3. Collection Account; Minimum Guaranty Amount; Profit Participation.

(a) In order to secure the prompt and complete payment, performance and observance of the Obligations and in order to induce Secured Party as aforesaid, as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, NL shall open a collection account (the “Collection Account”) into which NL and the Company shall cause all cash receipts and Proceeds (the “Funds”) derived from distribution or exploitation of the Film to be deposited. Among other things, NL and the Company shall cause all licensees and distributors of the Film and all other third parties (together, “Payors”) to pay all amounts of Gross Receipts (as defined in the NL Distribution Agreement) with respect to the Film directly into the Collection Account. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, NL shall deliver to the Secured Party copies of notices of assignment and acknowledgement (in a form reasonably approved by the Secured Party), executed on behalf of NL, the Company and each Payor with respect to the assignment of the existing distribution, license or other agreement (each an “Existing Distribution Agreement”) with such Payor hereunder and payment of Gross Proceeds thereunder into the Collection Account (each, a “Notice of Assignment”). Notices of Assignment with respect to distribution, license or other agreements executed hereafter shall be obtained and delivered to the Secured Party as promptly as reasonably practicable following the execution of such agreements (“Additional Distribution Agreements”). The Collection Account shall be governed by an agreement among a bank selected by NL (and reasonably acceptable to the Secured Party), NL, the Company, and the Members of the Intercreditor Group, including the Secured Party, which provides that Funds will be disbursed from the Collection Account pursuant to the written direction of at least 2 of the 3 Designated Representatives (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) of the Members of the Intercreditor Group. The Collection Account shall constitute a deposit account under the control of a secured party pursuant to the Code. The parties agree that all Funds will be disbursed (and the Secured Party will sign appropriate written directions as aforesaid to disburse the Funds) in the following order and priority:

(i) First, to pay all residuals due and owing to Screen Actors Guild (SAG), Directors Guild of America (DGA) and Writers Guild of America (WGA);

(ii) Second, to pay NL fifty percent (50%) of its Distribution Fee under the NL Distribution Agreement (i.e., ten percent (10%) of Gross Receipts as defined therein), with the balance to be deferred until complete repayment and satisfaction of all Obligations, including all principal, accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Secured Note, and all obligations under the secured notes evidencing the Other Loans to Grantor by the other Members of the Intercreditor Group;

(iii) Third, to reimburse NL all amounts advanced for Approved Distribution Expenses (as defined in the NL Distribution Agreement).

(iv) Fourth, to pay and satisfy all Obligations, including repayment of all principal, accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Secured Note, and all obligations under the secured notes evidencing the Other Loans to Grantor by the other Members of the Intercreditor Group.

(v) Fifth, to pay the balance of the Distribution Fee payable to NL under the NL Distribution Agreement.

(vi) Sixth, to pay NL its royalty of 8% of Gross Receipts in respect of NL’s license to Grantor to use NL’s name, mark and all other intellectual property of NL used in connection with the Film.

(vii) The balance of the Funds will be paid to Grantor, NL, the Secured Party and/or the Other Members of the Intercreditor Group in accordance with the respective participation agreements among the parties, which provide for participations to each Member of the Intercreditor Group on a pro rata, pari passu basis.

(b) If, but only if, NL fails to deliver a fully executed Notice of Assignment as required pursuant to Section 3(a) above (i) with respect to an Existing Distribution Agreement, within ninety (90) days following the date of this Agreement, or (ii) with respect to an Additional Distribution Agreement, within ninety (90) days following the date of such Additional Distribution Agreement, then NL hereby guarantees to the Secured Party that the full amount of the minimum guarantee under such Existing Distribution Agreement or Additional Distribution Agreement, as the case may be, will be deposited into the Collection Account, and NL shall make each such deposit (or any deficit therein) if and to the extent not made by the respective Payor on or before the Maturity Date of the Secured Promissory Note. Any such guaranty by NL with respect to an Existing Distribution Agreement or an Additional Distribution Agreement shall expire if and when NL delivers the Notice of Assignment with respect thereto, provided that such Notice of Assignment is delivered to the Secured Party before the Maturity Date of the Secured Promissory Note.

(c) As a further inducement to the Secured Party to make the Loan evidenced by the Secured Promissory Note, upon receipt of the proceeds of the Loan, NL hereby agrees to irrevocably assign, transfer and convey to Secured Party a Eleven and One-Half percent (11.5%) net profit participation in the Film, which NL shall pay in cash, in accordance with the terms and conditions of that certain Profit Participation Agreement of even date herewith.

4. Secured Party’s Rights, Limitations on Secured Party’s Obligations.

(a) It is expressly agreed by Grantor and NL that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Grantor and NL shall remain liable under each of their Contracts and each of their Licenses to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by them thereunder. Secured Party shall not have any obligation or liability under any Contract or License by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by Secured Party of any payment relating to any Contract or License pursuant hereto. Secured Party shall not be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of Grantor under or pursuant to any Contract or License, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Contract or License, or to present or file any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(b) Secured Party may at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without prior notice to Grantor, notify Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on the Collateral that Secured Party has a security interest therein, and that payments shall be made directly to Secured Party. Thereafter, upon the request of Secured Party, Grantor and NL shall so notify Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral. Once any such notice has been given to any Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, Grantor and NL shall not give any contrary instructions to such Account Debtor or other Person without Secured Party’s prior written consent.

(c) Secured Party may at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in Secured Party’s own name, in the name of a nominee of Secured Party or in the name of Grantor communicate (by mail, telephone, facsimile or otherwise) with Account Debtors, parties to Contracts and obligors in respect of Instruments to verify with such Persons, to Secured Party’s satisfaction, the existence, amount, terms of, and any other matter relating to, the Film, the Literary Property, the Physical Properties, any Product, Accounts, General Intangibles (including all Products, Contracts, Intellectual Property, and payment intangibles), Instruments or Chattel Paper included in the Collateral.

The Lien of Secured Party on the Collateral listed on Schedule II hereto is prior to all other Liens, except the Permitted Additional Liens and Permitted Encumbrances arising in the ordinary course of making the Film that would be prior to the Liens in favor of Secured Party as a matter of law, and such Lien is enforceable in favor of Secured Party as such against any and all creditors of and purchasers from Grantor or NL.

Grantor and NL shall mark their books and records pertaining to the Collateral to evidence this Security Agreement and the Liens granted hereby. If Grantor or NL retains possession of any Chattel Paper or Instruments with Secured Party's consent, such Chattel Paper and Instruments shall be marked with the following legend: “This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the security interest of VS Investment B, LLC, as Secured Party.”

(i) Grantor and NL shall provide reasonable notice to Secured Party of any material change to any application or registration relating to any Copyright (now or hereafter existing), including information that such application or registration is or may become abandoned, finally refused or expired or dedicated, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Copyright Office or any court) regarding Grantor’s ownership of any Copyright, right to register the same, or to keep and exclusively maintain the same.

(ii) In no event shall Grantor, either directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency without giving Secured Party prior written notice thereof, and, upon request of Secured Party, Grantor shall execute and deliver any and all applicable Notices of Security Interests in Patents and Trademarks and Notices of Security Interests in Copyrights as Secured Party may request to evidence Secured Party's Lien on such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and the General Intangibles of Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(iii) Grantor and NL shall take all actions necessary or requested by Secured Party to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of Copyrights (now or hereafter existing), including the filing of applications for renewal, unless Grantor reasonably shall determine that such Copyright is not material to the conduct of its business.

(iv) In the event that any of the Copyright Collateral is infringed upon, or misappropriated or diluted by a third party, Grantor shall comply with Section 6(a)(viii) of this Security Agreement. Grantor shall, unless it shall reasonably determine that such Copyright Collateral is not material to the conduct of its business or operations, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and shall take such other actions as Secured Party shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Patent, Trademark or Copyright Collateral.

(d) Indemnification. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Secured Party relating to any Collateral for any sum owing with respect thereto or to enforce any rights or claims with respect thereto, Grantor and NL will save, indemnify and keep Secured Party harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, arising out of a breach by Grantor or NL of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to, or in favor of, such obligor or successors from Grantor or NL, except in the case of Secured Party, to the extent such expense, loss, or damage is attributable solely to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. All such obligations of Grantor shall be and remain enforceable against and only against Grantor and shall not be enforceable against Secured Party. In addition, Grantor shall at all times defend and indemnify and hold Secured Party and its Affiliates, members, managers, officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, successors and assigns free and harmless from and against any and all liabilities, claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, settlements, judgments or recoveries resulting from any breach of any of the warranties, representations, agreements or covenants made by Grantor in this Security Agreement, and from any suit or proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever against Secured Party arising from or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement, the Secured Promissory Note or any of the documents, instruments or agreements to be executed pursuant hereto or any of the rights and properties assigned to Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable outside attorneys’ fees and costs and expenses incurred by Secured Party, all of which shall be charged to and paid by Grantor and shall be secured by the Collateral hereunder; provided, however, that Grantor shall not have any obligation under the foregoing sentence with respect to any such event resulting from an indemnified party’s breach of this Security Agreement, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e) Compliance with Terms of Accounts, Related Agreements, etc. In all material respects, Grantor and NL will perform, observe and comply with, and cause their employees and agents to perform, observe and comply with, all obligations, covenants, representations and warranties of Grantor or NL under any of the Related Agreements or in respect of the Film or the Collateral and all other agreements to which either is a party or by which either is bound relating to the Film or the Collateral.

(f) Limitation on Liens on Collateral. Grantor and NL will not create, permit or suffer to exist, and will defend the Collateral against, and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except the Permitted Additional Liens and Permitted Encumbrances arising in the ordinary course of making the Film that would be prior to the Liens in favor of Secured Party as a matter of law, and will defend the right, title and interest of Secured Party in and to any of Grantor’s or NL’s rights under the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

(g) Limitations on Disposition. Grantor and NL will not sell, lease, license, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral (including without limitation any such transfer or disposition by way of capital or equity contribution to another Person), or attempt or contract to do so except for (i) sales, exchanges, trade-ins or other dispositions of Equipment that is substantially worn, damaged, or obsolete in the ordinary course of business, (ii) sales of Inventory to buyers in the ordinary course of business, and (iii) licenses by Grantor or NL of Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights, and other intellectual property rights in the ordinary course of business, and not in a transaction or as part of a series of related transactions whereby substantially all of the Grantor’s assets are transferred to one or more Persons, to (x) a Person that is not an Affiliate or (y) if such transaction has been approved in advance by Grantor’s respective board of directors, a Person that is a Subsidiary; provided, that a license shall be deemed to be not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this subsection if it is an exclusive license, unless either (I) such license has been approved in advance by Grantor’s board of directors, or (II) such license relates only to a single product. The rights of the transferee or licensee with respect to any transfer or license as authorized in this subsection will be free and clear of the security interest of Secured Party hereunder; provided, however, that such security interest shall in the event of any such transfer or license continue to attach to all rights of Grantor or NL, as the case may be, pursuant to such transfer or license and the proceeds of such transfer or license as provided elsewhere herein.

(h) Further Identification of Collateral. Grantor and NL will, if so requested by Secured Party, furnish to Secured Party, as often as Secured Party reasonably requests (but not more often than quarterly), statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as Secured Party may reasonably request, all in such detail as Secured Party may specify.

(i) Notices. Grantor and NL will advise Secured Party promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any Lien (other than the Additional Permitted Lien and Permitted Encumbrances) or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral, and (ii) of the occurrence of any other event which would have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the Collateral or on the Liens created hereunder.

(j) No Reincorporation; No Non-Ordinary Course Transactions. Grantor shall not reincorporate or reorganize under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which it was incorporated as of the date hereof without the prior written consent of Secured Party. Grantor shall not consummate or commit to consummate any non-ordinary course transaction.

(k) Terminations; Amendments Not Authorized. Other than the filing of financing statements in connection with the perfection of the Permitted Additional Liens, Grantor and NL acknowledge that they are not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement with respect to any of the Collateral without the prior written consent of Secured Party and agree not do so without the prior written consent of Secured Party, subject to such Grantor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the Code.

(l) Records, Reports and Information. Grantor and NL shall permit representatives of Secured Party to have access to and to examine the Physical Properties, and all books and records relating to any other Collateral during business hours upon notice of no less than five (5) Business days; and furnish to Secured Party, at Grantor’s expense, such other information relating to the affairs of Grantor as Secured Party reasonably may request from time to time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor shall, if reasonably requested by Secured Party, at any time, but no more frequently than on a weekly basis, when any Obligation remains unpaid or not performed hereunder, supply Secured Party promptly with, or cause Secured Party to be promptly supplied with monthly sales reports, setting forth the status of all presales entered into with respect to the Film. In addition Grantor and NL shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Secured Party such information relating to the distribution and licensing of the Film, business, properties, condition, operations and affairs of Grantor or, as the same may relate to the Film or any of the Collateral, NL, financial or otherwise, as Secured Party may reasonably request from time to time.

(m) Compliance. Grantor shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations relating to, and shall pay prior to delinquency all license fees, registration fees, taxes, guild or union pension, health and welfare payments, supplemental market, reuse and other required payments and assessments, and all other charges, including without limitation non-governmental levies or assessments, which may be levied upon or assessed against, or which may become security interests, liens or other encumbrances on, the ownership, operation, possession, maintenance, exploitation, exhibition or use of, the Collateral, or which create or may create a lien upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, Grantor shall pay prior to delinquency all required guild or union residual payments arising prior to delivery of the Film, and NL shall pay prior to delinquency all required guild or union residual payments arising after delivery of the Film.

(n) Transactions With Affiliates. Grantor shall not effect any transaction with NL or any other Affiliate on a basis less favorable to Grantor than would be the case if such transaction had been effected with a non-Affiliate.

(o) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

(p) Insurance. Grantor shall at all times hereunder at its own cost and expense obtain and keep in full force and effect in amount, kind and form reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party and with insurers approved by Secured Party such insurance coverage as is customarily obtained by producers of motion pictures, including so-called “Producer’s Package Coverage,” errors and omission insurance and comprehensive liability coverage. The policies of insurance included in the Producer’s Package Coverage (other than Workers Compensation Insurance) shall include Secured Party as a loss payee; the errors and omission and comprehensive liability insurance referenced above shall name Secured Party (and its agents, officers, directors and employees) as an additional insured thereunder; and all such policies shall provide for the issuance to Secured Party of written notice of any cancellation of or material change in any such insurance coverage which written notice shall be given to Secured Party not less than ten (10) days in advance of such cancellation of or material change in such insurance coverage.

(q) Consolidation, Merger, Dissolution, Sale. Grantor shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or entity or wind up, liquidate or dissolve its affairs, or sell, lease, license, transfer or otherwise dispose of or grant an interest in all or a substantial part of the Collateral or its other properties and assets or change its corporate or trade name.

(r) Final Budget; Use of Proceeds. Grantor shall not pay or incur any expense except as provided in the Final Budget or as expressly authorized in this Agreement without the prior written consent of Secured Party. Grantor shall not use the proceeds of the Loan or any of the Other Loans for any purpose or thing other than the production, marketing and distribution of the Film in accordance with the Final Budget and for the other purposes expressly authorized under this Agreement.

(s) Grantor shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, carry on and conduct its business in substantially the same manner and in substantially the same fields of enterprise as it is presently conducted and do all things necessary to remain duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing as a domestic corporation, partnership or limited liability company in its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, as the case may be, as in effect on the date hereof, and maintain all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except to the extent that the failure to maintain any of the foregoing would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Grantor or the rights of the Secured Party under the Obligations.

(t) Grantor shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, timely file complete and correct United States federal and applicable foreign, state and local tax returns required by law and pay when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges and levies upon it or its income, profits or property, except those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside in accordance with GAAP.

(u) Grantor and NL shall, and shall cause each of their subsidiaries to, at their expense, keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to the Film. Grantor and NL shall permit any representatives designated by Secured Party, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours, to visit and inspect their properties, to examine and make extracts from their books and records related to the Film, and to discuss their affairs, finances and condition (with respect to NL, limited to matters related to the Film) with their officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested, but no more often than quarterly.

Grantor shall, immediately upon completion of the quarterly financial statements for each of the fiscal quarters of Grantor, cause Weinberg & Company, P.A. or such other independent accounting firm satisfactory to Secured Party, in its sole discretion (the “Independent Accountants”), to deliver copies of Grantor’s consolidated and consolidating balance sheets and related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of the end of and for such fiscal quarter and the then elapsed portion of the fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the corresponding period or periods of (or, in the case of the balance sheet, as of the end of) the previous fiscal year.

7. Secured Party’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. Contemporaneously herewith, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Secured Party a power of attorney (the “Power of Attorney”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The power of attorney granted pursuant to the Power of Attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be revocable only upon repayment in full of the Secured Promissory Note and full performance of all Obligations of Grantor and NL hereunder. The powers conferred on Secured Party under the Power of Attorney are solely to protect Secured Party’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Secured Party agrees that (a) except for the powers granted in clause (h) of the Power of Attorney, it shall not exercise any power or authority granted under the Power of Attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (b) Secured Party shall account for any monies received by Secured Party in respect of any foreclosure on or disposition of Collateral pursuant to the Power of Attorney, provided that Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral, and Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers. NONE OF SECURED PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO GRANTOR OR NL FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, NOR FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

8. Remedies, Rights Upon Default.

(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Secured Promissory Note and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Secured Party may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor expressly agrees that in any such event Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon Grantor, NL or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of Grantor or NL where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving Grantor, NL or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on Secured Party’s claim or action, and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.

Secured Party 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 said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. Secured Party shall have the right to conduct such sales on Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or times as Secured Party deems necessary or advisable. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Grantor and NL further agree, at Secured Party’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place or places designated by Secured Party which are reasonably convenient to Secured Party, NL and Grantor, whether at Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Until Secured Party is able to effect a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral, Secured Party shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Secured Party. Secured Party shall have no obligation to Grantor or NL to maintain or preserve the rights of Grantor or NL as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Secured Party. Secured Party may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of Secured Party’s remedies with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as Secured Party shall determine in its sole discretion, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor and NL waive all claims, damages, and demands against Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Grantor and NL agree that ten (10) days prior notice by Secured Party of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by Secured Party to collect such deficiency. Secured Party acknowledges that the rights and remedies set forth in this Section 8(a) are also reserved to an additional secured party pursuant to the Permitted Additional Lien.

(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, Grantor and NL hereby waive presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

(c) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Secured Party to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Grantor and NL acknowledge and agree that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Secured Party (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Secured Party to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the

Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Grantor or NL, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, or (xi) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Secured Party, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Secured Party in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Grantor and NL acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 8(c) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Secured Party would not be commercially unreasonable in the Secured Party’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Party shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8(c). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8(c) shall be construed to grant any rights to Grantor or NL or to impose any duties on Secured Party that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8(c).

(d) Secured Party shall not be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Secured Party shall not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, Grantor and NL absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of, and covenant not to assert against Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defense they may have as sureties now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise.

9. Grant of License to use Intellectual Property. For the sole purpose of enabling Secured Party to exercise rights and remedies under Section 8 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 8 hereof, in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as Secured Party shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, Grantor and NL hereby grant to Secured Party an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to Grantor or NL) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor or NL which is part of the Collateral, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

10. Limitation on Secured Party's Duties in Respect of Collateral. Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Secured Party shall not have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

11. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Grantor or NL for liquidation or reorganization, should Grantor or NL become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Grantor’s or NL’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 obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, 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 Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

12. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, 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 and serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be given (a) if to Grantor or NL, to Grantor’s and NL’s address set forth below the names on the signature page hereof, and (b) if to Secured Party, to Secured Party's address set forth below its name on the signature page hereof, or to such other address as either party may furnish to the others in writing, making specific reference to this Section 12.

13. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Security Agreement 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 Security Agreement. This Security Agreement sets forth the complete understanding and agreement of Secured Party and Grantor with respect to the matters referred to herein.

14. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. Secured Party shall not 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 Secured Party and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Secured Party would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of Secured Party, 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 Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Secured Party and Grantor.

15. Limitation by Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.

16. [Reserved].

17. Successors and Assigns. This Security Agreement and all obligations of Grantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Grantor (including any debtor-in-possession on behalf of Grantor) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder, inure to the benefit of Secured Party, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations and its respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner affect the Lien granted to Secured Party hereunder. Grantor may not assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Security Agreement and any unconsented transfer shall be void ab initio.

18. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be authenticated in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one and the same agreement. This Security Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile, or if approved in writing by Secured Party, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid.

19. Governing Law. IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT AND AGREE THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN GRANTOR AND SECURED PARTY PERTAINING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, PROVIDED,

THAT SECURED PARTY, NL AND GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY, AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE SECURED PARTY FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF SECURED PARTY. GRANTOR AND NL EXPRESSLY SUBMIT AND CONSENT IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. GRANTOR AND NL HEREBY WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREE THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO GRANTOR AND NL AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ON THE SIGNATURE PAGES HERETO AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

20. Waiver of Jury Trial. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATING HERETO BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, BETWEEN SECURED PARTY AND GRANTOR ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.

21. Section Titles. The Section titles contained in this Security Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

22. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Security Agreement.

23. Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed this Security Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Section 19 and Section 20, with its counsel.

24. Integration. This Security Agreement, together with the other agreements, documents, and instruments executed in connection with the foregoing, reflect the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.
