Section 16. All rights of the Secured Parties and the security interests granted to the
Third Priority Collateral Agent (for its benefit and the benefit of each other Secured Party)
hereunder, and all obligations of the Grantors hereunder, shall, in each case, be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of (i) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability
of any Notes Document or Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, (ii) the failure of any
Secured Party (A) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any
Grantor or any other Person under the provisions of any Notes Document, Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agreement or otherwise, or (B) to exercise any right or remedy against any other

place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Obligations, or any other

termination of any Obligations (except until all Obligations have been paid in full in cash) for
any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall
not be subject to (and each Grantor hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality,
nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence
affecting, any Obligations or otherwise, (v) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other
modification of, or any consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Notes Document or
Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, (vi) any addition, exchange or release of any
Collateral of the Obligations, or any surrender or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any
amendment to or waiver or release or addition to, or consent to or departure from, any other
guaranty held by any Secured Party securing any of the Obligations, or (vii) any other circumstance
which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any
Grantor, any surety or any guarantor.
(c) Until one year and one day after all Obligations have been paid in full in cash, each
Grantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire
against the Company or any other Grantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or
enforcement of such Grantor’s obligations under this Agreement, any other Notes Document or Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured
Party against the Company or any other Grantor or any Collateral which any Secured Party now has or
hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract,
statute or common law, including the right
-17-
to take or receive from the Company or any Grantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other
property or by set-off or in any manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other
rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Grantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the
Obligations shall not have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, then such amount shall be deemed
to have been paid to such Grantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Third Priority
Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), and shall forthwith be paid to the Third
Priority Collateral Agent to be credited and applied upon the Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured. Each Grantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the
financing arrangements contemplated by the Indenture and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement and that the waiver set forth in this Section 8(c) is knowingly made in
contemplation of such benefits.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement, if any Secured Party may, under applicable Requirements of Law, proceed to realize its
benefits under this Agreement, the other Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement giving any Secured Party a lien upon any Collateral, either by judicial foreclosure or by
non-judicial sale or enforcement, such Secured Party may, at its sole option, determine which of
its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this
Agreement. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, any Secured Party shall forfeit
any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any
Grantor or any other Person, whether because of any applicable Requirements of Law pertaining to
“election of remedies” or the like, each Grantor hereby consents to such action by such Secured
Party and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by such Secured Party shall
result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that such Grantor might otherwise
have had but for such action by such Secured Party.
9. Collections, etc. Until such time during the existence of an Event of Default as the
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall notify such Grantor of the revocation of such power and
authority, each Grantor (a) will, at its own expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due, all
amounts due under any of the Non-Tangible Collateral, including the taking of such action with
respect to such collection as the Third Priority Collateral Agent may reasonably request or, in the
absence of such request, as such Grantor may deem advisable; and (b) may grant, in the ordinary
course of business, to any party obligated on any of the Non-Tangible Collateral, any rebate,
refund or allowance to which such party may be lawfully entitled, and may accept, in connection
therewith, the return of Goods, the sale or lease of which shall have given rise to such
Non-Tangible Collateral. The Third Priority Collateral Agent, however, may, at any time that an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, whether before or after any revocation of such
power and authority or the maturity of any of the Obligations, notify any party obligated on any of
the Non-Tangible Collateral to make payment or otherwise render performance to or for the benefit
of the Third Priority Collateral Agent and enforce, by suit or otherwise, the obligations of any
such party obligated on any Non-Tangible Collateral. In connection therewith, the Third Priority
Collateral Agent may surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or
extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any indebtedness
thereunder or evidenced thereby. Upon request of the Third Priority Collateral Agent following the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor will, at its own
expense, notify any party obligated on any of the Non-Tangible Collateral to make payment to the
Third Priority Collateral Agent of any amounts due or to become due thereunder.
10. Release. Collateral shall from time to time be released from the security interest
created by this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of both the Indenture
and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement. Upon any such release, the Trustee and the
applicable Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent will, at the Grantors’ joint and several
expense, cause the Third Priority Collateral Agent to deliver to the relevant Grantor, without any
representations, warranties or recourse of any kind whatsoever, such released Collateral held by
the Third Priority Collateral Agent or
-18-
Collateral Control Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as
such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release. With respect to any such release,
the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent
shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
delivered in connection with such release, which Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
shall be in the form of Attachments III and IV, respectively.
11. Agreements of the Grantors.
(a) Each Grantor:
(i) will execute such financing statements (or any equivalent filings in the United
Kingdom and the Netherlands) and other documents (and pay the cost of filing or recording
the same in all public offices reasonably determined to be appropriate by the Third Priority
Collateral Agent or the Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent) and do such
other acts and things (including, without limitation, delivery to the Third Priority
Collateral Agent or the Collateral Control Agent of any Instruments and Certificated
Securities which constitute Collateral), all as the Third Priority Collateral Agent or the
Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent may from time to time reasonably
request, to establish and maintain a valid perfected security interest in the Collateral

Permitted Liens) to secure the payment of the Obligations (and each Grantor authorizes the
Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agent to file, without limitation, any financing statement (or any equivalent filings in the
United Kingdom and the Netherlands) that (i) indicates the Collateral (x) as “all property”
or “all assets” of such Grantor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any
particular asset in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC of the
jurisdiction wherein such financing statement is filed, or (y) as being of an equal or
lesser scope or with greater detail, and (ii) contains any other information required by
Section 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of the jurisdiction wherein such financing statement is
filed regarding the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement (or
any equivalent filings in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands), including (x) whether
such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational
identification number issued to such Grantor and (y) in the case of a financing statement

event, each Grantor shall take any such action, and any action listed in clauses (x)
and (xi) below, for the benefit of the Third Priority Collateral Agent to the extent
and at the time it is taking the same action for the benefit of the First Priority
Collateral Agent or Second Priority Collateral Agent;

of business at any location other than, its address(es) shown on Schedules I and

Agent not less than 30 days’ prior written notice;
(iii) will not change its state of organization or incorporation and will not change
its name, identity or corporate structure or its organizational identification number for
the state of its incorporation, formation or organization, in each case such that any
financing statement filed to perfect the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s interests under
this Agreement would become seriously misleading, unless such Grantor shall have given the
Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agent not less than 30 days’ prior notice of
-19-
such change (provided that this Section 11(a)(iii) shall not be deemed
to authorize any change or transaction prohibited under the Indenture or any Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement) and shall have taken or will timely take all action
necessary to maintain continued perfection and priority of the security interest created
hereunder following such change;
(iv) to the extent practicable, will keep its records concerning the Collateral in such
a manner as will enable the Third Priority Collateral Agent or its designees to determine at
any time the status of the Collateral;

information as is available to such Grantor concerning such Grantor, the Collateral and the
Account Debtors as the Third Priority Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably
request;

Third Lien Indebtedness Agent and their designees, from time to time, on reasonable notice
and at reasonable times and intervals during normal business hours (or at any time without
notice if a Default has occurred and is continuing) to inspect, audit and make copies of and
extracts from all records and all other papers in the possession of such Grantor pertaining
to the Collateral and the Account Debtors, and will, upon request of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent during the existence of a Default and to the extent practicable, deliver to
the Third Priority Collateral Agent all of such records and papers;

Notes Documents and each then extant Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or create
or permit to exist any Lien on any Collateral other than Permitted Liens;
(viii) will at all times keep all of its Inventory and other Goods insured under
policies maintained with reputable, financially sound insurance companies against loss,
damage, theft and other risks to such extent as is customarily maintained by companies
similarly situated, following the Discharge of First Priority Claims and Discharge of Second
Priority Claims, and cause all such policies to provide that loss thereunder shall be
payable to the Third Priority Collateral Agent as its interest may appear (it being
understood that (A) so long as no Default shall be continuing, the Third Priority Collateral
Agent shall deliver any proceeds of such insurance which may be received by it to such
Grantor and (B) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default shall be
continuing, the Required Secured Parties may direct (in writing) the Third Priority
Collateral Agent to apply any proceeds of such insurance which may be received by it toward
payment of the Obligations, whether or not due, in such order of application as the Required
Secured Parties may determine) and such policies or certificates thereof shall, if the Third
Priority Collateral Agent so requests, be deposited with or furnished to the Third Priority
Collateral Agent;
(ix) will keep all of the Collateral granted by such Grantor, Deposit Accounts and
Investment Property in the United States or at such other locations outside of the United
States as may be specified in writing to the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agent;
(x) will promptly notify the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in writing upon incurring or otherwise obtaining a
Commercial Tort Claim which is claiming damages in excess of $10,000,000 (or any lesser
amount specified in writing by the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent
or the Third Priority Collateral Agent, if a Default has occurred and is continuing) after
the date hereof against any third party, and concurrently therewith deliver to the Trustee,
in form and sub-
-20-
stance satisfactory to the Trustee, a supplement to Schedule V sufficiently
identifying such Commercial Tort Claim for purposes of Section 9-108 of the UCC;
(xi) will promptly notify the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each
Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in writing upon becoming the beneficiary under any
letter of credit in excess of $10,000,000 (or any lesser amount specified in writing by the
Required Secured Parties or the Third Priority Collateral Agent, if a Default has occurred
and is continuing) and, at the request of the Third Priority Collateral Agent following the
Discharge of First Priority Claims and Discharge of Second Priority Claims, pursuant to an
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Third Priority Collateral Agent, either
(A) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer or other nominated person of such letter of
credit to consent to an assignment to the Third Priority Collateral Agent of such letter of
credit or (B) arrange for the Third Priority Collateral Agent to become the transferee
beneficiary of such letter of credit;
(xii) will promptly notify the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each
Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in writing if such Grantor holds or acquires an
interest in any Electronic Chattel Paper and, at the request of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent take such action as the Third Priority Collateral Agent or the Trustee or
any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent may reasonably request to vest control, under
Section 9-105 of the UCC, of such Electronic Chattel Paper in the Third Priority Collateral
Agent or the Collateral Control Agent;
(xiii) if any Grantor (i) obtains any rights to any additional Intellectual Property
constituting Collateral which is registered with the United States Copyright Office or the
United States Patent & Trademark Office or (ii) becomes entitled to the benefit of any
additional Intellectual Property constituting Collateral or any renewal or extension
thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any
Intellectual Property constituting Collateral which is registered with the United States
Copyright Office or the United States Patent & Trademark Office, or any improvement on any
Intellectual Property constituting Collateral which is registered with the United States
Copyright Office or the United States Patent & Trademark Office, such Grantor will notify
the Third Priority Collateral Agent in writing and use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause a short form security agreement in favor of the Third Priority Collateral Agent to be
filed in the United States Copyright Office or the Unites States Patent & Trademark Office,
as the case may be, with respect to such Intellectual Property; provided that this
covenant shall not apply to “off-the-shelf” license rights of any Grantor in any
Intellectual Property or any other license rights that are not material to such Grantor;
(xiv) acknowledges and agrees that it is not authorized to file any financing statement
in favor of the Third Priority Collateral Agent without the prior written consent of the
Third Priority Collateral Agent and that it will not do so without the prior written consent
of the Third Priority Collateral Agent, subject to such Grantor’s rights under Section
9-509(d)(2) of the UCC;
(xv) agrees that, in the event any Grantor takes any action to grant or perfect a Lien
in favor of the First Priority Collateral Agent in any assets (other than the delivery of
possessory Collateral or the grant of “control” over any Collateral to the Collateral
Control Agent but including actions to perfect security interests under the laws of foreign
jurisdictions), such Grantor shall also take such action to grant or perfect a Lien in
favor of the Third Priority Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations;
(xvi) will facilitate the realization of the Collateral and the exercise of all powers,
authorities and discretions vested by this Agreement in the Third Priority Collateral Agent;
and
-21-
(xvii) shall in particular promptly execute all transfers, conveyances, assignments and
assurances which the Third Priority Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to
preserve or protect its interest in the Collateral.
Any expenses incurred in protecting, preserving or maintaining any Collateral shall be borne
jointly and severally by the Grantors. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event
of Default, the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have the right to bring suit to enforce any
or all of the Intellectual Property or licenses thereunder, in which event the applicable Grantor
shall at the request of the Third Priority Collateral Agent do any and all lawful acts and execute
any and all proper documents reasonably requested by the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the
Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor
shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the
Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent for all costs and expenses incurred by
either of them in the exercise of their rights under this Section 11. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have no obligation or liability regarding the
Collateral or any proceeds thereof by reason of, or arising out of, this Agreement.
(b) Each of RFC and RFC Holding (i) shall execute a written declaration as referred to in
clause 19.12 of the articles of association (statuten) of GMAC RFC International Holdings

delivery of a notice in accordance with Section 6.02 of the Indenture or the delivery of a notice
of acceleration with respect to any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness and (ii) shall not revoke
such written declaration or otherwise take any action that results in such written declaration
being nullified or declared null and void.
(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that (a) it shall (1) not waive any rights under nor
amend, novate, repudiate, rescind or otherwise terminate or permit to be terminated any Assigned

pursue any remedies available to it for any breach of, or in respect of any claim in relation to,

Deed, including, without limitation, granting a power of attorney in favor of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent or Collateral Control Agent in a form set out in Schedule 9 to the Note Issuance
Facility Deed; and (b) all payments received by it in connection with the UK Note, including the
proceeds of any redemption of the UK Note whether as a result of a disposal of any assets or
otherwise, shall be deposited into an account specified by the Third Priority Collateral Agent
pursuant to the written direction of the Trustee from time to time.
12. Agreement as to Investment Property; Voting.
(a) All certificates or Instruments, if any, representing or evidencing any Primary
Collateral, including any Pledged Property, shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of (and,
in the case of the Pledged Notes, endorsed to the order of) the Collateral Control Agent pursuant
hereto, shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, and shall be accompanied by all
necessary endorsements or instruments of transfer or assignment, duly executed in blank;
provided that notes evidencing individual residential mortgage loans included in Primary
Collateral need not be so delivered before September 15, 2008; and provided further that notes
evidencing individual residential mortgage loans that are not included in Primary Collateral need
not be so delivered.
(b) To the extent any of its Primary Collateral constitutes a “certificated security” (as
defined in Section 8-102(a)(4) of the UCC), each Grantor shall take such other actions as necessary
to grant “con-
-22-
trol” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) to the Third Priority Collateral Agent or
Collateral Control Agent over such Collateral.
(c) Not later than the earlier of (i) September 15, 2008 and (ii) the date specified by the
Required Secured Parties following an Event of Default, to the extent any of its Primary Collateral
constitutes an “uncertificated security” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(18) of the UCC) with a
Carrying Value of $10,000,000 or more, each Grantor shall take and cause the appropriate Person
(including any issuer, entitlement holder or securities intermediary thereof) to take all actions
necessary to grant “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) to the Collateral Control
Agent over such Primary Collateral including, without limitation, causing delivery of such Primary
Collateral or causing the issuer of such Primary Collateral, as appropriate, to agree to comply
with the instructions originated by the Collateral Control Agent without further consent by the
registered owner thereof.
(d) Not later than the earlier of (i) September 15, 2008 and (ii) the date specified by the
Required Secured Parties following an Event of Default, to the extent any of its Primary Collateral
constitutes a “security entitlement” or a “securities account” (as such terms are defined in
Sections 8-102(a)(17) and 8-501(a), respectively, of the UCC), each Grantor shall take and cause
the appropriate Person (including any securities intermediary thereof) to take all actions
necessary to grant “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) to the Collateral Control
Agent over such Primary Collateral including, without limitation, causing to be delivered to the
Collateral Control Agent an agreement, executed by the securities intermediary thereof whereby such
securities intermediary agrees (i) that it will comply with entitlement orders originated by the
Collateral Control Agent without further consent by such Grantor or any other Person with respect
to all such Primary Collateral (it being understood that such agreement may provide that at all
times when such securities intermediary has not been notified by the Collateral Control Agent to
the contrary, the securities intermediary may comply with entitlement orders of such Grantor), (ii)
to subordinate any security interest it may have in and to all such Primary Collateral to the
security interest of the Collateral Control Agent therein, and (iii) that it will not agree with
any Person other than the Collateral Control Agent in any manner that would grant such Person
“control” over any such Primary Collateral without the Required Secured Parties’ prior written
consent.
(e) Each Pledgor will, from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Control Agent or
the Third Priority Collateral Agent, promptly deliver to the Collateral Control Agent such stock
powers, instruments, and similar documents, satisfactory in form and substance, following the
Discharge of First Priority Claims and the Discharge of Second Priority Claims, to the Trustee and
the Third Priority Collateral Agent, with respect to the Collateral as the Collateral Control Agent
or the Third Priority Collateral Agent may reasonably request and will, from time to time upon the
request of the Collateral Control Agent or the Third Priority Collateral Agent after the occurrence
of any Default, promptly transfer any Pledged Shares, Pledged Interests or other shares of common
stock, member interests or other ownership interests constituting Collateral into the name of any
nominee, designated by the Trustee following the Discharge of First Priority Claims and Discharge
of Second Priority Claims.
(f) Subject to clause (g) below, each Pledgor will, at all times, keep pledged to the
Third Priority Collateral Agent or Collateral Control Agent, as the case may be, pursuant to the
Intercreditor Agreement, all Pledged Shares, Pledged Interests and all other shares of capital
stock, member interests or other ownership interests constituting Collateral, and all securities,
security entitlements and securities accounts constituting Collateral, Dividends and Distributions
with respect thereto, all Pledged Notes, all interest, principal and other proceeds received by the
Third Priority Collateral Agent with respect to the Pledged Notes, all Pledged Note Liens and all
other Collateral and other securities, instruments, security entitlements, financial assets,
investment property, proceeds, and rights from time to time received by or distributable to a
Pledgor in respect of any Collateral.
-23-
(g) In the event that any Dividend or Distribution is to be paid on any Pledged Share or any
Pledged Interest or any payment of principal or interest is to be made on any Pledged Note at a
time when no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Dividend, Distribution or
payment may be paid directly to the relevant Grantor. If any Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, then any such Dividend, Distribution or payment shall following the Discharge of First
Priority Claims and Discharge of Second Priority Claims be paid directly to the Third Priority
Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 12(h).
(h) Following the Discharge of First Priority Claims and Discharge of Second Priority Claims,
each Pledgor agrees:
(i) following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
promptly upon receipt thereof by any Pledgor and without any request therefor by the Third
Priority Collateral Agent, to deliver (properly endorsed where required hereby or requested
by the Third Priority Collateral Agent) to the Third Priority Collateral Agent all
Dividends, Distributions, all interest, all principal, all other cash payments, and all
proceeds of the Collateral, all of which shall be held by the Third Priority Collateral
Agent as additional Collateral for use in accordance with Section 13(f); and
(ii) after any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Third
Priority Collateral Agent has notified the relevant Pledgor of the Third Priority Collateral
Agent’s intention to exercise its voting power under this clause (ii), (A) the Third
Priority Collateral Agent may exercise (to the exclusion of such Pledgor) the voting power
and all other incidental rights of ownership with respect to any Pledged Shares, Pledged
Interests or other shares of capital stock, member interests or other ownership interests
constituting Collateral and EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY GRANTS THE THIRD PRIORITY COLLATERAL AGENT
AN IRREVOCABLE PROXY, EXERCISABLE UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES, TO VOTE THE PLEDGED SHARES, THE
PLEDGED INTERESTS AND SUCH OTHER COLLATERAL, WITH SUCH PROXY TO REMAIN VALID UNTIL THE
PAYMENT IN FULL IN CASH OF ALL OBLIGATIONS; and (B) promptly to deliver to the Third
Priority Collateral Agent such additional proxies and other documents as may be necessary to
allow the Third Priority Collateral Agent to exercise such voting power.
(i) All Dividends, Distributions, interest, principal, cash payments, and proceeds and all
rights under the UK Note and the UK Note Related Security which may at any time and from time to
time be held by a Pledgor but which such Pledgor is then obligated to deliver to the Third Priority
Collateral Agent, shall, until delivery to the Third Priority Collateral Agent, be held by such
Pledgor separate and apart from its other property in trust for the Third Priority Collateral
Agent. The Third Priority Collateral Agent agrees that unless it has received written notice from
the Required Secured Parties that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have given the notice referred to in Section
12(h)(ii), such Pledgor shall have the exclusive voting power with respect to any shares of
capital stock, member interests or other ownership interest (including any of the Pledged Shares,
Pledged Interests or UK Pledged Shares) constituting Collateral and the Third Priority Collateral
Agent shall, upon the written request of such Pledgor, promptly deliver (at the Grantors’ joint and
several expense) such proxies and other documents, if any, as shall be reasonably requested by such
Pledgor which are necessary to allow such Pledgor to exercise voting power with respect to any such
share of capital stock, member interests or other ownership interests (including any of the Pledged
Shares, Pledged Interests or UK Pledged Shares) constituting Collateral; provided,
however, that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver, or ratification given, or action
taken by any Pledgor that could reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the
interests of the Third Priority Collateral Agent and the other Se-
-24-
cured Parties or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of the Indenture, any other
Notes Document (including this Agreement) or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtednesss Agreement.
(j) No Pledgor will, without the prior written consent of the Trustee and each Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agent: (A) enter into any agreement amending, supplementing, or waiving in
any material respect any provision of any Pledged Note, any Pledged Note Lien or any UK Pledged
Share (including the underlying instrument pursuant to which such Pledged Note, Pledged Note Lien
or UK Pledged Share is issued) or compromising or releasing or extending the time for payment of
any obligation of the maker thereof, (B) take or omit to take any action the taking or the omission
of that would result in any impairment or alteration of any obligation of the maker of Pledged
Note, Pledged Note Lien, UK Pledged Share or other instrument constituting Collateral, (C) permit
the issuance of (x) any additional equity interests of any Pledged Share Issuer or Pledged Interest
Issuer (unless immediately upon such issuance the same are pledged and delivered to the Third
Priority Collateral Agent, the Collateral Control Agent, the First Priority Collateral Agent or the
Second Priority Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof and the Intercreditor Agreement to
the extent necessary to give the Third Priority Collateral Agent a security interest after such
issue in at least the same percentage of such Pledgor’s outstanding interests as before such
issue), (y) any securities or other ownership interests convertible voluntarily by the holder
thereof or automatically upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or condition into, or
exchangeable for, any such shares or other ownership interests, or (z) any warrants, options,
contracts or other commitments entitling any Person to purchase or otherwise acquire any such
shares or other ownership interests, or (D) enter into any agreement creating or otherwise permit
to exist, any restriction or condition upon the transfer, voting or control of any Pledged Share,
Pledged Interest or UK Pledged Share that could reasonably be deemed to be adverse to the Secured
Parties. Each Pledgor shall provide, or cause the relevant Pledged Share Issuer or Pledged
Interest Issuer to provide, the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agent with a copy of any amendment or supplement to, or modification or
waiver of, any term or provision of any of the organizational documents of such relevant Pledged
Share Issuer or Pledged Interest Issuer; provided that such Pledgor shall not enter into
any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of the organizational documents of such
relevant Pledged Share Issuer or Pledged Interest Issuer which could reasonably be expected to be
adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties. The Pledgors covenant and agree that they shall
not consent to or permit (1) any Pledged Interest to be dealt with or traded on any securities
exchanges or in any securities market or (2) any Pledge Interest Issuer to elect to have its
Pledged Interests treated as a “security” under Article 8 of the UCC unless the relevant Pledgors
have (I) caused such Pledged Interest to be certificated and (II) delivered all certificates
evidencing such Pledged Interest to the Collateral Control Agent, together with duly executed
undated blank transfer powers, or other equivalent instruments of transfer.
(k) Each Pledgor shall take such actions such that its Collateral consisting of Pledged
Interests and Pledged Shares at all times shall be duly authorized, validly registered, fully paid
and non-assessable, and shall not be registered in violation of the organic documents of the
Pledgors or the preemptive rights of any Person, if any, or of any agreement by which the Pledgors
or any Pledged Share Issuer or Pledged Interest Issuer is bound.
13. Defaults and Events of Default; Remedies.
(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Third Priority Collateral Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of
such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Third Priority
Collateral Agent may request to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including (i) to ask,
demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys
due and to become due under or in respect
-25-
of any of the Collateral, (ii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other Collateral
in connection with clause (i) above, (iii) to file any claims or take any action or
institute any proceedings which the Third Priority Collateral Agent may request for the collection
of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Third Priority Collateral Agent
and the other Secured Parties with respect to any of the Collateral, and (iv) to perform the
affirmative obligations of such Grantor hereunder. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES, CONSENTS AND
AGREES THAT THE POWER OF ATTORNEY GRANTED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 13 IS IRREVOCABLE AND
COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL ALL OBLIGATIONS HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL IN
CASH.
(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to its rights in
the foregoing clause (a) and without limiting the generality of such clause, the Third
Priority Collateral Agent may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it
under the UCC, under any other applicable Requirements of Law and in the clauses (c)
through (g) set forth below in this Section 13.
(c) Each Grantor agrees, (i) at the Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent’s
request if a Default has occurred and is continuing, to assemble, at its expense, all its Inventory
and other Goods (other than Fixtures) and all records for all Collateral at a convenient place or
places acceptable to the Required Secured Parties, and (ii) if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, at the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s or Required Secured Parties’ request, to
execute all such documents and do all such other things which may be necessary or desirable in
order to enable the Third Priority Collateral Agent or its nominee to be registered as owner of the
Intellectual Property with any competent registration authority.
(d) Notice of the intended disposition of any Collateral may be given by first-class mail,
hand-delivery (through a delivery service or otherwise), facsimile or E-mail, and shall be deemed
to have been “sent” upon deposit in the U.S. mails with adequate postage properly affixed, upon
delivery to an express delivery service, upon the electronic submission through telephonic services
or, if by facsimile transmission, when sent against mechanical confirmation of successful
transmission, as applicable. Each Grantor hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) with respect to
Collateral that is (A) perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or (B) is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market, no notice of disposition need be given; and (ii) with
respect to Collateral not described in clause (i) above, notification sent after default
and at least ten days before any proposed disposition provides notice within a reasonable time
before disposition.
(e) Each Grantor hereby agrees and acknowledges that a commercially reasonable disposition of
Inventory, Equipment, Computer Hardware and Software, or Intellectual Property may be by lease or
license of, in addition to the sale of, such Collateral. Each Grantor further agrees and
acknowledges that a disposition (i) made in the usual manner on any recognized market, (ii) at the
price current in any recognized market at the time of disposition or (iii) in conformity with
reasonable commercial practices among dealers in the type of property subject to the disposition
shall, in each case, be deemed commercially reasonable.
(f) Any cash proceeds of any disposition by the Third Priority Collateral Agent of any of the
Collateral shall be applied by the Third Priority Collateral Agent first to payment of the Third
Priority Collateral Agent’s and Collateral Control Agent’s expenses in connection with the
Collateral, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, second without
duplication of amounts applied pursuant to clause first above, to the indefeasible payment
in full in cash, pro rata, based on the amount of Obligations outstanding under the Indenture and
each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement and then due and owing to (i) the Trustee to be
applied as provided in the Indenture, and (ii) each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent to be
applied as provided in the applicable Pari Passu Third Lien Indebt-
-26-
edness Agreement; and, the balance, if any, to such Grantor or as otherwise directed by a
court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the Third Priority Collateral Agent nor any other Secured
Party need apply or pay over for application noncash proceeds of collection and enforcement unless
(i) the failure to do so would be commercially unreasonable and (ii) the applicable Grantor has
provided the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agent with a written demand to apply or pay over such noncash proceeds on such basis.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it
may acquire against the Third Priority Collateral Agent arising out of the exercise by the Third
Priority Collateral Agent of any rights hereunder.
(g) [Reserved].
(h) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Third Priority Collateral
Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided
for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default
under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may, without
notice except as specified below (or, if notice cannot be waived under the UCC, as required to be
provided by the UCC) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or
private sale, at any of the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on
credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Third Priority Collateral Agent may
deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be
required by law, at least ten (10) days’ prior 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. The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of
Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Third Priority Collateral 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.
(i) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Third Priority Collateral
Agent may transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Third Priority Collateral
Agent or its nominee, with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the lien and
security interest hereunder, notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment
to the Third Priority Collateral Agent of any amount due or to become due thereunder, enforce
collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or
any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the
original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto, endorse any
checks, drafts, or other writings in any Grantor’s name to allow collection of the Collateral, take
control of any proceeds of the Collateral, and execute (in the name, place and stead of each
Grantor) endorsements, assignments, transfer powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer
with respect to all or any of the Collateral.
(j) Each Grantor agrees that in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Third Priority Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to
comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by
counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable Requirements of Law (including
compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers,
require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such
prospective bidders and purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing
for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such
Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any
governmental regulatory authority or official, and each Grantor further agrees that such compliance
shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially
reasonable manner, nor shall the Third Priority Collateral Agent be liable nor accountable to the
Grantors for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in
compliance with any such limitation or restriction. The Third Priority Collateral Agent
-27-
may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties or representations as to the Collateral.
The Third Priority Collateral Agent may disclaim 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.
14. Limitation on Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care
in the custody and preservation thereof, neither the Third Priority Collateral Agent nor any other
Secured Party will have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the
possession or control of any sub-agent or bailee or any income therefrom or as to the preservation
of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Third Priority
Collateral Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation
of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment
substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or
responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof,
by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by the Third Priority
Collateral Agent in good faith or by reason of any act or omission by the Third Priority Collateral
Agent pursuant to instructions from the Third Priority Collateral Agent, except to the extent that
such liability arises from the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct.
To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Third Priority Collateral Agent to
exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it
is commercially reasonable for the Third Priority Collateral Agent (a) to fail to incur expenses
reasonably deemed significant by the Required Secured Parties or to prepare Collateral for
disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work-in-process into finished goods or other
finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to
Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain
governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be
collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or
other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims
against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons
obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection
specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general
circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other
Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Grantors, for expressions of interest in
acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to
assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature,
(h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing 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, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail
markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, including, without limitation, any warranties of
title, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Third Priority Collateral
Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral, or to provide to the Third
Priority Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral or
(l) to obtain the services of brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to
assist the Third Priority Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the
Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide
non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Third Priority Collateral Agent
would not be commercially unreasonable in the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s exercise of
remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being
specifically referred to in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained
in this Section shall be construed to grant any right to a Grantor or to impose any duties on the
Third Priority Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by
applicable Requirements of Law in the absence of this Section.

15. Special Provisions Relating to the Third Priority Collateral Agent. The following
provisions shall govern the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s rights, powers, obligations and
duties under this Agreement, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary:
(a) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have no duty to act, consent or request
any action of the Grantors or any other Person in connection with this Third Priority Pledge
and Security Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy (including all schedules and exhibits attached
hereto) unless the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have received written direction
from the Trustee and/or other Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agents, in each case,
acting on behalf of the Required Secured Parties.
(b) All indemnities to be paid under this Agreement shall be payable immediately when
due in U.S. dollars (“Dollars”) in the full amount due, without deduction for any
variation in any Rate of Exchange (as defined below). The Grantors hereby agree to jointly
and severally indemnify the Third Priority Collateral Agent against any losses, damages,
penalties, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including,
without limitation, attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred by the Third Priority Collateral
Agent as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for the amount due hereunder
and such judgment or order being expressed and paid in a currency (the “Judgment
Currency”) other than Dollars and as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate
of exchange at which the dollar amount is converted into Judgment Currency for the purpose
of such judgment or order, and (ii) the Rate of Exchange at which the Third Priority
Collateral Agent is then able to purchase Dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency
actually received by the Third Priority Collateral Agent. The indemnity set forth in this
paragraph shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Grantors and shall
continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid.
The term “Rate of Exchange” means the rate at which the Third Priority Collateral Agent is
able to purchase Dollars with the Judgment Currency on the foreign exchange market on the
relevant date and shall include any premiums and other reasonable costs of exchange payable
in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency. The
indemnification set forth in this Section 15 shall survive the termination or
assignment of this Third Priority Pledge and Security Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy and
the resignation or removal of the Third Priority Collateral Agent.
(c) For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any inconsistency between the terms of this
Third Priority Pledge and Security Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy and those of the
Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall prevail.
(d) Each of the Trustee, the Holders, each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent and
each holder of Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness hereby designate and appoint Xxxxx Fargo
Bank, N.A. to act as the Third Priority Collateral Agent under this Agreement, the other
Notes Documents and any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement to which it is a party,
and hereby authorize the Third Priority Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf
under the provisions of this Agreement, such other Notes Documents and each Pari Passu Third
Lien Indebtedness Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are
expressly delegated to the Third Priority Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement,
such other Notes Documents and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, any other Notes
Document or any such Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, the Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set
forth in this Agreement, such other Notes Documents and each such Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agreement or any fiduciary rela-
-29-
tionship with the Secured Parties, and no implied covenants, functions or
responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Third
Priority Collateral Agent.
(e) The trustee agrees to render to the Third Priority Collateral Agent, at any time
upon request of the Third Priority Collateral Agent, an accounting of the amounts of the
Obligations owing to the Holders and such other information with respect to the Obligations
owing to each such Person as the Third Priority Collateral Agent may reasonably request in
order to give effect to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event that the
Trustee fails to provide any information required to be provided by it to the Third Priority
Collateral Agent, then the Third Priority Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated
to) (i) take such actions as are required to be taken by it based on the most recent
information available to it or (ii) in the case of any distributions to be made pursuant to
the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, hold the Holders’
share or purported share in escrow (without obligation to pay interest thereon) until the
Trustee provides the required information.
(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Third
Priority Collateral Agent have any obligation to inquire or investigate as to the
correctness, veracity, or content of any instruction received from the Trustee or any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent on behalf of the Required Secured Parties. In no event
shall the Third Priority Collateral Agent have any liability in respect of any such
instruction received by it and relied on with respect to any action or omission taken
pursuant thereto.
(g) The Third Priority Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement by
or through agents, experts or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, experts or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith.
(h) Neither the Third Priority Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action
lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement, any
of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement (except for its
gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) responsible in any manner to any Secured
Party for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties (other than its own
recitals, statements, representations or warranties) made in this Agreement, any of the
Notes Documents or Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or in any certificate,
report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Third
Priority Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement, any of the Notes
Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any of the
Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or for any failure of
the Grantors or any other Person to perform their obligations hereunder and thereunder. The
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Secured Party or
any other Person to ascertain or to inquire as to (i) the observance or performance of any
of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents
or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or to inspect the properties, books or
records of the Grantors, (ii) whether or not any representation or warranty made by any
Person in connection with this Agreement, any Notes Document or any Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agreement is true, (iii) the performance by any Person of its obligations under
this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement or (iv) the
-30-
breach of or default by any Person of its obligations under this Agreement, any of the
Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement.
(i) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall not be bound to (i) account to any Person
for any sum or the profit element of any sum received for its own account; (ii) disclose to
any other Person any information relating to the Person if such disclosure would, or might,
constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any
Person; (iii) be under any fiduciary duties or obligations other than those for which
express provision is made in this Agreement, in any of the Notes Documents or in any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement to which it is a party; or (iv) be required to take
any action that it believes, based on advice of counsel, is in conflict with any applicable
law, this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement, or any order of any court or administrative agency.
(j) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof and except as
otherwise specifically stated in this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have no
duty as to any of the Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or
control of any agent or bailee or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining thereto.
(k) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be authorized to but shall not be
responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents
or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or
monitoring or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. It is
expressly agreed, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, that the Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for (i) taking any necessary steps to preserve
rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral or (ii) taking any action to
protect against any diminution in value of the Collateral, but, in each case (A) subject to
the requirement that the Third Priority Collateral Agent may not act or omit to take any
action if such act or omission would constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct and (B) the Third Priority Collateral Agent may do so and all expenses reasonably
incurred in connection therewith shall be part of the Obligations.
(l) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss
or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any
carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Third Priority
Collateral Agent in good faith, except to the extent of the Third Priority Collateral
Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(m) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for, nor incur any
liability with respect to, (i) the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral
or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the security interest in any
of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or
omission to act on its part under this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, except to the extent such action or omission
constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Third
Priority Collateral Agent, (ii) the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any
agreement or assignment contained therein, (iii) the validity of the title of the Grantors
to the Collateral, (iv) insuring the Collateral or (v) the payment of taxes, charges or
assessments upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.
(n) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement to the contrary, (i) in no event shall the Third Pri-
-31-
ority Collateral Agent or any officer, director, employee, representative or agent of
the Third Priority Collateral Agent be liable under or in connection with this Agreement,
any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement for indirect,
special, incidental, punitive or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever,
including but not limited to lost profits or loss of opportunity, whether or not
foreseeable, even if the Third Priority Collateral Agent has been advised of the possibility
thereof and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought; and (ii) the
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be afforded all of the rights, powers, immunities and
indemnities set forth in this Agreement in all of the Notes Documents and each Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement to which it is a signatory as if such rights, powers,
immunities and indemnities were specifically set out in each such Notes Document or Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, as applicable. In no event shall the Third
Priority Collateral Agent be obligated to invest any amounts received by it hereunder.
(o) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be entitled conclusively to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, request, direction,
certificate, notice, consent, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, email, telex
or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it in
good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person or Persons and/or upon advice and/or statements of legal counsel, independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Third Priority Collateral Agent and need not
investigate any fact or matter stated in any such document. Any such statement of legal
counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action
taken or suffered by it hereunder in accordance therewith. Any statement or advice of
counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate of an
officer of the Trustee. In connection with any request or direction of the Trustee, the
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be entitled conclusively to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any instruction delivered by the Trustee. The Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under
this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement (i) if such action would, in the reasonable opinion of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent (which may be based on the opinion of legal counsel), be contrary to
applicable law, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement, (ii) if such action is not specifically provided for in this Agreement or any of
the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, (iii) if, in
connection with the taking of any such action hereunder or under any of the Notes Documents
or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement that would constitute an exercise of
remedies hereunder, under any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agreement it shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Trustee
and/or Holders against any and all risk of nonpayment, liability and expense that may be
incurred by it, its agents or its counsel by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action, or (iv) if, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in
connection with the taking of any such action that would constitute a payment due under any
agreement or document, it shall not first have received from the Trustee and/or Holders or
the Grantors funds equal to the amount payable. The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this
Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement in
accordance with a request of the Trustee, and such request and any action taken or failure
to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the other Secured Parties.
(p) If, with respect to a proposed action to be taken by it, a Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall determine in good faith that the provisions of this Agreement, any
other Notes Document or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement relating to the
functions or responsibilities or discretionary powers of the Third Priority Collateral Agent
are or may be ambiguous or
-32-
inconsistent, the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall notify the Trustee and each
Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent, identifying the proposed action, and may decline
either to perform such function or responsibility or to take the action requested unless it
has received the written confirmation of the Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agent that the action proposed to be taken by the Third Priority Collateral
Agent is consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or is otherwise appropriate. The Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon the
confirmation of the Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent on behalf of the
Required Secured Parties, in this respect, and such confirmation shall be binding upon the
Secured Parties.
(q) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have actual,
constructive, direct or indirect knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default unless
and until the Third Priority Collateral Agent has received a written notice or a certificate
from the Trustee, any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent or the Grantors stating that
a Default has occurred. The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall have no obligation
whatsoever either prior to or after receiving such notice or certificate to inquire whether
a Default has in fact occurred and shall be entitled to rely conclusively, and shall be
fully protected in so relying, on any notice or certificate so furnished to it. No
provision of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any of the Notes Documents or
any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement shall require the Third Priority Collateral
Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents, under any
Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement or the exercise of any of its rights or powers,
if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability including an advance of moneys necessary to perform
work or to take the action requested is not reasonably assured to it, the Third Priority
Collateral Agent may decline to act unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it in its
sole discretion, including an advance of moneys necessary to take the action requested. The
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation or duty to take any action
under this Agreement, any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement or otherwise if taking such action (i) would subject the Third Priority Collateral
Agent to a tax in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to a tax or (ii) would
require the Third Priority Collateral Agent to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction
where it is not then so qualified.
(r) Notwithstanding that the Third Priority Collateral Agent is appointed by and acting
for and at the direction of the Secured Parties, the Grantors will jointly and severally pay
upon demand to the Third Priority Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable fees
(including any as set forth in one or more separate fee letters of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent) and out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of
its counsel, that the Third Priority Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the
negotiation, performance or administration of this Agreement, the Notes Documents and each
Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement to which it is a party, (ii) the custody or
preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the
Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of any of the rights of the Third Priority Collateral Agent or the
other Secured Parties hereunder, under the Notes Documents or under any Pari Passu Third
Lien Indebtedness Agreement or (iv) the failure by the Grantors to perform or observe any of
the provisions hereof or of any of the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agreement. The provisions of this section shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and resignation or removal of the Third Priority Collateral Agent. The
expenses of the Third Priority Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions
undertaken as provided in this Section 15 shall be payable jointly and severally by
the Grantors to the Third Priority Collat-
-33-
eral Agent upon demand therefor (which demand shall be accompanied by an appropriate
invoice).
(s) Each of the Secured Parties expressly acknowledges that neither the Third Priority
Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact
has made any representations or warranties to it (except as expressly provided herein) and
that no act by the Third Priority Collateral Agent hereafter taken, including any review of
the Grantors, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Third
Priority Collateral Agent to any Secured Party. The Trustee and the Holders represent to
the Third Priority Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Third Priority Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into
the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of
the Grantors. The Trustee and the Holders also represent that each will, independently and
without reliance upon the Third Priority Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue
to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself
as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness
of the Grantors. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be
furnished to the Secured Parties by the Third Priority Collateral Agent hereunder, the Third
Priority Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured
Party with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property,
financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Grantors which may come into the
possession of the Third Priority Collateral Agent or any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact.
(t) The Grantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify each of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact
(collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) or disbursements of any kind
whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any
Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Notes
Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement; provided that the
Grantors shall not be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements to the extent that any of the foregoing result from any such Indemnified
Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction beyond all applicable appeals.
(u) Subject to clause (bb) below, neither the Third Priority Collateral Agent,
any Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall
be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any 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 the Grantors or any other Person or to take any other action
whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Subject to clause
(bb) below, the powers conferred on the Third Priority Collateral Agent hereunder are
solely to protect the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests
in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Third Priority Collateral Agent to
exercise any such powers. The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for
amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it
nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Grantors
for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct.
-34-
(v) Pursuant to any applicable law, the Grantors authorize the Third Priority
Collateral Agent without obligation to file or record financing statements and other filing
or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signatures
of the Grantors in such form and in such offices as the Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Third
Priority Collateral Agent under this Agreement. The Grantors hereby ratify and authorize
the filing by the Third Priority Collateral Agent of any financing statement with respect to
the Collateral made prior to the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything
else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the Third Priority
Collateral Agent have any duty or obligation to monitor the perfection, continuation of
perfection or the sufficiency or validity of any security interest in or related to the
Collateral or to prepare or file any Uniform Commercial Code financing statement or
continuation statement.
(w) The Grantors acknowledge that the rights and responsibilities of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Third Priority
Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Third Priority Collateral Agent of
any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or
resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Third Priority Collateral
Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by such agreements with respect thereto as may
exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Third Priority Collateral Agent and
the Grantors, the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be
acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain
from acting, and the Grantors shall not be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any
inquiry respecting such authority.
(x) Any corporation into which the Third Priority Collateral Agent may be merged, or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall be a party, shall become a
Third Priority Collateral Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto.
(y) The Third Priority Collateral Agent may resign as Third Priority Collateral Agent
at any time upon written notice to the Trustee, each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agent and the Grantors and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Trustee
and/or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in each case acting on behalf of the
Required Secured Parties, with any such resignation or removal to become effective only upon
the appointment of a successor Third Priority Collateral Agent under this Section. If the
Third Priority Collateral Agent shall provide notice of its resignation or be removed as
Third Priority Collateral Agent, then the Required Secured Parties (and if no such successor
shall have been appointed within 45 days of the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s
resignation or removal, the Third Priority Collateral Agent may) appoint a successor agent
for the Secured Parties, which successor agent shall, in the case of any appointment by the
Third Priority Collateral Agent, be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and/or any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in each case acting on behalf of the Required Secured
Parties, and the former Third Priority Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Third
Priority Collateral Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former Third Priority Collateral Agent (except that the resigning Third
Priority Collateral Agent at the joint and several expense of the Grantors shall deliver all
Collateral then in its possession to the successor Third Priority Collateral Agent and shall
execute and deliver to the successor Third Priority Collateral Agent such instruments of
assignment and transfer and other similar documents as such successor Third Priority
Collateral Agent shall deem necessary or advisable) or any of the Secured Parties. After
any retiring Third Priority Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Third
Priority Collateral Agent, the provi-
-35-
sions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted
to be taken by it while it was Third Priority Collateral Agent. In the event that a
successor Third Priority Collateral Agent is not appointed within the time period specified
in this Section 15 following the provision of a notice of resignation or removal of
the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Third Priority Collateral Agent or any Secured
Party may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Third Priority Collateral Agent (at the joint and several expense of the Grantors).
(z) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall maintain accurate and complete accounts,
books, records and computer systems with respect to all matters related directly to the
administration of the Collateral, in each case consistent with the customary procedures of
the Third Priority Collateral Agent.
(aa) The Third Priority Collateral Agent shall at the Grantors’ joint and several
expense make available to the Trustee, each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent and
their duly authorized representatives, attorneys and auditors, the files and accounts,
books, records and computer systems maintained by the Third Priority Collateral Agent or any
subcontractor or agent thereof in respect of the Collateral at the locations where such
files, accounts, books, records and computer systems are maintained pursuant to this
Agreement and the other Notes Documents and any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement, during normal business hours and subject to reasonable prior written notice.
(bb) Upon receipt of indemnity requested by the Third Priority Collateral Agent and
assuming the requested action does not conflict with other clauses of this Section
15, the Third Priority Collateral Agent shall act upon the specific instructions of the
Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent on behalf of the Required Secured
Parties, except for any instructions that in the good faith judgment of the Third Priority
Collateral Agent may be contrary to any Security Document or applicable law.
For the sake of clarity, the parties intend that the term “Notes Documents” includes all
English Security Documents and Account Control Agreements (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit
Facility as in effect on the Issue Date).
(cc) The Collateral Control Agent shall be entitled to all of the same rights,
protections, immunities and indemnities under this Agreement as are afforded to it under the
Intercreditor Agreement, as if fully set forth herein.
For the avoidance of doubt, only the Trustee or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent
on behalf of the Required Secured Parties are entitled to direct the Collateral Control Agent to
act, consent or request any action in connection with this Agreement.
16. General. With respect to each Subsidiary that becomes a Guarantor pursuant to Section
4.17 of the Indenture or as otherwise required by the Notes Documents or any Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness Agreement, the Grantors shall and at the option of the relevant Grantor, with respect
to any Subsidiary that is not a Grantor, a Grantor may, cause such Subsidiary to become a Grantor
hereunder, and such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Third Priority Collateral Agent
(with a copy to the Trustee, each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent and the Collateral
Control Agent) a joinder agreement substantially in the form of Attachment II (each a
“Joinder Agreement”) and such Subsidiary shall thereafter for all purposes be a party
hereto and have the same rights and obligations as a Grantor party hereto on the Issue Date.
-36-
Each Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement is
sufficient as a financing statement. The Grantors hereby ratify their authorization contained in
Section 11(a) for the Third Priority Collateral Agent to have filed in any Uniform
Commercial Code jurisdiction prior to the date hereof any financing statement or amendment thereto
filed prior to the date hereof.
All notices hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission) and shall be
sent, in the case of any Grantor, to the address of such Grantor shown in Schedule I hereto
and, in the case of the Third Priority Collateral Agent, at its address set forth beneath its
signature page hereto, or to such other address as such party may, by written notice received by
the other parties, have designated as its address for such purpose. Notices sent by facsimile
transmission or e-mail shall be deemed to have been given when sent against mechanical confirmation
of successful transmission; notices sent by mail shall be deemed to have been given three Business
Days after the date when sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid; and notices sent by
hand delivery or overnight courier shall be deemed to have been given when received.
Each of the Grantors agrees to pay, jointly and severally, all fees and expenses, including
attorneys’ fees paid or incurred by the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Trustee or any Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent in endeavoring to collect all or any portion of the
Obligations, or any part thereof, and in enforcing this Agreement against such Grantor, and all
such fees and expenses shall constitute Obligations.
No delay on the part of the Third Priority Collateral Agent in the exercise of any right or
remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Third Priority
Collateral Agent of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or remedy.
This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until both (i) occurrence of the earlier
of (a) the discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article XI thereof and (b) the satisfaction of
the conditions in Article XIII of the Indenture with respect to a Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance of the Indenture and (ii) in the case of each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement, the repayment of the Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness under such agreement which
entitles the Grantors to obtain a release of the Liens securing such Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness under the Security Documents. If at any time all or any part of any payment
theretofore applied by the Third Priority Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to any of the
Obligations is or must be rescinded or returned by the Third Priority Collateral Agent or such
Secured Party for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization of any Grantor), such Obligations shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, to
the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in
existence, notwithstanding such application by the Third Priority Collateral Agent or such Secured
Party, and this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as
to such Obligations, all as though such application by the Third Priority Collateral Agent or such
Secured Party had not been made.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to
be effective and valid under applicable Requirements of Law, but if any provision of this Agreement
shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or
the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Consistent with the foregoing, and notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any action or proceeding is
brought in whatever form and in whatever forum seeking to invalidate any Grantor’s obligations
under this Agreement under any fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer theory, or similar avoidance
theory, whether under state
or federal law, such Grantor (the “Affected Person”), automatically and without any further
action being required of
-37-
such Affected Person or any Secured Party, shall be liable under this Agreement only for an
amount equal to the maximum amount of liability that could have been incurred under applicable law
by such Affected Person under any pledge to secure the Obligations (or any portion thereof) at the
time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement (or, if such date is determined not to be the
appropriate date for determining the enforceability of such Affected Person’s obligations hereunder
for fraudulent conveyance or transfer (or similar avoidance) purposes, on the date determined to be
so appropriate) without rendering such a hypothetical pledge voidable under applicable Requirements
of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, or any other grounds for avoidance
(such highest amount determined hereunder being any such Affected Person’s “Maximum
Amount”), and not for any greater amount, as if the stated amount of this Pledge Agreement as
to such Affected Person had instead been the Maximum Amount. This paragraph is intended solely to
preserve the rights of Secured Parties under this Agreement to the maximum extent not subject to
avoidance under applicable Requirements of Law, and neither any Affected Person nor any other
person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to the limitation
described in this Agreement, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Affected
Person under this Agreement shall not be rendered voidable under applicable Requirements of Law.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the determination of a Maximum Amount for any
Affected Person pursuant to the provisions of the second preceding sentence of this Section shall
not in any manner reduce or otherwise affect the obligations of any other Grantor (including any
other Affected Person) under the provisions of this Agreement.
This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i)
remain in full force and effect until both (1) the occurrence of the earlier of (a) the discharge
of the Indenture pursuant to Article XI thereof and (b) the satisfaction of the conditions in
Article XIII of the Indenture with respect to a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the
Indenture and (2) in the case of each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, the repayment
of the Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness under such agreement which entitles the Grantors to
obtain a release of the Liens securing such Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness under the Security
Documents, (b) be binding upon each Grantor and its successors, transferees and assigns, and (c)
inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Third Priority Collateral Agent hereunder, to
the benefit of the Third Priority Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party and its respective
successors, transferees and assigns. No Grantor may assign (unless otherwise permitted under the
terms of the Notes Documents and any extant Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement) any of
its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Trustee and each Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agent.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties
hereto on separate counterparts, and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but
all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement. At any time after the
date of this Agreement, one or more additional Persons may become parties hereto by executing and
delivering to the Third Priority Collateral Agent a counterpart of this Agreement together with
supplements to the Schedules hereto setting forth all relevant information with respect to such
party as of the date of such delivery. Immediately upon such execution and delivery (and without
any further action), each such additional Person will become a party to, and will be bound by all
the terms of, this Agreement.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES (BUT WITH REFERENCE TO SECTION 5-1401 OF
THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, WHICH BY ITS TERMS APPLIES TO THIS AGREEMENT).
EACH PARTY HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS NO RIGHT TO IMMUNITY FROM THE SERVICE OF
PROCESS OR JURISDICTION OR ANY XXXX-
-38-
CIAL PROCEEDINGS OF ANY COMPETENT COURT OR FROM EXECUTION OF ANY JUDGMENT OR FROM THE
EXECUTION OR ENFORCEMENT THEREIN OF ANY ARBITRATION DECISION IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION,
PROCEEDING OR ANY OTHER MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY PARTY IS OR BECOMES ENTITLED TO
ANY SUCH IMMUNITY WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OR JURISDICTION OR ANY JUDICIAL
PROCEEDINGS OF ANY COMPETENT COURT, AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IT DOES HEREBY AND WILL
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM ANY SUCH IMMUNITY WITH RESPECT TO ITS
OBLIGATIONS OR ANY OTHER MATTER UNDER OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES
DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY
CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.
EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH
RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY DOCUMENT DELIVERED PURSUANT HERETO BY THE MAILING OF A COPY
THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO ITS
RESPECTIVE ADDRESS SPECIFIED AT THE TIME FOR NOTICES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY OTHER ADDRESS
OF WHICH IT SHALL HAVE GIVEN WRITTEN OR ELECTRONIC NOTICE TO THE OTHER PARTIES. THE FOREGOING
SHALL NOT LIMIT THE ABILITY OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO BRING SUIT IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.
EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH
RESPECT TO ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.
The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the
parties hereto, the holders of Obligations and their respective successors and permitted assignees;
provided that the Trustee shall enforce this Agreement on behalf of all holders of
Obligations.
This Agreement may only be amended, waived or otherwise modified by written agreement with the
prior written consent of the Grantors, the Trustee, each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent
and the Third Priority Collateral Agent subject to the provisions of Article IX of the Indenture
and the requirements of any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement; provided,
however, that this Agreement may be supplemented by Joinder Agreements duly executed by the
Third Priority Collateral Agent, the Collateral Control Agent, the Trustee and each Grantor
directly affected thereby and by updates or supplements to any Schedules, Attachments or Annexes
hereto delivered in accordance with this Agreement.
17. Foreign Pledge Agreements.
-39-
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Notes Document
or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, in the event that any Collateral is also
pledged to the Third Priority Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations by any Grantor pursuant to
any security, pledge or similar agreement governed by foreign law (a “Foreign Pledge Agreement”)
and the provisions of such Foreign Pledge Agreement conflict with the provisions of this Agreement,
the applicable Grantor shall comply with the provisions of such Foreign Pledge Agreement and shall
not be deemed to have breached any representation or covenant contained herein or in any other
Notes Document or any Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement as a result thereof.
(b) If Supporting Assets with respect to the Dutch VFLN Receivables or the UK Note are
transferred at a time when (x) the fair market value of such Supporting Assets is less than (y) the
Carrying Value thereof as of the Issue Date (the difference between such amounts beings the
“Adjustment Amount”); the Company shall be entitled, following consultation with the
Trustee, to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Dutch VFLN Receivables or the UK Note,
as applicable, by the Adjustment Amount; provided that such transfer complies with the
applicable requirements of the Indenture and each then extant Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement.
18. Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
On or after the Issue Date, the Company may from time to time designate additional obligations
as Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness by delivering to the Third Priority Collateral Agent, the
Trustee and each Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent (a) a certificate signed by the chief
financial officer of the Company (i) identifying the obligations so designated and the aggregate
principal amount or face amount thereof, stating that such obligations are designated as “Pari
Passu Third Lien Indebtedness” for purposes hereof, (ii) representing that such designation
complies with the terms of the Indenture and each then extant Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness
Agreement, (iii) specifying the name and address of the Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Agent
for such obligations (if other than the Trustee) and (iv) stating that the Grantors have complied
with their obligations under Sections 11 and 12; (b) except in the case of
Additional Notes, a fully executed Pari Passu Third Lien Indebtedness Joinder Agreement; and (c) an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the designation of such obligations as “Pari Passu Third Lien
Indebtedness” does not violate the terms of the Indenture and each then extant Pari Passu Third
Lien Indebtedness Agreement (upon which the Third Priority Collateral Agent and the Trustee may
conclusively and exclusively rely).
19. Intercreditor Matters.
By accepting the benefits of this Agreement, the other Security Documents and any Pari Passu
Third Lien Indebtedness Agreement, as applicable, each Secured Party agrees that it is bound by the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreement applicable to such Secured Party. Each of the Secured Parties
acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding the date, time or creation of any Liens securing any
of the Obligations under the Security Agreement or the Security Documents, the Obligations shall be
equally and ratably secured by the Liens of the Security Agreement and the Security Documents and
all Liens securing any of the Obligations (and any proceeds received from the enforcement of any
such Liens) shall be for the equal and ratable benefit of all Secured Parties shall be applied as
provided in Section 13(f). Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereunder
and of the Security Documents, hereby agrees for the benefit of the other Secured Parties that, to
the extent any additional or substitute collateral for any of the Obligations is delivered by a
Grantor to or for the benefit of any Secured Party, such collateral shall be subject to the
provisions of this Section 19. Each of the Secured Parties hereby agrees not to challenge
or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any Security Document (in each case
as a whole or any term or provision contained therein) or the validity of any Lien or financing
statement in favor of the Third Priority Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as
provided in the Secu-
-40-
rity Agreement and the other Security Documents, or the relative priority of any such Lien.
Subject to the Third Priority Collateral Agent’s rights under Section 15, the Required
Secured Parties may direct the Third Priority Collateral Agent in exercising any remedy available
to the Third Priority Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any Security Document. In the
absence of any such instruction, the Third Priority Collateral Agent may (but shall be under no
obligation to) exercise such rights and remedies in any manner that complies with Section
15.
