The Collateral Agent’s Duty of Care Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Pledged Collateral while being held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Pledgors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Pledged Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Pledgors. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral.
Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security On a continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) promptly following its becoming aware thereof, notify the Collateral Agent of any adverse determination in any proceeding or the institution of any proceeding in any federal, state or local court or administrative body or in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office regarding any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, such Pledgor’s right to register such Material Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect, (ii) maintain all Material Intellectual Property Collateral as presently used and operated, (iii) not permit to lapse or become abandoned any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, and not settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to any such Material Intellectual Property Collateral, in either case except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (iv) upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility of any Material Intellectual Property Collateral or the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent in relation thereto including a levy or threat of levy or any legal process against any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, (v) not license any Intellectual Property Collateral other than licenses entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of business, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to receive payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of any Intellectual Property Collateral or the Lien on and security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral created therein hereby, without the consent of the Collateral Agent, (vi) diligently keep adequate records respecting all Intellectual Property Collateral and (vii) furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property Collateral and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property Collateral as the Collateral Agent may from time to time request.
Perfection and Protection of Security Interests and Liens Borrower will from time to time deliver, and will cause each other Restricted Person from time to time to deliver, to Agent any financing statements, continuation statements, extension agreements and other documents, properly completed and executed (and acknowledged when required) by Restricted Persons in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, which Agent requests for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, or protecting any Liens or other rights in Collateral securing any Obligations.
Duties of Collateral Agent Subject to the Collateral Agent having been directed to take such action in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, each Secured Bank Creditor hereby and each Noteholder irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Collateral Documents and any other instruments, documents and agreements referred to therein and to exercise such powers thereunder as are specifically delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 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.
Perfection of Security Interests (a) Each Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Agent (or its agent) to file at any time and from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, as Agent may require, and including any other information with respect to such Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of such jurisdiction as Agent may determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on, prior to or after the date hereof. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby ratifies and approves all financing statements naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, as debtor with respect to the Collateral (and any amendments with respect to such financing statements) filed by or on behalf of Agent prior to the date hereof and ratifies and confirms the authorization of Agent to file such financing statements (and amendments, if any). Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby authorizes Agent to adopt on behalf of such Borrower and Guarantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and any Borrower or Guarantor as debtor includes assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral, whether hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements or otherwise, the filing of such financing statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the Collateral included in such description and it shall not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral or otherwise affect the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral. In no event shall any Borrower or Guarantor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor.
Perfection and Priority The security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement constitutes a valid and continuing perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in all Collateral subject, for the following Collateral, to the occurrence of the following: (i) in the case of all Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing a financing statement under the UCC, the completion of the filings specified on Schedule 2 (which, in the case of all filings referred to on such schedule, have been duly authorized by each Grantor and delivered to the Collateral Agent in completed form), (ii) with respect to any deposit account, the execution of a Control Agreement, (iii) in the case of all Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents for which UCC filings are insufficient, all appropriate filings having been made with the Applicable IP Office, (iv) in the case of letter-of-credit rights that are not supporting obligations of Collateral, the execution of a Contractual Obligation granting control to the Collateral Agent over such letter-of-credit rights, and (v) in the case of electronic chattel paper, the completion of all steps necessary to grant control to the Collateral Agent over such electronic chattel paper. Such security interest shall be prior to all other Liens on the Collateral except for Customary Permitted Liens having priority over the Collateral Agent’s Lien by operation of law or permitted pursuant to clause (c), (e) or (j) of the definition of “Customary Permitted Liens” in the Credit Agreement or subsection 8.2(c), 8.2(d), 8.2(e), 8.2(f) or 8.2(h) of the Credit Agreement upon (i) in the case of all Pledged Certificated Stock, Pledged Debt Instruments and Pledged Investment Property, the delivery thereof to the Collateral Agent of such Pledged Certificated Stock, Pledged Debt Instruments and Pledged Investment Property consisting of instruments and certificates, in each case properly endorsed for transfer to the Collateral Agent or in blank, (ii) in the case of all Pledged Investment Property not in certificated form, the execution of a Control Agreement with respect to such investment property, and (iii) in the case of all other instruments and tangible chattel paper that are not Pledged Certificated Stock, Pledged Debt Instruments or Pledged Investment Property, the delivery to the Collateral Agent of such instruments and tangible chattel paper. Except as set forth in this Section 4.2, all actions by each Grantor necessary to perfect the Lien granted hereunder on the Collateral have been duly taken.
Creation, Perfection and Priority of Security Interests The representations and warranties regarding creation, perfection and priority of security interests in the Purchased Property, which are attached to this Agreement as Appendix B, are true and correct to the extent that they are applicable.
Perfection and Protection of Security Interest Borrower shall, at its expense, take all actions requested by FINOVA at any time to perfect, maintain, protect and enforce FINOVA's first priority security interest and other rights in the Collateral and the priority thereof from time to time, including, without limitation, (i) executing and filing financing or continuation statements and amendments thereof and executing and delivering such documents and titles in connection with motor vehicles as FINOVA shall require, all in form and substance satisfactory to FINOVA, (ii) maintaining a perpetual inventory and complete and accurate stock records, (iii) delivering to FINOVA warehouse receipts covering any portion of the Collateral located in warehouses and for which warehouse receipts are issued, and transferring Inventory to warehouses designated by FINOVA, (iv) placing notations on Borrower's books of account to disclose FINOVA's security interest therein and (v) delivering to FINOVA all letters of credit on which Borrower is named beneficiary. FINOVA may file, without Borrower's signature, one or more financing statements disclosing FINOVA's security interest under this Agreement. Borrower agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement. If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee or any of Borrower's agents or processors, Borrower shall notify such Person of FINOVA's security interest in such Collateral and, upon FINOVA's request, instruct them to hold all such Collateral for FINOVA's account subject to FINOVA's instructions. From time to time, Borrower shall, upon FINOVA's request, execute and deliver confirmatory written instruments pledging the Collateral to FINOVA, but Borrower's failure to do so shall not affect or limit FINOVA's security interest or other rights in and to the Collateral. Until the Obligations have been fully satisfied and FINOVA's obligation to make further advances hereunder has terminated, FINOVA's security interest in the Collateral shall continue in full force and effect.
Perfection of Security Interest Each Borrower shall take all action that may be necessary or desirable, or that Agent may request, so as at all times to maintain the validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of Agent’s security interest in and Lien on the Collateral or to enable Agent to protect, exercise or enforce its rights hereunder and in the Collateral, including, but not limited to, (i) immediately discharging all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances, (ii) obtaining Lien Waiver Agreements, (iii) delivering to Agent, endorsed or accompanied by such instruments of assignment as Agent may specify, and stamping or marking, in such manner as Agent may specify, any and all chattel paper, instruments, letters of credits and advices thereof and documents evidencing or forming a part of the Collateral, (iv) entering into warehousing, lockbox and other custodial arrangements satisfactory to Agent, and (v) executing and delivering financing statements, control agreements, instruments of pledge, mortgages, notices and assignments, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, relating to the creation, validity, perfection, maintenance or continuation of Agent’s security interest and Lien under the Uniform Commercial Code or other Applicable Law. By its signature hereto, each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to file against such Borrower, one or more financing, continuation or amendment statements pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in form and substance satisfactory to Agent (which statements may have a description of collateral which is broader than that set forth herein). All charges, expenses and fees Agent may incur in doing any of the foregoing, and any local taxes relating thereto, shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a Revolving Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and added to the Obligations, or, at Agent’s option, shall be paid to Agent for its benefit and for the ratable benefit of Lenders immediately upon demand.
Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Servicer is hereby authorized to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason.
