Section 2. Security for Obligations. (a) This Agreement secures, in the case of each Grantor, the payment of all Obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, the Secured Hedge Agreements and the Cash Management Obligations, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, premiums, penalties, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (all such Obligations being the “Secured Obligations”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures, as to each Grantor, the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by such Grantor to any Secured Party under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving a Loan Party. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement, and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, are subject to the provisions of that certain Intercreditor Agreement dated as of January 31, 2008 (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) among Citicorp USA, Inc., as Term Facility Collateral Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), Citicorp USA, Inc., as Term Facility Administrative Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), Citicorp USA, Inc., as Revolving Facility Collateral Agent and as Revolving Facility Administrative Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower and such other parties as may be added thereto Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
7
from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and as the Intercreditor Agreement may be amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof. As between (i) the lender parties under that certain Term Facility Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2008, among the Borrower, the Guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto, and Citicorp USA, Inc., as administrative agent, and (ii) the Lender Parties under the Credit Agreement, in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Section 3. Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in such Grantor’s 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 the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (c) no Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor shall any Secured Party 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. Section 4. Delivery and Control of Security Collateral. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement: (a) All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral (if certificated) shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; provided that no Grantor shall be required to deliver an instrument representing Pledged Debt if the principal amount of such Pledged Debt is less than $1,000,000. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. (b) With respect to any Security Collateral that constitutes an uncertificated security that is at any time subject to Article 8 of the UCC and is not held in a Securities Account, the relevant Grantor will cause, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each issuer thereof that is a Subsidiary of such Grantor to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Security Collateral in a form and substance that is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Collateral Agent (such agreement being an “Uncertificated Security Control Agreement”). (c) With respect to (i) the Securities Accounts and (ii) any Security Collateral that constitutes a security entitlement as to which the financial institution acting as Collateral Agent hereunder is not the securities intermediary, the relevant Grantor will cause the securities intermediary with respect to each such account or security entitlement either (A) to identify in its records the Collateral Agent as the entitlement holder thereof or (B) to agree with such Grantor and the Collateral Agent that such securities intermediary will comply with entitlement orders originated by the Collateral Agent without further consent of such Grantor, such agreement to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and Collateral Agent (a “Securities Account Control Agreement”); provided, however, that the Collateral Agent will (i) not give any such orders except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) upon cure (but not a partial cure) or waiver of any previously continuing Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall take such action, at the expense of such Grantor, as shall be reasonably Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
8
necessary to reconvey to such Grantor the right to give entitlement orders and instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities or securities intermediary. (d) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will notify each issuer of Securities Collateral (other than any other Loan Party) in which a security interest has been granted by it hereunder that such Securities Collateral is subject to the security interest granted hereunder. (e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4, so long as the Term Facility Collateral Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) is acting as bailee and as agent for perfection on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, any obligation of any Grantor in this Agreement that requires delivery of Collateral to, or the possession of Collateral with, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed complied with and satisfied in the event that such delivery of Collateral has been made to, or such possession of Collateral is with, the Term Facility Collateral Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). Section 5. Maintaining the Account Collateral. So long as any Secured Obligations shall remain outstanding or any Lender shall have any Commitment, subject to the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement: (a) Each Grantor will maintain Pledge Deposit Accounts only with the financial institution acting as Collateral Agent hereunder or with a bank (a “Pledged Account Bank”) that has agreed with such Grantor and the Collateral Agent to comply with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent directing the disposition of funds in such deposit account without the further consent of such Grantor, such agreement to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and Collateral Agent (each, a “Deposit Account Control Agreement”); provided, however, that this Section 5(a) shall not apply to an Excluded Account or where the Collateral Agent is the bank. So long as a Cash Control Trigger Event has not occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent agrees that (i) it shall not issue any instructions to any Pledged Account Bank or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Grantor with respect to funds from time to time credited to any deposit account and (ii) upon (x) cure (but not a partial cure) or waiver of any previously continuing Cash Control Trigger Event, the Collateral Agent shall thereafter take such action, at the expense of such Grantor, as shall be reasonably necessary to reconvey to such Grantor the right to give instructions directing the disposition of funds credited to any such deposit account. (b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Control Trigger Event, each Grantor will promptly instruct each Person (an “Obligor”) obligated at any time to make any payment to such Grantor for any reason with respect to the Revolving Facility First Lien Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) to make such payment to a Pledged Deposit Account or the Collateral Account, except that such Grantor shall not be under such obligation with respect to Persons (i) making payments to a Pledged Deposit Account or Collateral Account as of the date hereof, (ii) making payments to such Grantor less than $1,000,000 a year in the aggregate, or (iii) making payments to accounts not purported to be subject to the security interest of the Secured Parties in accordance with the Credit Agreement, if any. (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Control Trigger Event and upon written notice thereof from Collateral Agent to the Pledged Account Bank (the “Notice of Exclusive Control”), (i) all cash and Cash Equivalents in the Pledged Deposit Account shall be transferred to the Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
9
Collateral Account in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) all cash and Cash Equivalents in the Collateral Account shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. (d) If, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Control Trigger Event, any cash or Cash Equivalents owned by any Grantor (other than amounts on deposit in Excluded Accounts) with respect to Revolving First Lien Collateral are deposited to any account, or held or invested in any manner, other than in a Pledged Deposit Account or the Collateral Account, the Collateral Agent may require the applicable Grantor to close such account and have all funds therein transferred to a Pledged Deposit Account, and all future deposits made to a Pledged Deposit Account. In addition to the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall provide the Collateral Agent with an accounting of the contents in each Pledged Deposit Account, which shall identify, to the extent practical, the proceeds from the Term Facility First Lien Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) which were deposited in the Pledged Deposit Account and swept into the Collateral Account. Upon the receipt of the (y) contents of the Pledged Deposit Accounts, and (z) such accounting, the Collateral Agent agrees to remit to the collateral agent under the Term Facility the proceeds from the Term Facility First Lien Collateral received by the Collateral Agent. (e) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have delivered a Notice of Exclusive Control to a Pledged Account Bank at which a Pledged Deposit Account is held, and thereafter Availability exceeds $75,000,000 for thirty (30) consecutive days, the Collateral Agent, subject to no Event of Default existing at such time, shall deliver a written notice to such Pledged Account Bank rescinding the Notice of Exclusive Control previously delivered. (f) Upon any termination by a Grantor of any Pledged Deposit Account, such Grantor will immediately (i) transfer all funds and property held in such terminated Pledged Deposit Account to another Pledged Deposit Account or other account if a Deposit Account Control Agreement is entered into in respect of such other account or the Collateral Account and (ii) notify all Obligors that were making payments to such Pledged Deposit Account to make all future payments to another Pledged Deposit Account or other account if a Deposit Account Control Agreement is entered into in respect of such other account or the Collateral Account, in each case so that the Collateral Agent shall have a continuously perfected security interest in such Account Collateral, funds and property. Section 6. Investing of Amounts in the Collateral Account. The Collateral Agent will, subject to Sections 5, 7 and 21, from time to time (a) invest, or direct the applicable Pledged Account Bank to invest, amounts received with respect to the Collateral Account in such Cash Equivalents credited to the Collateral Account as the Borrower may select so long as no Cash Collateral Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing and the Collateral Agent may approve, and (b) invest interest paid on the Cash Equivalents referred to in clause (a) above, and reinvest other proceeds of any such Cash Equivalents that may mature or be sold, in each case in such Cash Equivalents credited in the same manner. Interest and proceeds that are not invested or reinvested in Cash Equivalents as provided above shall be deposited and held in the Collateral Account subject to Sections 5, 7 and 21. In addition, subject to Sections 5, 7 and 21, the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange, or direct the applicable Pledged Account Bank to exchange, such Cash Equivalents for similar Cash Equivalents of smaller or larger determinations, or for other Cash Equivalents, credited to the Collateral Account. Section 7. Release of Amounts. So long as no Cash Control Trigger Event shall have occurred and be continuing , the Grantors shall have the sole and exclusive right to direct the applicable Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
10
Pledged Account Bank to pay and release, to the applicable Grantor or at its order or, at the request of such Grantor, to the Administrative Agent to be applied to the Obligations of the Grantors under the Loan Documents, such amount, if any, as is then on deposit in the Collateral Account and the Pledged Deposit Accounts. Section 8. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and warrants as follows: (a) As of the Closing Date, such Grantor’s exact legal name, chief executive office, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization and organizational identification number is as set forth in Schedule V hereto.

(b) Each Grantor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent if such Grantor becomes aware (i) that any item of the Material Intellectual Property Collateral has become abandoned, placed in the public domain, invalid or unenforceable (other than as a result of the expiration of the statutory term for such Material Intellectual Property Collateral), or of any adverse determination or development regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any of the Material Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same to the extent the happening of such an event would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility of the Intellectual Property Collateral, or (ii) of any adverse determination (including, without limitation, the institution of any proceeding in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding any item of the Material Intellectual Property Collateral.

Section 18. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact (such appointment to cease upon the payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations), with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation: (a) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 11, (b) to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compromise, 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, indorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) or (b) above, and (d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement

Section 20. The Collateral Agent’s Duties. (a) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ 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 safe custody of any Collateral in its possession or in the possession of an Affiliate of the Collateral Agent or any designee (including without limitation, a Subagent) of the Collateral Agent acting on its behalf and the accounting for moneys actually received by it or its Affiliates hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent and any of its Affiliates or any designee (including without limitation, a Subagent) on its behalf shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession or in the possession of an Affiliate or any designee (including without limitation, a Subagent) on its behalf if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property. (b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent may from time to time, when the Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more subagents (each, a “Subagent”) for the Collateral Agent hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Collateral Agent so appoints any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security interest granted in such Collateral by each Grantor hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Security Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder and pursuant to the terms hereof, with respect to such Collateral, and (iii) the term “Collateral Agent,” when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent. Section 21. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may: (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
22 at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) 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 the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) to the extent permitted under such Grantor’s lease, occupy any premises where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; and (iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights of such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Account Collateral and (C) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten 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. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated 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. (b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and all cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 21) in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, in the following manner: (i) first, paid ratably to each Agent for any amounts then owing to such Agent pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement or otherwise under the Loan Documents; and (ii) second, ratably paid to the Lenders for any amounts then owing to them, in their capacities as such, in respect of the Obligations under the Revolving Facility ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then owing to such Lenders, (2) paid to each Lender Party (or its applicable Affiliate) for any amounts then owing to such Lender Party (or such Affiliate) in respect of Secured Credit Card Obligations in an aggregate amount for all such obligations not to exceed $25,000,000, (3) paid to each Lender Party (or its applicable Affiliate) for any amounts then owing to such Lender Party (or such Affiliate) in respect of Secured Hedge Agreements in an aggregate amount for all such obligations not to exceed the sum of $100,000,000 plus the unused amount, if any, under the foregoing clause (2) and Cash Management Obligations in an aggregate amount for all such obligations not to exceed the sum of $25,000,000 and (4) deposited as Collateral in the L/C Cash Collateral Account up to an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate Available Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, provided that in the event that any such Letter of Credit is drawn, the Collateral Agent shall pay to the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit the amount held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account in respect of such Letter of Credit, provided further that, to the extent that any Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
23 such Letter of Credit shall expire or terminate undrawn and as a result thereof the amount of the Collateral in the L/C Cash Collateral Account shall exceed 105% of the aggregate Available Amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit, such excess amount of such Collateral shall be applied in accordance with the remaining order of priority set out in this Section 21. (iii) third, ratably to each Lender Party (or its applicable Affiliate) for any amounts then owing to such Lender Party (or such Affiliate), to the extent not included in clause (ii) above, in respect of all remaining Cash Management Obligations, obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Credit Card Obligations. (c) Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by or on the behalf of the Collateral Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the Secured Obligations shall be distributed pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Intercreditor Agreement. (d) All payments received by any Grantor under or in connection with the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement). (e) The Collateral Agent may, without notice to any Grantor except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Account Collateral or in any other deposit account. (f) The Collateral Agent may send to each bank, securities intermediary or issuer party to any Deposit Account Control Agreement, Securities Account Control Agreement or Uncertificated Security Control Agreement a “Notice of Exclusive Control” as may be defined in and under such Agreement. (g) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral of any Grantor, the goodwill symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such sale or other disposition shall be included therein, and such Grantor shall supply to the Collateral Agent or its designee such Grantor’s know-how and expertise, and documents and things relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of such Grantor. (h) The Collateral Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Security Collateral pursuant to this Section 21, to deliver or otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Security Collateral any information in its possession relating to such Security Collateral. Section 22. Maintenance of Records. Each Grantor will keep and maintain, at its own cost and expense, satisfactory and complete records of the Collateral, in all material respects, including, without limitation, a record of all payments received and all credits granted with respect to the Collateral and all other material dealings concerning the Collateral. For the Collateral Agent’s further security, each Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have a property interest in all of such Grantor’s books and records pertaining to the Collateral and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Xxxx — Revolving Facility Security Agreement
24 Default, such Grantor shall deliver and turn over any such books and records to the Collateral Agent or to its representatives at any time on demand of the Collateral Agent. Section 23. Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Each Grantor severally agrees (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Secured Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”), pro rata, from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceedings or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) this Agreement, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct of its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, advisors or agents. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 23(a) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Grantor, its directors, shareholders or creditors or any Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the Transaction is consummated. The Grantors also agree not to assert any claim against the Collateral Agent, any Secured Party or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the this Agreement. (b) Each Grantor agrees to pay (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) within 30 days of demand (i) all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of, any consent or waiver under, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and (ii) all reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent in connection with the enforcement of (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) the Agreement.

Each Grantor will not create, permit or suffer to exist, and will defend the Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a) of the Credit Agreement and will defend the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent in and to all of such Grantor’s rights under the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever other than claims or demands arising out of Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a) of the Credit Agreement. Section 25. Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors; Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each Grantor and the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Dana — Revolving Facility Security Agreement

Section 26. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopier or other electronic transmission) and mailed, telecopied or otherwise delivered, in accordance with the Credit Agreement, or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), subject to Section 10.07 of the Credit Agreement, any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to any Eligible Assignee, and such Eligible Assignee shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 10.07 of the Credit Agreement.

(a) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent will, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; provided, however, that, except as permitted under Section 5.02(g) of the Credit Agreement, (i) at the time of such request and such release no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release in reasonable detail describing the item of Collateral, together with a form of release for execution by the Collateral Agent and a certificate of such Grantor to the effect that the transaction is in compliance with the Loan Documents; (iii) the proceeds of any such sale, lease, transfer or other disposition required to be applied, or any payment to be made in connection therewith, in accordance with Section 2.06 of the Credit Agreement shall, to the extent so required, be paid or made to, or in accordance with the instructions of, the Collateral Agent when and as required under Section 2.06 of the Credit Agreement, and (iv) in the case of Collateral sold or disposed of, the release of a Lien created hereby will not be effective until the receipt by the Collateral Agent of the Net Cash Proceeds arising from the sale or disposition of such Collateral.

26 Termination Date and (iii) the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit, the pledge and security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Grantor. Upon any such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the applicable Grantor’s expense, approve, execute, assign, transfer and/or deliver to such Grantor such documents and instruments (including, but not limited to UCC termination financing statements or releases) as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

The parties hereto agree that each Mexican Depository may from time to time in the ordinary course of business receive and maintain possession of the Mexican Collateral for the purpose of manufacturing finished products for sale by such Grantor and shall act as depository for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, with respect to such Mexican Collateral, which shall at all times remain subject to the first priority Lien and security interest created hereunder. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that each Mexican Depository shall hold any and all Mexican Collateral in its control or possession for the benefit of Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and that each Mexican Depository shall act upon the instructions of the Collateral Agent without the further consent of such Grantor. The Collateral Agent agrees with the Grantors that it shall not give any such instructions unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by any Grantor with respect to any Mexican Depository. (c) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, without the consent of any Grantor, to remove any Mexican Depository as depository and appoint a different depository. No Mexican Depository shall be released from its obligations hereunder, unless a replacement depository has been appointed in accordance with this Agreement and such replacement depository has assumed the obligations of such Mexican Depository hereunder, including without limitation, taking physical possession of the Mexican Collateral and executing the letter referred to in subsection (d) below. (d) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, a letter from each Mexican Depository or any other entity acting as depository, acceptable to the Collateral Agent in substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto.
