(f) Perfection of Security Interest in Money and Securities Included in

the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto.
(ii) All certificated securities included in the Collateral shall
either be: (A) (1) delivered to and held by the Collateral Agent and (2)
registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or, if requested by the
Collateral Agent, registered to bearer or in the name of the Collateral Agent's
nominee, or (B) with the consent of the Collateral Agent, delivered to and held
by a clearing corporation or by a custodian or a nominee of either which is
subject to the control of such clearing corporation with which the Collateral
Agent (or its nominee) maintains an account (each of the foregoing, an "Approved
--------
Depository"), in bearer form, indorsed in blank or registered in the name of
- ----------
such Approved Depository, and in each of the foregoing cases in this clause (B),
by appropriate book entry credited to an account in the name of the Collateral
Agent (or its nominee) and subtracted from the account of the Company maintained
with such clearing corporation.
(iii) All instruments, other than certificated securities, included
in the Collateral shall be delivered to and held by the Collateral Agent
pursuant hereto and shall be duly indorsed in blank or to the order of the
Collateral Agent, its nominee or bearer, as the Collateral Agent may request.
(iv) All Government Securities included in the Collateral shall be
registered in the name of the Collateral Agent on the records of the Federal

subtracted from the account of the Company maintained with such Approved
Depository, if a clearing corporation, or with the clearing corporation which
controls such Approved Depository.
(v) The Company shall take such actions as may be necessary to
cause the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Proceeds Account and
any Permitted Investments contained therein to be and remain a first priority
perfected security interest. To the extent as a result of a change of law after
the date hereof, the procedures set forth in Sections 2(f)(ii)-(iv) above are no
longer effective to cause the Collateral Agent's security interest in the
property described in such sections to be perfected, the Company shall be
excused from such requirements, provided it complies with the requirements of
the first sentence of this Section 2(f)(v).
(vi) The terms "money", "certificated securities", "clearing

------------
phrases, clauses, sentences or paragraphs of this Agreement shall not affect the

14
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies
herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by
law.
SECTION 25. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
-------------------------
