account under the control of a secured party pursuant to the Code. The parties

following order and priority:

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (i)  First,
to pay all residuals due and owing to Screen Actors Guild (SAG),
Directors Guild of America (DGA) and Writers Guild of America
(WGA);

     

    (ii)   Second,
to pay NL fifty percent (50%) of its Distribution Fee under the NL
Distribution Agreement (i.e., ten percent (10%) of Gross Receipts as defined
therein), with the
balance to be deferred until complete repayment and satisfaction of all
Obligations, including
all principal, accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Secured
Note, and all
obligations under the secured notes evidencing the Other Loans to Grantor by the
other Members
of the Intercreditor Group;

     

    (iii)  Third,

NL Distribution Agreement.

     

    (vi)   Sixth,
to pay NL its royalty of 8% of Gross Receipts in respect of NL's

NL used in connection
with the Film.

     

    (vii)  The
balance of the Funds will be paid to Grantor, NL, the Secured Party
and/or the Other Members of the Intercreditor Group in accordance with the
respective participation
agreements among the parties, which provide for participations to each Member of
the
Intercreditor Group on a pro rata, pari passu basis.

     

    (b) If, but
only if, NL fails to deliver a fully executed Notice of Assignment as required
pursuant to Section 3(a) above (i) with respect to an Existing Distribution
Agreement, within ninety (90) days following the date of this Agreement, or (ii)
with respect to an Additional Distribution Agreement, within ninety (90) days
following the date of such Additional Distribution Agreement, then NL hereby
guarantees to the Secured Party that the full amount of the minimum guarantee
under such Existing Distribution Agreement or Additional Distribution Agreement,
as the case may be, will be deposited into the Collection Account, and NL shall
make each such deposit (or any deficit therein) if and to the extent not made by
the respective Payor on or before the Maturity Date of the Secured Promissory
Note. Any such guaranty by NL with respect to an Existing Distribution Agreement
or an Additional Distribution Agreement shall expire if and when NL delivers the
Notice of Assignment with respect thereto, provided that such Notice of
Assignment is delivered to the Secured Party before the Maturity Date of the
Secured Promissory Note.

     

    (c) As a
further inducement to the Secured Party to make the Loan evidenced by the
Secured Promissory Note, upon receipt of the proceeds of the Loan, NL hereby
agrees to irrevocably assign, transfer and convey to Secured Party a Eleven and
One-Half percent (11.5%) net profit participation in the Film, which NL shall
pay in cash, in accordance with the terms and conditions of that certain Profit
Participation Agreement of even date herewith.

    4.  Secured Party's Rights,
Limitations on Secured Party's Obligations.

     

    (a) It is
expressly agreed by Grantor and NL that, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, Grantor and NL shall remain liable under each of their
Contracts and each of their Licenses to observe and perform all the conditions
and obligations to be observed and performed by them thereunder. Secured Party
shall not have any obligation or liability under any Contract or License by
reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the granting herein of a
Lien thereon or the receipt by Secured Party of any payment relating to any
Contract or License pursuant hereto. Secured Party shall not be required or
obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of Grantor
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 claims, 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.

     

    (b) Secured
Party may at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
without prior notice to Grantor, notify Account Debtors and other Persons
obligated on the Collateral that Secured Party has a security interest therein,
and that payments shall be made directly to Secured Party. Thereafter, upon the
request of Secured Party, Grantor and NL shall so notify Account Debtors and
other Persons obligated on Collateral. Once any such notice has been given to
any Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, Grantor and NL
shall not give any contrary instructions to such Account Debtor or other Person
without Secured Party's prior written consent.

     

    (c) Secured
Party may at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
in Secured Party's own name, in the name of a nominee of Secured Party or in the
name of Grantor communicate (by mail, telephone, facsimile or otherwise) with
Account Debtors, parties to Contracts and obligors in respect of Instruments to
verify with such Persons, to Secured Party's satisfaction, the existence,
amount, terms of, and any other matter relating to, the Film, the Literary
Property, the Physical Properties, any Product, Accounts, General Intangibles
(including all Products, Contracts, Intellectual Property, and payment
intangibles), Instruments or Chattel Paper included in the
Collateral.

     

    5. 
Representations and
Warranties. In order to induce the Secured Party to make the Loan,
each of Grantor and NL jointly and severally represents and warrants to the
Secured Party that that
the following statements are true and correct and shall continue to be true and
correct until all
Obligations to the Secured Party shall have been fully performed and
satisfied:

     

    (a)
Grantor and NL each have rights in and the power to transfer each item of the
Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder free and clear of
any and all Liens other than the Permitted Additional Lien (as defined in
Section 5.(b) below) and Permitted Encumbrances arising in the ordinary course
of making the Film.

    (b) This
Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing Lien on and,
upon the filing of the appropriate financing statements listed on Schedule I
hereto, a perfected Lien in favor of Secured Party on the Collateral with
respect to which a Lien may be perfected by filing pursuant to the Code. Such
Lien is prior to all other Liens, except the perfected, continuing Liens of the
other Members of the Intercreditor Group in the Collateral to secure the Other
Loans, which are pari passu with the security interest of Secured Party (the
"Permitted Additional Liens"), and Permitted Encumbrances arising in the
ordinary course of making the Film that would be prior to Liens in favor of
Secured Party as a matter of law, and upon recordation the Lien will be
enforceable in favor of Secured Party as such as against any and all creditors
of and purchasers from Grantor or NL. All action by Grantor and NL necessary or
desirable to protect and perfect such Lien on each item of the Collateral has
been, or shall promptly be, duly taken.

     

    (c) Schedule
II hereto lists all Instruments, Letter-of-Credit Rights and Chattel Paper of
Grantor. All action by Grantor necessary or desirable to protect and perfect the
Lien of Secured Party on each item set forth on Schedule II
(including the delivery of all originals thereof to Secured Party and the
legending of all Chattel Paper as required by Section 5(b)
hereof) has been duly taken. The Lien of Secured Party on the Collateral
listed on Schedule II
hereto is prior to all other Liens, except the Permitted Additional Liens
and Permitted Encumbrances arising in the ordinary course of making the Film
that would be prior to the Liens in favor of Secured Party as a matter of law,
and such Lien is enforceable in favor of Secured Party as such against any and
all creditors of and purchasers from Grantor or NL.

     

    (d) Grantor's
name as it appears in official filings in the state(s) of its incorporation, the
type of entity of Grantor, organizational identification numbers issued by
Grantor's state of incorporation or statement(s) that no such number has been

premises where Collateral is stored or located, and the locations of its books
and records concerning the Collateral are set forth on Schedule III
hereto.

     

    (e) With
respect to any Inventory of Grantor, (i) no Inventory is now, or shall at any
time or times hereafter be stored at any location other than as set forth on
Schedule III hereto without Secured Party's prior consent, and if Secured Party
gives such consent, Grantor will concurrently therewith obtain bailee, landlord
or mortgagee agreements, in each case, satisfactory to Secured Party in its sole
discretion, (ii) Grantor has good, indefeasible and merchantable title to such
Inventory and such Inventory is not subject to any Lien or security interest or
document whatsoever except for the Lien granted to Secured Party and except for
the Permitted Additional Lien and Permitted Encumbrances, (iii) such Inventory
is not subject to any licensing, patent, royalty, trademark, trade name or
copyright agreements with any third parties which would require any consent of
any^third party upon sale or disposition of that Inventory or the payment of any
monies to any third party as a precondition of such sale or other disposition,
and (iv) the completion of manufacture, sale or other disposition of such
Inventory by Secured Party following an Event of Default shall not require the
consent of any Person and shall not constitute a breach or default under any
contract or agreement to which Grantor is a party or to which such property is
subject.

filing of a UCC financing statement and the Notice of Security Interest in
Patents and Trademarks and the Notice of Security Interest in Copyrights with
the United State Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright
Office, as applicable, the Liens granted hereunder with respect to the Grantor's
interest in its Intellectual Property are enforceable as such as against any and
all creditors of and purchasers from Grantor or NL.

     

    (g) Each of
Grantor and NL (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of California; (ii) is duly qualified to
conduct business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where its

such Person or any of its property is bound; (vi) do not result in the creation

governmental instrumentality or other agency or any investigation of the affairs
of Grantor or NL (or any Affiliate thereof) or any of their managers, members,

conducted or which might materially or adversely affect the financial condition
of Grantor or NL. Neither Grantor, NL nor the Collateral have been affected by
any fire, explosion, accident, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, drought,

knowledge, any and all materialor matter used in or in connection with the Film,
including dialogue, characters, titles, episodes and events, shall be original
with or owned by or licensed to Grantor, or in the public domain, and will not
infringe any copyrights, trademarks or statutory or common law rights of any
Person, or, to the best of Grantor's and NL's knowledge, constitute a libel,
slander or invasion of privacy of any party, or otherwise infringe on or violate
the rights or any other party whomsoever.

    (vii)  Grantor
and NL hereby irrevocably authorize the Secured Party at any time
and from time to time to file in any filing office in any Uniform Commercial
Code jurisdiction
any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the
Collateral
(i) as all assets of Grantor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether

investing in any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, or any Subsidiary in which any
Affiliate owns any Equity Security, cause such Subsidiary to grant to Secured
Party a first priority lien in all assets of such Subsidiary pursuant to a
security agreement in substantially the same form as this Agreement. Grantor
shall be under no obligation to cause any such Subsidiary to grant any lien in
its assets so long as the sole owners of Equity Securities of such Subsidiary
consist of Grantor and Persons who are not Affiliates; provided, however, that
if an Affiliate after the formation of any such Subsidiary becomes an owner of
any Equity Security in such Subsidiary, then Grantor shall as soon as

"This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the
security interest of VS Investment B, LLC, as Secured Party."

     

    (c) Covenants Regarding Patent,
Trademark and Copyright Collateral.

     

    (i)  Grantor and NL shall provide
reasonable notice to Secured Party of any material change to any application or
registration relating to any Copyright (now or hereafter existing), including
information that such application or registration is or may become abandoned,

court) regarding Grantor's ownership of any Copyright, right to register the
same, or to keep and exclusively maintain the same.

     

    (ii)  In no event shall Grantor, either
directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an
application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or
any similar office or agency without giving Secured Party prior written notice
thereof, and, upon request of Secured Party, Grantor shall execute and deliver
any and all applicable Notices of Security Interests in Patents and Trademarks
and Notices of Security Interests in Copyrights as Secured Party may request to

    (iii)  Grantor
and NL shall take all actions necessary or requested by Secured
Party to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant
registration and to maintain
the registration of Copyrights (now or hereafter existing), including the filing
of applications
for renewal, unless Grantor reasonably shall determine that such Copyright is
not material
to the conduct of its business.

     

    (iv)  In
the event that any of the Copyright Collateral is infringed upon, or
misappropriated or diluted by a third party, Grantor shall comply with Section 6(a)(viii) of
this Security
Agreement. Grantor shall, unless it shall reasonably determine that such
Copyright Collateral
is not material to the conduct of its business or operations, promptly sue for
infringement,
misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such
infringement,
misappropriation or dilution, and shall take such other actions as Secured Party
shall
deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Patent, Trademark or
Copyright Collateral.

     

    (d) mdernnification. In
any suit, proceeding or action brought by Secured Party relating to any
Collateral for any sum owing with respect thereto or to enforce any rights or
claims with respect thereto, Grantor and NL will save, indemnify and keep
Secured Party harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses), loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense,
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the
Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, arising out of a
breach by Grantor or NL of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other
agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to, or in favor of, such
obligor or successors from Grantor or NL, except in the case of Secured Party,
to the extent such expense, loss, or damage is attributable solely to the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Secured Party as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction. All such obligations of Grantor shall be and
remain enforceable against and only against Grantor and shall not be enforceable
against Secured Party. In addition, Grantor shall at all times defend and
indemnify and hold Secured Party and its Affiliates, members, managers,
officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, successors and assigns
free and harmless from and against any and all liabilities, claims, demands,
causes of action, losses, damages, settlements, judgments or recoveries
resulting from any breach of any of the warranties, representations, agreements
or covenants made by Grantor in this Security Agreement, and from any suit or
proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever against Secured Party arising from
or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement, the
Secured Promissory Note or any of the documents, instruments or agreements to be
executed pursuant hereto or any of the rights and properties assigned to Secured
Party hereunder, including reasonable outside attorneys' fees and costs and
expenses incurred by Secured Party, all of which shall be charged to and paid by
Grantor and shall be secured by the Collateral hereunder; provided, however, that Grantor
shall not have any obligation under the foregoing sentence with respect to any
such event resulting from an indemnified party's breach of this Security
Agreement, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     

    (e) Compliance with Terms of
Accounts, Related Agreements, etc. In all material respects, Grantor and
NL will perform, observe and comply with, and cause their employees and agents
to perform, observe and comply with, all obligations, covenants, representations
and warranties of Grantor or NL under any of the Related Agreements or in
respect of the Film or the Collateral and all other agreements to which either
is a party or by which either is bound relating to the Film or the
Collateral.

    (f) Limitation on Liens on
Collateral. Grantor and NL will not create, permit or suffer to exist,
and will defend the Collateral against, and take such other action as is
necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except the Permitted Additional
Liens and Permitted Encumbrances arising in the ordinary course of making the
Film that would be prior to the Liens in favor of Secured Party as a matter of
law, and will defend the right, title and interest of Secured Party in and to
any of Grantor's or NL's rights under the Collateral against the claims and
demands of all Persons whomsoever.

     

    (g) Limitations on
Disposition. Grantor and NL will not sell, lease, license, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral (including without limitation any

trade-ins or other dispositions of Equipment that is substantially worn,
damaged, or obsolete in the ordinary course of business, (ii) sales of Inventory
to buyers in the ordinary course of business, and (iii) licenses by Grantor or
NL of Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights, and other intellectual property rights in
the ordinary course of business, and not in a transaction or as part of a series
of related transactions whereby substantially all of the Grantor's assets are
transferred to one or more Persons, to (x) a Person that is not an Affiliate or
(y) if such transaction has been approved in advance by Grantor's respective
board of directors, a Person that is a Subsidiary; provided, that a license
shall be deemed to be not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of
this subsection if it is an exclusive license, unless either (I) such license
has been approved in advance by Grantor's board of directors, or (II) such
license relates only to a single product. The rights of the transferee or
licensee with respect to any transfer or license as authorized in this
subsection will be free and clear of the security interest of Secured Party
hereunder; provided, however, that such security interest shall in the event of
any such transfer or license continue to attach to all rights of Grantor or NL,
as the case may be, pursuant to such transfer or license and the proceeds of
such transfer or license as provided elsewhere herein.

    

    (h)  Further Identification of
Collateral. Grantor and NL will, if so requested by
Secured Party, furnish to Secured Party, as often as Secured Party reasonably
requests (but not more

describing the Collateral
and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as Secured Party may
reasonably
request, all in such detail as Secured Party may specify.

     

    (i)  Notices. Grantor and
NL will advise Secured Party promptly, in reasonable
detail, (i) of any Lien (other than the Additional Permitted Lien and Permitted
Encumbrances)
or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral, and (ii) of the
occurrence of any
other event which would have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of
the Collateral
or on the Liens created hereunder.

     

    (j) No Reincorporation; No
Non-Ordinary Course Transactions. Grantor shall not reincorporate or
reorganize under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in
which it was incorporated as of the date hereof without the prior written
consent of Secured Party.
Grantor shall not consummate or commit to consummate any non-ordinary course
transaction.

    (k) Terminations; Amendments Not
Authorized. Other than the filing of financing statements in connection
with the perfection of the Permitted Additional Liens, Grantor and NL
acknowledge that they are not authorized to file any financing statement or
amendment or tenmnation statement with respect to any financing statement with
respect to any of the Collateral without the prior written consent of Secured
Party and agree not do so without the prior written consent of Secured Party,
subject to such Grantor's rights under Section 9-509fdY2) of
the Code.

expense, such other information relating to the affairs of Grantor as Secured
Party reasonably may request from time to time. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, Grantor shall, if reasonably requested by Secured Party, at
any time, but no more frequently than on a weekly basis, when any Obligation
remains unpaid or not performed hereunder, supply Secured Party promptly with,
or cause Secured Party to be promptly supplied with monthly sales reports,
setting forth the status of all presales entered into with respect to the Film.
In addition Grantor and NL shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Secured
Party such information relating to the distribution and licensing of the Film,
business, properties, condition, operations and affairs of Grantor or, as the
same may relate to the Film or any of the Collateral, NL, financial or
otherwise, as Secured Party may reasonably request from time to
time.

     

    (m) Compliance. Grantor
shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations relating to, and shall pay
prior to delinquency all license fees, registration fees, taxes, guild or union
pension, health and welfare payments, supplemental market, reuse and other
required payments and assessments, and all other charges, including without
limitation non-governmental levies or assessments, which may be levied upon or
assessed against, or which may become security interests, liens or other
encumbrances on, the ownership, operation, possession, maintenance,
exploitation, exhibition or use of, the Collateral, or which create or may
create a lien upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, Grantor shall pay prior
to delinquency all required guild or union residual payments arising prior to
delivery of the Film, and NL shall pay prior to delinquency all required guild
or union residual payments arising after delivery of the Film.

Secured Party (and its agents, officers, directors and employees) as an
additional insured thereunder; and all such policies shall provide for the

Agreement.

     

    (s)
Grantor shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, carry on and conduct
its business in substantially the same manner and in substantially the same
fields of enterprise as it is presently conducted and do all things necessary to
remain duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and (to the extent such
concept applies to such entity) in good standing as a domestic corporation,
partnership or limited liability company in its jurisdiction of incorporation or
organization, as the case may be, as in effect on the date hereof, and maintain
all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which
its business is conducted, except to the extent that the failure to maintain any
of the foregoing would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the Grantor or the rights of the Secured Party under the
Obligations.

     

    (t)
Grantor shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, timely file complete
and correct United States federal and applicable foreign, state and local tax
returns required by law and pay when due all taxes, assessments and governmental

records related to the Film, and to discuss their affairs, finances and

their officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as
often as reasonably requested, but no more often than quarterly. Grantor shall,
immediately upon completion of the quarterly financial statements for each of
the fiscal quarters of Grantor, cause Weinberg & Company, P.A. or such other
independent accounting firm satisfactory to Secured Party, in its sole
discretion (the "Independent
Accountants"), to deliver copies of Grantor's consolidated and
consolidating balance sheets and related statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and cash flows as of the end of and for such fiscal quarter and the then

in full of the Secured Promissory Note and full performance of all Obligations
of Grantor
and NL hereunder. The powers conferred on Secured Party under the Power of
Attorney are
solely to protect Secured Party's interests in the Collateral and shall not
impose any duty upon
Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Secured Party agrees that (a) except
for the powers
granted in clause (h) of the Power of Attorney, it shall not exercise any power
or authority
granted under the Power of Attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing,
and (b) Secured Party shall account for any monies received by Secured Party in
respect
of any foreclosure on or disposition of Collateral pursuant to the Power of
Attorney, provided
that Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral, and Secured Party
shall be accountable
only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such
powers.

     

    NONE OF
SECURED PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE
RESPONSIBLE TO GRANTOR OR NL FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY
POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES
ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL
MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION,
NOR FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES.

     

    8.  Remedies, Rights Upon
Default.

     

    (a) In
addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security
Agreement, the Secured Promissory Note and under any other instrument or
agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Secured Party may
exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor expressly agrees that in any
such event Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time
and place of public or private sale) to or upon Grantor, NL or any other Person
(all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly
waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code and other applicable law),
may forthwith enter upon the premises of Grantor or NL where any Collateral is
located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a
final judgment or giving Grantor, NL or any other Person notice and opportunity
for a hearing on Secured Party's claim or action, and may collect, receive,
assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        17

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    Collateral,
or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an
option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said
Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels
at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may
deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption
of any credit risk. Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale
or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or
sales, to purchase the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any
right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption Grantor hereby
releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or
without notice. Secured Party shall have the right to conduct such sales on
Grantor's premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use Grantor's
premises without charge for such time or times as Secured Party deems necessary
or advisable. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Grantor and NL further agree, at Secured Party's request, to assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place or places
designated by Secured Party which are reasonably convenient to Secured Party, NL
and Grantor, whether at Grantor's premises or elsewhere. Until Secured Party is
able to effect a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral,
Secured Party shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part
thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving
Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Secured
Party. Secured Party shall have no obligation to Grantor or NL to maintain or
preserve the rights of Grantor or NL as against third parties with respect to
Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Secured Party. Secured Party
may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take
possession of Collateral and to enforce any of Secured Party's remedies with
respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such
appointment. Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection,
recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as
Secured Party shall determine in its sole discretion, and only after so paying
over such net proceeds, and after the payment by Secured Party of any other
amount required by any provision of law, need Secured Party account for the
surplus, if any, to Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law,
Grantor and NL waive all claims, damages, and demands against 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 Secured
Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Grantor and NL
agree that ten (10) days prior notice by Secured Party of the time and place of
any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is
reasonable notification of such matters. Grantor shall remain liable for any
deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are
insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any attorneys' fees and other
expenses incurred by Secured Party to collect such deficiency. Secured Party
acknowledges that the rights and remedies set forth in this Section 8(a) are
also reserved to an additional secured party pursuant to the Permitted
Additional Lien.

     

    (b) Except as
otherwise specifically provided herein, Grantor and NL hereby waive 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.

     

    (c) To the
extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Secured Party to exercise
remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Grantor and NL acknowledge and
agree that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Secured Party (i) to fail
to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Secured Party to prepare
Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete 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 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 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 the Grantor or NL,
for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such 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 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        18

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    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 thanretail
markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or
quiet enjoyment, or (xi) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Secured Party,
to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and
other professionals to assist the Secured Party in the collection or disposition
of any of the Collateral. Grantor and NL acknowledge that the purpose of this
Section 8(c) is
to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the
Secured Party would not be commercially unreasonable in the Secured Party's
exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions
by the Secured Party shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on
account of not being indicated in this Section 8(c). Without
limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8(c) shall be
construed to grant any rights to Grantor or NL or to impose any duties on
Secured Party that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security
Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section
8(c).

     

    (d)
Secured Party shall not be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or
exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, Grantor, any other obligor,
guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the
Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect
to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Secured
Party shall not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the
Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any
particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder shall be cumulative.
To the extent it may lawfully do so, Grantor and NL absolutely and irrevocably
waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of, and covenant not to assert
against Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption
or similar laws and any and all rights or defense they may have as sureties 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.

     

    9. Grant of License to use
Intellectual Property. For the sole purpose of enabling Secured Party to
exercise rights and remedies under Section 8 hereof
(including, without limiting the terms of Section 8 hereof, in
order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for
sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as
Secured Party shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies,
Grantor and NL hereby grant to Secured Party an irrevocable, nonexclusive
license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to Grantor
or NL) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or
hereafter acquired by Grantor or NL which is part of the Collateral, and
wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all
media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all
computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout
thereof.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        19

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    10. Limitation on Secured
Party's Duties in Respect of Collateral. Secured Party shall use
reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its
control. Secured Party shall not 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
Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against
prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

     

    11. Reinstatement. This
Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be
effective should any petition be filed by or against Grantor or NL for
liquidation or reorganization, should Grantor or NL become insolvent or make an
assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or
trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Grantor's or NL's
assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be,
if at any time payment and performance of the obligations, or any part thereof,
is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must
otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as
a "voidable preference," "fraudulent conveyance," or otherwise, all as though
such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or
any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations
shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so
rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

     

    12. Notices. Except as
otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice,
demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or
may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or
whenever any of the parties desires to give and serve upon any other party any
communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand,
request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in
writing and shall be given (a) if to Grantor or NL, to Grantor's and NL's
address set forth below the names on the signature page hereof, and (b) if to
Secured Party, to Secured Party's address set forth below its name on the
signature page hereof, or to such other address as either party may furnish to
the others in writing, making specific reference to this Section
12.

     

    13. Severability.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be
interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but
if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid
under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement. This Security Agreement
sets forth the complete understanding and agreement of Secured Party and Grantor
with respect to the matters referred to herein.

    14. No Waiver. Cumulative
Remedies. Secured Party shall not by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and
no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Secured Party and then
only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Secured Party of any right or
remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any
right or remedy which Secured Party would otherwise have had on any future
occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of
Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 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. None of the
terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified
or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Secured Party
and Grantor.

     

    15.  Limitation by Law.
All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement
may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate
any applicable
provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended
to be subject
to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be
limited to the
extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid,
unenforceable, in whole
or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the
provisions of any applicable
law.

     

    16.  [Reserved].

     

    17. Successors and
Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of Grantor hereunder
shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Grantor (including any
debtor-in-possession on behalf of Grantor) and shall, together with the rights
and remedies of Secured Party hereunder, inure to the benefit of Secured Party,
all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations and its
respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales,
assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or
instrument evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein
shall in any manner affect the Lien granted to Secured Party hereunder. Grantor
may not assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or
obligation under this Security Agreement and any unconsented transfer shall be
void ab initio.

     

    18. Counterparts. This
Security Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate counterparts,
each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one and the same
agreement. This Security Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature,
facsimile, or if approved in writing by Secured Party, electronic means, all of
which shall be equally valid.

     

    19. Governing Law. IN ALL
RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS
SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA, APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE AND ANY
APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT AND
AGREE THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES
BETWEEN

    GRANTOR
AND SECURED PARTY PERTAINING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, PROVIDED, THAT SECURED PARTY, NL
AND GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD
BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY, AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER,
NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE SECURED PARTY
FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO
REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO
ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF SECURED PARTY. GRANTOR AND
NL EXPRESSLY SUBMIT AND CONSENT IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR
SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH
IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM
NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE
RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. GRANTOR AND NL HEREBY WAIVE
PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH
ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREE THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER
PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO GRANTOR AND NL
AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ON THE SIGNATURE PAGES HERETO AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE
SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE
(3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

     

    20. Waiver of Jury Trial.
BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE
MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND
THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN
ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR
RELATING HERETO BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE,
TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF
ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT,
TORT, OR OTHERWISE, BETWEEN SECURED PARTY AND GRANTOR ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED
WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION
WITH, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR
THERETO.

     

    21. Section Titles. The
Section titles contained in this Security Agreement are and shall be without
substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the
agreement between the parties hereto.

     

    22. No Strict
Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the
negotiation and drafting of this Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity
or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be
construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the
authorship of any provisions of this Security Agreement.

    23. Advice of Counsel.
Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed
this Security Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Section 19 and Section 20, with its
counsel.

     

    24. Integration. This
Security Agreement, together with the other agreements, documents, and
instruments executed in connection with the foregoing, reflect the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral
or written, before the date hereof.

described above and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases
as Attorney may deem appropriate; (e) file or prosecute any claim, litigation,

financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which
may require such Grantor's signature; and (i) execute any endorsements,
assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the

all acts and other things that Attorney reasonably deems necessary to perfect,
preserve, or realize upon Grantor's property or assets and Attorney's Liens

    FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, 301
PRODUCTIONS, INC., a California corporation ("Borrower"), promises to pay
to the order of GERALD J.
DAIGLE, JR. ("Lender"), at Lender's principal place of business at 909
Poydras Street, Suite 2230, New Orleans, LA 70112 or such other place as Lender
may designate from time to time hereafter, the principal sum of FOUR HUNDRED
FIFTY THOUSAND AND 00/100 Dollars ($450,000.00). Such total principal sum
hereunder shall be due and payable in full, together with all accrued interest
thereon, on June 30, 2010. Borrower's obligations and liabilities to Lender
under this Note shall be defined and referred to herein as "Borrower's
Liabilities."

     

    The
unpaid principal balance of Borrower's Liabilities hereunder shall bear interest
from the date of disbursement until June 30, 2010 at the rate of ten percent
(10%) per annum (computed on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days
elapsed). The unpaid principal balance of Borrower's Liabilities due hereunder
shall bear interest from June 30, 2010 until paid at the rate of eighteen
percent (18%) per annum (computed on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days
elapsed).

     

    Any
deposits or other sums at any time credited by or payable or due from Lender to
Borrower, or any monies, cash, cash equivalents, securities, instruments,
documents or other assets of Borrower in the possession or control of Lender or
its bailee for any purpose, may be reduced to cash and applied by Lender to or
setoff by Lender against Borrower's Liabilities.

     

    The debt
evidenced by this Note is secured by a lien on the Collateral granted to Lender
pursuant to a Security Agreement of even date herewith by and among Borrower,
National Lampoon, Inc. ("NL") and Lender (the "Security Agreement"), and
pursuant to any other agreement, document or instrument delivered to Lender by
or on behalf of Borrower.

     

    Borrower
warrants and represents to Lender that Borrower shall use the proceeds
represented by this Note solely for proper business purposes in accordance with
the Security Agreement and consistently with all applicable laws and
statutes.

     

    Borrower
may prepay all or any portion of Borrower's Liabilities hereunder without
prepayment penalty.

     

    The
occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute a default by the
Borrower ("Event of Default") under this Note: (a) if Borrower fails to pay any
scheduled principal or interest payment or fails to pay any other of Borrower's
Liabilities when due and payable or declared due and payable (whether by
scheduled maturity, required payment, acceleration, demand or otherwise as
provided for in this Note or under applicable law); (b) if Borrower fails or
neglects to perform, keep or observe any term, provision, condition, covenant,
warranty or representation contained in this Note or the Security Agreement; (c)
occurrence of a default or Event of Default under any other agreement
heretofore, now or at any time hereafter delivered by or on behalf of Borrower
to Lender; (d) if the Collateral or any other of Borrower's assets are attached,
seized, subjected to a writ, or are levied upon or become subject to any lien or
come within the possession of any receiver, trustee, custodian or assignee for
the benefit of creditors; (e) if a notice of lien, levy or assessment is filed
of record or given to Borrower with respect to all or any of Borrower's assets
by any federal, state, or local department or agency; (f) if a petition
under

    Title 11
of the United States Code or any similar law or regulation is filed by or
against Borrower or NL, if Borrower or NL shall make an assignment for the
benefit of creditors, if any case or proceeding is filed by or against Borrower
or NL for its dissolution or liquidation, or if Borrower or NL is enjoined,
restrained or in any way prevented by court order from conducting all or any
material part of its business affairs; (g) the dissolution of Borrower or NL, or
the appointment of a conservator for all or any portion of Borrower's assets or
the Collateral; (h) if a contribution failure occurs with respect to any pension
plan maintained by Borrower or any corporation, trade or business that is, along
with Borrower, a member of a controlled group of corporations or controlled
group of trades or businesses (as described in Sections 414(b) and (c) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or Section 4001 of ERISA) sufficient to give rise
to a lien under Section 302(f) of ERISA; (i) if Borrower is in default in the
payment of any obligations, indebtedness or other liabilities to any third party
and such default is declared and is not cured within the time, if any, specified
therefor in any agreement governing the same; or (j) if any material,
representation, statement, report or certificate made or delivered to Lender by
Borrower, NL or any of their partners, officers, employees or agents is not true
and correct.

     

    Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, at Lender's option, without notice by Lender
to or demand by Lender of Borrower: (i) all of Borrower's Liabilities shall be
immediately due and payable; (ii) Lender may exercise any one or more of the
rights and remedies accruing to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial
Code of the relevant jurisdiction and any other applicable law upon default by a
debtor; (iii) Lender may enter, with or without process of law and without
breach of the peace, any premises where the Collateral is or may be located, and
may seize or remove the Collateral from said premises and/or remain upon said
premises and use the same for the purpose of collecting, preparing and disposing
of the Collateral; and/or (iv) Lender may sell or otherwise dispose of the
Collateral at public or private sale for cash or credit, provided, however, that
Borrower shall be credited with the net proceeds of any such sale only when the
same are actually received by Lender.

     

    Upon an
Event of Default, Borrower, immediately upon demand by Lender, shall assemble
the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place or places to be
designated by Lender which is reasonably convenient to Lender and
Borrower.

     

    All of
Lender's rights and remedies under this Note are cumulative and non-exclusive.
The acceptance by Lender of any partial payment made hereunder after the time
when any of Borrower's Liabilities become due and payable will not establish a
custom or waive any rights of Lender to enforce prompt payment hereof. Lender's
failure to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Note
shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand
strict compliance and performance therewith. Any waiver of an Event of Default
hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default
hereunder. Borrower and every endorser waive presentment, demand and protest and
notice of presentment, protest, default, non-payment, maturity, release,
compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of this Note, and hereby ratify and
confirm whatever Lender may do in this regard. Borrower further waives any and
all notice or demand to which Borrower might be entitled with respect to this
Note by virtue of any applicable statute or law (to the extent permitted by
law).

     

    Borrower
agrees to pay, immediately upon demand by Lender, any and all costs, fees and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses) incurred by
Lender (i) in enforcing any of Lender's,rights hereunder, and (ii) in
representing Lender in any litigation, contest, suit or dispute, or to commence,
defend or intervene or to take any action with respect to any litigation,
contest, suit or dispute (whether instituted by Lender, Borrower or any other
person) in any way relating to this Note or Borrower's Liabilities or the
Collateral, and to the extent not paid the same shall become part of Borrower's
Liabilities.
