If one holder of the Notes obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary or by offset or otherwise, but not including any Non-Pro Rata Payments) of principal, interest or other amount with respect to the Notes in excess of such holder’s pro rata share of such payments obtained by all holders of the Notes, then the holder receiving such payment in excess of its pro rata share shall return to the Agent, for distribution to each of the other holders, an amount sufficient to cause all holders of the Notes to receive their respective pro rata shares of any payment of principal, interest or other amounts with respect to the Notes.

The Borrower shall not make, and no holder of Fourth Option Notes shall accept, any Fourth Option Notes Pro Rata Payment except as shall be shared ratably between the holders of the Fourth Option Notes so as to maintain as near as possible the amount of the indebtedness owing under the Fourth Option Notes pro rata according to the holders’ respective proportionate interest in the amount of Notes Obligations owed as of the date immediately prior to such payment or payments. If one holder of the Fourth Option Notes obtains any Fourth Option Notes Pro Rata Payment (whether voluntary, involuntary or by offset or otherwise) of principal, interest or other amount with respect to the Fourth Option Notes in excess of such holder’s pro rata share of such payments obtained by all holders of the Fourth Option Notes, then the holder receiving such payment in excess of its pro rata share shall return to the Agent, for distribution to each of the other holders, an amount sufficient to cause all holders of the Fourth Option Notes to receive their respective pro rata shares of such payment.

(h) MOIC. Subject to the final sentence of this Section 2(h), payment of any Fourth Option Note on the Maturity Date (or due to an acceleration (whether declared or automatic)) shall be accompanied by an additional amount (such amount, the “MOIC Deficiency Amount”), if any, sufficient to achieve a 1.13:1.00 multiple of invested capital since the Original Issue Date (the “MOIC”) on the aggregate Principal Amount of the Fourth Option Notes being paid. The MOIC Deficiency Amount in connection with any payment of Fourth Option Notes shall be calculated based on (i) the sum of all fees, original issue discount, interest, premiums, principal and other payments received in cash by the applicable Holders in respect of the Fourth Option Notes since the Original Issue Date (excluding any reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs or expenses reimbursed and any indemnification payments made to the applicable Holders in respect of the Fourth Option Notes), as the numerator, and (ii) the aggregate Principal Amount of the Fourth Option Notes on the Original Issue Date, as the denominator.

(a) Borrower May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. Subject to the provisions of Section 8(b), the Borrower shall not consolidate with, merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to another Person, unless:

(i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Borrower”), if not the Borrower, shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Borrower (if not the Borrower) shall expressly assume all of the obligations of the Borrower under the Notes and the other Note Documents; and

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

For purposes of this Section 8(a), the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Borrower to another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Borrower instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower to another Person.

(b) Successor Borrower to Be Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the Successor Borrower, by supplements or amendments to this Note and the other Note Documents, executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent, the Holder Representative and the holders of Notes, as applicable, satisfactory in form to the Collateral Agent, the Holder Representative (as to their respective rights, duties and obligations, as applicable) and the holders of Notes, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and any accrued and unpaid interest on all of the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Note and the other Note Documents to be performed by the Borrower, such Successor Borrower (if not the Borrower) shall succeed to and, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Borrower’s properties and assets, shall be substituted for the Borrower, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part. Such Successor Borrower thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Borrower any or all of the Notes issuable under the Purchase Agreement which theretofore shall not have been signed and delivered by the Borrower.

All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Purchase Agreement as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution of the Purchase Agreement. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), upon compliance with this Section 8 the Person named as the “Borrower” in the first paragraph of this Note (or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Section 8) may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under the Purchase Agreement and the Notes.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

(c) Opinion of Counsel to Be Given to Holder Representative. No such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease shall be effective unless the Holder Representative shall have received an opinion of counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption complies with the provisions of this Section 8.

9. Guarantees.

(a) Subject to this Section 9 each of the Guarantors hereby, as a primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to the Holder and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Note or the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, this Note and such other Note Obligations will be promptly paid in full in cash when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on this Note, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Borrower to the Holder hereunder will be promptly paid in full in cash or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of this Note or any of such other obligations (including Note Obligations), that same will be promptly paid in full in cash when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

(b) Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(c) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Note, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any amendment, waiver or consent by the Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Borrower or any other Guarantor, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim based on diligence, promptness, presentment, requirements for any demand or notice hereunder including any of the following: (i) any demand for payment or performance and protest and notice of protest; (ii) any notice of acceptance; (iii) any presentment, demand, protest or further notice or other requirements of any kind with respect to any Note Obligation (including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon) becoming immediately due and payable; and (iv) any other notice in respect of any Note Obligation or any part thereof, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any Guarantor. Each Guarantor further unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to (x) enforce or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation or any right of reimbursement or contribution or similar right against the Borrower or any Guarantor or (y) assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim it may have against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or set off any of its obligations to the Borrower or any other Guarantor against obligations of such Guarantor to the Borrower or such other Guarantor. No obligation of any Guarantor hereunder shall be discharged other than by complete performance. Each Guarantor further waives any right such Guarantor may have under any applicable requirement of law to require the Collateral Agent or the Holder to seek recourse first against the Borrower or any other Person as a condition precedent to enforcing such Guarantor’s liability and obligations under this Section 9.

(d) If the Holder is required by any court or otherwise to return any amount paid by the Borrower or any Guarantor, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

(e) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holder in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full in cash of all obligations (including the Note Obligations) guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holder and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 12(b) for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Section 12(b), such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this guarantee.

(f) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of the Note, the Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of applicable Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holder and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Section 9, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Note and that its Guarantee, and the waivers set forth herein, are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

(g) To evidence a guarantee set forth in Section 9(a), this Note will be executed on behalf of each Guarantor by one of its officers or authorized representatives and, with respect to any Guarantors providing a Guarantee after the date hereof, a Joinder Agreement will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its officers. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its guarantee set forth in Section 9(a) will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such guarantee.

(h) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(i), a Guarantor may not, directly or indirectly, (1) consolidate with or merge with or into, or (2) sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), any other Person, other than the Borrower or another Guarantor, unless.

(i) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby; and

(ii) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower or another Guarantor) is an entity organized under the laws of the United States and otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Majority Holders and expressly assumes, by executing and delivering supplements and amendments to this Note and the other Note Documents that are satisfactory in form to the Collateral Agent, the Holder Representative (as to their respective rights, duties and obligations, as applicable) and the Majority Holders, all of the obligations of that Guarantor under its Guaranty, this Note and all other appropriate Note Documents.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the successor Person of the Guaranty of such Guarantor and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Note and the other Note Documents to be performed by such Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Notes issuable under the Purchase Agreement which theretofore shall not have been signed and delivered by the Borrower; provided, however, that the Guaranty of such successor Person will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guaranty. All the Guaranties so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Purchase Agreement as the Guaranties theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Note and the other Note Documents as though all of such Guaranties had been issued at the date of the execution of the Purchase Agreement.

(i) The Guaranty of any Guarantor, and the Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral of such Guarantor, will be automatically released upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor following the Transfer of all of its assets to the Borrower or another Guarantor as permitted hereunder.

If the Guaranty of any Guarantor or all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor or the Capital Stock of any Guarantor are sold or disposed of in the manner described in this clause (i), and such Guarantor (or as the context may require, Collateral) is released, the Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent and the Holder Representative a certificate of a Responsible Officer stating and certifying the identity of the released Guarantor (any/or the applicable Collateral), the basis for release in reasonable detail and that such release complies with this Note and the other Note Documents. Upon delivery by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent and the Holder Representative of a certificate of a Responsible Officer and an opinion of counsel to the effect that the conditions precedent to this clause (i) have been met with respect to a Guarantor (or such Collateral) in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the other Note Documents, the Collateral Agent and Holder Representative will execute any documents reasonably requested that are necessary or advisable in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty or the applicable Note Documents. Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Guaranty as provided in this Section 9(i) will remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes and for the other obligations (including the Note Obligations) of any Guarantor under this Note and the other Note Documents as provided in this Section 9 notwithstanding the release of any other Guarantor.

(j) Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower, each other Guarantor and any other guarantor, maker or endorser of any Note Obligation or any part thereof, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any Note Obligation or any part thereof that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Holder shall not have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event the Holder, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any Guarantor, then the Holder shall be under no obligation to (a) undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (b) disclose any information that such Person, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (c) make any future disclosures of such information or any other information to any Guarantor.

10. Creation of Security Interest.

(a) Grant of Security Interest. To secure prompt payment of any and all of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, this Note and all other Note Obligations, and prompt performance by each Note Party of each of its covenants and duties under the Note Documents, each Note Party hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the Holder Representative and holders of Notes, a continuing security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all of such Note Party’s right, title and interest in or to any and all of the following assets and properties, whether now owned or at any time hereafter created or acquired by such Note Party or in which such Note Party now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest, and wherever located (collectively, the “Article 9 Collateral”):

(i) all accounts (including health-care-insurance receivables), cash and Cash Equivalents, chattel paper (including tangible and electronic chattel paper), commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, securities accounts, documents (including negotiable documents), equipment (including all accessions and additions thereto), general intangibles (including payment intangibles, Intellectual Property and Licenses), goods (including fixtures), instruments (including promissory notes), Inventory (including all goods held for sale or lease or to be furnished under a contract of service, and including returns and repossessions), investment property (including securities and securities entitlements), letter-of- credit rights, money, fixtures, all books, records, ledger cards, files, correspondence, computer programs, tapes, disks and related data processing software (owned by such Note Party or in which it has an interest) that at any time evidence or contain information relating to any Article 9 Collateral or as are otherwise necessary or helpful in the collection thereof or realization thereupon;

(ii) all real property interests (including leaseholds, mineral rights, timber, etc.); and

(iii) any and all cash proceeds or noncash proceeds and products of any of the foregoing, including insurance proceeds, and all supporting obligations and the security and guarantees therefor or for any right to payment.

Such Security Interest constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in the presently existing Article 9 Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in Article 9 Collateral acquired after the date hereof, in each case, subject to Permitted Liens. This Note is intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the Code. Neither the Holder Representative nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for and make no representation as to the existence, genuineness, value or protection of any Collateral, for the legality, effectiveness or sufficiency of any Note Collateral Document, or for the creation, perfection, priority, sufficiency or protection of any Liens securing the Notes. By its acceptance of the Notes, the Holder will be deemed to accept the terms of, agree to be bound by and authorize and direct each of the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to enter into and perform its respective obligations under, the Note Collateral Documents. Neither the Holder Representative nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for (A) perfecting, maintaining, monitoring, preserving or protecting the Liens granted under this Note, the Note Collateral Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) the determination, filing, re-filing, recording, re-recording or continuing of any document, financing statement, financing change statement, registration, mortgage, assignment, notice, instrument of further assurance or other instrument in any public office at any time or times or (C) providing, maintaining, monitoring or preserving insurance on or the payment of taxes with respect to the Collateral. The actions described in items (A) through (C) shall be the sole responsibility of the Note Parties, as applicable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Article 9 Collateral include: (A) any lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement to which a Note Party is a party or any of its rights or interests thereunder if and for so long as the grant of such Security Interest shall constitute or result in (I) the abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of any right, title or interest of such Note Party therein or (II) a breach or termination pursuant to the terms of, or a default under, any such lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to Sections 9406, 9407, 9408 or 9409 of the Code (or any successor provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable Law (including Debtor Relief Laws) or principles of equity); provided that the Article 9 Collateral shall include and such Security Interest shall attach immediately (x) at such time as the condition causing such abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability shall be remedied and to the extent severable, shall attach immediately to any portion of such lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement that does not result in any of the consequences specified in (I) or (II) above and (y) to any all Proceeds, products, accessions, rents and profits of or in respect of any of the foregoing such leases, licenses, contracts, property rights or agreements; (B) any intent-to use Trademark applications prior to the filing of a “Statement of Use”, “Amendment to Allege Use” or similar filing with regard thereto, to the extent and solely during the period in which the grant of a security interest therein may impair the validity or enforceability of any Trademark that may issue from such intent to use Trademark application under applicable Law or (C) vehicles that may only be perfected by notifications on certificates of title (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”).

(b) Authorization to File Financing Statements. Each Note Party hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent (but without obligation) for its benefit and the benefit of the Holder Representative and the holders of Notes at any time and from time to time to file, at such Note Party’s expense, in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements with respect to the Article 9 Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that (i) indicate the Article 9 Collateral as “all assets” whether now owned or hereafter acquired or “all personal property” whether now owned or hereafter acquired of such Note Party or words of similar effect as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail and (ii) contain the information required by Article 9 of the Code or the analogous legislation of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including whether such Note Party is an organization, the type of organization and, if required, any organizational identification number issued to such Note Party. Each Note Party agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon any reasonable request. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein or in any other Note Collateral Document, the Note Parties shall make all filings (including filings of continuation statements and amendments to financing statements that may be necessary to continue the effectiveness of such financing statements) necessary to maintain (at the sole cost and expense of the Note Parties) the security interest created by the Note Collateral Documents in the Collateral as a first priority perfected security interest to the extent perfection is required herein or by the Note Collateral Documents, and promptly provide evidence thereof to the Collateral Agent.

(c) No Obligation. The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any holder of Notes to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Note Party with respect to or arising out of the Article 9 Collateral.

(d) Intellectual Property Filings. The Collateral Agent is authorized (but without obligation) to file with the USPTO or the USCO (or any successor office) such documents as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest in United States Intellectual Property of each Note Party in which a security interest has been granted by such Note Party hereunder, with notice to such, and with or without the signature of any, Note Party, and naming any Note Party as debtor and the Collateral Agent as secured party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such filings shall be the responsibility of the applicable Note Party, and such Note Party agrees to furnish evidence of any such filings and recordings to the Collateral Agent.

(e) Duration of Security Interest; Release.

(i) The Collateral Agent’s Security Interest in the Article 9 Collateral shall continue until the payment in full in cash and the satisfaction of all Note Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations or other obligations that expressly survive termination), whereupon such Security Interest shall terminate and the Collateral Agent shall, at the Note Parties’ sole cost and expense, promptly execute such further documents and take such further actions as may be necessary to effect the release contemplated by this Section 10(e)(i).

(ii) Upon any Transfer by any Note Party of any Collateral that is permitted hereunder and under the other Note Documents (other than a Transfer to another Note Party), the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released and the Collateral Agent shall, at the Note Parties’ sole cost and expense, promptly execute such further documents and take such further actions as may be necessary to effect the release contemplated by this Section 10(e)(ii).

(f) Possession of Article 9 Collateral. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Note Parties shall remain in full possession, enjoyment and control of the Article 9 Collateral (except only as may be otherwise required by the Majority Holders for perfection or protection of the Collateral Agent’s Security Interest therein) and shall be entitled to manage, operate and use the same and each part thereof with all the rights and franchises appertaining thereto; provided, however, that the possession, enjoyment, control and use of the Article 9 Collateral shall at all times be subject to the observance and performance of the terms of this Note and the other Note Documents.

(g) Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Each Note Party shall from time to time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Holder Representative and the holders of Notes all Negotiable Collateral (having a value in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate) and other documents necessary or advisable to perfect and continue the perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Security Interest in the Article 9 Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Note Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Note Party acquires a Commercial Tort Claim (which could reasonably be expected to result in damages in excess of $100,000), such Note Party shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in a writing signed by such Note Party of the general details thereof and such Note Party shall promptly, but in no event more than three (3) Business Days after such notice, agree to an amendment to the definition of Article 9 Collateral or the Code filings to include such Commercial Tort Claim, such amendment to be in form and substance as required by the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders). If at any time any Note Party shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or any other Person the value of which is in excess of $100,000 to secure payment and performance of an Account, such Note Party shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and assign such security interest to the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the holders of Notes. Such assignment need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.

(h) Representations and Warranties. Each Note Party represents and warrants, as to itself and the other Note Parties, to the Holder Representative, the Collateral Agent and the Holder that:

(i) Subject to Permitted Liens, each Note Party has good and valid rights in and title (except as otherwise permitted by the Note Documents) to (or the power to transfer rights in) the Article 9 Collateral (except with respect to title to Intellectual Property owned by a third party as to which such Note Party has been granted a License) with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder, except for minor defects in title that do not materially interfere with its ability to conduct its business or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes and has full power and authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Note and the other Note Documents, without the consent or approval of any other Person, other than any consent or approval that has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

(ii) The Disclosure Letter has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information set forth therein is correct and complete in all material respects (except that the information therein with respect to the exact legal name of each Note Party is correct and complete in all respects) as of the date hereof.

To the extent a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the USPTO or USCO under the federal intellectual property laws, then no further or subsequent filing, re-filing, recording, rerecording, registration or re-registration is necessary (other than (x) such filings and actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of United States registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights filed, acquired or developed by any Note Party after the date hereof and (y) the UCC financing and continuation statements contemplated in Section 10(h)(ii)).

(iv) The Security Interest constitutes (A) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral securing the payment and performance in full of the Note Obligations and (B) subject to the filings described in Sections 9(h)(ii) and 10(h)(iii), a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the Code. The Security Interest is prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, subject to Permitted Liens.

No interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Note Party that constitutes Pledged Equity shall be represented by a certificate unless (i) the limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement expressly provides that such interests shall be a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Code of the applicable jurisdiction, (ii) such certificate bears a legend indicating such interest represented thereby is such a “security” and (iii) such certificate shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 11(b). Each Note Party further acknowledges and agrees that with respect to any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled on or after the date hereof by such Note Party and pledged hereunder that is not a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Code, such Note Party shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Code, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate, unless such election is made and such interest is thereafter represented by a certificate that is promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Sections 10(b)(i) and 10(b)(iii).

(e) Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) shall have given the applicable Note Party written notice of its intent to exercise such rights, (i) the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Holder Representative and the holders of Notes, shall have the right to hold the Pledged Securities in its own name as pledgee, the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent) or the name of the applicable Note Party, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent and each Note Party will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any written notices or other written communications received by it with respect to Pledged Equity registered in the name of such Note Party and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Equity for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Note and the other Note Documents, to the extent permitted by the documentation governing such Pledged Equity.

(i) The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Collateral Agent shall become the absolute owner of Pledged Equity consisting of any limited liability company interest or partnership interest pursuant hereto, neither this Note nor the other Note Documents shall be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Collateral Agent, any holder of Notes, any Note Party or any other Person and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty, obligation or responsibility with respect to the Pledged Equity other than to hold the same in accordance with this Note.

(ii) The Collateral Agent and the holders of Notes shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Note Parties solely as a result of the pledge effected hereby.

(f) Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest.

(i) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) shall have provided written notice to the applicable Note Party in accordance with Section 11(f)(iv) below that the rights of such Note Party under this Section 11(f) are being suspended:

(A) each Note Party shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Equity or any part thereof and each Note Party agrees that it shall exercise such rights in a manner not prohibited by the terms of this Note or the other Note Documents;

(B) the Collateral Agent shall promptly (after reasonable advance notice) execute and deliver (at the Note Parties’ sole cost and expense) to each Note Party, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Note Party, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments prepared by such Note Party as such Note Party may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Note Party to exercise the voting or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 11(f)(i)(A); and

(C) each Note Party shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of this Note, the other Note Documents and applicable Laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Equity or Pledged Debt, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Capital Stock of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Note Party, shall not be commingled by such Note Party with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the holders of Notes and shall be promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days or such longer period as the Majority Holders may agree in their reasonable discretion) delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Majority Holders). So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly deliver to each Note Party any Pledged Securities in its possession if requested to be delivered to the issuer thereof in connection with any exchange or redemption of such Pledged Securities permitted by this Note and the other Note Documents in accordance with this Section 11(f)(i)(C).

(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default after the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) shall have provided written notice to the applicable Note Party of the suspension of such Note Party’s rights under Section 11(f)(i)(C), then all rights of such Note Party to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Note Party is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph Section 11(f)(i)(C) shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the holders of Notes), which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions in respect of the Pledged Equity. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Note Party contrary to the provisions of this Section 11(f) shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the holders of Notes), shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Note Party and shall be promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days or such longer period as the Majority Holders may agree in their reasonable discretion) delivered to the Collateral Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (ii) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 11(c). After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Collateral Agent has received written notice from the Note Parties of such cure or waiver, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Note Party (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Note Party would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph Section 11(f)(i)(C) and that remain in such account, and such Note Party’s right to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities shall be automatically reinstated.

(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) shall have provided the applicable Note Party with written notice of the suspension of such Note Party’s rights under paragraph Section 11(f)(i)(A), then all rights of such Note Party to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 11(f)(i)(A), and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under Section 11(f)(i)(B), shall cease, and all such rights in respect of the Pledged Securities shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the holders of Notes), which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Collateral Agent has received written notice from the Note Parties of such cure or waiver, each Note Party shall immediately have the exclusive right to exercise the voting or consensual rights and powers that such Note Party would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of Section 11(f)(i)(A) until such time as such rights are again suspended pursuant to this Section 11(f), and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under Section 11(f)(i)(B) shall be immediately reinstated.

(iv) Any notice required to be given by the Collateral Agent to the Note Parties to suspend rights under Section 11(f) (A) shall be given in writing, (B) may be given with respect to one or more Note Parties at the same or different times and (C) may suspend the rights of the Note Parties under Section 11(f)(i)(A) or Section 11(f)(i)(C) in part without suspending all such rights (as specified by the Collateral Agent acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights to give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b) Remedies. If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body), then:

(i) in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 12(a)(v) or Section 12(a)(vi) with respect to any Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries), unless the principal of all of the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Majority Holders) or the Majority Holders, by notice in writing to the Borrower (and to the Collateral Agent if given by the Majority Holders), may declare 100% of the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under the other Note Documents to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Note to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 12(a)(v) or Section 12(a)(vi) with respect to any Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes, and all other amount owing or payable hereunder or under the other Notes Documents shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable; and

(ii) the Collateral Agent shall, at the request of the Majority Holders, exercise on behalf of itself and the holders of Notes any and all rights and remedies available to it and the holders of Notes under the Note Documents and any and all rights afforded to a “secured party” (as defined in the Code) with respect to the Note Obligations, including the Guaranty, under the Code or other applicable Law and also may (A) require each Note Party to, and each Note Party agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with terms of the Note Documents), promptly assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place and time to be reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent; (B) upon prior written notice, occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Note Parties where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under applicable Law, without obligation to such Note Party in respect of such occupation; (C) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Note Parties under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral; (D) subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable Law, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, or direct such Note Party to sell, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral without demand and without notice, advertisement, hearing or process of applicable Law, all of which each Grantor hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, at any time or any place, at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders) shall deem appropriate; and (E) to the extent of the Note Parties’ interest therein, take possession and control over all software and all associated servers, hardware and equipment, including domain name registrations and associated URLs, and each such Note Party shall provide to the Collateral Agent all access codes, transfer codes and verification codes and access to all other security measures and devices used or necessary in connection therewith. The Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale of securities (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Note Party, and each Note Party hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal that such Note Party now has or may at any time in the future have under any applicable Law now existing or hereafter enacted.

To the extent notice to the Note Parties is required under applicable Law, the Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Note Parties ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice (which each Note Party agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9611 of the Code or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. 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 (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) may determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders) shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) 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. 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, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, private) sale made pursuant to this Note or the other Note Documents, the Collateral Agent or any holder of Notes may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Note Party (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable Law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Collateral Agent or such holder of Notes, as applicable, from any Note Party as a credit against the purchase price, and the Collateral Agent or such holder of Notes, as applicable, may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Note Party therefor. For purposes hereof, a binding 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 Note Party 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 the Note Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) may proceed by a suit or suits at Law or in equity to foreclose this Note and the other Note Documents 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. Any sale pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of this Section 12(b) shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9610(b) of the Code or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

Each Note Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Note Party’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of (i) making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, and endorsing the name of such Note Party on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance, (ii) making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto and (iii) obtaining or maintaining the policies of insurance required hereby of by the other Note Documents or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto; provided that to the extent any of the foregoing actions relate to the exercise of any rights or remedies in connection with the Capital Stock of any Note Party or Subsidiary thereof, including voting rights, the Collateral Agent shall provide written notice to the applicable Note Party. All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent (for itself and on behalf of any of the Persons who are entitled to payment and reimbursement of costs and expenses under the Note Documents) in connection with this paragraph, including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable by the Note Parties upon demand and shall be additional Note Obligations secured by the Collateral.

Each Note Party recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Equity or the Pledged Debt by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Note Party acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Equity or the Pledged Debt for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

(c) Application of Proceeds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 12(b) (or after the Note Obligations have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in Section 12(b)(i)), including in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, any amounts received on account of the Note Obligations (whether as a result of a payment under a guarantee, any realization on the Collateral, any set-off rights, any distribution in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise and whether received in cash or otherwise, including all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral but excluding the payment of current interest or interest paid as a form of adequate protection in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) shall be applied by the Collateral Agent, subject to any Intercreditor Agreement then in effect, in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Note Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts payable to the Collateral Agent and the Holder Representative, as applicable, in its capacities as such;

Second, to the payment of that portion of the Note Obligations constituting fees and indemnities (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the holders of Notes, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under the Note Documents from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

Third, to the payment of that portion of the Note Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and other Note Obligations under the Note Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to any Note Party would have accrued on any such Note Obligation, whether or not a claim is allowed or allowable against any Note Party for such interest in the related bankruptcy proceeding), ratably among the holders of Notes in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fourth, to the payment of that portion of the Note Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Notes, ratably among the holders of Notes in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;

Fifth, to the payment of all other Note Obligations that are due and payable to the Collateral Agent and the holders of Notes on such date, ratably based upon the respective amounts described in this clause Fifth payable to them on such date; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Note Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Note Parties or as otherwise required by Law.

The Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Note and the other Note Documents. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

The Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any holder of Notes for actions taken in reliance on information supplied to it as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Note Obligations. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 12(c) shall be (subject to any decree of any court of competent jurisdiction) final (absent manifest error).

(d) Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the exclusive purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Note and the other Note Documents at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Note Party hereby grants to the Collateral Agent a non-exclusive, royalty-free, limited license (until the waiver or cure of all Events of Default) to use, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property and Licenses included in the Article 9 Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Note Party, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof to the extent of the applicable Note Party’s interest therein; provided, however, that (i) all of the foregoing rights of the Collateral Agent to use (to the extent permitted by the terms of such licenses and sublicenses) such licenses and sublicenses shall expire immediately upon the waiver or cure of all Events of Default and written notice by the applicable Note Party to the Collateral Agent of such waiver or cure, and shall be exercised by the Collateral Agent solely during the continuance of an Event of Default, and nothing in this Section 12(d) shall require the Note Parties to grant any license that is prohibited by any rule of Law or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of, any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing, giving rise to or theretofore granted, to the extent permitted by the Note Documents, with respect to, such property or otherwise unreasonably prejudices the value thereof to the relevant Note Party and (ii) such license and all of the foregoing rights related thereto shall automatically terminate upon the payment in full of all Note Obligations. Under the licenses to be granted by each Note Party under this Section 12(d), both (A) the use of the Intellectual Property and Licenses included in the Article 9 Collateral by the Collateral Agent and (B) the licenses granted by the Collateral Agent to a third party shall (1) with respect to Trademarks, be subject to the maintenance of reasonable quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks; (2) with regard to trade secrets, be subject to the requirement that the secret status of the trade secrets be maintained and reasonable steps are taken to ensure that they are maintained; (3) with regard to Patents, be subject to the obligation to maintain the existence and enforceability of such Patents; (4) be subject to the use of reasonable patent, trademark, copyright and proprietary notices; and (5) be subject to the Collateral Agent having no greater rights than those of any such Note Party under any such license or sublicense; provided, however, that with respect to any uses, licenses, form licenses, or any other agreements or activities in effect on or prior to the occurrence of such Event of Default the requirements set forth in the foregoing clauses (1) through (5) shall be deemed satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt, the use of such license by the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) may be exercised only during the continuation of an Event of Default and until such time as all such Events of Default have been cured or waived in writing by the requisite holders of Notes in accordance with the Note Documents. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Holders or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents) may also exercise the rights afforded under Section 12(b)(ii) with respect to Intellectual Property and Licenses contained in the Article 9 Collateral.

(e) Certain Rights on Acceleration. It is understood and agreed that if this Note is accelerated or otherwise becomes due prior to its stated maturity and prior to the MOIC Payment Termination Date, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including an Event of Default specified in Section 12(a)(v) or Section 12(a)(vi) (including the acceleration of any portion of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes by operation of law)), the MOIC Deficiency Amount, if any, shall also be due and payable in cash and shall constitute part of the Note Obligations in view of the impracticability and difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits as a result thereof. If the MOIC Deficiency Amount becomes due and payable, it shall accrue interest at a rate of 11.13% per annum from and after the applicable triggering event, including in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 12(a)(v) or Section 12(a)(vi). Any amounts payable above shall be presumed to be liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the acceleration of this Note and the Borrower and each Guarantor agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The MOIC Deficiency Amount shall also be payable in the event this Note is satisfied, released or discharged through foreclosure, whether by judicial proceeding, deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. THE BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Borrower and each Guarantor expressly agree (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the MOIC Deficiency Amount is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business entities ably represented by counsel; (B) the MOIC Deficiency Amount shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time acceleration occurs; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holder and the Borrower and each Guarantor giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the MOIC Deficiency Amount; and (D) the Borrower and each Guarantor shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Borrower and each Guarantor expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay the MOIC Deficiency Amount to holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Holder to purchase this Note.

(f) Rights not Exclusive. The rights and remedies provided for in this Note and the other Note Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by Law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.

(g) Reserved.

13. Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a) This Note and any provisions herein may be modified, amended and waived only with the written consent of the Borrower, the Majority Holders and the acknowledgement of the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent, and any such modification, amendment or waiver shall be binding on the Holder and all holders of other Notes with respect to all the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification, amendment or waiver shall be made that affects the rights, duties or immunities of the Holder Representative and/or the Collateral Agent without its written consent, as applicable. Neither this Note nor any of the other Notes forming a series with this Note may be modified or amended, and no provisions of such other Notes may be waived, unless such modification, amendment or waiver applies to all of the Notes in the series.

(b) After the date hereof, the Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Majority Holders in collecting or attempting to collect the Obligations, whether or not any action or proceeding is commenced. None of the provisions hereof and none of the Holder’s rights or remedies under this Note on account of any past or future defaults shall be deemed to have been waived by the Collateral Agent’s or the Holder’s acceptance of any past due installments or by any indulgence granted by the Collateral Agent or the Holder to the Borrower.

(c) The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and notice of every kind, and agrees that it shall remain liable for all amounts due under this Note notwithstanding any delay or failure by the Collateral Agent or the Holder to exercise any rights under this Note. Borrower hereby waives the right to plead any and all statutes of limitation as a defense to a demand under this Note to the full extent permitted by law.

(d) All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions and other communications which are required or may be given under this Note shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when received if personally delivered; when transmitted if transmitted by confirmed facsimile or other electronic transmission (including e-mail), except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient; the Business Day after it is sent if sent for next day delivery to a domestic address by recognized overnight delivery service (e.g. Federal Express); and five (5) Business Days after the date mailed by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

(e) The Holder hereby confirms the appointment of Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Fund Society, FSB as the Holder Representative and as the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holder under this Note and the other Note Documents to serve from the date hereof until the termination of this Note.

(i) Each Holder hereby irrevocably authorizes the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent to take such action and to exercise such powers hereunder as provided herein or as requested in writing by the Holder or the Majority Holders, in accordance with the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into each of the applicable Note Documents and perform its obligation and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith, subject to the indemnification and other rights of the Collateral Agent set forth herein. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, whenever reference is made in this Note to any action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent shall be acting, giving, withholding, suffering, omitting, taking or otherwise undertaking and exercising the same (or shall not be undertaking and exercising the same) as directed by the Majority Holders. Each of the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees and shall be entitled to request and act in reliance upon the advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance therewith. Neither the Holder Representative nor the Collateral Agent will incur any liability of any kind with respect to any action or omission by the Holder Representative or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in connection with its services pursuant to this Note and the other Note Documents, except in the event of liability directly resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Holder will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) and including the event of nonpayment by the Borrower under the Purchase Agreement (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Holder Representative’s or the Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, execution and performance of this Note and any other Note Documents, and the exercise or performance of their respective powers or duties hereunder (including any removal or remedial actions or other environmental claims), or in connection with any actual or alleged presence of hazardous materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any real property at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrower, the generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of hazardous materials by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at any location, whether or not owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the non-compliance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with any environmental laws, or any environmental claim asserted against the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any real property at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred, including the enforcement of this Section 13(e)(i); provided, that no such indemnification shall be provided in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Holder Representative or the Collateral Agent, as applicable.

(ii) Each of the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent may resign at any time upon 10 days’ notice to the Borrower, the Holder and the other holders of Notes, and the Majority Holders may remove or replace the Holder Representative or the Collateral Agent at any time upon 10 days’ notice by notifying the Borrower and the holders of the Notes. Upon any such resignation or replacement, the Majority Holders shall have the right to appoint a successor holder representative or collateral agent, as applicable, in consultation with the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the retiring, replaced or removed Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. If no successor Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 10^th day (a) the retiring Holder Representative’s or Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, resignation, replacement or removal shall become effective, (b) the retiring, replaced or removed Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (c) the Majority Holders shall thereafter perform all duties of the Holder Representative or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Note Documents until such time, if any, as the Majority Holders appoint a successor Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable, in consultation with the Borrower. The Holder Representative and Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have no liability or responsibility for any action or inaction of any successor Holder Representative or successor Collateral Agent, as applicable. Notwithstanding replacement of the Holder Representative or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 13(e)(ii), the Holder’s obligations under Section 13(e)(i) hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Holder Representative or Collateral Agent, as applicable.

(iii) The Holder agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provision of this Note and the Note Collateral Documents, and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and binding upon the Holder. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Note and the Note Collateral Documents, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the Holder Representative, any Holder or any Note Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Note and the Note Collateral Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Note Collateral Documents that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Holders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Note with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(iv) The parties hereto and the Holder hereby agree and acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall not assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result of this Note, the Note Collateral Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Further, the parties hereto and the Holder hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights under this Note and the Note Collateral Documents, the Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral and that any such actions taken by the Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Collateral.

(v) No provision of this Note or any Note Collateral Document shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of the holders of Notes unless it shall have received indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against potential costs and liabilities incurred by the Collateral Agent relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the Note Collateral Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the Mortgages or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous materials. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Note Parties or the Holder to be sufficient.

(f) In the event that any one or more provisions of this Note shall be held to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the same shall not affect any other provision of this Note and the remaining provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.

(g) Neither this Note nor any beneficial interest in this Note may be assigned or transferred by the Borrower; provided, this Note shall be transferrable by the Holder upon prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and the Borrower and subject to applicable securities laws and completion and execution of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form attached to the Purchase Agreement.

(h) All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Note Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by the Notes and any other Note Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Note Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Note Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Borrower under Section 4.7 of the Purchase Agreement, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.

(i) IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.

(j) The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Note and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference in this Note to a “Section” or “clause” refers to a Section or clause, as the case may be, of this Note, and the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Note as a whole and not to any particular Section or other subdivision. Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to a statute, rule or regulation refers to the same (including any successor statute, rule or regulation thereto) as it may be amended from time to time, and the word “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(k) THE BORROWER MAY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY (REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH NOTES ARE SURRENDERED TO THE BORROWER), REPURCHASE NOTES OR PORTIONS OF INDEBTEDNESS OUTSTANDING UNDER THE NOTES IN THE OPEN MARKET OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER BY THE BORROWER OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES. THE BORROWER SHALL CAUSE ANY SUCH NOTES OR PORTIONS OF INDEBTEDNESS OUTSTANDING UNDER THE NOTES SO REPURCHASED TO BE CANCELLED AND SUCH NOTES SHALL NO LONGER BE CONSIDERED OUTSTANDING UPON THEIR REPURCHASE.

(l) In no event shall the Holder Representative or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of their respective obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond their respective control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, epidemics and pandemics, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Holder Representative or Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

(m) The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the

U.S.A. PATRIOT Act, the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent. The parties to this Note agree that they will provide the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent with such information as it may request in order for the Holder Representative and the Collateral Agent to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act.
