The Grantors shall remain liable, jointly and  severally,  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 the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.                                      ARTICLE VIII                                 GENERAL PROVISIONS         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 Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party 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  Administrative  Agent  or  such  other  Secured  Party  as  determined  by  a  court  of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.  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 Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, 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, or otherwise.  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, 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 or any Collateral.  Without  limiting  any  other  waiver  or  provision , each  Grantor  waives,  to  the  maximum  extent  permitted by  law,  (a)  all  benefits  or  defenses  directly  or  indirectly  arising  under  California  Civil  Code  §§  2787, 2799,  2808,  2815,  2819,  2820,  2821,  2822,  2838,  2839,  2847,  2848,  and  2855,  Chapter  2  of  Title  14  of the  California  Civil  Code,  and  California  Code  of  Civil  Procedure  §§  580a,  580b,  580c,  580d,  and  726  or any  similar  laws  of  any  other  applicable  jurisdiction,  (b)  all  rights  and  defenses  arising  out  of  an  election of  remedies  by  the  creditor,  even  though  that  election  of  remedies,  such  as  a  nonjudicial  foreclosure  with respect  to  security  for  a  guaranteed  obligation,  has  destroyed  the  guarantor’s  rights  of  subrogation  and reimbursement   against   the   principal   by   the   operation   of   Section   580d   of   the   California   Code   of   Civil Procedure  or  otherwise  and  (c)  any  defense  arising  by  reason  of  or  deriving  from  (i)  any  claim  or  defense based   upon   an   election   of   remedies   by   the  Secured   Parties  or   (ii)   any   election   by  the  Secured  Parties under   the   Bankruptcy   Code,   to   limit   the   amount   of,   or   any   collateral   securing,   its   claim   against   any Grantor.         8.2.  Limitation  on  Administrative  Agent’s  and  Other  Secured  Parties’  Duty  with  Respect  to the  Collateral .  The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.  The Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party 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 Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party, 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  Administrative  Agent  to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is                                            22 - -

 

commercially reasonable for the Administrative Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative 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 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 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 the 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 Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative 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  Administrative Agent  would  be  commercially  reasonable  in  the Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine  or  abandon  any  Receivable,  and  any  such  action  by  the  Administrative  Agent  shall  be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent for any amounts  paid  by  the  Administrative  Agent  pursuant  to  this  Section 8.4 .   The  Grantors’  obligation  to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding  sentence  shall  be  a  Secured  Obligation payable on demand.                                             23 - -

Benefit   of   Agreement .  The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement  shall  be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, hereunder.         8.11. 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.         8.12. Taxes  and  Expenses .

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.         8.13. 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.         8.14.

Entire   Agreement .   This  Security  Agreement  embodies  the  entire  agreement  and understanding  between  the  Grantors  and  the  Administrative  Agent  relating  to  the  Collateral  and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral.         8.16. CHOICE   OF  LAW .  THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.                                             25 - -
