests, (c) any attempt to
inspect, verify, protect, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any
Collateral and (d) any consultations in connection with any of the
foregoing.  All such costs and expenses together with all filing,
recording and search fees, taxes and interest payable by Debtor to Secured Party
shall be payable promptly following demand and shall be secured by the
Collateral.

     

    12. Assignment By Secured Party
and Lenders.  Secured Party and Lenders may assign any or all
of the Obligations together with any or all of the security therefor and any
transferee shall succeed to all of Secured Party’s and Lenders’ rights with
respect thereto.  Upon such transfer, Secured Party and Lenders shall
be released from all responsibility for the Collateral to the extent same is
assigned to any transferee.

     

    13. Waivers.  Company
waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice
of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action
taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any
description.  With respect to both the Obligations and the Collateral,
Company assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any
other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to
perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the addition or release of
any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of
partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any
thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Secured Party may
deem advisable.

     

    14. Events of
Default.  The occurrence of any one or more of the following
events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

     

    (a) the
occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement.

     

    (b) failure
by Company to make payment of any of its Obligations when required hereunder or
under the Guarantee.

     

    (c) failure
to perform under and/or committing any breach of this Agreement or the Guarantee
or any other agreement between Company, Secured Party and/or any Lender, except
that the failure to perform any term, provision, condition or covenant similar
to those terms, provisions, conditions or covenants described in Section
10.5(ii) of the Loan Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder
only if such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of
notice by the Secured Party of such failure.

     

    (d) a default
by Company in the payment, when due, of any principal of or interest on any
indebtedness for money borrowed other than such a default that could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (e) occurrence
of a default under any agreement to which Company is a party with third parties
which has a Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (f) any
representation, warranty or statement made by Company hereunder, in the
Guarantee, or in any certificate, statement or document delivered pursuant to
the terms hereof, or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement should at any time be false or misleading in any material
respect.

     

    (g) an
attachment or levy is made upon Company’s assets having an aggregate value in
excess of $25,000, or a judgment is rendered against Company or any of Company’s
property involving a liability of more than $25,000, which shall not have been
vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within forty (40) days from
the entry thereof; provided, however, if any such judgment is rendered against
the Company and PI jointly, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred
under this subclause (g) unless such judgment is rendered against the Company
and PI for an aggregate amount in excess of $250,000.

     

    (h) any lien
created hereunder for any reason ceases to be or is not a valid and perfected
lien having a first priority interest (other than any Permitted Encumbrances
which by operation of law would take priority over Agent’s liens in the subject
Collateral, it being understood that the lien described in clause (b) of the
definition of Permitted Encumbrances may not take priority over the Secured
Party’s liens and still constitute a Permitted Encumbrance).

     

    (i) if
Company shall (i) apply for, consent to or suffer to exist the appointment of,
or the taking of possession by, a receiver, interim receiver, manager,
custodian, trustee or liquidator of itself or of all or a substantial part of
its property, (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iii)
commence a voluntary case under the United States Bankruptcy Code, the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement
Act, the Bankruptcy and
Insolvency Act, the Winding-up and Restructuring
Act or any other U.S. or Canadian federal, Canadian provincial or U.S.
state bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or insolvency law relating to or
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally (as now or hereafter in
effect), (iv) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, (v) file a petition
seeking to take advantage of any other law providing for the relief of debtors,
(vi) acquiesce to, or fail to have dismissed, within thirty (30) days, any
petition filed against it in any involuntary case under such bankruptcy laws, or
(vii) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the
foregoing.

     

    (j) Company
shall admit in writing its inability, or be generally unable to pay its debts as
they become due or cease operations of its present business.

     

    (k) [RESERVED].

     

    (l) if
Company attempts to terminate, challenges the validity of, or challenges its
liability under, the Guarantee.

     

    15. Remedies.  Upon
the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, Secured
Party shall have the right to demand repayment in full of all Obligations,
whether or not otherwise due (in such case Secured Party may deposit any and all
such amounts realized in a cash collateral deposit account to be maintained as
security for the Obligations).  Until all Obligations have been fully
satisfied in cash, Secured Party shall retain its security interest in all
Collateral. Secured Party shall have, in addition to all other rights provided
herein, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the PPSA and under
other applicable law, and all other legal and equitable rights to which Secured
Party may be entitled, including without limitation, the right to take immediate
possession of the Collateral and to require Company to assemble the Collateral,
at Debtor’s expense, and to make it available to Secured Party at a place
designated by Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties and
to enter any of the premises of Company or wherever the Collateral shall be
located, with or without force or process of law, and to keep and store the same
on said premises until sold (and if said premises be the property of Company,
Company agrees not to charge Secured Party for storage
thereof).  Further, Secured Party may, at any time or times after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, sell and deliver
all Collateral held by or for Secured Party in one or more parcels at public or
private sale for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such
terms as Secured Party, in Secured Party’s sole discretion, deems advisable or
Secured Party may otherwise recover upon the Collateral in any commercially
reasonable manner as Secured Party, in its sole discretion, deems
advisable.  Except as to that part of the Collateral which is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in nature or is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market, the requirement of reasonable notice
shall be met if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to Debtor at Debtor’s
address as shown in Secured Party’s records, at least ten (10) days before the
time of the event of which notice is being given.  Secured Party may
be the purchaser at any sale, if it is public.  Until Secured Party is
able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, Secured Party
shall have the right to use or operate Collateral, or any part thereof, to the
extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its
value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Secured
Party.  Secured Party shall have no obligation to Company to maintain
or preserve the rights of Company as against third parties with respect to
Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Secured Party. Secured Party
may, if it so elects, by appointment in writing appoint a receiver, interim
receiver, receiver and manager or agent (each referred to as the “Receiver”) over all or any
part of the Collateral, and may remove or replace such Receiver from time to
time or may institute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a Receiver of the Collateral; and the term “Secured Party” when
used in the remedial sections of this Agreement will include any Receiver so
appointed and the agents, officers and employees of such Receiver; and the
Secured Party will not be in any way responsible for any misconduct or
negligence of any such Receiver. In connection with the exercise of the
foregoing remedies, Secured Party is granted permission to use all of Company’s
(a) trademarks, tradenames, tradestyles, patents, patent applications, licenses,
franchises and other proprietary rights which are used in connection with
Inventory for the purpose of disposing of such Inventory and (b) Equipment for
the purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished goods.  The
proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied as follows:
first, to the costs, expenses and legal fees and expenses incurred by Secured
Party for collection and for acquisition, completion, protection, removal,
storage, sale and deliver of the Collateral; second, to the payment of the
Obligations in such order as Secured Party elects.  If any deficiency
shall arise, Company shall remain liable to Secured Party therefor.

     

    16. No Obligation to Exhaust
Remedies; Waiver. The Secured Party shall not be required to make any
demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the
Company, or any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with
respect to the payment of the Obligations.  The Secured Party may
grant extensions of time and other indulgences, take and give up security,
accept compositions, compound, compromise, settle, grant releases and discharges
and otherwise deal with the Company or any other Person and others and with
Collateral and other security as the Secured Party may see fit without prejudice
to the liability of the Company or the Secured Party’s right to hold and realize
the lien granted hereunder.  Furthermore, without limiting any other
provision hereof, after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Secured Party may demand, collect and sue on Collateral in either the Company or
the Secured Party’s name, at the Secured Party’s option, and may endorse the
Company’s name on any and all cheques, commercial paper and any other
instruments pertaining to or constituting Collateral.  Nothing herein
contained shall in any way obligate the Secured Party to grant, continue, renew,
extend time for payment of or accept anything which constitutes or would
constitute Obligations.  Failure by Secured Party to exercise any
right, remedy or option under this Agreement or any supplement hereto or any
other agreement between Company and Secured Party or delay by Secured Party in
exercising the same, will not operate as a waiver; no waiver by Secured Party
will be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent
specifically stated.

     

    17.  Cumulative
Remedies. Secured Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement will
be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which Secured Party
may have.

     

    18. Delegation of Duties.
Secured Party may execute any of its rights and remedies under this Agreement by
or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to
advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters
pertaining to such rights and remedies.  Secured Party shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by Secured Party with reasonable care.  Secured Party may
also from time to time, when the Secured Party deems it to be necessary or
desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents,
collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all
or any part of the Collateral; provided that no such Subagent shall be
authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except
to the extent expressly authorized in writing by Secured
Party.  Should any instrument in writing from Secured Party be
required by any Subagent so appointed by Secured Party to more fully or
certainly vest in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, powers, privileges
and duties, the Company shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such
instruments promptly upon request by Secured Party.  If any Subagent,
or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be
removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the
extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by Secured
Party until the appointment of a new Subagent.  Secured Party shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent,
attorney-in-fact or Subagent that it selects in accordance with the foregoing
provisions of this Section in the absence of Secured Party’s gross negligence or
misconduct.

     

    19. Currency Indemnity.
If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with
respect to this Agreement or the Guarantee, it becomes necessary to convert into
the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount
due under this Agreement or the Guarantee in any currency other than the
Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then
conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate (as hereinafter defined) at which
Secured Party is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with
the Judgment Currency prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which
judgment is given.  In the event that there is a change in the rate of
Exchange Rate prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the
judgment is given and the date of receipt by Secured Party of the amount due, a
Debtor will, on the date of receipt by Secured Party, pay such additional
amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any,
as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by Secured Party on such
date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by Secured Party is the amount then
due under this Agreement or the Guarantee in the Currency Due.  If the
amount of the Currency Due which Secured Party is able to purchase is less than
the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Company shall indemnify
and save Secured Party harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a
result of such deficiency.  The indemnity contained herein shall
constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations
contained in this Agreement or the Guarantee, shall give rise to a separate and
independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted
by Secured Party from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an
amount due under this Agreement or the Guarantee or under any judgment or
order.  As used herein, “Exchange Rate” shall mean the
prevailing spot rate of exchange of such bank as Secured Party may reasonably
select for the purpose of conversion of one currency to another, at or around
11:00 a.m. Toronto time, on the date on which any such conversion of currency is
to be made under this Agreement.

     

    20. Notices.  Any
notice or request hereunder may be given to Company or to Secured Party at their
respective addresses set forth below or at such other address as may hereafter
be specified in a notice designated as a notice of change of address under this
Section 18.  Any notice, request, demand, direction or other
