NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the above Recitals and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

AGREEMENT

 

1.             The Creditor has extended and may in the

2.             The Creditor is or will be the sole and
absolute owner of the Claims and has not sold, assigned, transferred or
otherwise disposed of any right it may have to repayment of the Claims or any
security therefor.

 

3.             The Claims and all rights and remedies of the
Creditor with respect thereto and any lien securing payment thereof are and
shall continue to be subject, subordinate and rendered junior in the right of
payment to the Senior Obligations, as the same may be extended, amended or
replaced from time to time.

 

 

4.             The Company and the Creditor hereby agree

waived pursuant to the Credit Agreement, until the Senior Obligations are paid
in full and the Lenders have no further obligation to make Loans under the
Credit Agreement:

 

(a)           The Company will not make or give, and the Creditor will not receive,
directly or indirectly, any payment, advance, credit or further security of any
kind whatsoever on account of the Claims, or any new or further evidence
thereof;

 

(b)           The Creditor will not sell, assign, transfer or endorse the Claims or
any part or evidence thereof;

 

(c)           The Creditor will not modify the Claims or any part or evidence thereof;

notice of acceptance of this Subordination Agreement by the Lenders, and each

and without notice to the Creditor, lend money to or make other financial
arrangements with the Company in reliance hereon until written notice of
termination shall be delivered by the Creditor to the Lenders by certified
mail, return receipt requested.  The
receipt by the Lenders of such notice shall not affect this Subordination

Obligations incurred thereafter pursuant to a previous commitment by the
Lenders or to any amendments to, or extensions or renewals of, any such Senior
Obligations.

 

7.             In the event of a default in the performance
or observance of any of the foregoing, the Senior Obligations shall forthwith

demand or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived.

 

8.             The Creditor agrees as follows:

of the Company upon the dissolution, winding up, liquidation, arrangement, or
reorganization of the Company, whether in any bankruptcy, insolvency,
arrangement, reorganization or receivership proceeding or upon an assignment
for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and
liabilities of the Company or otherwise, any payment or distribution of any
kind (whether in cash, property or securities) which otherwise would be payable
or deliverable upon or with respect to the Claims shall be paid or delivered
directly to the Administrative Agent for application (in the case of cash) to,
or as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities)

 

2

 

for, the payment or prepayment of the Senior
Obligations until the Senior Obligations shall have been paid in full.

 

(b)           If any proceeding referred to in subsection (a) above is commenced by
or against the Company:

 

(1)           The Lenders are hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in their
own name or in the name of the Creditor or otherwise), but shall have no
obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or
distribution referred to in subsection (a) above and give acquittance therefor
and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including,
without limitation, voting the Claims or enforcing any security interest or
other lien securing payment of the Claims) as the Lenders may deem necessary or
advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of
the Lenders hereunder; and

 

(2)           The Creditor shall duly and promptly take such action as the Lenders

and deliver to the Administrative Agent such powers of attorney, assignments,
or other instruments as it may request in order to enable it to enforce any and

or distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to
the Claims.

 

(c)           All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the Claims which
are received by the Creditor contrary to the provisions of this Subordination
Agreement shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Lenders, shall be
segregated from other funds and property held by the Creditor and shall be
forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received
(with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to, or
held as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for, the
payment or prepayment of the Senior Obligations.

 

(d)           The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders is hereby authorized
to demand specific performance of this Subordination Agreement, whether or not
the Company shall have complied with any or all of the provisions hereof
applicable to the Company, at any time when the Creditor shall have failed to
comply with any of the provisions of this Subordination Agreement applicable to
it.

 

9.             It is the intent of the Creditor to create by
this Subordination Agreement a security interest in favor of the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in the Claims and in the Creditor’s other
rights to receive money or other property from the Company, whether such rights
shall constitute accounts, contract rights, chattel paper, instruments, general
intangibles or otherwise.  The Creditor
hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a
security interest in the Claims in order to secure the payment and performance
of the Creditor’ obligations pursuant to this Subordination Agreement.

 

10.           The Creditor authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders

or demand (except as shall be

 

3

 

required by applicable statute and cannot be
waived), and without affecting or impairing the Creditor’s obligations
hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, compromise, extend, increase,
accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the
terms of the Senior Obligations or any part thereof, including without
limitation to increase or decrease the rate of interest thereon; (b) take
and hold security for the payment of the Senior Obligations and exchange,
enforce, waive and release any such security; (c) apply such security and
direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release and
substitute any one or more endorsers, warrantors, the Company or other
obligors.

12.           This Subordination Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement and any
party hereto may execute this Subordination Agreement by signing any such
counterpart.

 

13.           This Subordination Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to
its choice of law rules.

 

14.           ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS SUBORDINATION
AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR OF THE
UNITED STATES FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA, AND BY EXECUTION AND
DELIVERY OF THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE CREDITOR, THE COMPANY AND
