Filings.  All financing
statements necessary or appropriate to perfect the security interest granted by
each Debtor to the Purchasers hereby in respect of the Collateral, which can be
perfected by the filing of a financing statement, have been filed and the
Security Interest granted to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement in and
to such Collateral constitutes a perfected Security Interest therein (to the

is entitled to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the Uniform
Commercial Code of the State of California to perfected security interests.

will be, the owner of all Collateral pledged by it hereunder free from any
Lien, security interest, encumbrance or other right, title or interest of any
person or entity (other than Permitted Liens), and each Debtor shall defend the
Collateral against all claims and demands of all persons or entities at any
time claiming the same or any interest therein (other than in connection with
Permitted Liens) adverse to the Purchasers.

 

Section 2.3.                                Other
Financing Statements.  To the
best knowledge of each Debtor, as of the date hereof, there is no financing
statement covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the
Collateral (other than financing statements filed in respect of Permitted
Liens), and so long as any Purchaser Obligations or commitments with respect
thereto are outstanding, no Debtor will execute or authorize to be filed in any
public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of
registration under the law of any jurisdiction) or statements relating to the
Collateral, except financing statements filed or to be filed in respect of and
covering the security interests granted hereby by such Debtor or in connection
with Permitted Liens.

and controlled and directed (including, without limitation, for

 

 

general accounting purposes) from, the office locations described above

30 days’ prior written notice of its intention to do so, clearly describing
such new location and providing such other information in connection therewith
as the Purchasers may reasonably request and (b) with respect to such new

Purchasers, to maintain the security interest of the Purchasers in the Collateral

and Equipment (subject to Permitted Liens). 
Each Debtor may establish a new location outside of a jurisdiction in
which it currently does business and with respect to which the Purchasers have
a first perfected security interest in such Inventory and Equipment only if (a) it

of its intention so to do, clearly describing such new location and providing
such other information in connection therewith as the Purchasers may reasonably
request and (b) with respect to such new location, it shall have taken all
action reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasers to maintain the security
interest of the Purchasers in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby at

each Debtor and pursuant to and upon all the warranties, representations,
covenants and agreements on the part of each Debtor contained herein, in the

Each Debtor represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, it is
the true and lawful owner of all right, title and interest to or otherwise has
the right to use the registered Marks listed in Schedule F hereto
and that, as of the date hereof said listed Marks constitute all the marks and
applications for marks registered in the United States Patent and Trademark
Office that such Debtor presently owns or uses in connection with its
business.  Each Debtor represents and warrants
that it owns, is licensed to use or otherwise has the right to use all material
Marks that it uses.  Each Debtor further
warrants that it has no knowledge of any third party claim that any aspect of
such Debtor’s present or contemplated business operations infringes or will
infringe any trademark, service mark or trade name in any respect which could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business,
operations, property, assets, liabilities or condition (financial or otherwise)
of such Debtor.  Each Debtor represents
and warrants that except as listed on Schedule F, as of the date
hereof it is the beneficial and record owner of all trademark registrations and
applications listed in Schedule F hereto and that said
registrations are valid and subsisting, and that no Debtor is aware of any
third-party claim that any of said registrations in respect of any material
Mark is invalid or unenforceable.  Each
Debtor hereby grants to the Purchasers an absolute power of attorney to sign,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any
document which may be required by the United States Patent and Trademark Office
in order to effect an absolute assignment of all right, title and interest in
each Mark, and record the same; provided that such power of attorney may be
exercised only if such Debtor does not have a Senior Lender.

 

 

Section 4.2.                                Infringements.  Each Debtor agrees, promptly upon learning
thereof, to notify the Purchasers in writing of the name and address of, and to
furnish such pertinent information that may be available with respect to, any
party who such Debtor believes is infringing or diluting or otherwise violating
in any material respect any of such Debtor’s rights in and to any material
Mark, or with respect to any party claiming that such Debtor’s use of any
material Mark violates in any material respect any property right of that
party.  Each Debtor further agrees to
prosecute any Person infringing any material Mark in accordance with
commercially reasonable business practices.

 

Section 4.3.                                Preservation
of Marks.  Each Debtor agrees to
use its Marks as required in each of the applicable jurisdictions during the
time in which this Agreement is in effect, sufficiently to preserve such Marks
(and any registrations thereto) as trademarks or service marks under the laws
of the United States and any other applicable law; provided, that, prior
to any Default, no Debtor shall be obligated to preserve any Mark in the event
such Debtor determines, in its commercially reasonable business judgment, that
the preservation of such Mark is no longer desirable in the conduct of its
business.

 

Section 4.4.                                Maintenance
of Registration.  Each Debtor
shall, at its own expense, diligently process all documents required by the
Trademark Act of 1946, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051 et  seq. to maintain
trademark registrations, including but not limited to affidavits of use and
applications for renewals of registration in the United States Patent and
Trademark Office for all of its registered Marks pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §§ 1058(a),
1059 and 1065, and shall pay all fees and disbursements in connection therewith
and shall not abandon any such filing of affidavit of use or any such
application of renewal prior to the exhaustion of all administrative and
judicial remedies without prior written consent of the Purchasers; provided,
that, prior to any Default, no Debtor shall be obligated to maintain any Mark
in the event that such Debtor determines, in its commercially reasonable
business judgment, that the maintenance of such Mark is no longer necessary or
desirable in the conduct of its business.

 

Section 4.5.                                Future
Registered Marks.  If any Mark
registration issues hereafter to a Debtor as a result of any application now or
hereafter pending before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, within
60 days of receipt of such certificate, such Debtor shall deliver to the
Purchasers a copy of such certificate, and an assignment for security in such
Mark, to the Purchasers and at the expense of such Debtor, confirming the
assignment for security in such Mark to the Purchasers hereunder, in such form
as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasers.

 

Section 4.6.                                Remedies.  If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the Purchasers may take any or all of the following actions if such
Debtor does not have a Senior Lender:  (a) declare
the entire right, title and interest of such Debtor in and to each of the
Marks, together with all trademark rights and rights of protection to the same,
vested in the Purchasers for the benefit of the Purchasers, in which event the
rights, title and interest shall immediately vest, in the Purchasers for the
benefit of the Purchasers, and the Purchasers shall be entitled to exercise the
power of attorney referred to in Section 4.1 hereof to execute, cause to
be acknowledged and notarized and record said absolute assignment with the
applicable agency; (b) take and use or sell the Marks and the goodwill of
such Debtor’s business symbolized by the Marks and the right to carry on the
business and use the assets of such Debtor in connection with

 

 

which the Marks have been used; and (c) direct such Debtor to
refrain, in which event such Debtor shall refrain, from using the Marks in any
manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, and, if requested by the Purchasers,
change such Debtor’s corporate name to eliminate therefrom any use of any Mark
and execute such other and further documents that the Purchasers may request to
further confirm this and to transfer ownership of the Marks and registrations
and any pending trademark application in the United States Patent and Trademark
Office to the Purchasers.

 

Section 4.7.                                Collateral
Assignment.  This Agreement is
made for collateral security purposes only. 
This Agreement and Purchasers’ Security Interest in the Marks shall
continue in full force and effect as long as any Obligations shall be owed to
the Purchasers (or any of said Purchasers). 
Upon payment in full of the Obligations and termination of the Purchase
Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and Purchasers shall promptly execute
and deliver to each Debtor, at such Debtor’s expense, all termination
statements and other instruments as may be necessary or proper to terminate
Purchasers’ security interest in the Marks, subject to any disposition thereof
which may have been made by Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or the
Purchase Agreement.

Section 5.1.                                Additional
Representations and Warranties. 
Each Debtor represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, it is
the true and lawful owner of all rights in (a) all material Trade Secrets
and Proprietary Information necessary to operate the business of such Debtor, (b) the
Patents listed in Schedule G hereto for the Debtor and that said
Patents constitute all the patents and applications for patents that the Debtor
owns on the date hereof and (c) the Copyrights listed in Schedule H
hereto and that said Copyrights constitute all registrations of copyrights and
applications for copyright registrations that such Debtor owns on the date
hereof.  Each Debtor further warrants
that it has no knowledge of any third party claim that any aspect of such
Debtor’s present or contemplated business operations infringes or will infringe
any patent or any copyright or such Debtor has misappropriated any Trade Secret
or Proprietary Information, in each case in any respect which could reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations,
property, assets, liabilities or condition (financial or otherwise) of such
Debtor.  Each Debtor hereby grants to the
Purchasers an absolute power of attorney to sign, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, any document which may be
required by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States
Copyright Office in order to effect an absolute assignment of all right, title
and interest in each Patent and Copyright, and to record the same; provided
that such power of attorney may be exercised only if Debtor does not have a
Senior Lender.

 

Section 5.2.                                Infringements.
Each Debtor agrees, promptly upon learning thereof, to furnish the Purchasers
in writing with all pertinent information available to such Debtor with respect
to any infringement, contributing infringement or active inducement to infringe
in any material respect any material Patent or Copyright or to any claim that
the practice of any material Patent or the use of any material Copyright
violates in any material respect any property right of a third party, or with
respect to any misappropriation of any material Trade Secret Right or any

 

 

claim that practice of any material Trade Secret Right violates in any
material respect any property right of a third party.  Each Debtor further agrees, to the extent
consistent with commercially reasonable business practices, to prosecute any
Person infringing any Patent or Copyright or any Person misappropriating any
Trade Secret Right.

 

Section 5.3.                                Maintenance
of Patents.  At its own expense,
each Debtor shall make timely payment of all post-issuance fees required
pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 41 to maintain in force rights under each Patent,
absent prior written consent of the Purchasers; provided, that no Debtor
shall be obligated to maintain any Patent in the event such Debtor determines,
in its commercially reasonable business judgment, that the maintenance of such
Patent is no longer necessary or desirable in the conduct of its business.

 

Section 5.4.                                Prosecution
of Patent Application.  At its
own expense, each Debtor shall diligently prosecute all applications for
Patents for such Debtor and shall not abandon any such application prior to
exhaustion of all administrative and judicial remedies, absent written consent
of the Purchasers; provided, that no Debtor shall be obligated to
prosecute any application in the event such Debtor determines, in its
commercially reasonable business judgment, that the prosecuting of such
application is no longer necessary or desirable in the conduct of its business.

 

Section 5.5.                                Other
Patents and Copyrights.  Within
60 days of the acquisition or issuance of a Patent, registration of a
Copyright, or acquisition of a registered copyright, each Debtor shall deliver
to the Purchasers a copy of said Copyright or certificate or registration of
said Patents, as the case may be, with an assignment for security as to such
Patent or Copyright, as the case may be, to the Purchasers and at the expense
of such Debtor, confirming the assignment for security, in such form as may be
reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasers.

 

Section 5.6.                                Remedies.  If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the Purchasers may take any or all of the following actions if a
Debtor does not have a Senior Lender:  (a) declare
the entire right, title, and interest of such Debtor in each of the Patents and
Copyrights vested in the Purchasers for the benefit of the Purchasers, in which
event such right, title, and interest shall immediately vest in the Purchasers
for the benefit of the Purchasers, in which case the Purchasers shall be
entitled to exercise the power of attorney referred to in Section 5.1
hereof to execute, cause to be acknowledged and notarized and to record said
absolute assignment with the applicable agency; (b) take and practice or
sell the Patents and Copyrights; and (c) direct such Debtor to refrain, in
which event such Debtor shall refrain, from practicing the Patents and using
the Copyrights directly or indirectly, and such Debtor shall execute such other
and further documents as the Purchasers may request further to confirm this and
to transfer ownership of the Patents and Copyrights to the Purchasers for the
benefit of the Purchasers.

of the issuers thereof as set forth thereon owned by the relevant Debtor.  Each Debtor agrees that in the event any such
issuer shall issue any additional capital stock of any series or class (whether
or not entitled to vote) to such Debtor or otherwise on account of its
ownership interest therein, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2(a) above,
such Debtor will forthwith pledge hereunder, or cause to be pledged hereunder,

relevant Debtor to the Purchasers duly endorsed in blank for transfer or

undated stock power or powers, in every case sufficient to transfer title
thereto.  Subject to the rights of the
Senior Lenders, the Purchasers may, at any time after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, cause to be transferred into its name or into the name of its
nominee or nominees any and all of the Pledged Securities.  The Purchasers shall at all times have the
right to exchange the certificates representing the Pledged Securities for
certificates of smaller or larger denominations.

hereunder has occurred and is continuing and thereafter until notified by the
Purchasers hereof:

 

(a)                                  Each
Debtor shall be entitled to exercise all voting and/or consensual powers
pertaining to the Collateral of such Debtor, or any part thereof, for all
purposes not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any other
document evidencing or otherwise relating to any of the Obligations.

 

(b)                                 Each
Debtor shall be entitled to receive and retain all dividends and distributions

pledged under and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

under subsection (b) above, the Agent will, if necessary, upon the
written request of such Debtor, from time to time execute and deliver to such

CONCERNING ALL COLLATERAL

 

Section 7.1.                                Protection
of Purchasers’ Security.  Each
Debtor will at all times keep its Inventory and Equipment insured in favor of
the Purchasers, at such Debtor’s own expense to the extent and in the manner
provided in the Purchase Agreement; all policies or certificates with respect
to such insurance (a) subject to the rights of the Senior Lender, shall be
endorsed to the Purchasers’ commercially reasonable satisfaction for the
benefit of the Purchasers (including, without limitation, by naming the
Purchasers as additional insured and loss payee) and (b) shall state that
such insurance policies shall not be canceled without 30 days’ prior written
notice thereof by the insurer to the Purchasers; and certified copies of such
policies or certificates with respect thereto shall be deposited with the
Purchasers.  If a Debtor shall fail to
insure its Inventory and Equipment in accordance with the preceding sentence,
or if Debtor shall fail to so endorse and deposit all policies or certificates
with respect thereto, the Purchasers shall have the right (but shall be under
no obligation), upon prior written notice to such Debtor, to procure such
insurance and each Debtor agrees to promptly reimburse the Purchasers for all
reasonable costs and expenses of procuring such insurance.  The Purchasers shall, at the time any
proceeds of such insurance are distributed to the Purchasers, apply such proceeds
in accordance with Section 9.4 hereof. 
Each Debtor assumes all liability and responsibility in connection with
the Collateral acquired by it and the liability of such Debtor to pay the
Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the fact
that such Collateral may be lost, destroyed, stolen, damaged or for any reason
whatsoever unavailable to such Debtor.

 

Section 7.2.                                Further
Actions.  Each Debtor will, at
its own expense, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to
the Purchasers from time to time such lists, descriptions and designations of
its Collateral, warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse
receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules,
confirmatory assignments, conveyances, transfer endorsements, powers of
attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take
such further steps relating to the Collateral and other property or rights
covered by the security interest hereby granted, which the Purchasers deem
reasonably appropriate or advisable to perfect, preserve or protect its
security interest in the Collateral.

 

Section 7.3.                                Financing
Statements; Etc.  Each Debtor
agrees to execute and deliver to the Purchasers such further agreements,
assignments, instruments, and documents, and to do all such other things, as
the Purchasers may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to assure the
Purchasers its lien and Security Interest hereunder, including, without
limitation, (i) such

 

 

financing statements or other instruments and documents as the Agent
may from time to time reasonably require to comply with the Uniform Commercial
Code and any other applicable law, (ii) such agreements with respect to patents,
trademarks, copyrights, and similar intellectual property rights as the
Purchasers may from time to time reasonably require to comply with the filing
requirements of the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United
States Copyright Office, and (iii) such control agreements with respect to
Deposit Accounts, Investment Property, Letter of Credit Rights, and electronic
Chattel Paper, and to cause the relevant depository institutions, financial
intermediaries, and issuers to execute and deliver such control agreements, as
the Purchasers may from time to time reasonably require.  Each Debtor hereby agrees that a carbon,
photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any such financing
statement is sufficient for filing as a financing statement by the Purchasers
without notice thereof to such Debtor wherever the Purchasers in their sole
discretion desire to file the same.  Each
Debtor hereby authorizes the Purchasers to file any and all financing
statements covering the Collateral or any part thereof as the Purchasers may
require, including financing statements describing the Collateral as “all
assets” or “all personal property” or words of like meaning.  In the event for any reason the law of any
jurisdiction other than California becomes or is applicable to the Collateral
or any part thereof, or to any of the Obligations, each Debtor agrees to
execute and deliver all such agreements, assignments, instruments, and
documents and to do all such other things as the Purchasers reasonably deem
necessary or appropriate to preserve, protect, and enforce the security
interest of the Purchasers under the law of such other jurisdiction.

GUARANTEE

 

Section 8.1.                                The
Guarantee.  To induce the
Purchasers to enter into the Purchase Agreement and in consideration of
benefits expected to accrue to the Company by reason of the Purchase Agreement
and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Subsidiary hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees
jointly and severally to the Purchasers, the due and punctual payment of all
present and future Obligations, in each case as and when the same shall become
due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise,
according to the terms hereof and thereof (including interest which, but for
the filing of a petition in bankruptcy, would otherwise accrue on any such
indebtedness, obligation, or liability). 
In case of failure by the Company or other obligor punctually to pay any
Obligations guaranteed hereby, the Subsidiary hereby unconditionally agrees to
make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when
the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company or
such obligor.

 

Section 8.2.                                Guarantee
Unconditional.  The obligations
of the Subsidiary under this Article 8 shall be unconditional and absolute
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released,
discharged, or otherwise affected by:

 

(a)                                  any
extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of
any obligation of the Company or other obligor or of any other guarantor under
this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement or by operation of law or otherwise;

 

 

(b)                                 any
modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or the Purchase
Agreement;

 

(c)                                  any
change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of, or any
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceeding affecting,
the Company or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any of their respective
assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Company
or other obligor or of any other guarantor contained in this Agreement or the
Purchase Agreement;

 

(d)                                 the
existence of any claim, set off, or other rights which the Company or other
obligor or any other guarantor may have at any time against the Purchasers or
any other person or entity, whether or not arising in connection herewith;

 

(e)                                  any
failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of,
or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against the Company or other
obligor, any other guarantor, or any other person or entity or property;

 

(f)                                    any
application of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any
obligation of the Company or other obligor, regardless of what obligations of
the Company or other obligor remain unpaid;

 

(g)                                 any
invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Company or other
obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of the
Purchase Agreement or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting
to prohibit the payment by the Company or other obligor or any other guarantor
of the principal of or interest on the Notes or Obligations or any other amount
payable under the Purchase Agreement; or

 

(h)                                 any
other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Purchasers, or any
other person or entity or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for
the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of
the obligations of the Subsidiary under this Article 8.

 

Section 8.3.                                Discharge
Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances.  The Subsidiary’s obligations under this Article 8
shall remain in full force and effect until the Purchase Agreement is
terminated and the principal of and interest on the Notes and all other amounts
payable by the Company under the Purchase Agreement and this Security Agreement
shall have been paid in full.  If at any
time any payment of the principal of or interest on the Notes or any Obligation
or any other amount payable by the Company or other obligor or the Subsidiary
under the Purchase Agreement or this Agreement is rescinded or must be
otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or
reorganization of the Company or other obligor or of any guarantor, or
otherwise, the Subsidiary’s obligations under this Article 8 with respect
to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had
become due but had not been made at such time.

 

Section 8.4.                                Subrogation.  The Subsidiary agrees it will not exercise
any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made
hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations shall have been paid in full
subsequent to the termination of all the Purchase

 

 

Agreement.  If any amount shall
be paid to the Subsidiary on account of such subrogation rights at any time
prior to the later of (x) the payment in full of the Obligations and all other
amounts payable by the Company hereunder and the Purchase Agreement and (y) the
termination of the Purchase Agreement, such amount shall be held in trust for
the benefit of the Purchasers and shall forthwith be paid to the Purchasers or
be credited and applied upon the Obligations.

 

Section 8.5.                                Waivers.  The Subsidiary irrevocably waives acceptance
hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein,
as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the
Purchasers, or any other person or entity against the Company or other obligor,
another guarantor, or any other person or entity.

 

Section 8.6.                                Limit
on Recovery.  Notwithstanding any
other provision hereof, the right of recovery against the Subsidiary under this
Article 8 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would
render such Subsidiary’s obligations under this Article 8 void or voidable
under applicable law, including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance law.

 

Section 8.7.                                Stay
of Acceleration.  If acceleration
of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Company or other obligor
under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, is stayed upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or such obligor, all such amounts
otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the
Purchase Agreement, shall nonetheless be payable by the Subsidiary hereunder
forthwith on demand by the Purchasers.

to Subsidiary.  The Company and
the Subsidiary are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an
extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the Company has a direct
impact on the success of the Subsidiary. 
The Subsidiary will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from
the extensions of credit hereunder.

 

Section 8.9.                                Subsidiary
Covenants.  The Subsidiary shall
take such action as the Company is required by the Purchase Agreement or this
Agreement to cause the Subsidiary to take, and shall refrain from taking such
action as the Company is required by the Purchase Agreement or this Agreement
to prohibit the Subsidiary from taking.

REMEDIES
UPON OCCURRENCE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT

 

Section 9.1.                                Remedies;
Obtaining the Collateral Upon Default. 
Each Debtor agrees that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, then and in every such case, the Purchasers, in addition to any
rights now or hereafter existing under applicable law, shall have all rights as
a secured creditor under the UCC in all relevant jurisdictions subject to the
subordination thereof pursuant to Section 11.10 hereof, and may:

 

(a)                                  personally,
or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any
part thereof, from the Debtors or any other Person who then has possession of
any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose
may enter upon such Debtor’s premises where any of the Collateral is located

 

 

and remove the same and use in connection
with such removal any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of
such Debtor;

 

(b)                                 instruct
the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation
(including, without limitation, the Accounts) constituting the Collateral to
make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other
obligation directly to the Purchasers;

 

(c)                                  withdraw
all monies, securities and instruments in the Cash Collateral Account and/or in
any other cash collateral account for application to the Obligations in
accordance with Section 9.4 hereof;

 

(d)                                 sell,
assign or otherwise liquidate any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof
in accordance with Section 9.2 hereof, or direct such Debtor to sell,
assign or otherwise liquidate any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof,
and, in each case, take possession of the proceeds of any such sale or
liquidation;

 

(e)                                  take
possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing the Debtors in writing
to deliver the same to the Purchasers at any place or places reasonably
designated by the Purchasers, in which event such Debtor shall at its own
expense:

 

(i)                                     forthwith
cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Purchasers
and there delivered to the Purchasers;

 

(ii)                                  store
and keep any Collateral so
delivered to the Purchasers at such place or places pending further action by
the Purchasers as provided in Section 9.2 hereof; and

 

(iii)                               while
the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such guards and maintenance
services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain
them in good condition; and

 

(f)                                    license
or sublicense, whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any Marks,
Patents or Copyrights included in the Collateral for such term and on such
conditions and in such manner as the Purchasers shall in their commercially
reasonable judgment determine;

 

it being understood that each Debtor’s obligation so to deliver the
Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon
application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Purchasers shall be
entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by each Debtor of said
obligation.  The Purchasers agree that
this Agreement may be enforced only by the unanimous action of the Purchasers
and that no individual Purchaser shall have any right individually to seek to
enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it
being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by
the Purchasers for the benefit of the Purchasers upon the terms of this
Agreement.

 

Section 9.2.                                Remedies:
Disposition of the Collateral. 
Any Collateral repossessed by the Purchasers under or pursuant to Section 9.1
hereof and any other Collateral whether or not so

 

 

repossessed by the Purchasers, may be sold, assigned, leased or
otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and
without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be
sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or
places and on such terms as the Purchasers may, in compliance with any
mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially
reasonable.  Any of the Collateral may be
sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same
existed when taken by the Purchasers or after any overhaul or repair at the
expense of each Debtor which the Purchasers shall determine to be commercially
reasonable.  Any such disposition which
shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such
requirements shall be made upon not less than 10 days’ written notice to each
Debtor specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the
intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for
the 10 days after the giving of such notice, to the right of each Debtor or any
nominee of each Debtor to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or for
such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other
consideration so specified, but in no event in an amount greater than the
Obligations then outstanding and provision for any contingent Obligations
reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers. 
Any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by such
requirements shall be made upon not less than 10 days’ written notice to each
Debtor specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of
applicable requirements of law, shall be by public auction (which may, at the
Purchasers’ option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such
auction not less than 10 days prior thereto in two newspapers in general
circulation in Los Angeles, California. 
To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Purchasers
may bid for and become the purchaser of the Collateral or any item thereof,
offered for sale in accordance with this Section without accountability to
the Debtors.  If, under mandatory
requirements of applicable law, the Purchasers shall be required to make
disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the
giving of notice to the Debtors as hereinabove specified, the Purchasers need
give the Debtors only such notice of disposition as shall be reasonably
practicable in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law.

 

Section 9.3.                                Waiver
of Claims.  Except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement or prohibited by applicable law, (a) THE
DEBTORS HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE AND
JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE PURCHASERS’ TAKING POSSESSION OR THE
PURCHASERS’ DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR
REMEDIES AND ANY SUCH RIGHT WHICH SUCH DEBTOR WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE
CONSTITUTION OR ANY STATUTE OF THE UNITED STATES OR OF ANY STATE, (b) the
Debtors hereby further waive, to the extent permitted by law:

 

(i)                                     all
damages occasioned by such taking of possession except any damages which are
determined by a final, non-appealable court order to have been caused by the
Purchasers’ gross negligence or willful misconduct; and

 

(ii)                                  all
other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other
requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Purchasers’ rights
hereunder; and

 

 

(iii)                               all
rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium
now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay
the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any
portion thereof, and each Debtor, for itself and all who may claim under it,
insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit
of all such laws.

 

Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other
realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title,
interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the Debtors therein
and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the
Debtors and against any and all persons or entities claiming or attempting to
claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof,
from, through and under the Debtors.

 

Section 9.4.                                Application
of Proceeds.

 

(a)                                  All
monies collected by the Purchasers upon any sale or other disposition of the
Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the Purchasers
hereunder, shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations.

 

(b)                                 It
is understood and agreed that each Debtor shall remain liable to the extent of
any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral hereunder
and the aggregate amount of the Obligations.

 

Section 9.5.                                Remedies
Cumulative.  Each and every
right, power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Purchasers shall be in
addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given under this
Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity or by statute and each and every right, power and remedy whether
specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to
time or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed
expedient by the Purchasers.  All such
rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the
beginning of the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to
exercise any other or others.  No delay
or omission of the Purchasers in the exercise of any such right, power or
remedy and no renewal or extension of any of the Obligations shall impair any
such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Default
or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. 
No notice to or demand on the Debtors in any case shall entitle it to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or
constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Purchasers to any other or
further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.  In the event that the Purchasers shall bring
any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to
judgment, then in such suit the Purchasers may recover reasonable expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the amounts thereof shall be included
in such judgment.

 

Section 9.6.                                Discontinuance
of Proceedings.  In case the
Purchasers shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or
remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such
proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall
have been determined adversely to the Purchasers, then and in every such case
the Debtors, the Purchasers and each holder of any of the Obligations shall be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the
Collateral subject to

 

 

the Security Interest created under this Agreement, and all rights,
remedies and powers of the Purchasers shall continue as if no such proceeding
had been instituted.
