                  (a) such Intellectual Property Collateral is subsisting and
         has not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part;

                  (b) such Intellectual Property Collateral is valid and
         enforceable;

                  (c) the Grantor has made all necessary filings and
         recordations to protect its interest in such Intellectual Property
         Collateral that are registered, issued, or for which applications are
         pending, including recordations of all of its interests in the Patent
         Collateral and Trademark Collateral in the United States Patent and
         Trademark Office and (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement) in
         corresponding offices throughout the world, where necessary, and its
         claims to the Copyright Collateral in the United States Copyright
         Office and (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement) in
         corresponding offices throughout the world, where necessary;

         unencumbered right, title and interest in and to the owned Intellectual
         Property Collateral and no claim has been made that the use of such

         rights of any third party; and

                  (e) the Grantor has performed and will continue to perform in
         all material respects all acts and has paid and will continue to pay

                  (b) a partnership or limited liability company, to (i) issue
         Capital Stock that is to be dealt in or traded on securities exchanges
         or in securities markets, (ii) expressly provide in its Organic
         Documents that its Capital Stock is a security governed by Article 8 of
         the UCC, or (iii) place such Subsidiary's Capital Stock in a securities
         account,

unless, in each case, all actions are taken by the Grantor to grant to the
Administrative Agent a perfected first priority security interest in such
Collateral.

         SECTION 4.1.2. Investment Property (other than Certificated
Securities). With respect to any investment property (other than certificated
securities) owned by the Grantor, the Grantor will use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause a Control Agreement relating to such investment property to be
executed and delivered by the Grantor and the applicable financial intermediary
in favor of the Administrative Agent; provided that if, after using commercially
reasonable efforts, the Grantor shall fail to cause such Control Agreement to be
executed and delivered by such financial intermediary, the Grantor shall, upon
the request of the Administrative Agent, transfer such investment property to a
financial intermediary mutually satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that
has agreed to execute and deliver such Control Agreement.

         SECTION 4.1.3. Stock Powers, etc. The Grantor agrees that all
certificated securities delivered by the Grantor pursuant to this Security

terms of the Credit Agreement and this Security Agreement) deliver to the
Administrative Agent and at all times keep pledged to the Administrative Agent
pursuant hereto, on a first-priority, perfected basis all investment property
constituting Collateral, all Dividends and Distributions with respect thereto,
all payment intangibles to the extent they are evidenced by a document,
instrument, promissory note or chattel paper, and all interest and principal
with respect to such payment intangibles, and all proceeds and rights from time
to time received by or distributable to the Grantor in respect of any of the
foregoing Collateral. The Grantor agrees that it will, promptly following
receipt thereof, deliver to the Administrative Agent possession of all originals
of negotiable documents, instruments, promissory notes and chattel paper that
have a principal amount, or value, in excess of $50,000 that it acquires
following the Closing Date; provided that no more than $500,000 in principal
amount, or value, of the foregoing shall be excluded from the delivery request.

         SECTION 4.1.5. Voting Rights; Dividends, etc. The Grantor agrees:

                  (a) promptly upon receipt of notice of the occurrence and
         continuance of an Event of Default from the Administrative Agent and
         upon request therefor by the Administrative Agent (although no such
         request shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.1.9 of
         the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing), so long as such
         Event of Default shall continue, to deliver (properly endorsed where
         required hereby or requested by the Administrative Agent) to the
         Administrative Agent all Dividends and Distributions with respect to
         investment property, all interest, principal, other cash payments on
         payment intangibles, and all proceeds of the Collateral, in each case



                                      -11-
<PAGE>
         thereafter received by the Grantor, all of which shall be held by the
         Administrative Agent as additional Collateral; and

                  (b) after any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing and the Administrative Agent has notified the Grantor of the
         Administrative Agent's intention to exercise its voting power under
         this clause,

                           (i) that the Administrative Agent may exercise (to
                  the exclusion of the Grantor) the voting power and all other
                  incidental rights of ownership with respect to any investment
                  property constituting Collateral and the Grantor hereby grants
                  the Administrative Agent an irrevocable proxy, exercisable
                  under such circumstances, to vote such investment property;
                  and

                           (ii) to promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent
                  such additional proxies and other documents as may be
                  necessary to allow the Administrative Agent to exercise such
                  voting power.

All Dividends, Distributions, interest, principal, cash payments, payment
intangibles and proceeds which may at any time and from time to time be held by
the Grantor but which the Grantor is then obligated to deliver to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Security Agreement, shall,
until delivery to the Administrative Agent, be held by the Grantor separate and
apart from its other property in trust for the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent agrees that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given the notice
referred to in clause (b), the Grantor will have the exclusive voting power with
respect to any investment property constituting Collateral and the
Administrative Agent will, upon the written request of the Grantor, promptly
deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as shall be reasonably
requested by the Grantor which are necessary to allow the Grantor to exercise
that voting power; provided that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver, or
ratification given, or action taken by the Grantor that would impair any such
Collateral or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of any Loan
Document.

         SECTION 4.2. Change of Name, etc. The Grantor will not change its name
or place of incorporation or organization or federal taxpayer identification
number except upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent. If
the Grantor is organized outside of the United States, it will not change its
"location" as determined in accordance with Section 9-301 and 9-307 of the UCC
and as set forth in Item A of Schedule II hereto except upon 30 days' prior
written notice to the Administrative Agent.

         SECTION 4.3. As to Receivables.

                  (a) The Grantor shall have the right to collect all
         Receivables so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing.

                  (b) Upon (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
         Default and (ii) the delivery of written notice by the Administrative
         Agent to the Grantor, all proceeds of Receivables constituting
         Collateral received by the Grantor shall be delivered in kind to the
         Administrative Agent for deposit to a deposit account (the "Collateral
         Account") of


                                      -12-
<PAGE>
         the Grantor maintained with the Administrative Agent, and the Grantor
         shall not commingle any such proceeds, and shall hold separate and
         apart from all other property, all such proceeds in express trust for
         the benefit of the Administrative Agent until delivery thereof is made
         to the Administrative Agent; provided that any amounts remaining in the
         Collateral Account which were received and deposited pursuant to this
         clause (b) are to be returned to the Grantor if such Event of Default
         is cured or otherwise ceases and there is no longer any Event of
         Default that is continuing.

                  (c) Following the delivery of notice pursuant to clause
         (b)(ii) of this Section and so long as an Event of Default is
         continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to apply any
         amount in the Collateral Account to the payment of any Obligations
         which are due and payable.

                  (d) With respect to the Collateral Account, it is hereby
         confirmed and agreed that (i) deposits in each Collateral Account are
         subject to a security interest as contemplated hereby, (ii) each such
         Collateral Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the
         Administrative Agent and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have the
         sole right of withdrawal over such Collateral Account.

         SECTION 4.4. As to Collateral.

                  (a) Subject to clause (b) of this Section, the Grantor (i) may
         in the ordinary course of its business, at its own expense, sell, lease
         or furnish under the contracts of service any of the inventory normally
         held by the Grantor for such purpose, and use and consume, in the
         ordinary course of its business, any raw materials, work in process or
         materials normally held by the Grantor for such purpose, (ii) will, at
         its own expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due, all amounts due
         with respect to any of the Collateral, including the taking of such
         action with respect to such collection as the Administrative Agent may
         reasonably request following the occurrence and during the continuance
         of an Event of Default or, in the absence of such request, as the
         Grantor may deem advisable, and (iii) may grant, in the ordinary course
         of business, to any party obligated on any of the Collateral, any
         rebate, refund or allowance to which such party may be lawfully
         entitled, and may accept, in connection therewith, the return of goods,
         the sale or lease of which shall have given rise to such Collateral.

                  (b) At any time following the occurrence and during the
         continuance of a an Event of Default, whether before or after the
         maturity of any of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent may upon
         written notice to the Grantor, (i) revoke any or all of the rights of
         the Grantor set forth in clause (a), (ii) notify any parties obligated
         on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Administrative Agent of
         any amounts due or to become due thereunder and (iii) enforce
         collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise and surrender,
         release, or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend
         or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original
         period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby.

                  (c) Upon request of the Administrative Agent following the
         occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
         Grantor will, at its own expense, notify


                                      -13-
<PAGE>
         any parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the
         Administrative Agent of any amounts due or to become due thereunder.

                  (d) At any time following the occurrence and during the
         continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may
         endorse, in the name of the Grantor, any item, howsoever received by
         the Administrative Agent, representing any payment on or other proceeds
         of any of the Collateral.

         SECTION 4.5. As to Intellectual Property Collateral. The Grantor
covenants and agrees to comply with the following provisions as such provisions
relate to any Intellectual Property Collateral material to the operations or
business of the Grantor:

                  (a) the Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to

                  (b) the Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent
         if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or
         registration relating to any material item of the Intellectual Property

         or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political
         subdivision thereof, unless it informs the Administrative Agent within
         60 days after such filing, and upon request of the Administrative Agent
         (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement), executes and delivers
         all agreements, instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent
         may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent's security
         interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral;

                  (d) the Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts,

         interest in any such registered, issued or pending Intellectual
         Property, and shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any
         other document required to acknowledge or register or perfect the
         Administrative Agent's interest in any part of such item of
         Intellectual Property Collateral unless the Grantor shall determine in
         good faith that any Intellectual Property Collateral is of immaterial
         economic value to the Grantor.

         SECTION 4.6. Further Assurances, etc. The Grantor agrees that, from
time to time at its own expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all

         respect of any of the foregoing Collateral;

                  (d) except as otherwise provided by the Credit Agreement or
         this Security Agreement, not take or omit to take any action the taking
         or the omission of which would result in any impairment or alteration
         of any obligation of the maker of any payment intangible or other
         instrument constituting Collateral;

         connection with the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may
         reasonably request, all in reasonable detail;

                  (f) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
         Event of Default, do all things reasonably requested by the
         Administrative Agent in order to enable the Administrative Agent to
         have control (as such term is defined in Article 8 and Article 9 of any
         applicable Uniform Commercial Code relevant to the creation, perfection
         or priority of Collateral consisting of deposit accounts, investment
         property, electronic chattel paper and letter of credit rights) over
         any Collateral; and

                  (g) notify the Administrative Agent if the Grantor reasonably
         believes it is entitled to recover a commercial tort claim the value of
         which is in excess of $2,500,000 and the Grantor take all such action
         reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant to the
         Administrative Agent and perfect a security interest in such commercial
         tort claim.

With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder,
the Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file one or more
financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or
any part of the Collateral. The Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or
other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing


                                      -16-

statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a
financing statement where permitted by law.

                                   ARTICLE V
                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

         SECTION 5.1. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The
Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Grantor and
in the name of the Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the Administrative
Agent's discretion, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the
Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes
of this Security Agreement, including:

                  (a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise,
         receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become
         due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

                  (b) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other
         instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a)
         above;

                  (c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any
         proceedings which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or
         desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to
         enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to any of
         the Collateral; and

                  (d) to perform the affirmative obligations of the Grantor
         hereunder.

The Grantor hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney
granted pursuant to this Section is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

         SECTION 5.2. Administrative Agent May Perform. If the Grantor fails to
perform any agreement contained herein within five Business Days after written
notice from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may itself
perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the
Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the
Grantor pursuant to Section 11.3 of the Credit Agreement.

         SECTION 5.3. Administrative Agent Has No Duty. The powers conferred on
the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest (on behalf
of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to
exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care of any Collateral in its
possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility
for

                  (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls,
         conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative
         to any investment property, whether or not the Administrative Agent has
         or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or



                                      -17-
<PAGE>
                  (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against
         prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

         SECTION 5.4. Reasonable Care. The Administrative Agent shall exercise
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of all of the Collateral in its
possession.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                                    REMEDIES

         SECTION 6.1. Certain Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing:

                  (a) The Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the
         Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for
         herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a
         secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies
         to the affected Collateral) and also may

                           (i) require the Grantor to, and the Grantor hereby
                  agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of the
                  Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the
                  Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it
                  available to the Administrative Agent at a place to be
                  designated by the Administrative Agent which is reasonably
                  convenient to both parties, and

                           (ii) 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 of the Administrative Agent's
                  offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future
                  delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative
                  Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Grantor agrees
                  that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law,
                  at least ten days prior notice to the Grantor of the time and
                  place of any public sale or the time after which any private
                  sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.
                  The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any
                  sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been
                  given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or
                  private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and
                  place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further
                  notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
                  adjourned.

                  (b) All cash proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in
         respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all
         or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the
         Administrative Agent, be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral
         for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied by the
         Administrative Agent against, all or any part of the Obligations as
         follows:

                           (i) first, to the payment of all Obligations owing to
                  the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as the
                  Administrative Agent, including fees and expenses of counsel
                  to the Administrative Agent;



                                      -18-
<PAGE>
                           (ii) second, to the equal and ratable payment of
                  Obligations, in accordance with each Secured Party's
                  Obligations owing to it under or pursuant to the Credit
                  Agreement or any other Loan Document, applied

                                    (A) first to fees and expense reimbursements
                           then due to such Secured Party,

                                    (B) second to interest due to such Secured
                           Party,

                                    (C) third to pay or prepay principal of the
                           Loans owing to such Secured Party or to reduce the
                           credit exposure of such Secured Party under such Rate
                           Protection Agreement, as the case may be, and

                                    (D) fourth to pay the remaining outstanding
                           Obligations and Cash Collateralize all Letter of
                           Credit Outstandings;

                           (iii) third, without duplication of any amounts paid
                  pursuant to clause (b)(ii) above, to the Indemnified Parties
                  to the extent of any amounts owing pursuant to Section 11.4 of
                  the Credit Agreement; and

                           (iv) fourth, paid over to the Grantor or to
                  whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

                  For purposes of this Security Agreement, the "credit exposure"
         at any time of any Secured Party with respect to a Rate Protection
         Agreement to which such Secured Party is a party shall be determined at
         such time in accordance with the customary methods of calculating
         credit exposure under similar arrangements by the counterparty to such
         arrangements, taking into account potential interest rate movements and
         the respective termination provisions and notional principal amount and
         term of such Rate Protection Agreement.

                  (c) The Administrative Agent may

                           (i) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into
                  the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, with or
                  without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien
                  hereunder,

                           (ii) notify the parties obligated on any of the
                  Collateral to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any
                  amount due or to become due thereunder,

                           (iii) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by
                  suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or
                  any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any
                  period (whether or not longer than the original period) any
                  obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto,

                           (iv) endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in
                  the Grantor's name to allow collection of the Collateral,



                                      -19-
<PAGE>
                           (v) take control of any proceeds of the Collateral,
                  and

                           (vi) execute (in the name, place and stead of the
                  Grantor) endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other
                  instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or
                  any of the Collateral.

         SECTION 6.2. Securities Laws. If the Administrative Agent shall
determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Collateral pursuant to
Section 6.1, the Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Administrative Agent,
the Grantor will, at its own expense:

                  (a) execute and deliver, and cause (or, with respect to any
         issuer which is not a Subsidiary of the Grantor, use its best efforts
         to cause) each issuer of the Collateral contemplated to be sold and the
         directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such
         instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other
         acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of the
         Administrative Agent, advisable to register such Collateral under the
         provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended
         (the "Securities Act"), and 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 reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or
         advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities
         Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto;

                  (b) use its best efforts to exempt the Collateral under the
         state securities or "Blue Sky" laws and to obtain all necessary
         governmental approvals for the sale of the Collateral, as requested by
         the Administrative Agent;

                  (c) cause (or, with respect to any issuer which is not a
         Subsidiary of the Grantor, use its best efforts to cause) each such
         issuer to make available to its security holders, as soon as
         practicable, an earnings statement that will satisfy the provisions of
         Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and

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

         SECTION 6.3. Compliance with Restrictions. The Grantor agrees that in
any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to
comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may
be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable
law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of
prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and
purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders
and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing
for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the
sale or of the purchaser by any Governmental Authority or official, and the
Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being


                                      -20-
<PAGE>
considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner,
nor shall the Administrative Agent be liable nor accountable to the Grantor for
any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in
compliance with any such limitation or restriction.

         SECTION 6.4. Protection of Collateral. The Administrative Agent may
from time to time, at its option, perform any act which the Grantor fails to
perform after being requested in writing so to perform (it being understood that
no such request need be given after the occurrence and during the continuance of
a Default of the type described in Section 8.1.9 of the Credit Agreement) and
the Administrative Agent may from time to time take any other action which the
Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary for the maintenance,
preservation or protection of any of the Collateral or of its security interest
therein.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         SECTION 7.2. Binding on Successors, Transferees and Assigns;
Assignment. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until
the Termination Date has occurred, shall be binding upon the Grantor and its
successors, transferees and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by each Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns;
provided that the Grantor may not (unless otherwise permitted under the terms of
the Credit Agreement) assign any of its obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of all Lenders.

         SECTION 7.3. Amendments, etc. No amendment to or waiver of any
provision of this Security Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the
Grantor from its obligations under this Security Agreement, shall in any event
be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the
case may be, pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement) and the Grantor
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the specific purpose for which given.

         SECTION 7.4. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be in writing or by facsimile and addressed, delivered or
transmitted to the appropriate party at the address or facsimile number of such
party specified in the Credit Agreement or at such other address or facsimile
number as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other party. Any

         SECTION 7.5. Release of Liens. Upon (a) the Disposition of Collateral
in accordance with the Credit Agreement or (b) the occurrence of the Termination
Date, the security interests granted herein shall automatically terminate with
respect to (i) such Collateral (in the case of clause (a)) or (ii) all
Collateral (in the case of clause (b)). Upon any such Disposition or
termination, the Administrative Agent will, at the Grantor's sole expense,
deliver to the Grantor, without any representations, warranties or recourse of
any kind whatsoever, all Collateral held by the Administrative Agent hereunder,
and execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor shall
reasonably request to evidence such termination.

         SECTION 7.6. No Waiver; Remedies. In addition to, and not in limitation
of Section 2.4, no failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies
herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by
law.

         SECTION 7.7. Headings. The various headings of this Security Agreement
are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Security Agreement or any provisions thereof.

         SECTION 7.8. Severability. Any provision of this Security Agreement
which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such

prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of
this Security Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such
provision in any other jurisdiction.

         SECTION 7.9. Governing Law, Entire Agreement, etc. THIS SECURITY
AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSE SECTIONS
5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK),
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST
HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. This

and thereof and supersede any prior agreements, written or oral, with respect
thereto.

         SECTION 7.10. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed by

                                      -22-

Collateral subject to the pledge or other Lien of a Foreign Pledge Agreement
are, and shall be deemed to be, supplemental and in addition to the rights,

Pledge Agreement, (i) to the extent that the provisions of such Foreign Pledge
Agreement or applicable foreign law are, under applicable foreign law, necessary
for the creation, perfection or priority of the security interests in the
Collateral subject to such Foreign Pledge Agreement, the terms of such Foreign
Pledge Agreement or such applicable law shall be controlling and (ii) otherwise,
the terms hereof shall be controlling.

modified from time to time, the "Security Agreement");

         WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement and pursuant to clause (e) of
Section 4.5 of the Security Agreement, the Grantor is required to execute and

title and interest in and to all copyrights registered in the United States

pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall (unless otherwise expressly indicated
herein) be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and
provisions thereof, including Article XI thereof.
