(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.1, but subject to Section 3.1(d), this Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (i) any property to the extent that (and only for so long as) such grant of a security interest is expressly prohibited by

10

any applicable law, (ii) accounts receivable from Customers to the extent that (and only for so long as) such grant of a security interest is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or requires any consent not obtained under, any express provision of any contract, agreement or instrument between a LDC or an EDC and one or more Grantors and (iii) any contract between a LDC or EDC and one or more Grantors which has express provisions which prohibit grants of security interests in such contract unless an exception to such prohibition is applicable to the security interest granted by this Agreement (unless in any such case and to the extent such applicable law or such relevant express provision in such contract, agreement, instrument providing for such prohibition, breach, default or termination or requiring such consent is ineffective under applicable law).  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3.1(b) is not applicable to accounts receivable due from a LDC or an EDC to one or more Grantors.

(c) Each Grantor hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consent not obtained under, or to seek an amendment to, any contract, agreement, instrument or other document in order to permit the grant of a security interest to the Secured Party (or its agents) in any property affected by Section 3.1(b).

(d) Section 3.1(b) shall not be deemed effective to the extent that Section 9-406, Section 9-407 or Section 9-408 of the UCC would in any instance render the limitations set forth in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 3.1(b) ineffective.

3.2 Collateral Assignment of Rights under the Contracts.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Secured Party or its agents, in their sole discretion, to assert, either directly or on behalf of any Grantor, at any time that a Default or Potential Termination Event is in existence, any claims any Grantor may from time to time have against the counterparties or any of their affiliates with respect to any and all of the Contract Rights or with respect to any and all payments or other obligations due from the counterparties or any of their affiliates to any Grantor under or pursuant to the Contracts (“Payments”), and to receive and collect any damages, awards and other monies resulting therefrom and to apply the same on account of the ISDA Obligations in accordance with Section 6.5 hereof. After the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Potential Termination Event, the Secured Party may provide notice to the counterparties or any of their Affiliates under any Contract that all Payments shall be made to or at the direction of the Secured Party for so long as such Default or Potential Termination Event shall be continuing. Following the delivery of any such notice, the Secured Party shall promptly notify the counterparties under such Contract upon the termination or waiver of any such Default or Potential Termination Event and the Secured Party shall promptly deliver to Holdings any Payments it receives after such termination or waiver and prior to notifying the counterparties thereto. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Secured Party (and all officers, employees, or agents designated by the Secured Party) as such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) for the purpose of enabling the Secured Party or its agents to assert and collect such claims and to apply such monies in the manner set forth hereinabove.  Such appointment shall become effective upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Potential Termination Event and, if the ISDA Documents are terminated following an Event of Default or a Termination Event, such appointment shall continue thereafter.

4.7 Investment Property.  (a) Except as set forth on Schedule 2, the Pledged Equity pledged by each Grantor hereunder constitutes all the issued and outstanding equity interests of each Issuer owned by such Grantor or, in the case of any foreign Subsidiary, 65% of all issued and outstanding equity interests of such foreign Subsidiary.

(b) All of the Pledged Equity has been duly and validly issued and, to the extent applicable, is fully paid and nonassessable.

5.1 Delivery of Instruments, Certificated Securities and Chattel Paper.  If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral in excess of $100,000 (in the aggregate for all Grantors) shall be or become evidenced by any Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper, such Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper shall be promptly delivered to the Secured Party, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Secured Party, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that a Default or Potential Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the request of the Secured Party, any Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper not theretofore delivered to the Secured Party and at such time being held by any Grantor shall be promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) delivered to the Secured Party, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Secured Party, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement.

5.2 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation.  (a) Such Grantor shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected security interest having at least the priority described in Section 4.3 and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

14

other reports in connection therewith as the Secured Party may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Secured Party, and at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Secured Party may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including (i) filing any financing or continuation statements under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interests created hereby and (ii) in the case of Investment Property and any other relevant Collateral, taking any actions necessary to enable the Secured Party to obtain “control” (within the meaning of the applicable UCC) with respect thereto and (iii) during the continuance of a Default or Potential Termination Event, if requested by the Secured Party, delivering, to the extent permitted by law, any original motor vehicle certificates of title received by such Grantor from the applicable secretary of state or other governmental authority after information reflecting the Secured Party’s security interest has been recorded therein.

5.3 Changes in Locations, Name, etc.  Such Grantor shall not, except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Secured Party and delivery to the Secured Party of (a) all additional executed financing statements and other documents reasonably requested by the Secured Party as to the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for herein and (b) if applicable, a written supplement to Schedule 4 showing any additional location at which Inventory or Equipment shall be kept:

(i) permit any of the Inventory or Equipment to be kept at a location other than those listed on Schedule 4; provided, that up to $100,000 (in the aggregate for all Grantors) in fair market value of any such Inventory and Equipment may be kept at other locations;

(a) any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of the Collateral which would adversely affect the ability of the Secured Party to exercise any of its remedies hereunder; and

(b) the occurrence of any other event which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the Collateral or on the Liens created hereby.

5.5 Investment Property.  (a) If such Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate, option or rights in respect of the equity interests of any Issuer, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any of the Pledged Equity,

15

or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of the Secured Party, hold the same in trust for the Secured Party and deliver the same forthwith to the Secured Party in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Secured Party, if required, together with an undated instrument of transfer covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if the Secured Party so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by the Secured Party, subject to the terms hereof, as additional Collateral for the ISDA Obligations.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, such Grantor will not (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any Issuer to issue any equity interests of any nature or to issue any other securities or interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any equity interests of any nature of any Issuer, except, in each case, as permitted by the Master ISDAs, (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof (except pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by the Master ISDAs) other than, with respect to Investment Property not constituting Pledged Equity or Pledged Notes, any such action which is not prohibited by the Master ISDAs, (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for Permitted Liens, or (iv) enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or the Secured Party to sell, assign or transfer any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, except, with respect to such Investment Property, shareholders’ agreements entered into by such Grantor with respect to Persons in which such Grantor maintains an ownership interest of 50% or less.

(c) In the case of each Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Investment Property issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it, (ii) it will notify the Secured Party promptly in writing of the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 5.5(a) with respect to the Investment Property issued by it and (iii) the terms of Sections 6.3(c) and 6.7 shall apply to such Grantor with respect to all actions that may be required of it pursuant to Section 6.3(c) or 6.7 regarding the Investment Property issued by it.

16

grant any extension of the time of payment of any Receivable other than extensions which such Grantor deems reasonable and consistent with prudent business practice, (ii) compromise or settle any Receivable for less than the full amount thereof, (iii) release, wholly or partially, any Person liable for the payment of any Receivable, (iv) allow any credit or discount whatsoever on any Receivable or (v) amend, supplement or modify any Receivable in any manner that could adversely affect the value thereof.

5.7 Intellectual Property.  (a) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will (i) continue to use each Trademark material to its business in order to maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain as in the past the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark, (iii) use such Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable law, (iv) not adopt or use any xxxx which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark unless the Secured Party shall obtain a perfected security interest in such xxxx pursuant to this Agreement, and (v) not (and not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such Trademark may become invalidated or impaired in any way except, in the case of each of clauses (i) through (v) of this Section 5.7(a), to the extent that it could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any Patent material to its business may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public.

(c) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) (i) will employ each Copyright material to its business and (ii) will not (and will not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any material portion of such Copyrights may become invalidated or otherwise impaired.

(d) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act that knowingly infringes the intellectual property rights of any other Person.

(e) Such Grantor will notify the Secured Party promptly if it knows that any application or registration relating to any material Intellectual Property owned by a Grantor or material to a Grantor’s business may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding, such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any material Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same.

17

(f) Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report such filing to the Secured Party concurrently with the next delivery of financial statements of the applicable MX Company pursuant to Part 12 of the Schedules to the Master ISDAs. Upon the request of the Secured Party, such Grantor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Secured Party may request to evidence the Secured Party’s security interest in any Copyright, Patent or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(g) Such Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each registration of all material Intellectual Property owned by it.

(h) In the event that any material Intellectual Property owned by a Grantor or material to a Grantor’s business is infringed upon or misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall (i) take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such Intellectual Property is of material economic value, promptly notify the Secured Party after it learns thereof and, to the extent, in its reasonable judgment, such Grantor determines it appropriate under the circumstances, xxx for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution.  If Grantor fails to take action under clause (i) or (ii) for one hundred twenty (120) days after Grantor becomes aware of such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, the Secured Party is hereby authorized to take action on behalf of the Grantor to the extent the infringement, misappropriation or dilution would have an adverse effect on the Secured Party or the Secured Party’s interests in the Collateral hereunder.

5.8 Counterparty Undertakings.

(a) Each Grantor shall keep the Secured Party informed of all circumstances bearing upon any material potential claim under or with respect to the Material Contracts and the Counterparty Undertakings and such Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, (i) waive any of its rights or remedies under any Material Contract with respect to any of the Counterparty Undertakings in excess of $100,000, (ii) settle, compromise or offset any amount payable by the counterparties to such Grantor under any Material Contract in excess of $100,000 or (iii) amend or otherwise modify any Material Contract in any manner which is adverse to the interests of the Secured Party.

(b) Each Grantor shall perform and observe all the terms and conditions of each Material Contract to be performed by it, maintain each Material Contract in full force and effect, enforce in all material respects each Material Contract in accordance with its terms and take all such action to such end as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the Secured Party, except where the Grantor demonstrates that the failure to do so would not result in a loss or losses to such Grantor or an impairment to the value of the Collateral that in the aggregate exceeds $3,500,000; provided that the foregoing exception shall not apply to any Material

18

Contract that is necessary for the conduct of the business of the Grantors taken as a whole as contemplated by the ISDA Documents.

5.9 Depositary and Other Deposit Accounts.  No Grantor shall open new depositary or other deposit accounts unless such Grantor shall have received the Secured Party’s prior written consent to open any such new deposit accounts. The Grantors shall deliver to the Secured Party a revised version of Schedule 6 showing any changes thereto within 5 days of any such change. Each Grantor hereby authorizes the financial institutions at which such Grantor maintains a deposit account to provide the Secured Party with such information with respect to such deposit account as the Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request, and each Grantor hereby consents to such information being provided to the Secured Party. Each Grantor will, upon the Secured Party’s request, cause each financial institution at which such Grantor maintains a depositary or other deposit account to enter into a bank agency or other similar agreement with the Secured Party and such Grantor, in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party, in order to give the Secured Party “control” (as defined in the UCC) of such account. Each Grantor shall direct all Account Debtors to make all payments on the Accounts directly to a Lockbox Account designated by the Secured Party in its sole discretion. If any Grantor or any director, officer, employee, agent of such Grantor, or any other Person acting for or in concert with such Grantor shall receive any monies, checks, notes, drafts or other payments relating to or as proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral, such Grantor and each such Person shall receive all such items in trust for, and as the sole and exclusive property of, the Secured Party and, promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) upon receipt thereof, shall remit the same (or cause the same to be remitted) in kind to a Lockbox Account designated by the Secured Party in its sole discretion, subject to any rights of the MX Companies to use such proceeds pursuant to the Master ISDAs. The Grantors, jointly and severally, agree to pay all fees, costs and expenses in connection with opening and maintaining each Account, control agreements with respect thereto, and depositing for collection by the Secured Party any check or other item of payment received by the Secured Party on account of the ISDA Obligations. All of such fees, costs and expenses shall constitute ISDA Obligations hereunder and shall be payable to the Secured Party by the Grantors upon demand. All checks, drafts, instruments and other items of payment or proceeds of Collateral shall be endorsed by the applicable Grantor to the Secured Party, and, if that endorsement of any such item shall not be made for any reason, the Secured Party is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse the same on such Grantor’s behalf for the purpose of this section, each Grantor irrevocably hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Secured Party (and all Persons designated by the Secured Party for that purpose) as such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact (a) to endorse such Grantor’s name upon said items of payment and/or proceeds of Collateral and upon any Chattel Paper, document, Instrument, invoice or similar document or agreement relating to any Account of such Grantor or

19

goods pertaining thereto; (b) to take control in any manner of any item of payment or proceeds thereof; and (c) while a Default or Potential Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, to have access to any lock box or postal box into which any of such Grantor’s mail is deposited, and open and process all mail addressed to the such Grantor and deposited therein. All amounts received in any Lockbox Account shall be swept at the end of each day to the applicable Party A Sub Account until the Discharge of ISDA Obligations.  In no event shall any amount be applied unless and until such amount shall have been credited in immediately available funds to the applicable Party A Sub Account or applicable Operating Account with the applicable Master ISDA.

5.10 Other Matters.

(a) If any Grantor shall cause to be delivered Inventory or other property in excess of $100,000 in fair market value to any bailee after the Closing Date, such Grantor shall use reasonable efforts to cause such bailee to sign a Collateral Access Agreement. Such requirement may be waived at the option of the Secured Party.  If any Grantor shall lease any real property or facilities and the value of property of such Grantor located at such leased real property is in excess of $100,000 in fair market value after the Closing Date, such Grantor shall use reasonable efforts to cause the landlord in respect of such leased property or facilities to sign a Collateral Access Agreement.  Such requirement may be waived at the option of the Secured Party.

(b) Each Grantor authorizes the Secured Party to, at any time and from time to time, file financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral as “all assets” of each Grantor, or words of similar effect, and which contain any other information required pursuant to the UCC for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, and each Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to the Secured Party promptly upon request. Any such financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment may be signed by the Secured Party on behalf of any Grantor and may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Grantor shall, at any time and from time to time, take such steps as the Secured Party may reasonably request for the Secured Party (i) to obtain an acknowledgement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party, of any bailee having possession of any of the Collateral, stating that the bailee holds such Collateral for the Secured Party, (ii) to obtain “control” of any letter-of-credit rights, or electronic chattel paper (as such terms are defined by the UCC with corresponding provisions thereof defining what constitutes “control” for such items of Collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party, and (iii) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and priority of the Secured Party’s security interest in any of the Collateral and of the preservation of its rights therein. If any Grantor shall at any time, acquire a “commercial tort claim” (as such term is defined in the UCC) in excess of $100,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Secured Party thereof in writing and supplement Schedule 7, therein providing a reasonable description and summary thereof, and upon delivery thereof to the Secured Party, such Grantor shall be deemed to thereby grant to the Secured Party (and such Grantor hereby grants to the Secured Party) a security interest and lien in and to such commercial tort claim and all proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of and governed by this Agreement.

20

(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Grantor at any time holds or acquires an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record”, as that term is defined in Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Secured Party thereof and, at the request of the Secured Party, shall take such action as the Secured Party may reasonably request to vest in the Secured Party “control” under Section 9-105 of the UCC of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Secured Party agrees with the Grantors that the Secured Party will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Secured Party and so long as such procedures will not result in the Secured Party’s loss of control, for the Grantors to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to make without loss of control, unless a Potential Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by any Grantor with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

Section 6 Remedial Provisions.

6.1 Certain Matters Relating to Receivables.  (a) Each Grantor shall keep proper books and records in which full, true and correct entries are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities in accordance with GAAP.  Each Grantor shall permit the Secured Party or any representative thereof, upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine, audit and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested.  At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Potential Termination Event, upon the Secured Party’s request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall use reasonable efforts to cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Secured Party to furnish to the Secured Party reports showing reconciliations and verifications of the Receivables.

(b) The Secured Party hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Receivables, subject to Section 5.9, and the Secured Party may curtail or terminate such authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Potential Termination Event. If required by the Secured Party at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a Termination Event, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two (2) Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Secured Party if required, in a Lockbox Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Secured Party, subject to withdrawal by the Secured Party as provided in Section 6.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Party, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

21

(c) At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Potential Termination Event, at the Secured Party’s request, each Grantor shall deliver to the Secured Party all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables, including all original orders, invoices and receipts.

(d) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Secured Party, in the Secured Party’s sole discretion, at any time that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a Termination Event and after the Secured Party has provided such Grantor with three (3) Business Days’ prior notice, to assert, either directly or on behalf of such Grantor, any claim such Grantor may from time to time have against the counterparties under or with respect to the Contracts and to receive and collect any and all damages, awards and other monies resulting therefrom and to apply the same to the ISDA Obligations. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Secured Party as its true and lawful attorney in fact for the purpose of enabling the Secured Party to assert and collect such claims and to apply such monies in the manner set forth above, which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable.

6.2 Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable.  (a) The Secured Party in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Potential Termination Event and after the Secured Party has provided such Grantor with three (3) Business Days’ prior notice communicate with obligors under the Receivables to verify with them to the Secured Party’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables.

(b) Upon the request of the Secured Party at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Potential Termination Event, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Receivables that the Receivables have been assigned to the Secured Party and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Secured Party.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable in respect of each of the Receivables to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. The Secured Party shall not have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(d) For the purpose of enabling the Secured Party to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Potential Termination Event, each Grantor hereby grants to the Secured Party an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use,

22

license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

6.3 Investment Property.  (a) Unless an Event of Default or a Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and the Secured Party shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Secured Party’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends and distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Equity and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, to the extent permitted in the Master ISDAs, and to exercise all voting and other rights with respect to the Investment Property; provided, that no vote shall be cast or other right exercised or action taken which could impair the Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the ISDA Documents or any other Related Agreement.

(b) If a Default or Potential Termination Event shall occur and be continuing and the Secured Party shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Secured Party shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends and distributions, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property and make application thereof to the ISDA Obligations in accordance with Section 6.5 hereof, and (ii) any or all of the Investment Property shall be registered in the name of the Secured Party or its nominee, and the Secured Party or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of holders of the equity interests of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Secured Party of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Secured Party may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Secured Party shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder over which it has control or the ability to influence to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Secured Party in writing that (x) states that a Default or Potential Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends, distributions or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Secured Party.

6.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over to the Secured Party.  In addition to the rights of the Secured Party specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, if a Default or

23

Potential Termination Event shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other cash equivalent items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Party, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Secured Party in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Secured Party, if required). All Proceeds received by the Secured Party hereunder shall be held by the Secured Party in a collateral account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds, while held by the Secured Party in any collateral account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Party) established pursuant hereto, shall continue to be held as collateral security for the ISDA Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.5.

6.5 Application of Proceeds.  At such intervals as may be agreed upon by the applicable MX Company and the Secured Party, or, if a Default or Potential Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Secured Party’s election, the Secured Party may apply all or any part of Proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral in payment of the ISDA Obligations in such order as the Secured Party shall determine in its discretion. Any part of such funds which the Secured Party elects not so to apply and deems not required as collateral security for the ISDA Obligations shall be paid over from time to time by the Secured Party to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Any balance of such Proceeds remaining after the Discharge of ISDA Obligations shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. In the absence of a specific determination by the Secured Party, the Proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral in payment of the ISDA Obligations shall be applied in the following order:

FIRST, to the payment of all fees, costs, expenses and indemnities of the Secured Party and any other ISDA Obligations owing to the Secured Party in respect of sums advanced by the Secured Party to preserve the Collateral or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral, until paid in full;

SECOND, to the payment of all of the ISDA Obligations including accrued and unpaid interest owing to the Secured Party until paid in full; and

THIRD, to the payment of any remaining Proceeds, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such amounts.

6.6 Code and Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default or a Termination Event shall occur and be continuing, the Secured Party may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the ISDA Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Party, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive,

24

appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery with assumption of any credit risk. The Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Secured Party’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at places which the Secured Party shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere.  The Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the ISDA Obligations, in accordance with Section 6.5 hereof, and only after such application and after the payment by the Secured Party of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Secured Party account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Private Sales of Pledged Equity.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Equity, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Equity for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities or other interests for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Equity pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby

25

waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Default or Potential Termination Event has occurred under the Master ISDAs.

6.8 Waiver; Deficiency.  Each Grantor waives and agrees not to assert any rights or privileges which it may acquire under Section 9-626 of the UCC. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the ISDA Obligations in full and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

6.9 Collateral Access.  The Secured Party shall be granted access to the Grantors’ records and xxxxxxxx systems and shall be granted, at the Grantors’ expense, licenses (including software updates) to allow the Secured Party to realize the value of all Contracts.  In no event shall the Secured Party disclose to any third parties any of the Grantors’ technology infrastructure without the written consent of the applicable Grantor.

Section 7 Secured Party.

7.1 Secured Party’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.  (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right, on behalf of and at the expense of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured Party for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Secured Party may request to evidence the Secured Party’s security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iii) discharge Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, and effect any repairs or insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

26

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6 or 6.7, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Secured Party or as the Secured Party shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (3) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Secured Party may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark, throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Secured Party shall in its sole discretion determine; (8) vote any right or interest with respect to any Investment Property; (9) order good standing certificates and conduct lien searches in respect of such jurisdictions or offices as the Secured Party may deem appropriate; and (10) generally sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Secured Party’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party’s security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Secured Party agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless a Potential Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing.

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

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

7.2 Duty of Secured Party.  The Secured Party’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Secured Party deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be

27

liable for any failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Party’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder.

If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, each Grantor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. All obligations provided for in this Section 8.3 shall survive the Discharge of ISDA Obligations.

8.4 Enforcement Expenses.  (a) Each Grantor agrees, on a joint and several basis, to pay or reimburse on demand the Secured Party for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Legal Costs of counsel for the Secured Party) incurred in collecting against

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Party, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

8.7 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement.

8.11 Governing Law.  THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS AGREEMENT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, CONFLICTS OF LAW, OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1402 AND SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

8.12 Consent to Arbitration.

(a) Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this contract, or the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be finally settled by arbitration.  The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as they may be modified herein or by mutual agreement of the parties.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.14, the arbitration and this clause shall be governed by Title 9 (Arbitration) of the United States Code.  The seat of the arbitration shall be New York, New York, United States of America, and it shall be conducted in the English language.  The parties submit to jurisdiction in the state and federal courts in the State, County and City of New York for the limited purpose of enforcing this agreement to arbitrate.

(b) The arbitration shall be conducted by three neutral arbitrators, who shall be appointed by the AAA.  The arbitrators shall be impartial and independent.

(c) In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes, and upon request of any party to the arbitration proceeding, the arbitration tribunal may consolidate the arbitration proceeding with any other arbitration proceeding involving any of the parties hereto relating to this Agreement or to the other Related Agreements (whether or not such other proceeding involves all of the parties hereto).  The arbitration tribunal shall not consolidate such arbitrations unless it determines that (i) there are issues of fact or law common to the various arbitrations so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings and (ii) no party would be prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise.  In the event of different rulings on this question by the arbitration tribunal constituted hereunder and the tribunal constituted under any other Related Agreement, the ruling of the arbitration tribunal governing the first proceeding to have been filed shall control.  In the event of the consolidation of one or more proceedings pursuant to this subsection, the arbitration tribunal governing the first such proceeding to have been filed shall govern the consolidated proceeding unless otherwise agreed by all parties to the proceedings being consolidated.  Solely for purposes of this subsection (c), (i) a proceeding shall be deemed to have been filed when the related demand for arbitration is served by the complaining party and (ii) in the event that two proceedings shall have been filed on the same day, the proceeding involving the largest dollar amount in dispute shall be deemed to have been the first filed.

(d) The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties.  Judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets.

8.13 Waiver of Certain Damages.  NO PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO ANY RECOVERY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR OTHER BUSINESS INTERRUPTION DAMAGES.  THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

8.14 Set-off.  Each Grantor agrees that the Secured Party has all rights of set-off and bankers’ lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, each Grantor agrees that at any time a Default or Potential Termination Event exists, the Secured Party may apply to the payment of any ISDA Obligations, whether or not then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Grantor then or thereafter with the Secured Party.

8.15 Certain Understandings.  Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that the Secured Party will engage in transactions with Holdings and its Subsidiaries pursuant to the Master ISDAs.  Neither this Agreement nor the Master ISDAs shall preclude the Secured Party from engaging in transactions of a nature like the transactions contemplated by the Master ISDAs with any other Person.  Without limiting the foregoing, each party acknowledges that the Secured Party is engaged in, among other things, dealing in fuel, and power and related commodities for its own account in the U.S. wholesale fuel and power markets, and manages positions in fuel and power and related commodities for others.  The Secured Party may (i) take actions under the Master ISDAs that may be different than the actions the Secured Party takes for its own account or for the account of others, even though the circumstances may be the same or similar and (ii) effect transactions with counterparties that are also counterparties to other transactions in fuel and/or power or related commodities with the Secured Party or for which the Secured Party is acting in an agency capacity.  The Secured Party and/or its Affiliates may from time to time take proprietary positions and/or make a market in commodities and/or instruments identical or economically related to the transactions contemplated by the Master ISDAs, or may have an investment banking or other commercial relationship with and access to information from the issuer(s) of financial instruments or other interests underlying such transactions during the term of the Master ISDAs.  The Secured Party and/or its Affiliates may also undertake lawful proprietary activities, including hedging transactions related to the initiation or termination of a transaction, that may adversely affect the market price, rate, index or other market factor(s) underlying the transactions contemplated by the Master ISDAs and consequently the value of the transactions contemplated by the Master ISDAs.  The parties acknowledge that the relationship between the Secured Party and Holdings and its Subsidiaries is a commercial and not a fiduciary relationship and that neither the Master ISDAs nor this Agreement shall limit in any manner the ability of the Secured Party to enter into any transaction of any nature with any other Person.

8.16 Acknowledgements.  Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that:

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

8.17 Additional Grantors.  Each Person that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant the Master ISDAs or otherwise shall become a Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Person of a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Joinder.

8.18 Releases.  (a) Upon the Discharge of ISDA Obligations, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Secured Party and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Secured Party shall deliver to the Grantors any Collateral held by the Secured Party hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Grantors such documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination and release.

(b) If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the ISDA Documents, then the Secured Party, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the MX Companies, a Subsidiary Grantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the equity interests of such Subsidiary Grantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the ISDA Documents and the other Related Agreements; provided, that the relevant MX Company shall have delivered to the Secured Party, with reasonable notice prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Subsidiary Grantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by such MX Company stating that such transaction is in compliance with the ISDA Documents and the other Related Agreements.

(c) Promptly following the consummation of a merger that does not constitute a Default or Potential Termination Event under Section 5 of the Master ISDAs, the Secured Party shall deliver to the Grantor surviving any such merger, the certificate or certificates (if any) evidencing the Pledged Equity of the non-surviving Grantor of such merger.

8.19 Obligations and Liens Absolute and Unconditional.  Each Grantor understands and agrees that the obligations of each Grantor under this Agreement shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of any ISDA Document, any of the ISDA Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guaranty or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Grantor or any other Person against the Secured Party, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Grantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Grantor for the ISDA Obligations, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Grantor, the Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any other Grantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guaranty for

32

the ISDA Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any other Grantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guaranty or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any other Grantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guaranty or right of offset, shall not relieve any Grantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Secured Party against any Grantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

8.20 Termination; Reinstatement.  This Agreement shall terminate, subject to reinstatement in accordance with this Section 8.20, upon the Discharge of ISDA Obligations.  This Agreement will be reinstated if at any time any payment or distribution in respect of any of the ISDA Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise by any holder of ISDA Obligations or any representative of any such party (whether by demand, settlement, litigation or otherwise).  In the event that any representative or any holder of any ISDA Obligation recovers all or any part of a payment or distribution made with respect to an ISDA Obligation in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, such representative or holder, as the case may be, will forthwith deliver the same to the Secured Party on behalf of the holders of an ISDA Obligation, for the account of the such holders of an ISDA Obligation, to be applied in accordance with Section 4.1 of the Intercreditor Agreement.  Until so delivered, such proceeds will be held by the representative or holder who received such proceeds, for the benefit of the holders of an ISDA Obligation.
