Inventory which constitute Collateral in accordance with its rights provided for
in this
Page 4

------------
instruments representing or evidencing the Collateral shall be delivered to and
held by or on behalf of Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for
transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to
Agent. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the right,
at any time in its discretion and without notice to Debtor, to transfer to or to
register in the name of Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the
Collateral. In addition, after the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent
shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments
representing or evidencing Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller
or larger denominations.

been delivered to Agent.
(f) No consent of any other Person and no authorization, approval or other
action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority is

law, rule, regulation or contractual obligations of Debtor, except as
contemplated hereby and except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(j) No action, suit or proceeding of or before any court, arbitrator or any
governmental body, agency or official is pending or, to the knowledge of Debtor,
threatened by or against Debtor or against any of its properties or revenues

COVENANTS
---------
3.01. Further Assurances. (a) Debtor agrees that, where any agreement
existing as of the date hereof or hereafter to which Debtor is a party contains
any restriction prohibiting Debtor from granting any security interest under

enable Debtor to effectively grant to Agent such security interest under this
Security Agreement.
(b) Debtor will from time to time at its expense promptly execute and
deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that
may be necessary, or that Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and

benefits of this Security Agreement and the rights and powers of Agent herein
granted, or to enable Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies
hereunder with respect to any of the Collateral. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, upon written request by Agent, Debtor will: (i)
xxxx conspicuously each item of Chattel Paper included in Accounts:
THIS INSTRUMENT IS SUBJECT TO A SECURITY INTEREST AND LIEN PURSUANT TO A
SECURITY AGREEMENT (AS THE SAME MAY BE MODIFIED OR RESTATED) MADE BY
____________, IN FAVOR OF NATIONSBANK OF TEXAS, N.A., AS AGENT
or such other legend, in form and substance satisfactory to and as specified by
Agent, indicating that such item of Chattel Paper is subject to the pledge,
assignment and security interest granted hereby; (ii) if any Collateral shall be
evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument or be Chattel Paper, deliver
to Agent such note, instrument or Chattel Paper, duly endorsed and accompanied
by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and
substance satisfactory to Agent; and (iii) execute and file such financing or
continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or
notices, as may be necessary, or as Agent may request, in order to perfect and

granted hereby with respect to any and all the Collateral.
(c) Debtor hereby authorizes Agent to file one or more financing or
continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to all or any part of
the Collateral without the signature of Debtor where and to the extent permitted
by applicable law. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Security Agreement
or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be
sufficient as a financing statement where and to the extent permitted by
applicable law.
Page 7
(d) Debtor will furnish to Agent from time to time, upon the written
request of Agent, statements and schedules further identifying and describing
the Collateral, and such other reports in connection with the Collateral, as
Agent may reasonably request.
(e) In addition to such other information as shall be specifically provided
for herein, Debtor shall furnish to Agent such other information with respect to
the Collateral as Agent may reasonably request from time to time in connection
with the Collateral, or the protection, preservation, maintenance or enforcement
of the security interest or the Collateral, including, without limitation, all
documents and things in Debtor's possession, or subject to its demand for
possession, related to the Collateral.
(f) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Debtor shall, if
any of the monies or property pledged or required to be pledged under Section
-------
1.01 are received by Debtor, forthwith transfer and deliver to Agent such money
----
or property received by Debtor, all of which thereafter shall be held by Agent,
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as part of the Collateral.
3.02. Inventory and Equipment.
(a) Debtor shall keep all of the Inventory (other than Inventory sold or
displayed in the ordinary course of business) at the place or places specified
therefor in Section 2.01(a) or, upon thirty days' prior written notice to Agent,
---------------
at such other places in such jurisdiction where all action required by Section
-------
3.01 shall have been taken with respect to such transferred Inventory.
----
(b) Debtor shall pay all property and other taxes, assessments and
governmental charges or levies imposed upon, and all claims (including claims
for labor, materials and supplies) against the Collateral pledged by it
hereunder as provided in the Agreement.
3.03. Insurance. Debtor will, at its own expense, maintain, or cause to
be maintained, insurance on the Collateral as provided in the Agreement, with
Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) being named as loss payee and additional
insured on all insurance policies which pertain to the Collateral. If Debtor
fails to perform or observe any applicable covenants as to insurance on any of
such Collateral, Agent may, upon notice to Debtor, at its own option obtain
insurance on such Collateral, and any premium therefor paid by Agent shall
become part of the Obligations and shall bear interest prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Default at the interest rate then applicable to the Credit
Facility and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, at the Default Rate in
effect under the Credit Facility. In the event Agent maintains such substitute
insurance, the additional premium for such insurance shall be due on demand and
payable by Debtor to Agent in accordance with any notice delivered to Debtor by
Agent. Debtor hereby grants Agent a security interest in any refunds of
unearned premiums in connection with any cancellation, adjustment or termination
of any policy of insurance required by Agent and in all proceeds of such
insurance and hereby appoints Agent its attorney-in-fact to, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, endorse any check
or draft that may be payable to
Page 8
Debtor in order to collect such refunds or proceeds. Any such sums collected by
Agent shall be credited, except to the extent applied to the purchase by Agent
of similar insurance, to any amounts then owing on the Obligations.
3.04. Place of Perfection; Records; Collection of Receivables and Chattel
Paper.
(a) Debtor will not (i) change the location of its chief executive office
from that specified in Schedule 1, or (ii) change its name, identity, tax
----------
identification number or corporate structure to such an extent that any
financing statement filed by Agent in connection with this Security Agreement
would become seriously misleading, or (iii) use any trade name other than those
listed on Schedule 2, unless Debtor shall have given prior written notice as
----------
soon as practicable thereof, and prior to effecting any such change Debtor shall
have taken such steps as Agent may deem necessary or advisable to continue the
perfection and priority of the security interest granted pursuant hereto.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.04(b) or in any of the
---------------
other Loan Documents, Debtor shall continue to collect, at its own expense, all
amounts due or to become due Debtor under the Receivables and Chattel Paper. In
connection with such collections, Debtor may take such action as Debtor or Agent
may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the
Receivables and Chattel Paper; provided, however, that Agent shall have the
-------- -------
right upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (without notice to Debtor) to
notify the account debtors or obligors under any or all of the Collateral of the
assignment of such Collateral to Agent and to direct such account debtors or
obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to Debtor
thereunder directly to Agent and, after the occurrence of an Event of Default,
at the expense of Debtor, to enforce collection of any such Collateral and to
adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner
and to the same extent as Debtor shall have been entitled. All amounts and
proceeds received by Debtor in respect of the Collateral after the occurrence of
and during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be received in trust for
the benefit of Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of Debtor
and shall be forthwith paid over to Agent in the same form as received (with any
necessary endorsement) to be held as collateral or applied to the Obligations,
or the Other Lender Obligations, as appropriate. Except prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Default and in accordance with Debtor's normal business policies
and practices in effect on the date hereof, Debtor shall not adjust, settle or
compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable or Chattel Paper, release
wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any credit or
discount thereon.
3.05. Other Liens. Debtor shall not create or permit to exist any lien,
security interest, option or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to
any of the Collateral, except for the security interests in favor of Agent under
this Security Agreement or any lien permitted under the Agreement.
3.06. Rights to Distributions. If Debtor shall become entitled to receive
or shall receive any interest in or certificate (including, without limitation,
any interest in or certificate
Page 9
representing a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase,
or reduction of capital, or issued in connection with any reorganization), or
any option or rights arising from or relating to any of the Collateral, whether
as an addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for
any of the Collateral, or otherwise, Debtor agrees to accept the same as Agent's
agent and to hold the same in trust on behalf of and for the benefit of Agent,
and to deliver the same immediately to Agent in the exact form received, with
appropriate undated stock or similar powers, duly executed in blank, to be held
by Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as Collateral. Agent shall be entitled
to all distributions, and to any sums paid upon or in respect of any Collateral,
upon the liquidation, dissolution, or reorganization of the issuer thereof which
shall be paid to Agent to be held by it as additional collateral security for
the Obligations and the Other Lender Obligations and application to the
Obligations and the Other Lender Obligations at the discretion of Agent. All
distributions paid or distributed in respect of the Collateral which are
received by Debtor in violation of this Security Agreement shall, until paid or
delivered to Agent, be held by Debtor in trust as additional Collateral for the
Obligation and the Other Lender Obligations.
3.07. Maintenance of Records. Debtor will keep and maintain at its own
cost and expense complete records of the Collateral, including, without
limitation, a record of all payments received and all credits granted with
respect to Receivables.
3.08. Right of Inspection. Each of the Agent and Lenders and its
officers, agents and representatives shall have the right to inspect, Debtor's
books and records upon request of Agent or Lenders and during normal business
hours. Upon notice to Debtor, not more than twice per year, not including a
Fiscal Year Audit, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, each of the
Agent and Lenders and its officers, agents and representatives shall, at the
expense of Debtor, at all reasonable times also have the right to enter into and
upon any premises where any of the Inventory is located for the purpose of
inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting its interests
therein.
3.09. Compliance with Terms of Contracts, etc. Debtor will perform and
comply in all material respects with all its obligations under all its other
contractual obligations relating to the Collateral.
3.10. Payment of Obligations. Debtor will pay promptly when due all taxes
and claims with respect to the Collateral, or in respect of its income or
profits therefrom as provided in the Agreement.
3.11. Limitations on Dispositions of Collateral. Debtor will not sell,
transfer, assign (by operation of law or otherwise), lease, abandon or otherwise
dispose of, or grant an option with respect to, any of the Collateral, or
attempt, offer or contract to do so, except for sales of Inventory in the
ordinary course of business and for full and fair consideration as provided in
the Agreement.
Page 10
3.12. Limitations on Modifications, Waivers, Extensions of Agreements
Giving Rise to Accounts and Contracts. Debtor will not (i) amend, modify,
terminate or waive any provision of any contract or any agreement giving rise to
a Receivable in any manner, except in the ordinary course of business or (ii)
fail to exercise promptly and diligently each and every material right which it
may have under each contract and each agreement giving rise to a Receivable.
ARTICLE IV
RIGHTS AND POWERS OF AGENT
--------------------------
4.01. Agent May Perform. If Debtor fails to perform any agreement
contained herein, Agent may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, itself
perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Agent
incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Debtor as provided in
Section 4.05.
------------
4.02. Limitation on Agent's Duties. The powers conferred on Agent
hereunder are solely to protect the interests of Agent and the Lenders in the
Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or any Lender to exercise
any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in the
possession of Agent or any Lender and the accounting for monies actually
received by Agent or any Lender hereunder, neither Agent nor any Lender shall
have any duty as to any of the Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action
with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other
matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not Agent or any Lender has or is
deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary
steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to
any reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in the
possession of Agent or any Lender. Except as provided in this Section 4.02,
------------
neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty or liability to protect or
preserve any Collateral or to preserve rights pertaining thereto. Nothing
contained in this Security Agreement shall be construed as requiring or
obligating Agent or any Lender, and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be
required or obligated, to (a) present or file any claim or notice or take any
action, with respect to any Collateral or in connection therewith or (b) notify
Debtor of any decline in the value of any Collateral. The sole duty of Agent
with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the
Collateral in its possession, under Section 9.207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall
be to deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar property for
its own account. Neither Agent nor any Lender, nor any of their respective
directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand,
collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in
doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any
Collateral upon the request of Debtor or otherwise.
4.03. Agent's Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.
(a) Powers. Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent and
------
any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and
lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place
and stead of Debtor and in the name of Debtor or
Page 11
in its own name, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, for the purpose of
carrying out the terms of this Security Agreement, to take any and all
appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which
may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security
Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Debtor hereby
gives Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default the power and right, on behalf of Debtor, without notice to or assent by
Debtor, to do the following:
(1) in the case of any Collateral, in the name of Debtor or its own
name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any
checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of
moneys due under, or with respect to, any Collateral and to file any claim
or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or
otherwise deemed appropriate by Agent for the purpose of collecting any and
all such moneys due or with respect to such Collateral whenever payable;
(2) to pay or discharge taxes and liens levied or placed on or
threatened against the Collateral, to effect any repairs or any insurance
called for by the terms of this Security Agreement and to pay all or any
part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof; and
(3) (i) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the
Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due
thereunder directly to Agent or as Agent shall direct; (ii) to ask or
demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all
moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in
respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (iii) to sign and endorse any
invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse
receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and
other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (iv) to commence
and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any
court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion
thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (v) to
defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Debtor with respect
to any Collateral; (vi) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or
proceeding described in the preceding clause and, in connection therewith,
to give such discharges or releases as Agent may deem appropriate; and
(vii) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with
respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and
completely as though Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes, and to do, at Agent's option and Debtor's expense, at any time,
or from time to time, all acts and things which Agent deems necessary to
protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the liens of Agent
thereon and to effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully
and effectively as Debtor might do.
This power of attorney is power coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable until the Obligations shall have been paid in full or this Security
Agreement shall have been terminated.
Page 12
(b) Other Powers. Debtor also authorizes Agent after the occurrence of and
------------
during the continuance of an Event of Default, at any time and from time to
time, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 4.04, any
------------
endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with
respect to the Collateral.
(c) No Duty on the Part of Agent. The powers conferred on Agent hereunder
----------------------------
are solely to protect the interests of Agent in the Collateral and shall not
impose any duty upon Agent to exercise any such powers. Agent shall be
accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the
exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be responsible to Debtor for any act or failure to act
hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, IT BEING
THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT AGENT SHALL NOT BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR ITS OWN
NEGLIGENCE.
4.04. Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies
granted to Agent or the Lenders in this Security Agreement and in any other
instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Agent, without demand of performance or other
demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any
notice required by law referred to below) to or upon Debtor or any other Person
(all and each of which demands, offenses, advertisements and notices are hereby
waived), may in such circumstances forthwith take possession of, assemble,
collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part
thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to
purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof
(or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or
private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board or office of Agent or
elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such
prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without
assumption of any credit risk. Agent shall have the right upon any such public
sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale
or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of
any right or equity of redemption in Debtor, which right or equity is hereby
waived and released. Debtor further agrees, at Agent's request, to assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Agent at Debtor's premises. Agent shall
apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every
kind incurred therein or incidental to the possession, assembly, preparation for
sale or other disposition, care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in
any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of Agent hereunder, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, to the payment
in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Agent may elect, and,
to the extent of the payment in full of the Obligations, the Other Lender
Obligations, pari passu, and only after such application and after the payment
by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Agent
account for the surplus, if any, to Debtor. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, Debtor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire
against Agent or any Lender arising out of the exercise of any rights hereunder.
It shall not be necessary that
Page 13
Agent take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof prior to the time
that any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.04 is conducted, and
------------
it shall not be necessary that the Collateral or any part thereof be present at
the location of such sale. If any notice of a proposed sale or other
disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed
reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other
disposition. Debtor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of
any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the
Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by Agent to
collect such deficiency.
(b) Louisiana proceedings. In the event that Agent elects to commence
---------------------
appropriate Louisiana foreclosure proceedings under this Security Agreement
after an Event of Default has occurred, Agent may cause the Collateral, or any
part or parts thereof, provided such Collateral is located within the state of
Louisiana, to be immediately seized wherever found, and sold, whether in term of
court or in vacation, under ordinary or executory process, in accordance with
applicable Louisiana law, to the highest bidder for cash, with or without
appraisement, and without the necessity of making additional demand upon or
notifying Debtor or placing Debtor in default, all of which are expressly
waived. For purposes of foreclosure under Louisiana executory process
procedures, Debtor confesses judgment and acknowledges to be indebted unto and
in favor of Agent, in the full amount of all sums secured by this Security
Agreement, including principal, interest, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees,
other fees and charges, and all additional Advances that Agent may make on
Debtor's behalf pursuant to this Security Agreement. To the extent permitted
under applicable Louisiana law, Debtor additionally waives (a) the benefit of
appraisal as provided in Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724 of the Louisiana
Code of Civil Procedure, and all other laws with regard to appraisal upon
judicial sale; (b) the demand and three (3) days' delay as provided under
Articles 2639 and 2721 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure; (c) the notice
of seizure as provided under Articles 2293 and 2721 of the Louisiana Code of
Civil Procedure; (d) the three (3) days' delay provided under Articles 2331 and
2722 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure; and (e) all other benefits
provided under Articles 2331, 2722 and 2723 of the Louisiana Code of Civil
Procedure and all other Articles not specifically mentioned above. Should any
or all of the Collateral be seized as an incident to an action for the
recognition or enforcement of this Security Agreement, by executory process,
sequestration, attachment, writ of fieri facias or otherwise, Debtor hereby
agrees that the court issuing any or any person or entity named by Agent at the
time such seizure is requested, or any time thereafter, as keeper of the
Collateral ("Keeper") as provided under La.-R.S. 9:5136, et.seq. The Keeper
shall be entitled to reasonable compensation. Debtor agrees to pay the
reasonable fees of the Keeper, which are hereby fixed at $150.00 per hour, which
compensation to the Keeper shall also be secured by this Security Agreement in
the form of an additional advance as provided herein. In the event that it
should become necessary for Agent to conduct a search for any of the Collateral
in connection with any foreclosure action, or should it be necessary to remove
the Collateral, or any part or parts thereof, from the premises in which or on
which the Collateral is then located, and/or to store and/or refurbish such
Collateral, Debtor agrees to reimburse Agent for the reasonable cost of
conducting such a search and/or removing and/or storing and/or refurbishing such
Collateral, which additional expense shall also be secured by the lien of this
Security Agreement.
Page 14
4.05. Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Debtor agrees to indemnify Agent and the
Lenders from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs
and expenses of any kind (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of
or resulting from this Security Agreement or the security interest granted
herein, or any of the Collateral (including, without limitation, enforcement of
this Agreement), EXPRESSLY INCLUDING SUCH CLAIMS, LOSSES OR LIABILITIES ARISING
OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER, except claims, losses or
liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent
or any Lender.
(b) Debtor will upon demand pay to Agent the amount of any and all
reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel
and of any experts and agents, which Agent or, as to the matters described in
clauses (iii) or (iv) below, the Lenders may incur in connection with (i) the
administration of this Security Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use
or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any
of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of
Agent or the Lenders hereunder or (iv) the failure by Debtor to perform or
observe any of the provisions hereof. Any such amounts so made shall be a part
of the Obligation, shall be payable upon demand, and if not paid upon demand
shall bear interest at the Default Rate in effect under the Credit Facility.

5.02. Modifications; Amendments; Schedules; Etc. No amendment or waiver
of any provision of this Security Agreement, and no consent to any departure by
Debtor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
