Debtor desires to secure the Loan Documents by granting to Secured Party, among other collateral, a security interest in the personal property more particularly described herein, and by agreeing to be bound by the terms hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce Secured Party to deal with Debtor and to make extensions of credit to Debtor pursuant to the terms hereof, Debtor hereby agrees as follows:

A.        All present and future contract receivables and contract rights, arising out of or in connection with the sale or lease of the Collateral funded under the Loan Documents,  and

B.        Debtors ATM and DVD Rental Machines hereafter acquired with the proceeds of the Loan, together with all accessories, parts, and accessions located upon, attached to or used in connection with any such property or which may at any time hereafter be placed in or added thereto; and

D.        All proceeds of any and all of the Collateral and, to the extent not otherwise included, all payments under insurance (whether or not Secured Party is the loss payee thereof), or any indemnity, warranty or guaranty, payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral; and

E.         All leases, rentals, revenues, payments, repayments, income, charges, monies, issues and profits relating to the foregoing.

SECTION       2.         Security for Obligations.  This Agreement secures the payment of (i) all obligations of Debtor now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses, including but not limited to attorneys' fees, or otherwise; (ii) all obligations of Debtor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and any other agreements securing the LOC Note, including any obligations of Debtor with respect to the real and personal property pledged under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Collateral”); and (iii) all obligations of Debtor to Secured Party (all such obligations of Debtor being the "Obligations").

SECTION       3.         Representations and Warranties.  Debtor represents and warrants as follows:

C.        Debtor owns the Collateral free and clear of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance except for the security interest created by this Agreement or arising by operation of law.  No effective financing statement or other instrument similar in effect covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file in any recording office, and there are no judgments, liens, encumbrances or other security interests outstanding against Debtor or any of its property other than those disclosed to Secured Party in connection with its request for this loan, and except such as may have been filed in favor of Secured Party to this Agreement, or which will be terminated by reason of use of the loan proceeds evidenced herein.

E.         No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required either (i) for the grant by Debtor of the security interest granted hereby or for the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by Debtor or (ii) for the perfection of or the exercise by Secured Party of its rights and remedies hereunder.

F.         Debtor is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has corporate power to borrow from Secured Party and to execute and deliver the Loan Documents, and all security agreements, and other agreements in connection therewith.

M.       Debtor shall procure insurance insuring the Collateral against risks of loss or damage, theft, business interruption insurance coverage, general liability insurance coverage, and such other casualty as Secured Party may reasonably require.  Each such policy shall name Secured Party as loss payee and contain a clause or endorsement satisfactory to Secured Party that such policy may not be cancelled or altered and Secured Party may not be removed as loss payee without at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Secured Party.  In all events, the amounts of such insurance coverages shall conform to prudent business practices and shall be in such minimum amounts that Debtor will not be deemed co-insurers under applicable insurance laws, regulations, policies or practices.  Debtor hereby assigns and grants to Secured Party a security interest in any and all proceeds of such policies insuring the Collateral and, upon the occurrence of an event of Default and continuously thereafter, authorize each insurance company to pay all such proceeds directly and solely to Secured Party and not to Debtor and Secured Party jointly.

N.        Debtor shall immediately notify Secured Party in writing upon the happening, occurrence, or existence of any event of Default, or any event or condition which with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, and shall provided Secured Party with a detailed statement by a responsible officer of Debtor, of all relevant facts and the action being taken or proposed to be taken by Debtor with respect to remedying the Event of Default.

O.        Debtor shall give Secured Party prompt written notice of any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or before any governmental instrumentality or other agency, including any investigation by any governmental instrumentality or any other agency, the outcome of which might adversely affect the operations or financial condition of Debtor.

P.         Debtor shall comply with all laws, rules, ordinances, and regulations to which it may be subject promulgated by any governmental authority and applicable to Debtor, unless contested by Debtor as permitted by law.

Q.        Debtor shall provide Secured Party with thirty (30) or more days prior written notice of the nature of any intended change in it legal or trade name or the location of any facility where any of the Collateral may be located and when such change or use shall become effective.

SECTION       5.         Transfers and Other Liens.  Debtor shall not:

A.        Sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of any material portion of the Collateral (except for the sale of inventory at usual prices in the ordinary course of business).

B.        Create or suffer to exist any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Collateral to secure debt of any person or entity, except for the security interest created by this Agreement.

C.        Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (A) above, if any item of personal property constituting a part of the Collateral becomes inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary or should be replaced, Debtor may remove such item provided that Debtor shall either:

 
i.
Prior to or simultaneously with such removal, substitute and install as part of the Collateral, property having equal or greater value (but not necessarily the same function in the operation of the Collateral), which such substituted property shall be free from all liens and encumbrances and shall become part of the Collateral; or

 
ii.
In the case of removal of property without substitution, promptly pay to Secured Party an amount equal to (a) the proceeds of such sale or the scrap value thereof, if the removed property is sold or scrapped, or (b) if the removed property is used as a trade-in for property not to be installed as part of the Collateral, the trade-in credit received by Debtor.

Debtor shall apply monies under subsection (c)(ii) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance under the note executed in connection with the advance to purchase the Collateral, as provided therein.  In addition, Debtor shall reduce the note executed in connection with the advance to purchase the same Collateral by an amount, if any, equal to the difference between the payments, paid on such note, and the value of the Collateral as carried on the books of Secured Party.

SECTION       6.         Secured Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  Debtor effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party Debtor's attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Debtor and in the name of Debtor, Secured Party or otherwise, from time to time in Secured Party's reasonable discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Secured Party may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement (subject to the rights of Debtor under Section 7), including, without limitation:
