                                (h)   Counterparts. This Agreement may be
                                      ------------
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same
agreement.

                                (i)   Interpretation. This Agreement is the
                                      --------------

the preparation hereof.

                                (j)   Power of Attorney; Ratification. For the
                                      -------------------------------

continuation statements with respect to liens granted or continuing under the
Loan Documents or hereunder, Borrower and Guarantor, and each of them, hereby
irrevocably makes, constitutes, and appoints Lender as its true and lawful agent

===========================================================================
rights under this sub-paragraph. In the event of a dispute between Lender and
=============================================================================
Borrower and/or Guarantor as to whether the execution such statement(s) is
==========================================================================
properly requested, Borrower and/or Guarantor shall deliver a written objection
===============================================================================
to be received by Lender within five (5) days of Borrower and/or Guarantor's
============================================================================
receipt of Lender's request for execution of such statement, and the parties
============================================================================
shall negotiate in good faith to promptly resolve the objection.
===============================================================

                                      ------------------------------------
Where Lender is obligated hereunder to cause the release of security interests
or liens in the assets, rights, or property of any party, it is understood, and
Lender hereby confirms, that such obligation includes the execution and delivery
of such Uniform Commercial Code termination statements, lien releases,
termination of assignments of trade marks and copyrights, discharges of security
interests, and other similar discharges and release documents (including, if

by the debtor party to release the security interests, financing statements and
all other notices of security interests and liens in favor of Lender or its
