TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS Borrower is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items of Equipment which are leased by Borrower. The Collateral now is and will remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims, except for Permitted Liens. Silicon now has, and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the Collateral against all claims of others. None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture. Borrower is not and will not become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the lessor may obtain any rights in any of the Collateral and no such lease now prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's right to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Whenever any Collateral is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest (whether as owner, mortgagee, beneficiary under a deed of trust, lien or otherwise), Borrower shall, whenever requested by Silicon, use its best efforts to cause such third party to execute and deliver to Silicon, in form acceptable to Silicon, such waivers and subordinations as Silicon shall specify, so as to ensure that Silicon's rights in the Collateral are, and will continue to be, superior to the rights of any such third party. Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply with all the terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Collateral now or in the future may be located.
Rights in Collateral; Priority of Liens Borrower and each other Loan Party own the property granted by it as Collateral under the Collateral Documents, free and clear of any and all Liens in favor of third parties. Upon the proper filing of UCC financing statements, and the taking of the other actions required by Lender, the Liens granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents will constitute valid and enforceable first, prior and perfected (to the extent that Liens on the Collateral can be perfected by the filing of UCC financing statements) Liens on the Collateral in favor of Lender.
Creation, Perfection and Priority of Liens The execution and delivery of the Collateral Documents by Loan Parties and Sponsors, together with (i) the actions taken on or prior to the date hereof pursuant to subsections 4.1, 4.2, 6.8 and 6.9 and (ii) the delivery to Administrative Agent of any Pledged Collateral not delivered to Administrative Agent at the time of execution and delivery of the applicable Collateral Document (all of which Pledged Collateral has been so delivered) are effective to create in favor of Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders, as security for the respective Secured Obligations (as defined in the applicable Collateral Document in respect of any Collateral), a valid and perfected First Priority Lien on all of the Collateral, and all filings and other actions necessary or desirable to perfect and maintain the perfection and First Priority status of such Liens have been duly made or taken and remain in full force and effect, other than the filing of any UCC financing statements or Mortgages delivered to Administrative Agent for filing or recording, as applicable (but not yet filed or recorded) and the periodic filing of UCC continuation statements in respect of UCC financing statements filed by or on behalf of Administrative Agent.
Limitation on Liens on Collateral Such Grantor shall not create, incur or permit to exist, will defend the Collateral against, and will take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien or claim on or to the Collateral, other than Liens permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and will defend the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and the other holders of the Secured Obligations in and to any of the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.
