Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder at any time, up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any one time equal to the principal amount of this Note, provided that no Borrower is in default under any provision of this Note, any other Loan Documents executed in connection with this Note, or any other note or other loan documents now or hereafter executed in connection with any other obligation of any Borrower to Lender, and provided that the borrowings hereunder do not exceed any limitation on borrowings by Borrowers under the Loan Agreement.

Failure to precipitate for Default shall not estop the right to assert for subsequent Defaults.

G. The use of the masculine pronoun herein shall include the feminine and neuter and also the plural. If any provision of this instrument shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective but only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Note.

Each Debtor waives notice of the creation, advance, increase, existence, extension or renewal of: and of any indulgence with respect to, the Obligations; waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, and protest; waives notice of the amount of the Obligations outstanding at any time, notice of any change in financial condition of any person liable for the Obligations or any part thereof: notice of any Event of Default other than as required under the Loan Agreement, and all other notices respecting the Obligations; and agrees that maturity of the Obligations and any part thereof may be accelerated, extended or renewed one or more times by Lender in its discretion, without notice to any Debtor. Each Debtor waives any right to require that any action be brought against any other Debtor or other person or to require that resort be had to any other security or to any balance of any deposit account. Each Debtor further waives any right of subrogation or to enforce any right of action against any other Debtor until the Obligations are paid in full.

n. Compliance with State and Federal Laws. Each Debtor will maintain its existence, good standing and qualification to do business and comply with all laws, regulations and governmental requirements, including without limitation, environmental laws applicable to it or any of its property, business operations and transactions.

6. Default.

a. Event of Default. A default under this Agreement shall occur if: (i) there is a loss, theft, damage or destruction of any material portion of the tangible Collateral for which there is no insurance coverage or for which, in the reasonable opinion of Lender, there is insufficient insurance coverage; (ii) there is a levy upon or execution against any of the Collateral; or (iii) any Debtor 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 such Debtor and Lender, including, but not limited to, any Note, the Loan Agreement, any Rate Management Agreement, any Security Instrument, any certificate, assignment, instrument, document or other Loan Document concerning or related to the Obligations and any applicable notice and cure periods have passed.

b. Rights and Remedies. If any default shall occur under this Agreement, then, in each and every such case, at any time thereafter, Lender, without further: (i) presentment, demand, or protest; (ii) notice of default, dishonor, demand, non-payment, or protest; (iii) notice of intent to accelerate all or any part of the Obligations; (iv) notice of acceleration of all or any part of the Obligations; or notice of any other kind; all of which each Debtor hereby expressly waives, (except for any notice required under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or applicable law), may exercise and/or enforce any of the following rights and remedies at Lender's option:

i. Acceleration. Declare the Obligations to become immediately due and payable, and any duty of Lender to permit further borrowings under the Obligations shall immediately cease and terminate.

ii. Possession and Collection of the Collateral.

(a) Take possession or control of, store, lease, operate, manage, sell, or instruct any agent or broker to sell or otherwise dispose of, all or any part of the Collateral;

(b) notify all parties under any account or contract right forming all or any part of the Collateral to make any payments otherwise due to any Debtor directly to Lender;

(c) in Lender's own name, or in the name of each Debtor, demand, collect, receive, sue for, and give receipts and releases for, any and all amounts due under such accounts and contract rights. Lender shall not be liable for failure to collect any account or instruments, or for any act or omission on the part of Lender, its officers, agents or employees, except for its or their own willful misconduct or gross negligence;

(d) indorse, as the agent of each Debtor, any check, note, chattel paper, documents, or instruments forming all or any part of the Collateral;

(e) make formal application for transfer to Lender (or to any assignee of Lender or to any purchaser of any of the Collateral) of all of each Debtor's permits, licenses, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, patents, approvals, agreements, leases, contracts, titles and the like relating to the Collateral or to a Debtor's business;

(f) If any Debtor fails to maintain any required insurance, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender may (but is not obligated to) purchase single interest insurance coverage for the Collateral which insurance may at Lender's option: (i) protect only Lender and not provide any remuneration or protection for any Debtor directly; and (ii) provide coverage only after the Obligations have been declared due as herein provided. The premiums for any such insurance purchased by Lender shall be a part of the Obligations and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

Security Agreement in Favor of Fifth Third Bank

Page 7

(g) Make any claim under any insurance policy or cancel such insurance, and collect and receive payment and indorse any instrument in payment of loss or return premium or other refund or return, and apply such amounts received, at Lender's election, to replacement of Collateral or to the Obligations.

(h) take any other action which Lender deems necessary or desirable to protect and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral; and

(i) in addition to the foregoing, and not in substitution therefore, exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies exercisable by Lender under any other provision of this Agreement, under any of the other Loan Documents, or as provided by applicable law (including, without limitation, Article Nine). In taking possession of the Collateral Lender may enter any Place of Business of a Debtor and otherwise proceed without legal process, if this can be done without breach of the peace. Each Debtor shall, upon Lender's demand, promptly make the Collateral or other security available to Lender at a place designated by Lender in the County where a Debtor's Place of Business is located. Each Debtor appoints Lender, and any officer thereof, as such Debtor's attorney-in-fact with full power in such Debtor's name and behalf to do every act which such Debtor is obligated to do or may be required to do hereunder; however, nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to obligate Lender to take any action hereunder nor shall Lender be liable to any 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.

Lender shall not be liable for, nor be prejudiced by, any loss, depreciation or other damages to the Collateral, unless caused by Lender's willful and malicious act. Lender shall have no duty to take any action to preserve or collect the Collateral.

iii. Receiver. Obtain the appointment of a receiver for all or any of the Collateral, and each Debtor hereby consents to the appointment of such a receiver as a matter of right, without regard to the value of the Collateral or the solvency of any Debtor and without prior notice and each Debtor waives prior notice and agrees not to oppose any such appointment.

iv. Right of Set Off. Without notice or demand to any 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 Lender to or for the credit of the account of Debtors.

v. Books and Records. Take immediate possession of all books and records evidencing any Collateral or pertaining to chattel paper covered by this Agreement and it

Security Agreement in Favor of Fifth Third Bank

Page 8

or its representatives shall have the authority to enter upon any Place of Business upon which any of the same, or any Collateral, may be situated and remove the same therefrom without liability.

vi. Insurance. Surrender any insurance policies on the Collateral and receive the unearned premium thereon. Debtors shall be entitled to any surplus and shall be liable to Lender for any deficiency. The proceeds of any disposition after default available to satisfy the Obligation may, at Lender's option, be applied to the Obligations first to late tees and Costs, then to interest on the Notes, followed by application to principal on the Notes in such order as Lender shall determine.

c. Disposition of Collateral. Each Debtor specifically acknowledges and agrees that any sale by Lender of all or part of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement may be effected by Lender at times and in manners which could result in the proceeds of such sale as being significantly and materially less than might have been received if such sale had occurred at different times or in different manners, and each Debtor hereby releases Lender and its officers and representatives from and against any and all obligations and liabilities arising out of or related to the timing or manner of any such sale.

If, in the opinion of Lender, there is any question that a public sale or distribution of any Collateral will violate any state or federal securities law, Lender may offer and sell such Collateral in a transaction exempt from registration under federal securities law, and any such sale made in good faith by Lender shall be deemed "commercially reasonable".

Lender shall have no obligation to cleanup or otherwise prepare any Collateral for sale.

Lender's compliance with applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like upon disposition of any Collateral. The disclaimer of any warranty of title shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

If Lender sells any Collateral upon credit, Debtors shall be credited only with the payments actually made by the purchaser thereof, and actually received by the Lender and applied to the obligations of such purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Lender may resell the Collateral and Debtors shall be credited only with the net proceeds of such sale.

Security Agreement in Favor of Fifth Third Bank

Page 9

Lender shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Debtor, or against or payment of: (i) any Note; (ii) any of the other Obligations, or (iii) any other obligation owed to Lender by Debtors and each Debtor waives all claims of marshalling.

7. General.

a. Parties Bound. Lender's rights hereunder shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns. In the event of any assignment or transfer by Lender of any of the Obligations or the Collateral, Lender thereafter shall be fully discharged from any responsibility with respect to the Collateral so assigned or transferred, but Lender shall retain all rights and powers hereby given with respect to any of the Obligations or the Collateral not so assigned or transferred. All representations, warranties and agreements of Debtors shall be binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of Debtors.

b. Waiver. No delay of Lender in exercising any power or right shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No waiver by Lender of any right hereunder or of any default by any Debtor shall be binding upon Lender unless in writing, and no failure by Lender to exercise any power or right hereunder or waiver of any default by any Debtor shall operate as a waiver of any other or further exercise of such right or power or of any further default. Each right, power and remedy of Lender as provided for herein or in any of the Loan Documents, or which shall now or hereafter exist at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by Lender of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Lender of any or all other such rights, powers or remedies.

c. Agreement Continuing. This Agreement shall constitute a continuing agreement, applying to all future as well as existing transactions, whether or not of the character contemplated at the date of this Agreement, and if all transactions between Lender and Debtors shall be closed at any time, shall be equally applicable to any new transactions thereafter.

d. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Debtor hereby waives its rights to a jury trial of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising out of this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and/or the transactions contemplated by this agreement, or any dealings between each Debtor and Lender.

e. Notices. Notice shall be deemed reasonable if mailed postage prepaid at least five (5) days before the related action (or if Article Nine elsewhere specifies a longer period, such

Security Agreement in Favor of Fifth Third Bank

Page 10

longer period) to the address of Debtors listed in the Loan Agreement in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

f. Modifications. No provision hereof shall be modified or limited except by a written agreement expressly referring hereto and to the provisions so modified or limited and signed by Debtors and Lender. The provisions of this Agreement shall not be modified or limited by course of conduct or usage of trade.

g. Applicable Law and Partial Invalidity. This Agreement has been delivered in the State of Florida and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of that State even if Collateral is located outside the jurisdiction of the State of Florida. Wherever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of any Loan Document to any person or circumstance shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances.

h. Financing Statement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral shall be sufficient as a financing statement.

i. Attorney Fees. Should any litigation be commenced between the parties hereto concerning the provisions of this Agreement or the rights and duties of any in relation thereto, the party prevailing in such litigation shall be entitled, in addition to such other relief as may be granted, to a reasonable sum as and for its attoneys' fees in such litigation which shall be determined by the court in such litigation or in a separate action brought for that purpose and such attoneys' fees shall be deemed to include the right to a separate award for paralegal or legal assistant's fees.

j. Headings and Captions. The headings and captions contained in this Agreement shall not be considered to be a part hereof for purposes of interpretation or applying this Agreement but are for convenience only.

k. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

l. Prior Agreements. This Agreement is supplemental to and does not supersede any other security agreement between Lender and any Debtor.
