Obligor will not create or permit to exist, nor shall there exist, any security interest in, lien, attachment, levy or encumbrance upon, or assignment or pledge as security of, any of the Collateral, except the security interest of and assignment and pledge to RZB hereunder and Permitted Liens.

(i) Obligor will from time to time, at its expense, take all action requested by RZB, or which may be necessary or desirable, to perfect, continue, evidence, preserve, protect or validate the security interest of and assignment and pledge to RZB hereunder to enable RZB to exercise and enforce its rights hereunder, including, but not limited to, (A) executing and delivering one or more notices, financing statements, agreements or other writings, and (B) delivering to RZB, and stamping or otherwise marking, in such manner as RZB may specify, any and all chattel paper, instruments, letters and advice of credit and documents constituting part of the Collateral, in each case endorsed or accompanied by such instruments of assignment as RZB may specify.

     (ii) Obligor hereby authorizes RZB, at its option but without any obligation so to do, to file financing and continuation statements and amendments to financing statements, naming Obligor as debtor, with respect to any of the Collateral without the signature of Obligor, and agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement. Obligor shall pay the costs of any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, concerning the Collateral.

Obligor shall at all times: (i) be the sole owner of each and every item of Collateral, (ii) defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons and (iii) in the case of tangible property constituting part of the Collateral, (A) properly maintain and keep in good order and repair such property and (B) keep such property fully insured with responsible companies acceptable to RZB against such risks as such Collateral may be subject to, or as RZB may request, under policies containing loss payable clauses naming RZB as loss payee as its interests may appear and otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to RZB, and providing that: (1) all proceeds thereof shall be payable to RZB, (2) such insurance shall not be affected by any act or neglect of Obligor or other owner of the property described in such policy, and (3) such policy and loss payable clause may not be cancelled or amended except upon ten days’ prior written notice to RZB.

Obligor will comply with the requirements of all leases, mortgages and other instruments relating to premises where any Collateral is located.

Obligor will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, except that, if the same constitute Collateral, until notice terminating such authority is given by RZB to Obligor, (i) accounts may be collected in the ordinary course of business as heretofore conducted and (ii) inventory or farm products may be sold in the ordinary course of business as heretofore conducted.

Obligor will give RZB not less than 30 days prior written notice of (i) any change in (A) its name, identity or corporate structure, (B) the location of its chief executive office or any other place of business, or (C) the location of any of the Collateral or its books and records concerning any accounts, (ii) the location of each new place of business opened by Obligor, and (iii) each new location of any Collateral. Obligor will give RZB prompt notice of any loss or depreciation in the value of any of the Collateral. Set forth on Schedule A annexed hereto are all trade names or trade styles used by Obligor, the location of Obligor’s chief executive office, all locations of Collateral and all locations of Obligor’s books and records.

At any time and from time to time (i) RZB may and is hereby authorized to transfer into or register in the name of itself or its nominee any instruments, investment property or documents constituting a part of the Collateral without notice to Obligor, (ii) RZB may receive and retain all Distributions (as hereinafter defined in Section 15), (iii) Obligor will permit representatives of RZB during normal business hours to inspect its premises and books and records pertaining to the Collateral and make extracts from and copies of such books and records, and (iv) upon request, Obligor will enter into warehousing, lockbox or other custodial arrangements satisfactory to RZB.

If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee or any of Obligor’s agents or processors, Obligor shall, and RZB shall also have the right to, notify such warehouseman, bailee, agent or processor of the security interests created hereby and obtain the agreement of all such persons that they hold and will hold possession of such Collateral for the benefit of RZB and deliver the same at the direction of RZB without further consent of the Obligor.

Obligor shall keep full and accurate books and records relating to the Collateral, and stamp or otherwise mark such books and records in such manner as RZB may reasonably require in order to reflect the security interest granted hereby.

Obligor will immediately deliver and pledge to RZB or RZB’s agent each instrument, now owned or hereafter acquired, appropriately endorsed to RZB or RZB’s agent.

Obligor shall use its best efforts to cause to be collected from its account debtors and other obligors, as and when due, any and all amounts owing under or on account of each account, each general intangible, each payment intangible, each supporting obligation, each right to payment of money, each chattel paper and each instrument (including, without limitation, all of the foregoing items which are delinquent, such delinquent items to be collected in accordance with lawful collection procedures) and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such items. Upon RZB’s request at any time, any such amounts so collected by Obligor shall be promptly remitted to RZB, in precisely the form received (except for endorsement by Obligor when required), and until so remitted to RZB, shall be held by Obligor in trust for RZB, and shall not be commingled with other funds or property of Obligor, and RZB shall be entitled to apply such amounts to the Obligations in such manner as RZB in its sole discretion shall determine. Obligor will not renew or extend the time of payment of, or consent or agree to any reduction of the amount payable with respect to, any account or other item mentioned above in this paragraph without the written consent of RZB. The costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) of collection, whether incurred by Obligor or RZB, shall be borne by Obligor.

Upon request by RZB, Obligor will promptly notify (and Obligor hereby authorizes RZB so to notify) each account debtor or obligor in respect of any account, general intangible, payment intangible, supporting obligation, right to payment of money, chattel paper or instrument that such Collateral has been assigned to RZB hereunder, and that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral are to be made directly to RZB or its designee.

Obligor will, promptly upon request, provide to RZB all information and evidence it may reasonably request concerning the Collateral, and in particular the accounts, to enable RZB to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due thereon or by virtue thereof,

to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,

to take any action or do any thing which Obligor is required to do hereunder,

to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto, and

to do all other acts and things necessary and advisable in the sole discretion of RZB to carry out and enforce this Agreement.

RZB may declare, by notice to Obligor, any and all of the Obligations immediately due and payable, without any other presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, anything in any other agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and in the case of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding relating to Obligor or its property, all of the Obligations shall automatically become due and payable (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or impair in any way whatsoever the absolute right of RZB to demand payment of the Obligations at any time in its sole discretion, to the extent the agreements and instruments pertaining to such Obligations provide for such demand);

RZB shall have no obligation to make further loans, extensions of credit or other financial accommodations to or on behalf of Obligor, anything in any other agreement to the contrary notwithstanding (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or impair in any way whatsoever the sole and absolute discretion of RZB to make or refrain from making such loans, extensions of credit or financial accommodations to the extent the agreements and instruments pertaining thereto provide for such discretion);

RZB may exercise all other rights to which it is entitled hereunder or under applicable law;

RZB may exercise all rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) and, in addition, RZB may sell the Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sales, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as RZB may deem satisfactory. RZB may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same, absolutely, free from any right or claim of whatever kind. Obligor will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as RZB deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sales may be made in compliance with law. Upon any such sales RZB shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sales shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of Obligor, and to the extent permitted by law, Obligor hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The notice (if any) of such sale required herein shall (i) in the case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, and (ii) in the case of private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as RZB may fix in the notice of such sale. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, RZB will give Obligor reasonable notice of the time and place of any such public sale or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made, and Obligor agrees that five (5) days prior notice shall be deemed reasonable notice. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as RZB may determine. RZB shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. RZB may without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time

by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or any part of Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral sold may be retained by RZB until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but RZB shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice. RZB, instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the security interests granted herein and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.

For the purposes of enforcing any and all rights and remedies under this Agreement, RZB may (i) require Obligor to, and Obligor agrees that it will, at its expense and upon the request of RZB, forthwith assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by RZB and make it available at a place designated by RZB which is, in its opinion, reasonably convenient to RZB whether at the premises of Obligor or otherwise, (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter, with or without process of law and without breach of the peace, any premises where any of the Collateral is or may be located, and without charge or liability to it, seize and remove such Collateral from such premises, (iii) have access to and use Obligor’s books and records relating to the Collateral and (iv) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store or transfer it without charge in or by means of any storage or transportation facility owned or leased by Obligor or any other person, corporation or other entity, process, repair or recondition it or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent RZB deems appropriate and, in connection with such preparation and disposition, use without charge any trademark, trade name, copyright, patent or technical process used by Obligor.

If the Collateral consists in whole or in part of instruments or other investment property and RZB elects to sell or otherwise dispose of such instruments or other investment property, (i) Obligor will, if it controls the issuer of such instruments or other investment property, or it otherwise has the right to effect such registration, and if RZB deems such registration to be desirable, cause such instruments or other investment property to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and take all other action, including but not limited to complying with the “blue sky” or securities laws of the several states and delivering to RZB appropriate quantities of prospectuses, necessary or appropriate so as to permit the public sale or other disposition thereof by RZB in such jurisdictions as RZB may select, and indemnify, in the form then customary, all persons who are underwriters, statutory or otherwise, of such instruments or other investment property in connection with such sale or disposition, such indemnity, to the extent applicable to RZB, to be in addition to that afforded RZB under Section 10(c) hereof, and (ii) RZB may elect not to exercise its rights under clause (i) and in that event may, if in its judgment it shall be necessary or desirable so to do, restrict the number of prospective bidders so as to comply with the provisions of Section 5 of such Securities Act, and restrict such prospective bidders to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the instruments or other investment property in question for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or release of any thereof and who will further agree that such instruments or other investment property purchased by them may bear an appropriate restrictive legend to that effect.

to payment of the expenses of such sale or other realization, including reasonable compensation to (and costs and disbursements of) agents and counsel for RZB, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by RZB in connection therewith, and any other unreimbursed expenses for which RZB is to be reimbursed pursuant to the documents or instruments evidencing or governing any of the Obligations;

to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest on the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of any promissory note, letter of credit reimbursement agreement or other agreement or instrument evidencing any of the Obligations;

to the payment of unpaid principal of the Obligations;

to the payment of all other Obligations, until all Obligations shall have been paid in full; and

to payment to Obligor or its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be entitled thereto, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement are within its powers, corporate or otherwise, have been duly authorized by all required action and do not and will not contravene any law or any agreement or undertaking to which it is a party or by which it may in any way be bound or, if Obligor is a corporation, its certificate of incorporation or by-laws.

Each of the representations and warranties contained herein is true and correct on the date hereof and all other information, including financial statements and projections, furnished to RZB at any time by or on behalf of Obligor was and will be complete and correct in all respects to the extent necessary for the purpose of presenting the subject matter thereof fairly to RZB.

Obligor’s agreements and duties hereunder shall be performed by it at its sole cost and expense.

If Obligor shall fail to do any act or thing which it has covenanted to do hereunder, RZB may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done, either in its name or in the name and on behalf of Obligor, and Obligor hereby irrevocably authorizes RZB so to act.

Obligor agrees to reimburse RZB for all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred, and to indemnify and hold RZB harmless from and against all losses suffered, by RZB in connection with (i) RZB’s exercise of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder, (ii) any claim and the prosecution or defense thereof arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement, and (iii) the collection or enforcement of the Obligations.

Amounts payable by Obligor under this Section 10 shall constitute Obligations which shall be payable on demand.

No delay by RZB in exercising any right hereunder, or under any of the other Obligations, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude other or further exercises thereof or the exercise of any other right. No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other agreements, instruments or documents evidencing the Obligations shall be enforceable against RZB unless it shall be in writing, be signed by RZB, and expressly refer to the provision affected; any such waiver shall be limited solely to the specific event waived.

All rights granted to RZB hereunder shall be cumulative and shall be supplementary of and in addition to those granted or available to RZB with respect to the other Obligations or under applicable law and nothing herein shall be construed as limiting any such other right.

RZB may assign any or all of the Obligations and may transfer therewith any or all of the Collateral therefor and the transferee shall have the same rights with respect thereto as had RZB. Upon such transfer, RZB shall be released from all responsibility for the Collateral so transferred.

RZB may from time to time sell or otherwise grant participations in any of the Obligations and any Collateral for the Obligations. Obligor agrees that each such holder of a participation may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off and counterclaim with respect to its participation in the Obligations as fully as though Obligor were directly indebted to such holder in the amount of such participation.

This Agreement shall be a continuing agreement and shall apply to all present and future Obligations, notwithstanding that at any particular time all of the Obligations then outstanding shall have been paid in full.

This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until written notice of termination shall have been signed by RZB.

OBLIGOR HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST OBLIGOR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AS RZB MAY ELECT, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY HEREOF, OBLIGOR ACCEPTS AND CONSENTS TO, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT TO ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND AGREES THAT SUCH JURISDICTION SHALL BE EXCLUSIVE, UNLESS WAIVED BY RZB IN WRITING, WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY IT AGAINST RZB. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF RZB TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST OBLIGOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. OBLIGOR AGREES THAT SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT AND, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO STAY OR TO DISMISS ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BEFORE SAID COURTS ON THE BASIS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS.

Obligor waives personal service of process and consents that service of process upon it may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Obligor at its address last specified for notices hereunder, and service so made shall be deemed completed five days after the same shall have been so mailed.
