DEBTOR FURTHER REPRESENTS, WARRANTS AND AGREES THAT

TITLE TO COLLATERAL.  The statements herein as to Debtor's residence and 
possession and location of the Collateral specifically described herein are 
true, and that Debtor has or will acquire title thereto free and clear of all 
liens, encumbrances and security interest except the security interest hereby 
given to Second Party and other rights, if any, of Secured Party, and Debtor 
will defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons.

SALE OR ENCUMBRANCE OF COLLATERAL.  Without prior written consent of Secured 
Party, Debtor will not sell, exchange, lease or otherwise dispose of the 
Collateral or any of the Debtor's rights therein or under this agreement, or 
permit any lien or security interest to attach to same except that created by 
this agreement and other rights, if any, of Secured Party.

MAINTENANCE OF COLLATERAL.  Debtor will maintain the Collateral in good 
condition and repair but without permitting any lien to affix to the Collateral 
as a result thereof, and will pay and discharge all taxes, levies and other 
impositions levied thereon as well as the cost of repairs to or maintenance of 
the same and not permit anything to be done that may impair the value of any of 
the Collateral. If Debtor fails to pay such sums, Secured Party may do so for 
the Debtor's account, adding the amount thereof to the other amounts secured 
hereby.

INSURANCE OF COLLATERAL.  Debtor shall procure, keep in force, and pay for,
insurance on said collateral, in such amounts and forms, and against such risks,
and with such insurers as may be acceptable to Secured Party and such polices
evidencing said insurance shall be furnished to Secured Party. If Debtor fails
to furnish said insurance or fails to pay the premiums thereof, Secured Party
may do so or may obtain insurance of its interest only, adding the amount of any
such premium thereof to other amounts secured hereby; however, Secured Party is
under no obligation nor duty to pay such premiums or obtain insurance. Debtor
hereby assigns to Secured Party any return or unearned premiums which may be due
upon cancellation of any said policies for any reason whatsoever, and directs
the insurers to pay Secured Party any amount so due, unless the Secured Party
has been previously fully satisfied. In order to collect such return or unearned
premiums or the benefits of such insurance, the Secured Party or any of its
officers, agents or employees are hereby appointed Debtor's attorney-in-fact to
endorse any draft or check which may be payable to Debtor; any balance of
insurance proceeds remaining after payment in full of all amounts owing to
Secured Party shall be paid to Debtor. Such return or unearned insurance premium
or the benefits of such insurance, may, at Secured Party's option, be used for
other insurance or to repair, restore or replace the Collateral, or may be
applied to any indebtedness secured hereunder, and if the indebtedness is
payable in installments, then to the installments in reverse order, satisfying
the final maturing installments first.

REMOVAL OF COLLATERAL PROHIBITED.  Debtor will not permit any of the Collateral 
to be removed from the specified location herein, and Debtor will promptly 
notify Secured Party of any change of Debtor's residence, or in the Collateral 
within the state, and Debtor will not remove the Collateral from the county of 
the Debtor's residence or from the county where the Collateral is to be located 
as shown herein without the prior written consent of Secured Party and will 
permit Secured Party to inspect the Collateral at any time.

PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST.  Debtor will pay all costs of filing any 
financing, continuation or termination statements with respect to the security 
interest by this agreement; Secured Party is hereby appointed Debtor's 
attorney-in-fact to do, at Secured Party's option and at Debtor's expense, all 
that is necessary to perfect the security interest created by this agreement 
and to keep the security interest perfected and the Collateral protected, 
including, but not limited to signing the Debtor's name on any financing 
statements or amendments thereto, or the completion of this agreement or of the 
financing statement by inserting information or terms not consistent with the 
parties' agreement. Debtor agrees that a photographic copy or other 
reproduction of this agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement.

IMPAIRMENT OF VALUE.  Debtor will not permit anything to be done that may 
impair the value of any Collateral or the security intended to be afforded by 
this agreement.

DEFAULT.  In the event that: (1) the Debtor: (a) gives false or misleading 
information concerning the warranties or covenants made herein, or reaches 
such warranties or covenants, or (b) voluntarily or involuntarily files any 
proceeding under any provision of the federal Bankruptcy Code, or (c) 
institutes or has commenced against Debtor any proceeding under a state 
insolvency statute for the appointment of a receiver, or (d) makes an 
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes insolvent, or (e) fails to 
procure and furnish proof of, or maintain the insurance required under this 
agreement, or (f) fails to pay promptly when due any Original Indebtedness or 
any other indebtedness secured hereunder, or (2) the Collateral is confiscated 
by any local, state or federal government agency due to its alleged illegal use 
or acquisition, or (3) the Secured Party has any other reasonable cause to 
believe that the Collateral is in jeopardy or that the Original Indebtedness or 
any other indebtedness secured hereunder will not be paid when due, then upon 
the occurrence of any such events, the Debtor shall be in default.

Upon default the Original Indebtedness and all other indebtedness secured under 
this agreement shall become immediately due and payable, at the option of the 
Secured Party, with or without notice to the Debtor and the Secured Party shall 
have the following rights in addition to all other remedies available to it 
under applicable law:

     (1) The Secured Party shall be entitled to possession of the Collateral 
and may, with or without notice to the Debtor, enter any premises where the 
Collateral is located and take possession thereof.

     (2) The Collateral may be sold by the Secured Party at one or more public 
or private sales as the Secured Party may elect. Should the Collateral be 
disposed of by private sale, the Secured Party may bid at any such sale. 
Reasonable notification of the time, place and date of any public sale or, if 
the Collateral is sold by private sale, reasonable notice of the date after 
which such private sale or any other disposition of the Collateral will occur 
shall be provided to the Debtor by the Secured Party.

     (3) The proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the Collateral 
shall be applied as follows: (a) first to the expenses of taking, removing, 
storing and repairing the Collateral and all costs of holding the sale 
(including reasonable attorney's fees), (b) secondly, to liquidating any prior 
liens or claims on the Collateral, and (c) thirdly, the balance will be applied 
to all indebtedness secured under this agreement in any order the Secured Party 
may elect.

     (4) If a deficiency balance should exist after the sale of Collateral on 
any indebtedness secured by this agreement, the Debtor shall immediately pay 
such balance to the Secured Party without further notice or demand. Should all 
indebtedness secured hereunder be fully paid from the proceeds of the sale of 
the Collateral and a surplus exist, the remaining surplus shall be paid to the 
Debtor or the Debtor's order.

     (5) If the Collateral consists of more than one item, the Secured Party 
may dispose of the Collateral as one unit, or each item singularly at different 
times, as the Secured Party may elect.

MISCELLANEOUS. The rights and privileges of the Secured Party under this 
agreement shall inure to the benefits of its successors and assigns. All 
covenants, representations, warranties and agreements of Debtor contained in 
this agreement are joint and several if Debtor is more than one and shall bind 
Debtor's personal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns. If any 
provisions of this agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid or 
unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other 
provision hereof, but this agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or 
unenforceable provision has never been contained herein.
