     (ii) Such Grantor is the exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the material Intellectual Property Collateral, and is entitled to use all material Intellectual Property Collateral subject only to the terms of the IP Agreements, in each case as used in or necessary to its operations, except to the extent such failure to own or possess such right to use, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

     (iii) The IP Agreements, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names and all applications for any of the foregoing included in the Intellectual Property Collateral is set forth on Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate and such schedule sets forth all such Intellectual Property and all IP Agreements material to the operations of the Grantors; and

     (iv) None of such Grantor’s Intellectual Property material to the operations of the Grantors, has been abandoned or has been adjudged invalid or unenforceable in whole or part.

          Section 7. Further Assurances. (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly (or within such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) execute and deliver, or otherwise authenticate, all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any pledge or security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor hereunder or to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will promptly with respect to Collateral of such Grantor:

- 12 -

     (ii) execute or authenticate and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor hereunder;

     (iii) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an executed Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to each Deposit Account of any Grantor owned, maintained or established by any Grantor after the Closing Date (other than an Excluded Account), including any such Deposit Account which at any time ceases to be an Excluded Account (it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not give any instructions directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Grantor with respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing);

     (iv) if any Grantor shall, following the Closing Date, establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account (other than an Excluded Account) with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, such Grantor shall, within 30 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) of opening such Securities Account or Commodity Account, notify the Administrative Agent thereof and deliver to the Administrative Agent an executed Control Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be; and

     (v) deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence that all other action that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary or desirable in order to perfect and protect the security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor under this Agreement has been taken.

A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor ratifies its authorization for the Administrative Agent to have filed such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments filed prior to the date hereof.

- 13 -

          (e) Each Loan Party shall at all times defend its title to Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s Liens therein against all Persons, claims and demands whatsoever, except for Liens permitted under Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

          Section 8. As to Equipment and Inventory and Insurance. (a) Each Grantor will keep its Equipment and Inventory (other than Inventory sold in the ordinary course of business or pursuant to a disposition in accordance with Section 7.05 of the Credit Agreement) having a value in excess of $1,000,000 at the places therefor specified in Section 2 to the Perfection Certificate or at such other locations as such Grantor may determine from time to time, provided that such Grantor shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying any such other location within 30 days’ after the first date on which any Equipment or Inventory is moved to such location.

          (b) Each Grantor will promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent a statement respecting any loss or damage exceeding $1,000,000 to any of the Inventory of such Grantor.

          (d) Each Grantor will, at its own expense, maintain insurance with respect to its Equipment and Inventory in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with such insurers, as required under Section 6.07 of the Credit Agreement. Without limitation to the foregoing, each Loan Party shall maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral, covering casualty, hazard, public liability, theft, malicious mischief, flood and other risks, in amounts, with endorsements and with insurers (with a “Best Rating” of at least A7, unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. All proceeds under each policy shall be payable to the Administrative Agent or deposited directly to a Dominion Account. From time to time upon request, the Loan Parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the originals or certified copies of its insurance policies and updated flood plain searches. Unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise, each policy of property insurance shall include satisfactory endorsements: (i) showing the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of property insurance, the Administrative Agent and the Trustee, as their interests may appear) as sole loss payee; (ii) requiring the insurer to endeavor to provide 30 days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever; and (iii) specifying that the interest of the Administrative Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of any Loan Party or the owner of the property, nor by the occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy. If any Loan Party fails to provide and pay for any insurance, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge the Borrowers therefor. Each Loan Party agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly as rendered, copies of all material reports made to insurance companies in respect of the insurance described herein. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Loan Parties may settle, adjust or compromise any insurance claim, as long as the proceeds are delivered to the Administrative Agent or deposited to a Dominion Account as provided above. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, only the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to settle, adjust and compromise such claims. Further, each Grantor will, at the request of the Administrative Agent, duly execute and deliver instruments of assignment of such insurance policies to comply with the requirements of the Loan Documents and cause the insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

          (e) So long as no Cash Dominion Event shall have occurred and be continuing, all insurance payments, proceeds of insurance and any awards arising from condemnation of any Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in connection with any loss, damage or destruction of any Collateral shall be transferred to a Dominion Account, and to the extent required to be applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.05(b) of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent may

- 14 -

direct the applicable Pledged Account Bank to release to such Grantor any such amount if and to the extent that any prepayment of Obligations is required under the Credit Agreement in connection with the receipt of such amount and such prepayment has been made. Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by any Grantor pursuant to this Section 8 may be paid directly to the Person who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance.

          Section 9. Post-Closing Changes; Bailees; Collections on Assigned Agreements and Accounts; Assigned Agreements. (a) No Grantor will change its name, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number or location from those set forth in Schedule 1 to the Perfection Certificate without giving notice thereof to the Administrative Agent within 30 days (or such lesser period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree) of such change and thereafter taking all action required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of perfecting or protecting the security interest granted by this Agreement. Each Grantor will hold and preserve its records relating to the Collateral, including, without limitation, the Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts.

          (b) If any Collateral of any Grantor is at any time in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee or agent (including as set forth on Schedule 2(e) to the Perfection Certificate) or is located at leased premises or mortgaged property, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor will (i) notify any such warehouseman, bailee, agent or landlord of the security interest created hereunder, (ii) instruct any such warehouseman, bailee, agent or landlord to hold all such Collateral solely for the Administrative Agent’s account subject only to the Administrative Agent’s instructions, and (iii) if at any time the value of the Collateral in the possession or control of such warehouseman, bailee, agent or landlord or located at such leased or mortgaged premises exceeds or is reasonably likely to exceed $3,000,000, use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) cause such warehouseman, bailee or agent to authenticate a record acknowledging that it holds possession of such Collateral for the Administrative Agent’s benefit and shall act solely on the instructions of the Administrative Agent without the further consent of the Grantor or any other Person and make such authenticated record available to the Administrative Agent, and (B) obtain a Lien Waiver from such warehouseman, bailee or agent or the applicable landlord or mortgagee.

          (c) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (c), each Grantor will continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due such Grantor under the Receivables, Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts. In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and, at the Administrative Agent’s direction during the continuation of an Event of Default, may take) such commercially reasonable action as such Grantor (or the Administrative Agent) may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection thereof; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to notify the obligors under any Receivables, Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts, of the assignment of such Receivables, Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts, to the Administrative Agent and to direct such obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Receivables, Assigned Contracts and Related Contracts, to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Receivables, Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts, including, without limitation, those set forth set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Cash Dominion Event, all amounts and proceeds (including, without limitation, Instruments) received by such Grantor in respect of the Receivables, Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts of such Grantor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be transferred to the Payment Accounts as set forth in Section 6.18 of the Credit Agreement for application to the Obligations as provided in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) no Grantor will grant any

- 15 -

extension with respect to the time of payment of any Receivable or any amount due on any Assigned Agreement or Related Contract, adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable or any amount due on any Assigned Agreement or Related Contract for less than the full amount thereof, release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereof, allow any credit or discount thereon (except, in each case, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice unless the Administrative Agent shall have notified such Grantor that its right to do so has been terminated) or make any amendment, supplement or modification thereto, in each case in any manner that could adversely affect the value thereof and (ii) the applicable Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy of each material demand, notice or document received by it that questions or calls into doubt the validity or enforceability of more than 5% of the aggregate amount of its then outstanding Accounts. No Grantor will permit or consent to the subordination of its right to payment under any of the Receivables, Assigned Agreements or Related Contracts to any other indebtedness or obligations of the Account Debtor or obligor thereof.

          (d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables, Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable, Assigned Agreement or Related Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent, nor any Secured Party, be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable, Assigned Agreement or Related Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

          (e) Each Grantor will at its expense: (i) maintain the Assigned Agreements to which it is a party in full force and effect, enforce the Assigned Agreements to which it is a party in accordance with the terms thereof and take all such action to such end as may be requested from time to time by the Administrative Agent, except where the failure to do could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (ii) furnish to the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt thereof copies of all material notices, requests and other documents received by such Grantor under or pursuant to any material Assigned Agreements to which it is a party, and from time to time (A) furnish to the Administrative Agent such information and reports regarding the Assigned Agreements and such other Collateral of such Grantor as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (B) upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, make to each other party to any Assigned Agreement to which it is a party such demands and requests for information and reports or for action as such Grantor is entitled to make thereunder.

          (f) Each Grantor hereby consents on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries to the assignment and pledge to the Administrative Agent for benefit of the Secured Parties of each Assigned Agreement to which it is a party by any other Grantor hereunder. Each Grantor agrees, and has effectively so instructed each other party to each Assigned Agreement to which it is a party, that all payments due or to become due under or in connection with such Assigned Agreement will be made directly to a Pledged Deposit Account.

          Section 10. As to Intellectual Property Collateral. (a) With respect to material Intellectual Property Collateral, each Grantor agrees to take, at its expense, all commercially reasonable steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office

- 16 -

and any other governmental authority located in the United States, to (i) maintain the validity and enforceability of such 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. No Grantor shall, without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, discontinue use of or otherwise abandon any of its material Intellectual Property Collateral, or abandon any right to file an application for patent, trademark, or copyright, unless such Grantor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business.

          (b) Each Grantor agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Agent if such Grantor becomes aware that any item of material Intellectual Property Collateral may have become abandoned, placed in the public domain, invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any of such Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same, unless the maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business.

          (c) In the event that any Grantor becomes aware that any item of its Intellectual Property Collateral is being infringed or misappropriated by a third party in any way that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and shall take such actions, at its expense, as such Grantor or the Administrative Agent deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to protect or enforce such Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, suing for infringement or misappropriation and for an injunction against such infringement or misappropriation.

          (d) No Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its material Intellectual Property Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain, unless the maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business.

          (e) Each Grantor shall take all commercially reasonable steps which it or the Administrative Agent (during the continuation of an Event of Default) deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to preserve and protect each item of its material Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all 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 use such consistent standards of quality.

          (f) With respect to its Intellectual Property Collateral, each Grantor agrees to execute or otherwise authenticate an agreement, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (an “Intellectual Property Security Agreement”), for recording the security interest granted hereunder to the Administrative Agent in such Intellectual Property Collateral with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the security interest hereunder in such Intellectual Property Collateral.

- 17 -

          (g) Each Grantor agrees that should it obtain an ownership interest in any item of the type set forth in Section 1(q) of this Agreement that is not on the date hereof a part of the Intellectual Property Collateral (“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. Each Grantor shall, concurrently with the delivery of financial statements under Sections 6.01(a) and (b) of the Credit Agreement, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, or otherwise authenticate, an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (an “IP Security Agreement Supplement”) covering such After-Acquired Intellectual Property which IP Security Agreement Supplement shall be recorded with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the security interest hereunder in such After-Acquired Intellectual Property.

          (h) Nothing in this Agreement prevents any Grantor from discontinuing the use or maintenance of any of its Intellectual Property Collateral 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.

          Section 11. Voting Rights; Dividends; Etc. (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

     (i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Security Collateral of such Grantor or any part thereof for any purpose; provided however, that such Grantor will not exercise or refrain from exercising any such right if such action would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Security Collateral or any part thereof.

     (ii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid in respect of the Security Collateral of such Grantor if and to the extent that the payment thereof is not otherwise prohibited by the terms of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that any and all dividends, interest and other distributions paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Security Collateral shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent (unless required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) to hold as Security Collateral and shall, if received by such Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Grantor and be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent (unless required to be delivered and so delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).

     (iii) The Administrative Agent will execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other rights that it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (i) of this Section 11(a) above and to receive the dividends or interest payments that it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) of this Section 11(a) above.

- 18 -

     (i) All rights of each Grantor (x) to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 11(a)(i) of this Agreement shall, upon notice to such Grantor by the Administrative Agent, cease and (y) to receive the dividends, interest and other distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) of this Agreement shall automatically cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Security Collateral such dividends, interest and other distributions.

     (ii) All dividends, interest and other distributions that are received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 11(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent (unless required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).

     (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Cash Dominion Event, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to exercise exclusive control over all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts (in each case other than Excluded Accounts).

          Section 13. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement (but at the cost and expense of the Grantors), including, without limitation:

     (a) to endorse a Grantor’s name on any Payment Item or other proceeds of Collateral (including proceeds of insurance) that come into the Administrative Agent’s possession or control;

          Section 14. Administrative Agent May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor under Section 17 of this Agreement.

          Section 15. The Administrative Agent’s Duties. (a) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking

- 20 -

of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property.

          (b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent may from time to time, when the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more subagents (each a “Subagent”) for the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Administrative Agent so appoints any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security interest granted in such Collateral by each Grantor hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Administrative Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to such Collateral, and (iii) the term “Administrative Agent,” when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent.

          (c) All expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping any Collateral, all Taxes payable with respect to any Collateral (including any sale thereof), and all other payments required to be made by the Administrative Agent to any Person to realize upon any Collateral, shall be borne and paid by the Grantors. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any Collateral, for any loss or damage thereto (except for reasonable care in its custody while Collateral is in the Administrative Agent actual possession), for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency or other Person whatsoever, but the same shall be at the Grantors’ sole risk.

          Section 16. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

     (a) The Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may: (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) 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; and (iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights of such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, the Receivables, Assigned Agreements, Related Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal of, all

funds and all other property held in or credited to any Deposit Account, Securities Account or Commodity Account and (C) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the Receivables, Assigned Agreements, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

     (b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and all cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 17 of this Agreement) in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, as set forth in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by or on the behalf of the Administrative Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the Secured Obligations shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

     (c) All payments received by any Grantor under or in connection with any Assigned Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).

     (d) The Administrative Agent may, without notice to any Grantor except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held with respect to any Deposit Account.

     (e) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral of any Grantor, the goodwill symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such sale or other disposition shall be included therein, and such Grantor shall supply to the Administrative Agent or its designee such Grantor’s know-how and expertise, and documents and things relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of such Grantor.

     (f) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Security Collateral of any Grantor pursuant to this Section 16, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor will, at its own expense, do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of such Security Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.

     (g) The Administrative Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Security Collateral pursuant to this Section 16, to deliver or otherwise disclose to any prospective

- 22 -

purchaser of the Security Collateral: (i) any registration statement or prospectus, and all supplements and amendments thereto; (ii) any information and projections; and (iii) any other information in its possession relating to such Security Collateral.

     (h) Each Grantor acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages that would be suffered by the Secured Parties by reason of the failure by such Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in subsection (f) of this Section 16 above and, consequently, agrees that, if such Grantor shall fail to perform any of such covenants, it will pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the value of the Security Collateral on the date the Administrative Agent shall demand compliance with subsection (f) of this Section 16 above.

     (i) For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 16 at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof to the extent that such non-exclusive license does not violate the express terms of any agreement between a Grantor and a third party governing the applicable Grantor’s use of such Intellectual Property Collateral. If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to the Administrative Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property Collateral shall have been previously made in accordance with the terms hereof and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Administrative Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Administrative Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further, the rights, title and interest so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties.

     (j) Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, the Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to Persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Security Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, so long as such private sale is made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Security Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

- 23 -

          Section 17. Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Secured Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or resulting from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of the Grantors under this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement (and any earlier resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent or any Collateral Agent).

          (b) Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that the Administrative Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral of such Grantor, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by such Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof; provided that, any such payment or reimbursement to the Administrative Agent for fees and expenses of counsel with respect to the administration of this Agreement and the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral shall be limited to the reasonable and documented fees, out-of-pocket charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for the Administrative Agent, one firm of local counsel retained by the Administrative Agent in each relevant local jurisdiction and one firm of special counsel retained by the Administrative Agent for each relevant specialty.

          Section 18. Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors; Etc. (a) Subject to Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by (i) each Grantor (other than the Specified U.S. Borrower) to which such amendment or waiver is to apply, (ii) the Specified U.S. Borrower and (iii) the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

          (b) Upon the execution and delivery, or authentication, by any Person of a security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each a “Security Agreement Supplement”), such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Grantor” and shall be and become a Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Collateral” shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral of such Additional Grantor. Concurrently with the delivery or authentication by such Additional Grantor of a Security Agreement Supplement, such Additional Grantor shall deliver a supplement to the Perfection Certificate attaching supplemental Schedules 1 through 18 to the Perfection Certificate and each reference in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents to the Perfection Certificate shall mean and be a reference to the Perfection Certificate as supplemented thereby.

- 24 -

          Section 19. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telecopy or telex communication or facsimile transmission) and mailed, telegraphed, telecopied, telexed, faxed or delivered to it, if to any Grantor, addressed to it in care of the Specified U.S. Borrower at the Specified U.S. Borrower’s address specified in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement and if to the Administrative Agent, at its address specified in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement. All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made at such time as shall be set forth in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement.

          Section 20. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the date (such date being the “Release Date”) of (i) the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations and (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank shall have been made) and (ii) the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer shall have been made), (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Loans owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 11.06 of the Credit Agreement.

          Section 21. Release; Termination. (a) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Grantor permitted by, and in accordance with, the terms of the Loan Documents, or upon the effectiveness of any consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement, or upon the release of any Grantor from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty, if any, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent will, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; provided, however, that (i) at the time of such request and such release no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such Grantor shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release (or such shorter period as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), a written request for release describing the item of Collateral and the terms of the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition in reasonable detail, including, without limitation, the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a form of release for execution by the Administrative Agent and a certificate of such Grantor to the effect that the transaction is in compliance with the Loan Documents and as to such other matters as the Administrative Agent may request and (iii) the proceeds of any such sale, lease, transfer or other disposition required to be applied, or any payment to be made in connection therewith, in accordance with Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement shall, to the extent so required, be paid or made to, or in accordance with the instructions of, the Administrative Agent when and as required under Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement.

          (b) Upon the occurrence of the Release Date, the pledge and security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Grantor. Upon any such termination, the Administrative Agent will, at the applicable Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

- 25 -

          Section 22. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
