      of the Accounts or the Account Collateral upon such Person.

    2.    Security Interest;
Agency.

     

    (a)    Each of Bank,
the Company and Collateral Agent acknowledges that, in order to secure the
prompt and complete payment, performance and observance of all “Liabilities” (as defined in
the Security Agreement), the Company has granted, and for avoidance of doubt and
without limiting any prior grant, do hereby grant, to Collateral Agent, for the
benefit of itself and the Buyers, a continuing lien upon, and security interest
in, the Accounts and all funds, checks, cash, items, instruments, investments,
securities and other things of value at any time paid, deposited, credited or
held in, payable or withdrawable from or in transit to any Account (whether for
collection, provisionally or otherwise), and all other property of the Company
from time to time in the possession or under the control of, or in transit to,
the Bank or any agent, bailee or custodian therefor, and all proceeds of all of
the foregoing (collectively, the “Account
Collateral”).

     

    (b)    The
Bank agrees to comply with instructions originated by Collateral Agent directing
disposition of the funds in the Accounts or any other Account Collateral or to
take such other action as shall from time to time be specified in writing from
Collateral Agent, in all cases without notice to or the consent of the
Company.  The Bank shall follow the instructions of Collateral Agent
as to the holding, investment and transfer of all Account Collateral (including
without limitation, any instructions to transfer such collected amounts to
Buyers or to an account designated by Collateral Agent).  The Company
hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Bank to comply with any such
instructions by Collateral Agent without further action or consent by the
Company and notwithstanding any subsequent objection or contrary direction the
Bank may receive from the Company.  In addition, the Company agrees
that the Bank may act as the agent of Collateral Agent in exercising any rights
of set-off provided by applicable law or by any Transaction Document as to any
Account Collateral.  The Company agrees that the Bank shall be
entitled to rely, without independent investigation, on any written notice in
the form of Exhibit
A from Collateral Agent to the effect that an Event of Default (each as
defined in the Notes) has occurred and is continuing or any other statement of
Collateral Agent to the effect that any exercise of set-off requested by
Collateral Agent is permitted under applicable law, the Security Agreement or
any applicable Transaction Document.

     

    (c)    Without
limiting or qualifying the provisions of clause (b) above, Collateral Agent, on
its behalf and on behalf of the Buyers, hereby appoints the Bank as Collateral
Agent’s and the Buyers’ agent and pledgee-in-possession for the Accounts and all
Account Collateral, for the purpose of perfecting Collateral Agent’s and the
Buyers’ security interest therein; and the Bank by its execution and delivery of
this Agreement hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement.  The Company each hereby agrees to such
appointment of the Bank and further agrees that the Bank, on behalf of
Collateral Agent and the Buyers, shall be entitled to exercise, upon the
instructions of Collateral Agent, any and all rights that the Collateral Agent
and the Buyers may have under the Purchase Agreement, the Security Agreement and
all other agreements, documents and instruments executed pursuant thereto, or
under applicable law, with respect to the Accounts and the Account
Collateral.

     

    3.    Debtor’s Access to
Accounts.   Collateral Agent agrees that, until such time
as Bank receives written notice in the form of Exhibit A from
Collateral Agent of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Company shall be
allowed access to the Accounts and the Account Collateral without Collateral
Agent’s further consent (including, without limitation, presenting items drawn
on the Accounts or giving Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or other
disposition of any funds from time to time credited to the Accounts); provided,
that the Company shall not be permitted to close any of the
Accounts.  Upon receipt by Bank of notice by Collateral Agent of the
occurrence of an Event of Default, and at all times thereafter, the Company
shall not be entitled access to the Accounts or the Account Collateral and the
Bank shall not comply with any instructions or directions originated by the
Company or otherwise permit the Company access to or control over the Accounts
or the Account Collateral, including without limitation giving stop payment
orders, presenting items for payment or making withdrawals
therefrom.

     

    4.    Irrevocable
Agreement.  The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges that the
agreements made by it and the authorizations granted by it herein are
irrevocable and that the authorizations granted herein are powers coupled with
an interest.

     

    5.    Set-off.  The
Bank hereby waives all existing and future rights of recoupment or set-off and
banker’s liens against the Accounts and the Account Collateral, except those
rights of set-off and banker’s liens arising in connection with (a) items
deposited in the Accounts that are subsequently returned to the Bank unpaid and
(b) any compensation and expenses owing and payable to Bank with respect to the
Accounts which are assessed in accordance with the Bank’s standard account
documentation.

    6.    Account
Information.  The Bank shall provide Collateral Agent, at the
address indicated in Section 11 below, with such information with respect to the
Accounts and Account Collateral as Collateral Agent may from time to time
reasonably request, including, without limitation and duplicate copies of all
bank statements which are sent to the Company.  The Company hereby
consents to such information being provided to Collateral Agent.

     

    7.    Exculpation.  The
Bank undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth
herein.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the
parties hereto agree that the Bank shall not be liable for any action taken by
it or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees in accordance with
this Agreement.  In no event shall the Bank be liable for indirect,
special or consequential damages.

     

    8.    Indemnity.  The
Company agrees to indemnify the Bank and hold it harmless against any loss,
damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other litigation
expenses) which it may suffer as a direct result of the Bank’s entering into
this Agreement and performing its obligation hereunder, including, honoring any
instructions or direction it receives from Collateral Agent with respect to the
Accounts during the term of this Agreement, other than any loss, damage or
expense incurred as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of,
or breach of this Agreement by, the Bank or its officers, agents or
employees.

     

    9.    No Other
Assignments.  Bank represents and warrants to Collateral Agent,
on its behalf and on behalf of the Buyers, that no other notices of assignment
of, lien upon or security interest in the Accounts or the Account Collateral are
reflected in Bank’s records concerning the Accounts, and Bank has no knowledge
of any such assignment or lien.  The Company hereby instructs Bank and
Bank hereby agrees to record in Bank’s records concerning the Accounts any such
notice of assignment of the Accounts that it receives, including the notice
conferred by this Agreement.  Bank agrees with and covenants to
Collateral Agent, on its behalf and on behalf of the Buyers, that it shall not
enter into any other agreement with any Person which would obligate Bank to
follow such Person’s instructions with respect to the Account or the Account
Collateral, or which would otherwise confer control of the Accounts or the
Account Collateral upon such Person.

     

    10.    Termination.  This
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until such time as Collateral
Agent shall deliver written notice to the Bank that all of the Liabilities have
been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Security Agreement has been
terminated, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate.  All rights of
the Bank under Sections 7 and 8 for the period prior to any such termination
shall survive such termination.

     

    11.    Notices.  Any
notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be
given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to
have been delivered:  (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally;
(ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission
