Section 5.01 Reserved.

Section 5.02 Validity, Etc. This Agreement and the other Security Documents to which such Grantor is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Grantor, enforceable against such Grantor in accordance with their respective terms (except, in any case, as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by principles of equity).

Section 5.03 Authorization, Approval, Etc. Except as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, no consent, authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other third party is required either (a) for the grant by such Grantor of the security interest granted hereby or for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Grantor, (b) for the perfection or maintenance of the security interests hereunder, or (c) for the exercise by the Administrative Agent of the voting or other rights provided for in this Agreement.

Section 5.04 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Grantor is the legal and beneficial owner of, and has good and defensible title to (and has full right and authority to pledge, grant and assign), its respective items of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens. No financing statement or other public notice with

respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Documents or as are filed to secure Priority Liens or Second Liens.

Section 5.05 Perfected Liens. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 3 (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on said Schedule, have been delivered to the Collateral Trustee in completed and duly executed form) will constitute valid perfected security interests in all of the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for such Grantor’s obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor and (b) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral in existence on the date hereof except for (i) Permitted Liens which have priority over the Liens on the Collateral by operation of law, (ii) the Priority Liens and (iii) the Second Liens.

Section 5.06 Legal Name, Organizational Status, Chief Executive Office. On the date hereof, the correct legal name of such Grantor, such Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization, organizational number, taxpayer identification number and the location of such Grantor’s chief executive office or sole place of business are specified on Schedule 4.

Section 5.07 Prior Names, Addresses, Locations of Tangible Assets. Schedule 5 correctly sets forth (a) all names and trade names that such Grantor has used in the last five years and (b) the chief executive officer of such Grantor over the last five years (if different from that which is set forth in Section 5.06 above).

Section 5.08 Pledged Securities. The shares (or such other interests) of Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute all the issued and outstanding shares (or such other interests) of all classes of the capital stock or other Equity Interests of each Issuer owned by such Grantor. All the shares (or such other interests) of the Pledged Securities have been duly and validly issued and, in the case of shares of stock of a corporation, are fully paid and nonassessable; and such Grantor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good title to, the Pledged Securities pledged by it hereunder, free of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens or options, warrants, puts, calls or other rights of any other Person, and restrictions or options in favor of, or claims of, any other Person, except the security interest created by this Agreement. The pledged LLC interests and the pledged partnership interests do not, by their terms, provide that they are securities to be governed by Article 8 of the NY UCC.

Such Grantor has delivered to the Collateral Trustee (or to the Priority Lien Agent or Second Lien Collateral Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement) all Collateral constituting Instruments and Chattel Paper having in value in excess of $1,000,000. No Collateral constituting Chattel Paper or Instruments contains any statement therein to the effect that such Collateral has been assigned

to an identified party other than the Collateral Trustee, and the grant of a security interest in such Collateral in favor of the Collateral Trustee hereunder does not violate the rights of any other Person as a secured party.

Section 5.11 Truth of Information; Accounts. All information with respect to the Collateral set forth in any schedule, certificate or other writing at any time heretofore or hereafter furnished by such Grantor to the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party, and all other written information heretofore or hereafter furnished by such Grantor to the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party is and will be true and correct in all material respects as of the date furnished.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then at any time in the Collateral Trustee’s discretion without notice but in each case subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, (i) the Collateral Trustee shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Securities and make application thereof to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the Collateral Trust Agreement, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Securities shall be registered in the name of the Collateral Trustee or its nominee, and the Collateral Trustee or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Securities at any meeting of shareholders (or other equivalent body) of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Securities as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Securities upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Collateral Trustee of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Securities, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Securities with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Trustee may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Trustee shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder (and each Issuer party hereto hereby agrees) to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Trustee in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly prohibited by the Intercreditor Agreement, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Securities directly to the Collateral Trustee.

(d) After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if the Issuer of any Pledged Securities is the subject of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, custodianship or other proceedings under the supervision of any Governmental Authority, then all rights of the Grantor in respect thereof to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Pledged Securities issued by such Issuer shall cease, and all such rights shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, thereupon become vested in the Collateral Trustee who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights, but the Collateral Trustee shall have no duty to exercise any such voting or other consensual rights and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

Section 7.02 Collections on Accounts, Etc. The Collateral Trustee hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect upon the Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper and Payment Intangibles subject to the Collateral Trustee’s direction and control, and the Collateral Trustee may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Upon the request of the Collateral Trustee at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor shall notify the Account Debtors that the applicable Accounts, Chattel Paper and Payment Intangibles have been assigned to the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee may in its own name or in the name of others communicate with the Account Debtors to verify with them to its satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts, Chattel Paper or Payment Intangibles.

Section 7.03 Proceeds. If required by the Collateral Trustee at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, any payments of Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper and Payment Intangibles, when collected or received by each Grantor, and any other cash or non-cash Proceeds received by each Grantor upon the sale or other disposition of any Collateral, 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 Trustee if required, in a special collateral account maintained by the Collateral Trustee, subject to withdrawal by the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties only, as hereinafter provided, and, until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of any such Grantor. Each deposit of any such Proceeds shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. All Proceeds (including, without limitation, Proceeds constituting collections of Accounts, Chattel Paper, Instruments) while held by the Collateral Trustee (or by any Grantor in trust for the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties) shall continue to be collateral security for all of the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as hereinafter provided. At such intervals as may be agreed upon by each Grantor and the Collateral Trustee, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Collateral Trustee’s election, the Collateral Trustee shall apply all or any part of the funds on deposit in said special collateral account on account of the Secured Obligations in such order as the Collateral Trustee may elect, and any part of such funds which the Collateral Trustee elects not so to apply and deems not required as collateral security for the Secured Obligations shall be paid over from time to time by the Collateral Trustee to each Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

Section 7.04 NY UCC and Other Remedies.

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise in its discretion, in addition to all other rights, remedies, powers and privileges granted to them in this Agreement, the other Note Documents and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights, remedies, powers and privileges of a secured party under the NY UCC (whether the NY UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights, remedies, powers or

privileges are asserted) or any other applicable law or otherwise available at law or equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Trustee, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Trustee’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Trustee at places which the Collateral Trustee shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Any such sale or transfer by the Collateral Trustee either to itself or to any other Person shall be absolutely free from any claim of right by Grantor, including any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal which Grantor has or may have under any rule of law, regulation or statute now existing or hereafter adopted. Upon any such sale or transfer, the Collateral Trustee shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser or transferee thereof the Collateral so sold or transferred. The Collateral Trustee shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 7.04, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in accordance with the Collateral Trust Agreement, and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Trustee of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615 of the NY UCC, need the Collateral Trustee account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

(b) In the event that the Collateral Trustee elects not to sell the Collateral, the Collateral Trustee retains its rights to dispose of or utilize the Collateral or any part or parts thereof in any manner authorized or permitted by law or in equity, and to apply the proceeds of the same towards payment of the Secured Obligations. Each and every method of disposition of the Collateral described in this Agreement shall constitute disposition in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Trustee may appoint any Person as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale or transfer of the Collateral.

Section 7.05 Private Sales of Pledged Securities. Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Trustee may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Securities, 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 Grantor 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 Trustee shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Securities 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. Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may reasonably be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Securities pursuant to this Section 7.05 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Governmental Requirements. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7.05 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 7.05 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

Section 7.06 Waiver; Deficiency. Each Grantor waives and agrees not to assert any rights or privileges which it may acquire under the NY UCC or any other applicable law. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

Section 7.07 Non-Judicial Enforcement. The Collateral Trustee may enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, and to the extent permitted by law, each Grantor expressly waives any and all legal rights which might otherwise require the Collateral Trustee to enforce its rights by judicial process.

Anything in this Section 8.01(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Trustee agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 8.01(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein within the applicable grace periods, the Collateral Trustee, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The expenses of the Collateral Trustee incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 8.01, together with interest thereon from the date of payment by the Collateral Trustee to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Collateral Trustee on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue and in compliance hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

Section 8.02 Duty of Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the NY UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Trustee deals with similar property for its own account and shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which comparable secured parties accord comparable collateral. Neither the Collateral Trustee, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Trustee’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Trustee shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give any presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Secured Obligations, or to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights against any Grantor or other Person or ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not it has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. Each Grantor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives any right of marshaling in respect of any and all Collateral, and waives any right to require the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party to proceed against any Grantor or other Person, exhaust any Collateral or enforce any other remedy which the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against each Subsidiary Grantor, any Grantor or other Person.

Section 8.03 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to the NY UCC and any other applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Trustee, its counsel or its representative, at any time and from time to time, to file or record financing statements, continuation statements, amendments thereto and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Collateral Trustee reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Trustee under this Agreement. Additionally, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Trustee, its counsel or its representative, at any time and from time to time, to file or record such financing statements that describe the collateral covered thereby as “all assets of the Grantor”, “all personal property of the Grantor” or words of similar effect. A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction.

Section 8.04 Authority of Collateral Trustee. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Trustee under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Trustee or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Trustee of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Collateral Trust Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Trustee and the Grantors, the Collateral Trustee shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

ARTICLE IX
SUBORDINATION OF INDEBTEDNESS

Section 9.01 Subordination of All Grantor Claims. As used herein, the term “Grantor Claims” means all debts and obligations of the Company or any other Grantor to any Grantor, whether such debts and obligations now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligation of the debtor thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or obligations be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such debts or obligations may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by. After and during the continuation of an Event of Default, no Grantor shall receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from any obligor in respect thereof any amount upon the Grantor Claims.

Section 9.02 Claims in Bankruptcy. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief or other insolvency proceedings involving any Grantor, the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have the right to prove their claim in any proceeding, so as to establish their rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian, dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Grantor Claims. Each Grantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties for application against the Secured Obligations as provided under the Collateral Trust Agreement. Should any Agent or Secured

Party receive, for application upon the Secured Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to any Grantor, and which, as between such Grantor, shall constitute a credit upon the Grantor Claims, then upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the intended recipient shall become subrogated to the rights of the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties to the extent that such payments to the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties on the Grantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Secured Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Secured Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties had not received dividends or payments upon the Grantor Claims.

Section 9.03 Payments Held in Trust. In the event that notwithstanding Section 9.01 and Section 9.02, any Grantor should receive any funds, payments, claims or distributions which is prohibited by such Sections, then it agrees: (a) to hold in trust for the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and (b) that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions except to pay them promptly to the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties; and each Grantor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Collateral Trustee.

Section 9.04 Liens Subordinate. Each Grantor agrees that, until the Secured Obligations are paid in full, any Liens securing payment of the Grantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any Liens securing payment of the Secured Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of such Grantor, the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Trustee, no Grantor, during the period in which any of the Secured Obligations are outstanding, shall (a) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against any debtor in respect of the Grantor Claims, or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceeding (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of or joinder in any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any Lien held by it.

Section 9.05 Notation of Records. Upon the request of the Collateral Trustee, all promissory notes and all accounts receivable ledgers or other evidence of the Grantor Claims accepted by or held by any Grantor shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.01 Waiver. No failure on the part of the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, remedy, power or privilege under any of the Note Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any of the Note Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. The exercise by the Collateral Trustee of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies

herein shall not be construed as a waiver of any other rights, powers and remedies, including, without limitation, any rights of set-off.

Section 10.02 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be given in the manner and subject to the terms of Section 11.2 of the Indenture; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Subsidiary Grantor shall be addressed to such Subsidiary Grantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

Section 10.03 Payment of Expenses, Indemnities, Etc.

(a) Each Grantor agrees to pay or promptly reimburse the Collateral Trustee and each other Secured Party for all advances, charges, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of holding, preparing for sale and selling, collecting or otherwise realizing upon the Collateral and all attorneys’ fees, legal expenses and court costs) incurred by any Secured Party in connection with the exercise of its respective rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, any advances, charges, costs and expenses that may be incurred in any effort to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or any obligation of any Grantor in respect of the Collateral or in connection with (i) the preservation of the Lien of, or the rights of the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or attempted sale, lease, disposition, exchange, collection, compromise, settlement or other realization in respect of, or care of, the Collateral, including all such costs and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy, reorganization, workout or other similar proceeding, or (iii) otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Note Documents to which such Grantor is a party.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, court costs and attorneys’ fees, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) incurred because of, incident to, or with respect to, the Collateral (including, without limitation, any exercise of rights or remedies in connection therewith) or the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, to the extent the Company would be required to do so pursuant to Sections 7.7 or 10.1 of the Indenture. All amounts for which any Grantor is liable pursuant to this Section 10.03 shall be due and payable by such Grantor to the Secured Parties upon demand.

Section 10.04 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with the Collateral Trust Agreement.

Section 10.05 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties and their successors and assigns; provided that except as set forth in the Indenture, no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Trustee.

Section 10.06 Invalidity. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any of the Note Documents to which a Grantor is a party shall, for any reason, be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or such other Note Document.

Section 10.07 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

Section 10.08 Survival. The obligations of the parties under Section 10.03 shall survive the repayment of the Notes and the termination of the Indenture. To the extent that any payments on the Secured Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Secured Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Collateral Trustee’s and the other Secured Parties’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Security Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Security Document shall be automatically reinstated and each Grantor shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties to effect such reinstatement.

Section 10.09 Captions. Captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 10.10 No Oral Agreements. The Note Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the parties and supersede all other agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. The Note Documents represent the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

Section 10.11 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of New York.

(b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Note Documents to which a Grantor is a party shall be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and each of the Collateral Trustee and the Grantors hereby accepts for itself and (to the extent permitted by law) in respect of its Property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each of the Collateral Trustee and the Grantors hereby irrevocably waives any objection, including, without limitation, any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or

proceeding in such respective jurisdictions. This submission to jurisdiction is non-exclusive and does not preclude the Collateral Trustee from obtaining jurisdiction over such Grantor in any court otherwise having jurisdiction.

(c) Each of the Collateral Trustee and the Grantors irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Person at the address specified on Schedule 1 of this Agreement or in the Indenture, as applicable, such service to become effective thirty (30) days after such mailing. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Collateral Trustee or any holder of a Note or Grantor to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against such Grantor in any other jurisdiction.

(d) Each Grantor hereby (i) irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Note Document and for any counterclaim therein; (ii) irrevocably waive, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any such litigation any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages, or damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages; (iii) certify that no party hereto nor any representative or agent or counsel for any party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, or implied that such party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers, and (iv) acknowledge that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement, the Note Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications contained in this Section 10.11.

Section 10.12 Acknowledgments. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Note Documents to which it is a party;

(b) neither the Collateral Trustee nor any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, and the relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Note Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Secured Parties or among the Grantors and the Lenders.

(d) each of the parties hereto specifically agrees that it has a duty to read this Agreement and the Security Documents and agrees that it is charged with notice and knowledge of the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents; that it has in fact read this Agreement and is fully informed and has full notice and knowledge of the terms, conditions and effects of this Agreement; that it has been represented by independent legal counsel of its choice throughout the negotiations preceding its execution of this Agreement and the Security Documents; and has received the advice of its attorney in entering into this Agreement and the

Security Documents; and that it recognizes that certain of the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents result in one party assuming the liability inherent in some aspects of the transaction and relieving the other party of its responsibility for such liability. Each party hereto agrees and covenants that it will not contest the validity or enforceability of any exculpatory provision of this Agreement and the Security Documents on the basis that the party had no notice or knowledge of such provision or that the provision is not “conspicuous.”

(e) each Grantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth in this Agreement are made voluntarily and unconditionally after consultation with outside legal counsel and with full knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which such Grantor otherwise may have against the Company, any other Grantor, the Secured Parties or any other Person or against any collateral. If, notwithstanding the intent of the parties that the terms of this Agreement shall control in any and all circumstances, any such waivers or consents are determined to be unenforceable under applicable law, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Section 10.13 Additional Grantors. Each Subsidiary of the Company that becomes a Guarantor under the Indenture and is not a signatory hereto shall become 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 10.14 Set-Off. Each Grantor agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off, bankers’ lien or counterclaim a Secured Party may otherwise have, each Secured Party shall have the right and be entitled (after consultation with the Collateral Trustee), at its option, to offset balances held by it or by any of its Affiliates for account of any Grantor or any Subsidiary at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Secured Party, or any other amount due and payable to such Secured Party hereunder, which is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Person), in which case it shall promptly notify the Company and the Collateral Trustee thereof, provided that such Secured Party’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

Section 10.15 Releases.

(a) Release upon Payment in Full. The grant of a security interest hereunder and all of rights, powers and remedies in connection herewith shall remain in full force and effect until the Collateral Trustee has (i) retransferred and delivered all Collateral in its possession to the Grantors, and (ii) executed a written release or termination statement and reassigned to the Grantors without recourse or warranty any remaining Collateral and all rights conveyed hereby. Upon the complete payment of the Secured Obligations, the termination of the Indenture and the compliance by the Grantors with all covenants and agreements hereof, the Collateral Trustee, at the written request and expense of the Company, will promptly release, reassign and transfer the Collateral to the Grantors and declare this Agreement to be of no further force or effect.

(b) Further Assurances. If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Indenture or to the extent that such Collateral is permitted to be released pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and the Collateral Trust Agreement, then the Collateral Trustee, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral and the capital stock of such Grantor. At the request and sole expense of the Company, a Grantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the capital stock of such Grantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Indenture; provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Collateral Trustee, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Grantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Company stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Indenture and the other Note Documents.

(c) Retention in Satisfaction. Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9-620 of the NY UCC, no action taken or omission to act by the Collateral Trustee or the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, any exercise of voting or consensual rights or any other action taken or inaction, shall be deemed to constitute a retention of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, and the Secured Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, until the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties shall have applied payments (including, without limitation, collections from Collateral) towards the Secured Obligations in the full amount then outstanding or until such subsequent time as is provided in Section 10.15(a).

Section 10.16 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Grantor under this Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to the provision of collateral herein) shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any Grantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any Grantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

Section 10.17 Acceptance. Each Grantor hereby expressly waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement, acceptance on the part of the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Parties being conclusively presumed by their request for this Agreement and delivery of the same to the Collateral Trustee.

Section 10.18 Intercreditor Agreement Controls.

(a) Each Secured Party, by accepting the benefits of the security provided hereby, (i) consents (or is deemed to consent), to the subordination of Liens provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) agrees (or is deemed to agree) that it will be bound by, and will take no actions contrary to, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) authorizes (or is

deemed to authorize) the Collateral Trustee on behalf of such Person to enter into, and perform under, the Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) acknowledges (or is deemed to acknowledge) that a copy of the Intercreditor Agreement was delivered, or made available, to such Secured Party.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, this Agreement, the Liens created hereby and the rights, remedies, duties and obligations provided for herein are subject in all respects to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, at any time prior to the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and the Discharge of the Second Lien Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), any provision hereof requiring any Grantor to deliver possession of any Collateral to the Collateral Trustee, or to cause the Collateral Trustee to control any Collateral, shall be deemed to have been complied with, if and for so long as (i) the Intercreditor Agreement is in full force and effect and (ii) the Priority Lien Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Trustee, as applicable, shall have such possession or control for the benefit of the Secured Parties and as bailee or sub-agent of the Collateral Trustee as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement.
