Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 2.01 is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC and is governed by Article 8 of the UCC, such interest shall be represented by a certificate. Each Grantor further acknowledges and agrees that with respect to any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled on or after the
11
date hereof by such Grantor and pledged hereunder that is not a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, such Grantor shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate, unless such election and such interest is thereafter represented by a certificate that is promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 2.05. Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall give the Borrower notice of its intent to exercise such rights, (a) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause each of the Pledged Securities to be transferred of record into the name of the Collateral Agent or into the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent) and (b) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Securities for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Bankruptcy Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to give the notice referred to above in order to exercise the rights described above. Each Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any material notices received by it with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Grantor. Each Grantor will take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to facilitate compliance with this Section.
Section 2.06. Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest. (a) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have notified the Borrower that the rights of the Grantors under this Section 2.06 are being suspended:
(i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents; provided that such rights and powers shall not be exercised in any manner that could materially and adversely affect the rights inuring to a holder of any Pledged Securities or the rights and remedies of any of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or the ability of the Secured Parties to exercise the same.
(ii) The Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request in writing for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i), in each case as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
12
(iii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities, to the extent (and only to the extent) that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and applicable laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Equity or Pledged Debt, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly deliver to each Grantor any Pledged Securities in its possession if requested to be delivered to the issuer thereof in connection with any exchange or redemption of such Pledged Securities.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent shall have notified the Borrower of the suspension of the rights of the Grantors under Section 2.06(a)(iii), then all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(iii) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 2.06 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property, shall be held as security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.02. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and, other than in the case of a waiver of which the Collateral Agent is aware, the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate to such effect, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of Section 2.06(a)(iii) in the absence of an Event of Default and that remain in such account.
13
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent shall have notified the Borrower of the suspension of the rights of the Grantors under Section 2.06(a)(i), then all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i), and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under Section 2.06(a)(ii), shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become, subject to the rights of the ABL Agent under the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Requisite Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and, other than in the case of a waiver of which the Collateral Agent is aware, the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate to such effect, each Grantor shall have the exclusive right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of Section 2.06(a)(i), and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under Section 2.06(a)(ii) shall be reinstated.
(d) Any notice given by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower suspending the rights of the Grantors under Section 2.06(a)(i) shall be given in writing, (ii) may be given with respect to one or more of the Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under Section 2.06(a)(i) or 2.06(a)(iii) in part without suspending all such rights (as specified by the Collateral Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights to give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.06(a), 2.06(b) or 2.06(c), if a Bankruptcy Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to give any notice referred to in such Section in order to exercise any of its rights described in such Section, and the suspension of the rights of each of the Grantors under each such Section shall be automatic upon the occurrence of such Bankruptcy Event of Default.
Section 2.07. Collateral Agent Not a Partner or Limited Liability Company Member. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner in any partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Collateral Agent shall become the absolute owner of Pledged Equity consisting of a limited liability company interest or a partnership interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party, any Grantor and/or any other Person.

16
Section 3.02. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and warrants, as to itself and the other Grantors, to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that:
(a) Each Grantor has good and valid rights in (not subject to any Liens other than Liens permitted by Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement) and/or good and marketable title in the Article 9 Collateral with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder (which rights and/or title are, in any event, sufficient under Section 9-203 of the UCC), and has full power and authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other Person other than any consent or approval that has been obtained.
(b) The Collateral Questionnaire has been duly executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent and the information set forth therein, including the exact legal name of each Grantor and its jurisdiction of organization, is correct and complete in all material respects as of the Closing Date. The UCC financing statements (including fixture filings, as applicable) prepared by the Collateral Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Questionnaire for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 5A to the Collateral Questionnaire (or specified by notice from the applicable Grantor to the Collateral Agent after the Closing Date in the case of filings, recordings or registrations required by Section 5.10 or 5.11 of the Credit Agreement), are all the filings, recordings and registrations (other than any filings required to be made in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office in order to perfect the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property) that are necessary to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Article 9 Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration with respect to such Article 9 Collateral is necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation statements. Each Grantor represents and warrants that, as of the Closing Date, fully executed Intellectual Property Grants of Security Interest containing a description of all Intellectual Property Collateral consisting of Patents, registered Trademarks (and Trademarks for which registration applications are pending), registered Copyrights (and Copyrights for which registration applications are pending) and exclusive Copyright Licenses (where a Grantor is a licensee), as applicable, have been delivered to the Collateral Agent for recording by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations thereunder.
(c) The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral securing the payment and performance of the
17
Secured Obligations, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section 3.02(b), a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the UCC and (iii) a security interest that shall be perfected in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected upon the receipt and recording of the relevant Grants of Security Interest with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, within the three month period (commencing as of the date hereof) pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261 or 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or the one month period (commencing as of the date hereof) pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 205. The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, other than (i) any nonconsensual Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement and has priority as a matter of law and (ii) Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement (other than, with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, Liens securing Permitted Term Indebtedness).
(d) The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, except for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of (i) any financing statement or analogous document under the UCC or any other applicable laws covering any Article 9 Collateral, (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, (iii) any notice under the Assignment of Claims Act or (iv) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement.
(e) All Commercial Tort Claims of each Grantor where the amount of damages claimed by such Grantor is in excess of $3,000,000 in existence on the date of this Agreement (or on the date upon which such Grantor becomes a party to this Agreement) are described on Schedule II hereto. In the event any Supplemental Collateral Questionnaire or any Pledge and Security Agreement Supplement shall set forth any Commercial Tort Claim, Schedule II shall be deemed to be supplemented to include the reference to such Commercial Tort Claim (and the description thereof), in the same form as such reference and description are set forth on such Supplemental Collateral Questionnaire or such Pledge and Security Agreement Supplement.
Section 3.03. Covenants. (a) The Borrower agrees to promptly (and in any event within 30 calendar days thereafter) notify the Collateral Agent of any change (i) in the legal name of any Grantor, (ii) in the identity or type of organization or corporate structure of any Grantor, (iii) in the jurisdiction of organization of any Grantor, (iv) in the Location of any Grantor or (v) in the organizational identification number of
18
any Grantor. The Grantors agree not to effect or permit any change referred to in the preceding sentence unless all filings, publications and registrations have been made (or will be made in a timely fashion) under the UCC or any other applicable law that are required in order for the Collateral Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and first-priority (subject only to (i) any nonconsensual Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement and has priority as a matter of law and (ii) Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement (other than, with respect to ABL Priority Collateral, Liens securing Permitted Term Indebtedness)) perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral. In addition, if any Grantor does not have an organizational identification number on the Closing Date (or the date such Grantor becomes a party to this Agreement) and later obtains one, the Borrower shall promptly thereafter notify the Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number and shall take all actions reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to the extent necessary to maintain the security interests (and the priority thereof) of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby fully perfected and in full force and effect.
(b) Subject to Section 3.03(h), each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all Persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement.
(c) Each year, at the time of delivery of annual financial statements with respect to the preceding fiscal year pursuant to Section 5.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a completed Supplemental Collateral Questionnaire executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, together with all attachments contemplated thereby, and certifying that all UCC financing statements (including fixtures filings, as applicable) and all Intellectual Property Security Agreements or supplements thereto have been filed of record in each applicable governmental office in order that, to the extent perfection can be obtained by filing UCC financing statements and recordation of a security agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, the security interests created under the Collateral Documents shall be perfected for a period of not less than 18 months after the date of such Supplemental Collateral Questionnaire (except as noted therein with respect to any continuation statements to be filed within such period).
(d) Subject to Section 3.03(h), each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request to better assure, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements (including fixture filings) or other documents in connection herewith or therewith. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Article 9 Collateral (other than by a Credit
19
Party) that equals or exceeds $1,500,000 shall be or become evidenced by any Promissory Note or Instrument, such Promissory Note or Instrument shall be promptly pledged and, subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, duly endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
(e) At its option, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement and within a reasonable period of time after the Collateral Agent has requested that it do so, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent within 10 days after demand for any payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization (and any such payment made or expense incurred shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby). Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Credit Documents.
(f) If at any time any Grantor shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or any other Person the value of which equals or exceeds $1,000,000 to secure payment and performance of an Account, such Grantor shall promptly assign such security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Such assignment need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.
(g) Each Grantor (rather than the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party) shall remain liable (as between itself and any relevant counterparty) to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral, all in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance.
(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (a) except with respect to Indebtedness represented or evidenced by certificates or instruments to the extent required by Section 2.02(b), perfection by possession or “control” shall not be required with respect to any Promissory Notes or other evidences of Indebtedness owned by a Grantor and constituting Collateral, (b) no actions in any jurisdiction outside of the United States or that are necessary to create or perfect any security interest in assets located or titled outside of the United States shall be required, other than in connection with (i) the entry into Foreign Pledge Agreements as reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, (ii) any Eligible Inventory or (iii) any Eligible Foreign Receivable and
20
(c) no Grantor shall be required to deliver to the Collateral Agent any certificates or instruments representing or evidencing, or any stock powers or other instruments of transfer in respect of, Equity Interests in any Subsidiary that is not a Material Subsidiary.
(i) If any consignee holds Article 9 Collateral owned by any Grantor with a value in excess of $250,000, such Grantor shall, at such Grantor’s sole expense, perfect and protect such Grantor’s ownership interests in all Eligible Inventory stored with such consignee against creditors of the consignee by (i) filing and maintaining financing statements against such consignee reflecting the consignment arrangement in all appropriate filing offices, (ii) providing any written notices required by the UCC to notify any prior creditors of such consignee of the consignment arrangement and (iii) taking such other actions as may be appropriate to perfect and protect such Grantor’s interests in such inventory under Section 2-326, Section 9-103, Section 9-324 and Section 9-505 of the UCC or otherwise, which such financing statements filed pursuant to this paragraph shall be assigned to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
Section 3.04. Other Actions. In order to further insure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Security Interest, each Grantor agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense and subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, to take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral:
(a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments constituting Collateral and evidencing an amount equal to or in excess of $1,500,000, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.
(b) Deposit Accounts. For each Deposit Account (other than (i) any Deposit Account that is Excluded Property and (ii) Deposit Accounts the daily balance in which does not at any time exceed $1,500,000 for any such account or $5,000,000 for all such accounts) that any Grantor at any time opens or maintains, such Grantor shall either within 90 days of the establishment of such Deposit Account (or such later date as the Collateral Agent shall agree) (i) cause the depositary bank to agree to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent to such depositary bank directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to such Deposit Account, without further consent of such Grantor or any other Person, pursuant to a Control Agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the customer of the depositary bank with respect to such Deposit Account, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Collateral Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw funds from such Deposit Account. The Collateral Agent agrees with each Grantor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any such instructions or withhold any withdrawal rights from any Grantor unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any withdrawal, would occur or a Cash Dominion Period has occurred and is continuing. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any Deposit Account for which any Grantor, the depositary bank and the Collateral Agent have entered into a cash collateral agreement specially negotiated among such Grantor, the depositary bank and the Collateral Agent for the specific purpose set forth therein.
21
(c) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article II or in Section 3.03(h), if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Certificated Securities, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request. If any Securities constituting Collateral now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Grantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, upon the Collateral Agent’s request and following the occurrence of an Event of Default such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (but only to the extent such Securities and other Investment Property constitute Collateral) (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such Securities, without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of the Securities. If any Securities constituting Collateral, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other Investment Property are held by any Grantor or its nominee through a Securities Intermediary, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and at the Collateral Agent’s request and option, pursuant to a Control Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent shall either (within 90 days of the establishment of such Securities Account (or such later date as the Collateral Agent shall agree)) (i) cause such Securities Intermediary to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or other instructions from the Collateral Agent to such Securities Intermediary as to such Security Entitlements without further consent of any Grantor, such nominee or any other Person, or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the Entitlement Holder with respect to such Investment Property, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Collateral Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such Investment Property. The Collateral Agent agrees with each of the Grantors that the Collateral Agent shall not give any such Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any such issuer or Securities Intermediary and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by any Grantor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(d) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time after the date of this Agreement acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount (taking the greater of the aggregate claimed damages thereunder or the reasonably estimated value thereof) of $3,000,000 or more, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor and provide supplements to Schedule II describing the details thereof and shall grant to the Collateral Agent a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement.

Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.01 or any other rights of the Collateral Agent as the holder of a Security Interest in any Intellectual Property Collateral, for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of rent, royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located (whether or not any license agreement by and between any Grantor and any other Person relating to the use of such Intellectual Property Collateral may be terminated hereafter), and including in such license reasonable 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, provided, however, that any license granted by the Collateral Agent to a third party shall include reasonable and customary terms necessary to preserve the existence, validity, and value of the affected Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, provisions requiring the continuing confidential handling of trade secrets, requiring the use of appropriate notices and prohibiting the use of false notices, protecting Trademarks in the manner set forth below (it being understood and agreed that, without limiting any other rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, any other Credit Document or applicable law, nothing in the foregoing license grant shall be construed as granting the Collateral Agent rights in and to such Intellectual Property Collateral above and beyond (x) the rights to such Intellectual Property Collateral that each Grantor has reserved for itself and (y) in the case of Intellectual Property Collateral that is licensed to any such Grantor by a third party, the extent to which such Grantor has the right to grant a sublicense to such Intellectual Property Collateral hereunder). The use of such license by the Collateral Agent may only be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantors notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default. In the event the license set forth in this Section 4.01 is exercised with regard to any Trademarks, then the following shall apply: (i) all goodwill arising from any licensed or sublicensed use of any Trademark shall inure to the benefit of the Grantor; (ii) the licensed or sublicensed Trademarks shall only be used in association with goods or services of a quality and nature consistent with the quality and reputation with which such Trademarks were associated when used by Grantor prior to the exercise of the license rights set forth herein; and (iii) at the Grantor’s request and expense, licensees and sublicensees shall provide reasonable cooperation in any effort by the Grantor to maintain the registration or otherwise secure the ongoing validity and effectiveness of such licensed Trademarks, including, without limitation the actions and conduct described in Section 4.02. The license granted to the Collateral Agent herein shall be inapplicable to any Commercial
23
Software License that constitutes Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent the applicable Grantor is prohibited by written agreement from granting a license in such Commercial Software License to the Collateral Agent, except to the extent such prohibition is ineffective (or deemed ineffective) under the UCC or other applicable law. Each Grantor irrevocably agrees that, in connection with any enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, the Collateral Agent may sell any of such Grantor’s Inventory directly to any Person, including Persons that have previously purchased the Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor, and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, may sell Inventory that bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor, and the Collateral Agent may finish any work in process and affix any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.
Section 4.02. Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. (a) Except to the extent permitted by Section 4.02(e), or to the extent that failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to registration or pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral for which such Grantor has standing to do so, each Grantor agrees to take, at its expense, all steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other Governmental Authority located in the United States to (i) maintain the validity and enforceability of any registered Intellectual Property Collateral and maintain such Intellectual Property Collateral in full force and effect, and (ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark, or Copyright registration or application, now or hereafter included in such Intellectual Property Collateral of such Grantor, including, without limitation, the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of responses to office actions issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office or other governmental authorities, the filing of applications for renewal or extension, the filing of affidavits under Sections 8 and 15 of the U.S. Trademark Act, the filing of divisional, continuation, continuation-in-part, reissue and renewal applications or extensions, the payment of maintenance fees and the participation in interference, reexamination, opposition, cancellation, infringement and misappropriation proceedings.
(b) Except to the extent permitted by Section 4.02(e), or to the extent that failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its Intellectual Property Collateral may lapse, be terminated, or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain (or in case of a trade secret, lose its competitive value).
(c) Except to the extent permitted by Section 4.02(e), or to the extent that failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall take all steps to preserve and protect each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all
24
products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the date hereof, and taking all steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the Trademarks abide by the applicable license’s terms with respect to the standards of quality.
(d) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or other interest in any Intellectual Property Collateral after the Closing Date (the “After-Acquired Intellectual Property”) (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect thereto.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from discontinuing the use or maintenance of any of its Intellectual Property Collateral, the enforcement of license agreements or the pursuit of actions against infringers, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business.
(f) Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall, if requested by the Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each License to effect the assignment of all such Grantor’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Collateral Agent or its designee.
ARTICLE V
Remedies
Section 5.01. Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under this Agreement, the UCC or other applicable law, and, subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor 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 at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors 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; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with notice thereof prior to or promptly after such occupancy; (iii) 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; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with notice thereof prior to or promptly after
25
such exercise; (iv) withdraw any and all cash or other Collateral from any Collateral Account and apply such cash and other Collateral to the payment of any and all Secured Obligations in the manner provided in Section 5.02; (v) subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law and the notice requirements described below, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate; and (vi) with respect to any Intellectual Property Collateral, on demand, cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Intellectual Property Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Collateral Agent, or license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such Intellectual Property Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine, provided, however, that such terms shall include all terms and restrictions that customarily required to ensure the continuing validity and effectiveness of the Intellectual Property Collateral at issue, such as, without limitation, notice, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to patents, and copyright notices and restrictions or decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software, and confidentiality protections for trade secrets. Each Grantor acknowledges and recognizes that (a) the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral consisting of securities by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. §77, (as amended and in effect, the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of various states (the “Blue Sky Laws”), but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who 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, (b) private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if such securities were sold at public sales, (c) neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any obligation to delay sale of any of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit such securities to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act or the Blue Sky Laws, and (d) private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against any Secured Party arising because the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. Upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.
26
The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. The Collateral Agent may conduct one or more going out of business sales, in the Collateral Agent’s own right or by one or more agents and contractors. Such sale(s) may be conducted upon any premises owned, leased, or occupied by any Grantor. The Collateral Agent and any such agent or contractor, in conjunction with any such sale, may augment the Inventory with other goods (all of which other goods shall remain the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor). Any amounts realized from the sale of such goods which constitute augmentations to the Inventory (net of an allocable share of the costs and expenses incurred in their disposition) shall be the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor and neither any Grantor nor any Person claiming under or in right of any Grantor shall have any interest therein. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. In the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or any other applicable section of the Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or any other applicable section of the Bankruptcy Code) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Requisite Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold or licensed at any such sale or other disposition, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition. For purposes of
27
determining the Grantors’ rights in the Collateral, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full, provided, however, that such terms shall include terms and restrictions that are customarily required to ensure the continuing validity and effectiveness of the Intellectual Property Collateral at issue, such as, without limitation, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to patents, and copyright notices and restrictions or decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software, and protecting the confidentiality of trade secrets. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.
Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice to the Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights (except in the case of a Bankruptcy Event of Default, in which case no such notice shall be required), for the purpose of, subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, (i) making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance, (ii) making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto and (iii) obtaining or maintaining the policies of insurance required by Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto. All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this paragraph, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, within 30 days of written demand, by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.
By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and each other Collateral Document, the Secured Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in any proceeding under the Debtor Relief Laws, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Obligations Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Credit Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof and that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents.
28
Section 5.02. Application of Proceeds. Subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as set forth in Section 2.16(f) of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. It is understood and agreed that the Grantors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, including any attorneys fees and other expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiencies (to the extent required to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents).
ARTICLE VI
Miscellaneous
Section 6.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to a Grantor other than the Borrower shall be given to it in care of the Borrower.
Section 6.02. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay on the part of any Agent, the Arranger or any Lender in exercising any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver thereof or of any Default or Event of Default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such power, right or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege. The powers, rights, privileges and remedies of the Agents, the Arranger or the Lenders hereunder and under the other Credit Documents are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all powers, rights, privileges and remedies they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 6.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the making of any Loan or Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Agent, the Arranger or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.
29
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement.
(c) This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Credit Party hereunder.
Section 6.03. Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Credit Documents, each Grantor, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and the other Indemnitees (as defined in Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as defined in the Credit Agreement) incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee, including those arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement or performance of this Agreement or the other Collateral Documents or (ii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing or the Collateral, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that no Grantor shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities (A) have been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (1) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties or (2) a material breach of the express obligations of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties under the Credit Documents or (B) arise out of or in connection with any action, claim or proceeding not involving any Grantor or the equityholders or Affiliates of any Grantor (or the Related Parties of any Grantor) that is brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than against any Agent or the Arranger (or any holder of any other title or role) in its capacity as such). To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 6.03 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Grantor shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.
(c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby and by the other Collateral Documents. All amounts due under this Section 6.03 shall be payable within 30 days of written demand therefor.
30
(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) no Grantor shall assert, and each Grantor hereby waives, any claim against any Agent, the Arranger, any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing and (ii) no Indemnitee shall assert, and each Indemnitee hereby waives, any claim against any Grantor or any Related Party of any Grantor, in each case, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or any duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Indemnitee and each Grantor hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor; provided that nothing in this Section 6.03(d) shall diminish obligations of the Grantors under Section 6.03(a) or 6.03(b).
(e) Each Grantor agrees that none of any Agent, the Arranger or any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing will have any liability to any Grantor or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any Grantor or any other Person in connection with or as a result of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith except (but subject to Section 6.03(d)), in the case of any Grantor, to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses have been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent, the Arranger, or such Lender in performing its express obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
Section 6.04. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors and assigns.
Section 6.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in the Credit Documents and in the certificates or other documents delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Agents, the Arranger and the Lenders and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent, the Arranger or any Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, the Arranger or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or
31
warranty at the time any Credit Document is executed and delivered or any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 6.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
Section 6.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile and in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Collateral Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Grantor, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Grantor hereunder.
Section 6.07. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their Related Parties shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct or that of any of their Related Parties (as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).
Section 6.16. General Authority of the Collateral Agent. By acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and any other Collateral Documents, each Secured Party (whether or not a signatory hereto) shall be deemed irrevocably (a) to consent to the appointment of the Collateral Agent as its agent hereunder and under such other
36
Collateral Documents, (b) to confirm that the Collateral Agent shall have the authority to act as the exclusive agent of such Secured Party for the enforcement of any provisions of this Agreement and such other Collateral Documents against any Grantor, the exercise of remedies hereunder or thereunder and the giving or withholding of any consent or approval hereunder or thereunder relating to any Collateral or any Grantor’s obligations with respect thereto, (c) to agree that it shall not take any action to enforce any provisions of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document against any Grantor, to exercise any remedy hereunder or thereunder or to give any consents or approvals hereunder or thereunder except as expressly provided in this Agreement or any other Collateral Document and (d) to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and any other Collateral Documents.
Section 6.17. Recourse. This Agreement is made with full recourse to each Grantor and pursuant to and upon all the warranties, representations, covenants and agreements on the part of such Grantor contained herein, in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and otherwise in writing in connection herewith or therewith, with respect to the Secured Obligations of each Secured Party. It is the desire and intent of each Grantor and each Secured Party that this Agreement shall be enforced against each Grantor to the fullest extent permissible under the laws applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.
Section 6.18. Mortgages. In the event that any of the Collateral hereunder is also subject to a valid and enforceable Lien under the terms of a Mortgage and the terms thereof are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, then with respect to such Collateral, the terms of such Mortgage shall control in the case of Fixtures and real estate leases, letting and licenses of, and contracts, and agreements relating to the lease of, real estate, and the terms of this Agreement shall control in the case of all other Collateral.
Section 6.19. ABL Intercreditor Agreement; Possession and Control of ABL Priority Collateral. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under any other Collateral Document, are subject to the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement or any other Collateral Document the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that no Grantor shall be required to take or refrain from taking any action at the request of the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral if such action or inaction would be inconsistent with the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement.
(b) Subject to (but without limiting) the foregoing, at any time prior to the Discharge of Term Obligations, any provision hereof requiring Grantors to deliver possession of any Term Priority Collateral to the Collateral Agent or its representatives, or to cause the Collateral Agent or its representatives to control any Term Priority Collateral, shall be deemed to have been complied with if and for so long as the Term
37
Collateral Agent shall have such possession or control for the benefit of the Secured Parties and as bailee or sub-agent of the Collateral Agent as provided in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not affect obligations of the Grantors under Sections 3.04(b) and 3.04(c).
(c) Furthermore, at all times prior to the Discharge of Term Obligations, the Collateral Agent is authorized by the parties hereto and the Secured Parties to effect transfers of Term Priority Collateral at any time in its possession (and any “control” or similar agreements with respect to Term Priority Collateral) to the Term Collateral Agent.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein but subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, in the event the Term Loan Documents provides for the grant of a security interest or pledge over the assets of any Grantor and such assets do not otherwise constitute Collateral under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, such Grantor shall (i) promptly grant a security interest in or pledge such assets to secure the Secured Obligations, (ii) promptly take any actions necessary to perfect such security interest or pledge to the extent set forth in the Term Loan Documents and (iii) take all other steps reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent in connection with the foregoing.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (other than the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.19), references in this Agreement to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement (including any such references in Sections 5.01 and 5.02) shall not be deemed to limit, as between the Grantors and the Secured Parties, the rights, remedies and privileges available to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document, it being acknowledged by the Grantors that (i) except to the extent expressly set forth in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, none of the Grantors are a third party beneficiary of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, no provision thereof inures to the benefit of the Grantors and no Grantor (or any creditor of any Grantor other than any ABL Claimholder or Term Claimholder (each as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement)) has any rights thereunder or may rely on the terms hereof and (ii) except to the extent expressly set forth in the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.19, none of the Grantors shall be deemed to be a beneficiary of any limitation on the rights, remedies and privileges available to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document that is based on a reference to the terms and conditions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, nothing contained in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement (and, subject to this Section 6.19, no reference in this Agreement to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) shall be deemed to modify any of the provisions of this Agreement, which, as among the Grantors and the Collateral Agent shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms (and which, in each case, shall be interpreted disregarding any such limitations).

Accordingly, the Collateral Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations does hereby create and grant to the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, their successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien on all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to a “Grantor” in the Pledge and Security Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Pledge and Security Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Section 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and by general principles of equity.
Section 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Collateral Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or electronic (including .pdf file) transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.
Section 4. The New Subsidiary hereby represents and warrants that (a) Schedule I sets forth, as of the date hereof, the true and correct legal name of the New Subsidiary, its jurisdiction of organization and the location of its chief executive office, (b) Schedule II sets forth, as of the date hereof, a true and complete list of (i) all the Pledged Equity and Pledged Debt owned by the New Subsidiary and the percentage of the issued and outstanding units of each class of the Equity Interests of the issuer thereof represented by the Pledged Equity owned by the New Subsidiary and (ii) includes all Equity Interests, Promissory Notes and Instruments owned by the New Subsidiary that are required to be pledged under the Pledge and Security Agreement in order to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, (c) Schedule III sets forth, as of the date hereof, a true and complete list of (i) all Copyrights owned by the New Subsidiary and that have been registered with the United States Copyright Office and all Copyrights owned by the New Subsidiary for which United States registration applications are pending, (ii) all exclusive Copyright Licenses under which the New Subsidiary is a licensee, (iii) all Patents that have been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and that are owned by the New Subsidiary and all Patents for which United States registration applications by such New Subsidiary are pending and (iv) all Trademarks that have been registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and all Trademarks for which United States registration applications by such New Subsidiary are pending, in each case truly and completely specifying the name of the registered owner, title, type or xxxx, registration or application number, expiration date (if already registered) or filing date, a brief description thereof and, if applicable, the licensee and licensor and (d) Schedule IV sets forth, as of the date hereof, each Commercial Tort Claim of the New Subsidiary where the amount of damages claimed by the New Subsidiary is in excess of $3,000,000 in existence on the date of this Agreement.
Section 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Pledge and Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
Section 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Pledge and Security Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
Section 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 6.01 of the Pledge and Security Agreement.
Section 8. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Collateral Agent.
Section 9. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Supplement and the exercise of the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under any other Collateral Document, are subject to the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and this Supplement or any other Collateral Document, the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that the New Subsidiary shall not be required to take or refrain from taking any action at the request of the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral if such action or inaction would be inconsistent with the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Pledge and Security Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
