Equity Pledge 2.1. As collateral security for the timely and complete payment and performance of all Contract Obligations, the Pledgor hereby pledges to the Pledgee a first security interest in all of the Pledgor’s rights, title and interests, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired by the Pledgor, in the Pledged Equity (the “Equity Pledge”). 2.2. The Pledgor shall have been or will be registered at the local branch of State Administration for Industry and Commerce (“SAIC”) as one of the shareholders of the Domestic Company holding his proportion of the equity interests in the Domestic Company as set forth in Recital (A) above and hold such equity interests free and clear of encumbrances except for the Equity Pledge as provided in this Agreement and/or as otherwise agreed by the Parties. 2.3. The Pledgor hereby undertakes that he will be responsible for recording the Equity Pledge on the register of equityholders (if any) of the Domestic Company on the date hereof or as soon as practicable from the date hereof, and will use his best endeavors to register the Equity Pledge with SAIC (the “Registration of Equity Pledge”). In the event the SAIC requires that the Registration of Equity Pledge be completed by using an equity pledge agreement between the Parties substantially in form stipulated by the SAIC, subject to Section 13.5, the Parties shall enter into an equity pledge agreement in such stipulated form (the “Registration Version”) and the Pledgor shall and hereby undertakes that he will use his best endeavors to register the Equity Pledge with SAIC by using the Registration Version. 2.4. During the term of this Agreement, the Pledgee shall not be liable in any way for impairment in value of the Pledged Equity, nor shall the Pledgor have any right to make any claims against the Pledgee for such impairment in value. 2.5. Upon the occurrence of any Breaching Event, the Pledgee shall have the right to dispose of the Pledged Equity in the manner set forth in Article 4 hereof. 2.6. Without the prior written consent of the Pledgee, the Pledgor shall not increase the registered capital of the Domestic Company by contributing additional capital, or allowing any third party to contribute additional capital to the Domestic Company. 2.7. Without the prior written consent of the Pledgee, the Pledgor shall not consent to the adoption of any shareholders’ resolution or by any other means permit the Domestic Company to declare or distribute any dividends or profits. 2.8. Without the prior written consent of the Pledgee, the Pledgor shall not enter into any transactions with the Domestic Company. 2.9. During the term of the Equity Pledge, the Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee’s custody the original capital contribution certificate for the Pledged Equity and the original equityholders’ register (if any) containing the Equity Pledge within five business days from the execution of this Agreement or from the completion of any re-registration of shareholding if the percentage of equity interests changes (in such case, the Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee’s custody the updated original capital contribution certificates for the Pledged Equity and the updated original equityholders’ register (if any) containing the Equity Pledge). The Pledgee shall take custody of such original documents during the entire term of this Agreement. 2.10. The Pledgee shall have the right to collect dividends or any other distribution paid with respect to the Pledged Equity during the term of this Agreement.

Continuing Security Interest; Transfer of Notes This Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until payment in full in cash of all Secured Obligations, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the termination of all Commitments, (b) be binding upon the Grantor, its successors, transferees and assigns, and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer (in whole or in part) any Note or Credit Extension held by it to any other Person or entity, and such other Person or entity shall thereupon become vested with all the rights and benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender under any Loan Document (including this Security Agreement) or otherwise, subject, however, to any contrary provisions in such assignment or transfer, and to the provisions of Article XIII of the Credit Agreement. Upon the payment in full in cash of all Secured Obligations, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the termination of all Commitments, the security interest granted herein shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantor. Upon any such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the Grantor's sole expense, execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Upon any sale or other transfer of Collateral permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement, the security interest created hereunder in such Collateral (but not in the proceeds thereof) shall be deemed to be automatically released and the Collateral Agent will, at the Grantor's sole expense, execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release.
Negative Pledge Clauses The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into or suffer to exist or become effective any agreement that prohibits or limits the ability of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of its property or revenues, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, other than (a) restrictions and conditions in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.18(i) or (iv), any documentation governing the Senior Notes, any credit agreements, indentures or similar agreements governing Indebtedness permitted to be incurred or outstanding pursuant to Section 6.18 to the extent such agreements contain applicable Lien restrictions, in the good faith determination of the Company, not materially less favorable to the Lenders than those contained in customary documentation governing similar Indebtedness in the market at the time of such incurrence, and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof, (b) customary restrictions and conditions contained in agreements relating to Dispositions permitted by Section 6.14 pending the consummation of such Dispositions, (c) restrictions or conditions imposed by any agreement relating to secured Indebtedness permitted by this Agreement if such restrictions or conditions apply only to the property or assets securing such Indebtedness or the Persons obligated thereon, (d) customary provisions in leases and other contracts restricting the assignment, subletting or other transfer thereof (including the granting of any Lien), (e) restrictions or conditions imposed by restrictions on cash and other deposits or net worth provisions in leases and other agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, (f) restrictions and conditions binding on a Restricted Subsidiary or its assets at the time such Restricted Subsidiary first becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or such assets were first acquired by such Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Restricted Subsidiary that was a Restricted Subsidiary on the Execution Date or assets owned by any Restricted Subsidiary on the Execution Date), so long as such contractual obligations were not entered into solely in contemplation of such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary or assets being acquired, (g) customary provisions in partnership agreements, limited liability company governance documents, joint venture agreements and other similar agreements that restrict the transfer of assets of, or ownership interests in, the relevant partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or similar Person, (h) any instrument governing Indebtedness assumed in connection with the Acquisition (to the extent permitted to survive the Acquisition pursuant to the Acquisition Documentation), (i) with respect to bank deposit accounts, cash sweep arrangements, cash management services or cash pooling arrangements, conditions that require consent of the bank before any lien or pledge arrangement securing obligations and liabilities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary are enacted (with each of the foregoing being within the general parameters customary in the banking industry or arising pursuant to the applicable banking institution’s general terms and conditions) or (j) restrictions in respect of assets that, taken as a whole, are immaterial, provided that in good faith judgment of the Company, such conditions would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of any Borrower to satisfy its Obligations hereunder.
Pledge and Security Agreement The security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement is granted in conjunction with the security interest granted to the Security Agent for the Secured Parties pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement, and the Grantors hereby acknowledge and affirm that the rights and remedies of the Security Agent with respect to the security interest in the Copyright Collateral made and granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Pledge and Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to conflict with the Pledge and Security Agreement, the provisions of the Pledge and Security Agreement shall control.
No Pledge This Agreement shall not be deemed to represent a pledge of any interest in the Mortgage Loan by the Noteholders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, no Non-Lead Noteholder shall have any interest in any property taken as security for the Mortgage Loan, provided, however, that if any such property or the proceeds of any sale, lease or other disposition thereof shall be received, then each Non-Lead Noteholder shall be entitled to receive its share of such application in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the Servicing Agreement.
Pledge and Security Interest CUC hereby pledges and lawfully grants to Telesource a security interest in and to the Escrow Account and all funds and assets at any time contained therein, whether in the form of cash, bonds, bills, notes, securities, other instruments, or other obligations, regardless of where or by which person or entity the Escrow Account or such funds or assets shall be held. For purposes of this Agreement and Telesource's continuing security interest in the Escrow Account, the Agent shall maintain at its principal office at the address stated above in ________________, ________________, the funds and other assets comprising the Escrow Account or evidence of record and/or beneficial ownership thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement and the Escrow Account shall secure, for the benefit of Telesource and its successors and assign, all current and future obligations of CUC to Telesource pursuant to the Contract and the Notes and any successor instrument thereto. Each party hereto agrees and covenants to take all such action as may be reasonably requested of it to perfect Telesource's first priority security interest in the Escrow Account; provided however, that such security interest shall not be superior to the Agent's rights to be compensated or indemnified in accordance with the terms hereof. Without the prior written consent of Telesource, CUC will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber to any person other than Telesource all or part of the Escrow Account or any interest therein. If there occurs any change in the law, rules or regulation or any judicial decision or any other event or circumstance pertaining to or affecting rights of creditors in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings the result of which would be to increase the likelihood in Telesource's view that the Escrow Account would not or may not be available to Telesource for the purposes described herein and in the Contract, CUC agrees, upon Telesource's request, (i) to negotiate in good faith with Telesource changes in this Agreement and/or the entire mechanism by which CUC's obligations under the Contract and the Notes are secured and (ii) to permit Telesource to hold the balance of the Escrow Account in an account in Telesource's name in an institution selected by Telesource, which institution shall have a combined capital and surplus of not less than $100 million. Telesource shall bear its own costs of such negotiations and associated document preparation. CUC shall not be obligated to accept any new arrangement which increases the amount of collateral that it must provide to secure its repayment and payment obligations under this Agreement. In the event that there is any change in the location of all or part of the Escrow Account, CUC agrees to take all action requested by Telesource to amend, modify or replace Telesource's filings perfecting its security interest in the Escrow Account, or to enable Telesource to effect any required new or additional filing to perfect its said security interest.
