<PAGE>

                                      -3-

          Borrower possesses, uses or has authority to possess or use property
          (whether tangible or intangible) of others or others possess, use or
          have authority to possess or use property (whether tangible or
          intangible) of the Borrower, and all recorded data of any kind or
          nature, regardless of the medium of recording including, without
          limitation, all software, writings, plans, specifications and
          schematics.

          2.2. Delivery of Instruments, etc.
               ----------------------------

               (a) Pursuant to the terms hereof, the Borrower has endorsed,
          assigned and delivered to the Agent all negotiable or non-negotiable
          instruments, certificated securities and chattel paper pledged by it
          hereunder, together with instruments of transfer or assignment duly
          executed in blank as the Agent may have specified.  In the event that
          the Borrower shall, after the date of this Agreement, acquire any
          other negotiable or non-negotiable instruments, certificated
          securities or chattel paper to be pledged by it hereunder, the
          Borrower shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the
          Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly
          executed in blank as the Agent may from time to time specify.

               (b) To the extent that any securities now or hereafter acquired
          by the Borrower are uncertificated and are issued to the Borrower or
          its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, the Borrower shall cause
          the issuer to note on its books the security interest of the Agent in
          such securities and shall cause the issuer, pursuant to an agreement
          in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, to agree to comply
          with instructions from the Agent as to such securities, without
          further consent of the Borrower or such nominee.  To the extent that
          any securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other
          investment property now or hereafter acquired by the Borrower are held
          by the Borrower or its nominee through a securities intermediary or
          commodity intermediary, the Borrower shall, at the request of the
          Agent, use reasonable efforts to cause such securities intermediary or
          (as the case may be) commodity intermediary, pursuant to an agreement
          in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, to agree to comply
          with entitlement orders or other instructions from the Agent to such
          securities intermediary as to such securities or other investment
          property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on
          account of any commodity contract as directed by the Agent to such
          commodity intermediary, without further consent of the Borrower or
          such nominee.  The Agent agrees with the Borrower that the Agent shall
          not give any such entitlement orders or instructions or directions to
          any such issuer, securities intermediary or commodity intermediary
          unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
          Agent has elected to exercise its rights and remedies as contemplated
          by (S)14.

                                      -4-

               (c) To the extent that the Borrower is a beneficiary under any
          written letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of the
          Borrower, the Borrower shall deliver such letter of credit to the
          Agent.  The Agent shall from time to time, at the request and expense
          of the Borrower, make such arrangements with the Borrower as are in
          the Agent's reasonable judgment necessary and appropriate so that the
          Borrower may make any drawing to which the Borrower is entitled under
          such letter of credit, without impairment of the Agent's perfected
          security interest in the Borrower's rights to proceeds of such letter
          of credit or in the actual proceeds of such drawing.  At the Agent's
          request, the Borrower shall, for any letter of credit, whether or not
          written, now or hereafter issued in favor of the Borrower as
          beneficiary, execute and deliver to the issuer and any confirmer of
          such letter of credit an assignment of proceeds form, in favor of the
          Agent and satisfactory to the Agent and such issuer or (as the case
          may be) such confirmer, requiring the proceeds of any drawing under
          such letter of credit to be paid directly to the Agent for application
          as provided in the Credit Agreement.

          2.3.  Excluded Collateral.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
                -------------------
     of this (S)2, such grant of security interest shall not extend to, and the
     term "Collateral" shall not include, any chattel paper and general
     intangibles which are now or hereafter held by the Borrower as licensee,
     lessee or otherwise, to the extent that (i) such chattel paper and general
     intangibles are not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter
     of law or under the terms of the license, lease or other agreement
     applicable thereto (but solely to the extent that any such restriction
     shall be enforceable under applicable law), without the consent of the
     licensor or lessor thereof or other applicable party thereto and (ii) such
     consent has not been obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing grant
                                    --------  -------
     of security interest shall extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall
     include, (A) any and all proceeds of such chattel paper and general
     intangibles to the extent that the assignment or encumbering of such
     proceeds is not so restricted and (B) upon any such licensor, lessor or
     other applicable party's consent with respect to any such otherwise
     excluded chattel paper or general intangibles being obtained, thereafter
     such chattel paper or general intangibles as well as any and all proceeds
     thereof that might have theretofore have been excluded from such grant of a
     security interest and the term "Collateral".

          2.4.  Stock Pledge Agreement.  Concurrently herewith the Borrower is
                ----------------------
     executing and delivering to the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks and the
     Agent, a stock pledge agreement pursuant to which the Borrower is pledging
     to the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks and the Agent, all the shares of
     the capital stock of the Borrower's Subsidiaries. Such pledge shall be
     governed by the terms of such stock pledge agreement and not by the terms
     of this Agreement.

                                      -5-

     3.  Title to Collateral, etc.  The Borrower is the owner of the Collateral
         -------------------------
free from any adverse lien, security interest or other encumbrance, except for
the security interest created by this Agreement and other liens permitted by the
Credit Agreement. None of the Collateral constitutes, or is the proceeds of,
"farm products" as defined in (S)9-109(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. None of the account debtors in respect of any
accounts, chattel paper or general intangibles and none of the obligors in
respect of any instruments included in the Collateral is a governmental
authority subject to the Federal Assignment of Claims Act.

     4.  Continuous Perfection.  The Borrower's place of business or, if more
         ---------------------
than one, chief executive offices are indicated on the Borrower's Perfection
Certificate delivered to the Agent herewith (the "Perfection Certificate"). The
Borrower will not change the same, or the name, identity or corporate structure
of the Borrower in any manner, without providing at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the Agent. The Collateral, to the extent not delivered to the
Agent pursuant to (S)2.2, will be kept at those locations listed on the
Perfection Certificate and the Borrower will not remove the Collateral from such
locations, without providing at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to
the Agent.

     5.  No Liens.  Except for the security interest herein granted and liens
         --------
permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall be the owner of the
Collateral free from any lien, security interest or other encumbrance, and the
Borrower shall defend the same against all claims and demands of all persons at
any time claiming the same or any interests therein adverse to the Agent or any
of the Banks. The Borrower shall not pledge, mortgage or create, or suffer to
exist a security interest in the Collateral in favor of any person other than
the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks and the Agent, except for liens
permitted by the Credit Agreement.

     6.  No Transfers.  The Borrower will not sell or offer to sell or otherwise
         ------------
transfer the Collateral or any interest therein except for (a) sales and leases
of inventory and licenses of general intangibles in the ordinary course of
business and (b) sales or other dispositions of obsolescent items of equipment
in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices.

     7.  Insurance.
         ---------

          7.1.  Maintenance of Insurance.  The Borrower will maintain with
                ------------------------
     financially sound and reputable insurers insurance with respect to its
     properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies as
     shall be in accordance with general practices of businesses engaged in
     similar activities in similar geographic areas. Such insurance shall be in
     such minimum amounts that the Borrower will not be deemed a co-insurer
     under applicable insurance laws, regulations and policies and otherwise
     shall be in such amounts, contain such terms, be in such forms and be for
     such periods as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. In addition,
     all such insurance shall be payable to the Agent as loss payee under a
     "standard" or
<PAGE>

                                      -6-

     "New York" loss payee clause for the benefit of the Banks and the Agent.
     Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower will (a) keep all of its
     physical property insured with casualty or physical hazard insurance on an
     "all risks" basis, with broad form flood and earthquake coverages and
     electronic data processing coverage, with a full replacement cost
     endorsement and an "agreed amount" clause in an amount equal to 100% of the
     full replacement cost of such property, (b) maintain all such workers'
     compensation or similar insurance as may be required by law and (c)
     maintain, in amounts and with deductibles equal to those generally
     maintained by businesses engaged in similar activities in similar
     geographic areas, general public liability insurance against claims of
     bodily injury, death or property damage occurring, on, in or about the
     properties of the Borrower; business interruption insurance; and product
     liability insurance.

          7.2.  Insurance Proceeds.  The proceeds of any casualty insurance in
                ------------------
     respect of any casualty loss of any of the Collateral shall, subject to the
     rights, if any, of other parties with a prior interest in the property
     covered thereby, (a) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred
     and is continuing and to the extent that the amount of such proceeds is
     less than $50,000.00, be disbursed to the Borrower for direct application
     by the Borrower solely to the repair or replacement of the Borrower's
     property so damaged or destroyed and (b) in all other circumstances, be
     held by the Agent as cash collateral for the Obligations. The Agent may, at
     its sole option, disburse from time to time all or any part of such
     proceeds so held as cash collateral, upon such terms and conditions as the
     Agent may reasonably prescribe, for direct application by the Borrower
     solely to the repair or replacement of the Borrower's property so damaged
     or destroyed, or the Agent may apply all or any part of such proceeds to
     the Obligations with the Total Revolver Commitment (if not then terminated)
     being reduced by the amount so applied to the Obligations.

          7.3.  Notice of Cancellation, etc.  All policies of insurance shall
                ----------------------------
     provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written cancellation notice to
     the Agent. In the event of failure by the Borrower to provide and maintain
     insurance as herein provided, the Agent may, at its option, provide such
     insurance and charge the amount thereof to the Borrower. The Borrower shall
     furnish the Agent with certificates of insurance and policies evidencing
     compliance with the foregoing insurance provision.

     8.  Maintenance of Collateral; Compliance with Law.  The Borrower will keep
         ----------------------------------------------
the Collateral in good order and repair and will not use the same in violation
of law or any policy of insurance thereon. The Agent, or its designee, may
inspect the Collateral at any reasonable time, wherever located. The Borrower
will pay promptly when due all taxes (except as expressly set forth in (S)8.8 of
the Credit Agreement), assessments, governmental charges and levies upon the
Collateral or incurred in connection with the use or operation of such
Collateral or incurred in connection with this Agreement. The Borrower has at
all times operated, and the Borrower will continue to operate, its business in
compliance with all applicable
<PAGE>

                                      -7-

provisions of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended, and with all
applicable provisions of federal, state and local statutes and ordinances
dealing with the control, shipment, storage or disposal of hazardous materials
or substances.

     9.  Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.
         ----------------------------------------------------------

          9.1.  Expenses Incurred by Agent.  In its discretion, the Agent may
                --------------------------
     discharge taxes (except as expressly set forth in (S)8.8 of the Credit
     Agreement) and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of
     the Collateral, make repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees. The
     Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent on demand for any and all
     expenditures so made. The Agent shall have no obligation to the Borrower to
     make any such expenditures, nor shall the making thereof relieve the
     Borrower of any default.

          9.2.  Agent's Obligations and Duties.  Anything herein to the contrary
                ------------------------------
     notwithstanding, the Borrower shall remain liable under each contract or
     agreement comprised in the Collateral to be observed or performed by the
     Borrower thereunder. Neither the Agent nor any Bank shall have any
     obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of
     or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Agent or any Bank of
     any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Agent or any
     Bank be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of the
     Borrower under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make
     inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the
     Agent or any Bank in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of
     any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, 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 the
     Agent or to which the Agent or any Bank may be entitled at any time or
     times. The Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and
     physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under (S)9-207
     of the Uniform Commercial Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or
     otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the
     Agent deals with similar property for its own account.

     10.  Securities and Deposits.  The Agent may at any time, at its option,
          -----------------------
transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral,
receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or
apply it to the Obligations. Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Agent
may demand, sue for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it
deems desirable with respect to the Collateral. Regardless of the adequacy of
Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums
at any time credited by or due from the Agent or any Bank to the Borrower may at
any time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations.

     11.  Notification to Account Debtors and Other Obligors.   If a Default or
          --------------------------------------------------
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall,
at
<PAGE>

                                      -8-

the request of the Agent, notify account debtors on accounts, chattel paper and
general intangibles of the Borrower and obligors on instruments for which the
Borrower is an obligee of the security interest of the Agent in any account,
chattel paper, general intangible or instrument and that payment thereof is to
be made directly to the Agent or to any financial institution designated by the
Agent as the Agent's agent therefor, and the Agent may itself, if a Default or
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to or
demand upon the Borrower, so notify account debtors and obligors. After the
making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, the Borrower
shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general
intangibles and instruments received by the Borrower as trustee for the Agent,
for the benefit of the Banks and the Agent, without commingling the same with
other funds of the Borrower and shall turn the same over to the Agent in the
identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or
assignments. The Agent shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts,
chattel paper, general intangibles and instruments received by the Agent to the
Obligations, such proceeds to be immediately entered after final payment in cash
or solvent credits of the items giving rise to them.

     12.  Further Assurances.  The Borrower, at its own expense, shall do, make,
          ------------------
execute and deliver all such additional and further acts, things, deeds,
assurances and instruments as the Agent may require more completely to vest in
and assure to the Agent and the Banks their respective rights hereunder or in
any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (a) executing, delivering
and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and continuation statements
under the Uniform Commercial Code, (b) obtaining governmental and other third
party consents and approvals, including without limitation any consent of any
licensor, lessor or other applicable party referred to in (S)2.3, (c) obtaining
waivers from mortgagees and landlords and (d) taking all actions required by
Sections 8-313 and 8-321 of the Uniform Commercial Code (1990) or Sections 8-106
and 9-115 of the Uniform Commercial Code (1994), as applicable in each relevant
jurisdiction, with respect to certificated and uncertificated securities.

     13.  Power of Attorney.
          -----------------

          13.1.  Appointment and Powers of Agent.  The Borrower hereby
                 -------------------------------
     irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Agent and any officer or agent
     thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-
     in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of
     the Borrower or in the Agent's 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 that may be necessary or
     desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without
     limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives said attorneys the
     power and right, on behalf of the Borrower, without notice to or assent by
     the Borrower, to do the following:

                 (a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default
          or an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge,
<PAGE>

                                      -9-

          make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the
          Collateral in such manner as is consistent with the Uniform Commercial
          Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and as fully and completely
          as though the Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes,
          and to do at the Borrower'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 security
          interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all
          as fully and effectively as the Borrower might do, including, without
          limitation, (i) the filing and prosecuting of registration and
          transfer applications with the appropriate federal or local agencies
          or authorities with respect to trademarks, copyrights and patentable
          inventions and processes, (ii) upon written notice to the Borrower,
          the exercise of voting rights with respect to voting securities, which
          rights may be exercised, if the Agent so elects, with a view to
          causing the liquidation in a commercially reasonable manner of assets
          of the issuer of any such securities and (iii) the execution, delivery
          and recording, in connection with any sale or other disposition of any
          Collateral, of the endorsements, assignments or other instruments of
          conveyance or transfer with respect to such Collateral; and

                (b) to file such financing statements with respect hereto, with
          or without the Borrower's signature, or a photocopy of this Agreement
          in substitution for a financing statement, as the Agent may deem
          appropriate and to execute in the Borrower's name such financing
          statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which
          may require the Borrower's signature.

          13.2. Ratification by Borrower. To the extent permitted by law, the
                ------------------------
     Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause
     to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with
     an interest and shall be irrevocable.

          13.3. No Duty on Agent. The powers conferred on the Agent hereunder
                ----------------
     are solely to protect the interests of the Agent and the Banks in the
     Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Agent to exercise any
     such powers. The Agent shall be accountable only for the amounts that it
     actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it
     nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
     responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act, except for the
     Agent's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     14.  Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
          --------
continuing, the Agent may, without notice to or demand upon the Borrower,
declare this Agreement to be in default, and the Agent shall thereafter have in
any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other
rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the
Uniform Commercial
<PAGE>

                                      -10-

Code, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the
Collateral, and for that purpose the Agent may, so far as the Borrower can give
authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be
situated and remove the same therefrom. The Agent may in its discretion require
the Borrower to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or
locations within the state(s) of the Borrower's principal office(s) or at such
other locations as the Agent may designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable
or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a
recognized market, the Agent shall give to the Borrower at least five Business
Days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral
or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is
to be made. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that five Business Days prior
written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In addition,
the Borrower waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in
advance of the enforcement of any of the Agent's rights hereunder, including,
without limitation, its right following an Event of Default to take immediate
possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights with respect thereto. To
the extent that any of the Obligations are to be paid or performed by a person
other than the Borrower, the Borrower waives and agrees not to assert any rights
or privileges which it may have under (S)9-112 of the Uniform Commercial Code of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

     15.  No Waiver, etc. The Borrower waives demand, notice, protest, notice of
          ---------------
acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral
received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other
demands and notices of any description. With respect to both the Obligations and
the Collateral, the Borrower assents to any extension or postponement of the
time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or
release of or failure to perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the
addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to
the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or
adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the
Agent may deem advisable. The Agent shall have no duty as to the collection or
protection of the Collateral or any income thereon, nor as to the preservation
of rights against prior parties, nor as to the preservation of any rights
pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth in (S)9.2. The
Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights upon or under the
Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed
by the Agent with the consent of the Majority Banks. No delay or omission on the
part of the Agent in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such
right or any other right. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as
a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion. All rights and remedies
of the Agent with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether
evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and
may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such
time or at such times as the Agent deems expedient.

     16.  Marshalling. Neither the Agent nor any Bank shall be required to
          -----------
marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to
this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the
<PAGE>

                                      -11-

Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other
assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the rights of the
Agent hereunder and of the Agent or any Bank in respect of such collateral
security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to
all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully
may, the Borrower hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the
marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement
of the Agent's rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument
creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the
Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or
payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may,
the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

     17.  Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. The Borrower shall pay to the
          ----------------------------------
Agent on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, incurred or paid by the Agent in protecting, preserving or
enforcing the Agent's rights under or in respect of any of the Obligations or
any of the Collateral. After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any
proceeds of collection or sale of the Obligations or Collateral shall, to the
extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations
in such order or preference as the Bank may determine or in such order or
                                                      --
preference as is provided in the Credit Agreement, proper allowance and
provision being made for any Obligations not then due. Upon the final payment
and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations and after making any payments
required by Section 9-504(1)(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, any excess shall be returned to the Borrower, and
the Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency in the payment of the
Obligations.

     18.  Overdue Amounts. Until paid, all amounts due and payable by the
          ---------------
Borrower hereunder shall be a debt secured by the Collateral and shall bear,
whether before or after judgment, interest at the rate of interest for overdue
principal set forth in the Credit Agreement.

     19.  Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO
          --------------------------------------
TAKE EFFECT AS A SEALED INSTRUMENT AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS. The Borrower
agrees that any suit for the enforcement of this Agreement may be brought in the
courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or any federal court sitting therein
and consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such court and to service of
process in any such suit being made upon the Borrower by mail at the address
specified in (S)20 of the Credit Agreement. The Borrower hereby waives any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any
such court or that such suit is brought in an inconvenient court.

     20.  Waiver of Jury Trial. THE BORROWER WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL
          --------------------
WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF
ANY SUCH RIGHTS
<PAGE>

                                      -12-

OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, the Borrower waives any right which
it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding
sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any
damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages. The Borrower (i)
certifies that neither the Agent or any Bank nor any representative, agent or
attorney of the Agent or any Bank has represented, expressly or otherwise, that
the Agent or any Bank would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the
foregoing waivers and (ii) acknowledges that, in entering into the Credit
Agreement and the other Revolver Loan Documents to which the Agent or any Bank
is a party, the Agent and the Banks are relying upon, among other things, the
waivers and certifications contained in this (S)20.

     21. Concerning Revised Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. The
         -----------------------------------------------------------
parties acknowledge and agree to the following provisions of this Agreement in
anticipation of the possible application, in one or more jurisdictions to the
transactions contemplated hereby, of the revised Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code in the form or substantially in the form approved by the
American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform
State Law and contained in the 1999 official text of Revised Article 9 ("Revised
Article 9").

          21.1. Attachment. In applying the law of any jurisdiction in which
                ----------
     Revised Article 9 is in effect, the Collateral is all assets of the
     Borrower, whether or not within the scope of Revised Article 9. The
     Collateral shall include, without limitation, the following categories of
     assets as defined in Revised Article 9: goods (including inventory,
     equipment and any accessions thereto), instruments (including promissory
     notes), documents, accounts (including health-care-insurance receivables),
     chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic), deposit accounts,
     letter-of-credit rights (whether or not the letter of credit is evidenced
     by a writing), commercial tort claims, securities and all other investment
     property, general intangibles (including payment intangibles and software),
     supporting obligations and any and all proceeds of any thereof, wherever
     located, whether now owned and hereafter acquired. If the Borrower shall at
     any time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any particular
     jurisdiction, acquire a commercial tort claim, as defined in Revised
     Article 9, the Borrower shall immediately notify the Agent in a writing
     signed by the Borrower 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.

          21.2.  Perfection by Filing. The Agent may at any time and from time
                 --------------------
     to time, pursuant to the provisions of (S)13, file financing statements,
     continuation statements and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral
     as all assets of the Borrower or words of similar effect and which contain
     any other information required by Part 5 of Revised Article 9 for the
     sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement,
     continuation statement or amendment, including whether the Borrower is an
     organization, the type of organization and any organization identification
     number issued to
<PAGE>

                                      -13-

     the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to furnish any such information to the
     Agent promptly upon request. Any such financing statements, continuation
     statements or amendments may be signed by the Agent on behalf of the
     Borrower, as provided in (S)13, and may be filed at any time in any
     jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 is then in effect in that
     jurisdiction.

          21.3.  Other Perfection, etc. The Borrower shall at any time and from
                 ---------------------
     time to time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any
     particular jurisdiction, take such steps as the Agent may reasonably
     request for the Agent (a) to obtain an acknowledgement, in form and
     substance satisfactory to the Agent, of any bailee having possession of any
     of the Collateral that the bailee holds such Collateral for the Agent, (b)
     to obtain "control" of any investment property, deposit accounts,
     letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel paper (as such terms are
     defined in Revised Article 9 with corresponding provisions in Rev. (S)(S)
     9-104, 9-105, 9-106 and 9-107 relating to what constitutes "control" for
     such items of Collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be
     in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, and (c) otherwise to
     insure the continued perfection and priority of the Agent's security
     interest in any of the Collateral and of the preservation of its rights
     therein, whether in anticipation and following the effectiveness of Revised
     Article 9 in any jurisdiction.

          21.4.  Other Provisions. In applying the law of any jurisdiction in
                 ----------------

validity of all other terms hereof shall in no way be affected thereby, and this
Agreement shall be construed and be enforceable as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable term had not been included herein. The Borrower acknowledges

Existing Security Agreement shall be subsumed within and governed by this

          executed in blank as the Agent may have specified. In the event that
          Holdings shall, after the date of this Agreement, acquire any other
          negotiable or non-negotiable instruments, certificated securities or
          chattel paper to be pledged by it hereunder, Holdings shall forthwith
          endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Agent, accompanied by such
          instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the
          Agent may from time to time specify.

                 (b) To the extent that any securities now or hereafter acquired
          by Holdings are uncertificated and are issued to Holdings or its
          nominee directly by the issuer thereof, Holdings shall cause the
          issuer to note on its books the security interest of the Agent in such
          securities and shall cause the issuer, pursuant to an agreement in
          form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, to agree to comply with
          instructions from the Agent as to such securities, without further
          consent of Holdings or such nominee. To the extent that any
          securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other
          investment property now or hereafter acquired by Holdings are held by
          Holdings or its nominee through a securities intermediary or commodity
          intermediary, Holdings shall, at the request of the Agent, use
          reasonable efforts to cause such securities intermediary or (as the
          case may be) commodity intermediary, pursuant to an agreement in form
          and substance satisfactory to the Agent, to agree to comply with
          entitlement orders or other instructions from the Agent to such
          securities intermediary as to such securities or other investment
          property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on
          account of any commodity contract as directed by the Agent to such
          commodity intermediary, without further consent of Holdings or such
          nominee. The Agent agrees with Holdings that the Agent shall not give
          any such entitlement orders or instructions or directions to any such
          issuer, securities intermediary or commodity intermediary unless an
          Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Agent has
          elected to exercise its rights and remedies as contemplated by (S)14.

                 (c) To the extent that Holdings is a beneficiary under any
          written letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of Holdings,
          Holdings shall deliver such letter of credit to the Agent. The Agent
          shall from time to time, at the request and expense of Holdings, make
          such arrangements with Holdings as are in the Agent's reasonable
<PAGE>

                                      -4-

          judgment necessary and appropriate so that Holdings may make any
          drawing to which Holdings is entitled under such letter of credit,
          without impairment of the Agent's perfected security interest in
          Holdings' rights to proceeds of such letter of credit or in the actual
          proceeds of such drawing. At the Agent's request, Holdings shall, for
          any letter of credit, whether or not written, now or hereafter issued
          in favor of Holdings as beneficiary, execute and deliver to the issuer
          and any confirmer of such letter of credit an assignment of proceeds
          form, in favor of the Agent and satisfactory to the Agent and such
          issuer or (as the case may be) such confirmer, requiring the proceeds
          of any drawing under such letter of credit to be paid directly to the
          Agent for application as provided in the Credit Agreement.

          2.3.  Excluded Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
                -------------------
     this (S)2, such grant of security interest shall not extend to, and the
     term "Collateral" shall not include, any chattel paper and general
     intangibles which are now or hereafter held by Holdings as licensee, lessee
     or otherwise, to the extent that (i) such chattel paper and general
     intangibles are not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter
     of law or under the terms of the license, lease or other agreement
     applicable thereto (but solely to the extent that any such restriction
     shall be enforceable under applicable law), without the consent of the
     licensor or lessor thereof or other applicable party thereto and (ii) such
     consent has not been obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing grant
                                    --------  -------
     of security interest shall extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall
     include, (A) any and all proceeds of such chattel paper and general
     intangibles to the extent that the assignment or encumbering of such
     proceeds is not so restricted and (B) upon any such licensor, lessor or
     other applicable party's consent with respect to any such otherwise
     excluded chattel paper or general intangibles being obtained, thereafter
     such chattel paper or general intangibles as well as any and all proceeds
     thereof that might have theretofore have been excluded from such grant of a
     security interest and the term "Collateral".

     3. Title to Collateral, etc. Holdings is the owner of the Collateral free
        ------------------------
from any adverse lien, security interest or other encumbrance, except for the
security interest created by this Agreement and other liens permitted by the
Credit Agreement. None of the Collateral constitutes, or is the proceeds of,
"farm products" as defined in (S)9-109(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. None of the account debtors in respect of any
accounts, chattel paper or general intangibles and none of the obligors in
respect of any instruments included in the Collateral is a governmental
authority subject to the Federal Assignment of Claims Act.

     4. Continuous Perfection. Holdings' place of business or, if more than one,
        ---------------------
chief executive office is indicated on the Perfection Certificate delivered to
the Agent herewith (the "Perfection Certificate"). Holdings will not change the
same, or the name, identity or corporate structure of Holdings in any manner,
without providing at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Agent.
The Collateral,
<PAGE>

                                      -5-

to the extent not delivered to the Agent pursuant to (S)2.2, will be kept at
those locations listed on the Perfection Certificate and Holdings will not
remove the Collateral from such locations, without providing at least thirty
(30) days prior written notice to the Agent.

     5.  No Liens. Except for the security interest herein granted and liens
         --------
permitted by the Credit Agreement, Holdings shall be the owner of the Collateral
free from any lien, security interest or other encumbrance, and Holdings shall
defend the same against all claims and demands of all persons at any time
claiming the same or any interests therein adverse to the Agent or any of the
Banks. Holdings shall not pledge, mortgage or create, or suffer to exist a
security interest in the Collateral in favor of any person other than the Agent,
for the benefit of the Banks and the Agent, except for liens permitted by the
Credit Agreement.

     6.  No Transfers. Holdings will not sell or offer to sell or otherwise
         ------------
transfer the Collateral or any interest therein except for (i) sales and leases
of inventory and licenses of general intangibles in the ordinary course of
business and (ii) sales or other dispositions of obsolescent items of equipment
in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices.

     7.  Insurance.
         ---------

            7.1.  Maintenance of Insurance. Holdings will maintain with
                  ------------------------
     financially sound and reputable insurers insurance with respect to its
     properties and business against such casualties and contingencies as shall
     be in accordance with general practices of businesses engaged in similar
     activities in similar geographic areas. Such insurance shall be in such
     minimum amounts that Holdings will not be deemed a co-insurer under
     applicable insurance laws, regulations and policies and otherwise shall be
     in such amounts, contain such terms, be in such forms and be for such
     periods as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. In addition, all
     such insurance shall be payable to the Agent as loss payee under a
     "standard" or "New York" loss payee clause for the benefit of the Banks and
     the Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, Holdings will (i) keep all of
     its physical property insured with casualty or physical hazard insurance on
     an "all risks" basis, with broad form flood and earthquake coverages and
     electronic data processing coverage, with a full replacement cost
     endorsement and an "agreed amount" clause in an amount equal to 100% of the
     full replacement cost of such property, (ii) maintain all such workers'
     compensation or similar insurance as may be required by law and (iii)
     maintain, in amounts and with deductibles equal to those generally
     maintained by businesses engaged in similar activities in similar
     geographic areas, general public liability insurance against claims of
     bodily injury, death or property damage occurring, on, in or about the
     properties of Holdings; business interruption insurance; and product
     liability insurance.

            7.2.  Insurance Proceeds. The proceeds of any casualty insurance in
                  ------------------
     respect of any casualty loss of any of the Collateral shall, subject to the
<PAGE>

                                      -6-

     rights, if any, of other parties with a prior interest in the property
     covered thereby, (i) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred
     and is continuing and to the extent that the amount of such proceeds is
     less than $50,000.00, be disbursed to Holdings for direct application by
     Holdings solely to the repair or replacement of Holdings' property so
     damaged or destroyed and (ii) in all other circumstances, be held by the
     Agent as cash collateral for the Obligations. The Agent may, at its sole
     option, disburse from time to time all or any part of such proceeds so held
     as cash collateral, upon such terms and conditions as the Agent may
     reasonably prescribe, for direct application by Holdings solely to the
     repair or replacement of Holdings' property so damaged or destroyed, or the
     Agent may apply all or any part of such proceeds to the Obligations with
     the Total Revolver Commitment (if not then terminated) being reduced by the
     amount so applied to the Obligations.

            7.3.  Notice of Cancellation, etc. All policies of insurance shall
                  ---------------------------
     provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written cancellation notice to
     the Agent. In the event of failure by Holdings to provide and maintain
     insurance as herein provided, the Agent may, at its option, provide such
     insurance and charge the amount thereof to Holdings. Holdings shall furnish
     the Agent with certificates of insurance and policies evidencing compliance
     with the foregoing insurance provision.

     8.  Maintenance of Collateral; Compliance with Law. Holdings will keep the
         ----------------------------------------------
Collateral in good order and repair and will not use the same in violation of
law or any policy of insurance thereon. The Agent, or its designee, may inspect
the Collateral at any reasonable time, wherever located. Holdings will pay
promptly when due all taxes (except as expressly set forth in (S)8.8 of the
Credit Agreement), assessments, governmental charges and levies upon the
Collateral or incurred in connection with the use or operation of such
Collateral or incurred in connection with this Agreement. Holdings has at all
times operated, and Holdings will continue to operate, its business in
compliance with all applicable provisions of the federal Fair Labor Standards
Act, as amended, and with all applicable provisions of federal, state and local
statutes and ordinances dealing with the control, shipment, storage or disposal
of hazardous materials or substances.

     9.  Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.
         ----------------------------------------------------------

            9.1.  Expenses Incurred by Agent. In its discretion, the Agent may
                  --------------------------
     discharge taxes (except as expressly set forth in (S)8.8 of the Credit
     Agreement) and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of
     the Collateral, make repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees.
     Holdings agrees to reimburse the Agent on demand for any and all
     expenditures so made. The Agent shall have no obligation to Holdings to
     make any such expenditures, nor shall the making thereof relieve Holdings
     of any default.

            9.2.  Agent's Obligations and Duties. Anything herein to the
                  ------------------------------
     contrary notwithstanding, Holdings shall remain liable under each contract
     or agreement comprised in the Collateral to be observed or performed by
<PAGE>

                                      -7-

     Holdings thereunder. Neither the Agent nor any Bank shall have any
     obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of
     or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Agent or any Bank of
     any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Agent or any
     Bank be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of
     Holdings under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make
     inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the
     Agent or any Bank in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of
     any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, 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 the
     Agent or to which the Agent or any Bank may be entitled at any time or
     times. The Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and
     physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under (S)9-207
     of the Uniform Commercial Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or
     otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the
     Agent deals with similar property for its own account.

     10.  Securities and Deposits. The Agent may at any time, at its option,
          -----------------------
transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral,
receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or
apply it to the Obligations. Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Agent
may demand, sue for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it
deems desirable with respect to the Collateral. Regardless of the adequacy of
Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums
at any time credited by or due from the Agent or any Bank to Holdings may at any
time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations.

     11.  Notification to Account Debtors and Other Obligors. If a Default or an
          --------------------------------------------------
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Holdings shall, at the
request of the Agent, notify account debtors on accounts, chattel paper and
general intangibles of Holdings and obligors on instruments for which Holdings
is an obligee of the security interest of the Agent in any account, chattel
paper, general intangible or instrument and that payment thereof is to be made
directly to the Agent or to any financial institution designated by the Agent as
the Agent's agent therefor, and the Agent may itself, if a Default or an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to or demand
upon Holdings, so notify account debtors and obligors. After the making of such
a request or the giving of any such notification, Holdings shall hold any
proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles and
instruments received by Holdings as trustee for the Agent, for the benefit of
the Banks and the Agent, without commingling the same with other funds of
Holdings and shall turn the same over to the Agent in the identical form
received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments. The Agent
shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general
intangibles and instruments received by the Agent to the Obligations, such
proceeds to be immediately entered after final payment in cash or solvent
credits of the items giving rise to them.

                                      -8-

     12.  Further Assurances. Holdings, at its own expense, shall do, make,
          ------------------
execute and deliver all such additional and further acts, things, deeds,
assurances and instruments as the Agent may require more completely to vest in
and assure to the Agent and the Banks their respective rights hereunder or in
any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) executing, delivering
and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and continuation statements
under the Uniform Commercial Code, (ii) obtaining governmental and other third
party consents and approvals, including without limitation any consent of any
licensor, lessor or other applicable party referred to in (S)2.3, (iii)
obtaining waivers from mortgagees and landlords and (iv) taking all actions
required by Sections 8-313 and 8-321 of the Uniform Commercial Code (1990) or
Sections 8-106 and 9-115 of the Uniform Commercial Code (1994), as applicable in
each relevant jurisdiction, with respect to certificated and uncertificated
securities.

     13.  Power of Attorney.
          -----------------

             13.1.  Appointment and Powers of Agent. Holdings hereby irrevocably
                    -------------------------------
     constitutes and appoints the Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with
     full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with
     full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Holdings or
     in the Agent's 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 that may be necessary or desirable to
     accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the
     generality of the foregoing, hereby gives said attorneys the power and
     right, on behalf of Holdings, without notice to or assent by Holdings, to
     do the following:

                    (a)  upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a
             Default or an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer,
             pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with
             any of the Collateral in such manner as is consistent with the
             Uniform Commercial Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and as
             fully and completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner
             thereof for all purposes, and to do at Holdings' 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 security interest therein, in order to effect the
             intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Holdings
             might do, including, without limitation, (i) the filing and
             prosecuting of registration and transfer applications with the
             appropriate federal or local agencies or authorities with respect
             to trademarks, copyrights and patentable inventions and processes,
             (ii) upon written notice to Holdings, the exercise of voting rights
             with respect to voting securities, which rights may be exercised,
             if the Agent so elects, with a view to causing the liquidation in a
             commercially reasonable manner of assets of the issuer of any such
             securities and (iii) the execution, delivery and recording, in
             connection with any sale or other
<PAGE>

                                      -9-

             disposition of any Collateral, of the endorsements, assignments or
             other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such
             Collateral; and

                    (b)  to file such financing statements with respect hereto,
             with or without Holdings' signature, or a photocopy of this
             Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as the Agent
             may deem appropriate and to execute in Holdings' name such
             financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation
             statements which may require Holdings' signature.

             13.2.  Ratification by Holdings. To the extent permitted by law,
                    ------------------------
       Holdings hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or
       cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power
       coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

             13.3.  No Duty on Agent. The powers conferred on the Agent
                    ----------------
       hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Agent and the Banks
       in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Agent to
       exercise any such powers. The Agent shall be accountable only for the
       amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such
       powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or
       agents shall be responsible to Holdings for any act or failure to act,
       except for the Agent's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

       14.   Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
             --------
continuing, the Agent may, without notice to or demand upon Holdings, declare
this Agreement to be in default, and the Agent shall thereafter have in any
jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other
rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the
Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limitation, the right to take
possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Agent may, so far as
Holdings can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the
Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom. The Agent may in its
discretion require Holdings to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at
such location or locations within the state(s) of Holdings' principal office(s)
or at such other locations as the Agent may designate. Unless the Collateral is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily
sold on a recognized market, the Agent shall give to Holdings at least five
Business Days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of
Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended
disposition is to be made. Holdings hereby acknowledges that five Business Days
prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In
addition, Holdings waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial
hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Agent's rights hereunder,
including, without limitation, its right following an Event of Default to take
immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights with respect
thereto. To the extent that any of the Obligations are to be paid or performed
by a person other than Holdings, Holdings waives and agrees not to assert any
rights or privileges which it may have
<PAGE>

                                      -10-

under (S)9-112 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.

     15.  No Waiver, etc. Holdings waives demand, notice, protest, notice of
          ---------------
acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral
received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other
demands and notices of any description. With respect to both the Obligations and
the Collateral, Holdings assents to any extension or postponement of the time of
payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or
failure to perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the addition or
release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the
acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or
adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the
Agent may deem advisable. The Agent shall have no duty as to the collection or
protection of the Collateral or any income thereon, nor as to the preservation
of rights against prior parties, nor as to the preservation of any rights
pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth in (S)9.2. The
Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights upon or under the
Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed
by the Agent with the consent of the Majority Banks. No delay or omission on the
part of the Agent in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such
right or any other right. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as
a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion. All rights and remedies
of the Agent with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether
evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and
may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such
time or at such times as the Agent deems expedient.

     16.  Marshalling. Neither the Agent nor any Bank shall be required to
          -----------
marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to
this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the
Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other
assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the rights of the
Agent hereunder and of the Agent or any Bank in respect of such collateral
security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to
all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully
may, Holdings hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the
marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement
of the Agent's rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument
creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the
Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or
payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may,
Holdings hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

     17.  Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. Holdings shall pay to the Agent on
          ----------------------------------
demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, incurred or paid by the Agent in protecting, preserving or
enforcing the Agent's rights under or in respect of any of the Obligations or
any of the Collateral. After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any
proceeds of collection or sale of the Obligations or Collateral shall, to the
extent actually
<PAGE>

                                      -11-

received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or
preference as the Bank may determine or in such order or preference as is
                                     --
provided in the Credit Agreement, proper allowance and provision being made for
any Obligations not then due. Upon the final payment and satisfaction in full of
all of the Obligations and after making any payments required by Section 9-
504(1)(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
any excess shall be returned to Holdings, and Holdings shall remain liable for
any deficiency in the payment of the Obligations.

     18.  Overdue Amounts. Until paid, all amounts due and payable by Holdings
          ---------------

       21.1.   Attachment. In applying the law of any jurisdiction in which
               ----------
Revised Article 9 is in effect, the Collateral is all assets of Holdings,
whether or not within the scope of Revised Article 9. The Collateral shall
include, without limitation, the following categories of assets as defined in
Revised Article 9: goods (including inventory, equipment and any accessions
thereto), instruments (including promissory notes), documents, accounts
(including health-care-insurance receivables), chattel paper (whether tangible
or electronic), deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights (whether or not the
letter of credit is evidenced by a writing), commercial tort claims, securities
and all other investment property, general intangibles (including payment
intangibles and software), supporting obligations and any and all proceeds of
any thereof, wherever located, whether now owned and hereafter acquired. If
Holdings shall at any time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any
particular jurisdiction, acquire a commercial tort claim, as defined in Revised
Article 9, Holdings shall immediately notify the Agent in a writing signed by
Holdings 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.

       21.2.   Perfection by Filing. The Agent may at any time and from time to
               --------------------
time, pursuant to the provisions of (S)13, file financing statements,
continuation statements and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral as
all assets of Holdings or words of similar effect and which contain any other
information required by Part 5 of Revised Article 9 for the sufficiency or
filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or
amendment, including whether Holdings is an organization, the type of
organization and any organization identification number issued to Holdings.
Holdings agrees to furnish any such information to the Agent promptly upon
request. Any such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments
may be signed by the Agent on behalf of Holdings, as provided in (S)13, and may
be filed at any time in any jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 is
then in effect in that jurisdiction.

       21.3.   Other Perfection, etc. Holdings shall at any time and from time
               ----------------------
to time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any particular
jurisdiction, take such steps as the Agent may reasonably request for the Agent
(a) to obtain an acknowledgement, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Agent, of any bailee having possession of any of the Collateral that the bailee
holds such Collateral for the Agent, (b) to obtain "control" of any investment
property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel paper
(as such terms are defined in Revised Article 9 with corresponding provisions in
Rev. (S)(S) 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 and 9-107 relating to what constitutes "control"
for such items of Collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be in
form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, and (c) otherwise to insure the
continued perfection and priority of the Agent's security interest in any of the
Collateral and of the preservation of its

                                      -13-

rights therein, whether in anticipation and following the effectiveness of
Revised Article 9 in any jurisdiction.

       21.4.   Other Provisions. In applying the law of any jurisdiction in
               ----------------

affected thereby, and this Agreement shall be construed and be enforceable as if
such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term had not been included herein.
