                                    COVENANTS

          Each Grantor covenants and agrees with the Agent and the Holders that,
from and after the date of this Agreement until the Obligations shall have been
paid in full:

          4.1  Covenants in Purchase Agreement. In the case of each Guarantor,
such Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be,
each action that is necessary to be taken or not taken, as the case may be, so
that no Potential Default or Event of Default is caused by the failure to take
such action or to refrain from taking such action by such Guarantor or any of
its Subsidiaries.

          4.2  Delivery of Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. If any amount
payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become
evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, such Instrument or
Tangible Chattel Paper shall be immediately delivered to the Agent, duly
indorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Agent, to be held as Collateral
pursuant to this Agreement.

          4.3  Electronic Chattel Paper. If such Grantor at any time holds or
acquires an interest in any Electronic Chattel Paper, such Grantor shall
promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the request of the Agent, shall take
such action as the Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Agent control
under Section 9-105 of the New York UCC of such Electronic Chattel Paper.

          4.4  Letter-of-Credit Rights. If such Grantor is at any time a
beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such
Grantor, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the
request and option of the Agent, such Grantor shall, pursuant to an agreement in
form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer
and any confirmer of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the
Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange
for the Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, with
the Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the
Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in the Purchase Agreement.

          4.5  Deposit Accounts. For each Deposit Account that such Grantor at
any time opens or maintains, such Grantor shall, at the Agent's request and
option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
Agent, either (a) cause the depositary bank to agree to comply at any time with
instructions from the Agent to such depositary bank directing the disposition of
funds from time to time credited to such Deposit Account, without further
consent of such Grantor, or (b) arrange for the Agent to become the customer of
the depositary bank with respect to the Deposit Account, with such Grantor being
permitted, only with the written consent of the Agent, to exercise rights to
withdraw funds from such Deposit Account. The provisions of this paragraph shall
not apply to (i) Deposit Accounts for which the Agent is the depositary and (ii)
Deposit Accounts specially and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and
other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of such Grantor's
salaried employees.

          4.6  Commercial Tort Claims. If such Grantor shall at any time hold or
acquire a Commercial Tort Claim, such Grantor shall immediately notify the Agent
in a writing signed by such Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to
the Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds
thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form
and substance satisfactory to the Agent.

          4.7  Collateral in the Possession of a Bailee. If any goods of such
Grantor are at any time in the possession of a bailee, such Grantor shall
promptly notify the Agent thereof and, if requested by the Agent, shall promptly
obtain an acknowledgment from the bailee, in form and substance satisfactory to
the Agent, that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of the Agent.

          4.8  Payment of Obligations. Such Grantor will pay and discharge or
otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they become delinquent, as the
case may be, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed
upon the Collateral or in respect of income or profits therefrom, as well as all
claims of any kind (including, without limitation, claims for labor, materials
and supplies) against or with

respect to the Collateral, except that no such charge need be paid if the amount
or validity thereof is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings, reserves in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been
provided on the books of such Grantor and such proceedings could not reasonably
be expected to result in the sale, forfeiture or loss of any material portion of
the Collateral or any interest therein.

          4.9  Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further
Documentation. (a)  Such Grantor shall maintain the security interest created by

claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

               (b)  Such Grantor will furnish to the Agent and the Holders from
time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the
Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Agent
or any Holder may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

               (c)  At any time and from time to time, upon the written request
of the Agent, and at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will
promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further
instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Agent or any
Holder may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the
full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted,
including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation
statements under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect
in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interests created hereby.

          4.10 Changes in Locations, Name, etc. Such Grantor will not, except
upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Agent and delivery to the Agent of (a)
all additional executed financing statements and other documents as may be
required by applicable law, or as reasonably requested by the Agent, to maintain
the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for
herein and (b) if applicable, a written supplement to Schedule 5 showing any
additional location at which Inventory or Equipment shall be kept:

          (i)  permit any of the Inventory or Equipment to be kept at a location
other than those listed on Schedule 5; or

          (ii) change the location of its chief executive office or sole place
of business from that referred to in Section 3.4 or change its name, type of
organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification
number, identity, legal or corporate structure to such an extent that any
financing statement filed by the Agent or Holders in connection with this
Agreement would become misleading. If such Grantor does not have an
organizational identification number and later obtains one, such Grantor shall
promptly notify the Agent in writing of such organizational identification
number.

          4.11 Notices. Such Grantor will advise the Agent and the Holders
promptly, in reasonable detail, of:

               (a)  any Lien (other than security interests created hereby or
Liens permitted under the Purchase Agreement) on any of the Collateral which
would adversely affect the ability of the Agent to exercise any of its remedies
hereunder; and

               (b)  of the occurrence of any other event which could reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the
Collateral or on the security interests created hereby.

          4.12 Pledged Securities. (a) If such Grantor shall become entitled to
receive or shall receive any stock certificate (including, without limitation,
any certificate representing a stock dividend or a distribution in connection
with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate
issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights in respect of
the Capital Stock of any Issuer, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as
a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of the Pledged Stock, or
otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of
the Agent and the Holders, hold the same in trust for the Agent and the Holders
and deliver the same forthwith to the Agent in the exact form received, duly
indorsed by such Grantor to the Agent, if required, together with an undated
stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and
with signature guaranteed, to be held by the Agent, subject to the terms hereof,
as additional collateral security for the Obligations. Any sums paid upon or in
respect of the Pledged Securities upon the liquidation or dissolution of any
Issuer shall be paid over to the Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional
collateral security for the Obligations, and in case any distribution of capital
shall be made on or in respect of the Pledged Securities or any property shall
be distributed upon or with respect to the Pledged Securities pursuant to the
recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any Issuer or pursuant to
the reorganization thereof, the property so distributed shall, unless otherwise
subject to a perfected security interest in favor of the Agent, be delivered to
the Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the
Obligations. If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect
of the Pledged Securities shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall,
until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Agent, hold such money
or property in trust for the Holders, segregated from other funds of such
Grantor, as additional collateral security for the Obligations.

               (b)  Without the prior written consent of the Agent, such Grantor
will not (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any Issuer to
issue any stock or other equity securities of any nature or to issue any other
securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for
any stock or other equity securities of any nature of any Issuer, (ii) sell,
assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with
respect to, the Pledged Securities or Proceeds thereof (except pursuant to a
transaction expressly permitted by the Purchase Agreement), (iii) create, incur
or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person
with respect to, any of the Pledged Securities or Proceeds thereof, or any

(iv) enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of
such Grantor or the Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged
Securities or Proceeds thereof.

licensees) will (i) continue to use each material Trademark on each and every
trademark class of goods applicable to its current line as reflected in its
current catalogs, brochures and price lists in order to maintain such Trademark

do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such Trademark may become
invalidated or impaired in any way.

               (b)  Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not

employ each material Copyright and (ii) will not (and will not permit any
licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act

                                                                              15

immediately if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or
registration relating to any material Intellectual Property may become
forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination
or development (including, without limitation, the institution of, or any such
determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and
Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in
any country) regarding such Grantor's ownership of, or the validity of, any
material Intellectual Property or such Grantor's right to register the same or
to own and maintain the same.

               (f)  Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any
agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the

Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or
agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor
shall report such filing in writing to the Agent within five Business Days after

the Agent, such Grantor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and
all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as may be required by
applicable law or as the Agent or any Holder may request to evidence the Agent's
and the Holders' security interest in any Copyright, Patent or Trademark and the
goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented
thereby.

               (g)  Such Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps,
including, without limitation, in any proceeding before the United States Patent
and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office
or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain

without limitation, filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and
affidavits of incontestability.

               (h)  In the event that any material Intellectual Property is
infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall (i)
take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the
circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such
Intellectual Property is of material economic value, promptly notify the Agent
after it learns thereof and sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution,

                                   SECTION 5.

                               REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

          5.1  Certain Matters Relating to Receivables. (a) The Agent shall have
the right to make test verifications of the Receivables in a reasonable manner
and upon prior notice to the Company, and each Grantor shall furnish all such
assistance and information as the Agent may reasonably require in connection
with such test verifications. At any time and from time to time, upon the
Agent's request, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or
others satisfactory to the Agent to furnish to the Agent reports showing
reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the
Receivables. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, such reports shall
be at the expense of the Holders. At any time after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, such reports shall be at the expense of
the relevant Grantor.

               (b)  Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Grantor
shall be authorized to collect such Grantor's Receivables. At any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may
curtail or terminate said authority. If required by the Agent at any time after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments
of Receivables, when

<PAGE>

                                                                              17

collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two
Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly
indorsed by such Grantor to the Agent if required, in a Collateral Account
maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Agent, subject to
withdrawal by the Agent for the account of the Holders only as provided in
Section 5.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in
trust for the Agent and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such
Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a
report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments
included in the deposit.

               (c)  At the Agent's reasonable request, each Grantor shall
deliver to the Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating
to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables,
including, without limitation, all original orders, invoices and shipping
receipts.

          5.2  Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) The
Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time communicate with
obligors under the Receivables and parties to Contracts to verify with them to
the Agent's satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables or
Contracts. Such communications shall be in a reasonable manner and upon notice
by the Agent to the relevant Grantor.

               (b)  Upon the request of the Agent at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall
notify obligors on the Receivables and parties to Contracts that the Receivables
and the Contracts have been assigned to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Holders and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the
Agent.

               (c)  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each
Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables and Contracts to
observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and
performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement
giving rise thereto. Neither the Agent nor any Holder shall have any obligation
or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or
Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the
Agent or any Holder of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Agent or any
Holder be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any
Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise
thereto) or Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature
or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any
performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any
action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which
may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or
times.

          5.3  Pledged Stock. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing and the Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor
of the Agent's intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section
5.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends paid in
respect of the Pledged

<PAGE>

                                                                              18

Stock and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, in each case paid
in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuer and consistent with past
practice, to the extent permitted in the Purchase Agreement, and to exercise all
voting and corporate rights with respect to the Pledged Securities; provided,
however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate right exercised or other action
taken which, in the Agent's reasonable judgment, would impair the Collateral or
which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of
the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any Other Agreement.

               (b)  If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the
Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant
Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Agent shall have the right to receive any and all
cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged
Securities and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as the
Agent may determine, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Securities shall be
registered in the name of the Agent or its nominee, and the Agent or its nominee
may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to
such Pledged Securities at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or
Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and
subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such
Pledged Securities as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without
limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged
Securities upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or
other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any Issuer, or upon the
exercise by any Grantor or the Agent of any right, privilege or option
pertaining to such Pledged Securities, and in connection therewith, the right to
deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Securities with any committee,
depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms
and conditions as the Agent may determine), all without liability except to
account for property actually received by it, but the Agent shall have no duty
to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be
responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

               (c)  Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of
any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any
instruction received by it from the Agent in writing that (x) states that an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further
instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall
be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly
permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the
Pledged Securities directly to the Agent.

          5.4  Proceeds to be Turned Over to Agent. In addition to the rights of
the Agent and the Holders specified in Section 5.1 with respect to payments of
Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds
received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items
shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Agent and the Holders, segregated
from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such
Grantor, be turned over to the Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor
(duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Agent, if

<PAGE>

                                                                              19

required to enable the Agent to transfer title to such Proceeds). All Proceeds
received by the Agent hereunder shall be held by the Agent in a Collateral
Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held
by the Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Agent
and the Holders) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the
Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided
in Section 5.5.

          5.5  Application of Proceeds. At such intervals as may be agreed upon
by the Company and the Agent, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, at any time at the Agent's election, the Agent may apply all or
any part of Proceeds held in any Collateral Account in payment of the
Obligations in such order as the Agent may elect (it being acknowledged that
Agent shall first apply such Proceeds to reimburse the Agent for its reasonable
expenses of collection and other amounts due to Agent hereunder before payment
to Holders), and any part of such funds which the Agent elects not so to apply
and deems not required as collateral security for the Obligations shall be paid
over from time to time by the Agent to the Company or to whomsoever may be
lawfully entitled to receive the same. Any balance of such Proceeds remaining
after the Obligations shall have been paid in full shall be paid over to the
Company or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

          5.6  Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and
be continuing, the Agent, on behalf of the Holders, may exercise, in addition to
all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other
instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all
rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC or any other
applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent,
without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred
to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which
demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such
circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give
option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the
Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one
or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's
board or office of the Agent or any Holder or elsewhere upon such terms and
conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for
cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.
The Agent or any Holder shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales,
and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to
purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or
equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and
released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Agent's request, to assemble the
Collateral and make it available to the Agent at places which the Agent shall
reasonably select, whether at such Grantor's premises or elsewhere. The Agent
shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section
5.6, after deducting its reasonable expenses of collection, amounts due to it
hereunder, all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in
connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the
Collateral or in

<PAGE>

                                                                              20

any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Agent and the Holders
hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such
order as the Agent may elect, and only after such application and after the
payment by the Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law,
including, without limitation, Section 9-608(a)(1)(C) of the New York UCC, need
the Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands
it may acquire against the Agent or any Holder arising out of the exercise by
them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other
disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed
reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other
disposition.

          5.7  Registration Rights. (a) If the Agent shall determine to exercise
its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 5.6, and
if in the opinion of the Agent it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged
Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of
the Securities Act, the relevant Grantor will cause the Issuer thereof to (i)
execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to
execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be
done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Agent, necessary or
advisable to register the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold,
under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) cause the registration
statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a
period of one year from the date of the first public offering of the Pledged
Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto
and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Agent, are
necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to cause such Issuer to
comply with the provisions of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of any and all
jurisdictions which the Agent shall designate and to make available to its
security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not
be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities
Act.

               (b)  Each Grantor recognizes that the Agent may be unable to
effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales
thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree,
among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for
investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each
Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices
and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and,
notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be
deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Agent shall be
under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period
of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for
public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws,
even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

                                                                              21

               (c)  Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause
to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of
all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 5.7 valid and
binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law.
Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in
this Section 5.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Agent and the Holders,
that the Agent and the Holders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such
breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this
Section 5.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such
Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action
for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of
Default has occurred under the Purchase Agreement.

          5.8  Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency
if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are
insufficient to pay its Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any
attorneys employed by the Agent or any Holder to collect such deficiency.

                                   SECTION 6.

                                    THE AGENT

          6.1  Agent's Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each Grantor
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Agent and any officer or agent
thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and
stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for
the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all
appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which
may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the
Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or
assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following (but without any
obligation to do so except at the direction of the Requisite Holders):

                    (i)   in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or
     otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts,
     notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under
     any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral and file
     any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or
     equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Agent for the purpose of
     collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or
     with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

                    (ii)  in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and
     deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents
     and papers as the Agent may request to evidence the Agent's and the
     Holders'

<PAGE>

                                                                              22

     security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and
     general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented
     thereby;

                    (iii)  pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on
     or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance
     called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the
     premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

                    (iv)   execute, in connection with any sale provided for in
     Section 5.6 or 5.7, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of
     conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral;

                    (v)    direct any party liable for any payment under any of
     the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due
     thereunder directly to the Agent or as the Agent shall direct;

                    (vi)   ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of
     and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to
     become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;

                    (vii)  sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express
     bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against
     debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in
     connection with any of the Collateral;

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

                    (ix)   defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against
     such Grantor with respect to any Collateral;

                    (x)    settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or
     proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases
     as the Agent may deem appropriate;

                    (xi)   assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with
     the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or
     Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such
     conditions, and in such manner, as the Agent shall in its sole discretion
     determine;

                    (xii)  generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any
     agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as
     fully and completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner thereof
     for all purposes; and

<PAGE>

                                                                              23

                    (xiii) do, at the Agent's option and such Grantor's expense,
     at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Agent
     deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the
     Agent's and the Holders' security interests therein and to effect the
     intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor
     might do.

          Anything in this Section 6.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney
provided for in this Section 6.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing.

               (b)  If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its
agreements contained herein, the Agent, at its option, but without any
obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or
compliance, with such agreement.

               (c)  The expenses of the Agent incurred in connection with
actions undertaken as provided in this Section 6.1, together with interest
thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum at which interest would
then be payable on amounts past due under the Purchase Agreement, from the date
of payment by the Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be
payable by such Grantor to the Agent on demand.

               (d)  Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and
agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are
irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests
created hereby are released.

          6.2  Duty of Agent. The Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody,
safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under
Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the
same manner as the Agent deals with similar property for its own account.
Neither the Agent, any Holder nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize
upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any
obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of
any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with
regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Agent
and the Holders hereunder are solely to protect the Agent's and the Holders'
interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Agent or any
Holder to exercise any such powers. The Agent and the Holders shall be
accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the
exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure
to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

          6.3  Execution of Financing Statements. Each Grantor authorizes the
Agent at any time and from time to time to file or record any initial financing
statements and amendments thereto describing the Collateral and other filing or
recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the
signature of such

<PAGE>

                                                                              24

Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Agent reasonably determines
appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Agent under this Agreement.
A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a
financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for
filing or recording in any jurisdiction.

          6.4  Authority of Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and
responsibilities of the Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action
taken by the Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Agent of any option,
voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or
resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Agent and the
Holders, be governed by Section 6 of this Agreement and by such other agreements
with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between
the Agent and the Grantors, the Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be
acting as agent for the Holders with full and valid authority so to act or
refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or
entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

          6.5  Appointment of Agent. Agent is hereby appointed by the Holders as
their collateral agent hereunder, and the Agent hereby agrees to act as their
collateral agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to take such action on
the Holders' behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and to exercise such
powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the
terms of this Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in
the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or in any Other Agreement, the Agent
shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth
herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Holder, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any Other Agreement or otherwise
exist against the Agent.

          6.6  Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be
entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

          6.7  Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be
(i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such
Person under or in connection with the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any
Other Agreement (except for its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Holders for any
recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Grantor or any
officer thereof contained in the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any Other
Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to
or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, the
Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any Other Agreement or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of the
Purchase

<PAGE>

                                                                              25

Agreement, this Agreement or any Other Agreement or for any failure of any
Grantor to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not
be under any obligation to any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance by any Grantor or any Holder of any of the agreements
contained in, or conditions of, the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any
Other Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company.

          6.8  Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall
be fully protected in relying, upon any Senior Note, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype
message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without
limitation, counsel to the Company), independent accountants and other experts
selected by the Agent. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Senior Note
as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment,
negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agent. The Agent
shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under the
Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any Other Agreement unless it shall first
receive such direction, advice or concurrence of the Requisite Holders as it
deems appropriate and it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the
Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by
reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under the
Purchase Agreement, this Agreement and the Other Agreements in accordance with a
direction or request of the Requisite Holders, and such direction or request and
any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all
the Holders and all future holders of the Senior Notes. Before the Agent is
required to confirm whether any matter is satisfactory to it hereunder, or
provide its consent hereunder, the Agent may, at its option, seek the advice and
direction of the Requisite Holders.

          6.9  Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have
knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of
Default hereunder unless the Agent has received written notice from a Holder or
the Company referring to the Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, describing
such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
"notice of default". In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the
Agent shall give notice thereof to the Holders. The Agent shall take such action
with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default as shall be
reasonably directed in writing by the Requisite Holders; provided that unless
and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default, as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of the Holders.

          6.10 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Holders. Each Holder expressly
acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations
or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including
any review of the affairs of the Company,

<PAGE>

                                                                              26

shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any
Holder. Each Holder represents to the Agent that it has, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent or any other Holder, and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Company and made its own decision to
purchase the Senior Notes under the Purchase Agreement and enter into the
Purchase Agreement. Each Holder also represents that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent or any other Holder, and based on such documents
and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its
own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the Other Agreements, and to
make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the
business, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Company. Except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly required to be furnished to the Holders by the Agent hereunder, the
Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Holder with any
credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property,
condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Company
which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

          6.11 Indemnification. The Holders agree to indemnify the Agent in its
capacity as such (to the extent not previously reimbursed or otherwise
indemnified by the Grantors and without limiting the obligation of the Grantors
to do so), ratably from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without
limitation, at any time following the payment of the Senior Notes) be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising
out of, this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any of the Other Agreements or
any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by
the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no
Holder shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the resignation or
removal of the Agent, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Senior Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Purchase
Agreement.

          6.12 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates
may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of
business with the Company as though the Agent were not the Agent hereunder. With
respect to the Senior Notes purchased by it, the Agent shall have the same
rights and powers under this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the Other
Agreements as any Holder and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Agent, and the terms "Holder" and "Holders" shall include the Agent in its
individual capacity.

<PAGE>

                                                                              27

          6.13 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days'
notice to the Holders or the Requisite Holders may remove the Agent upon the
giving of 30 days notice to the Agent. If the Agent shall resign or be removed
as Agent under this Agreement, then the Requisite Holders shall appoint a
successor collateral agent for the Holders, which successor agent (provided that
it shall have been approved by the Company), shall succeed to the rights, powers
and duties of the Agent hereunder. Effective upon such appointment and approval,
the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent, and the former Agent's rights,
powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act
or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement
or any Holders, other then delivery of the Collateral to the successor agent.
After any retiring Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section
6 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

          6.14 Agent's Expenses. Where the Agent is entitled to reimbursement or
deduction of costs and expenses under this Agreement, it shall provide
reasonable written documentation to Holders to evidence such expenses.

                                   SECTION 7.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

          7.1  Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this
Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a
written instrument executed by each affected Grantor and the Agent, provided
that any provision of this Agreement imposing obligations on any Grantor may be
waived by the Agent (with the prior written consent of Requisite Holders) in a
written instrument executed by the Agent. Section 6 of this Agreement may not be
waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written
instrument executed by Requisite Holders and the Agent.

          7.2  Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Agent,
Holders or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in
subsection 12.3 of the Purchase Agreement; provided that any such notice,
request or demand to or upon the Agent or any Guarantor shall be addressed to
the Agent or such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

          7.3  No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the
Agent nor any Holder shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant
to Section 7.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have
waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Potential
Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in
exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Holder, any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
A

                                                                              28

waiver by the Agent or any Holder of any right or remedy hereunder on any one
occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Agent
or such Holder would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and
remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently
and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

          7.4  Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Grantor agrees to
pay or reimburse each Holder and the Agent for all its costs and expenses
incurred in enforcing or preserving any rights under the Purchase Agreement,
this Agreement and the Other Agreements to which such Grantor is a party,
including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of the Agent, of
counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each
Holder and of counsel to the Agent.

               (b)  Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Agent and the
Holders harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting
from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which
may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral
or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

               (c)  Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Agent and the
Holders harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and
disbursements of counsel) with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Company would
be required to do so pursuant to subsections 12.2 and 12.4 of the Purchase
Agreement.

               (d)  The Grantors agree to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as
such, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any
kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of
counsel) which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time
following the payment of the Senior Notes) be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, this
Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any of the Other Agreements or any
documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under
or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Grantor shall be
liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

               (e)  The agreements in this Section 7.4 shall survive the

repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Purchase
Agreement and the Other Agreements.

          7.5  Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
respective successors and assigns of each Grantor, Agent and each Holder;
provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent

Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor, to set-off and
appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or
claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Agent or such
Holder to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor, or any part thereof

hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Agent or such Holder
against such Grantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the
Purchase Agreement, any Other Agreement or otherwise, as the Agent or such

payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent
or unmatured. The Agent and each Holder shall notify such Grantor promptly of
any such set-off and the application made by the Agent or such Holder of the
proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect
the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Agent and each
Holder under this Section 7.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Agent or such
Holder may have.

constitute one and the same instrument.

          7.8  Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited

unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

at its address referred to in Section 7.2 or at such other address of which the
Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

               (d)  agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect

               (e)  waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any

                                    GUARANTY

     This GUARANTY (this "Guaranty"), dated as of May 30, 2002, is made and
given by [Name of Subsidiary], a ___________________ (the "Guarantor"), in favor
of each Holder (as such term is defined in the Senior Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement, dated as of May 29, 2002, by and between Cardiac Science, Inc. (the
"Company") and the purchasers named therein (the "Purchase Agreement")).

     Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in
the Purchase Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein.

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers have agreed to
purchase the Senior Notes and Warrants;

     WHEREAS, in order to induce the Purchasers to (i) enter into the Purchase
Agreement and the Other Agreements and (ii) purchase the Senior Notes and the
Warrants as provided for in the Purchase Agreement, Guarantor has agreed to
guarantee payment of the Obligations upon the terms, and subject to the
conditions set forth herein;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants
hereinafter contained, and to induce the Purchasers, it is agreed as follows:

1.   DEFINITIONS.

     "Obligations" means the unpaid principal of, and interest and premiums on,
the Senior Notes and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company
(including, without limitation, interest accruing at the then applicable rate
provided in the Purchase Agreement after the maturity of the Senior Notes and
interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Purchase Agreement
after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any
insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company, whether
or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such
proceeding) to any Holder, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent,
due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter incurred, which may arise
under or out of the Purchase Agreement, this Guaranty and the Other Agreements
entered into by the Company with any Holder or any other document made,
delivered or given in connection therewith, in each case whether on account of
principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, fees, indemnities, costs,
expenses or otherwise (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel to the Holders that are required to be paid by the
Company pursuant to the terms of any of the foregoing agreements).

     References to this "Guaranty" shall mean this Guaranty, including all
amendments, modifications and supplements and any annexes, exhibits and
schedules to any of the foregoing, and shall refer to this Guaranty as the same
may be in effect at the time such reference becomes operative.

<PAGE>

2.   THE GUARANTY.

     2.1  Guaranty of Obligations. Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees
to each Holder, and their respective successors, endorsees, transferees and
assigns, the prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) and performance of the Obligations of the Company (hereinafter the
"Guaranteed Obligations"). Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is a guaranty of
payment and performance and not of collection, and that its obligations under
this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and
unaffected by:

         (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future
amendment of, or change in this Guaranty, the Purchase Agreement, any of the
Other Agreements or any other agreement, document or instrument to which
Guarantor or the Company is or may become a party;

         (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Guaranty, the Purchase
Agreement or any of the Other Agreements or the waiver or consent by a Holder
with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

         (c) the insolvency of Guarantor or the Company; or

         (d) any other action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute
a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor;

it being agreed by Guarantor that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not
be discharged until all the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full. Guarantor
shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with
respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor agrees that any notice or
directive given at any time to a Holder which is inconsistent with the waiver in
the immediately preceding sentence shall be null and void and may be ignored by
each Holder, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or introduced as evidence in
any litigation relating to this Guaranty for the reason that such pleading or
introduction would be at variance with the written terms of this Guaranty,
unless each of the Holders have specifically agreed otherwise in writing. It is
agreed among Guarantor and the Holders that the foregoing waivers are of the
essence of the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or Other
Agreements and that, but for this Guaranty and such waivers, the Purchasers
would decline to enter into the Purchase Agreement.

     Anything herein or in the Purchase Agreement or in any Other Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of Guarantor hereunder shall
in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by Guarantor under
applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors.
Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time
exceed the amount of the liability of Guarantor hereunder without impairing the
guarantee contained herein or affecting the rights and remedies of any Holder
hereunder.

     2.2  Demand by Holders. In addition to the terms of the Guaranty set forth
in Section 2.1 hereof, and in no manner imposing any limitation on such terms,
it is expressly understood and agreed that, if, at any time, the outstanding
principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations under the Purchase Agreement
(including all accrued interest thereon) is declared to be immediately due and
payable, then Guarantor shall, without demand, pay to each Holder the entire
outstanding Guaranteed Obligations due and owing to such Holders. Payment by
Guarantor shall be made to the Holders in immediately available funds to an
account, designated by the Holders or at the address set forth

                                       2

<PAGE>

herein for the giving of notice to the Holders or at any other address that may
be specified in writing from time to time by the Holders, and shall be credited
and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations.

     2.3  Enforcement of Guaranty. In no event shall a Holder have any
obligation (although it is entitled, at its option) to proceed against the
Company or any other Subsidiary thereof before seeking satisfaction from
Guarantor.

     2.4  Waiver. In addition to the waivers contained in Section 2.1 hereof,
Guarantor waives and agrees that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead or
in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal,
valuation, stay, extension, marshaling of assets or redemption laws, or
exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay,
prevent or otherwise affect the performance by Guarantor of its Guaranteed
Obligations under, or the enforcement by the Holders of, this Guaranty.
Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment and demand (whether for
non-payment or protest or of acceptance, maturity, extension of time, change in
nature or form of the Guaranteed Obligations, acceptance of further security,
release of further security, composition or agreement arrived at as to the
amount of, or the terms of, the Guaranteed Obligations, notice of adverse change
in the Company's financial condition or any other fact which might increase the
risk to Guarantor) with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations or all
other demands whatsoever and waives the benefit of all provisions of law which
are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor
represents, warrants and agrees that, as of the date of this Guaranty, its
obligations under this Guaranty are not subject to any offsets or defenses
against the Holders, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof of any kind.
Guarantor further agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not be
subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses against the Holders, the
Company or any Subsidiary thereof of any kind which may arise in the future.

     2.5  Benefit of Guaranty. The provisions of this Guaranty are for the
benefit of the Holders and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees
and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any Holder,
on the one hand, and the Guarantor or the Company, on the other hand, the
obligations of the Company under the Purchase Agreement or any of the Other
Agreements. In the event all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations are
transferred, indorsed or assigned by any Holder to any Person or Persons, any
reference to "Holder" herein shall be deemed to refer equally to such Person or
Persons.

     2.6  Modification of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc. Guarantor hereby
acknowledges and agrees that each Holder may at any time or from time to time,
with or without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor, pursuant to the terms
of such Holder's then existing agreements with the Company:

         (a) change or extend the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renew
or alter all or any portion of, the Guaranteed Obligations;

         (b) take any action under or in respect of the Purchase Agreement or
any of the Other Agreements in the exercise of any remedy, power or privilege
contained therein or available to it at law, equity or otherwise, or waive or
refrain from exercising any such remedies, powers or privileges;

         (c) amend or modify, in any manner whatsoever, the Purchase Agreement
or any of the Other Agreements in accordance with their terms;

                                       3

<PAGE>

         (d) extend or waive the time for the Guarantor's or the Company's
performance of, or compliance with, any term, covenant or agreement on its part
to be performed or observed under the Purchase Agreement or any of the Other
Agreements, or waive such performance or compliance or consent to a failure of,
or departure from, such performance or compliance;

         (e) release anyone who may be liable in any manner for the payment of
any amounts owed by Guarantor or the Company to any Holder;

         (f) modify or terminate the terms of any intercreditor or subordination
agreement pursuant to which claims of other creditors of the Guarantor or the
Company are subordinated to the claims of the Holders; and/or

         (g) apply any sums by whomever paid or however realized to any amounts
owing by Guarantor or the Company to any Holder in such manner as such Holder
shall determine in its discretion;

and the Holders shall not incur any liability to Guarantor as a result thereof,
and no such action shall impair or release the Guaranteed Obligations of
Guarantor under this Guaranty.

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

     2.8  Deferral of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Guaranty, the Purchase Agreement or any of the Other Agreements,
Guarantor hereby:

         (a) expressly and irrevocably waives, on behalf of itself and its
successors and assigns (including any surety) until all Guaranteed Obligations
have been paid in full, any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation,
to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to indemnification, to set
off or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to
a guarantor against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to
an accommodation party against the party accommodated, to a holder or transferee
against a maker, or to the holder of any claim against any Person, and which
Guarantor may have or hereafter acquire against the Company in connection with
or as a result of Guarantor's execution, delivery and/or performance of this
Guaranty, or any other documents to which Guarantor is a party or otherwise; and

         (b) acknowledges and agrees (i) that this waiver is intended to benefit
each Holder and shall not limit or otherwise effect Guarantor's liability
hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and (ii) that each Holder and
their respective successors and assigns are intended third

and their rights under this Section 2.8 shall survive payment in full of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

3.   FURTHER ASSURANCES.

     Guarantor hereby agrees, upon the written request of any Holder, to execute
and deliver to such Holder, from time to time, any additional instruments or
documents reasonably considered necessary by such Holder to cause this Guaranty
to be, become or remain valid and effective in accordance with its terms.

4.   OTHER TERMS.

     4.1  Entire Agreement. This Guaranty, together with the Purchase Agreement
and the Other Agreements, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements
relating to a guaranty of the loans and advances under the Purchase Agreement
and the Other Agreements and/or the Guaranteed Obligations.

     4.2  Headings. The headings in this Guaranty are for convenience of
reference only and are not part of the substance of this Guaranty.

     4.3  Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall
be interpreted in such a manner to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty.

     4.4  Notices. Whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand,
request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be
given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any
of the parties desires to give or serve upon another any such communication with
respect to this Guaranty, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval,
declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be addressed to
the party to be notified as follows:

         (a) If to [Name of Subsidiary], at:

             [                        ]

         (b) If to any Holder, at the address of such Holder specified in the
Purchase Agreement,

or at such other address as may be substituted by notice given as herein
provided. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing
by the party entitled to receive such notice. Every notice, demand, request,
consent, approval, declaration or other communication hereunder shall be deemed
to have been validly served, given or delivered (i) upon the earlier of actual
receipt and five (5) Business Days after the same shall have been deposited with
the United States mail, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
with proper postage prepaid, (ii) upon transmission, when sent by telecopy or
other similar facsimile transmission (with such telecopy or facsimile promptly
confirmed by delivery of a copy by personal delivery or United States mail as
otherwise provided in this Section 4.4), (iii) one (1) Business Day after
deposit with a reputable overnight carrier with all charges prepaid, or (iv)
when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger.

     4.5  Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty and all obligations of Guarantor
hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Guarantor
(including a debtor-in-possession on behalf of Guarantor) and shall, together
with the rights and remedies of the Holders, hereunder, inure to the benefit of
each Holder, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the
Obligations and their respective successors and assigns. Guarantor may not
assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation
under this Guaranty.

     4.6  No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Amendments. No Holder shall by any
act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or
remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by
all Holders and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by any
Holder of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Holders would otherwise have
had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising
on the part of the Holders of any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and
remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or
concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.
None of the terms or provisions of this Guaranty may be waived, altered,
modified, supplemented or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly
executed by the Holders and Guarantor.

     4.7  Termination. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain
in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in
full. Upon payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, each
Holder shall deliver to Guarantor such documents as Guarantor may reasonably
request to evidence such termination.

     4.8  Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one and
the same agreement.

     4.9  Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made
and to be performed entirely within such State.
