CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF LOANS This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable and (y) contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made), and the cancellation or termination of the Commitments, be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns.
