MLBFS a first  lien and  security  interest  in and upon all of the  Collateral,
subject only to Permitted Liens.

create or permit to exist any lien,  encumbrance  or security  interest  upon or
with  respect  to any  Collateral  now owned or  hereafter  acquired  other than
Permitted  Liens.

<PAGE>

(c)  PERFORMANCE OF  OBLIGATIONS.  Grantor shall perform all of its  obligations
owing on account of or with respect to the Collateral;  it being understood that
nothing  herein,  and no action or inaction by MLBFS,  under this  Agreement  or
otherwise,  shall be  deemed an  assumption  by MLBFS of any of  Grantor's  said
obligations.

(d) NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS.  Grantor shall give MLBFS immediate  notice of any
attachment,  lien, judicial process, encumbrance or claim affecting or involving
$25,000.00 or more of the Collateral.

(e)  INDEMNIFICATION.  Grantor shall  indemnify,  defend and save MLBFS harmless
from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, expenses (including, without
limitation,  reasonable  attorneys'  fees and expenses),  demands,  liabilities,
penalties,  fines and forfeitures of any nature whatsoever which may be asserted
against or incurred by MLBFS  arising out of or in any manner  occasioned by (i)
the ownership,  use, operation,  condition or maintenance of any Collateral,  or
(ii) any  failure  by  Grantor  to  perform  any of its  obligations  hereunder;
excluding,  however,  from said indemnity any such claims,  losses, etc. arising
out of the  willful  wrongful  act or active  gross  negligence  of MLBFS.  This
indemnity  shall survive the  expiration or  termination of this Agreement as to
all matters arising or accruing prior to such expiration or termination.

(f)  INSURANCE.  Grantor  shall  insure all of the tangible  Collateral  with an
insurer or insurers  reasonably  acceptable to MLBFS, under a policy or policies
of physical damage insurance  reasonably  acceptable to MLBFS providing that (i)
losses  will be  payable to MLBFS as its  interests  may  appear  pursuant  to a
Lender's Loss Payable endorsement, and  (ii) MLBFS will receive not less than 10
days  prior  written  notice of any  cancellation;  and  containing  such  other
provisions as may be reasonably  required by MLBFS.  Grantor shall maintain such
other  insurance as may be required by law or otherwise  reasonably  required by

(g) EVENT OF LOSS.  Grantor shall at its expense  promptly repair all repairable

damaged  beyond repair,  lost,  totally  destroyed or confiscated  (an "Event of
Loss") and such Collateral had a value prior to such Event of Loss of $25,000.00
or more,  then,  on or  before  the  first to  occur  of (i) 90 days  after  the
occurrence  of such Event of Loss,  or (ii) 10  Business  Days after the date on
which either Grantor or MLBFS shall receive any proceeds of insurance on account
of such  Event  of  Loss,  or any  underwriter  of  insurance  on such  tangible
Collateral  shall advise either Grantor or MLBFS that it disclaims  liability in
respect  of such Event of Loss,  Grantor  shall,  at  Grantor's  option,  either
replace the Collateral subject to such Event of Loss with comparable  Collateral
free of all liens other than  Permitted  Liens (in which event  Grantor shall be
entitled to utilize the  proceeds of  insurance on account of such Event of Loss
for such purpose, and may retain any excess proceeds of such insurance),  or pay
to MLBFS on account of the  Obligations an amount equal to the actual cash value
of such  Collateral as determined by either the applicable  insurance  company's
payment (plus any  applicable  deductible)  or, in absence of insurance  company
payment, as reasonably determined by MLBFS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at
the time of  occurrence  of such Event of Loss or any time  thereafter  prior to
replacement  or payment,  as aforesaid,  an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing hereunder,  then MLBFS may at its sole option,  exercisable at
any time while such Event of Default  shall be  continuing,  require  Grantor to
either replace such Collateral or make a payment on account of the  Obligations,
as aforesaid.

(h) SALES AND  COLLECTIONS.  So long as no Event of Default  shall have occurred
and be continuing,  Grantor may in the ordinary course of its business: (i) sell
any  Inventory  normally  held by  Grantor  for sale,  (ii) use or  consume  any
materials  and supplies  normally  held by Grantor for use or  consumption,  and
(iii) collect all of its  Accounts.  Grantor shall take such action with respect
to protection of its Inventory and the other  Collateral  and the  collection of
its Accounts as MLBFS may from time to time reasonably request.

(i) ACCOUNT  SCHEDULES.  Upon the  request of MLBFS,  made now or at any time or
times  hereafter,  Grantor  shall  deliver to MLBFS,  in  addition  to the other
information required hereunder, a schedule identifying, for each Account and all
Chattel  Paper  subject to MLBFS'  security  interests  hereunder,  each Account
Debtor by name and address and amount,  invoice number and date of each invoice.
Grantor shall furnish to MLBFS such additional  information  with respect to the
Collateral,  and  amounts  received  by  Grantor  as  proceeds  of  any  of  the
Collateral, as MLBFS may from time to time reasonably request.

(j)  LOCATION.  Except for  movements in the  ordinary  course of its  business,
Grantor  shall give MLBFS 30 days'  prior  written  notice of the  placing at or
movement of any tangible  Collateral  to any  location  other than a Location of
Tangible  Collateral.  In no event shall  Grantor  cause or permit any  tangible
Collateral  to be removed  from the United  States  without  the  express  prior
written consent of MLBFS.

(k) ALTERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE. Except upon the prior written consent of MLBFS,
Grantor  shall not make or  permit  any  material  alterations  to any  tangible
Collateral which might materially  reduce or impair its market value or utility.
Grantor shall at all times keep the tangible  Collateral  in good  condition and
repair and shall pay or cause to be paid all obligations arising from the repair

each  Location of Tangible  Collateral,  except for any such  obligations  being
contested by Grantor in good faith by appropriate proceedings.
