Section 2.3 Perfection of Security Interests.
(a) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file a financing statement or
financing statements, instrument or other applicable document, without the signature of such
Grantor, and naming such Grantor as debtor and the Collateral Agent as Secured Party (collectively,
the “Financing Statements”) describing the Collateral in any and all jurisdictions where, and with
any and all governmental authorities with whom, the Collateral Agent reasonably deems such filing
to be necessary or appropriate including, without limitation, the jurisdiction of the debtor’s
location for purposes of the Code, the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United
States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any country). Each
Grantor will reimburse the Collateral Agent for any and all costs, charges and expenses (including
fees of counsel) incurred in connection with such filings. For purposes of this Section 2.3(a),
the Financing Statements shall be deemed to include any amendment, modification, assignment,
continuation statement or other similar instrument consistent with the rights granted to the
Secured Party under the Transaction Documents.
(b) Each Grantor shall have possession of the Collateral of such Grantor, except as expressly
otherwise provided in this Pledge Agreement or where the Collateral Agent chooses to perfect its
security interest by possession in addition to the filing of a Financing Statement. Where
Collateral is in the possession of a third party, the applicable Grantor will join with the
Collateral Agent in notifying the third party of the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein
and, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an
acknowledgement from the third party that it is holding the Collateral for the benefit of the
Secured Party.
With respect to any Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Security Entitlements, Commodity
Accounts, Commodity Contracts and electronic Chattel Paper included
15
in the Collateral, each Grantor shall ensure that the Collateral Agent has Control thereof,
subject to the provisions of Section 1.6(c) of Amendment No. 2. With respect to any Securities
Accounts or Securities Entitlements, such Control shall be accomplished by the Grantor causing the
Securities Intermediary (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the Code) maintaining such
Securities Account or Security Entitlement to enter into an agreement substantially in the form of
Annex III hereto (or such other agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent) pursuant to which the applicable Securities Intermediary shall agree to comply
with the Collateral Agent’s Entitlement Orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the Code)
without further consent by such Grantor. With respect to any Deposit Account, each Grantor shall
cause the depositary institution maintaining such account to enter into an agreement substantially
in the form of Annex IV hereto (or such other agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent), pursuant to which the applicable Bank (as defined in Section
9-102(a)(8) of the Code) shall agree to comply with the Collateral Agent’s instructions with
respect to disposition of funds in the Deposit Account without further consent by such Grantor.
With respect to any Commodity Accounts or Commodity Contracts each Grantor shall cause Control to
be established in favor of the Collateral Agent in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Collateral
Agent. With respect to any uncertificated Security included in the Collateral (other than any
uncertificated Securities credited to a Securities Account), each Grantor shall cause the issuer of
such uncertificated Security to either (i) register the Collateral Agent as the registered owner
thereof on the books and records of the issuer or (ii) execute an agreement in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which such issuer agrees to comply
with the Collateral Agent’s instructions with respect to such uncertificated Security without
further consent by such Grantor. With respect to any Letter of Credit Rights included in the
Collateral (other than any Letter of Credit Rights constituting a supporting obligation for a
receivable in which the Collateral Agent has a valid and perfected security interest), Grantor
shall ensure that Collateral Agent has Control thereof by obtaining the written consent of each
issuer of each related letter of credit to the assignment of the proceeds of such letter of credit
to the Collateral Agent.
(c) The Grantors will not create any Chattel Paper that would constitute Collateral without a
legend on such Chattel Paper reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent indicating that the
Collateral Agent has a secured interest in such Chattel Paper.
(d) Each Grantor shall, upon such Grantor’s acquiring, or otherwise becoming entitled to the
benefits of, any Copyright Collateral, Patent Collateral, Trademark Collateral (or associated
goodwill) or other Intellectual Property or upon or prior to such Grantor’s filing, either directly
or through any agent, licensee or other designee, of any application with any governmental
authority for any Copyright Collateral, Patent Collateral, Trademark Collateral, or other
Intellectual Property, in each case after the date hereof, execute and deliver such contracts,
agreements and other instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, subject to any
other applicable provision of this Pledge Agreement, to evidence, validate, perfect and establish
the priority of the security interest granted by this Pledge Agreement except with respect to
Permitted Liens in such and any related Intellectual Property.
(e) The Grantors shall deliver and pledge to the Collateral Agent any and all certificates
representing the Pledged Stock, accompanied by undated stock powers duly executed in blank.
16
(f) Each Grantor shall upon the acquisition after the date hereof by such Grantor of any Stock
Collateral, promptly either (x) transfer and deliver to the Collateral Agent all such Stock
Collateral (together with the certificates representing such Stock Collateral securities duly
endorsed in blank or accompanied by undated stock powers duly executed in blank) or (y) take such
other action as the Collateral Agent shall deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to perfect, and
establish the priority of, the security interest granted by this Pledge Agreement in such Stock
Collateral.
(g) Each Grantor shall (i) as soon as practicable (and in any event within 15 days) after the
date hereof with respect to any Xtrac Laser Equipment within the Additional Xtrac Collateral as of
the date hereof, and (ii) as soon as practicable (and in any event within 15 days) after the
acquisition of any new Xtrac Laser Equipment within the Additional Xtrac Collateral (or any Xtrac
Laser Equipment becoming Additional Available Xtrac Collateral), file a UCC-1 Financing Statement
for each Xtrac Obligor (in the state or jurisdiction of residence for such Xtrac Obligor) providing
notice that the Xtrac Laser Equipment remain the property of such Grantor and subject to a lien in
favor of the Collateral Agent hereunder.
Section 2.4 Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling and to the extent
necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights, remedies, powers and privileges
under Article 5 at such time or times as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to
exercise such rights, remedies, powers and privileges, and for no other purpose, each Grantor
hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, nonexclusive
license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use,
assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property of such Grantor, together with
reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to
all computer programs used for the compilation or printout of such items. This license shall be
exercisable only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and shall
terminate upon full and final payment, performance or other satisfaction of the Obligations.
Section 2.5 Special Provisions Relating to Stock Collateral.
(a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantors shall
have the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the
Stock Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms of any Transaction Document;
provided, that the Grantors agree that they will not vote the Stock Collateral in any manner that
is inconsistent with the terms of any Transaction Document.
(b) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantors shall
be entitled to receive and retain any dividends on the Stock Collateral paid in cash.
(c) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the
Collateral Agent exercises any available right to declare any Obligation due and payable or seeks
or pursues any other right, remedy, power or privilege available to it under applicable law or this
Pledge Agreement, all dividends and other distributions on the Stock Collateral shall be paid
directly to the Collateral Agent and retained by it in a segregated account as part of the Stock
Collateral, subject to the terms of this Pledge Agreement, and if the
17
Collateral Agent shall so request, each Grantor agrees to execute and deliver to the
Collateral Agent appropriate additional dividend, distribution and other orders and instruments to
that end; provided, that if such Event of Default is cured or waived in the manner as set forth in
the Notes, any such dividend or distribution paid to the Collateral Agent prior to such cure or
waiver shall, upon request of the applicable Grantor (except to the extent applied to the
Obligations), be returned by the Collateral Agent to such Grantor.

or greater than the security interests granted pursuant to this Pledge Agreement; or
(i) cause or permit the sale, distribution or other transfer by any Grantor of any material
assets (other than any Xtrac Assets).

Section 5.1 Event of Default. An “Event of Default” shall exist hereunder if an event
of default shall occur under the Notes.
Section 5.2 Powers of Attorney.
(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent (and any officer or agent of
the Collateral Agent) as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution for and
in the name of the Collateral Agent or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Collateral Agent,
effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(i) to receive, endorse the name of such Grantor upon and deliver any notes,
acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment that may come into
the possession of the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral;
(ii) to demand, collect and receive payment in respect of the Collateral and to apply
any such payments directly to the payment of the Obligations in accordance with Section 5.5
hereof;
23
(iii) to receive and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral;
(iv) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in
equity in any court of competent jurisdiction, to collect or otherwise realize on all or any
part of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect thereof;
(v) to sign the name of such Grantor on any invoice or xxxx of lading relating to any
of the Collateral;
(vi) to send verification of any Accounts to any obligors (such obligors being
hereinafter referred to as the “Account Debtors”) or customer;
(vii) to notify any Account Debtor or other obligor of the Grantor with respect to any
Collateral to make payment to the Collateral Agent;
(viii) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or
proceedings relating or pertaining to all or any of the Collateral;
(ix) to take any action for purposes of carrying out of the terms of this Pledge
Agreement;
(x) to enforce all of such Grantor’s rights and powers under and pursuant to any and
all agreements with respect to the Collateral; and
(xi) generally, to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to
or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things
necessary to carry out this Pledge Agreement, as fully and completely as though the
Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided,
however, nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the
Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or
sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim
or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the
moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby; and,
provided further, that Collateral Agent shall in all cases act in material compliance with
all applicable laws. It is understood and agreed that the power of attorney granted to the
Collateral Agent for the purposes set forth above in this Section 5.2 is coupled with an
interest and is irrevocable, and such Grantor hereby ratifies all actions taken by its
attorney-in-fact by virtue hereof. The provisions of this Section 5.2 shall in no event
relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations hereunder or under any of the other
Transaction Documents with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or impose any
obligation on the Collateral Agent to proceed in any particular manner with respect to the
Collateral or any part thereof, or in any way limit the exercise by the Collateral Agent of
any other or further right which it may have on the date of this Pledge Agreement or
hereafter, whether hereunder, under any of the other Transaction Documents, by law or
otherwise.
24
(b) Beyond the duty of the Collateral Agent to exercise reasonable care in the custody of any
Collateral in its possession, the Collateral Agent shall not, under any circumstance or in any
event whatsoever, have any liability for any part of the Collateral, nor shall the Collateral Agent
have any liability for any error or omission or delivery of any kind incurred in the good faith
settlement, collection or payment of any of the Collateral or any monies received in payment
therefor or for any damages resulting therefrom, nor shall this Pledge Agreement impose upon the
Collateral Agent any obligation to perform any obligation with respect to the Collateral. The costs
of collection, notification and enforcement, including but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’
fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, shall be borne solely by the Grantors whether the same
are incurred by the Grantors or the Collateral Agent. Each Grantor agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold the Collateral Agent harmless from and against any and all other claims, demands, losses,
judgments and liabilities (including, but not limited to, liabilities for penalties) of any nature,
and to reimburse the Collateral Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses, including but not
limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, arising from this Pledge Agreement or the
exercise of any right or remedy granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder other than those incurred
solely as a result of the gross negligence and willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent.
Section 5.3 Collections. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, in its name or in the name of any
Grantor, or otherwise, (a) demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any time
payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for, or make any compromise or settlement deemed
desirable with respect to any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so, or (b)
extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the term of,
or release, any of the Collateral, without thereby incurring responsibility to, or discharging or
otherwise affecting any liability of, such Grantors, other than to discharge such Grantors in so
doing with respect to liabilities of such Grantor to the extent that the liabilities are paid or
repaid. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of
Accounts, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two
Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor
to the Collateral Agent if required, in a collateral account maintained under the sole dominion and
control of the Collateral Agent, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in
trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such
Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of such Accounts shall be accompanied by a report
identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. In
addition to the foregoing rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to
payments of Accounts, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any
money, checks, notes, bills, drafts, or commercial paper received by any Grantor and included in
the Collateral shall be held in trust for the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Party and
any other secured creditors having rights thereto senior to the Secured Party and shall be promptly
turned over to the Collateral Agent or any other secured creditors having rights thereto senior to
the Secured Party as its interest shall appear. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may make such payments and take such actions as the
Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to protect its security interest in the
Collateral or the value thereof, and the Collateral Agent is hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
authorized (without limiting the general nature of the authority hereinabove conferred) to pay,
purchase, contest or compromise
25
any liens which in the judgment of the Collateral Agent appear to be equal to, prior to or
superior to its security interest in the Collateral and any liens not expressly permitted by this
Pledge Agreement.
Section 5.4 Possession; Sale of Collateral.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral
Agent may, subject to the rights of any other secured creditors having rights senior to those of
the Secured Party: (i) require any Grantor to assemble the tangible assets that comprise part of
the Collateral and make them available to the Collateral Agent at any place or places reasonably
designated by the Collateral Agent; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, with or without
notice or demand for performance and without liability for trespass, enter any premises where the
Collateral may be located and peaceably take possession of the same, and may demand and receive
such possession from any person who has possession thereof, and may take such measures as it may
deem necessary or proper for the care or protection thereof (including, but not limited to, the
right to remove all or any portion of the Collateral); and (iii) with or without taking such
possession may sell or cause to be sold, in one or more sales or parcels, for cash, on credit or
for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk, all or any portion of the Collateral,
at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or any securities exchange, without demand of
performance or notice of intention to sell or of time or place of sale, except 10 Business Days’
written notice to such Grantor of the time and place of such sale or sales (and such other notices
as may be required by applicable statute, if any, and which cannot be waived), which each Grantor
hereby expressly acknowledges is commercially reasonable. In the event of any sale, license or
other disposition of any of the Trademark Collateral, the goodwill connected with and symbolized by
the Trademark Collateral subject to such disposition shall be included, and the Grantors shall
supply to the Collateral Agent or its designee, for inclusion in such sale, assignment or other
disposition, all Intellectual Property relating to such Trademark Collateral. The Collateral Agent
shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare any Collateral for sale. The Collateral
may be sold or disposed of for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent
shall deem appropriate. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold
absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives
(to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal that such Grantor now
has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or
hereafter enacted. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in
one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and
absolute discretion) determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any
Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such
Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn
any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at
the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time
and place to which the same was so adjourned. The Collateral Agent may comply with any applicable
state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance
will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any disposition of the
Collateral. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future
delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is
paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof. The Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability for
the
26
failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so
and, in case of any such failure, shall not be under any obligation to take any action with respect
thereto; provided, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. If any Collateral is sold
upon credit, the Grantors will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser,
received by the Collateral Agent and applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 5.5 In
the event the purchasers fail to pay for the Collateral, the Collateral Agent may resell the
Collateral. At any public sale made pursuant to this Section 5.4, the Collateral Agent may bid for
or purchase, free from any right of redemption, stay or appraisal and all rights of marshalling,
the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise on the part of any Grantor
(all said rights being also hereby waived and released by each Grantor to the fullest extent
permitted by law) or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by
using any claim then due and payable to the Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the
purchase price, and the Collateral Agent may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain
and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes
hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a
sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement,
and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject
thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an
agreement, all Events of Default shall have been remedied and any obligations to the Secured Party
shall have been paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred
upon them, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose
this Pledge Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or
decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a
court-appointed receiver. In any such action, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the
appointment of a receiver without notice, to peaceably take possession of all or any portion of the
Collateral and to exercise such powers as the court shall confer upon the receiver. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to apply, without notice to any Grantor, any cash or cash items constituting Collateral in
its possession to payment of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5
hereof.
(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall, in
addition to exercising any and all rights and remedies afforded to it hereunder, have all the
rights and remedies of a secured party under all applicable provisions of law, including but not
limited to, the Code.
(c) Each Grantor agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Pledge
Agreement, such Grantor shall remain liable under each contract or other agreement giving rise to
Accounts and General Intangibles and all other contracts or agreements constituting part of the
Collateral and the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or liability in respect thereof.
(d) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the
Collateral Agent’s request, but subject to the rights of any other secured creditors having rights
senior to those of the Secured Party, each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent all
original and other Documents evidencing and relating to the sale and delivery of Inventory or
Accounts, including but not limited to, all original orders, invoices and shipping
27
receipts. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor
shall also furnish to the Collateral Agent, promptly upon the request of the Collateral Agent, such
reports, reconciliations and aging balances regarding Accounts as the Collateral Agent may request
from time to time.
Section 5.5 Application of Proceeds. Unless the Collateral Agent otherwise directs,
the proceeds of any sale of Collateral pursuant to this Pledge Agreement or otherwise, as well as
any Collateral consisting of cash, shall be applied after receipt by the Collateral Agent as
follows, subject to the rights of any other secured creditor having rights senior to those of the
Secured Party:
First, to the payment of all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of the Collateral
Agent and its agents, representatives and attorneys incurred in connection with such sale or
with the retaking, holding, handling, preparing for sale (or other disposition) of the
Collateral or otherwise in connection with the Notes, this Pledge Agreement or any of the
Obligations, including but not limited to, the reasonable fees and expenses of the
Collateral Agent’s agents and attorneys’ and court costs (whether at trial, appellate or
administrative levels), if any, incurred by the Collateral Agent in so doing;
Second, to the payment of the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest and
fees on the Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine;
Third, to pay all other amounts payable by the Grantors under the Notes, the
Transaction Documents and any other Obligations; and
Fourth, to the Grantors or to such other person as a court may direct.
Section 5.6 Authority of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall have and be
entitled to exercise all such powers hereunder as are specifically delegated to the Collateral
Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The
Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees and
shall be entitled to retain counsel and to act in reliance upon the advice of such counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder.
Section 5.7 Certain Waivers; the Grantor Not Discharged. Each Grantor expressly and
irrevocably waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) presentment, demand of payment and
protest of nonpayment in respect of its Obligations under this Pledge Agreement.
Section 5.8 Transfer of Security Interest. The Collateral Agent may transfer to any
other person all or any part of the liens and security interests granted hereby, and all or any
part of the Collateral which may be in the Collateral Agent’s possession after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default or to a successor Collateral Agent at any time. Upon
such transfer, the transferee shall be vested with all the rights and powers of the Collateral
Agent hereunder with respect to such of the Collateral as is so transferred, but, with respect to
any of the Collateral not so transferred, the Collateral Agent shall retain all of its rights and
powers (whether given to it in this Pledge Agreement, or otherwise). The Collateral Agent may, at
any time, assign its rights as the Collateral Agent hereunder to any person, in the Collateral
28
Agent’s discretion, and upon notice to the Grantor, but without any requirement for consent or
approval by or from the Grantor, and any such assignment shall be valid and binding upon the
Grantor, as fully as it had expressly approved the same.

Section 6.1 Further Assurances. Each Grantor agrees, at its expense, to do such
further things, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further
instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time
reasonably request for the better assuming and preserving of the security interests and the rights
and remedies created hereby, including but not limited to, the execution and delivery of such
additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments, the payment of any fees and taxes
required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement, the granting of
the security interests created hereby and the execution, filing and recordation of any financing
statements (including fixture filings) or other documents as the Collateral Agent may deem
reasonably necessary for the perfection of the security interests granted hereunder. If any amount
payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any
promissory note or other Instrument, such note or Instrument shall be immediately pledged and
delivered to the Collateral Agent, duly endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent, subject to the rights of any other secured creditors having rights senior to the
Collateral Agent. If at any time any Grantor shall take and perfect a security interest in any
property to secure payment and performance of an Account included in the Collateral, such Grantor,
upon the request of the Collateral Agent, shall promptly assign such security interest to the
Collateral Agent, subject to the rights of any other secured creditors having rights senior to the
Secured Party. Each Grantor agrees to notify the Collateral Agent in writing at least 30 days prior
to any change (a) in its corporate name, (b) in its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization,
(c) in the location of its chief executive office, (d) in its chief place of business, or (e) in
the office or offices where it keeps its records relating to the Collateral. In addition to the
foregoing, promptly following any change in the information set forth in the most recent Perfection
Certificate with respect to any Grantor or the Collateral pledged by such Grantor, the applicable
Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a supplement to the Perfection Certificate such that
the information contained in the Perfection Certificate with respect to such Grantor, as
supplemented thereby will, be true, complete and accurate. Each Grantor agrees that, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it shall upon request of the
Collateral Agent, take any and all actions, to the extent permitted by applicable law, at its own
expense, to obtain the approval of any Governmental Entity for any action or transaction
contemplated by this Pledge Agreement which is then required by law, and specifically, without
limitation, upon request of the Collateral Agent, to prepare, sign and file with any Governmental
Entity such Grantor’s portion of any application or applications for consent to the assignment of
licenses held by such Grantor, or for consent to the possession and sale of any of the Collateral
by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Party. Each Grantor further agrees that it
shall at all times, at its own expense and cost, keep accurate and complete records with respect to
the Collateral, including but not limited to, a record of all payments and proceeds received in
connection therewith or as a result of the sale thereof and of all credits granted, and agrees that
the Collateral Agent or its representatives shall have the right at any reasonable time and from
time to time to call at such Grantor’s place or places of business to inspect the Collateral and to
29
examine or cause to be examined all of the books, records, journals and other data relating to
the Collateral and to make extracts therefrom or copies thereof as are reasonably requested.
Section 6.2 Effectiveness. This Pledge Agreement shall take effect with respect to
each Grantor immediately upon execution by such Grantor.
Section 6.3 Indemnity; Reimbursement of the Collateral Agent; Deficiency. In
connection with the Collateral, this Pledge Agreement and the administration and enforcement or
exercise of any right or remedy granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, each Grantor agrees,
subject to the limitations set forth hereafter (a) to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Collateral Agent from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities
(including but not limited to, liabilities for penalties) of whatever nature, relating thereto or
resulting therefrom, and (b) to reimburse the Collateral Agent for all reasonable costs and
expenses, including but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys,
relating thereto or resulting therefrom. The foregoing indemnity agreement includes all reasonable
costs incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with any litigation relating to the Collateral
whether or not the Collateral Agent shall be a party to such litigation, including but not limited
to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys for the Collateral Agent, and any
out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Collateral Agent in appearing as a witness or in otherwise
complying with legal process served upon them. The obligations in this Section 6.3 do not apply to
any claims for indemnity, defense, or reimbursement that arise from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Collateral Agent. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable, in the
absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part or Collateral Agent’s breach of its
obligations hereunder, for any matter or thing in connection with this Pledge Agreement other than
to account for moneys actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof and each Grantor
hereby releases the Collateral Agent from any and all claims, causes of action and demands at any
time arising out of or with respect to this Pledge Agreement or the Collateral except for
Collateral Agent’s breach of its obligations hereunder. All indemnities contained in this Section
6.3 and elsewhere in this Pledge Agreement shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of
this Pledge Agreement. After application of the proceeds by the Collateral Agent pursuant to
Section 5.5 hereof, the Grantors shall remain liable to the Collateral Agent for any deficiency.
Section 6.4 Continuing Lien. It is the intent of the parties hereto that (a) this
Pledge Agreement shall constitute a continuing agreement as to any and all future, as well as
existing transactions, between any Grantor and the Collateral Agent under or in connection with the
Notes or otherwise relating to any other Obligation, and (b) the security interest provided for
herein shall attach to after-acquired as well as existing Collateral.
Section 6.5 Termination. Upon payment, performance or other satisfaction in full of
the Notes and all other Obligations and all other amounts due in connection therewith and
termination of all commitments relating thereto, the Collateral Agent shall reassign, redeliver and
release (or cause to be so reassigned, redelivered and released), without recourse upon or warranty
by the Collateral Agent, and at the sole expense of the Grantors, to the Grantors, against receipt
therefor, such of the Collateral (if any) as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied by the
Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof and not theretofore reassigned, redelivered and
released to the Grantors, together with appropriate instruments of reassignment
30
and release. Secured Party and Collateral Agent hereby expressly agree that the Grantors may,
from time to time in the ordinary course of business, pledge Collateral such that it becomes CIT
Encumbered Collateral (and therefore no longer Collateral hereunder) pursuant to the CIT Agreement
or Clutterbuck Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement, dated on or about the date
hereof, by and among the Secured Party, the Borrower and the Clutterbuck Funds LLC), and that
Secured Party and Collateral Agent will execute such partial releases and other documents as may be
reasonably requested to evidence the release of such Collateral or the subordination of the liens
of Secured Party and Collateral Agent, as applicable.
Section 6.6 Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries
required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and

ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH

AGREE NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY GRANTOR, THE SECURED PARTY OR

PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR

ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW. EACH GRANTOR, THE SECURED PARTY AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY WAIVE
ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
Section 6.9 Additional Grantors. Each Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to
become a party to this Agreement pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall become
32
a Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of
an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex I hereto.
Section 6.10 Release of Subsidiary Grantor in Certain Circumstances. Any Grantor
(other than the Borrower) shall be released from its obligations hereunder and all Liens created
hereunder in the Collateral owned by such Grantor, shall be released, upon the consummation of any
transaction permitted by the Purchase Agreement and the Notes as a result of which such Grantor
ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower.
Section 6.11 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Pledge Agreement may be waived
or amended except in a written instrument signed by the Grantor to which such provision relates,
the Secured Party and the Collateral Agent. No waiver of any default with respect to any
provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in
the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or
requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder
in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. The rights and remedies of the Collateral
Agent hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which it would otherwise
have. No notice to or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle such Grantor to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and
provisions of this Pledge Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the

substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this
Pledge Agreement.

the Notes, the Guaranty Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, contain the entire

counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and
shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other
party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that
any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or email attachment, such signature shall
create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or email-attached signature page were
an original thereof.
Section 6.15 Headings. The headings of this Pledge Agreement are for convenience of
reference only, are not part of this Agreement and do not affect its interpretation.
