time to time) which are not in the Bank's possession and which are not

personal family or household purposes between the Debtor or an obligor and the
Bank already in existence on the date hereof or that arises hereafter, unless
the Debtor otherwise expressly agrees.

or any part thereof.
2. OWNERSHIP. Debtor owns, or will use the proceeds of any loans by Bank to
become the owner of, the Collateral free from any setoff, claim, restriction,

paragraph shall be construed to obligate Bank to take any action hereunder nor
shall Bank be liable to Debtor for failure to take any action hereunder. This
appointment shall be deemed a power coupled with an interest and shall not be
terminable as long as the Obligations are outstanding and shall not terminate
on the disability or incompetence of the Debtor.
20. WAIVERS BY DEBTOR. Debtor waives notice of the creation, advance,
increase, existence, extension or renewal of, and of any indulgence with
respect to, the Obligation; waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, and

more times by Bank in its discretion, without notice to Debtor. Debtor waives
any right to require that any action be brought against any other person or to
require that resort be had to any other security or to any balance of any
deposit account. The Debtor further waives any right of subrogation or to
enforce any right of action against any other Debtor until the Obligation is
paid in full.
21. OTHER PARTIES AND OTHER COLLATERAL. No renewal or extension of or any
other indulgence with respect to the Obligation or any part thereof, no release
of any security, no release of any person (including any maker, indorser,
guarantor or surety) liable on the Obligation, no delay in enforcement of
payment, and no delay or omission or lack of diligence or care in exercising
any right or power with respect to the Obligation or any security therefor or
guaranty thereof or under this agreement shall in any manner impair or affect
the rights of Bank under the law, hereunder, or under any other agreement
pertaining to the Collateral. Bank need not file suit or assert a claim for
personal judgement against any person for any part of the Obligation or seek to
realize upon any other security for the Obligation, before foreclosing or
otherwise realizing upon the Collateral for the purpose of paying the
Obligation. Debtor waives any right to the benefit of or to require or control
application of any other security or proceeds thereof, and agrees that Bank
shall have no duty or obligation to Debtor to apply to the Obligation any such
other security or proceeds thereof.
22. COLLECTION AND SEGREGATION OF ACCOUNTS. The Bank hereby authorizes the
Debtor to collect the Collateral, subject to the direction and control of the
Bank, but the Bank may, without cause or notice, curtail or terminate said
authority at any time. Upon notice by the Bank, whether oral or in writing, to
the Debtor, the Debtor shall forthwith upon receipt of all checks, drafts, cash,
and other remittances in payment of or on account of the Collateral, deposit the
same in one or more special accounts maintained with the Bank over which the
Bank alone shall have the power of withdrawal. The remittance of the proceeds of
such Collateral shall not, however, constitute payment or liquidation of such
Collateral until the Bank shall receive good funds for such proceeds. Funds
placed in such special accounts shall be held by the Bank as security for all
Obligations secured hereunder. These proceeds shall be deposited in precisely
the form received, except for the indorsement of the Debtor where necessary to
permit collection of items, which endorsement the Debtor agrees to make, and
which indorsement the Bank is also hereby authorized, as attorney-in-fact, to
make on behalf of the Debtor. In the event the Bank has notified the Debtor to
make deposits to a special account, pending such deposit, the Debtor agrees that
it will not commingle any such checks, drafts, cash or other remittances with
any funds or other property of the Debtor, but will hold them separate and apart
therefrom, and upon an express trust for the Bank until deposit thereof is made
in the special account. The Bank will, from time to time, apply the whole or any
part of the Collateral funds on deposit in this special account against such
Obligations as are secured hereby as the Bank may in its sole discretion elect.
At the sole election of the Bank, any portion of said funds on deposit in the
special account which the Bank shall elect not to apply to the Obligations, may
be paid over by the Bank to the Debtor.
23. COMPLIANCE WITH STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS. Debtor will comply with all State
and Federal laws and regulations applicable to its business, whether now in
effect or hereafter enacted including but not limited to the wage and hours
laws and relating to the use or disposal of hazardous materials and wastes.
F. RIGHTS AND POWERS OF BANK
1. GENERAL. Bank, before or after default, without liability to Debtor may:

representing proceeds of Collateral; contact account debtors directly to verify
information furnished by Debtor; take control of proceeds, including stock
received as dividends or by reason of stock splits; release Collateral in its
possession to any Debtor, temporarily or otherwise; require additional
Collateral; reject as unsatisfactory any property hereafter offered by Debtor
as Collateral; set standards from time to time to govern what may be used as
after acquired Collateral; designate, from time to time, a certain percent of
the Collateral as the loan value and require Debtor to maintain the Obligation

such as cash dividends, interest and proceeds or refunds from insurance, and
use same to reduce any part of the Obligation and exercise all other rights
which an owner of such Collateral may exercise, except the right to vote or

the Collateral or evidence thereof into its own name or that of its nominee;

the Bank, its officers, agents or employees, except willful misconduct and
gross negligence. The foregoing rights and powers of Bank will be in addition
to, not a limitation upon, any rights and powers of Bank given by law,
elsewhere in this agreement, or otherwise. If Debtor fails to maintain any
required insurance, to the extent permitted by applicable law Bank may (but is
not obligated to) purchase single interest insurance coverage for the
Collateral which insurance may at Bank's option (i) protect only Bank and not
provide any remuneration or protection for Debtor directly and (ii) provide
coverage only after the Obligation has been declared due as herein provided.
The premiums for any such insurance purchased by Bank shall be a part of the
Obligation and shall bear interest as provided in B.1.d hereof.
2. CONVERTIBLE COLLATERAL. Bank, may present for conversion any Collateral
which is convertible into any other instrument or investment security or a
combination thereof with cash, but Bank shall not have any duty to present for
conversion any Collateral unless it shall have received from Debtor detailed
written instructions to that effect at a time reasonably far in advance of the
final conversion date to make such conversion possible.
G. DEFAULT
1. EVENT OF DEFAULT. An event of default shall occur if: (i) there is a
loss, theft, damage or destruction of any material portion of the Collateral
for which there is no insurance coverage or for which, in the opinion of the
Bank there is insufficient insurance coverage; or (ii) if Debtor or any other
obligor on the Obligation shall fail to timely and properly pay or observe,
keep or perform any term, covenant, agreement or condition in this agreement or
in any other agreement between Debtor and any other obligor on the Obligation,
including in any other note or instrument, loan agreement, security agreement,
deed of trust, mortgage, promissory note, assignment or other agreement or
instrument concerning the Obligation.
2. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If any Event of Default shall occur, then, in each
and every such case, the Bank may, without presentment, demand, or protest;
notice of default, dishonor, demand, non-payment, or protest; notice of intent
to accelerate all or any part of the Obligation; notice of acceleration of all
or any part of the Obligation; or notice of any other kind, all of which Debtor
hereby expressly waives, (except for any notice required under this agreement,
any other loan document or applicable law); at any time thereafter exercise
and/or enforce any of the following rights and remedies:
a) POSSESSION AND COLLECTION OF COLLATERAL. At its option: (i) take
possession or control of, store, lease, operate, manage, sell or otherwise
dispose of, all or any part of the Collateral; (ii) notify all parties under any
account or contract right forming all or any part of the Collateral to make any
payments otherwise due to the Debtor directly to the Bank; (iii) in the Bank's

chattel paper, documents, or instruments forming all or any part of the
Collateral; (v) make formal application for transfer to the Bank (or to any
assignee of the Bank to any purchaser of any of the Collateral) of all of the
Debtor's permits, licenses, approvals, agreements, and the like relating to the
Collateral or to the Debtor's business; (vi) take any other action which the
Bank deems necessary or desirable to protect and realize upon its security
interest in the Collateral; and (vii) in addition to the foregoing, and not in
substitution therefor, exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies
exerciseable by the Bank under any other provision of this agreement, under any
of the other loan documents, or as provided by applicable law (including,
without limitation, the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in North Carolina
(hereinafter referred to as the "UCC")). In taking possession of the Collateral
the Bank may enter the Debtor's promises and otherwise proceed without legal
process, if this can be done without breach of the peace. The Debtor shall, upon
the Bank's demand, promptly make the Collateral or other security available to
the Bank at a place designated by the Bank, which place shall be reasonably
deemed convenient to both parties.
The Bank shall not be liable for, nor be prejudiced by, any loss, depreciation
or other damages to the Collateral, unless caused by the Bank's willful and
malicious act. The Bank shall have no duty to take any action to preserve or
collect the Collateral.
b) RECEIVER. Obtain the appointment of a receiver for all or any of the
Collateral, the Debtor hereby consenting to the appointment of such a receiver
and agreeing not to oppose any such appointment.
c) RIGHT OF SET OFF. Without notice or demand to the Debtor, set off and
apply against any and all of the Obligations any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) and any other indebtedness, at
any time held or owing by the Bank to or for the credit of the account of the
Debtor.
Bank shall be entitled to immediate possession of all books and records
evidencing any Collateral or pertaining to chattel paper covered by this
agreement and it or its representatives shall have the authority to enter upon
any premises upon which any of the same, or any Collateral, may be situated and
remove the same therefrom without liability. Bank may surrender any insurance
policies in Collateral and receive the unearned premium thereon. Debtor shall
be entitled to any surplus and shall be liable to Bank for any deficiency. The
proceeds of any disposition after default available to satisfy the Obligation
shall be applied to the Obligation in such order and in such manner as Bank in
its discretion shall decide.

respect to any of the Obligation or Collateral not so assigned or transferred.
All representations, warranties and agreements of Debtor if more than one are
joint and several and all shall be binding upon the personal representatives,

or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in
