Narrative:

Weather was clear and conditions were dry. After touchdown I retracted flaps and applied medium pressure to the brakes to slow for the high speed exit. After exiting the runway on the high speed (about a 45 degree angle off the runway) I rolled out approximately 500 ft where the exit ramp then takes another approx 45 degree turn to the right onto the ramp. When I attempted to make the second 45 degree turn the aircraft did not fully respond to the right pedal pressure nor the brake and continued straight ahead; exiting the taxiway onto the grass and colliding with the runway/taxiway identifier sign marquis. The impact collapsed the nose gear and the port side main landing gear. The aircraft fell on left wing and spun 180 degrees counterclockwise causing both left and right props to strike the ground. The aircraft came to rest approximately 25 yards past the sign.

Title: While exiting the landing runway via a high speed exit; the pilot of a CE-414 was unable to maintain directional control; exited the taxiway and struck an airport sign collapsing the nose and left main landing gears; thus inducing prop strikes with both engines.
