Subject to the provisions of Section 11 hereof, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to take all actions on behalf of the Secured Creditors to enforce the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors provided for in the Collateral Documents or by applicable law with respect to the liens upon and security interests in the Collateral granted to secure the Secured Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Collateral Documents, (i) the Collateral Agent shall act solely at and in accordance with the written direction of the Required Secured Creditors, (ii) the Collateral Agent shall not, without the written consent of the Required Lenders and the Required Holders, release or terminate by affirmative action or consent to any lien upon or security interest in any Collateral granted under any Collateral Documents (except (x) upon dispositions of Collateral by a Loan Party as permitted in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Note Agreements prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and (y) upon disposition of such Collateral after an Event of Default pursuant to direction given under clause (i) hereof), and (iii) the Collateral Agent shall not accept any Secured Obligations in whole or partial consideration for the disposition of any Collateral without the written consent of the Required Lenders and the Required Holders. The Collateral Agent agrees to make such demands and give such notices under the Collateral Documents as may be requested by, and to take such action to enforce the Collateral Documents and to foreclose upon, collect and dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof as may be directed by, the Required Secured Creditors; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that is determined by the Collateral Agent in good faith to be contrary to law or the terms of the Collateral Documents or this Agreement or not subject to a reasonably satisfactory indemnity hereunder. Once a direction to take any action has been given by the Required Secured Creditors to the Collateral Agent, and subject to any other directions which may be given from time to time by the Required Secured Creditors, decisions regarding the manner in which any such action is to be implemented and conducted (with the exception of any decision to settle, compromise or dismiss any legal proceeding, with or without prejudice) shall be made by the Collateral Agent, with the assistance and upon the advice of its counsel. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, any and all decisions to settle, compromise or dismiss any legal proceeding, with or without prejudice, which implements, approves or results in or has the effect of causing any release, change or occurrence, where such release, change or occurrence otherwise would require the approval of all of the Banks and Noteholders or both the Required Lenders and Required Holders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, also shall require the approval of all of the Banks and Noteholders or the Required Lenders and Required Holders, as the case may be.
