The Loan Agreement, the Accounts Agreement and all other present and future documents and agreements relating thereto are collectively referred to herein as the "Loan Documents".) This will confirm our agreement as follows: 1. Accounts Agreement. No further loans or extensions of credit will be made under the Loan Agreement, and, instead, all further loans and extensions of credit will be made under the Accounts Agreement. The existing outstanding Letters of Credit issued under the Loan Agreement will, effective on the date hereof, be deemed issued under the Accounts Agreement and will be subject to all the terms and conditions thereof. All of the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement will be replaced by the terms and provisions of the Accounts Agreement, effective on the date hereof, provided that all security interests granted in the Loan Agreement shall continue in full force and effect to secure all "Obligations" as defined in the Loan Agreement. 2. IP Security Agreement. The Intellectual Property Security Agreement between us dated December 27, 2002 (the "IP Security Agreement") shall continue in full force and effect, but with the following modifications: a. All references in the IP Security Agreement to "Loan Agreement" shall be deemed to refer both to the Loan Agreement and to the Accounts Agreement. b. Recital B is hereby deleted from the IP Security Agreement. c. The portion of the IP Security Agreement, which presently reads "To secure its obligations under the Loan Agreement, effective on the earlier of (i) the date the Asset Based Terms go into effect, or (ii) the breach of any of the financial covenants set forth in Section 5.1 of the Schedule to the Loan Agreement," is amended to read as follows: To secure all of its `Obligations' as defined the Loan Agreement, and all of its `Obligations' as defined in the Accounts Receivable Financing Agreement between Grantor and Bank dated on or about June 13, 2003, ..." -1- 3.
