10
Section 4.03. Investment Property. (a) Subject to Section 7.17 hereof, if such Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate representing a dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights in respect of Pledged Stock, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of the Pledged Stock, or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall hold the same in trust for the Secured Parties and deliver the same forthwith to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor as additional Collateral.

12
(b) At its option, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 4.08 of the Indenture and may pay for the maintenance and preservation (including policies of insurance) of the Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Indenture, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for any payment made or any expense incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the foregoing authorization, provided that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens and maintenance as set forth in this Agreement or in the other Notes Documents.

13
Agent shall have the right to hold the Collateral constituting Investment Property in its own name or in the name of its nominee, and the Collateral Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (A) all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant issuer or issuers or otherwise and (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any issuer thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty 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 other Grantor that is the issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder, subject to delivery of the three (3) Business Days’ prior notice specified in clause (b) above, to (i)comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B)is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii)to the extent expressly instructed in such notice, pay any dividends or other cash payments in respect of such Investment Property directly to the Collateral Agent; whereupon the Collateral Agent shall apply such amounts as set forth in Section 5.03.
(d) The Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.01(a).
Section 5.02. [Intentionally omitted.]
Section 5.03. Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing the Collateral Agent shall apply, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral pursuant to this Article 5, including Collateral consisting of cash, as follows:
First, to pay incurred and unpaid fees and expenses of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee under the Notes Documents to the extent then due and owing;
Second, to the Trustee to apply such proceeds in accordance with Section 6.10 of the Indenture; and
14
Third, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
Section 5.04. Code and Other Remedies. (a) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other Second Lien Security Documents, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required in this Agreement, any other Note Document or by law) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of such demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or statute), may in such circumstances, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, 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 elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem commercially reasonable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Agent shall not be obliged to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against any Secured Party arising because the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. The Collateral Agent may disclaim any warranty, as to title or as to any other matter, in connection with such sale or other disposition, and its doing so shall not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale or other disposition. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 5.04, after deducting all reasonable documented out-of-pocket 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 Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements to the extent required to be reimbursed under Section 7.09, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as set forth in Section 5.03. 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.
15
(b) Without limitation of the foregoing in this Section 5.04, for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent a nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors), subject in each case to the terms of any applicable Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License, to use, license and sublicense any Intellectual Property included in the Collateral (with respect to Trademarks, subject to reasonable quality control in favor of such Grantor), including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of such Intellectual Property may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. Such license may be exercised by the Collateral Agent only upon the occurrence of, and during the continuation of, an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.
Section 5.05. Securities Act. Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, 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 Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock 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.
Section 5.06. Deficiency. 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 Obligations.

ARTICLE 6
THE COLLATERAL AGENT
Section 6.01. Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, either in the name of the Collateral Agent or on behalf of such Grantor, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to do any or all of the following:
(a) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral;
(b) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; and
(c) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes.
Anything in this Section 6.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 6.01 unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
Section 6.02. Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and each agent, custodian and other Persons employed by the Collateral Agent to act hereunder or under any other Second Lien Security Document shall enjoy all the same rights, protections, immunities and indemnities granted to it under the Indenture and, to the extent not contrary to any provision of the Indenture as though set forth in full herein. In performing its functions and duties solely under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall act solely as the agent of the Secured Parties and does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any obligation or relationship of trust with or for the Secured Parties.
17
Section 6.03. Financing Statements and Other Filings.
(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that (i) indicate the Collateral as “all personal property,” “all assets” or the like of such Grantor or such other description as the Collateral Agent may determine and (ii) contain the information required by the Uniform Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor. Each Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s written request.
(b) The Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office) such documents as may be necessary for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted by each Grantor in such Intellectual Property hereunder, including any Copyright Security Agreement, Patent Security Agreement or Trademark Security Agreement, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Collateral Agent as secured party.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing authorizations, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to prepare or file any financing statements or other Second Lien Security Documents whatsoever, or to maintain the perfection of the security interest granted hereunder. Each Grantor agrees to prepare, record and file, at its own expense, financing statements (and amendments and continuation statements when applicable) with respect to the Collateral now existing or hereafter created meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Collateral to the extent required under this Agreement, the Indenture, each other Second Lien Security Document and the Intercreditor Agreement, and to deliver a file stamped copy of each such financing statement or other evidence of filing to the Collateral Agent. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation whatsoever to file any such financing or continuation statements or to make any other filing under the New York UCC in connection with this Agreement or any other Second Lien Security Document.

The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Second Lien Security Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that it would otherwise have.

Section 7.15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER NOTES DOCUMENTS.
