Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, Agent or otherwise, from time to time in Agent’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the following:

(a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement;

(b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(c) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (b) above;

(d) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

(e) to prepare and file any UCC financing statements against such Grantor as debtor;

(f) to prepare, sign, and file for recordation in any intellectual property registry, appropriate evidence of the lien and security interest granted herein in the Intellectual Property in the name of such Grantor as debtor;

(g) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to perform or comply or cause performance or compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, access to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Permitted Liens) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by Agent to become obligations of such Grantor to Agent, due and payable immediately without demand; and

(h) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Agent’s security interest therein in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

6.2 No Duty on the Part of Agent or Secured Parties. The powers conferred on Agent hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Agent and the Secured Parties

shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment or order.

SECTION 7. REMEDIES.

7.1 Generally.

(a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

(i) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at a place to be designated by Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

(ii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

(iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent Agent deems appropriate;

(iv) obtain the appointment of a receiver, without notice of any kind whatsoever, to take possession of the Collateral and to exercise such rights and powers as the court appointing such receiver shall confer upon such receiver; and

(v) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

(b) Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and Agent, as collateral agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice

to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree, provided this sentence shall not restrict the operation of Section 9-615(f) of the UCC. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, Grantors shall be liable for the deficiency and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to Agent, that Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the rights of Agent hereunder.

(c) Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(d) Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

7.2 Application of Proceeds. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds received by Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by Agent against, the Secured Obligations in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses to Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as Agent and not as a Lender) and all advances made by Agent hereunder for the account of the applicable Grantor, and to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Lender Counterparties; and third, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of such Grantor or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

7.3 Sales on Credit. If Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Agent may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.

7.4 Deposit Accounts.

Agent may apply the balance from any Deposit Account (other than the Senior Secured Notes Deposit Account) or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account (other than the Senior Secured Notes Deposit Account) is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account (other than the Senior Secured Notes Deposit Account) to or for the benefit of Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.4.4 hereof.

7.5 Investment Related Property.

Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Investment Related Property conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Investment Related Property under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Related Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Investment Related Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Related Property, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Stock to be sold hereunder, each partnership and each limited liability company from time to time to furnish to Agent all such information as Agent may request in order to determine the number and nature of interest, shares or other instruments included in the Investment Related Property which may be sold by Agent in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

7.6 Intellectual Property.

(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i) Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, Agent or otherwise, in Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Agent as provided in Section 10 hereof in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section, and, to the extent that Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property as provided in this Section, each Grantor agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement or other violation of any of such Grantor’s rights in the Intellectual Property by others;

(ii) upon written demand from Agent, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to Agent or such Agent’s designee all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and shall execute and deliver to Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement;

(iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that Agent (or any Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, the Intellectual Property;

(iv) within five (5) Business Days after written notice from Agent, each Grantor shall make available to Agent, to the extent within such Grantor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Grantor’s employ on the date of such Event of Default as Agent may reasonably designate, by name, title or job responsibility, to permit such Grantor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold or delivered by such Grantor under or in connection with the Trademarks, Trademark Licenses, such persons to be available to perform their prior functions on Agent’s behalf and to be compensated by Agent at such Grantor’s expense on a per diem, pro rata basis consistent with the salary and benefit structure applicable to each as of the date of such Event of Default; and

(v) (A) Agent shall have the right to notify, or require each Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property, of the existence of the security interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done;

(B) All amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 7.7 hereof; and

(C) Grantor shall adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

(b) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor, Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of Agent and the Secured Parties.

(c) Solely for the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7 and at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent, to the extent it has the right to do so, an irrevocable, nonexclusive

license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor but only exercisable so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to the grant of sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of said Trademarks, to use, operate under, license, or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located.

7.7 Cash Proceeds. In addition to the rights of Agent specified in Section 4.3 and Section 4.4 with respect to payments of Receivables, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other non-cash items (collectively, “Cash Proceeds”) (i) except as specified in clause (ii), shall be applied by such Grantor in a manner not inconsistent with the Credit Agreement, and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for Agent, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Agent, shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 4.4.1(a)(ii), be turned over to Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to Agent, if required). Any Cash Proceeds received by Agent (whether from a Grantor or otherwise) (A) shall be held by Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (B) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by Agent against the Secured Obligations then due and owing in accordance with Section 4.4 and the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 8. COLLATERAL AGENT.

Agent has been appointed to act as Agent hereunder by Lenders pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 9.8 of the Credit Agreement and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof, the other Secured Parties. Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section. Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Grantors. Upon any such notice of resignation, Agent immediately shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon notice to Agent, to appoint a successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Agent under this Agreement shall promptly at the Grantors’ expense (i) transfer to such successor Agent all sums and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Agent under this Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary in connection with the assignment to such successor Agent of the security interests created hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9. CONTINUING NATURE OF SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF LOANS.

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the Full Payment of all Secured Obligations, be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and inure, together with the rights and remedies of Agent hereunder, to the benefit of Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns for the benefit and on behalf of the Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Lenders herein or otherwise. Notwithstanding the Full Payment of all Secured Obligations, Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in any of the Collateral unless, with respect to any loss or damage Agent may incur as a result of the dishonor or return of any payment items applied to the Secured Obligations, Agent shall have received either (i) a written agreement, executed by Grantors and any Person deemed financially responsible by Agent whose loans or other advances to Grantors are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Secured Obligations, indemnifying Agent and Secured Parties from any such loss or damage; or (ii) such monetary reserves and Liens on the Collateral for such period of time as Agent, in its reasonable discretion, may deem necessary to protect Agent from any such loss or damage, provided, that any such reserve shall not exceed the amount of the payment items applied to the Secured Obligations that have not cleared as of such date. Upon Agent’s confirmation of the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, Agent shall, at Grantors’ expense, promptly execute and deliver to Grantors or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, including financing statement amendments to evidence such termination. Upon any disposition of property permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Liens granted herein shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor with no further action on the part of any Person. Agent shall, at Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release.

SECTION 10. STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM.

The powers conferred on Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar property in its own account. Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to, except to the extent such delay or failure arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment or order, demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor under Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.

Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement. No failure or delay on the part of Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the

other Credit Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Agent and Grantors and their respective successors and assigns. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of Agent given in accordance with the Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Grantors and Agent and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Credit Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document and may be delivered by facsimile or e-mail.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the Liens created hereby are subject in all respects to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control to the extent provided in Section 7.10 thereof.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAWS).

SECTION 12. AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT.

(a) This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Security Agreement. All rights, benefits, indebtedness, interests, liabilities and obligations of the parties to the Existing Security Agreement and the agreements, documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection with the Existing Security Agreement, including, without limitation, the Existing Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Existing Security Documents”) are hereby renewed, amended, and restated in their entirety according to the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. This Agreement does not constitute, nor shall it result in, a waiver of, or release, discharge or forgiveness of, any amount payable pursuant to the Existing Security Agreement or any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations of any Grantor thereunder, all of which are renewed and continued and are hereafter payable and to be performed in accordance with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Neither this Agreement nor any of the other Credit Documents extinguishes the indebtedness or liabilities outstanding in connection with the Existing Security Documents, nor do they constitute a novation with respect thereto.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall amend, modify, interrupt, extinguish or nullify any grant of a security interest by any Grantor in the Collateral set forth herein, and all security interests, pledges, assignments and other liens previously granted by Grantors under the Existing Security Documents, including, without limitation, the Existing Credit Agreement, are hereby renewed and continued and shall remain in full force and effect as security for the Secured Obligations, except as otherwise provided by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
