Assignee a first and perfected lien and security interest in the Account (as
hereinafter defined);
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and
legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Assignor hereby agrees
with the Assignee as follows:
1. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the
Assignor hereby assigns, transfers, pledges, conveys and grants to the Assignee,

renewals thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the
"Collateral").
2. The Assignor agrees promptly to execute and deliver all documents and
instruments deemed necessary by the Assignee to perfect the Assignee's security

of sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral and the
exercise of any other right or remedy of the Assignee existing after the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and, to the
extent any such notice is required and cannot be waived, the Assignor agrees
that if such notice is given in the manner and to the address or addresses then
required pursuant to this Assignment at least five (5) Business Days (as defined
in the Second Amended and Restated Lease) before the time of the sale or other
disposition, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and shall fully satisfy any
legal requirements for the giving of said notice.

privilege herein granted and shall not be responsible for failure to do any or
all of the things for which rights, interests, power and authority are hereby
