or not Owner is in default of this Agreement), Owner will direct each of its
account debtors to make payments due under the relevant account or chattel paper
directly to a special lock box to be under the control of Lender. Owner hereby
authorizes and directs Lender to deposit into a special collateral account to be
established and maintained with Lender all checks, drafts and cash payments
received in the lock box. All deposits in the collateral account shall
constitute proceeds of Collateral and shall not constitute payment of any
Obligation. At its option, Lender may, at any time, apply finally collected
funds on deposit in the collateral account to the payment of the Obligations in
such order of application as Lender may determine, or permit Owner to withdraw
all or any part of the balance on deposit in the collateral account. If a
collateral account is so established, Owner agrees that Owner will promptly
deliver to Lender, for deposit into the collateral account, all payments on
accounts and chattel paper received by Owner. All such payments shall be
delivered to Lender in the form received (except for Owner's endorsement if

or other third party (including, but not limited to, insurance companies) to pay
any indebtedness or obligation owing to Owner and constituting the Collateral
(collectively "Indebtedness") to Lender whether or not a default exists under
this Agreement. Owner shall diligently collect the Indebtedness owing to Owner
from its account debtors and other third parties until the giving of such
notification. In the event that Owner possesses or receives possession of any
instruments or other remittances with respect to the
Page 2 of 5_____________
Indebtedness following the giving of such notification or if the instruments or
other remittances constitute the prepayment of any Indebtedness or the payment
of any insurance proceeds, Owner shall hold such instruments and other
remittances in trust for Lender apart from its other property, endorse the
instruments and other remittances to Lender, and immediately provide Lender with
possession of the instruments and other remittances. Lender shall be entitled,
but not required, to collect (by legal proceedings or otherwise), extend the
time for payment, compromise, exchange or release any obligor or collateral, or
otherwise settle any of the Indebtedness whether or not an event of default
exists under this Agreement. Lender shall not be liable to Owner for any action,
error, mistake, omission or delay pertaining to the actions described in this
paragraph or any damages resulting therefrom.
12. POWER OF ATTORNEY. Owner hereby appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact
to endorse Owner's name on all instruments and other remittances payable to
Owner with respect to the Indebtedness, including any items received by Lender
in any lockbox account, or other documents pertaining to Lender's actions in
connection with the Indebtedness. In addition, Lender shall be entitled, but not
required, to perform any action or execute any document required to be taken or
executed by Owner under this Agreement. Lender's performance of such action or
execution of such documents shall not relieve Owner from any obligation or cure
any default under this Agreement. The powers of attorney described in this
paragraph are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.
13. USE AND MAINTENANCE OF COLLATERAL. Owner shall use the Collateral
solely in the ordinary course of its business, for the usual purposes intended
by the manufacturer (if applicable), with due care, and in compliance with the
laws, ordinances, regulations, requirements and rules of all federal, state,
county and municipal authorities including environmental laws and regulations
and insurance policies. Owner shall not make any alterations, additions or
improvements to the Collateral without the prior written consent of Lender.
Owner shall ensure that Collateral which is not now a fixture does not become a
fixture. Without limiting the foregoing, all alterations, additions and
improvements made to the Collateral shall be subject to the security interest
belonging to Lender, shall not be removed without the prior written consent of
Lender, and shall be made at Owner's sole expense. Owner shall take all actions
and make any repairs or replacements needed to maintain the Collateral in good
condition and working order.
14. LOSS OR DAMAGE. Owner shall bear the entire risk of any loss, theft,
destruction or damage (collectively "Loss or Damage") to all or any part of the
Collateral. In the event of any Loss or Damage, Owner will restore the
Collateral to its previous condition, replace the Collateral with similar
property acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion, or pay or cause to be paid
to Lender the decrease in the fair market value of the affected Collateral.
Lender has no duty to collect any income accruing on the Collateral or to
preserve any rights relating to the Collateral.
15. INSURANCE. If the original amount of the Obligations is $300 or more,
exclusive of the charges for insurance, and the value of the Collateral to be
insured is $300 or more ($500 or more if the collateral is a motor vehicle), the
Collateral will be kept insured for its full value against all loss or damage
caused by fire, collision, theft or other casualty. If the Collateral consists
of a motor vehicle having a retail value of at least $500, Owner will obtain
comprehensive and collision coverage in amounts at least equal to the actual
cash value of the vehicle with deductibles not to exceed $ n/a. OWNER HAS THE
RIGHT TO PROVIDE SUCH INSURANCE THROUGH AN EXISTING POLICY OR A POLICY
INDEPENDENTLY OBTAINED AND PAID FOR BY OWNER, subject to the right of Lender to
decline the insurance offered by Owner for reasonable cause before credit is
extended. Owner shall assign to Lender all rights to receive proceeds of
insurance not exceeding the amount owed under the obligations described above,
and direct the insurer to pay all proceeds directly to Lender. The insurance
policies shall require the insurance company to provide Lender with at least n/a
days written notice before such policies are altered or cancelled in any manner.
The insurance policies shall name Lender as a loss payee and provide that no act
or omission of Owner or any other person shall affect the right of Lender to be
paid the insurance proceeds pertaining to the loss or damage of the Collateral.
In the event Owner fails to acquire or maintain insurance, Lender (after
providing notice as may be required by law) may in its discretion procure
appropriate insurance coverage upon the Collateral and charge the insurance cost
as an advance of principal under the promissory note. Owner shall furnish Lender
with evidence of insurance indicating the required coverage. Lender may act as
attorney-in-fact for Owner in making and settling claims under insurance
policies, cancelling any policy or endorsing Owner's name on any draft or
negotiable instrument drawn by any insurer
16. INDEMNIFICATION. Lender shall not assume or be responsible for the
performance of any of Owner's obligations with respect to the Collateral under
any circumstances. Owner shall immediately provide Lender with written notice of

officers, employees and agents harmless from all claims, damages, liabilities
(including attorneys' fees and legal expenses), causes of action, actions, suits
and other legal proceedings (collectively "Claims") pertaining to its business
operations or the Collateral including, but not limited to, those arising from
Lender's performance of Owner's obligations with respect to the Collateral or
claims involving Hazardous Materials. Owner, upon the request of Lender, shall
hire legal counsel to defend Lender from such Claims, and pay the attorneys'
fees, legal expenses and other costs to the extent permitted by applicable law,
incurred in connection therewith. In the alternative, Lender shall be entitled
to employ its own legal counsel to defend such Claims at Owner's cost.
17. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS. Owner shall execute and file all tax returns and
pay all taxes, licenses, fees and assessments relating to its business
operations and the Collateral (including, but not limited to, income taxes,

operations and financial condition or the Collateral during normal business
hours. Owner shall provide any assistance required by Lender for these purposes.
All of the signatures and information pertaining to the Collateral or contained
in the books and records shall be genuine, true, accurate and complete in all
respects. Owner shall note the existence of Lender's security interest in its
books and records pertaining to the Collateral.
19. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An Event of Default will occur under this Agreement
in the event that Owner, Borrower, any guarantor or any other third parry
pledging Collateral to secure this Agreement: (a) fails to make any payment
under this Agreement, any other document or instrument relating to the foregoing
or executed in favor of Lender, or under any other indebtedness to Lender when

that: (a) the Collateral is used by anyone to transport or store goods, the
possession, transportation, or use of which, is illegal; (b) Lender reasonably
deems itself insecure or reasonably believes the prospect of payment or
performance is impaired due to a significant decline in the value of any of the
Collateral or a material adverse change in Owner's, Borrower's or any
guarantor's business or financial condition; or (c) any Collateral is destroyed,
damaged or lost in any material respect or is subjected to seizure,
confiscation, or condemnation.
20. RIGHTS OF LENDER ON EVENT OF DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default under this Agreement, Lender shall be entitled to exercise one or
more of the following remedies without notice or demand (except as required by
law): (a) to declare the Obligations immediately due and payable in full, such
acceleration shall be automatic and immediate if the Event of Default is a
filing under the Bankruptcy Code; (b) to collect the outstanding Obligations
with or without resorting to judicial process; (c) to change Owner's mailing
address, open Owner's mail, and retain any instruments or other remittances
constituting the Collateral contained therein; (d) to take possession of any
Collateral in any manner permitted by law; (e) to apply for and obtain, without
notice and upon ex parte application, the appointment of a receiver for the
Collateral without regard to Owner's financial condition or solvency, the
adequacy of the Collateral to secure the payment or performance of the
obligations, or the existence of any waste to the Collateral; (f) to require
Owner to deliver and make available to Lender any Collateral at a place
reasonably convenient to Owner and Lender; (g) to sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral and collect any deficiency balance with or without
resorting to legal process; (h) to set-off Owner's obligations against any
amounts due to Owner including, but not limited to, monies, instruments, and
deposit accounts maintained with Lender; and (i) to exercise all other rights
available to Lender under any other written agreement or applicable law.
Lender's rights are cumulative and may be exercised together, separately, and in
any order. Unless the Collateral is perishable, threatens to decline speedily in
value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will
provide reasonable notification of the time and place of any sale or intended
disposition as required under the Uniform Commercial Code, presently or as
hereafter amended or replaced. Lender has no obligation to clean up or otherwise
prepare the Collateral for sale. Lender may comply with any applicable state or
federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and
compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial
reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If the Collateral consists of
securities, Lender shall be entitled to transfer the securities into the name of
Lender or its designee and to vote the securities. Lender shall be authorized to
notify the issuer of the securities to remit any related dividends, interest and
securities resulting from stock splits, reorganizations and capitalizations
directly to Lender or its designee. In the event that Lender institutes an
action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of a
prejudgment remedy in an action against Owner, Owner waives the posting of any
bond which might otherwise be required. Upon default, Owner shall segregate all
proceeds of Collateral and hold such proceeds in trust for Lender. Lender's
remedies under this paragraph are in addition to those available at common law,
such as offset.
