Section 5. Records Relating To Collateral. The Debtor will keep its records concerning the Collateral at its offices designated in the caption of this Security Interest Agreement or at such other place or places of business of which the Secured Party shall have been notified in writing no less than ten (10) days prior thereto. The Debtor will hold and preserve such records and chattel paper and will permit representatives of the Secured Party at any time during normal business hours upon reasonable notice to examine and inspect the Collateral and to make abstracts from such records and chattel paper, and will furnish to the Secured Party such information and reports regarding the Collateral as the Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request.

Section 6. General Authority. From and during the term of any Debtor Event of Default, the Debtor hereby appoints the Secured Party the Debtor's lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of the Debtor, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Party, but at the Debtor's expense, to exercise, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral:

(a) to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due;

(b) to receive, take, endorse, assign and deliver all checks, notes, drafts, documents and other negotiable and non- negotiable instruments and chattel paper taken or received by the Secured Party;

(c) to settle, compromise, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto;

(d) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the same or  the proceeds thereof or the related goods securing the Collateral, as fully and effectually as if the Secured Party were the sole and absolute owner thereof;

(e) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto; and

(f) to discharge any taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time placed thereon;

provided, however, that the Secured Party shall give the Debtor not less than ten (10) business days prior written notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of any of the Collateral.

The exercise by the Secured Party or by the Agent of or failure to so exercise any authority granted herein shall in no manner affect Debtor's liability to the Secured Party, and provided, further, that the Secured Party and the Agent shall be under no obligation or duty to exercise any of the powers hereby conferred upon them and they shall be without liability for any act or failure to act in connection with the collection of, or the preservation of, any rights under any of the Collateral.

Section 7. Debtor Events of Default.

(a)The Debtor shall be in default under this Security Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) by the Debtor (a "Debtor Event of Default").

(b)The Debtor hereby irrevocably agrees that, upon the occurrence of a Debtor Event of Default, the Debtor shall be deemed to have consented to an immediate conveyance and transfer to the Secured Party of the copyrights and all other rights the Debtor may have in the software included in the Collateral, including, but not necessarily limited to, the software identified in Schedule B attached hereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, the Debtor will, upon the occurrence of a Debtor Event of Default, deliver to the Secured Party copies of the source code of the relevant software, with accompanying written assignment of the software to the Secured Party.  Without limiting the foregoing, such source code and assignment shall be in form sufficient to enable the Secured Party to register the software in Secured Party’s name with the Copyright Register. The Debtor hereby agrees to take all steps necessary or appropriate, as requested by the Secured Party, to effectuate and reflect such conveyance and transfer or assignment to Secured Party.  In all events, such conveyance, transfer or assignment shall be deemed to vest title in such software in the Secured Party.

(c) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, the Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Party may, upon the occurrence of a Debtor Event of Default, seek the immediate entry of a preliminary injunction prohibiting the Debtor’s use of such software in any shape, way or manner, including, but not necessarily limited to, through the sale of products that use any of such software, and the Debtor hereby irrevocably agrees that it will not contest an application seeking entry of a preliminary injunction and that it will accept the entry of such injunction.

Section 8. Remedies Upon Debtor Event of Default. If any Debtor Event of Default shall have occurred, then in addition to the provisions of Section 7 hereof, the Secured Party may exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. The Secured Party may require the Debtor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party which is reasonably convenient. The Secured Party shall give the Debtor ten (10) business days prior written notice of the Secured Party's intention to make any public or private sale or sale at a broker's board or on a securities exchange of the Collateral. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Secured Party, in its sole discretion, may determine. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice.  The Secured Party 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 adjourned.  The Secured Party, 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 and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.

Section 9. Application of Collateral and Proceeds.  The proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in the following order of priorities: (a) first, to pay the reasonable expenses of such sale or other realization, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, and all expenses, liabilities and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Secured Party in connection therewith, and any other unreimbursed expenses for which the Secured Party is to be reimbursed pursuant to the Section titled “Expenses; Secured Party's Lien”  below; (b) second, to the payment of the Obligations in such order of priority as the Secured Party, in its sole discretion, shall determine;  and (c) finally, to pay to the Debtor, or its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.

Section 10. Expenses; Secured Party's Lien.  If any Debtor Event of Default shall have occurred, the Debtor will forthwith upon demand pay to the Secured Party: (a) the amount which the Secured Party may have been required to pay to free any of the Collateral from any lien thereon; and (b) the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel, and of any agents not regularly in its employ,  which the Secured Party may incur in connection with the collection, sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral.

Section 11. Termination of Security Interests; Release of Collateral.  Upon the payment, performance or other satisfaction in full of all the Obligations, the Security Interests shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Debtor. Upon any such termination of the Security Interests or release of Collateral, the Secured Party will, at the Debtor's expense, to the extent permitted by law, execute and deliver to the Debtor such documents as the Debtor shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of the Security Interests or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be.

Section 12. Notices.  All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (a) personally served, (b) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (c) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (d) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice given in accordance herewith.

The addresses for such communications shall be for (i) the Debtor as provided in the Bridge Loan Agreement for notices  to the Company, (ii) for each Secured Party as provided in the Bridge Loan Agreement for notices to the Lender and (iii) for the Agent as provided in the Bridge Loan Agreement for notices to the Escrow Agent.  Any party hereto may from time to time change its address or facsimile number for notices under this Section in the manner contemplated by the Bridge Loan Agreement.

Section 13.  Agent.

(a) Anything in the other provisions of this Security Interest Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Secured Party may designate another entity to act as agent (the “Agent”) for the Secured Party with respect to any one or more of the rights of Secured Party hereunder, including, but not necessarily limited to, the right to hold the security interest and/or be named as secured party (as agent for the Secured Party) in any filed financing statement and to take action in the name and stead of the Secured Party hereunder.  Such designation may be made with or without power of substitution,  Such designation shall remain in effect until canceled by the Secured Party, as provided herein; provided, however, that such cancellation shall not affect the validity of any action theretofore taken by such agent pursuant to this Security Interest Agreement.  The Debtor acknowledges and agrees to honor such designation and acknowledges that the Agent is acting as the agent of the Secured Party and not as a principal.

(b) Each Secured Party hereby confirms that the Secured Party has designated Krieger & Prager, LLP (acting by Samuel M. Krieger and Ronald Nussbaum, or either one of them), as its initial Agent, with full right of substitution.

(c) If there is more than one Secured Party, the Agent shall act as agent for all Secured Parties.  Any revocation of the authority of the Agent or the designation of an alternate Agent shall be done only by Secured Parties who represent a Majority in Interest of the Holders (as defined below) at that time; provided that at all times all Secured Parties shall be represented by one and the same Agent.  The term “Majority in Interest of the Holders” means, as of the relevant date, one or more Secured Parties whose respective outstanding principal amounts of the Notes held by each of them, as of such date, aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate outstanding principal amounts of the outstanding Notes held by all Secured Parties on that date.

(d) Reference is made to the provisions of Sections 2 through 15, inclusive, of the Joint Escrow Instructions.  All such provisions are incorporated herein by reference, as if set forth herein in full, except that, for such purposes, the references therein to (i) the “Escrow Agent” shall be deemed to be references to the “Agent” under this Security Interest Agreement, (ii) the “Company” shall be deemed to be references to the Debtor under this Security Interest Agreement, and (iii) the “Lender” shall be deemed to be references to the relevant Secured Party under this Security Interest Agreement.

Section 14.  Miscellaneous.

(a) No failure on the part of the Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or remedy under this Security Interest Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Secured Party of any right, power or remedy under this Security Interest Agreement preclude the exercise, in whole or in part, of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies in this Security Interest Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. Neither this Security Interest Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally but only by a statement in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

(b) The execution and delivery by Debtor of this Security Interest Agreement and all documents delivered in connection herewith have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of Debtor and this Agreement and all documents delivered in connection herewith have been duly and validly executed and delivered by Debtor.  The execution and delivery by Debtor of this Security Interest Agreement and all documents delivered in connection herewith will not result in a breach or default of or under the Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws or any agreement, contract or indenture of Debtor.  This Security Interest Agreement and all documents delivered in connection therewith are legal, valid and binding obligations of Debtor enforceable against Debtor in accordance with their terms.

(c) In the event that any action is taken by Debtor or Secured Party in connection with the this Security Interest Agreement, or any related document or matter, the losing party in such legal action, in addition to such other damages as he or it may be required to pay, shall pay reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party.

Section 15.Separability. If any provision hereof shall prove invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction whose laws shall be deemed applicable, the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Secured Party.

Section 16.  Governing Law.

(a) This Security Interest Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws.  Each of the parties consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts whose districts encompass any part of the City of Wilmington or  (except with respect to issues relating to the copyright in and to the software, as contemplated by Section 7 hereof, which shall exclusively be in the aforesaid federal courts) or of the state courts of the State of Delaware sitting in the City of Wilmington in connection with any dispute arising under this Security Interest Agreement and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non coveniens, to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions or to any claim that such venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. To the extent determined by such court, the Debtor shall reimburse the Secured Party for any reasonable legal fees and disbursements incurred by the Secured Party in enforcement of or protection of any of its rights under this Security Interest Agreement.  Nothing in this Section shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(b) The Debtor and the Secured Party acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Security Interest Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Security Interest Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.

Section 16. Jury Trial Waiver.  The Debtor and the Secured Party hereby waive a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising out of or in connection with the Note or this Security Interest Agreement.

Section 17. Assignment.  Except in connection with the transfer of all of the rights of a Secured Party under the Transaction Agreements, a Secured Party shall not assign or transfer its security interest granted hereunder, and, further, upon the occurrence of a permitted transfer of a Secured Party’s security interest in the Collateral, the transferee shall be vested with all of the rights and powers of the assigning Secured Party hereunder with respect to the Collateral.
