In addition, notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, in the event that Rule 3-

10 (“Rule 3-10”) or Rule 3-16 (“Rule 3-16”) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC, would require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would require) the filing with the SEC (or any other Governmental Authority) of separate financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company due to the fact that such Person’s Equity Interests secure the Obligations, then the Equity Interests of such Person (the “Regulation S-X Excluded Collateral”) will automatically be deemed not to be part of the Collateral securing the Obligations, but and only for so long as the Company or such Subsidiary has not satisfied such requirement or is otherwise subject to such requirement. In such event, this Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Secured Party, to the extent necessary to release the Lien on the Regulation S-X Excluded Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent. In the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to permit (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would permit) any Regulation S-X Excluded Collateral to secure the Obligations in excess of the amount then pledged without requiring the filing with the SEC (or any other Governmental Authority) of separate financial statements of such Person (or the Company or the applicable Subsidiary has otherwise satisfied such requirement to file separate financial statements), then the Equity Interests of such Person will automatically be deemed to be a part of the Collateral (but only to the extent that will not result in such Person being subject to any such financial statement requirement which has not otherwise been satisfied). In such event, this Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Secured Party, to the extent necessary to subject such portion of the Regulation S-X Excluded Collateral to a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent.

INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT GOVERNS. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, THE LIENS AND SECURITY INTERESTS GRANTED TO THE COLLATERAL AGENT, FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE SECURED PARTIES, PURSUANT TO THIS COLLATERAL AGREEMENT AND THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY BY THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY COLLATERAL HEREUNDER ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, PRIOR TO THE DISCHARGE OF FIRST-LIEN OBLIGATIONS, UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED HEREIN, THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS AGREEMENT TO DELIVER PLEDGED COLLATERAL AND ANY CERTIFICATES, INSTRUMENTS OR DOCUMENTS IN RELATION THERETO TO THE COLLATERAL AGENT OR ANY OBLIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THE DELIVERY, TRANSFER, CONTROL, NOTATION OR PROVISION OF VOTING RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO ANY COLLATERAL SHALL BE DEEMED SATISFIED BY THE DELIVERY, TRANSFER, CONTROL, NOTATION OR PROVISION IN FAVOR OF THE FIRST LIEN AGENT (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT) AS BAILEE FOR THE COLLATERAL AGENT. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN AND CONTROL.

SECTION 4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Grantor hereby represents and warrants that:

4.2 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Liens permitted to exist on the Collateral by the Indenture, such Grantor owns its Collateral in all material respects free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any

Grantor may, as part of its business, grant licenses to third parties to use Intellectual Property owned or developed by a Grantor. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Note Documents, such licensing activity shall not constitute a “Lien” or a “claim” on such Intellectual Property. Each of the Collateral Agent, each Holder and each other Secured Party understands that any such licenses may be exclusive to the applicable licensees, and such exclusivity provisions may limit the ability of the Collateral Agent to utilize, sell, lease or transfer the related Intellectual Property or otherwise realize value from such Intellectual Property pursuant hereto.

4.3 Perfected Second Priority Liens. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 3 (including obtaining “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) of Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts (other than Permitted Unperfected Accounts), Investment Property and, to the extent requested in writing by the Collateral Agent, Letter-of-Credit Rights (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on said Schedule, unless otherwise noted, have been delivered to the Collateral Agent in completed and, where applicable, duly executed form)) will constitute valid perfected security interests (to the extent perfection of security interests therein may be perfected by filing of UCC-1 financing statements and/or filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and United States Copyright Office, possession by the Collateral Agent of the respective Investment Property or “control” of Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts) in all of the Collateral (excluding Letter-of-Credit Rights where written request has not been made by the Collateral Agent) in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor, other than purchasers in the ordinary course of business, and other than purchasers under transactions permitted under the Indenture, and (b) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral in existence on the date hereof except for (i) Liens granted under the Security Documents, (ii) Liens permitted by the Indenture and (iii) other Liens which have priority over the Liens granted hereunder on the Collateral by operation of law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above or elsewhere in this Agreement, but nonetheless subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, with respect to Letter-of-Credit Rights where the relevant Grantor has been requested by the Collateral Agent to obtain “control” of same, the respective Grantor shall have a reasonable period of time to comply with such request and such “control” shall not be required if the respective Grantor is unable to obtain any required consents for such “control” after using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain same, and unless and until “control” of the respective Letter-of-Credit Rights is obtained in accordance with the above provisions of this Section 4.3 (including this sentence), there shall be no violation of any representation or warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement as a result thereof.

4.4 Jurisdiction of Organization; Chief Executive Office. On the date hereof, such Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization, identification number from the jurisdiction of organization (if any), and the location of such Grantor’s chief executive office or sole place of business or principal residence, as the case may be, are specified on Schedule 4.

4.6 Farm Products. None of the Collateral constitutes, or is the Proceeds of, Farm Products.

4.7 Investment Property.

Each Grantor shall enter into a deposit account control agreement or a securities account control agreement (or amend the existing deposit account control agreement or the securities account control agreement), as applicable, in respect of each Deposit Account and Securities Account (other than Permitted Unperfected Accounts) in substantially similar form as the deposit account control agreement or the securities account control agreement entered into with the First Lien Collateral Agent; provided, that (x) prior to Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such Grantor shall only be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the foregoing obligation in this

Section 5.11 and (y) upon and following Discharge of First Lien Obligations (and to the extent that no deposit account control agreement or securities account control agreement is already in place in respect of the Second Lien Collateral Agent), such Grantor shall promptly (but in any event within 30 days following thereof) enter into a new deposit account control agreement or securities account control agreement in substantially similar form as the existing deposit account control agreement or the securities account control agreement (or amend such existing deposit account control agreement or the securities account control agreement) with such modifications as are reasonably required by the relevant financial institution thereof to ensure that Second Lien Collateral Agent has “control” over such Deposit Account and Securities Account.

Furthermore, at all times prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Collateral Agent is authorized by the parties hereto to effect transfers of Collateral at any time in its possession (and any “control” or similar agreements with respect to Collateral) to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 6 REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

6.1 Certain Matters Relating to Receivables.

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (x) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to make test verifications of the Receivables in any reasonable manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and each Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Collateral Agent may require in connection with such test verifications and (y) upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to furnish to the Collateral Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Receivables.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables and Contracts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto.

6.3 Pledged Stock, Pledged Notes and Investment Property.

(a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Investment Property; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other organizational right exercised or other action taken which would materially impair the Collateral in a manner not expressly permitted by the Indenture, this Agreement or any other Note Document or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Indenture, this Agreement or any other Note Document.

(b) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property and make application thereof to the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 6.5, and (ii) any or all of the Investment Property shall be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, and the Collateral Agent or its nominee may thereafter, during the continuance of such Event of Default, exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Collateral Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may determine), all without liability (except liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment)) except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Collateral Agent.

6.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over to Collateral Agent. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, upon receipt by such Grantor of notice from the Collateral Agent, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other similar near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, be turned over to the Collateral Agent forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent, the Holders and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.5.

6.5 Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (but the Obligations shall not have been accelerated pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Indenture), the Collateral Agent may apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting Collateral, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the Note Guarantee, in payment of the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 6.10 of the Indenture.

6.6 Code and Other Remedies. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this 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 New York UCC or any other applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral 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 waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, have assigned to it, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, license, sublicense, 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 Collateral Agent, or any Secured Party 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. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and upon written demand from the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Collateral Agent an absolute assignment of all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party 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 and released to the extent permitted by Law. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith 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 Collateral Agent, the Holders and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in the order set forth in Section 6.5 hereof, and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of Law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent, any Holder or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder, except for gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any such Person. 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 20 days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Private Sales.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities Laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a

commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities Laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent, the Holders and each of the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent, the Holders and each of the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Indenture.

6.8 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

6.9 Intellectual Property License. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Grantors hereby grant the Collateral Agent a non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide license and right, effective solely during an Event of Default, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law and to the extent of the Grantors’ interest therein, exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation, under and to any and all of the Intellectual Property now or hereafter owned by, licensed to, or otherwise used by the Grantors to purchase, use, market, repossess, possess, store, assemble, manufacture, process, sell, transfer, distribute, lease, license and otherwise exploit and dispose of any asset included in the Collateral to the extent the Collateral Agent takes possession of such in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that any such Event of Default is cured in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Indenture, the foregoing license shall automatically be suspended.

SECTION 7 THE COLLATERAL AGENT

7.1 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral 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 such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

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

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

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

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v) (1) 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 Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and 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; (3) 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; (4) 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 portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; and (7) generally, 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 Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1 unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The reasonable and out-of-pocket expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with interest payable on past due Notes under the Indenture, from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral 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 New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. None of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee, any Holder, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any 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 Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the other Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s, the Holders’ and each other Secured Party’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon any of such Persons to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent, the Holders and the other Secured Parties 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. The Grantors and each Secured Party, by acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that references to the Trustee in Article VII of the Indenture shall be understood to include the Collateral Agent when acting under this Agreement and the other Security Documents, and that said Article is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety mutatis mutandis.

7.3 Filing of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable Law, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent (or its designees) to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Collateral Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” or such similar language in any such financing statements. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Collateral Agent (or its designees) of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof.

7.4 Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Indenture and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties 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.

7.5 Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following provisions shall govern the Collateral Agent’s rights, powers, obligations and duties under this Agreement:

(a) Each of the Holders and the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.03 of the Indenture has designated and appointed U.S. Bank National Association to act as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Note Documents to which it is a party, and has authorized the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and such other Note Documents

and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and such other Note Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Note Documents the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or such other Note Documents or any fiduciary relationship with any parties to the First-Lien Documents or Note Documents, and no implied covenants, functions or responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against Collateral Agent.

(b) In no event shall the Collateral Agent have any obligation to inquire or investigate as to the correctness, veracity, or content of any instruction received from any other Note Documents. In no event shall the Collateral Agent have any liability in respect of any such instruction received by it and relied on with respect to any action or omission taken pursuant thereto.

(c) With respect to the Collateral Agent’s duties under this Agreement or any of the Note Documents, the Collateral Agent may act through its attorneys, accountants, experts and such other professionals as the Collateral Agent deems necessary, advisable or appropriate and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any attorney, accountant, expert or other such professional appointed with due care.

(d) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its experts, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the Note Documents (except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties (other than its own recitals, statements, representations or warranties) made in this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the Note Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Note Documents or for any failure of the Grantors or any other Person to perform their obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(e) The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to (i) account to any Person for any sum or the profit element of any sum received for its own account; (ii) disclose to any other Person any information relating to the Person if such disclosure would, or might, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any Person; (iii) be under any fiduciary duties or obligations other than those for which express provision is made in this Agreement or in any of the other Note Documents to which it is a party; or (iv) be required to take any action that it reasonably believes, based on advice of counsel, is in conflict with any applicable law, this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, or any order of any court or administrative agency;

(f) The Collateral Agent shall be authorized to but shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or monitoring or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. It is expressly agreed, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, that the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for (i) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights

against any Person with respect to any Collateral or (ii) taking any action to protect against any diminution in value of the Collateral, but, in each case (A) subject to the requirement that the Collateral Agent may not act or omit to take any action if such act or omission would constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct and (B) the Collateral Agent may do so and all expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith shall be part of the Obligations.

(g) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith, except to the extent of the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(h) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for, nor incur any liability with respect to, (i) the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the security interest in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent (as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), (ii) the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, (iii) the validity of the title of the Grantors to the Collateral, (iv) insuring the Collateral or (v) the payment of taxes, charges or assessments upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any of the Note Documents to the contrary, (i) in no event shall the Collateral Agent or any officer, director, employee, representative or agent of the Collateral Agent be liable under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the Note Documents for indirect, special, incidental, punitive or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever, including but not limited to lost profits or loss of opportunity, whether or not foreseeable, even if the Collateral Agent has been advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought; and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall be afforded all of the rights, powers, immunities and indemnities set forth in this Agreement in all of the other Note Documents to which it is a signatory as if such rights, powers, immunities and indemnities were specifically set out in each such Note Documents. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to invest any amounts received by it hereunder.

(j) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled conclusively to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, request, direction, certificate, notice, consent, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, email, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and/or upon advice and/or statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent and need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such document. Any such statement of legal counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in accordance therewith. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents (i) if such action would, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent (which may be based on the opinion of legal counsel), be contrary to applicable law or any of the Note Documents, (ii) if such action is not provided for in this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, (iii) if, in connection with the taking of any such action hereunder or under any of the Note Documents that would constitute an exercise of remedies hereunder or under any of the Note Documents it shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all risk of nonpayment, liability and expense that may be incurred by it, its agents or its counsel by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, or (iv) if notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

in this Agreement, in connection with the taking of any such action that would constitute a payment due under any agreement or document, it shall not first have received from the Holders or the Grantors funds equal to the amount payable. The Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents in accordance with a request of the requisite percentage of Holders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the other Holders and the Trustee.

(k) The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have actual, constructive, direct or indirect knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default unless and until the Collateral Agent has received a written notice or a certificate from the Grantors stating that a Default has occurred. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever either prior to or after receiving such notice or certificate to inquire whether a Default has in fact occurred and shall be entitled to rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any notice or certificate so furnished to it. No provision of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any of the Note Documents shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, any of the other Note Documents or the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability including an advance of moneys necessary to perform work or to take the action requested is not reasonably assured to it, the Collateral Agent may decline to act unless it receives indemnity satisfactory; to it in its sole discretion, including an advance of moneys necessary to take the action requested. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation or duty to take any action under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents or otherwise if taking such action (i) would subject the Collateral Agent to a tax in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to a tax or (ii) would require the Collateral Agent to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified.

(l) Any corporation into which the Collateral Agent may be merged, or with which it may he consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, shall become a Collateral Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto except for written notice to the other parties hereto.

(m) The Collateral Agent may resign as Collateral Agent at any time upon written notice to the Holders, Trustee and the Grantors and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Holders constituting at least the majority of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding (the “Requisite Holders”), with any such resignation or removal to become effective only upon the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent under this Section. If the Collateral Agent shall provide notice of its resignation or be removed as Collateral Agent, then the Requisite Holders shall (and if no such successor shall have been appointed within 45 days of the Second Priority Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal, the Collateral Agent may) appoint a successor Collateral Agent which successor agent shall, in the case of any appointment by the Collateral Agent, be reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Holders, and the former Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Collateral Agent (except that the resigning Collateral Agent shall deliver all Collateral then in its possession to the successor Collateral Agent and shall execute and deliver to the successor Collateral Agent such instruments of assignment and transfer and other similar documents as such successor Collateral Agent shall deem necessary or advisable (at the joint and several expense of the Grantors)). After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent. In the event that a successor Collateral Agent is not appointed within the time period specified in this Section following the provision of a notice of resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent (at the joint and several expense of the Grantors).
