RECITALS:

WHEREAS, several persons (the “Lenders” and each a “Lender”) have agreed to make a loan (the “Loan”) to Debtor in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000,000; and

WHEREAS, the Loan is evidenced by several Secured Promissory Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000,000 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Notes”) dated as of January 20, 2010 and January 22, 2010 from Debtor to the Lenders;

WHEREAS, Collateral Agent requires, and the Pledging Parties are willing to grant, as security for the Loan, a security interest in all their right, title and interest in and to the “Collateral” (as such term is defined in Paragraph 17(b) hereof), to secure the payment and performance by Debtor of the Liabilities (as defined below in Section 2), subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

WHEREAS, the Collateral Agent has requested that the security interest granted hereunder (the “Security Interest”) be senior to the security interest previously granted by certain of the Pledging Parties pursuant to one or more security agreements previously entered into in favor of Icarus Investment Corp. as collateral agent (the “Convertible Collateral Agent”) for the holders of those certain Convertible Secured Promissory Notes, originally issued on or about June 23, 2009 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Convertible Notes”), and the Convertible Collateral Agent is willing to subordinate the security interest granted to it in connection with the Convertible Notes to the Security Interest.

8. Collateral Agent’s Right to Cure. If a Pledging Party shall fail to do any act or thing which such Pledging Party has covenanted to do hereunder, or any covenant, representation or warranty by a Pledging Party shall be breached or violated, Collateral Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, after the expiration of the applicable curative or grace period, if any, except in the case of an emergency, do the same or cause it to be done, or remedy such breach or violation, and if, in connection therewith, Collateral Agent shall make any advances or expenditures of money for the account of such Pledging Party, then there shall be added to the Liabilities the reasonable costs or expenses so paid or incurred by Collateral Agent, and any and all amounts paid or incurred by Collateral Agent in taking any such action shall be repaid to Collateral Agent upon demand being made to such Pledging Party therefor and shall bear interest at the Default Rate, as defined in the Notes, from the date advanced or expended, to and including the date of repayment.

10. Indemnity. Each Pledging Party shall and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect, save and hold forever harmless Collateral Agent, the Lenders and each of their respective agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liability, loss and damage, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, which the Indemnitees, or any of them, may or might incur, suffer or sustain under or by reason of this Agreement and from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against the Indemnitees, or any of them, by reason of any alleged or actual obligations or undertakings on Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement. If any of

6

the Indemnitees shall incur any such liability, loss or damage or by reason of this Agreement, or in the defense of any claims or demands, or otherwise, the amount thereof, including court costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, shall be secured hereby, and the Pledging Parties, jointly and severally, shall, upon demand, immediately reimburse the Indemnitees therefor, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate, from the date of demand until reimbursement is made.

11. Inaction of Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent shall not, in any way, be responsible to any Pledging Party for failure to do any or all of the things for which rights, interests, power or authority are herein granted and assigned to Collateral Agent, nor shall Collateral Agent be required to make an accounting for the benefit of the Pledging Parties, except for monies actually received by Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, each Pledging Party hereby expressly waiving, and releasing Collateral Agent from any and all such responsibility, liability and requirements.

13. Foreclosure or Other Judgments. No judgment or decree which may be entered on any Liabilities shall operate to abrogate or lessen the effect of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the full and final payment and discharge of any and all Liabilities, in whatever form the Liabilities may be, and of any and all costs and expenses incurred and sustained by virtue of the authority herein contained have been fully paid from the proceeds of the Collateral, or until such time as this Agreement may be voluntarily released. This Agreement shall also remain in full force and effect during the pendency of any foreclosure proceedings, both before and after sale, until the issuance of a deed pursuant to a foreclosure decree, unless the Liabilities are fully and finally paid and discharged.

14. No Waiver. No failure on the part of Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights, powers, privileges, interests or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such rights, powers, privileges, interests or remedies by Collateral Agent preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other rights, powers, privileges, interests or remedies. All rights, powers and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, powers or remedies provided in the Note, this Agreement, or any of the Loan Documents, or at law or in equity, and each and all such rights, powers and remedies provided in the Note or this Agreement, or at law or in equity, and each and all such rights, powers and remedies may be pursued or exercised single, successively or cumulatively, at such time or times and in such order as Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect.

15. Release and Discharge. At the time when all Liabilities and all obligations of Debtor hereunder have been fully and finally paid and performed, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. After such termination, if requested by a Pledging Party, Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to such Pledging Party for filing

7

in each office in which any financing statement relative to its Collateral, or any part thereof, shall be filed, a termination statement under the Code and shall also execute and deliver to such Pledging Party a release of any and all of the Collateral for the purpose of releasing Collateral Agent’s interest in the Collateral, all without recourse to or representation, warranty and covenant by Collateral Agent and at the cost and expense of such Pledging Party.
