BACKGROUND

(A)          Simultaneous with the execution of this Security Agreement, Conn-Selmer, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Conn-Selmer”), and Steinway, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Steinway” and, together with Conn-Selmer, the “Borrowers”), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party thereto are entering into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders will make Loans and other financial accommodations to the Borrowers on the terms set forth therein.

(B)           SMI owns, directly, all of the equity of Conn-Selmer, and Conn-Selmer, either directly or indirectly, as applicable, owns all of the equity of Steinway and the Grantors (other than SMI).

(C)           Pursuant to a Guarantee dated as of the date hereof, each Grantor, among other things, will jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantee to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Borrowers when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(D)          The Borrowers and the Grantors, though separate legal entities, comprise an integrated financial enterprise, and the extension of credit to the Borrowers under the Loan Agreement will inure, directly or indirectly, to the benefit of the Grantors as the successful operation of Grantors is dependent on the continued successful performance of the Borrowers.

(E)           It is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Loan Agreement that the Grantors execute and deliver this Security Agreement to the Administrative Agent.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED and in consideration of the promises and to induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make their respective loans to the Borrowers under the Loan Agreement, each Grantor hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, as follows:

(m)          Changes in Locations, Name, etc.  No Grantor will (i) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 4(f) or remove its books and records concerning the Accounts from the location specified in Section 4(c), (ii) permit any of the Inventory or Equipment to be kept at a location other than those listed on Schedule IV hereto or (iii) change its name, identity or structure to such an extent that any financing statement filed by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Security Agreement would become seriously misleading, unless it shall have given the Administrative Agent at least 30 days prior written notice thereof.

(n)           Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights.

(i)            Each Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will (i) continue to use each material Trademark on each and every material trademark class of goods applicable to its current line as reflected in its current catalogs, brochures and price lists in order to maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain as in the past the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark, (iii) employ such Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration, (iv) not adopt or use any mark which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark unless the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, shall obtain a perfected security interest in such mark pursuant to this Security Agreement, and (v) not (and not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any material Trademark may become invalidated.

(ii)           No Grantor will do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any material Patent may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public.

(iii)          Each Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will, for each work covered by a material Copyright, continue to publish, reproduce, display, adopt and distribute the work with appropriate copyright notice as necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve such Grantor’s material rights under all applicable copyright laws.

(iv)          Each Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders immediately if it knows, or has reason to know, that any material Patent, Trademark or Copyright or any application or registration relating to any thereof may become abandoned, lost or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including, without limitation, the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal or similar office in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, right to use, interest in, or the validity of any material Patent, Trademark or Copyright or its right to register the same or to keep and maintain the same.

(v)           Whenever any Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Patent or

12

Trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, or shall file an application for registration of any Copyright with the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report such filing to the Administrative Agent within seven Business Days after such filing occurs.

(vi)          Each Grantor shall from time to time execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Administrative Agent may request (including, without limitation, one or more Notice of Security Interest in Patents attached hereto as Annex A, one or more Memorandum of Security Agreement - Trademarks attached hereto as Annex B and one or more Memorandum of Security Agreement - Copyrights attached hereto as Annex C, in each case with appropriate completions and schedules) to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties in any Patent, Trademark or Copyright and the goodwill and general intangibles of the Grantors relating thereto or represented thereby, and each Grantor hereby constitutes the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, such power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable until the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated.

(vii)         Each Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps, including, without limitation, in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each registration of the material Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights, including, without limitation, timely filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance fees.

(viii)        In the event that any material Patent, Trademark or Copyright included in the Collateral is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, each Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders after it learns thereof and, at the Grantors’ sole expense, shall, unless the Grantors shall reasonably determine that such Patent, Trademark or Copyright is of negligible economic value to the Grantors, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, or take such other actions as the Grantors shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Patent, Trademark or Copyright.

(ix)           Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License to effect the assignment of all of such Grantor’s rights, title and interest thereunder to the Administrative Agent or its designee.

6.             Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

(a)           Powers.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of each Grantor and in the name of each Grantor or in its own name, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Security Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and

14

instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of each Grantor, without notice to or assent by any Grantor, to do the following:

(i)            in the name of each Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Account, Instrument, General Intangible or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Account, Instrument, General Intangible or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii)           to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, to effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Security Agreement and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(iii)          in the case of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright, to execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright and the goodwill and general intangibles of the Grantors relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iv)          to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 9 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v)           (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (B) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of Grantors’ mail to an address designated by Administrative Agent, to receive and open all mail relating to the collateral and forward all other mail to Grantors; (D) use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment and computer hardware and software relating to Accounts, Inventory, Equipment and any other Collateral and to which Grantors have access; (E)to sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (F) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (G) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against any Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (H) to settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; (I) to assign any Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Trademark

15

pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (J) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and the Grantors’ expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s, Liens thereon for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and to effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the Grantors might do.

Anything in this Section 6(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.

(b)           No Duty on Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ Part.  The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

7.             Performance by Agent of Grantors’ Obligations.  If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation to do so, may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.  The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the then current Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate, shall be payable, jointly and severally, by the Grantors to the Administrative Agent on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured hereby.

8.             Application of Proceeds.  The Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of such cash or Payment Items against the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) all in accordance with Sections 5.6 and 5.7 of the Loan Agreement.

9.             Remedies.  If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Security Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby

16

waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.  The Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived or released.  Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere.  The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders arising out of the exercise by the Administrative Agent hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations pursuant to Section 5.6 of the Loan Agreement, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615 of the UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantors.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any of its rights hereunder.  If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.  Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, may (a) without notice, demand or other process, and without charge, enter any of Grantors’ premises and, without breach of the peace, until the Administrative Agent completes the enforcement of its rights in the Collateral, take possession of such premises or place custodians in exclusive control thereof, remain on such premises and use the same and any of Grantors’ equipment for the purpose of completing any work-in-process, preparing any Collateral for disposition and disposing of or collecting any Collateral, and (b) in the exercise of its rights under this Security Agreement, without payment of compensation of any kind, use any and all trademark, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, licenses, franchises and the like to the extent of each Grantor’s rights therein and each Grantor hereby grants a license for that purpose.

10.           Grant of License to Use Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral.  For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 9 hereof at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable, non-

17

exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any of the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks, now owned or hereafter acquired by any Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored.  The use of such license by the Administrative Agent shall be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent for any purpose appropriate in connection with the exercise of remedies hereunder, only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.  The Administrative Agent agrees to apply the net proceeds received from any license as provided herein.

11.           Limitation on Duties Regarding Presentation of Collateral.  The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.  The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

12.           Powers Coupled with an Interest.  All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

13.           Notices.  All notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Grantor at such Grantor’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof, or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 13.  Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; or (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged.  Any written notice or other communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party.

14.           Authority of Administrative Agent.  Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Security Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Security Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders , be governed by the Loan Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the

18

Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

15.           Severability.  Any provision of this Security Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

16.           Counterparts; Delivery by Telecopier.  This Security Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Security Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile transmission of signature pages hereto), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  A set of the copies of this Security Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Grantors and the Administrative Agent.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of an originally executed counterpart of this Security Agreement.

17.           Paragraph Headings.  The paragraph headings used in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

18.           No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  Neither the Administrative Agent, nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 18 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof.  No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion.  The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

19.           Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns; Governing Law.  None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each Grantor and the Administrative Agent, provided that any provision of this Security Agreement may be waived by the Administrative Agent in a written instrument executed by the Administrative Agent.  This Security Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns.  This Security Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

19

20.           Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)           submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the courts of the United States of America for the District of Massachusetts, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(b)           consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c)           agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to each Grantor at its address set forth in Section 13 hereof or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant hereto;

(d)           agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

(e)           waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

21.           WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

22.           Additional Grantors.  Each Subsidiary of SMI which is required pursuant to Section 10.1.9 of the Loan Agreement to become party to this Security Agreement shall become a Grantor for all purposes of this Security Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of a Supplement in the form of Annex D hereto.
