Lien Releases; Care of Collateral Lenders authorize Agent to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (b) that is the subject of an Asset Disposition which Borrowers certify in writing to Agent is a Permitted Asset Disposition or a Lien which Borrowers certify is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over Agent’s Liens (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); (c) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; or (d) with the written consent of all Lenders. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lenders to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by a Borrower, or is cared for, protected, insured or encumbered, nor to assure that Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.
Care of Collateral Company shall have all risk of loss of the Collateral. Secured Party shall have no liability or duty, either before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, on account of loss of or damage to, to collect or enforce any of its rights against, the Collateral, to collect any income accruing on the Collateral, or to preserve rights against Persons with prior interests in the Collateral. If Secured Party actually receives any notices requiring action with respect to Collateral in Secured Party’s possession, Secured Party shall take reasonable steps to forward such notices to the Company. The Company is responsible for responding to notices concerning the Collateral, voting the Collateral, and exercising rights and options, calls and conversions of the Collateral. Secured Party’s sole responsibility is to take such action as is reasonably requested by Company in writing, however, Secured Party is not responsible to take any action that, in Secured Party’s sole judgment, would affect the value of the Collateral as security for the Obligations adversely. While Secured Party is not required to take certain actions, if action is needed, in Secured Party’s sole discretion, to preserve and maintain the Collateral, Company authorizes Secured Party to take such actions, but Secured Party is not obligated to do so.
Releases of Collateral (i) If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Obligor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Obligor, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Obligor all releases and other documents, and take such other action, reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby or by any other Collateral Document on such Collateral.
(ii) The Administrative Agent may release any of the Pledged Equity from this Agreement or may substitute any of the Pledged Equity for other Pledged Equity without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Agreement as to any Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted, and this Agreement shall continue as a first priority lien on all Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted.
Release of Collateral Subject to Section 11.01 and the terms of the Basic Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt by it of an Issuer Request accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates.
Pledge of Collateral Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all the Shares, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations. On the Effective Date, or, to the extent not certificated as of the Effective Date, within ten (10) days of the certification of any Shares, the certificate or certificates for the Shares will be delivered to Collateral Agent, accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly executed in blank by Borrower. To the extent required by the terms and conditions governing the Shares, Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Collateral Agent may effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral (including but not limited to the Shares) into the name of Collateral Agent and cause new (as applicable) certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Collateral Agent or its transferee. Borrower will execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as Collateral Agent may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection of Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Shares. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms. All such rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
Assignment of Collateral There is no material collateral securing any Mortgage Loan that has not been assigned to the Purchaser.

Transfer of Collateral 3.1 On or prior to the receipt of the Loaned Securities, Borrower shall transfer to Lender Collateral in an amount (the “Required Value”) equal to the percentage (the “Margin Percentage”) of the market value of the Loaned Securities as agreed to by the parties (which shall not be less than 100% of the market value of the Loaned Securities) and shall be equal to the percentage specified in Annex I hereto for particular types of loans.
3.2 All transfers of Collateral consisting of securities (including those made pursuant to Section 8) shall be effected in the same manner as that provided in Section 2 for Loaned Securities. All transfers of Collateral consisting of cash (including those made pursuant to Section 8) shall be made by (a) wire transfer in immediately available, freely transferable funds or (b) such other means as the parties hereto may agree. All transfers of Collateral consisting of a letter of credit from Borrower to Lender shall be made by delivery to Lender of an irrevocable performance letter of credit issued by a bank (not affiliated with Borrower) which is acceptable to Lender and is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or is a foreign bank that has filed an agreement with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on Form FR T-2 (or any successor). Transfer of a letter of credit from Lender to Borrower shall be made by causing such letter of credit to be returned or, through the written consent of Lender, causing the amount of such letter of credit to be reduced to the amount required after such transfer.
3.3 The Collateral transferred by Borrower to Lender, as adjusted pursuant to Section 8, shall be security for Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loan and for any other obligations of Borrower to Lender, and Borrower hereby pledges with, assigns to, and grants Lender a continuing security interest in, and a lien upon, the Collateral (other than letters of credit), which shall attach upon the delivery of the Collateral to Lender and which shall cease upon the redelivery of the Collateral to Borrower.
3.4 Lender may use or invest the Collateral, if such consists of cash, at its own risk and for its own benefit and shall be entitled to retain all income and profits therefrom and shall bear all losses with respect thereto. If the Collateral consists of securities, Lender may pledge, repledge, hypothecate, rehypothecate, lend, relend, sell or otherwise transfer the Collateral and commingle, with other collateral or with its own assets, the Collateral. Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender to be the attorney-in-fact of Borrower for the purpose of doing or performing any act or thing (including, without limitation, executing any document) and to take all other steps as may be required to enable Lender to effect transfer thereof to a third party or to otherwise realize upon any Collateral which has been transferred to it pursuant to any Loan.
3.5 Except as provided in Section 12, Lender shall be obligated to return the Collateral to Borrower upon tender to Lender of the Loaned Securities on termination of the Loan.
3.6 If, on any Business Day corresponding to the commencement date for a Loan, Borrower transfers the Collateral and Lender does not transfer the Loaned Securities, Borrower shall have the absolute right to the immediate return of the Collateral; and if, on any such Business Day, Lender transfers Loaned Securities and Borrower does not transfer Collateral hereunder, Lender shall have the absolute right to the immediate return of the Loaned Securities.
3.7 Borrower may, upon reasonable notice to Lender and with Lender’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), substitute Collateral for Collateral securing any Loan; provided, however, that such substituted Collateral shall (a) consist only of cash, securities or other property that the parties agreed would be acceptable Collateral prior to the commencement of the Loan or Loans and (b) have a market value such that the aggregate market value of such substituted Collateral shall equal or exceed the agreed upon Margin Percentage of the market value of the Loaned Securities. Substituted Collateral shall constitute Collateral hereunder for all purposes.
3.8 A transfer of Loaned Securities or Collateral may be effected on any day except (i) a day on which the intended transferee is closed for business (which transferee may be a designee or agent) or (ii) a day on which a Clearing Organization or wire transfer system is closed, if the facilities of such Clearing Organization or wire transfer system are required to effect such transfer.
(a) Except as provided in the following sentence, upon receipt of Collateral for a Loan, such Collateral shall be allocated to such Loan; provided that if Collateral is received on the same day for more than one Loan, the Lender shall allocate such Collateral to each Loan then being made so that each such Loan is secured by not less than the Required Value of Collateral. Any Collateral received by Lender with respect to a Loan in excess of the Required Value for such Loan may be held by Lender as collateral security for all Loans made to Borrower at any time without being allocated to any one Loan or, in the sole discretion of Lender, may be allocated at any time to any Loan or Loans then outstanding hereunder. All allocations of Collateral shall be marked in Lender’s books, which shall be conclusive evidence of such allocations.
(b) Lender shall have the right, at its sole election, at any time and from time to time, to allocate and/or reallocate any Collateral held by it hereunder to or among any outstanding Loan or Loans.
(c) It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that any allocation of Collateral to any Loan or liabilities due to any Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall in no way affect the ability of Lender to apply such Collateral to the satisfaction of any obligation of Borrower hereunder upon any default hereunder, regardless of the Loan or Account to which such obligation relates, and that all Collateral at any time given hereunder shall constitute collateral security for all the Borrower’s obligations to Lender hereunder without distinction of any kind and upon any default hereunder may be applied to any such obligation or obligations as Lender in its sole discretion may elect.
