In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required by Exhibit E to the Loan Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, Lender may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of any Grantor hereunder or any Event of Default, in its sale discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as Lender deems advisable. All sums disbursed by Lender in connection with this Section including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by Grantors to Lender and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.

(c) furnish to Lender, from time to time at Lender’s request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as Lender may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail;

(d) if requested by Lender, with respect to each lien on Equipment which is subject to a certificate of title statute that requires notation of a lien thereon to perfect a security interest therein such Grantor shall deliver to Lender all original certificates of title for such Equipment, shall take all necessary steps to cause Lender’s security interest be perfected in accordance with such statute and deliver to Lender a schedule in reasonable detail describing such Equipment, registration number, license number and all other information required to comply with such statute; provided, however, that until Lender makes such a request under this clause, the parties hereto acknowledge that the security interest of Lender in such Collateral has not been perfected and all the representations and warranties, covenants and Events of Default

contained herein and in the other Loan Documents which would otherwise be violated shall be deemed modified to reflect the foregoing and not be violated; and

(e) if requested by Lender, execute and deliver confirmatory written instruments, and obtain any consents, waivers or agreements, as may be necessary, or as Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted to Lender hereby, but any Grantor’s failure to do so shall not affect or limit the security interest granted hereby or Lender’s other rights in and to the Collateral.

With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder, each Grantor hereby authorizes Lender to Authenticate and to file one or more U.C.C. financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, and make filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country), in each case for the purpose of perfecting, confining, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted by such Grantor, without the signature of such Grantor, and naming such Grantor as debtor and Lender as secured party. A carbon, photographic, telecopied or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.

SECTION 4.15. Collateral Account. (a) Upon notice by Lender to Grantors pursuant to this Section following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all Proceeds of Collateral received by Grantors shall be delivered in kind to Lender for deposit to a deposit account (the “Collateral Account”) of such Grantor maintained by or on behalf of Lender, and until such Proceeds are so deposited they shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender and shall not be commingled with the other assets of such Grantor.

(b) Lender shall have the right to apply any amount in the Collateral Account to the payment of any Secured Obligations, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. Subject to the rights of Lender, each Grantor shall have the right on each Business Day, with respect to and to the extent of collected funds in the Collateral Account, to require Lender to purchase any Cash Equivalents, provided that, in the case of Certificated Securities, Lender will retain possession thereof as Collateral and, in the case of other Investment Property, Lender will take such actions, including registration of such Investment Property in its name, as it shall determine is necessary to perfect its security interest therein.

SECTION 4.16. Notice of Material Adverse Effect. Each Grantor shall promptly notify Lender, after obtaining knowledge thereof, of any event that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on any value of the Collateral, the ability of such Grantor or Lender to dispose of the Collateral or the rights or remedies of Lender in relation thereto.

SECTION 4.17. General Intangibles. Each Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents, waivers or agreements necessary to enable Lender to exercise remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with respect to any of such

Grantor’s rights under any General Intangibles, including such Grantor’s rights as a licensee of any Intellectual Property Collateral.

SECTION 4.18. Additional Covenants. Each Grantor agrees that, until all the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash on terms and pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, it will comply with all the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are applicable to it.

ARTICLE V
THE LENDER

Each Grantor hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

SECTION 5.2. Lender May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Lender may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor.

SECTION 5.3. Access and Examination. In order to give effect to the intent of this Agreement Lender may at all reasonable times upon reasonable advance notice (if no Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) have access to, examine, audit, make extracts from and inspect Grantors’ records, files and books of account and the Collateral, and may discuss Grantor’s affairs with Grantors’ officers and management. Each Grantor will deliver to Lender promptly following its request therefor any instrument necessary for Lender to

obtain records from any service bureau maintaining records for such Grantor. Lender may, at expense of the Grantors, use Grantors’ personnel, supplies and premises as may be reasonably necessary for maintaining or enforcing the security interest granted hereunder. Lender shall have the right, at any time, in Grantors’ name to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to the Receivables Collateral; provided that Lender shall not communicate with any account obligors of Grantors unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 5.4. Lender Has No Duty. (a) The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. The Lender’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the U.C.C. or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, nor shall any such Person be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof (including the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral). Neither Lender nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any loss, damages, depreciation or other diminution in the value of any of the Collateral that may occur as a result of or in connection with or that is in any way related to any exercise, except in respect of any damages attributable solely to any such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Each Grantor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from or relating to the use, sale or other disposition of the Collateral. The Obligations shall not be affected by any failure of Lender to take any steps to perfect the security interest granted hereunder or to collect or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral release any Grantor from any of its Obligations.

ARTICLE VI
REMEDIES

SECTION 6.1. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) Lender may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it (including, without limitation, as provided in Section 5.1), all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the U.C.C. and also may:

(i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon the request of Lender forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Lender and make it available to Lender at its premises or another place designated by Lender (whether or not the U.C.C. applies to the affected Collateral);

(ii) without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, obtaining a final judgment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by Law referred to below) to or upon each Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Lender’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as Lender may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by Law, 10 days’ prior notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Lender may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by Lender until the sale price is paid by the purchase or purchasers thereof, but Lender shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by Law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section, Lender may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of each Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to Lender from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and Lender may upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to such Grantor therefor;

(iii) with respect to the Intellectual Property, on demand, to cause the security interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Collateral by each Grantor to Lender, or to license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any such Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as Lender shall determine (other than in violation of any then existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained);

(iv) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Collateral and without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Collateral may be located and occupy (without the requirement to pay rent) the same until the Secured Obligations are paid in full in cash (on terms and pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender); and

(v) to notify any or all depository institutions with which any Investment Accounts are maintained to remit and transfer all monies, securities and other property on deposit in such Investment Accounts or deposited or received for deposit thereafter to Lender, for deposit in the Collateral Account or such other accounts as may be designated by Lender, for application to the Secured Obligations as provided herein.

(b) Without limiting clause (a), Lender may exercise any and all rights and remedies of Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, including the right to sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time for payment of, modify or amend the terms of, compromise or settle for cash, credit, or otherwise upon any terms, grant other indulgences, extensions, renewals, compositions, or releases, and take or omit to take any other action with respect to the Collateral, any security therefor, any agreement relating thereto, any insurance applicable thereto, or any Person liable directly or indirectly in connection with any of the foregoing, without discharging or otherwise affecting the liability of Grantors for the Obligations or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the Assigned Agreements or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including any and all rights of Grantors to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, any Collateral.

SECTION 6.2. Application of Proceeds. All cash proceeds received by Lender in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of Lender, be held, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, by Lender as additional collateral security for all or any part of the Secured Obligations, and/or then or at any time thereafter shall be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to Lender pursuant to Section 15 of the Loan Agreement and Section 6.3 hereof) in whole or in part by Lender against all or any part of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by Lender and remaining after payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations (on terms and pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender), shall be paid over to the Grantors or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

SECTION 6.3. Indemnity and Expenses. Each Grantor agrees to jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Lender and its directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates and their Related Parties from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities arising out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from any such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Grantor will promptly following demand pay to Lender the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which Lender may incur in connection with (a) the administration of this Agreement, (b) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (c) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Lender hereunder or (d) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

SECTION 6.4. Grant of License. Each Grantor hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or licensed or hereafter acquired or licensed by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located throughout the world, for such terms, on such conditions and in such manner as Lender shall determine, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, and including in such license reasonable 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; provided, however, that no such license or sublicense is granted in the case of any such Collateral if such license or sublicense would be prohibited by, or give rise to a right to terminate any contract governing such Collateral. The use of such license or sublicense by Lender shall be exercised, at the option of Lender, only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by Lender in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each applicable Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.
