Security Interests; Cross Collateralization. 2.1 Grant of Security Interests. As security for the full and punctual payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations, whether pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise, each Grantor hereby pledges, transfers and assigns to Lender (and its successors and assigns), and grants to Lender (and its successors and assigns) security interests in, (a) all of the Collateral now or hereafter owned by it (or to which it has any right, title or interest), wherever located and whether now existing or hereafter created, and (b) all accessions and additions thereto, replacements and substitutions therefor, and proceeds and products thereof. The security interests granted hereby, and all remedies and other rights stated or referred to in this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, shall continue in full force and effect until the later of (i) the termination of the Revolving Line of Credit or (ii) the full, final and indefeasible payment and performance of the Obligations. Each Grantor agrees that all of the Collateral now or hereafter owned by it (or to which it has any right, title or interest) constitutes equal security for all of the Obligations of such Grantor, and agrees that Lender shall be entitled to sell, retain or otherwise deal with any or all of such Collateral, in any order or simultaneously as Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, free of any requirement for the marshalling of assets or other restriction upon Lender in dealing with such Collateral.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Security Agreement secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by a Grantor to Lender under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Grantor. 2.2 Cross Collateralization. The Collateral of each Grantor secures all the Obligations and all other obligations now or hereafter outstanding under all other agreements between any Grantor and Lender or any of its Affiliates, and the collateral pledged under any such other agreement with Lender or any of its Affiliates secures the Obligations. -3- <PAGE> 2.3 Further Assurances. Each Grantor shall execute and deliver such financing statements and other Documents (in form and substance satisfactory to Lender) and take such other actions as Lender may request from time to time in order to create, perfect or continue the security interests and other Liens provided for by this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents under the UCC or other laws of the State of New York or under any other state or federal law, including, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the Liens created hereby or thereby. Each Grantor also hereby authorizes Lender to file any such financing or continuation statement, and all other types of Documents required to be filed to perfect any of the Liens granted herein, without the signature of such Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in any jurisdiction. 2.4 Collection and Remittance. Each Grantor, jointly and severally, covenants and agrees that at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall (a) receive in trust for and as the property of Lender all payments on its Accounts, whether for the sale of goods or performance of services or otherwise, all other similar payments on its Inventory, and all similar payments, in each case whether cash, checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other forms of payment, and all chattel paper and (b) deliver such payments and chattel paper to Lender forthwith in the identical form in which received (except for its endorsement when required).

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Security Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Lender of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreement included in the Collateral and (c) Lender shall not have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any Lender be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. 3. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to Lender that, knowing and intending that Lender will rely thereon in making the Loans that the following statements are true, complete and correct: 3.1 Accounts.

No amount payable to any Grantor under or in connection with any of the -4- <PAGE> Accounts is evidenced by an instrument or chattel paper which has not been delivered to Lender and endorsed by such member in form and substance satisfactory to Lender. 3.2 Books and Records. Each Grantor maintains its books and records relative to its Accounts, its Inventory, its Equipment and all other Collateral at one or more of the locations listed on Schedule 3.2. 3.3 Location of Collateral.

Grantors have good and marketable title to all of the Collateral as sole owner thereof, free and clear of any Lien, except the Permitted Liens. None of the Collateral is subject to any prohibition against encumbering, pledging, hypothecating or assigning the same or requires notice or consent in connection therewith (other than those which have been made or obtained prior to the date hereof). 3.7 Perfected First Priority Liens. This Security Agreement together with the other Collateral Documents is effective to create in favor of Lender, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in all right, title and interest of Grantors in the Collateral.

(c) Lender may purchase any or all of the Collateral at any public sale. Lender may purchase at private sale any of the Collateral that is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed price quotations or otherwise unless prohibited by law.
