NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements set forth herein and in order to induce Lenders to make the Loans under the Credit Agreement and to make and maintain loans, advances and other financial accommodations under the Credit Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Grantor hereby agrees with Agent as follows:

SECTION 1. Grant of Security.

Each Grantor hereby pledges, mortgages, hypothecates and (except in the case of ULC Shares) assigns to Agent, and hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to all of the property of such Grantor, in each case whether now or hereafter existing, whether tangible or intangible, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, wherever the same may be located and whether or not subject to the Uniform Commercial Code as it exists on the date of this Agreement, or as it may hereafter be amended in, the State of New York (the “UCC”), including all of the following (the “Collateral”):

(a) all Accounts;

(b) all Chattel Paper;

(c) all Money, Securities Accounts and all Deposit Accounts, together with all amounts on deposit from time to time in such Deposit Accounts;

-2-

(d) all Documents;

(e) all Documents of Title (as defined in the PPSA);

(f) all Farm Products;

(g) all General Intangibles, Intangibles (as defined in the PPSA) and all Intellectual Property, Payment Intangibles and Software;

(h) all Goods, including Inventory, Equipment and Fixtures;

(i) all Instruments;

(j) all Investment Property;

(k) all Letter-of-Credit Rights and other Supporting Obligations;

(l) all Records;

(m) all Assigned Contracts;

(n) all Commercial Tort Claims, including those set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto; and

(o) all Proceeds and Accessions with respect to any of the foregoing Collateral, including all insurance proceeds on or in respect of any of the foregoing Collateral.

Each term set forth above shall have the meaning set forth in the UCC and the PPSA as indicated (to the extent such term is defined in the UCC or elsewhere herein), it being the intention of Grantors that the description of the Collateral set forth above be construed to include the broadest possible range of assets.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Collateral include, and no Grantor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in any of such Grantor’s rights or interests in or under: (i) voting Equity Interests of any CFC, solely to the extent (y) such Equity Interests represent an excess over 65% of the outstanding voting Equity Interests of such CFC, and (z) pledging or hypothecating more than 65% of the total outstanding Equity Interests of such CFC would result in adverse tax consequences or the costs to the Grantors of providing such pledge are unreasonably excessive (as determined by the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) in consultation with the Administrative Borrower) in relation to the benefits to Agent and the other Secured Parties of the security afforded thereby (which pledge, if reasonably requested by Agent (which shall be at the direction of the Required Lenders), shall be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction of such Subsidiary); (ii) any United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark applications under applicable federal law, provided that upon submission and acceptance by the applicable IP Filing Office of an amendment to allege use pursuant to 15 U.S.C. Section 1060(a) (or any successor provision), such intent-to-use trademark application

-3-

shall be considered Collateral; and (iii) any license, contract, permit, Instrument, security or franchise to which such Grantor is a party as of the date hereof or any of its rights or interests thereunder to the extent, but only to the extent, that such a grant would, under the terms of such license, contract, permit, Instrument, security or franchise, result in a breach of the terms of, or constitute a default under, such license, contract, permit, Instrument, security or franchise (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to the UCC, PPSA or any other applicable law in any applicable jurisdiction (including the Bankruptcy Code) or principles of equity); provided, that, immediately upon the ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any such provision the Collateral shall, without any further action by any party hereto, include, and such Grantor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, all such rights and interests as if such provision had never been in effect; and provided, further, that the foregoing exclusion shall in no way be construed to limit, impair or otherwise affect any of Agent’s or any other Secured Party’s continuing security interests in and liens upon any rights or interests of any Grantor in or to monies due or to become due under or in connection with any described such license, contract, permit, Instrument, security or franchise, or any proceeds from the sale, license, lease or other dispositions of any such license, contract, permit, Instrument, security or franchise. In the event that any asset of a Grantor is excluded from the Collateral by virtue of clause (iii) of the foregoing sentence (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to the UCC, PPSA or any other applicable law (including the Bankruptcy Code) or principles of equity), such Grantor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all requisite consents to enable such Grantor to provide a security interest in such asset pursuant hereto as promptly as practicable. The security interests granted hereunder shall not extend to (i) any consumer goods (as defined in the PPSA) of Select Agendas; or (ii) the last day of any real property lease, or any agreement to lease to which Select Agendas is now or becomes a party as lessee, provided that any such last day shall be held in trust by Select Agendas for the Agent and, on the exercise by the Agent of its rights and remedies hereunder, shall be assigned by Select Agendas as directed by the Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall have a security interest in, and a pledge and collateral assignment of (but not a present assignment of) any Canadian trademarks or ULC Shares forming part of the Collateral.

Each of the Grantors hereby acknowledges that (a) value has been given; (b) each Grantor has rights in the Collateral in which it has granted a security interest; (c) this Agreement constitutes a security agreement as that term is defined in the PPSA; and (d) it has not agreed to postpone the time for attachment of the security interest granted hereunder and the security interest granted hereunder attaches upon the execution of this Agreement (or in the case of any after-acquired property, at the time of the acquisition thereof).

Each of the Grantors hereby further acknowledges and agrees that if the Collateral is realized upon and such Collateral or the proceeds of such Collateral is not sufficient to satisfy all Secured Obligations, subject to the provisions of the PPSA, such Grantor shall continue to be liable for any Obligations remaining outstanding and the Agent shall be entitled to pursue full payment thereof.

-4-

SECTION 2. Security for Obligations.

This Agreement secures, and the Collateral is collateral security for, the prompt payment and performance in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, acceleration or demand in accordance with the Credit Agreement, or otherwise, of all obligations of each Grantor to each Secured Party, including the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement), however created, arising or evidenced, and whether or not evidenced by a Loan Document (including, without limitation, interest and other amounts that, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to any Grantor, would accrue on such obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against such Grantor for such amounts in the related bankruptcy proceeding), together with all extensions or renewals thereof, whether for principal, interest, fees, premiums, expenses, reimbursement obligations, indemnities, or otherwise, whether voluntary or involuntary, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now existing or hereafter arising or acquired, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not jointly owed with others, and whether or not from time to time decreased or extinguished and later increased, created or incurred, and all or any portion of such obligations or liabilities that are paid, to the extent all or any part of such payment is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from Agent or any other Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and all obligations of every nature of Grantors now or hereafter existing under this Agreement (collectively, the “Secured Obligations”). Each Grantor confirms that value has been given by the Secured Parties or any of them to such Grantor, that such Grantor has rights in its Collateral existing at the date of this Agreement and that such Grantor and the Agent have not agreed to postpone the time for attachment of the Security Interest in any of the Collateral of such Grantor.

SECTION 3. Grantors Remain Liable.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under any contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, to the extent set forth therein, to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Agent of any of its rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, (c) Agent shall not have any obligation or liability under any contracts, licenses, and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder and (d) neither Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any custodial or ministerial duties to perform with respect to the Collateral pledged except as expressly set forth herein; and by way of explanation and not by way of limitation, neither Agent nor any other Secured Party shall incur liability for any of the following: (i) defects in title to or ownership of Collateral, (ii) loss or depreciation of, or any decline in the value of, Collateral, or (iii) failure to present any paper for payment or protest, to protest or give notice of nonpayment or any other notice with respect to any paper or Collateral.

Upon the recordation of a Grant with respect to the Intellectual Property Collateral with the applicable IP Filing Office, no subsequent purchaser or mortgagee for value may obtain claim in or title to any Intellectual Property Collateral having priority or seniority over the security interests in such Intellectual Property Collateral granted by each Grantor to Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties pursuant hereto.

Upon delivery to Agent of an IP Supplement, Schedules 8, 9 and 10 annexed hereto and Schedule A to each Grant, as applicable, shall be deemed modified to include a reference to any right, title or interest in any existing Intellectual Property Collateral or any such Intellectual Property Collateral set forth on Schedule A to such IP Supplement (and the representations and warranties contained in Section 4(g) hereof shall be deemed to have been made by such Grantor as of the end of such calendar month with respect to which such IP Supplement is delivered).

SECTION 9. Special Covenants With Respect to the Securities Collateral: IRREVOCABLE PROXY.

(a) Form of Securities Collateral. Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Securities Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. As of the Closing Date, each limited liability company agreement governing the Pledged Equity shall expressly provide that such Pledged Equity is a security governed by Article 8 of the UCC (and, in the case of any Grantor that is organized under the laws of Canada or a province or territory thereof, such Grantor represents and warrants that all interests in partnerships or limited liability companies are a “security” for the purposes of the STA (if applicable)).

(b) Covenants. Each Grantor shall, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, (i) not permit any issuer of Pledged Subsidiary Equity to merge or consolidate unless all the outstanding Equity Interests of the surviving or resulting Person are, upon such merger or consolidation, pledged and become Collateral hereunder and no cash, securities or other property is distributed in respect of the outstanding Equity Interests of any other constituent corporation; (ii) cause each issuer of Pledged Subsidiary Equity not to issue Equity Interests in addition to or in substitution for the Pledged Subsidiary Equity issued by such issuer, except to such Grantor; (iii) promptly upon its acquisition (directly or indirectly) of any Equity Interests, including additional Equity Interests in each issuer of Pledged Equity, comply with Section 5(b); (iv) promptly upon issuance of any and all Instruments or other evidences of additional Debt from time to time owed to such Grantor by any obligor on the Pledged Debt, comply with Section 5; (v) promptly deliver to Agent all written notices received by it with respect to the Securities Collateral; (vi) at its expense (A) perform and comply in all material respects with all terms and provisions of any agreement related to the Securities Collateral required to be performed or complied with by it, (B) maintain all such agreements in full force and effect and (C) enforce all such agreements in accordance with their terms; and (vii) promptly execute and deliver to Agent an agreement providing for control (within the meaning under the UCC) by Agent of all Security Entitlements, Securities Accounts, Commodity Contracts and Commodity Accounts of such Grantor.

(c) Voting and Distributions. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or, in the case of pledged ULC Shares, until the ULC Shares are no longer registered in the name of the applicable Grantor) and except as otherwise specified in the Credit Agreement, (i) each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other

-14-

consensual rights pertaining to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the DIP Order; provided, no Grantor shall exercise any such right, or refrain from exercising any such right, if such exercise, or refrain from exercising, any such right would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Securities Collateral or any part thereof; or on the rights and remedies of Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral, and (ii) each Grantor shall be entitled, subject to the Carve-Out and the DIP Order, to receive and retain any and all dividends, other distributions, principal and interest paid in respect of the Securities Collateral.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (x) upon written notice from Agent to any Grantor, all rights of such Grantor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights; (y) all rights, if any, of such Grantor to receive the dividends, other distributions, principal and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant hereto shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such dividends, other distributions, principal and interest payments; and (z) all dividends, principal, interest payments and other distributions which are received by such Grantor contrary to the provisions of clause (y) above shall be received in trust for the benefit of Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall forthwith be paid over to Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsements); provided, however, that solely in the case of ULC Shares, the applicable Grantor shall have the right to vote such shares and to retain for its own account any dividends or other distributions on such shares (other than to the extent same consists of certificated Pledged Equity which shall be delivered to Agent to be held in accordance with the terms hereof) until such shares are effectively transferred in to the name of a person other than such Grantor).

In order to permit Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (I) each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as Agent may from time to time reasonably request, which proxies, dividend payment orders and instruments shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Equity on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other Person (including the issuer of the Pledged Equity or any officer or Agent thereof), upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and (II) without limiting the effect of clause (I) above, EACH GRANTOR HEREBY GRANTS TO AGENT AN IRREVOCABLE PROXY AND IRREVOCABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY (WHICH POWER OF ATTORNEY IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST) to vote the Pledged Equity and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged Equity would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of holders of Equity Interests, calling special meetings of holders of Equity Interests and voting at such meetings), which proxy and power of attorney shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Equity on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other Person (including the issuer of the Pledged Equity or any officer or Agent thereof), upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (except with respect to the ULC Shares) and which proxy and power of attorney shall only terminate upon the waiver of such Event of Default as evidenced by a writing executed by Agent and any other Person required by the terms of the Loan Documents, or on the Termination Date.

-15-

(d) Each Grantor acknowledges that certain of the Collateral of such Grantor may now or in the future consist of ULC Shares, and that it is the intention of Agent and each Grantor that neither Agent nor any Secured Party should under any circumstances prior to realization thereon be held to be a “member” or a “shareholder”, as applicable, of a ULC for the purposes of any ULC Laws. Therefore, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, where a Grantor is the registered and beneficial owner of ULC Shares which are Collateral of such Grantor, such Grantor will remain the sole registered and beneficial owner of such ULC Shares until such time as such ULC Shares are effectively transferred into the name of the Agent, any other Secured Party, or any other Person on the books and records of the applicable ULC. Accordingly, each Grantor shall be entitled, subject to the Carve-Out and the DIP Order, to receive and retain for its own account any dividend on or other distribution, if any, in respect of such ULC Shares (except for any dividend or distribution comprised of any certificates representing the Pledged Equity of such Grantor, which shall be delivered to Agent to hold hereunder) and shall have the right to vote such ULC Shares and to control the direction, management and policies of the applicable ULC to the same extent as such Grantor would if such ULC Shares were not pledged to Agent pursuant hereto. Nothing in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document is intended to, and nothing in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, constitute Agent, any Secured Party, or any other Person other than the applicable Grantor, a member or shareholder of a ULC for the purposes of any ULC Laws (whether listed or unlisted, registered or beneficial), until such time as notice is given to such Grantor and further steps are taken pursuant hereto or thereto so as to register the Agent, any Secured Party, or such other Person, as specified in such notice, as the holder of the ULC Shares. To the extent any provision hereof or the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document would have the effect of constituting Agent or any Secured Party, as applicable, a member or shareholder of any ULC prior to such time, such provision shall be severed herefrom or therefrom and shall be ineffective with respect to ULC Shares which are Collateral of any Grantor without otherwise invalidating or rendering unenforceable this Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar as it relates to Collateral of any Grantor which is not ULC Shares. Except upon the exercise of rights of Agent to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of ULC Shares in accordance with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Grantor shall not cause or permit, or enable a Grantor that is a ULC to cause or permit, Agent or any Secured Party to: (a) be registered as a shareholder or member of such ULC; (b) have any notation entered in their favour in the share register of such Grantor; (c) be held out as shareholders or members of such Grantor; (d) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other distributions from such Grantor by reason of Agent holding the Security Interests over the ULC Shares; or (e) act as a shareholder or member of such Grantor, or exercise any rights of a shareholder or member including the right to attend a meeting of shareholders or members of such Grantor or to vote its ULC Shares.

SECTION 10. Special Covenants With Respect to the Intellectual Property Collateral.

(a) Each Grantor shall:

(i) not permit the inclusion in any contract to which it hereafter becomes a party of any provision that could or might in any way impair or prevent the creation of a security interest in, or the assignment of, such Grantor’s rights and interests in any property included within the definitions of any Intellectual Property Collateral acquired under such contracts;

(ii) take any and all reasonable steps to protect the secrecy of all trade secrets relating to the products and services sold or delivered under or in connection with the Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, where appropriate entering into confidentiality agreements with employees and labeling and restricting access to secret information and documents;

(iii) use proper statutory notice in connection with its use of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral and products and services covered by the Intellectual Property Collateral (in the case of Intellectual Property Collateral that is acquired after the Closing Date, within a commercially reasonable period, but in any event within no more than 45 days after such Intellectual Property Collateral is acquired); and

(iv) use a commercially appropriate standard of quality (which may be consistent with such Grantor’s past practices) in the manufacture, sale and delivery of products and services sold or delivered under or in connection with the Trademarks.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10, each Grantor shall continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof in accordance with customary applicable payment terms. In connection with such collections, each Grantor may take (and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default at Agent’s reasonable direction (acting under the direction of the Required Lenders), shall take) such action as such Grantor or Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to enforce collection of such amounts in accordance with customary applicable payment terms; provided, Agent shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to notify the obligors with respect to any such amounts of the existence of the security interest created hereby and to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done. All amounts and proceeds (including checks and Instruments) received by each Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof (but in the case of cash, only to the extent received after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) shall be received in trust for the benefit of Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement), in accordance, where applicable, with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the DIP Order. Grantors shall not at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without the written consent of Agent, adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

-17-

(c) Each Grantor shall diligently, through counsel reasonably acceptable to Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), prosecute, file and/or make, unless and until such Grantor, in its commercially reasonable judgment, decides otherwise, (i) any application for registration relating to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral owned, held or used by such Grantor and set forth on Schedules 8, 9 or 10 annexed hereto, as applicable, that is pending as of the date of this Agreement, (ii) any Copyright Registration on any existing or future unregistered but copyrightable works (except for works of nominal commercial value or with respect to which such Grantor has determined in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment that it shall not seek registration), (iii) any application on any future patentable but unpatented innovation or invention comprising Intellectual Property Collateral (except for inventions of nominal commercial value with respect to which such Grantor has determined in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment that it shall not seek a patent), and (iv) any Trademark opposition and cancellation proceedings, renew Trademark Registrations and Copyright Registrations and do any and all acts which are necessary or desirable to preserve and maintain all rights in all Intellectual Property Collateral (except for Intellectual Property of nominal commercial value with respect to which such Grantor has determined in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment that it shall not maintain such proceeding or seek such protection). Any expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be borne solely by Grantors. Subject to the foregoing, each Grantor shall give Agent prior written notice of any abandonment of any Intellectual Property Collateral (except for Intellectual Property of nominal commercial value with respect to which such Grantor has determined in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment that it shall not maintain such proceeding or seek such protection).

(d) Except as provided herein, each Grantor shall have the right to commence and prosecute in its own name, as real party in interest, for its own benefit and at its own expense, such suits, proceedings or other actions for infringement, unfair competition, dilution, misappropriation or other damage, or reexamination or reissue proceedings as are necessary to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral. Each Grantor shall promptly, following its becoming aware thereof, notify Agent of the institution of, or of any adverse determination in, any proceeding (whether in an IP Filing Office or any federal, state, provincial, local or foreign court) or regarding such Grantor’s ownership, right to use, or interest in any Intellectual Property Collateral. Each Grantor shall provide to Agent any information with respect thereto reasonably requested by Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders).

(e) In addition to, and not by way of limitation of, the granting of a security interest in the Collateral pursuant hereto, each Grantor, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to Agent the nonexclusive right and license to use all Trademarks, Copyrights, Patents or technical processes (including, without limitation, the Intellectual Property Collateral) owned or used by such Grantor that relate to the Collateral, together with any goodwill associated therewith, all to the extent necessary to enable Agent to realize on the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and to enable any transferee or assignee of the Collateral to enjoy the benefits of the Collateral. This right shall inure to the benefit of all successors, assigns and transferees of Agent and its successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary conveyance, operation of law, assignment, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. Such right and license shall be granted free of charge, without requirement that any monetary payment whatsoever be made to such Grantor.

SECTION 11. Collateral Account.

[Reserved]

SECTION 12. Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.

Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, Agent or otherwise, from time to time in Agent’s discretion (at the direction of the Required Lenders and subject however to compliance with applicable law) to take any action and to execute any instrument that Agent may deem necessary or advisable (at the direction of the Required Lenders) to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement to the extent any such action is not inconsistent with the DIP Order or the Credit Agreement and without application to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, including, without limitation:

(a) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement;

(b) to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(c) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other Instruments, Documents, Chattel Paper and other documents in connection with clauses (a) and (b) above;

(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce or protect the rights of Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

(e) to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than taxes not required to be discharged pursuant to the Credit Agreement and Liens permitted under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion), any such payments made by Agent to become obligations of such Grantor to Agent, due and payable immediately without demand;

(f) to sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with Accounts and other documents relating to the Collateral; and

(g) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Agent’s option and Grantors’ expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

-19-

Without limiting the generality of any other provision of this Agreement, Agent agrees that, except for the powers granted pursuant to clause (e) above, it will not exercise any power or authority granted pursuant to this Section 12 unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 13. Agent May Perform.

If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Grantors under Section 18(b).

SECTION 14. Standard of Care.

The powers conferred on Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Agent accords its own property.

SECTION 15. Remedies.

(a) Generally. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (subject solely in the case of ULC Shares to Section 9(d)), Agent may, to the extent any such action is not inconsistent with the DIP Order or the Credit Agreement and without application to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a Secured Party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and the PPSA, and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of Agent forthwith (acting under the direction of the Required Lenders), assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Agent (acting under the direction of the Required Lenders) and make it available to Agent at a place to be designated by Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, (ii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process, (iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent Agent deems appropriate (at the direction of the Required Lenders), (iv) take possession of any Grantor’s premises or place custodians in exclusive control thereof, remain on such premises and use the same and any of such Grantor’s equipment for the purpose of completing any work in process, taking any actions described in the preceding clause (iii) and collecting any Secured Obligation, (v) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable (at the direction of the Required Lenders), (vi) exercise dominion and control over and refuse to permit further withdrawals from any Deposit

-20-

Account maintained with Agent or any Lender and provide instructions directing the disposition of funds in Deposit Accounts not maintained with Agent or any Lender, (vii) provide entitlement orders with respect to security entitlements and other investment property constituting a part of the Collateral and, without notice to any Grantor, transfer to or register in the name of Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Securities Collateral and (viii) appoint by instrument in writing a receiver, receiver-manager, manager or receiver and manager (each a “Receiver”) for the Collateral of each Grantor and with such rights, powers and authority as may be provided for in such instrument of appointment or any supplemental instrument. To the extent permitted by applicable law and the DIP Order, any Receiver appointed by the Agent shall (for the purposes relating to responsibility for the Receiver’s acts or omissions) be considered to be the agent of such Grantor. The Agent may from time to time fix the Receiver’s remuneration and such Grantor shall pay the amount of such remuneration to the Agent. The Agent shall not be liable to any Grantor or any other person in connection with appointing a Receiver or in connection with the Receiver’s actions or omissions. Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not a Secured Party in its individual capacity unless Requisite Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, valuation, extension, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence (but subject to the terms of the DIP Order), if, under mandatory requirements of law, the Agent shall be required to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the applicable Grantor as specified in the foregoing sentence, the Agent need give the applicable Grantor only such notice of disposition as shall be reasonably practicable. 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. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Obligations, Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 15 will cause irreparable injury to Agent, that Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Obligations

-21-

becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Each Grantor agrees not to assert against Agent or any other Secured Party as a defense (legal or equitable) as a set-off, as a counterclaim or otherwise, any claims any Grantor may have against any seller or lessor that provided personal property or services relating to any part of the Collateral or against any other party liable to any Secured Party for all or any part of the Secured Obligations. Each Grantor waives all exemptions and homestead rights with respect to the Collateral. Each Grantor waives any and all rights to any bond or security which might be required by applicable law prior to the exercise of any Agent’s or other Secured Party’s remedies against Collateral. All rights of Agent and the other Secured Parties or otherwise arising from the security interests hereunder, and all obligations of the Grantors hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be absolute and unconditional, not discharged or impaired irrespective of (and regardless of whether any Grantor receives any notice of): (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any other Loan Document, (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance, or in any term, of all or any of the Secured Obligations or the Loan Documents or any other amendment or waiver or consent to any departure from any Loan Document, and any increase or decrease from time to time in the amount of, and any payment and new incurrence from time to time of, the Secured Obligations or (iii) any exchange, insufficiency, unenforceability, enforcement, release, impairment, or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any release of or modifications to or other insufficiency, unenforceability or enforcement of the obligations of any obligor.

(b) Securities Collateral.

(i) Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Securities Collateral under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Securities Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private placement may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a sale without such restrictions (including an offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances and the registration rights granted to Agent by such Grantor pursuant hereto, each Grantor agrees that any such private placement shall not be deemed, in and of itself, to be commercially unreasonable solely because it is a private placement and that Agent shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Securities Collateral to be sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Agent all such information as Agent may request in order to determine the amount of Securities Collateral which may be sold by Agent in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

-22-

(ii) If Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Securities Collateral pursuant to this Section, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion) and subject to applicable securities laws, such Grantor will, at its own expense (A) execute and deliver, and cause or, to the extent such issuer is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use its best efforts to cause, each issuer of the Securities Collateral contemplated to be sold and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of Agent, advisable to register such Securities Collateral under the provisions of the Securities Act and to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto; (B) use its best efforts to qualify the Securities Collateral under all applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Securities Collateral, as reasonably requested by Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders); (C) cause each such issuer to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; (D) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of the Securities Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law; and (E) bear all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, of carrying out its obligations under this Section. Prior to a realization and re-registration contemplated by Section 9(d), the foregoing provisions shall not apply to ULC Shares.

(iii) Without limiting the generality of the indemnification and expense reimbursement provisions of the Credit Agreement, in the event of any registered offering described herein, each Grantor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Agent, and each Secured Party and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any loss, fee, cost, expense, damage, liability or claim, joint or several, to which any such Persons may become subject or for which any of them may be liable, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, fees, costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims (or any litigation commenced or threatened in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, registration statement, prospectus or other such document published or filed in connection with such registered offering, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse Agent and such other Persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Agent and such other Persons in connection with any litigation, of any nature whatsoever, commenced or threatened in respect thereof (including any and all fees, costs and expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred by Agent and such other Persons and counsel for Agent and other such Persons in investigating, preparing for, defending against or providing evidence, producing documents or taking any other action in respect of, any such commenced or threatened litigation or any claims asserted). This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability which any Grantor may otherwise have and shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to each Person, if any, that controls Agent or such Persons within the meaning of the Securities Act.

(b) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, shall no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment to Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property Collateral shall have been previously made, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, then upon the written request of any Grantor, Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor such assignments as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of all Liens other than Liens (if any) encumbering such rights, title and interest at the time of their assignment to Agent and Permitted Liens.

SECTION 19. Continuing Security Interest; Transfer of Loans; Termination and Release.

(a) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date, (ii) be binding upon Grantors and their respective successors and assigns, and (iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of Agent hereunder, to the benefit of Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns.

(b) On the Termination Date, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral not theretofore sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to the exercise of rights and remedies of the Agent hereunder or as otherwise contemplated hereby shall revert to the applicable Grantors. Upon any such termination Agent will, at Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to or at the direction of Grantors such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
