          5. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, Calliope may declare all Obligations immediately due and payable and Calliope shall have the remedies of a secured party provided in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York, this Agreement and other applicable law. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, Calliope will have the right to take possession of the Collateral and to maintain such possession on its premises or to remove the Collateral or any part thereof to such other premises as Calliope may desire. Upon Calliope’s request, each of the Assignors shall assemble or cause the Collateral to be assembled and make it available to Calliope at a place reasonably designated by Calliope. If any notification of intended disposition of any Collateral is required by law, such notification, if mailed, shall be deemed properly and reasonably given if mailed at least ten (10) business days before such disposition, postage prepaid, addressed to any Assignor either at such Assignor’s address shown herein or in the Securities Purchase Agreement or at any subsequent address appearing on Calliope’s records for such Assignor. Any proceeds of any disposition of any of the Collateral shall be applied by Calliope to the payment of all expenses in connection with the sale of the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses and disbursements and the reasonable expense of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling, and the like, and any balance of such proceeds may be applied by Calliope toward the payment of the Obligations in such order of application as Calliope may elect, and each Assignor shall be liable for any deficiency.

          6. If any Assignor defaults in the performance or fulfillment of any of the terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions or warranties on such Assignor’s part to be performed or fulfilled under or pursuant to this Master Security Agreement, Calliope may, at its

4


option without waiving its right to enforce this Master Security Agreement according to its terms, immediately or at any time thereafter and without notice to any Assignor, perform or fulfill the same or cause the performance or fulfillment of the same for each Assignor’s joint and several account and at each Assignor’s joint and several cost and expense, and the reasonable cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be added to the Obligations and shall be payable on demand with interest thereon at the highest rate permitted by law.

          7. Each Assignor appoints Calliope, any of Calliope’s officers, employees or any other person or entity whom Calliope may designate as its attorney, with power to execute such documents in its behalf and to supply any omitted information and correct patent errors in any documents executed by any Assignor or on any Assignor’s behalf; to file financing statements against the Assignors covering the Collateral; to sign the name of each Assignor on public records; and to do all other things Calliope deems necessary to carry out this Master Security Agreement.

This power being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as any Obligations remains unpaid.

          8. No delay or failure on Calliope’s part in exercising any right, privilege or option hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such or of any other right, privilege, remedy or option, and no waiver whatever shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Calliope and then only to the extent therein set forth, and no waiver by Calliope of any default shall operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion.

The Assignors shall also jointly and severally pay all of Calliope’s reasonable fees, charges, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel and appraisers, in connection with (a) the preparation, execution and delivery of any waiver, any amendment thereto or consent proposed or executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Documents, (b) Calliope’s obtaining performance of the Obligations under the Documents, including, but not limited to the enforcement or defense of Calliope’s security interests, assignments of rights and liens hereunder as valid perfected security interests, (c) any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any Collateral, (d) any

5

          10. THIS MASTER SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. All of the rights, remedies, options, privileges and elections given to Calliope hereunder shall inure to the benefit of Calliope’s successors and assigns. The term “Calliope” as herein used shall include Calliope, any parent of Calliope’s, any of Calliope’s subsidiaries and any co-subsidiaries of Calliope’s parent, whether now existing or hereafter created or acquired, and all of the terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions and warranties of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall bind the representatives, successors and assigns of each Assignor and each of the foregoing.

          11. Each Assignor hereby consents and agrees that the state of federal courts located in the County of New York, State of New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any claims or disputes between Assignor, on the one hand, and Calliope, on the other hand, pertaining to this Master Security Agreement or to any matter arising out of or related to this Master Security Agreement, provided, that Calliope and each Assignor acknowledges that any appeals from those courts may have to be heard by a court located outside of the County of New York, State of New York, and further provided, that nothing in this Master Security Agreement shall be deemed or operate to preclude Calliope from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to collect the Obligations, to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Calliope. Each Assignor expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and each Assignor hereby waives any objection which it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue or forum non conveniens. Each Assignor hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaint and other process issues in any such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaint and

6


other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such assignor at the address set forth on the signature lines hereto and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier of such Assignor’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

          The parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. Therefore, to achieve the best combination of the benefits of the judicial system and of arbitration, the parties hereto waive all rights to trial by jury in any action, suit, or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise between Calliope, and/or any Assignor arising out of, connected with, related or incidental to the relationship established between them in connection with this Master Security Agreement or the transactions related hereto.

          12. It is understood and agreed that any person or entity that desires to become an Assignor hereunder, or is required to execute a counterpart of this Master Security Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the requirements of any Document, shall become an Assignor hereunder by (x) executing a Joinder Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Calliope, (y) delivering supplements to such exhibits and annexes to such Documents as Calliope shall reasonably request and (z) taking all actions as specified in this Master Security Agreement as would have been taken by such Assignor had it been an original party to this Master Security Agreement, in each case with all documents required above to be delivered to Calliope and with all documents and actions required above to be taken to the reasonable satisfaction of Calliope.

          13. All notices from Calliope to any Assignor shall be sufficiently given if mailed or delivered to such Assignor’s address set forth below.
