conduct a physical count of its Inventory at least once per Fiscal Year, and

as the Agent requests. Such Grantor, at its own expense, shall deliver to the
Agent the results of each physical verification, which such Grantor has made,
or has caused any other Person to make on its behalf, of all or any portion of
its Inventory. Such Grantor will maintain a perpetual inventory reporting
system at all times. (d) Equipment. Such Grantor shall promptly inform the Agent of any
additions to or deletions from its Equipment which individually exceed

Agent to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant
registration and to maintain the registration of each of its Patents,

Patent, Trademark or Copyright is in no way material to the conduct of its
business or operations, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or
dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement,

enforce all of its rights and remedies thereunder, in each case, as it deems
appropriate in its business judgment; provided however, thatsuch Grantor shall
not take any action or fail to take any action with respect to its Assigned
Contracts which would cause the termination of a material Assigned Contract.

action necessary or appropriate to permit, and shall not take any action which
would have any materially adverse effect upon, the full enforcement of all
indemnification rights under its Assigned Contracts. Such Grantor shall notify
the Agent and the Lenders in writing, promptly after such Grantor becomes aware
thereof, of any event or fact which could give rise to a material claim by it
for indemnification under any of its Assigned Contracts, and shall diligently
pursue such right (if commercially reasonable) and report to the Agent on all
further developments with respect thereto. Such Grantor shall deposit into a
Deposit Account at the Agent or subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement
for application to the Secured Obligations, in accordance with Section 2.18 of
the Credit Agreement, all amounts received by such Grantor as indemnification
or otherwise pursuant to its Assigned Contracts. If such Grantor shall fail
after the Agents demand to pursue diligently any right under its Assigned
Contracts, or if a Default then exists, the Agent may, and at the direction of
the Required Secured Parties shall, directly enforce such right in its own or
such Grantors name and may enter into such settlements or other agreements
with respect thereto as the Agent or the Required Secured Parties, as
applicable, shall determine. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the
Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under any Assigned Contract for any sum
owing thereunder or to enforce any provision thereof, such Grantor shall

arising out of a breach by such Grantor of any obligation thereunder or arising
out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing from
such Grantor to or in favor of such obligor or its successors, except to the
extent attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
indemnified party. All such obligations of such Grantor shall be and remain
enforceable only against such Grantor and shall not be enforceable against the
Agent or the Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary,
such Grantor shall at all times remain liable to observe and perform all of its
duties and obligations under its Assigned Contracts, and the Agents or any
Lenders exercise of any of their respective rights with respect to the
Collateral shall not release such Grantor from any of such duties and
obligations. Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be obligated to perform or
fulfill any of such Grantors duties or obligations under its Assigned
Contracts or to make any payment thereunder, or to make any inquiry as to the
nature or sufficiency of any payment or property received by it thereunder or
the sufficiency of performance by any party thereunder, or to present or file
any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance, any
payment of any amounts, or any delivery of any property. ARTICLE V

Lender. (d) The occurrence of any Default under, and as defined in, the Credit
Agreement. (e) Any Capital Stock which is included within the Collateral shall at any

to the Agent and such Security is properly defined as such under Article 8 of
the UCC of the applicable jurisdiction, whether as a result of actions by the
issuer thereof or otherwise, or (ii) the Agent has entered into a control
agreement with the issuer of such Security or with a securities intermediary
relating to such Security and such Security is defined as such under Article 8
of the UCC of the applicable jurisdiction, whether as a result of actions by

of the following rights and remedies: (i) those rights and remedies provided in this Security

available to the Agent and the Lenders prior to a Default; (ii) those rights and remedies available to a secured party
under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including,
without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a banks
right of setoff or bankers lien) when a debtor is in default

receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign,
grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose
of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part
thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or

commercially reasonable; and (v) concurrently with written notice to the applicable
Grantor, transfer and register in its name or in the name of

to exchange certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments
of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and
all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect
and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other
distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect
to the Pledged Collateral as though the Agent was the outright
owner thereof. (b) The Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may comply with any applicable
state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the
Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the
commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. (c) The Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and,
to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to
purchase for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, the whole or any part of
the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity
redemption each Grantor hereby expressly releases. (d) Until the Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition
of Collateral, the Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any

by the Agent. The Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a
receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the
Agents remedies (for the benefit of the Agent and Lenders), with respect to
such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. (e) If, after the Credit Agreement has terminated by its terms and all of
the Obligations have been paid in full, there remain Rate Management

provided in this Section 5.2 upon the occurrence of any event which would allow
or require the termination or acceleration of any Rate Management Obligations
pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing any Rate Management
Transaction. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall

Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal
the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the
Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a
public sale of any Collateral. (g) Each Grantor recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a
public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort
to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with clause (a) above. Each
Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other
terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and,

establish lock box service (the Lock Boxes) with the bank(s) set forth in
Exhibit B, which lock boxes shall be subject to irrevocable lockbox agreements
in the form provided by or otherwise acceptable to the Agent in its Permitted
Discretion and shall be accompanied by an acknowledgment by the bank where the
Lock Box is located of the Lien of the Agent granted hereunder and of

instructions to wire all amounts collected therein to the Collection
Account (a Lock Box Agreement). After the Closing Date, each Grantor will
comply with the terms of Section 7.2. (b) Each Grantor shall direct all of its Account Debtors to forward
payments directly to Lock Boxes subject to Lock Box Agreements. The Agent
shall have sole access to the Lock Boxes at all times and each Grantor shall
take all actions necessary to grant the Agent such sole access. At no time
shall any Grantor remove any item from a Lock Box or from a Collateral Deposit
Account without the Agents prior written consent. If any Grantor should
refuse or neglect to notify any Account Debtor to forward payments directly to
a Lock Box subject to a Lock Box Agreement after notice from the Agent, the
Agent shall be entitled to make such notification directly to Account Debtor.
If notwithstanding the foregoing instructions, any Grantor receives any
proceeds of any Receivables, such Grantor shall receive such payments as the
Agents trustee, and shall immediately deposit all cash, checks or other
similar payments related to or constituting payments made in respect of
Receivables received by it to a Collateral Deposit Account. All funds
deposited into any Lock Box subject to a Lock Box Agreement or a Collateral
Deposit Account will be swept on a daily basis into a collection account
maintained by the Borrower Representative with the Agent (the Collection
Account). The Agent shall hold and apply funds received into the Collection
Account as provided by the terms of Section 7.3. 7.2. Covenant Regarding New Deposit Accounts; Lock Boxes. Before opening
or replacing any Collateral Deposit Account, other Deposit Account, or
establishing a new Lock Box, each Grantor shall (a) obtain the Agents consent
in writing to the opening of such Deposit Account or Lock Box, and (b) cause
each bank or financial institution in which it seeks to open (i) a Deposit
Account, to enter into a Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Agent in
order to give the Agent Control of such Deposit Account, or (ii) a Lock Box, to
enter into a Lock Box Agreement with the Agent in order to give the Agent
Control of the Lock Box. In the case of Deposit Accounts or Lock Boxes
maintained with Lenders, the terms of such letter shall be subject to the
provisions of the Credit Agreement regarding setoffs. 7.3. Application of Proceeds; Deficiency. All amounts deposited in the
Collection Account shall be deemed received by the Agent in accordance with
Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement and shall, after having been credited in
immediately available funds to the Collection Account, be applied (and
allocated) by Agent in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement.
In no event shall any amount be so applied unless and until such amount shall
have been credited in immediately available funds to the Collection Account.
The Agent shall require all other cash proceeds of the Collateral, which are
not required to be applied to the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.15 of the
Credit Agreement, to be deposited in a special non-interest bearing cash
collateral account with the Agent and held there as security for the Secured
Obligations. No Grantor shall have any control whatsoever over said cash
collateral account. Any such proceeds of the Collateral shall be applied in
the order set forth in Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement unless a court of
competent jurisdiction shall otherwise direct. The balance, if any, after all
of the Secured Obligations have been satisfied, shall be deposited by the Agent
into the Borrower Representatives general operating account with the Agent.
The Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale
or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Secured
Obligations, including any attorneys fees and other expenses incurred by Agent
or any Lender to collect such deficiency. ARTICLE VIII

8.1. Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of
any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition
of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice
may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed
reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at
least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time
after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims,
damages, and demands against the Agent or any Lender arising out of the
repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except such as arise solely
out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or such Lender
as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it
may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and
relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against
the Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium,
redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a
surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be
applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or
decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this
Security Agreement, the IP Security Agreements or otherwise. Except as
otherwise specifically provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, each Grantor
hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security
Agreement, the IP Security Agreements or any Collateral. 8.2. Limitation on Agents and Lenders Duty with Respect to the
Collateral. The Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise
prepare the Collateral for sale. The Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable
care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control.
Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral
in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or
nominee of the Agent or such Lender, or any income thereon or as to the
preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining
thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Agent to
exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor
acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Agent (i) to
fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Agent to prepare Collateral
for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into
finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to
obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to
obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or
third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be
collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against
Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on
or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies
against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or
through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to
advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general
circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to
contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for
expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral,
(vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition
of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii)
to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the
auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the
reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets,
(ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to
disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment,
(xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Agent against
risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the
Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or
(xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, to obtain the services of
other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to
assist the Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.
Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.2 is to provide
non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Agent would be
commercially reasonable in the Agents exercise of remedies against the APC PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT  Page 22

##### 



Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Agent shall not be
deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in
this Section 8.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in
this Section 8.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to
impose any duties on the Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by
this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section
8.2. 8.3. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. The Grantors and the Agent
recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be
asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain
of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that
the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may
exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect
to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Agent
may at any time and from time to time, if a Default has occurred and is
continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full
payment of any Receivable such amount as the Agent in its sole discretion shall
determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Agent shall be
commercially reasonable so long as the Agent acts in good faith based on
information known to it at the time it takes any such action. 8.4. Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any
obligation to do so, the Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any
Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Security Agreement and the
Grantors shall reimburse the Agent for any amounts paid by the Agent pursuant
to this Section 8.4. The Grantors obligation to reimburse the Agent pursuant
to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable on demand. 8.5. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges
and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1(d),
4.1(e), 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.12, 5.3, or 8.7 or in Article VII
will cause irreparable injury to the Agent and the Lenders, that the Agent and
Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and
therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Agent or the Lenders to
seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors
contained in this Security Agreement, that the covenants of the Grantors
contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically
enforceable against the Grantors. 8.6. Use and Possession of Certain Premises. During the continuance of a
Default, the Agent shall be entitled to occupy and use any premises owned or
leased by any Grantor where any of the Collateral or any records relating to
the Collateral are located until the Secured Obligations are paid or the
Collateral is removed therefrom, whichever first occurs, without any obligation
to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy. 8.7. Dispositions Not Authorized. No Grantor is authorized to sell or
otherwise dispose of the Collateral except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) and
notwithstanding any course of dealing between any Grantor and the Agent or
other conduct of the Agent, no authorization to sell or otherwise dispose of
the Collateral (except as set forth in Section 4.1(d)) shall be binding upon
the Agent or the Lenders unless such authorization is in writing signed by the
Agent with the consent or at the direction of the Required Secured Parties. 8.8. No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No delay or omission of
the Agent or any Lender to exercise any right or remedy granted under this
Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a
waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial
exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver,
amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this
Security APC PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT  Page 23

Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Agent
with the concurrence or at the direction of the Lenders required under Section
8.3 of the Credit Agreement and then only to the extent in such writing
specifically set forth. All rights and remedies contained in this Security
Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to
the Agent and the Lenders until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full. 8.9. Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies
and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the
extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of
law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be
subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling
and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this
Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or
registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in any this Security Agreement
that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction
shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid
without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the
operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other
jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are
declared to be severable. 8.10. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or
against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor
become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or
creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any
significant part of any Grantors assets, and shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of
the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law,
rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by
any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a voidable preference,
fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise, all as though such payment or
performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part
thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations
shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so
rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 8.11. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the
Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including
all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except
that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its
obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the
prior written consent of the Agent. No sales of participations, assignments,
transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured
Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner
impair the Lien granted to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the
Lenders, hereunder. 8.12. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of
the Grantors contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution
and delivery of this Security Agreement. 8.13. Taxes and Expenses. Any taxes (including income taxes) payable or
ruled payable by Federal or State authority in respect of this Security
Agreement shall be paid by the Grantors, together with interest and penalties,
if any. The Grantors shall reimburse the Agent for any and all out-of-pocket
expenses and internal charges (including reasonable attorneys, auditors and
accountants fees and reasonable time charges of attorneys, paralegals,
auditors and accountants who may be employees of the Agent) paid or incurred by
the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in
the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the APC PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT  Page 24

Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any
periodic or special audit of the Collateral), subject to any limitations on the
amounts reimbursable set forth in the Credit Agreement. Any and all costs and
expenses incurred by the Grantors in the performance of actions required
pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by the Grantors. 8.14. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security
Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the
interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement. 8.15. Termination. This Security Agreement shall continue in effect
(notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no Secured
Obligations outstanding) until (i) the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant
to its express terms and (ii) all of the Secured Obligations have been
indefeasibly paid and performed in full (or with respect to any outstanding
Facility LCs, a cash deposit or Supporting Letter of Credit has been delivered
to the Agent as required by the Credit Agreement) and no commitments of the
Agent or the Lenders which would give rise to any Secured Obligations are
outstanding. 8.16. Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement embodies the entire
agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Agent relating to the
Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the
Grantors and the Agent relating to the Collateral. 8.17. CHOICE OF LAW. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS)
OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL
BANKS. 8.18. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO
THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY U.S. FEDERAL OR TEXAS STATE COURT SITTING
IN DALLAS, TEXAS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
SECURITY AGREEMENT, THE IP SECURITY AGREEMENTS OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND
EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE
OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH
COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE
AGENT OR ANY LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GRANTOR IN THE COURTS OF
ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY GRANTOR AGAINST THE
AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING,
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR
CONNECTED WITH THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, THE IP SECURITY AGREEMENTS OR ANY OTHER

HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR
