The term “Copyrights” means, collectively, (a) the copyrights and all other rights in and to the works identified in Part I of Schedule I attached hereto, (b) the copyrights and all other rights in and to the copyrighted or copyrightable works identified in Part II of Schedule I attached hereto, (c) the copyrights and all other rights in and to all other copyrighted or copyrightable works of the Grantor now or hereafter existing or now owned or hereafter acquired, whether or not identified by a title and/or United States Copyright Office registration number, whether or not identified on Schedule I attached hereto, and whether or not registered with the United States Copyright Office, and (d) all proceeds from the sale, exchange, license, lease or other transfer or disposition or collection of any of the foregoing (in whole or in part) or of any right or interest therein, and all proceeds or other value received and attributable (in whole or in part) to the ownership, possession or use of any of the foregoing (including without limitation any amounts recovered or recoverable on account of any infringement or misappropriation thereof).
SECTION 2. Grant of Security Interest in Copyright Collateral. The Grantor hereby pledges, collaterally assigns and grants to the Lender to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations, a security interest (referred to in this Copyright Security Agreement as the “Security Interest”) in all of the Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (collectively, the “Copyright Collateral”):

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure to so modify this Copyright Security Agreement or amend Schedule I shall in any way affect, invalidate or detract from the Lender’s continuing security interest in all Collateral (including the Copyright Collateral), whether or not listed on Schedule I.
SECTION 6. Counterparts. This Copyright Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any party here to may execute this Copyright Security Agreement by signing and delivering one or more counterparts.
