     and either (x) a Debtor delivers such uncertificated securities to the

     comply with instructions originated by the Secured Party without further
     consent by Debtor, and (iii) such Investment Property consists of security
     entitlements and either (x) the Secured Party becomes the entitlement
     holder thereof or (y) the appropriate securities intermediary agrees,

will defend the Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to
remove, any lien or other encumbrance on the Collateral except Permitted Liens,

Collateral and in and to all Proceeds thereof against the claims and demands of
all Persons whatsoever.

promptly pay, or reimburse the Secured Party for, all expenses incurred in
connection therewith.

     4.4 Name Change; Location; Bailees.

          (a) Debtor will notify Secured Party promptly in writing prior to any
     change in Debtor's name, identity or corporate structure, or the proposed
     use by Debtor of any tradename or fictitious business name other than any
     such name set forth on Schedule II attached hereto.

          (b) Except for the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of
     business and except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, Debtor
     will keep the Collateral at the locations specified in Schedule I
     applicable to Debtor. Debtor will give Secured Party thirty (30) day's
     prior written notice of any change in Debtor's chief place of business,
     state of organization or of any new location for any of the Collateral.

          (c) If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of

     bailee, consignee or processor of the lien and security interest created
     hereby and shall instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for
     Secured Party's account subject to Secured Party's instructions.

     4.5 Deposit Accounts.

          (a) At Secured Party's request, on or prior to the Closing Date, or at
     any time thereafter, the Secured Party and Debtor shall enter into a bank

     Pursuant to the Bank Agency Agreements and pursuant hereto, Debtor grants

<PAGE>

     Party a continuing lien upon, and security interest in, all such Deposit
     Accounts and all funds at any time paid, deposited, credited or held in
     such accounts (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) or
     otherwise in the possession of such financial institutions, and each such
     financial institution shall act as the Secured Party's agent in connection
     therewith. Following the Closing Date, no Debtor shall establish any
     Deposit Account with any financial institution unless prior thereto, at the
     request of Secured Party, the Secured Party and Debtor shall have entered
     into a Bank Agency Agreement with such financial institution.

          (b) Upon the Secured Party's request, Debtor shall establish lock-box
     or blocked accounts (collectively, "Blocked Accounts") in Debtor's name
     with such banks as are acceptable to the Secured Party ("Collecting
     Banks"), subject to irrevocable instructions in a form specified by the
     Secured Party, to which the obligors of all Accounts and payment
     intangibles shall directly remit all payments on Accounts and payment
     intangibles and in which Debtor will immediately deposit all cash payments
     for Inventory or other cash payments constituting proceeds of Collateral in
     the identical form in which such payment was made, whether by cash or
     check. In addition, the Secured Party may establish one or more depository
     accounts at each Collecting Bank or at a centrally located bank
     (collectively, the "Depository Account"). From and after receipt by any
     Collecting Bank of written notice from the Secured Party to such Collecting
     Bank that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all amounts
     held or deposited in the Blocked Accounts held by such Collecting Bank
     shall be transferred to the Depository Account. Subject to the foregoing,
     Debtor hereby agrees that all payments received by the Secured Party
     whether by cash, check, wire transfer or any other instrument, made to such
     Blocked Accounts or otherwise received by the Secured Party and whether in
     respect of the Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral or otherwise
     will be the sole and exclusive property of the Secured Party for the
     benefit of the Secured Party. Debtor, and any of its affiliates, employees,
     agents and other Persons acting for or in concert with Debtor shall, acting
     as trustee for the Secured Party, receive, as the sole and exclusive
     property of the Secured Party, any moneys, checks, notes, drafts or other
     payments relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts, Payment Intangibles or
     other Collateral which come into the possession or under the control of
     Debtor or any affiliates, employees, agent or other Persons acting for or
     in concert with Debtor, and immediately upon receipt thereof, Debtor or
     Persons shall deposit the same or cause the same to be deposited in kind,
     in a Blocked Account.

     4.6 Events of Default, Etc. During the period during which an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

          (a) Debtor shall, at the request of the Secured Party or its
     Representative, assemble the Collateral at such place or places as may be
     reasonably designated by the Secured Party or its Representative;

          (b) the Secured Party or its Representative may make any reasonable
     compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the
     Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in
     installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral;

<PAGE>

          (c) the Secured Party shall have all of the rights and remedies with
     respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial
     Code (whether or not said Uniform Commercial Code is in effect in the
     jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such
     additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under
     the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies
     hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the
     maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and
     other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Secured
     Party were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and Debtor agrees to take
     all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

          (d) the Secured Party or its Representative in their discretion may,
     in the name of the Secured Party or in the name of Debtor or otherwise,
     demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time
     payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the
     Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so;

          (e) the Secured Party or its Representative may take immediate
     possession and occupancy of any premises owned, used or leased by Debtor
     and exercise all other rights and remedies of an assignee which may be
     available to the Secured Party; and

          (f) the Secured Party may, upon ten (10) Business Days' prior written
     notice to Debtor of the time and place (which notice Debtor hereby agrees
     is commercially reasonable notification for purposes hereof), with respect
     to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall
     thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Secured
     Party or its Representative, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of
     all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Secured
     Party deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery
     (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale,
     without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such
     disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is
     required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the
     Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or
     recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale
     (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter
     hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind,
     including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of
     Debtor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly
     waived and released. The Secured Party may, without notice or publication,
     adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from
     time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and
     such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so
     adjourned.

The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section
4.6 shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.9 hereof.

         4.7 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other
realization of or upon the Collateral are insufficient to cover the costs and
expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Liabilities, Debtor
shall remain liable for any deficiency.

<PAGE>

     4.8 Private Sale. Debtor recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to
effect a public sale of any or all of the Collateral consisting of securities by
reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act"), and applicable state securities laws, but may be compelled
to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of
purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such
Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that any such
private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller
than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances,
agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a
commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall be under no obligation
to delay a sale of any of the Collateral to permit Debtor to register such
Collateral for public sale under the Act, or under applicable state securities
laws, even if Debtor would agree to do so. The Secured Party shall not incur any
liability as a result of the sale of any such Collateral, or any part thereof,
at any private sale provided for in this Agreement conducted in a commercially
reasonable manner, and Debtor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party
arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have
been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been
obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the
Liabilities, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does
not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

     Debtor further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and
things as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any portion or all of
any such Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all
applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of
any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or
foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at Debtor's
expense, provided that Debtor shall be under no obligation to take any action to
enable any or all of such Collateral to be registered under the provisions of
the Act. Debtor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained
in this Section 4.8 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the
Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in this Section 4.8
shall be specifically enforceable against Debtor, and Debtor hereby waives and
agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of
such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.

     4.9 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any collection, sale or other
realization of all or any part of the Collateral, and any other cash at the time
held by the Secured Party under this Agreement, shall be applied:

          first, to payment of all expenses payable or reimbursable under this
     Agreement or the Note;

          second, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Liabilities;

          third, to payment of principal of the Liabilities;

          fourth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting
     Liabilities; and

<PAGE>

          last, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to Debtor.

     4.10 Attorney-in-Fact. Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
the Secured Party, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and
stead of Debtor and in the name of Debtor or in its own name, from time to time
in the discretion of the Secured Party, for the purpose of carrying out the
terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute
and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right,
on behalf of Debtor, without notice to or assent by Debtor, to do the following
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default:

          (a) to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittance and receipts
     for any and all moneys due and to become due under any Collateral and, in
     the name of Debtor or its own name or otherwise, to take possession of and
     endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other
     Instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Collateral and to file
     any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or
     equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured Party for the purpose
     of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever
     payable and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in
     any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured
     Party for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any
     Collateral whenever payable;

          (b) to pay or discharge charges or liens levied or placed on or
     threatened against the Collateral other than the Permitted Liens, to effect
     any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and to pay all or
     any part of the premiums therefor;

          (c) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the
     Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due, and to become due
     thereunder, directly to the Secured Party or as the Secured Party shall
     direct, and to receive payment of and receipt for any and all moneys,
     claims and other amounts due, and to become due at any time, in respect of
     or arising out of any Collateral;

          (d) to sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills
     of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors,
     assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts and
     other Documents constituting or relating to the Collateral;

          (e) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law
     or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the
     Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of
     any Collateral;

          (f) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Debtor
     with respect to any Collateral;

<PAGE>

          (g) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding
     described above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or
     releases as the Secured Party may deem appropriate; and

          (h) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with
     respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and
     completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owners thereof for
     all purposes, and to do, at the Secured Party's option and at Debtor's
     expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the
     Secured Party reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize
     upon the Collateral and the Secured Party's lien therein, in order to
     effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Debtor
     might do.

     Debtor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that such
attorneys lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of
attorney granted hereunder is a power coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable until the Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full.

     Debtor also authorizes the Secured Party, at any time from and after the
occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, (x) to
communicate in its own name with any party to any Contract with regard to the
assignment of the right, title and interest of Debtor in and under the Contracts
hereunder and other matters relating thereto and (y) to execute, in connection
with any sale of Collateral provided for in Section 4.5 hereof, any
endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with
respect to the Collateral.

     4.11 Perfection. Prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, Debtor shall:

          (a) file such financing statements, assignments for security and other
     documents in such offices as may be necessary or as the Secured Party or
     the Representative may request to perfect the security interests granted by
     Section 3 of this Agreement;

          (b) at Secured Party's request, deliver to the Secured Party or its
     Representative the originals of all Instruments together with, in the case
     of Instruments constituting promissory notes, allonges attached thereto
     showing such promissory notes to be payable to the order of a blank payee;
     and

          (c) at Secured Party's request, deliver to the Secured Party or its
     Representative the originals of all Motor Vehicle titles, duly endorsed
     indicating the Secured Party's interest therein as lienholder.

     Debtor hereby authorizes Secured Party to file a financing statement
describing the Collateral

     4.12 Termination. This Agreement and the liens and security interests
granted hereunder shall not terminate until satisfaction of and the full and
complete performance and indefeasible satisfaction of all the Liabilities (other
than contingent indemnification obligations), whereupon the Secured Party shall
forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but

<PAGE>

without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining
Collateral to or on the order of Debtor. The Secured Party shall also execute
and deliver to Debtor upon such termination such Uniform Commercial Code
termination statements, certificates for terminating the liens on the Motor
Vehicles (if any) and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested
by Debtor to effect the termination and release of the liens and security
interests in favor of the Secured Party affecting the Collateral.

     4.13 Further Assurances.

          (a) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the
     Secured Party or its Representative, and at the sole expense of Debtor,
     Debtor will promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further
     instruments, documents and agreements and take such further actions as the
     Secured Party or its Representative may reasonably require in order for the
     Secured Party to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the
     rights and powers herein granted in favor of the Secured Party, including,
     without limitation, using Debtor's best efforts to secure all consents and
     approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to the Secured Party
     of any Collateral held by Debtor or in which Debtor has any rights not
     heretofore assigned, the filing of any financing or continuation statements
     under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the liens and security
     interests granted hereby, transferring Collateral to the Secured Party's
     possession (if a security interest in such Collateral can be perfected by
     possession), placing the interest of the Secured Party as lienholder on the
     certificate of title of any Motor Vehicle and obtaining waivers of liens
     from landlords and mortgagees. Debtor also hereby authorizes the Secured
     Party and its Representative to file any such financing or continuation
     statement without the signature of Debtor to the extent permitted by
     applicable law.

          (b) Upon the request of the Secured Party, Debtor shall procure
     insurers' acknowledgements of any assignments of key man life insurance
     policies which may be assigned to the Secured Party as additional security
     for the Liabilities (if any) and will take all such further action as
     required by any insurer or the Secured Party in connection with any such
     assignment.

     4.14 Limitation on Duty of Secured Party. The powers conferred on the
Secured Party under this Agreement are solely to protect the Secured Party's
interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any
such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it
actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither the
Secured Party nor its Representative nor any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Debtor for any act or
failure to act, except for willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing,
the Secured Party and any Representative shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in their
possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to
that which the relevant Secured Party or any Representative, in its individual
capacity, accords its own property consisting of the type of Collateral
involved, it being understood and agreed that neither the Secured Party nor any
Representative shall have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps
(other than steps taken

<PAGE>

in accordance with the standard of care set forth above) to preserve rights
against any person with respect to any Collateral.

     Also without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Secured
Party nor any Representative shall have any obligation or liability under any
Contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the
granting to the Secured Party of a security interest therein or assignment
thereof or the receipt by the Secured Party or any Representative of any payment
relating to any Contract or license pursuant hereto, nor shall the Secured Party
or any Representative be required or obligated in any manner to perform or
fulfill any of the obligations of Debtor under or pursuant to any Contract or
license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the
sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance
by any party under any Contract or license, or to present or file any claim, or
to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any
amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any
time or times.

     Section 5. Miscellaneous. -

     5.1 No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Secured Party or any of its
Representatives to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no
delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Secured Party or
any of its Representatives of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
remedy. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be
exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and
remedies provided by law.

after 10 days notice, prepay all or any portion of this Note, by paying an
amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of this Note, or the portion of
this Note called for prepayment, together with interest accrued and unpaid
thereon to the date fixed for prepayment and all other amounts due under this,
without penalty or premium.

shall have been consummated, the outstanding principal balance of this Note,
together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall, at the election of the
Holder, be paid in full by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
account designated by the Holder, to the extent that the Holder shall not have
elected to convert this Note pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

     3. COLLATERAL. This Note is secured by a Security Agreement dated as of
even date herewith (the "Security Agreement") and is secured by the Collateral
under and as defined in the Security Agreement, to which reference is hereby
made for a fuller statement thereof. In addition to the foregoing, the Company,
Holder, and Verus International, Inc. have executed an Inter-creditor Agreement,
dated of even date herewith (the "Inter-creditor Agreement") which provides,
amongst others, that payments received in respect of the Collateral will be

because of the acceleration, and if the rescission would not conflict with any
judgment or decree. Any notice or rescission shall be given in the manner
specified in Section 12 hereof.

     5.  CONVERSION.

        5.1    CONVERSION PROCEDURE.

               (a) The Holder may elect at anytime by prior written notice to
               the Company (a "Conversion Notice") to have all or a portion of
               the unpaid principal amount of this Note, together with all
               accrued and unpaid interest thereon converted into a number of
               shares of the Conversion Stock (as hereinafter defined)
               determined by dividing the outstanding principal amount of this
               Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest, by the Conversion
               Price (as hereinafter defined) then in effect (the date of any
               such conversion, a "Conversion Date").

               (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the conversion
               of this Note shall be deemed to have been effected as of the
               close of business on the Conversion Date. At such time as such
               conversion has been effected, the rights of the Holder as a
               holder of this Note shall cease to the extent of the conversion
               hereof, and the "Person" or "Persons" (which shall include any
               natural person, firm, partnership, association, corporation,
               limited liability company or trust) in whose name or names any
               certificate or certificates for shares of Conversion Stock are to
               be issued upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the
               holder or holders of record of the shares of Conversion Stock
               represented thereby.

               (c) As soon as possible after a conversion has been effected (but
               in any event within five Business Days), the Company shall
               deliver to the converting Holder a certificate or certificates
               representing the number of shares of Conversion Stock issuable by
               reason of such conversion in such name or names and such
               denomination or denominations as the converting Holder has
               specified, and, if the Holder has elected to convert this Note in
               part, the payment due under Section 2.2 hereof; provided that
               this Note has been surrendered for conversion at the principal
               office of the Company; and provided further that if the Person in
               whose name such certificate is to be issued is a transferee of
               such Holder, the provisions of Section 9 shall apply to such
               transfer.

               (d) The issuance of certificates for shares of Conversion Stock
               upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the
               Holder hereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other
               cost incurred by the Company in connection with such conversion
               and the related issuance of shares of Conversion Stock. Upon
               conversion of this Note, the Company shall take all such actions
               as are necessary in order to insure that the Conversion Stock
               issuable with respect to such conversion shall be validly issued,
               fully paid and non assessable.

               (e) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of
               Conversion Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of this Note
               in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of this
               Note. The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Holder
               required to make any governmental filings or obtain any
               governmental approval prior to or in connection with the
               conversion of this Note (including, without limitation, making
               any filings required to be made by the Company).

<PAGE>

               (f) Except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing between the
               Holder and the Company, upon a conversion of this Note, this Note
               shall be converted into Conversion Stock.

          5.2  CONVERSION PRICE. The Conversion Price shall be (a) the lower of

               reported closing prices during the sixty (60) Trading Days prior
               to the date of the Conversion Notice, or (iii) for the average
               closing price report by the AMEX for the five trading days prior
               to the date of the Conversion Notice, or (b) if Holder opts for
               the Conversion Stock issued in connection with an Equity
               Financing, the price paid by investors in such Equity Financing.
               The conversion price will be subject to the same customary
               adjustments for changes in the capital structure, e.g. stock
               splits, stock dividend, etc. "Trading Day" means a day upon which
               AMEX is trading securities.

               the common stock of the Company or, at Holder's option, any
               equity securities of the type and series issued to the purchasers
               in an Equity Financing.

          5.4  EQUITY FINANCING. For purposes hereof, "Equity Financing" means
               the sale for cash to an entity unaffiliated with the Company of
               equity securities or other instruments convertible into or
               exchangeable or exercisable for equity securities of the Company,
               excluding the issuance of options to employees and issuances of
               securities upon exercise, conversion or exchange of currently
               outstanding securities. For the purposes of Section 5.4 hereof
               only, an Equity Financing must be for at least $250,000.

          5.5  REGISTRATION. The Company shall, within 120 days after the date
               of this Note and at all times thereafter, maintain not less than
               3,000,000 shares of registered but unissued common stock for the
               purpose of satisfying the Holder's conversion rights under this
               Section 5. In addition, the Company shall, within 120 days after
               the Conversion Date, register any other Conversion Stock.

     6. SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT.

          (a)  The Holder may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit
               in equity, action at law or by other appropriate proceeding,
               whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement

               Agreement, or may proceed to enforce the payment of this Note, or

               this Note.

          (b)  The Holder may direct the time, method and place of conducting
               any proceeding for any remedy available to it.

          (c)  In case of any Default under this Note, the Company will pay to
               the Holder such amount as shall be sufficient to cover the
               reasonable costs and expenses of such Holder due to such Default,
               including, without limitation, the reasonable costs of its
               counsel, whether or not suit is brought.

     7. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No remedy herein conferred upon the Holder is
intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every such remedy
shall be cumulative and shall be

at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Company and the Holder severally waive presentment for
payment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor.

     8. Remedies Not Waived. No course of dealing between the Company and the
Holder or any delay on the part of the Holder in exercising any rights hereunder

               purpose of registering this Note and any transfer thereof, which
               register shall reflect and identify, at all times, the ownership
               of any interest in this Note. Upon the issuance of this Note, the
               Company shall record the name of the initial purchaser of this
               Note in such register as the first Holder. Thereafter, the
               Company shall duly record in such register the name of any Person
               to whom this Note has been transferred in accordance with Section
               9 (a) above.

          (c)  The Holder shall have the right to transfer part or all of its

               applicable securities laws and provisions of the Intercreditor
               Agreement. Any such transfer shall be at the transferor's
               expense. Prior to any such transfer, the Holder shall notify the
               Company of its intention to effect such transfer and provide the
               Company, upon request, with documentation in form and substance
               satisfactory to the Company evidencing that such proposed
               transfer complies with this Section 9 (c). The Company will act
               in an expeditious manner to execute all transfer documents.

theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note (and in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Note), the Company, at its
expense, will promptly execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of like
tenor. If required by the Company, such Holder must provide indemnity sufficient
in the reasonable judgment of the Company to protect the Company from any loss
which they may suffer if a lost, stolen or destroyed Note is replaced.

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

          2.2. Exercise Procedure.

          (a) This Warrant will be deemed to have been exercised at such time as
the Company has received all of the following items (the "Exercise Date"):

               (i) a completed Exercise Agreement, as described below, executed
by the Person exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant (the "Purchaser");

               (ii) this Warrant;

               (iii) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the
Purchaser, an Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II
hereto, evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser; and

               (iv) a check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the
product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant
Stock being purchased upon such exercise.

          (b) Certificates for shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon exercise
of this Warrant will be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within ten
days after the Exercise Date. Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the
purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the Company will prepare
a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, representing the rights formerly
represented by this Warrant which have not expired or been exercised. The
Company will, within such ten day period, deliver such new Warrant to the Person
designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.

          (c) The Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant will
be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser on the Exercise Date, and the
Purchaser will be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of
such Warrant Stock on the Exercise Date.

          (d) The issuance of certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon
exercise of this Warrant will be made without charge to the Registered Holder or
the Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or any other cost incurred
by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of
shares of Warrant Stock; provided, however, that if the shares of Warrant Stock
are to be issued in a name other than that of the Registered Holder, then such
Warrant Stock shall be delivered only when the person requesting such delivery
has paid to the Company the amount of transfer taxes or charges required in
connection with such issuance, if any.

          (e) The Company will not close its books for the transfer of this
Warrant or of any share of Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this
Warrant. The Company will from time to time take all such action as may be
necessary to assure that the par value per share of the unissued Warrant Stock
acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times equal to or less than
the Exercise Price then in effect.

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

          2.3. Exercise Agreement. The Exercise Agreement will be substantially
in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto, except that if the shares of Warrant
Stock are not to be issued in the name of the Registered Holder of this Warrant,
the Exercise Agreement will also state the name of the Person to whom the
certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock are to be issued, and if the number
of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued does not include all the shares of
Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder, it will also state the name of the Person
to whom a new Warrant for the unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to
be delivered.

          2.4. Fractional Shares. If a fractional share of Warrant Stock would
be issuable upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company
will, within ten days after the Exercise Date, deliver to the Purchaser a check
payable to the Purchaser in lieu of such fractional share, in an amount equal to
the Current Market Price of such fractional share as of the close of business on
the Exercise Date.

     3. Exercise Price and Adjustment of Number of Shares.

          3.1. General.

               (a) The initial Exercise Price will be $.31 per share. The
Exercise Price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
will be subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to this Section 3.

               (b) Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger or Sale. In case the
Company shall effect a reorganization, reclassification of the outstanding
common stock, merger, exchange of shares, consolidation, sale, lease or other
disposition of the Company's assets, including a Sale Transaction (collectively,
a "Reorganization Transaction"), and, pursuant to the terms of such
Reorganization Transaction, shares of stock or other securities, property or
assets of the Company, successor or transferee or an affiliate thereof are to be
received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock, then each Registered
Holder shall be provided with written notice from the Company informing each
Registered Holder of the terms of such Reorganization Transaction, and of the
record date thereof for any distribution pursuant thereto, at least 20 days in
advance of such record date, and each Registered Holder shall have, in addition
to the rights provided for herein (or in the event the Common Stock is changed
into a different security or is extinguished, then in lieu of the right to
receive Common Stock upon exercise hereof), the right to receive, at the
holder's election, either (i) upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Holder,
the number of shares of stock or other securities, property or assets of the
Company, successor transferee or affiliate thereof or cash receivable upon or as
a result of such Reorganization Transaction, by a holder of the number of shares
of Common Stock for which such Registered Holder's Warrants are then exercisable
immediately prior to such event or (ii) the securities into which the Warrants
are converted into, upon, or as a result of, such Reorganization Transaction. In
the event of a Sale Transaction, as specified in Section 4 hereof, the exercise
of the Warrant must occur prior to the closing of the Sale Transaction, as the
Warrant is canceled upon the closing of such Sale Transaction. The provisions of
this paragraph (b) of this Subsection 3.1 shall similarly apply to successive
Reorganization Transactions discussed herein, but not to successive Sale
Transactions as the Warrant is cancelled upon the closing of the first such Sale
Transaction pursuant to Section 4. Exercise of the Warrant, in the case of a
Sale Transaction, may, at the option of the Registered Holder, be made
contingent upon the closing thereof.

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

               (c) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company
declares a dividend or other distribution payable to its holders of Common Stock
in shares of Common Stock or subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a larger number or combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
dividend, subdivision or combination, as the case may be, shall be
proportionately and appropriately increased or decreased.

               (d) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be
adjusted as provided in this Subsection 3.1, the Company shall forthwith file,
at the office of the transfer agent for the Warrants, at the principal office of
the Company or at such other place as may be designated by the Company, a
statement, certified by the chief financial officer of the Company, showing in
detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be
in effect after such adjustment. The Company shall also cause a copy of such
statement to be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid to each Registered
Holder at such Holder's address as shown in the records of the Company.

          3.2. Adjustment to Number of Shares of Common Stock Issuable upon
Exercise. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3.1(c)
hereof, the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be such number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the
nearest 1/100th of a share) issuable at the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the
denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately after
such adjustment.

     4. Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the earlier
of: (a) the expiration of the Exercise Period; or (b) the closing of a Sale
Transaction.

     5. Registration Rights; Reservation of Common Stock. The Company will at
all times reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of Warrants
such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants, and upon
such issuance such shares of Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. In addition to the foregoing, the Company shall, within 120 days
after the Date of Issuance and at all times thereafter, maintain not less than
400,000 shares of registered but unissued common stock for the purpose of
satisfying the Holder's rights under this Section 5. In addition, the Company
shall, within 120 days after the Exercise Date, register any other Warrant
Stock.

     6.

     7. No Voting Rights; Limitations of Liability. This Warrant will not
entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder
of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative
action by the Registered Holder to purchase Warrant Stock, and no enumeration in
this Warrant of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder, will give
rise to any liability of such Holder for the Exercise Price of Warrant Stock
acquirable by exercise hereof or as a stockholder of the Company.

                                       -5-

     8. Warrant Transferable.

          8.1. Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in paragraph (b),
below, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in
part, without charge to the Registered Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant
with a properly executed Assignment (in the form of Exhibit II hereto) at the
principal office of the Company, provided that any transfer tax relating to such
transaction shall be paid by the holder requesting the same.

          8.2. Each Registered Holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this
Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"),
and agrees not to sell, pledge, distribute, offer for sale, transfer or
otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Stock issued upon its exercise
in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement as to this Warrant or
such Warrant Stock under the Act (or any similar statute then in effect), or
(ii) an opinion of counsel for the Company to the effect that such registration
is not, under the circumstances, required. The certificate(s) representing the
Warrant Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant will bear a legend similar to
the legend on the first page of this Warrant.

          9. Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Warrant is
exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Registered Holder at the
principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like tenor representing in
the aggregate the purchase rights hereunder, and each of such new Warrants will
represent such portion of such rights as is designated by the Registered Holder
at the time of such surrender, provided that any transfer tax relating to such
transaction shall be paid by the holder requesting the same. The date the
Company initially issues this Warrant, as set forth on the face thereof, will be
deemed to be the "Date of Issuance" of this Warrant regardless of the number of
times new certificates representing the unexpired and unexercised rights
formerly represented by this Warrant are issued.

          10. Notice of Certain Actions.

               In case at any time:

               (a) the Company shall declare any discretionary dividend or other
distribution upon its common stock payable in securities;

               (b) there shall be any capital reorganization, or
reclassification, of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or
merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all its assets or
stock to, another corporation;

               (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company; or

               (d) the Company shall enter into an agreement or adopt a plan for
the purpose of effecting a consolidation, merger, or sale of all or
substantially all of its assets or stock, other than a merger where the Company
is the surviving corporation and the terms of the Company's capital stock remain
unchanged; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give
written notice that 20 days prior to such event, except in the case of an
involuntary dissolution, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered
owner of this Warrant, of the date on which (a) the books of the Company shall
close or a record shall be taken for such dividend,

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

distribution or subscription rights, or (b) such reorganization, registration
statement filing, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up shall take place, as the case may be. Such notice
shall also specify the date as of which the owners of any class of capital stock
of record shall participate in such dividend, distribution or subscription
rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or
other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up, as the
case may be.

     11. Representations of Registered Holder. The Registered Holder

or general advertising regarding the exercise of the Warrant.

          11.2. The Registered Holder has sufficient knowledge and experience in

Company involves significant risk. The Registered Holder does not require the

conditions of the Warrant and the transactions contemplated hereby, as well as
the affairs of the Company and related matters. The Registered Holder confirms
that he does not desire to receive any further information.

          11.5. The Registered Holder understands that the exercise price of the
Warrant being purchased hereby has been arbitrarily determined and does not
necessarily bear any relationship to investment criteria such as projected
earnings, discounted cash flow, book value or other measures of value.

          11.6. The Registered Holder understands that the Warrant has not been
filed with or reviewed by the Commission nor the securities department of any
state because of the private or limited nature of this offering as defined by
applicable laws, and that the Warrant and the Warrant Stock have not been
registered with the Commission under the Act nor with the securities department
of any state in reliance upon an exemption therefrom for non-public offerings.

                                      -7-

<PAGE>

          11.7. The Registered Holder is a bona fide resident of the state set

residence in such state.

          11.8. The Registered Holder represents and warrants that the Warrant
and the Warrant Stock is or will be acquired for investment purposes and not
with a view to or for sale or distribution. The Registered Holder represents
that there is no contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person
to sell, transfer or pledge to such person or anyone else the Warrant and the
Warrant Stock or any part thereof, and the Registered Holder has no present
plans to enter into such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement and
will neither directly or indirectly seek to assign, transfer or sell the same in
any way inconsistent with the legend which is being placed on the Warrant.

     12. Miscellaneous.

          12.1. Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of the Warrants may be
amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to
perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only with the affirmative
consent or approval of the Company and of the Registered Holder.

          12.2. Notices. Any notices required to be sent to the Registered
Holder will be delivered to the address of such Registered Holder shown on the
books of the Company. All notices referred to herein will be delivered in person
or sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, and will be deemed to have been
given when so delivered or sent.

          12.3. Descriptive Headings: Governing Law. The descriptive headings of
the paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a part of this Warrant. The construction, validity and interpretation
of this Warrant will be governed by the laws of the State of New York without
giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. Any dispute arising
hereunder shall be adjudicated exclusively in the Federal and State courts
located in New York County, New York, and the Company and the holder of this
Warrant waives any claims of inconvenient forum in connection therewith.

     form); (ii) such Investment Property consists of uncertificated securities
     and either (x) a Debtor delivers such uncertificated securities to the

     comply with instructions originated by the Secured Party without further
     consent by Debtor, and (iii) such Investment Property consists of security

     first page of the Chattel Paper and on each page upon which

                                                                               8

     change in Debtor's name, identity or corporate structure, or the proposed
     use by Debtor of any tradename or fictitious business name other than any
     such name set forth on Schedule II attached hereto.

          (b) Except for the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of
     business and except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, Debtor
     will keep the Collateral at the locations specified in Schedule I
     applicable to Debtor. Debtor will give Secured Party thirty (30) day's
     prior written notice of any change in Debtor's chief place of business,
     state of organization or of any new location for any of the Collateral.

          (c) If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of
     any warehousemen, bailee, consignee or processor, Debtor shall, upon the
     request of Secured Party or its Representative, notify such warehousemen,
     bailee, consignee or processor of the lien and security interest created
     hereby and shall instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for
     Secured Party's account subject to Secured Party's instructions.

     4.5 Deposit Accounts.

          (a) At Secured Party's request, on or prior to the Closing Date, or at
     any time thereafter, the Secured Party and Debtor shall enter into a bank
     agency agreement ("Bank Agency Agreement"), in a form specified by the
     Secured Party, with each financial institution

                                                                               9
<PAGE>

     with which Debtor maintains from time to time any Deposit Accounts (general
     or special), which financial institutions are set forth on Schedule VI
     attached hereto. Pursuant to the Bank Agency Agreements and pursuant
     hereto, Debtor grants and shall grant to the Secured Party a continuing
     lien upon, and security interest in, all such Deposit Accounts and all
     funds at any time paid, deposited, credited or held in such accounts
     (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) or otherwise in the
     possession of such financial institutions, and each such financial
     institution shall act as the Secured Party's agent in connection therewith.
     Following the Closing Date, no Debtor shall establish any Deposit Account
     with any financial institution unless prior thereto, at the request of
     Secured Party, the Secured Party and Debtor shall have entered into a Bank
     Agency Agreement with such financial institution.

          (b) Upon the Secured Party's request, Debtor shall establish lock-box
     or blocked accounts (collectively, "Blocked Accounts") in Debtor's name
     with such banks as are acceptable to the Secured Party ("Collecting
     Banks"), subject to irrevocable instructions in a form specified by the
     Secured Party, to which the obligors of all Accounts and payment
     intangibles shall directly remit all payments on Accounts and payment
     intangibles and in which Debtor will immediately deposit all cash payments
     for Inventory or other cash payments constituting proceeds of Collateral in
     the identical form in which such payment was made, whether by cash or
     check. In addition, the Secured Party may establish one or more depository
     accounts at each Collecting Bank or at a centrally located bank
     (collectively, the "Depository Account"). From and after receipt by any
     Collecting Bank of written notice from the Secured Party to such Collecting
     Bank that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all amounts
     held or deposited in the Blocked Accounts held by such Collecting Bank
     shall be transferred to the Depository Account. Subject to the foregoing,
     Debtor hereby agrees that all payments received by the Secured Party
     whether by cash, check, wire transfer or any other instrument, made to such
     Blocked Accounts or otherwise received by the Secured Party and whether in
     respect of the Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral or otherwise
     will be the sole and exclusive property of the Secured Party for the
     benefit of the Secured Party. Debtor, and any of its affiliates, employees,
     agents and other Persons acting for or in concert with Debtor shall, acting
     as trustee for the Secured Party, receive, as the sole and exclusive
     property of the Secured Party, any moneys, checks, notes, drafts or other
     payments relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts, Payment Intangibles or
     other Collateral which come into the possession or under the control of
     Debtor or any affiliates, employees, agent or other Persons acting for or
     in concert with Debtor, and immediately upon receipt thereof, Debtor or
     Persons shall deposit the same or cause the same to be deposited in kind,
     in a Blocked Account.

     4.6 Events of Default, Etc. During the period during which an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

          (a) Debtor shall, at the request of the Secured Party or its
     Representative, assemble the Collateral at such place or places as may be
     reasonably designated by the Secured Party or its Representative;

                                                                              10

<PAGE>

          (b) the Secured Party or its Representative may make any reasonable
     compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the
     Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in
     installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral;

          (c) the Secured Party shall have all of the rights and remedies with
     respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial
     Code (whether or not said Uniform Commercial Code is in effect in the
     jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such
     additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under
     the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies
     hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the
     maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and
     other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Secured
     Party were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and Debtor agrees to take
     all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

          (d) the Secured Party or its Representative in their discretion may,
     in the name of the Secured Party or in the name of Debtor or otherwise,
     demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time
     payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the
     Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so;

          (e) the Secured Party or its Representative may take immediate
     possession and occupancy of any premises owned, used or leased by Debtor
     and exercise all other rights and remedies of an assignee which may be
     available to the Secured Party; and

          (f) the Secured Party may, upon ten (10) Business Days' prior written
     notice to Debtor of the time and place (which notice Debtor hereby agrees
     is commercially reasonable notification for purposes hereof), with respect
     to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall
     thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Secured
     Party or its Representative, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of
     all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Secured
     Party deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery
     (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale,
     without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such
     disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is
     required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the
     Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or
     recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale
     (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter
     hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind,
     including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of
     Debtor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly
     waived and released. The Secured Party may, without notice or publication,
     adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from
     time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and
     such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so
     adjourned.

The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section
4.6 shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.9 hereof.

                                                                              11

<PAGE>

     4.7 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of
or upon the Collateral are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such
realization and the payment in full of the Liabilities, Debtor shall remain
liable for any deficiency.

     4.8 Private Sale. Debtor recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to
effect a public sale of any or all of the Collateral consisting of securities by
reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act"), and applicable state securities laws, but may be compelled
to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of
purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such
Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that any such
private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller
than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances,
agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a
commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall be under no obligation
to delay a sale of any of the Collateral to permit Debtor to register such
Collateral for public sale under the Act, or under applicable state securities
laws, even if Debtor would agree to do so. The Secured Party shall not incur any
liability as a result of the sale of any such Collateral, or any part thereof,
at any private sale provided for in this Agreement conducted in a commercially
reasonable manner, and Debtor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party
arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have
been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been
obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the
Liabilities, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does
not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

     Debtor further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and
things as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any portion or all of
any such Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all
applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of
any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or
foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at Debtor's
expense, provided that Debtor shall be under no obligation to take any action to
enable any or all of such Collateral to be registered under the provisions of
the Act. Debtor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained
in this Section 4.8 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the
Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in this Section 4.8
shall be specifically enforceable against Debtor, and Debtor hereby waives and
agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of
such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.

     4.9 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any collection, sale or other
realization of all or any part of the Collateral, and any other cash at the time
held by the Secured Party under this Agreement, shall be applied:

          first, to payment of all expenses payable or reimbursable under this
     Agreement or the Note;

          second, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Liabilities;

                                                                              12

<PAGE>

          third, to payment of principal of the Liabilities;

          fourth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting
     Liabilities; and

          last, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to Debtor.

     4.10 Attorney-in-Fact. Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
the Secured Party, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and
stead of Debtor and in the name of Debtor or in its own name, from time to time
in the discretion of the Secured Party, for the purpose of carrying out the
terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute
and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or
desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right,
on behalf of Debtor, without notice to or assent by Debtor, to do the following
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default:

          (a) to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittance and receipts
     for any and all moneys due and to become due under any Collateral and, in
     the name of Debtor or its own name or otherwise, to take possession of and
     endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other
     Instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Collateral and to file
     any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or
     equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured Party for the purpose
     of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever
     payable and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in
     any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured
     Party for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any
     Collateral whenever payable;

          (b) to pay or discharge charges or liens levied or placed on or
     threatened against the Collateral other than the Permitted Liens, to effect
     any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and to pay all or
     any part of the premiums therefor;

          (c) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the
     Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due, and to become due
     thereunder, directly to the Secured Party or as the Secured Party shall
     direct, and to receive payment of and receipt for any and all moneys,
     claims and other amounts due, and to become due at any time, in respect of
     or arising out of any Collateral;

          (d) to sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills
     of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors,
     assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts and
     other Documents constituting or relating to the Collateral;

          (e) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law
     or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the
     Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of
     any Collateral;

                                                                              13

<PAGE>

          (f) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Debtor
     with respect to any Collateral;

          (g) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding
     described above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or
     releases as the Secured Party may deem appropriate; and

          (h) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with
     respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and
     completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owners thereof for
     all purposes, and to do, at the Secured Party's option and at Debtor's
     expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the
     Secured Party reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize
     upon the Collateral and the Secured Party's lien therein, in order to
     effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Debtor
     might do.

     Debtor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that such
attorneys lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of
attorney granted hereunder is a power coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable until the Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full.

     Debtor also authorizes the Secured Party, at any time from and after the
occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, (x) to
communicate in its own name with any party to any Contract with regard to the
assignment of the right, title and interest of Debtor in and under the Contracts
hereunder and other matters relating thereto and (y) to execute, in connection
with any sale of Collateral provided for in Section 4.5 hereof, any
endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with
respect to the Collateral.

     4.11 Perfection. Prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, Debtor shall:

          (a) file such financing statements, assignments for security and other
     documents in such offices as may be necessary or as the Secured Party or
     the Representative may request to perfect the security interests granted by
     Section 3 of this Agreement;

          (b) at Secured Party's request, deliver to the Secured Party or its
     Representative the originals of all Instruments together with, in the case
     of Instruments constituting promissory notes, allonges attached thereto
     showing such promissory notes to be payable to the order of a blank payee;
     and

          (c) at Secured Party's request, deliver to the Secured Party or its
     Representative the originals of all Motor Vehicle titles, duly endorsed
     indicating the Secured Party's interest therein as lienholder.

     Debtor hereby authorizes Secured Party to file a financing statement
describing the Collateral

                                                                              14

<PAGE>

     4.12 Termination. This Agreement and the liens and security interests
granted hereunder shall not terminate until satisfaction of and the full and
complete performance and indefeasible satisfaction of all the Liabilities (other
than contingent indemnification obligations), whereupon the Secured Party shall
forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but
without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining
Collateral to or on the order of Debtor. The Secured Party shall also execute
and deliver to Debtor upon such termination such Uniform Commercial Code
termination statements, certificates for terminating the liens on the Motor
Vehicles (if any) and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested
by Debtor to effect the termination and release of the liens and security
interests in favor of the Secured Party affecting the Collateral.

     4.13 Further Assurances.

          (a) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the
     Secured Party or its Representative, and at the sole expense of Debtor,
     Debtor will promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further
     instruments, documents and agreements and take such further actions as the
     Secured Party or its Representative may reasonably require in order for the
     Secured Party to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the
     rights and powers herein granted in favor of the Secured Party, including,
     without limitation, using Debtor's best efforts to secure all consents and
     approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to the Secured Party
     of any Collateral held by Debtor or in which Debtor has any rights not
     heretofore assigned, the filing of any financing or continuation statements
     under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the liens and security
     interests granted hereby, transferring Collateral to the Secured Party's
     possession (if a security interest in such Collateral can be perfected by
     possession), placing the interest of the Secured Party as lienholder on the
     certificate of title of any Motor Vehicle and obtaining waivers of liens
     from landlords and mortgagees. Debtor also hereby authorizes the Secured
     Party and its Representative to file any such financing or continuation
     statement without the signature of Debtor to the extent permitted by
     applicable law.

          (b) Upon the request of the Secured Party, Debtor shall procure
     insurers' acknowledgements of any assignments of key man life insurance
     policies which may be assigned to the Secured Party as additional security
     for the Liabilities (if any) and will take all such further action as
     required by any insurer or the Secured Party in connection with any such
     assignment.

         4.14 Limitation on Duty of Secured Party. The powers conferred on the
Secured Party under this Agreement are solely to protect the Secured Party's
interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any
such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it
actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither the
Secured Party nor its Representative nor any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Debtor for any act or
failure to act, except for willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing,
the Secured Party and any Representative shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in their
possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to
that which the relevant Secured Party or any

                                                                              15
<PAGE>

Representative, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting
of the type of Collateral involved, it being understood and agreed that neither
the Secured Party nor any Representative shall have any responsibility for
taking any necessary steps (other than steps taken in accordance with the
standard of care set forth above) to preserve rights against any person with
respect to any Collateral.

     Also without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Secured
Party nor any Representative shall have any obligation or liability under any
Contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the
granting to the Secured Party of a security interest therein or assignment
thereof or the receipt by the Secured Party or any Representative of any payment
relating to any Contract or license pursuant hereto, nor shall the Secured Party
or any Representative be required or obligated in any manner to perform or
fulfill any of the obligations of Debtor under or pursuant to any Contract or
license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the
sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance
by any party under any Contract or license, or to present or file any claim, or
to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any
amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any
time or times.

     Section 5. Miscellaneous.

     5.1 No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Secured Party or any of its
Representatives to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no
delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Secured Party or
any of its Representatives of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
remedy. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be
exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and
remedies provided by law.
