            This INDENTURE (as amended from time to time as permitted hereby,
the "Indenture") is dated as of June 29, 1999, and is by and among CAKEWALK BRE
LLC, a New York limited liability company (together with its permitted
successors and assigns, the "Issuer"), Entertainment Finance International,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability Company, as lender (together with its
permitted successors and assigns, the "Lender") and RZO Corporate
Administration, Inc., a New Jersey Corporation (together with its permitted
successors and assigns, the "Servicer").

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

            The Issuer has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this
Indenture to provide for the issuance of a single class of Royalty-Backed Notes
(as the same may be amended pursuant to the terms hereof, the "Notes")

            The following table sets forth the designation, type, Note Interest
Rate and aggregate Initial Note Principal Balance for the Notes.

                                                          Initial

                      ----              Rate              Balance
                                        ----              -------
                      Senior            10.09%          $5,500,000

            All covenants and agreements made by the Issuer herein are for the
benefit and security of the Noteholders. The Issuer is entering into this
Indenture, and the Lender is accepting the Grant created hereby on behalf of
itself and any subsequent Holder of Notes, for good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged.

                                GRANTING CLAUSES

            The Issuer hereby Grants to the Holders of the Notes a lien upon and
a security interest in all of the Issuer's right, title and interest (but none
of the obligations) in and to the following (collectively, the "Collateral"),
subject, however, in each case, to any applicable Impositions on Rights:

            (a) the Issuer's entire worldwide right, title and interest in and
to any and all of the Assets, whether such rights were acquired by the Issuer
under Section 4 or under Section 15 of the Capital Contribution Agreement;

<PAGE>
            (b) all cash, securities, instruments and other property held from
time to time in the Collection Account or the Reserve Fund or otherwise
transferred to the Lender hereunder;

            (c) the Contribution Agreement, the Management Agreement and any
other material agreements to which the Issuer is a party, including, without
limitation, bills of sale, in each case as the same may be modified, amended,
supplemented or restated from time to time;

            (d) all books and records concerning the foregoing property
(including without limitation all tapes, disks and related items containing any
such information);

            (e) all other assets of the Issuer of any kind or nature whether now
owned or hereafter acquired; and

            (f) all proceeds of the foregoing of any nature whatsoever,
including without limitation proceeds and the conversion, voluntary or
involuntary, of any thereof.

            Such Grants are only made, however, in trust, solely to secure (i)
the Notes equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction among
the Notes by reason of difference in time of delivery or otherwise, (ii) the
payment of all other sums payable under this Indenture, and (iii) compliance
with the provisions of this Indenture, all as provided in this Indenture.

            It is expressly agreed that anything herein contained to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not, other than as required by
applicable law, be released from any of its obligations under any of the
Collateral, and the Lender shall have no obligation or liability under any
Collateral by reason of or arising out of the assignment hereunder, nor shall
the Lender be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any
obligations of the Issuer under or pursuant to any of the Collateral or such
other documents or to make any payment, subject, however, to any applicable
Imposition on Rights, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of
any payment received by them, or present or file any claim, or take any action
to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to
them or to which they may be entitled at any time or times.

            The Issuer does hereby warrant and represent that (i) except for
Impositions on Rights, it has not permitted and hereby covenants that it will
not permit the creation of any lien other than the lien of this Indenture with
respect to any part of the Collateral, so long as this Indenture shall remain in
effect, to anyone other than the Lender, and that it will not, except as
provided in this Indenture and the Management Agreement, without the prior
written consent of the Lender, enter into any agreement amending or
supplementing any of the Collateral, execute or grant any waiver or modification
of, or consent under, the terms of any

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

of the Collateral, settle or compromise any claim arising under any of the
Collateral or submit or consent to the submission of any dispute, difference or
other matter arising under or in respect of any of the Collateral, to
arbitration thereunder, and (ii) the representations and warranties of the
Issuer contained in this Indenture are true and correct.

            The Lender acknowledges such Grant, and accepts the same in
accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

            The Lender agrees to maintain in its possession each item of
Collateral constituting an instrument or chattel paper under the UCC delivered
to it unless and until such item of Collateral is released from the lien hereof
pursuant to Article V hereof.

            All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the
Issuer in accordance with its terms have been done.

                                   ARTICLE I.
                        DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS
                             OF GENERAL APPLICATION

            Section 1.1. Definitions

            (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or unless the
context otherwise requires, the capitalized terms used in the Indenture shall
have the respective meanings specified in the Standard Definitions set forth as
Appendix A hereto, which is incorporated herein by this reference. The
definitions of such terms are equally applicable both to the singular and plural
forms of such terms.

            (b) All references in this instrument to designated "Articles,"
"Sections," "Subsections" and other subdivisions are to the designated Articles,
Sections, Subsections and other subdivisions of this instrument as originally
executed or if amended or supplemented, as so amended and supplemented. The
words herein, "hereof," "hereunder" and other words of similar import refer to
this Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section, Subsection
or other subdivision.

            (c) All calculations of interest are determined on the basis of a
360 day year of twelve 30-day months.

            Section 1.2. Acts Of Noteholders

            (a) If, at any time, there is more than one Holder of the Notes, any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Holders of 51% of
the Note Principal Balance of Notes Outstanding may be embodied in and evidenced
by

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such
Noteholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as
herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when
such instrument or instruments are delivered where it is herein expressly
required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied
therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of
the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of
any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the
Holders and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.2.

            (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Lender reasonably
deems sufficient.

            (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

            (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind the Holder of every
Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by
the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made
upon such Note.

            Section 1.3. Notices, etc. to Lender and Issuer

            Except as otherwise provided, any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other document provided or permitted by
this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with

                  (l) the Lender by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every
            purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to
            or with the Servicer at the Servicer's Office; or

                  (2) the Issuer by the Servicer or the Lender shall be
            sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed,
            registered mail return receipt requested or by overnight courier or
            hand delivery, to the Issuer addressed to it at 250 West 57th
            Street, New York, New York 10107, attention: Robert Miller, with a
            copy to Baer Marks & Upham LLP, 805 Third Avenue, New York, New York
            10022, attention: Michael Blumenthal, Esq. or at any other address
            previously furnished in writing to the Servicer or the Lender by the
            Issuer.

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

            Section 1.4. Notices to Lender; Waiver

            Where this Indenture provides for notice to Lender of any event,
such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and by registered mail return receipt requested or by
overnight courier or hand delivery, to the Lender, at its address as it appears
on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the
earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. Any notice which is
mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed effective upon receipt or
refusal.

            Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice
may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by the Lender shall be filed with the Servicer, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.

            In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical
to mail notice of any event to the Lender when such notice is required to be
given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving
such notice as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer shall be deemed
to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

            Section 1.5. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents

            The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

            Section 1.6. Successors and Assigns

            All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer shall
bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

            Section 1.7. Severability

            In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

            Section 1.8. Benefits of Indenture

            Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, and any of their
successors hereunder and the Noteholders, any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

                                       -5-

and to be performed therein.

            Section 1.10. Counterparts

            This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

            Section 1.11. Consents

            Any consent of any of the parties hereto required pursuant to this
Agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

                                   ARTICLE II.

"Lender") and RZO Corporate Administration, Inc., as servicer (the "Servicer"),
to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Lender, the Servicer and the Holders of the
Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, delivered. All
terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. Certain provisions of the Indenture
are described in this Note. The Note shall govern in the event that the

Default, the Notes are payable only at the time and in the manner provided in
the Indenture and are not redeemable or prepayable at the option of the Issuer
before such time except that the Notes shall be redeemable at the option of the
Issuer in whole, but not in part, on any Payment Date. The Notes shall be
redeemed at a redemption price equal to the aggregate Outstanding Note Principal
Balance thereof, plus accrued interest thereon

Indenture.

therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note

at the office or agency of the Servicer in the United States of America, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form and
content satisfactory to the Issuer and the Servicer duly executed by, the Holder
hereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new

Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Issuer with the consent of the Lender. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Lender to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults and their consequences
under the Indenture. Any such consent or waiver by the Lender shall be
conclusive and binding upon the Lender and upon all future holders of this Note
and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Note.

            The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
such authorized denominations as provided in the Indenture and subject to

            Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at any time the proper officers of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the
date of delivery of such Notes.

            Each Note shall bear on its face the Issue Date and be dated as of
the date of its delivery.

            Section 3.4. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange

            The Servicer is hereby appointed as registrar of the Notes (the
"Note Registrar") and the agent of the Issuer for transfer of the Notes (the
"Transfer Agent"). The Lender is hereby appointed as the agent of the Issuer
for the payment of the Notes (the "Paying Agent"). The Servicer and the Lender
each accept such appointments. The Servicer in its capacity as the Note
Registrar shall cause to be kept a register (the "Note Register") in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Servicer shall
provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of
Notes.

            Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the
office or agency of the Servicer to be maintained as provided in Section 11.2,
the Issuer shall execute and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee
or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a
like Initial Note Principal Balance.

            At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes
of any authorized denominations and of a like Initial Note Principal Balance,
upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever
any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and deliver
the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

            All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt,
entitled to the same benefits and subject to all the terms and conditions of
this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of such transfer
or exchange.

            Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Servicer) be duly endorsed,
or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form and content
satisfactory to the Issuer and the Servicer duly executed, by the Holder thereof
or his attorney duly authorized in writing. The form of assignment set forth at
Exhibit A hereof shall be deemed to be satisfactory for purposes of the last
preceding sentence.

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

            No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Servicer may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 9.4 not involving any
registration of transfer.

            Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note the Holder
transferring such Note will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount
of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid
thereon or surrender such Note to the Servicer in exchange for a new Note or
Notes pursuant to this Section.

            Section 3.5. Limitation on Transfer and Exchange

            The Notes have not been registered or qualified under the 1933 Act
or the securities laws of any state. No transfer of any Note shall be made
unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the 1933 Act and registration or qualification under applicable state
securities laws or is exempt from such registration or qualification. In the
event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the 1933
Act and applicable state securities laws, the Servicer shall require, in order
to assure compliance with the 1933 Act, that the prospective transferee certify
to the Issuer and the Servicer in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in
the form of either Exhibit B or Exhibit C hereto, provided, however, such
certificates will not be required for the transfers by the initial purchaser.
Neither the Issuer nor the Servicer is obligated to register or qualify the
Notes under the 1933 Act or any other securities law.

            In addition, the Servicer or other Note Registrar shall not permit a
transfer of a Note if such transfer would result in the Issuer having more than
ninety-nine (99) registered Noteholders as shown in the Note Register.

            The Issuer and the Servicer shall have no liability to the
Noteholders or otherwise arising from a transfer of any such Note in reliance
upon the Investment Letter described in Exhibit B or the Rule 144A
Representation Letter described in Exhibit C.

            Section 3.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes

            If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Servicer, or the
Servicer receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Servicer such security or
indemnity as may be required by the Servicer to indemnify and hold the Issuer
and the Servicer harmless (which in the case of any holder that is, or is a
subsidiary of, a bank or other institutional buyer with a net

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

worth of at least $50,000,000, and whose claims paying ability or long-term debt
is rated at least investment grade or better by a Rating Agency, need only be
such bank's or institutional buyer's unsecured written promise of indemnity),
then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer or the Note Registrar that such
Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Note, a new Note of the same tenor and Initial Note Principal Balance,
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding; provided, however, that if
any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall have become or shall be
about to become due and payable the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of
issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

            Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section, the Issuer or
the Servicer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto.

            Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or
stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to
all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all
other Notes duly issued hereunder.

            The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to
the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

            Section 3.7. Payment of Principal and Interest

            The principal of and interest on the Notes are payable by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified in directions
delivered at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Payment Date by a
Registered Holder to the Person whose name appears as the Registered Holder of
such Note on the Record Date on the Note Register. Such payment shall be in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of tender is
legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. Payments pursuant to
Section 13.1 shall be made to each Noteholder, if there is more than one, based
on the aggregate of the Percentage Interests represented by Notes held by such
Noteholder.

            To prevent backup withholding on payments made with respect to the
Notes, each Noteholder is required to provide the Servicer with (i) the
Noteholder's correct TIN by completing the form at Exhibit D (Substitute Form
W-9), certifying that the TIN provided on the Substitute Form W-9 is correct (or
that such Noteholder is awaiting a TIN) and that (A) such Noteholder is exempt
from backup withholding, (B) the Noteholder has not been

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

notified by the IRS that the Noteholder is subject to backup withholding as a
result of failure to report all interest or dividends or (C) the IRS has
notified the Noteholder that the Noteholder is no longer subject to backup
withholding, or (ii) if applicable, an adequate basis for exemption. A Foreign
Noteholder may qualify as an exempt recipient by submitting to the Servicer a
properly completed IRS Form W-8, signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to
that Noteholder's exempt status, and (iii) any other document and to take any
other action required by applicable law or tax regulation of the United States
or any state thereof.

      Section 3.8. Persons Deemed Owners

      Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the
Issuer, the Servicer and any agent of the Issuer or the Servicer may treat the
Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the
purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest on such Note (subject
to Section 3.7) and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note
be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Servicer nor any agent of the Issuer or
the Servicer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

      Section 3.9. Cancellation

      All Notes surrendered to the Servicer following payment or for
registration of transfer or exchange (including Notes surrendered to any Person
other than the Servicer which shall be delivered to the Servicer) shall be
promptly canceled and destroyed by the Servicer in accordance with its customary
procedures.

                                   ARTICLE IV.

Notes, or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel that no such authorization, approval or
consent of any governmental body is required;

            (c) an Officers' Certificate from the Issuer stating that the Issuer
is not, as of the Issue Date, in Default under this Indenture and that the

conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, the Issuer's
organizational documents or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other
agreement or instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which it is bound,
or any order of any court or administrative agency entered in any proceeding to
which the Issuer is a party or by which it may be bound or to which it may be
subject; and that all conditions precedent provided in this Indenture relating
to the delivery of the Notes have been complied with; and

acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the

      a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or
      other similar official of the Issuer or any substantial part of its

      creditors or the failure by the Issuer generally to pay its debts as such
      debts become due or the taking of partnership action by the Issuer in
      furtherance of any of the foregoing.

            (8) the occurrence of a Deficiency Trigger Event which is not cured
      within 30 days of the immediately following Payment Date.

            Section 6.2. Acceleration of Maturity, Rescission and Annulment

            If an Event of Default of the kind specified in clauses (5), (6) and
(7) of Section 6.1 occurs, the unpaid principal amount of all of the Notes shall
automatically become immediately due and payable without notice, presentment or
demand of any kind. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of
the kind specified in clauses (5), (6) and (7) of Section 6.1) occurs and is
continuing, then and in every such case the Lender may declare the principal of
all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to
the Issuer and the Servicer and upon any such declaration (in accordance with
this sentence or the preceding sentence) the Notes shall become immediately due
and payable at the Redemption Price.

            At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made,
but before any Sale of the Collateral has been made or a judgment or decree for
payment of the money due has been obtained by the Lender as hereinafter in this
Article provided, the Lender by written notice to the Issuer and the

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

Servicer, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequence if

            (1) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Servicer a sum
      sufficient to pay

                  (A) all overdue installments of interest on all Notes,

                  (B) the principal of any of the Notes which has become due
            other than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon
            at the Note Interest Rate,

                  (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
            interest upon overdue installments of interest on the Notes at the
            rate specified therefor in the Notes,

                  (D) in connection with the preservation of the Collateral and
            enforcement of its rights all sums paid or advanced by the Lender
            hereunder and the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
            of the Servicer, its agents and counsel; and

            (2) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the
      principal of the Notes which have become due solely by such acceleration,
      have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

            Subsequent to any such declaration of acceleration and so long as
such declaration and its consequences has not been rescinded and annulled, prior
to the exercise by the Lender of the remedies set forth in Section 6.3, the
Lender shall give the Rating Agencies ten days notice of its intention to take
such actions.

            Section 6.3. Remedies

            If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Lender or the Servicer shall, at the written direction of the Lender, and
subject to Article VII herein, do one or more of the following:

            (a) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then
payable on the Notes or under this Indenture, whether by declaration or
otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Collateral
securing the Notes the monies adjudged due;

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

            (b) sell the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or interest
therein, at one or more Sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by
law;

            (c) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or
partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the portion of the
Collateral securing the Notes; and

            (d) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code or other applicable law and take any other appropriate action to
protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Holders of the Notes
hereunder;

provided, however, that if there is more than one Holder of Outstanding Notes
and if less than all of the Holders of Outstanding Notes have approved a Sale of
the Collateral and if the proceeds of any such Sale will be less than the amount
required to retire all of the Outstanding Notes in full, then, in any such
event, the Lender may not sell or otherwise liquidate any of the Collateral
unless after consultation with an accounting firm acceptable to the Noteholders
or another Person approved by Act of the Noteholders of national reputation in
the field of appraisal of assets of the type constituting the Collateral, such
Person provides the Servicer with a written report that the proceeds of such
Sale reflect a reasonable approximation of the fair market value of the
Collateral. The Lender shall have no liability for any public Sale or private
Sale conducted in reliance upon the advice, with respect to the commercial
reasonableness of the sale, of a Person of national reputation in the field of
appraisal. In the event that the Servicer does not sell or otherwise liquidate
the Collateral, it shall continue to hold such Collateral and make distributions
therefrom pursuant to Article XIII hereof.

            Section 6.4. Lender May File Claim

            In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency,
liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial Proceeding, relating to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the
Notes or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors,
the Lender (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due
and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective
of whether the Lender shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment
of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, to intervene
in such proceeding or otherwise,

            (i) to file and prove a claim for all amounts owing and unpaid in
respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents and take such
other action including participating as a member, voting or otherwise, in any
committee of creditors appointed in the matter, as may be necessary or advisable

      disbursements and advances of the Lender, its agents and counsel) allowed
      in such judicial Proceeding;

            (ii) to petition for lifting of the automatic stay and thereupon to
      foreclose upon the Collateral as elsewhere provided herein; and

            (iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
      deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, or sequestrator (or other
similar official) in any such judicial Proceeding is hereby authorized by the
Lender to make such payments to the Servicer, and to pay to the Lender any
amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Lender, its agents and counsel.

may be prosecuted and enforced by the Lender without the possession of any of
the Notes or the production thereof in any Proceeding relating thereto, and any
such Proceedings instituted by the Lender shall be brought in its own name, and
any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lender, its
agents and counsel, be for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered applied to payments on the Notes to the
persons and in the order set forth in Section 6.6.

            Section 6.6. Allocation of Money Collected

            If the Notes have been declared due and payable following an Event
of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled, any money collected by the Lender with respect to the Notes pursuant
to this Article (and any funds then held or thereafter received by the Lender)
shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the
Lender:

            FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Servicer under the
Servicing Agreement;

            SECOND: To the payment of accrued interest on and the Note Principal

                                      -21-

of the Issuer or any other person legally entitled thereto.

            Section 6.7. Unconditional Right of Lender to Receive Principal and
Interest

            Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of
any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of and interest on such Note as such principal and
interest becomes due and payable and to institute suit for the enforcement of
any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of
such Holder; provided, however, that no Holder of any Note shall petition or
otherwise invoke the process of any court or government authority for the
purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Issuer under any federal
or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official
of the Issuer or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding
up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer.

            Section 6.8. Restoration of Rights and Remedies

            If the Lender has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Person who
instituted the Proceeding, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Lender
shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Issuer and the Lender shall continue as though no such
Proceeding has been instituted.

            Section 6.9. Rights and Remedies Cumulative

            No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Lender
is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and

            No delay or omission of the Lender to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.
Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Lender may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient by the
Lender.

            Section 6.11. Waiver of Past Defaults

            The Lender may waive any past Default with respect to the Notes
hereunder and its consequences, except a Default

            (l) described in Sections 6.1(5) and (6), or

            (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article
      IX cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each
      Outstanding Note affected thereby.

            Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every
purpose of this Indenture. The Lender shall transmit by mail to the Rating
Agencies and the Issuer notice of such waiver specifying the date on which the
Default was waived promptly after the occurrence of such waiver.

Indenture, or in any suit against the Lender for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it as Lender, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees against
any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith
of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of

it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the
performance by the Issuer under this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent
that it may lawfully do so) hereby

                                      -23-

the Lender, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.

            (a) The power to effect any sale (a "Sale") of any portion of the
Collateral pursuant to Section 6.3 shall not be exhausted by any one or more
Sales as to any portion of the Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue
unimpaired until the entire Collateral securing the Notes shall have been sold
or all amounts payable under this Indenture with respect thereto shall have been
paid. Any sale conducted hereunder shall be completed in accordance with the
applicable terms and provisions of the New York State Uniform Commercial Code.
The Lender may from time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made
at the time and place of such Sale. It is hereby expressly agreed that the
Lender is not limited to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale,
so long as the same shall be reasonable.

            (b) The Lender may bid for and acquire any portion of the Collateral
securing the Notes in connection with any Sale thereof. In lieu of paying cash
for the entire purchase price therefor, the Lender, after deducting the costs,
charges and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses)
incurred by the Lender in connection with such Sale may make settlement for any
portion of the purchase price remaining by crediting against amounts owing on
the Notes held by it or other amounts owing to the Lender secured by this
Indenture, the portion of the net proceeds of such Sale to which the Lender
would be entitled hereunder.

            (c) The Issuer covenants and agrees that ten Business Days prior
notice of a Sale of the entirety of the Collateral by a public Sale constitutes
commercially reasonable notice.

            (d) The Servicer shall prepare and the Lender shall execute and
deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any
portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof, which Sale shall be
at the expense of the Issuer. In addition, the Lender is hereby irrevocably
appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey
its interest in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, and to take all action necessary to
effect such Sale. No purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to
ascertain the Lender's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any
conditions precedent or see to the application of any monies.

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

            (e) Any amounts received by the Lender in connection with a public
or private sale pursuant this Section shall be deemed to be conclusive and
binding upon the parties hereto and the Lender shall have no liability in
respect hereto.

            Section 6.15. Action on Notes

            The Lender's right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or
under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or
application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither
the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Lender shall be
impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Lender against the Issuer or by
the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral
or upon any of the assets of the Issuer.

            Section 6.16. Issuer Bankruptcy

             The Lender, by its acceptance of the Notes shall be deemed to
agree, that it will not join in any proceeding to commence a case against the
Issuer under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar federal or state law.

      Interest Rate thereon or change the amount or priority or time of any
      payment on any Note or any place of payment where, or the coin or currency

      to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment; or

            (2) impair or adversely affect the Collateral except as otherwise
      permitted herein; or

sold, nor will any of them offer or sell, any Note or any part thereof or any

thereunder, or the securities laws of any state of the United States or require
registration pursuant thereto, nor have they authorized, nor will they
authorize, any Person to act in such manner. Based on the foregoing, it is not

of the Issuer's covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or any of

including, but not limited to, any such proceeding or investigation resulting
from the ownership or use of any of the Collateral, against or affecting the
Issuer before any administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body against
the Issuer or, to the best knowledge of the Issuer, any threatened action or
proceeding, including but not limited to any such proceeding or investigation

            (x) The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act nor

            (z) The Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender for
the amount of any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent
that such loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the

Collateral. All of the Lender's rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and
protections afforded herein shall also be afforded to it with respect to its
administration of the Lockbox Account. The Eligible Financial Institution at
which the Lockbox Account is established shall be under standing instructions
from the Lender to the effect that funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall
be deposited into the Collection Account on the Business Day on which deposits
to the Lockbox Account become collected funds.

            Section 12.3. Repurchase of Collateral

            (a) If at any time the Issuer, the Servicer or the Lender discovers
(i) that any of the representations and warranties of Cakewalk LLC in the
Contribution Agreement was incorrect in any material and adverse respect at the
time as of which such representations and warranties were made, or (ii) that any
of the other circumstances set forth in the Contribution Agreement that require
a repurchase of an item of Collateral contributed pursuant to such Contribution
Agreement have occurred, then the party discovering such defect, omission, or
occurrence shall promptly notify the other parties.

by the Lender, then the Servicer shall request in writing that: Cakewalk LLC,
pursuant to the Contribution Agreement eliminate or otherwise cure such
circumstance or condition (provided that the Servicer incurs no liability for
Cakewalk LLC's failure to cure such circumstance or condition). If Cakewalk LLC

Contribution Agreement, then the Servicer shall require Cakewalk LLC to effect a
repurchase pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
Contribution Agreement of any item of

                                      -43-

Collateral as to which such representation or warranty is incorrect. Upon such
repurchase the Lender shall release the item of the Collateral from the lien of
this Indenture pursuant to Section 12.6. The proceeds of a repurchase shall be
deposited in the Collection Account by the Lender upon receipt.

            (c) If Cakewalk LLC shall be obligated or entitled to repurchase any

specified in the Contribution Agreement, Cakewalk LLC shall repurchase such item
of the Collateral at a purchase price calculated in accordance with Section 10
of the Contribution Agreement. The Servicer shall deposit such amount in the
Collection Account upon receipt, and upon such deposit, the Issuer shall be
deemed to have complied with all requirements imposed upon it by this Section
12.3 with respect to the repurchased item of Collateral.

Indenture and promptly deliver all Collateral held by it to the Issuer.

rating (or issuing letters with respect to) the Warehouse Notes or the Term
Notes, including, if necessary and reasonably acceptable to the parties hereto,
amending and/or restating this Indenture at a future date to include such other
provisions as the parties shall agree to change which may be necessary or
appropriate in connection with a securitization transaction, including, without

Ladies and Gentlemen:

            In connection with the purchase by _____________________ (the
"Purchaser") from ______________________ of $ _______ of Royalty-Backed Notes
(the "Notes"), issued by CAKEWALK BRE LLC (the "Issuer"), pursuant to an
indenture (the "Indenture"), dated as of June 29, 1999, by and among the Issuer,
RZO Corporate Administration, Inc., as servicer (the "Servicer") and
Entertainment Finance International, LLC, as lender (the "Lender"), we hereby
represent and warrant to, and covenant with, you that:

1. The Purchaser understands that the Notes have not been registered or
qualified under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or the
securities laws of any state, and therefore cannot be resold unless they are
registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from registration or
qualification is available.

2. The Purchaser is acquiring the Notes for its own account or for resale to
"qualified institutional buyers" in transactions in accordance with Rule 144A
promulgated under the 1933 Act and not with a view to distribution of the Notes
in violation of the 1933 Act or for any other purpose.

3. The Purchaser is a substantial, sophisticated institutional investor having
such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Notes.

4. The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any Note, except in
compliance with the provisions of Section 3.05 of the Indenture.

5. The Purchaser understands that the Indenture has not been qualified under the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and that the Issuer has not been
registered under the Investment Issuer Act of 1940, as amended.

6. The Purchaser agrees that in the event that at some future time it wishes to
dispose of or exchange its Note or Notes, it will not transfer or exchange its
Note or Notes unless (i) such Note or Notes are sold in a transaction that does
not require registration under the 1933 Act or registration by the Company

                                       B-2
<PAGE>

under any applicable State securities laws, and (ii) the Purchaser obtains from
any subsequent purchaser written representations to the same effect as those
contained in the foregoing paragraphs and this paragraph and delivers a copy of
the same to the Servicer.

7. The Purchaser understands that the Notes bear a legend to substantially the
following effect:

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE COMPANY HAS
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, AS AMENDED (THE
"INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT"), AND THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS EXCEPT IN A TRANSACTION THAT IS EXEMPTED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT (INCLUDING TRANSFER MADE PURSUANT TO RULE 144A UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT) AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

8. Unless the Purchaser has delivered to you an opinion of counsel of the type
described in paragraph 9 below, the Purchaser represents that, with respect to
the source of funds to be used by the Purchaser to purchase the Notes (the
"Source") either:

            (a) The Purchaser is an insurance company and either (i) the Source
is the general account of the Purchaser; or (ii) the Source is a separate
account within the meaning of Section 3 (17) of ERISA, which account is both a
"pooled separate account" within the meaning of Prohibited Transaction Class
Exemption 90-1 ("PTE 90-1") and an "investment fund" within the meaning of Part
V of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 84-14 ("PTE 84-14"); provided, with
respect to an investment from a source of funds pursuant to (ii) above: (A) all
requirements for exemption under PTE 90-1 are met with respect to the use of the
separate account's funds to purchase the Notes; (B) it meets the definition of a
"Qualified Professional Asset Manager" within the meaning of Part V(a) of PTE
84-14; (C) it has negotiated the terms, and made the decision, on behalf of the
separate account to enter into the purchase of the Notes, which was not a part
of an arrangement designed to benefit a party in interest; and (D) to the best
of its knowledge after reasonable investigation and on the basis of the
disclosure provided by the Issuer to date, all conditions for application of PTE
84-14 are met with respect to those plans holding interests of ten percent or
greater in the separate account; or

            (b) The Purchaser is an entity other than an insurance company and
either (i) the Source is not an "employee benefit plan" (within the meaning of
Section 3 (3) of ERISA), a "plan" (within the meaning of Section 4975 (e) (l) of
the Code) or an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of
the investment in the entity by such an "employee benefit plan" or "plan" and
the application of the DOL's "plan assets"

                                       B-3
<PAGE>

regulation, 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 (Nov. 13, 1986); (ii) the Source is a
"governmental plan" (within the meaning of Section 3 (32) of ERISA); or (iii)
the Source is a "collective investment fund maintained by a bank" (within the
meaning of PTCE 91-38) and the assets of no single employee benefit plan
(treating as a single plan all employee benefit plans maintained by the same
employer or employee organization) invested in such bank collective investment
fund exceeds 10% of the total assets in that fund.

9. If the Purchaser cannot make the representation set forth in Paragraph 8
above, the Purchaser has delivered to you an opinion of its counsel (who may be
a member of its in-house legal staff) addressed to the Issuer, the Servicer and
the Lender, to the effect that the purchase and holding of Notes by the
Purchaser will not (a) result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under, or
otherwise violate, ERISA or the Code, (b) cause the Servicer to be deemed a
fiduciary of an "employee benefit plan" (within the meaning of Section 3 (3) of
ERISA) or (c) result in the imposition of an excise tax under the Code on the
Servicer.

10. If the Purchaser sells any of the Notes, the Purchaser will either (a)
obtain from any subsequent purchaser one of the alternative representations
contained in the foregoing paragraph 8 or (b) provide you with an opinion of
counsel of the type described in paragraph 9 above. The Purchaser understands
that under current law it may not be possible to render such an opinion.

11. The Purchaser is not a partnership, grantor trust or S corporation of which
(i) substantially all of the value of the interest of a person owning an
interest in such entity is attributable to the entity's (direct or indirect)
interest in the Note, and (ii) a principal purpose of the use of the tiered
arrangement is to permit the Issuer to satisfy the 100-person limitation in
paragraph (h) (1) (ii) of Section 1.7704-1 of the Treasury Regulations.

                                          Very truly yours,

                                          [PURCHASER]

not in any event with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any
distribution thereof. It understands that the Notes have not been registered
under the 1933 Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration

nature of the Purchaser's investment intent (or intent to resell only in Rule
144A transactions) as expressed herein.

4. The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any Note, except in
compliance with the provisions of Section 3.05 of the Indenture.

Agreement (as such term and other capitalized terms used herein are defined

certain duties in connection with the Indenture and the Collateral therefor
pledged, and the Issuer desires to have the Servicer perform certain of such
duties as the Issuer's agent, and provide such additional services consistent
with the terms of this Agreement and the Related Agreements as the Issuer may
from time to time request, and the Servicer has agreed to perform such duties.

            The Servicer agrees that all covenants and agreements made by the
Servicer in its capacities herein with respect to the Collateral shall be for
the benefit and security of the Lender. For its services hereunder the Servicer

                           ARTICLE 2 - ADMINISTRATION
                           AND SERVICING OF COLLATERAL

            Section 2.01 The Servicer To Act as Servicer. Subject to the rights
and obligations of the Manager under the Management Agreement, the Servicer
shall administer and service all Collateral as the agent of the Issuer for the
benefit of the Issuer and, to the extent of the Issuer's obligations under the
Indenture, to the Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and,
subject to the Indenture, the Servicer shall have full power and authority to do
any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it
may deem necessary or desirable, including enforcement of the Management
Agreement on behalf of the Issuer and the Lender. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, subject to the Indenture, the Servicer is hereby
authorized and empowered by the Issuer to execute and deliver on its behalf in
the event the Manager fails to do so, any and all consents, instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and
all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Collateral. The Servicer
agrees that servicing of the Collateral shall be carried out prudently and in
accordance with customary and usual servicing standards for other institutional
servicers and applicable law, and to the extent not inconsistent with the
foregoing, the Servicer shall exercise that degree of skill and care consistent
with the degree of skill and care that the Servicer exercises with respect to
similar property and property rights owned or serviced by the Servicer and its
Affiliates and shall apply in the servicing and administration of the Collateral
standards, policies and procedures consistent with the standards, policies and
procedures that the Servicer and its Affiliates applies with respect to similar
property and property rights owned or serviced by it. The Servicer shall give
prior written notice to the Issuer, the Manager and the Lender of any material
change to its servicing policies and procedures; provided, however, that the
Servicer shall not make any such change that is or will be material and adverse
to the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders. Promptly after the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, the
Manager and the Lender a list, certified by its secretary or one of its
assistant secretaries, of the officers and employees of the Servicer involved
in, or responsible for, the administration and servicing of the Collateral,
which list shall from time to time be updated by the Servicer and which may be
relied upon until so updated and delivered to the Issuer, the Manager and the
Lender.

            Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall
have the following duties:

            (a) the Servicer shall supervise the activities of the Manager and
shall enforce the Manager's obligations under the Management Agreement,
including, but not limited to, the following:

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

                  (i) If any obligated party shall be in default under any
            Collateral, the Servicer shall promptly direct the Manager to take
            such actions as are consistent with the Manager's normal and
            customary actions to require such obligated party to remedy such
            default, including sending appropriate notice of such default to
            such obligated party and to the Lender.

                  (ii) The Servicer shall direct the Manager to take all
            necessary actions to maintain, enforce or renew any intellectual
            property rights registration (including, but not limited to
            copyright, trademark and patent registrations) in respect of any of
            the Collateral in any federal or foreign jurisdiction where
            intellectual property rights similar to the intellectual property
            rights included in the Collateral are generally registered and where
            the failure to take any such action will have a material adverse
            effect on the value of the Collateral or the interests of the Issuer
            and the Noteholders therein. Upon the Manager's failure to do so,
            the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Issuer and
            the Lender to execute and deliver on behalf of the Issuer and the
            Lender, any and all documents or instruments necessary to maintain,
            enforce or renew such copyrights.

            (b) Upon any release of the Lender's security interest in any
Collateral, the Servicer shall effect the release and transfer of documents with
respect to the Deleted Collateral in accordance with the Indenture.

            Section 2.02 Collection of Payments.

            (a) The Servicer shall not commingle payments received under the
Collateral with any other funds, payments or assets.

            (b) The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect, or cause
the Manager to collect, all payments called for under the terms and provisions
of the Collateral including all RYKO Payments, and to cause the same to be
deposited in the Lockbox Account by the payors thereof. The Servicer shall,
consistent with this Agreement and the rights of the Manager under the
Management Agreement, follow such normal and customary collection procedures as
it follows with respect to its own receivables and contracts which are
comparable to the Collateral or as are normal and customary in the entertainment
industry.

            (c) The Servicer shall cause to be deposited in the Collection
Account (i) within two Business Days of receipt all payments of monies received
directly by the Servicer from any obligated party in respect of the Collateral
and (ii) within the time frame specified in Section 12.2(c) of the Indenture,
any sums received in the Lock-Box Account.

<PAGE>

            Section 2.03 Records and Certain Moneys Held in Bailment.

            (a) The Servicer acknowledges that any monies from time to time
received by it with respect to the Collateral have been pledged, subject to any
applicable Impositions on Rights, to the Lender under the Indenture and that,
solely for the purposes of perfection of the Lender's security interest in such
monies, the Servicer shall act as agent and bailee of the Lender in
administering such monies, as well as agent and bailee of the Lender in holding
any documents or other items relating to such monies which from time to time
come into the possession of the Servicer. The Servicer agrees, for the benefit
of the Issuer and the Lender, with respect to their interests to act as such
agent and bailee, and to deal with such monies, such documents and such items,
as agent and bailee for the Issuer and the Lender, to apply such monies solely
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Indenture,
respectively, to the payment of the principal and interest on the Notes for
whose payment such money has been deposited with the Servicer.

            (b) With respect to Collateral serviced by the Servicer, the
Servicer shall retain all data relating directly to or maintained in connection
with the servicing of such Collateral at the offices of the Servicer, shall give
the Issuer, the Manager and the Lender access to all such data at all reasonable
times and shall mark such data in a manner that readily permits its
identification as such by the Issuer, the Manager and the Lender. If the rights
of the Servicer shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 5.01, the
Servicer shall, upon demand of the Issuer, the Manager or the Lender, deliver to
the Issuer, the Manager or the Lender, as the case may be, all data necessary
for the servicing of such Collateral together with all monies, documents and
other items relating to the Collateral. For purposes of effecting delivery of
the foregoing, the Issuer, the Manager, the Lender or any Person appointed
pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, shall be permitted, but shall not be obligated,
to enter the Servicer's offices upon the giving of one Business Day's prior
notice.

            (c) Upon satisfaction and discharge of this Agreement, the
Indenture, and at the written request of the Lender and the Issuer and upon
being supplied with appropriate forms therefor, at such time as there are no
obligations outstanding and all amounts due under this Agreement and the
Indenture have been paid, the Servicer shall, at the expense of the Issuer,
cause the Lender to execute and the Issuer shall file all documents (including
without limitation Form UCC-3 and any necessary copyright, trademark or patent
forms) necessary to discharge all Liens and other security interests filed with
any governmental board or body with respect to the Lender's lien on the
Collateral, and any other assets of the Collateral, and the Servicer shall
otherwise cooperate in any way reasonably

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

necessary to restore full unencumbered title in the Collateral to the Issuer or
its designee.

            Section 2.04 Servicer's Accounting. The Servicer shall, in addition
to the bookkeeping required with respect to the Collateral, maintain, as part of
the Collateral servicing data, a separate accounting for the purpose of
justifying any payments made to the Servicer from the Collection Account. The
Servicer agrees to make its accounting hereunder available to the Issuer and the
Noteholders upon request.

            Section 2.05 No Offset. The obligations of the Servicer under this
Agreement shall not be subject to any defense, counterclaim or right of offset
which the Servicer has or may have against the Issuer or the Lender whether in
respect of this Agreement, any Collateral or otherwise.

            Section 2.06 Realization upon Defaulted Collateral. If the Servicer
determines with respect to any element of the Collateral that comes into and
continues in default that the Manager is unable to make satisfactory
arrangements for collection of delinquent payments thereunder pursuant to
Section 2.02(b), the Servicer and the Issuer, upon written directions of the
Lender, shall instruct the Manager to institute legal proceedings for collection
of damages or other appropriate remedies and if the Manager fails to do so
within a reasonable period of time, the Servicer shall undertake such action as
it deems appropriate. In connection with any such proceeding, the Servicer shall
follow such practices and procedures as are normal and consistent with the
Servicer's standards and procedures relating to property similar to such element
of the Collateral. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any right of
the Lender to claim a Default or Event of Default under the Management Agreement
or the Indenture, if applicable, and to proceed thereafter as provided in
Section 8.1 or Section 8.3 thereof, as applicable. All Liquidation Proceeds in
respect of any such Collateral received by the Servicer shall be deposited in
the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt. All
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, payments to
third party professionals, filing fees, etc.) incurred by the Servicer in
connection with the enforcement of Collateral shall be reimbursed to the
Servicer from the Collection Account.

            Section 2.07 Servicing Compensation. As compensation for the
performance of its servicing obligations under this Agreement the Servicer shall
be entitled, subject to Section 5.01 herein, to a servicing fee on each Payment
Date equal to 2.00% of the sum of (i) the amount deposited to the Reserve Fund
pursuant to Section 13.1(a) of the Indenture and (ii) amounts distributed from
the Collection Account pursuant to Section 13.1(b) of the Indenture other than
amounts distributed in accordance with clauses (i), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix)
thereof for the related Collection Period; provided, however, that in no event
shall such

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

amount be less than $1,750 for any Payment Date (the "Servicing Fee"). The
Servicer represents that the Servicing Fee does not exceed the fee that is
customarily paid for similar services. The Servicer shall pay all Servicer
Expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing and administrative
activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement for such
expenses.

                 ARTICLE 3 - ACCOUNTINGS. STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

time, on each Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deliver to Issuer,
the Manager and the Lender the Servicer Report in the form attached as Exhibit A
hereto. If the Issuer, the Manager or the Lender does not timely receive such
Servicer Report, it shall promptly demand delivery thereof from the Servicer and
notify the others of such lack of receipt. The Servicer, on or before the tenth
day prior to the final Payment Date, shall notify the Lender in writing of the
maturity date for the Notes. Such notice shall include a statement that
following the final payment of all principal and accrued interest on the Notes

(30) days thereafter.

Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer and the Lender an Officers' Certificate on
or before the first day of each January, April, July and October of each year
(commencing October 1, 1999) to the effect that (a) a review of the activities
of the Servicer during the quarter-annual period preceding the month in which
such Officer's Certificate is delivered, and, in the case of the Officers'
Certificate delivered on or before each January 1, during the preceding calendar
year, and of its performance under this Agreement during such period has been
made under the supervision of the officers executing such Officers' Certificate
with a view to determining whether during such period the Servicer had performed
and observed all of its obligations under this Agreement, (b) that on the basis
of such review the officers signing such certificate are of the opinion that
during such period the Servicer has supervised the Management Agreement or
serviced the Collateral, as applicable, and the Indenture in compliance with the
procedures hereof except as described in such certificate, and (c) either (i)
stating that based on such review no default of any material nature by the
Servicer under this Agreement has occurred or (ii) if such a default has

statement to the Issuer and the Lender to the effect that (a) such firm has read
the Transaction Documents, (b) has reviewed, in accordance with certain
procedures specified in such certificate or opinion, the records and
calculations set forth in the Servicer Reports delivered by the Servicer during
the reporting period and certain specified documents and records relating to the
servicing of the Collateral and (c) on the basis of such examination, certifies
that:

                  (i) such firm has compared the information contained in the
            Servicer Reports as summarized by the Servicer and the information
            set forth in the Officers' Certificates delivered pursuant to
            Section 3.02 hereof with information contained in the accounts and
            records for the year or the relevant period of the summarized
            information in accordance with the standards established by the
            American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and that the
            information set forth in such Servicer Reports is correct except for
            such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial and such
            other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement; and

                  (ii) the reporting requirements have been completed in
            compliance with the Transaction Documents.

                            ARTICLE 4 - THE SERVICER

            Section 4.01 Corporate Existence; Status as Servicer; Merger.

            (a) The Servicer shall keep in full effect its existence and good
standing as a corporation in its state of incorporation and shall obtain and
preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to enable the
Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement. The Servicer has obtained
all necessary licenses and approvals, in all jurisdictions where the failure to
be so qualified, have such good standing or have such licenses or approvals
would have a material adverse effect on the Servicer's business and operations
or in which the servicing of the Collateral as required herein requires or will
require such qualification.

            (b) The Servicer shall not consolidate with or merge into any other
corporation or convey, transfer or lease substantially all of its assets as an
entirety to any Person, unless the corporation formed by such consolidation or
into which the Servicer has merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance,
transfer or lease substantially all the assets of the Servicer as an entirety,
executes and delivers to the Issuer and the Lender an agreement (the "Successor
Agreement"), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Lender, which contains an assumption by such successor entity of the due

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be
performed or observed by the Servicer under this Agreement. Further, the Issuer
and the Lender shall have received an opinion of counsel from counsel to such
successor entity that the Successor Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and
binding agreement of the successor entity, and is enforceable against it in
accordance with its terms except as such may be limited by the effect of
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other similar
law affecting the rights of creditors generally and general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law).

            (c) Each Transaction Document to which the Servicer is a party has
been duly authorized and, when executed and delivered by the Servicer will
constitute valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Issuer in
accordance with its terms, subject, as to the enforcement of remedies, to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws
affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally applicable in the
event of the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Servicer and to
general principles of equity.

            (d) No event has occurred and is continuing that constitutes, or
with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute a
Default or an Event of Default by the Servicer under, and as defined in, this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Servicer is a party.
Neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Servicer,
the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby nor the satisfaction
of the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents (i) conflicts with or
results in any breach or violation of any provision of the certificate of
incorporation, bylaws or other organizational document of the Servicer or any
law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination
or award currently in effect having applicability to the Servicer or any of its
properties, including regulations issued by an administrative agency or other
governmental authority having supervisory powers over the Servicer or (ii)
constitutes a default by the Servicer under or a breach of any provision of any
indenture, contract, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to
which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties are or may be bound
or affected.

            (e) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is a party
and the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof are legal by the Servicer
and will not (i) conflict with, or result in a breach of any of the provisions
of, or constitute a default under, any of the provisions of any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, contract, agreement, charter instrument, by-law or
other instrument to which the Servicer is a party or by which the Servicer or
its property is bound, (ii)

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any of the properties or
assets of the Servicer pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, contract, agreement, charter instrument, by-law or other
instrument, or (iii) violate any of the provisions of the certificate of
incorporation or bylaws of the Servicer.

            (f) There is no pending action, suit, proceeding or investigation,
including but not limited to any such proceeding or investigation against or
affecting the Servicer before any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or
governmental body which, if decided adversely to the Servicer, would materially
affect (i) the condition (financial or otherwise), business, properties,
prospects, profits or operations of the Servicer, (ii) the ability of the
Servicer to perform its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of,
any Transaction Document to which it is a party or (iii) the Lender's or the
Servicer's ability to foreclose or otherwise enforce their respective interest
in the Collateral as contemplated under the Indenture and this Agreement. The
Servicer is not subject to any order of any court, governmental authority or
agency or arbitration board of tribunal.

            (g) No consent, approval, authorization, order of, or filing,
registration, qualification with any court or other governmental authority in
respect of the Servicer is necessary or required in connection with the
authorization, execution, delivery or performance by the Servicer of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or any of the
other documents or transactions contemplated thereby, including without
limitation, the pledge and assignment of the Collateral to the Lenders, the
servicing of the Collateral, the filing of any appropriate UCC financing
statements or the delivery of the Note.

            (h) The Servicer is not a party to any contract or agreement, or
subject to any charter or other restriction, which materially and adversely
affects its business.

            Section 4.02 Performance of Obligations.

            (a) The Servicer shall punctually perform and observe all of its
obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement. The Issuer will comply
in all material respects with all requirements of law applicable to the Issuer
relating to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the
Notes.

            (b) The Servicer shall not, without the consent of the Issuer and
the Lender, take any action or permit any action to be taken by others, which
would release any Person from any of its covenants or obligations under any
Collateral pledged under the Indenture, or which would result in the amendment,
hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

validity or effectiveness of, any of the Collateral, except as expressly
provided herein and therein.

            (c) The Servicer shall not take any action to seek any decree or
order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of
the Issuer under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar Federal or state law, or to appoint a receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, or sequester (or other similar official) of the
Issuer or of any substantial part of its property, or to order the winding up or
liquidation of its affairs.

            Section 4.03 The Servicer Not To Resign; No Assignment.

            (a) The Servicer shall not resign from the respective duties and
obligations hereby imposed on it except upon a determination by its Board of
Directors that by reason of change in applicable legal requirements the
continued performance by the Servicer of its duties under this Agreement would
cause it to be in violation of such legal requirements (i.e., requirements
pursuant to law or regulation, not contractual), said determination to be
evidenced by a resolution of its Board of Directors to such effect accompanied
by an opinion, reasonably satisfactory to the Lender, of counsel, satisfactory
to the Lender, to such effect.

            (b) The Servicer may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights,
powers, duties or obligations hereunder, provided that the Servicer may assign
this Agreement in connection with a consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer
or lease made in compliance with Section 4.01(b).

            (c) Except as provided in Sections 4.03(a) and 5.01, the duties and
obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement shall continue until this
Agreement shall have been terminated as provided in Section 7.01, and shall
survive the exercise by the Issuer or the Lender of any right or remedy under
this Agreement, or the enforcement by the Issuer or the Lender of any provision
of the Note, the Indenture or this Agreement and prior to the termination of
this Agreement the Servicer shall continue to serve as Servicer hereunder until
such time as a successor shall be appointed and assume the duties of Servicer
hereunder. The Servicer shall, in servicing the Collateral after an Event of
Default under the Indenture (i) promptly report to the Lender any event or
circumstance known to it with respect to the Collateral which may materially and
adversely effect the Collateral or the interests of the Lender therein, (ii)
furnish to the Lender such reports and information with respect to the
Collateral as the Lender may deem reasonably necessary for the Lender to
exercise its rights under the Indenture, and (iii) cooperate with the Lender in
the exercise of its rights under the Indenture, including in the sale or other
disposition of the Collateral.

            Section 4.04 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.
Except as provided in Section 4.05 with respect to the Collateral, the Issuer
and the Lender, none of the shareholders, directors, officers, employees or
agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Collateral, the
Issuer or the Lender for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of
any action taken in good faith pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however,
that this provision shall not protect the Servicer against any liability which
would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder. The Servicer and any
shareholder, director, officer, employee, member, manager or agent of the
Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly
executed and submitted by any Person with respect to any matters arising
hereunder. The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Issuer and the Lender and any
director, officer, employee or agent thereof against any and all losses, claims,
liabilities, suits, damages, proceedings or expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses) arising from or as a result of the Servicer's
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties
hereunder or any representation or warranty of the Servicer herein proving to be
false or materially inaccurate on or as of the date made. The indemnity set
forth in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

            Section 4.05 Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance. The
Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an
errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with responsible
companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting on behalf of the
Servicer in any capacity with regard to the Collateral to handle funds, money,
documents and papers relating to the Collateral. Any such fidelity bond and
errors and omissions insurance shall protect and insure the Servicer against
losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and
negligent acts of such persons and shall be maintained in a form and amount that
would meet the requirements of prudent music royalty servicers. No provision of
this Section 4.05 requiring such fidelity bond and errors and omissions
insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations
as set forth in this Agreement. The Servicer shall be deemed to have complied
with this provision if one of its respective Affiliates has such fidelity bond
and errors and omissions policy coverage and, by the terms of such fidelity bond
and errors and omissions policy, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the
Servicer. The Servicer shall cause each sub-servicer for it to maintain a
fidelity bond which would meet such requirements. The Servicer shall cause to be
delivered to the Issuer and the Lender a certification evidencing coverage under
such fidelity bond and insurance policy which complies with the foregoing. Any
such fidelity bond or insurance policy shall not be canceled or modified in a
materially adverse manner without ten days prior written notice to the Issuer
and the Lender.

Servicer under this Agreement:

            (a) any failure by the Servicer to distribute to the Lender any
payment required to be distributed under the terms of this Agreement which
continues unremedied for a period of two Business Days after the earlier of (i)
the date on which the Servicer shall first have knowledge, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should have knowledge, of such failure or (ii) the date upon
which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall
have been given to the Servicer by the Issuer or the Lender;

            (b) failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform
in any material respect any of the other covenants or agreements on the part of
the Servicer to be performed under this Agreement which failure continues
unremedied for a period of 30 days after the earlier of (i) the date on which
the Servicer shall first have knowledge of such failure or (ii) the date on
which written notice of such failure requiring the same to be remedied, shall
have been given to the Servicer by the Issuer or the Lender;

            (c) the entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having
jurisdiction in respect of the Servicer in an involuntary case under the federal
bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter in effect, or any other present or future
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or appointing a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other
similar official of the Servicer or of any substantial part of its property, or
ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Servicer and the
continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of
90 consecutive days;

            (d) the commencement by the Servicer of a voluntary case under the
federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter in effect, or any other present or

the Servicer to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official
of the Servicer or of any substantial part of its property or the making by the
Servicer of an assignment for the benefit of creditors or the failure by the
Servicer generally to pay its debts as such debts become due or the taking of
corporate action by the Servicer in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

            (e) the commencement by any governmental authority of criminal
proceedings against the Servicer, whether arising out of the performance of its
duties under this Agreement or otherwise.

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

            If an Event of Servicer Termination shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Issuer or the Lender may, by notice given to the Servicer (with
copies to the other party), terminate all of the rights and powers of the
Servicer under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all rights of the
Servicer to receive the Servicing Fee (but not its right to receive
reimbursement for advances made hereunder and not constituting Servicer
Expenses). Upon the giving of such notice, all rights, powers and duties of the
Servicer under this Agreement shall vest in a successor servicer appointed
pursuant to Section 5.02, and the Issuer, the Lender and such successor services
are each hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of the
Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments
and to do or accomplish all other acts or things, necessary or appropriate to
effect such vesting, and the Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Issuer, the
Lender and such successor servicer in effecting the termination of the
Servicer's rights and responsibilities hereunder and shall promptly provide to
the successor servicer all documents and records (electronic and otherwise)
reasonably requested to enable it to assume the servicing functions hereunder,
including the transfer to such successor servicer for administration by it of
all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for
deposit, or shall thereafter be received by it with respect to any of the
Collateral. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees)
incurred in connection with transferring the Collateral to the successor
servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer
pursuant to this Section shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon
presentation of documentation of such costs and expenses. Without limiting the
foregoing, upon one Business Day's prior written notice (which notice need not
be given if an Event of Servicer Termination shall have occurred hereunder or
any such event shall, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, be imminent),
the Servicer shall permit access to the Servicer's offices by the Issuer and the
Lender or any Person appointed pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof for the purpose
of effecting any transfer of servicing contemplated by this Section 5.01.

            Section 5.02 Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the
Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 5.01, a successor
servicer appointed by the Issuer (or if not so appointed within thirty (30) days
of such notice of termination, the Lender shall make such appointment) shall be
the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under
this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall
be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto
placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof provided that (i) any
failure of the successor Servicer to perform such responsibilities or duties
that are caused by the Servicer's failure to provide information or monies
required by Section 5.01 shall not be considered a default by the successor
servicer, and (ii) the successor servicer shall have no liability for actions

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

or inactions of the predecessor Servicer. As compensation therefor the successor
servicer shall be entitled to receive any and all funds which the Servicer would
have been entitled to charge the Collection Account if the predecessor Servicer
had continued to act hereunder, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by the successor servicer in connection with assuming the duties and obligations
of the Servicer hereunder shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer pursuant to
Section 5.01. Notwithstanding the above, if the Servicer shall resign as
provided in Section 4.03, the Issuer shall take such actions as may be necessary
to cause the appointment of a successor servicer. The successor servicer and the
Servicer, as the case may be, shall take such actions, consistent with this
Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Such
successor servicer shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions
hereof. No proposed successor servicer selected by the Issuer shall become the
Servicer hereunder unless and until such proposed successor shall have been
approved in writing by the Lender, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld.

            Section 5.03 Rights Cumulative. All rights and remedies from time to
time enforced upon or reserved to the Issuer or the Noteholders or to any or all
of the foregoing are cumulative, and none is intended to be exclusive of
another. No delay or omission in insisting upon the strict observance or
performance of any provision of this Agreement, or in exercising any right or
remedy, shall be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of such provision, nor
shall it impair such right or remedy. Every right and remedy may be exercised
from time to time and as often as deemed expedient.

              ARTICLE 6 - REPURCHASE OF COLLATERAL BY CAKEWALK LLC

            Section 6.01 Repurchase of Collateral. (a) If at any time the
Issuer, the Servicer or the Lender discovers or is notified in writing by either
of the other parties that any of the representations and warranties of Cakewalk
LLC in the Contribution Agreement was incorrect in any material and adverse
respect at the time as of which such representations and warranties were made,
then the party discovering such defect, omission, or occurrence shall promptly
notify the other parties.

            (b) In the event of any circumstances or conditions described in
Subsection (a) of this Section 6.01, then the Servicer shall, pursuant to this
Agreement, require Cakewalk LLC pursuant to the Contribution Agreement to
eliminate or otherwise cure such circumstance or condition. If Cakewalk LLC
fails or is unable to cure such circumstance or condition in accordance with the
Contribution Agreement, then the Servicer shall pursue indemnification by
Cakewalk LLC under the Contribution Agreement, including, if the Servicer deems
it appropriate, pursuit of a sale of some or all of the Collateral as to which
such

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

representation or warranty is incorrect. Upon deposit by Cakewalk LLC of the
applicable purchase price in the Collection Account, the Lender shall release
the affected Collateral from the lien of the Indenture. The parties hereto agree
that the purchase of such affected Collateral by Cakewalk LLC as provided herein
and in the Contribution Agreement shall constitute the sole remedy of the Lender
with respect to any such breach of a representation or warranty with respect to
the Collateral under the Contribution Agreement.

                      ARTICLE 7 - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

            Section 7.01 Termination of Agreement. Absent a termination pursuant

4.02(c) hereof shall survive for a period of one year and a day from the date on

changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement.

            (b) Promptly after the execution of any amendment, the Servicer
shall send to the Issuer and the Lender a conformed copy of each such amendment,
but the failure to do so shall not impair or affect its validity.

computer records), reports and other papers of the Servicer relating to the
Collateral, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be
audited by independent certified public accountants selected by the
