No security agreement describing all or any portion of the above-described additional Equipment Inventory has been filed or is of record in any jurisdiction except for financing statements or security agreements naming Secured Party as the secured party, and the Lien against such additional Equipment Inventory which is evidenced by the Security Agreement, as hereby amended, is first and superior in priority and is not subject to the Lien of any other person or entity.
