4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
-----------------------------
4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower grants and pledges to Bank a
--------------------------
continuing security interest in all presently existing and hereafter acquired
or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt payment of any and all
Obligations (which Obligations shall include, without limitation, all
obligations of the Borrower to the Bank under the Domestic Loan Documents) and
in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and
duties under the Exim Loan Documents and Domestic Loan Documents. Except as set
forth in the Schedule, such security interest constitutes a valid, first
priority security interest in the presently existing Collateral, and will
constitute a valid, first priority security interest in Collateral acquired
after the date hereof. Borrower acknowledges that Bank may place a "hold" on any
Deposit Account pledged as Collateral to secure the Obligations. Notwithstanding
termination of this Agreement Banks Lien on the Collateral shall remain in
effect for so long as any Obligations are outstanding. Upon termination of this

documents and take all actions reasonably requested by Borrower in evidence
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly acknowledged and agreed
that the security interest created in this Exim Agreement in all of the
Collateral (with the exception of both Exim Eligible Foreign Accounts and

actually made by the Bank to the Borrower based upon such Exim Eligible Foreign
Accounts and Eligible Export-Related Inventory), is subject to and subordinate
to the security interest granted to the Bank in the Domestic Agreement and the
Permitted Liens (as defined in the Domestic Agreement or the Borrower Agreement)
with respect to the Collateral.
4.2 Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Borrower shall from
---------------------------------------------
time to time execute and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all financing
statements and other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form
satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue perfected Bank's security
interests in the Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the
transactions contemplated under the Exim Loan Documents.
4.3 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during the
----------------
continuance of an Event of Default Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank
(and any of Bank's designated officers or employees) as Borrower's true and

(b) endorse Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security
that may come into Bank's possession; (c) sign the name of Borrower on any of
the documents described in Section 4.2 (regardless of whether an Event of

respective officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable
prior notice, from time to time during Borrower's usual business hours, without

9.4 Remedies Cumulative. Bank's rights and remedies under this Exim
-------------------
Agreement, the Exim Loan Documents, the Domestic Loan Documents and all other
agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies
not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No
exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no
waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a
continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or
acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a
written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
9.5 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during the
-----------------
continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank
(and any of Bank's designated officers, or employees) as Borrower's true and
lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify
account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse
Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may
come into Bank's possession; (c) sign Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of
lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and
assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account
debtors; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with
respect to Borrower's policies of insurance; and (e) settle and adjust disputes
and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts
and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; and (f) to file, in its
sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments
thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of Borrower
where permitted by law provided Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign
the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in Section 4.2 regardless
of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as
Borrower's attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank's rights and powers,
being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have
been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to provide advances
hereunder is terminated.
9.6 Accounts Collection. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
-------------------
an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of
Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account.

all payments as Bank's trustee, and if requested or required by Bank,
immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received
from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
9.7 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any
-------------
required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under
the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following: (a)
make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the
Committed Revolving Line as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the
exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies
of the type discussed in Section 6.5 of the Domestic Agreement, and take any
action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid
or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due
and payable and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove
provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank
shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future
or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.
9.8 Bank's Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with
-------------------------------
reasonable banking practices and applicable law, Bank shall not in any way or
manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b)
any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from
any cause: (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of
any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person
whomsoever. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be
borne by Borrower.
