SECTION 6.5               Litigation.  Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall have the right to commence and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value or other damage as are necessary, advisable or prudent to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral material to the operation of such Pledgor’s business.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Secured Party shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or bring suit in the name of any Pledgor or the Secured Party to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder.  In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Secured Party, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents requested by the Secured Party in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Secured Party in accordance with Section 11.5 hereof and Section 10.2 of the Loan Agreement for all costs and expenses incurred by the Secured Party in the exercise of its rights under this Section 6.5.  In the event that the Secured Party shall elect not to bring such suit to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable request of the Secured Party, to take all actions necessary or advisable, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral material to its business by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any suit, proceeding or other action against any Person so infringing necessary to prevent such infringement.

SECTION 6.6               Intent-to-Use Trademark and Service Xxxx Applications.  In connection with any United States intent-to-use trademark or service xxxx applications whether listed on Schedule 5(a) to the Perfection Certificate or otherwise, the Pledgors shall file a bona fide statement of use and shall take such other actions or steps as shall be required by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, to entitle such application to registration within 30 Business Days following the date of first use in commerce of the xxxx that is the subject of such application. Upon acceptance of such bona fide statement of use by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, such application shall automatically

22

become subject to the security interest granted herein. The Pledgors shall execute any further documents and instruments as are necessary or reasonably advisable to confirm, implement, or enforce the Secured Party’s security interest in such applications. If the Pledgors fail to execute such further documents and instruments within 7 Business Days of presentment, the Secured Party may, in the name of, and on behalf of, the Pledgors, execute such documents and instruments and make appropriate disposition of same, and the Pledgors hereby irrevocably appoint the Secured Party as their lawful attorney-in-fact with full power to do so. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof.

ARTICLE VI

TRANSFERS

SECTION 6.1               Transfers of Collateral.  No Pledgor shall (a) sell, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder except in accordance with the Loan Agreement or in the ordinary course of business or (b) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder other than Permitted Liens.

ARTICLE VII

REMEDIES

SECTION 7.1               Remedies.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Secured Party may from time to time, exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies:

(a)           Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises during normal business hours where any of the Collateral is located, remove such Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor;

(b)           Demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Secured Party, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Secured Party and shall promptly but in no event later than 3 Business Days after receipt thereof (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Secured Party) pay such amounts to the Secured Party;

23

(c)           Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation;

(d)           Take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Secured Party at any place or places so designated by the Secured Party, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense:  (i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Secured Party and therewith delivered to the Secured Party, (ii) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Secured Party at such place or places pending further action by the Secured Party and (iii) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition.  Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Secured Party shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

(e)           Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any Deposit Account further to the applicable Deposit Account Control Agreement;

(f)            [Reserved];

(g)           Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Collateral; and

(h)           Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and the Secured Party may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 8.2, sell, assign, transfer or grant a license to use the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Secured Party’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable.  The Secured Party or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable by such Person at such sale.  Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted.  The Secured Party shall not

24

be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.  The Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.  Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree.

SECTION 7.2               Notice of Sale.  Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by any Legal Requirement, 10 days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters, unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case 1 day’s prior notice shall be required).  No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 7.3       Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling

(a)           Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, notice of judicial hearing in connection with the Secured Party’s taking possession or the Secured Party’s disposition of any of the Collateral, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under any Legal Requirement, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Secured Party’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Legal Requirements.  The Secured Party shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article VII except to the extent resulting solely from the Secured Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity or otherwise against such Pledgor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.

(b)           Each Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.

25

(c)           The Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Legal Requirement relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Legal Requirements.

SECTION 7.4       Investment Property(a)

(a)           If the Secured Party determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Investment Property to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Secured Party all such information as the Secured Party may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature or interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Investment Property which may be sold by the Secured Party as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(b)           Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7.4 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 7.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

SECTION 7.5               No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(i)            No failure on the part of the Secured Party to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Secured Party in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy; nor shall the Secured Party be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable Legal Requirements, in equity or otherwise.

(ii)           In the event that the Secured Party shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Secured Party, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Secured Party and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Secured Party shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 7.6               Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property.  If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Secured Party, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Secured Party an assignment or assignments of the Intellectual Property Collateral that is Registered or such other documents as are necessary, advisable or prudent to carry out the intent and purposes hereof.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 9.1 Concerning Secured Party.

(i) Without limiting Section 9.2 hereof, except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.  The Secured

27

Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession from time to time if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Secured Party, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests.

(ii) The Secured Party shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(iii) If any item of Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Secured Party under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the provisions hereof shall control.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in connection with any MSRs, or any interest in any servicing agreement related thereto, pledged by the Pledgors to Secured Party hereunder, under no circumstances shall the Secured Party have or assume any obligation to service, or liability with respect to the servicing of, mortgage loans under such servicing agreements, whether arising by virtue of the pledge of such rights and interests or the exercise or enforcement of any rights, remedies or interests in such mortgage servicing rights or any servicing agreement related thereto.

(v) In addition to the foregoing rights, the Secured Party shall have the rights, protections and immunities given to it as Secured Party under the Loan Agreement, and such are incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 9.2 Secured Party May Perform; Secured Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Secured Party shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any Charges, lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.10.  Any and all amounts so expended by the Secured Party shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.5 hereof and Section 8.2 of the Loan Agreement.  Neither the provisions of this Section 9.2 nor any action taken by the Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default.  Each

28

Pledgor hereby appoints the Secured Party its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Secured Party’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Loan Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which the Secured Party may deem necessary, advisable or prudent to accomplish the purposes hereof.  The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof.  Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

SECTION 9.3 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment.  This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Secured Party hereunder and each of its successors, transferees and assignees (including permitted assignees pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement).  No other Persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), the Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Loan Agreement.

SECTION 9.4 Termination; Release.

(a) If any of the Collateral is (i) sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Pledgor in a transaction permitted by the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than any sale, transfer or disposition to another Pledgor), or (ii) sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise made subject to a Lien in favor of a Warehouse Lender permitted pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Liens, then, in either case, the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement in such Collateral shall be released, and the Secured Party, at the reasonable request and sole expense of such Pledgor, shall execute and deliver to such Pledgor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or advisable for the release of such Collateral from the Lien created hereby; provided that Holdings shall provide to the Secured Party an officer’s certificate certifying that such sale, transfer or other disposition was effected in compliance with the Loan Documents.

(b) After the Termination Date, this Agreement shall automatically terminate (provided, that all indemnities set forth herein shall survive such termination) and the Secured Party, at the request and expense of the respective Pledgor, (i) will promptly execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments (including UCC termination statements on form UCC-3) acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, (ii) will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as may be in the possession of the Secured Party and as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) will take all other actions reasonably requested by such Pledgor to evidence the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement.

29

(c) At any time that a Pledgor desires that the Secured Party take any action to acknowledge or give effect to any release of Collateral pursuant to the foregoing Section 9.4(a) or (b), such Pledgor shall deliver to the Secured Party a certificate signed by an officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 9.4(a) or (b).

SECTION 9.5 Costs and Expenses.  Any reasonably required action taken by any Pledgor under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the reasonable request of the Secured Party, shall be at the expense of such Pledgor, and Secured Party shall not be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Pledgor therefor except as expressly provided therein.

SECTION 9.6 Modification in Writing.  No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Secured Party.  Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given.  Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 9.7 Notices.  Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Loan Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Loan Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Loan Agreement and as to the Secured Party, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Loan Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 9.7.

SECTION 9.8 Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE UCC PROVIDES THAT PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN WHICH CASE THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION SHALL GOVERN WITH RESPECT TO THE PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST IN, OR THE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO, SUCH PARTICULAR COLLATERAL.

(b) EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHERWISE SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE NOTEHOLDER SECURED PARTY, ANY OTHER AGENT, ANY SECURED PARTY OR ANY OTHER SECURED PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY PLEDGOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c) EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION 9.8(b).  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES (OTHER THAN FACSIMILE TRANSMISSION OR ELECTRONIC MEANS) IN SECTION 9.7.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS.

(e) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE

SECTION 9.9 Severability of Provisions.  Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.10 Execution in Counterparts.  This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
