(7) to the Credit Agreement.

(9) Compliance with Law. The Grantors will comply in all material respects with all laws applicable to any or all of their Collateral, except to the extent the failure to comply will not have a material adverse effect on the rights of Bank under this Security Agreement, the priority of the security interest of Bank in their Collateral or the value of their Collateral.

(10) Insurance. The Grantors shall, at their own expense, maintain insurance with respect to all the Equipment and all the Inventory in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with such insurers as are usually carried by companies engaged in the same or similar business as the Grantors and such other insurance as reasonably required by Bank. Each policy  for commercial general liability insurance (a) shall designate Bank as an additional insured and (b) shall provide for all losses to be paid on behalf of Bank and the Grantors as their respective interests may appear. Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by the Grantors may be paid directly to the party who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance. Each policy for property damage insurance shall (a) designate Bank and Grantors as the loss payees and (b) provide for all losses to be paid directly to Bank.

In addition, each such policy shall (a) in the case of a liability policy, name Bank as an insured party under such policy (without any representation or warranty by or obligation upon Bank), (b) contain the agreement by the insurer that any loss under such policy shall be payable to Bank notwithstanding any action, inaction or breach of representation or warranty by any Grantor, (c) provide that there shall be no recourse against Bank for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect to such policy and (d) provide that at least 30 days prior written notice of amendment to, cancellation of or lapse shall be given to Bank by the insurer.

In case of any loss involving damage to Equipment or Inventory Bank will determine whether such insurance proceeds shall be used (a) to make or cause to be made the necessary repairs to or replacements of such Equipment or Inventory or (b) to pay the Secured Obligations, and if there are any contingent Secured Obligations, to provide cash collateral to cover such Secured Obligations.  Provided a Default or Event of Default has not occurred and is not continuing, the Bank shall not unreasonably withhold its consent with respect to any requests of the Grantors to apply the insurance proceeds towards necessary repairs to or replacements of Equipment or Inventory.  If the Bank elects to apply insurance

proceeds towards the payment of the Secured Obligations, the Bank shall apply the insurance proceeds first towards payment of outstanding Line of Credit Loans before any other Secured Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if there are no outstanding Defaults of Events of Default and the amount of insurance proceeds to be received in connection with a loss is equal to or less than $1,000,000, then Bank will make such insurance proceeds available to Grantors and Grantors will use such proceeds to make or cause to be made the necessary repairs to or replacements of such Equipment or Inventory.

(10) Equipment. The Grantors shall cause the Equipment necessary for the conduct of their respective business to be maintained and preserved in good working order, repair and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and shall forthwith, or in the case of any loss or damage to any of their Equipment as quickly as practicable after the occurrence thereof, make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements, and other improvements in connection therewith which are necessary or desirable to so maintain and preserve such Equipment.

(12) Accounts. The Grantors will remain duly qualified in all states where required to enable each Grantor to enforce collection of their respective Accounts due from account debtors in that state. Except as otherwise provided in this Security Agreement, it shall continue to collect, at their own expense, all amounts due or to become due to the Grantors under the Accounts. In connection with such collections, the Grantors may take (and, at Bank's discretion, shall take) such action, as the Grantors or Bank may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Accounts.

(13) Contracts. The Grantors will perform all of their duties and obligations under each contract material to the operation of their respective business. They will require that all other parties to each such contract perform all of their respective duties and obligations.

(a) General Remedies.

Right to Accelerate Obligations Owed to Grantors. To the extent that any obligation to make payment on any Collateral is not then due or a demand for payment has not been made and the Grantors have the right, in accordance with the term of such Collateral, to require or make a demand for payment on such Collateral, Bank has the right to require and to make a demand for payment on such Collateral.

(b) Accounts, Contracts, and Other Collateral. Bank has the right to notify the account debtors or obligors under any Accounts, Contracts and other Collateral of the security interest of Bank in such Account, Contract or other Collateral and to direct such account debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to the Grantors thereunder directly to Bank or to an account designated by Bank and, upon such notification, to enforce collection of any such Accounts, Contracts and other Collateral, and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Grantors might have done. After receipt by the Grantors of such notice from Bank, (a) all amounts and proceeds (including wire transfers, checks and other instruments) received by any Grantor in respect of any Accounts, Contracts, or other Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of Bank under this Security Agreement, shall be segregated from other funds of the Grantors and shall be forthwith deposited to such account or paid over or delivered to Bank in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be held as Collateral, or be applied as provided by this Section, as determined by Bank and (b) the Grantors shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such Account, Contract, or other Collateral or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any discount thereon, other than any discount allowed for prompt payment.

(i) Assembly of Collateral. Bank may require the Grantors to, and the Grantors hereby agree that they will at their expense and upon the request of Bank forthwith, assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by Bank and make it available to Bank at a place to be designated by Bank that is reasonably convenient to both Bank and the Grantors.

(ii) Entering Premises. Bank or its designated agents may enter, with or without judicial process, upon any premises of the Grantors and take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, and remove such Collateral to a location specified by Bank.

(iii) Use of Premises. Bank shall have the right to enter and remain upon each and every location of the Grantors without cost or charge to Bank, and use the same together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Grantors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise.

(c) Sale or Other Disposition of Collateral. Bank may, without notice, except as specified below, sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of and grant options to purchase, lease, license or otherwise acquire, any or all of the Collateral in one or more parcels at public or private sale or other disposition, for cash, on credit, for future delivery or otherwise and upon such other terms, including price, as Bank may deem commercially reasonable.

Notice of Sale or Other Disposition of Collateral. The Grantors agree that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to the Grantors of the time and place of any public or private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Bank shall not be obligated to make any sale of any or all of the Collateral after any notice of sale has been given. Bank may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and to the place to which it was so adjourned.

(d) Commercially Reasonable Sale. The Grantors agree that it is not commercially unreasonable for Bank (a) to restrict the prospective bidders on or purchasers of any of the investment property to a limited number of sophisticated investors who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of any of such investment property, (b) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Bank to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (c) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (d) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (e) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (f) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (g) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Grantors, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (h) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (i) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (j) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (k) to disclaim disposition warranties, including disclaimers of warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like, (l) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Bank against risk of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Bank a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (m) to the extent deemed appropriate by Bank, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Bank in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Grantors agree that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Bank would fulfill the duties of Bank under the UCC of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the exercise by Bank of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Bank shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to the Grantors or to impose any duties on Bank that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.

Proceeds. If any of the Collateral is sold by Bank upon credit or for future delivery, Bank shall not be liable for the failure of the purchaser to purchase or pay for the same and, in the event of any such failure, Bank may resell such Collateral. In no event shall the Grantors be credited with any part of the proceeds of sale of any Collateral until and to the extent cash payment in respect thereof has actually been received by Bank. To the extent any of the Secured Obligations are contingent, cash proceeds received by Bank in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of Bank, be held by Bank as collateral for such contingent Secured Obligations. Any cash held by Bank as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Bank in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of Bank, be applied, first, to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Bank in connection with or incident to the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any and all of the Collateral, second, to pay all reasonable attorney’s fees and legal expenses incurred by Bank in connection with or incident to the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any and all of the Collateral, third, to pay all matured and unpaid Secured Obligations, in whole or in part by Bank against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations in such order as Bank shall elect, fourth, if and to the extent any of the Secured Obligations are unmatured or contingent, to provide cash collateral for all such Secured Obligations, and fifth, in accordance with applicable law. If the proceeds of the sale of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all of the Secured Obligations, the Grantors agree to pay upon demand any deficiency to Bank.

Bank shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies under this Security Agreement. A waiver by Bank of any right or remedy under this Security Agreement on any one occasion, shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right or remedy which Bank would have had on any future occasion nor shall Bank be liable for exercising or failing to exercise any such right or remedy.

Section 12. Appointment of Bank Attorney-in-Fact. The Grantors hereby irrevocably appoint Bank attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Grantors and in the name of the Grantors, Bank or otherwise (1) to take any and all action and exercise all rights and remedies granted to Bank under this Security Agreement and (2) execute any instrument which Bank may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purpose of this Security Agreement.

The Grantors hereby ratify and approve all acts of Bank as their attorney in-fact pursuant to this Section, and Bank, as their attorney in-fact, will not be liable for any acts of commission or omission, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law, other than those which result from Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as this Security Agreement remains in effect.

Bank agrees not to exercise its rights under this Section unless there is an outstanding Event of Default.

Section 13. Grantors Remain Liable. In all events, including the exercise by Bank of any of the rights under this Security Agreement, the Grantors remain liable to perform all of their duties and obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral to which

they are a party to the same extent as if this Security Agreement had not been executed. Bank shall not have any obligation or liability under any such contracts and agreements by reason of this Security Agreement, nor shall Bank be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Grantors under, or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim or rights under, any such contract or agreement.

The powers conferred on Bank under this Security Agreement are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it under this Security Agreement, Bank shall not have any duty as to any such Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any such Collateral.

Section 14. Indemnity and Expenses. The Grantors agree to indemnify Bank and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities growing out of or resulting from this Security Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Security Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the person to be indemnified. The Grantors will upon demand pay to Bank the amount of any and all expenses, including the reasonable fees and out of pocket disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which Bank may incur in connection with (1) any amendment to this Security Agreement, (2) the administration of this Security Agreement, (3) filing or recording fees incurred with respect to or in connection with this Security Agreement, (4) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (5) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Bank under this Security Agreement, or (6) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions of this Security Agreement.

Section 15. Amendments. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement nor consent to any departure by any Grantor from this Security Agreement shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 16. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for under this Security Agreement shall be given in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Section 17. Continuing Security Interest, Transfer of Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the fact that there may be no Secured Obligations outstanding from time to time, this Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in all of the Collateral. This Security Agreement shall be binding upon the Grantors, their successors and assigns, and inure to Bank and its successors, transferees and assigns. No Grantor may transfer or assign its obligations under this Security Agreement. Bank may assign or otherwise transfer all or a portion of its rights or obligations with respect to the Secured Obligations to any other party, and such other party shall then become vested with all the benefits in respect of such transferred Secured

The Grantors hereby waive personal service by manual delivery and agree that service of process may be made by prepaid certified mail directed to the Grantors at the address of the Grantors for notices under this Security Agreement or at such other address as may be designated in writing by the Grantors to Bank, and that upon mailing of such process such service will be effective as if the Grantors were personally served. The Grantors agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any manner provided by law. The Grantors further waive any objection to venue in any such action or proceeding on the basis of inconvenient forum. The Grantors agree that any action on or proceeding brought against Bank shall only be brought in such courts.

Section 19. Set-off. The Grantors agree that, in addition to, and without limiting, any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim Bank may otherwise have, Bank shall be entitled, at its option and without notice to the Grantors after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by it for the account of the Grantors, at any of the offices of Bank, in Dollars or any other currency, against any amount payable by the Grantors to Bank under this Security Agreement which is not paid when demanded (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Grantors).
