9. Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Agent on behalf of the Banks may exercise, in addition to all
other rights and remedies granted to the Agent and the Banks in this Agreement,
any Loan Document and any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or
relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under
the Code (whether or not the Code applies to any part of the Collateral) and any
other applicable laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred
to below) to or upon the Borrower or any other Person (all and each of which
demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such
circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
Collateral or any part thereof, or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give
option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the
Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one
or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's
board or office of the Agent or any Bank or elsewhere upon such terms and
conditions as it may reasonably deem advisable and at such prices as it may
reasonably deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without
assumption of any credit risk. The Agent or any Bank shall have the right upon
any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law upon any such
private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so
sold, free of (to the extent permitted by law) any right or equity of redemption
in the Borrower, which right or equity is (to the extent permitted by law)
hereby waived or released. The Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such
collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after
6
deducting all reasonable costs and expenses incurred therein or incidental to
the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or reasonably relating to the
Collateral or the rights of the Agent and the Banks under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, attorney' fees and disbursements) to the payment
in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Agent may elect,
and only after such application and after the payment by the Agent of any other
amount required by any provision of law (including, without limitation, Section
9-504(1)(c) of the Code) need the Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the
Borrower. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral
shall be required by law, such notice shall be in writing and deemed reasonable
and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.
(b) The Borrower waives and agrees not to assert any rights or
privileges that it may acquire under Section 9-112 of the Code. The Borrower
shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the
fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Agent or any Bank to
collect such deficiency.
10. Agent's Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact; Agent's Performance of
Borrower's Obligations. (a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Agent and any officer or agent of the Agent (each, an "Attorney")
with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with
full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Borrower and
in the name of the Borrower or in its own name from time to time in the Agent's
discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take
any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and
instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of
this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Borrower hereby gives each Attorney the power and right, on behalf of the
Borrower, without notice to or assent by the Borrower, to do the following upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(1) to execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments,
documents, and papers as the Agent may reasonably request to evidence the
security interest of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Banks, in any the
Collateral;
(2) to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or
threatened against the any of Collateral;
(3) to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section
9 of this Agreement, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of
conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral and any part thereof; and
(4) (i) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the
Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder
directly to the Agent or as the Agent shall direct; (ii) to ask or demand for,
collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and
other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of
any part of the Collateral; (iii) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions
or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to
protect, preserve, or realize upon the Collateral or any part thereof and to
enforce any other right in respect of any part of the Collateral; (iv) to defend
any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Borrower with respect to any
7
part of the Collateral; (v) to settle, compromise or adjust any such suit,
action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or
releases as the Agent may deem appropriate; (vi) to assign, license or
sublicense any Collateral throughout the world for such term or terms, on such
conditions, and in such manner, as the Agent shall in its sole discretion
determine; and (vii) to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with
respect to or otherwise deal with any part of the Collateral as fully and
completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes,
and to do, at the Agent's option and the Borrower's expense, at any time, or
from time to time, all acts and things that the Agent reasonably deems necessary
to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral or any part thereof and the
security interests of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Banks, and to
effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the
Borrower might do.
(b) If the Borrower fails to perform or comply with any of its
agreements contained in this Agreement, any Attorney may, at the option of the
Agent but without any obligation so to do, perform or comply, or otherwise cause
performance or compliance, with such agreement.
(c) The expenses of the Agent incurred in connection with any
actions taken pursuant to this Section 10, together with interest thereon at a
rate per annum equal to 3 1/2% above the Base Rate then in effect from the date
payment is demanded by the Agent to the date reimbursed by the Borrower, shall
be payable by the Borrower to the Agent on demand.
(d) The Borrower hereby ratifies all actions taken by each Attorney
pursuant to this Section 10. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained
in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this
Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.
11. Duty of Agent. The Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody,
safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under
Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same
manner as the Agent deals with similar property for its own account. None of
the Agent, any Bank or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or
agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the
Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell
or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral upon the request of the Borrower
or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the
Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Agent and the Banks
under this Agreement are solely to protect the interests of the Agent and the
Banks in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Agent or any Bank
to exercise any such powers. The Agent and the Banks shall be accountable only
for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such
powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or
agents shall be responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act under
or with respect to this Agreement, except for their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court
of competent jurisdiction).
12. Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to Section 9-402 of the
Code, the Borrower authorizes the Agent to file financing statements with
respect to the Collateral without the signature of the Borrower in such form and
in such filing offices as the Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect
the security interests granted to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the
8
Banks, pursuant to this Agreement. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction
of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in any
jurisdiction.
13. Authority of Agent. The Borrower acknowledges that the rights and
responsibilities of the Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action
taken by the Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Agent of any option,
voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for in this
Agreement or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the
Agent and the Banks, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other
agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them but,
as between the Agent and the Borrower, the Agent shall be conclusively presumed
to be acting as agent for the Banks with full and valid authority so to act or
refrain from acting.
14. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Agent or the
Borrower under this Agreement shall be given or made in accordance with the
Credit Agreement.
15. Termination and Release. (a) This Agreement and the security interests
created in favor of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Banks, pursuant to
this Agreement shall terminate when all of the Obligations have been fully and
indefeasibly paid and when the Banks have no further Commitments under the
Credit Agreement and no Letters of Credit are outstanding or unreimbursed, at
which time the Agent shall execute and deliver to the Borrower, or to such
person or persons as the Borrower shall reasonably designate, all Uniform
Commercial Code termination statements and similar documents prepared by the
Borrower at the Borrower's expense that the Borrower shall reasonably request to
evidence the release of the Liens and the security interests created by this
Agreement with respect to the Collateral.
(b) All Collateral used, sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of
by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement (including,
without limitation, pursuant to a waiver or amendment of the terms of the Credit
Agreement), shall be used, sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of free and
clear of the Lien and the security interest created under this Agreement. In
connection with any such sale, transfer or disposition of Collateral, (i) the
Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, or to such person or persons as the
Borrower shall reasonably designate, all Uniform Commercial Code termination
statements and similar documents prepared by the Borrower at the Borrower's
expense that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence the release of
the Liens and security interests created under this Agreement with respect to
such Collateral, and (ii) any representation, warranty or covenant contained in
this Agreement relating to such Collateral shall no longer be deemed to be made
with respect to such used, sold, transferred or otherwise disposed Collateral.
16. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that 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 of this Agreement, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
17. Amendments in Writing, No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (a) None of the
terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified except in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.1 of
the Credit Agreement and pursuant to a written instrument executed by the
9
Borrower and the Agent; provided, however,that the schedules to this Agreement
shall be amended and updated by the Borrower as and to the extent required by
this Agreement.
(b) Neither the Agent nor any Bank shall by any act (except by a
written instrument pursuant to Section 17(a) of this Agreement) or delay be
deemed to have waived any right or remedy under this Agreement or to have
acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in
exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Bank, any right, power or privilege
under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
or privilege. A waiver by the Agent or any Bank of any right or remedy under
this Agreement on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right
or remedy that the Agent or such Bank would otherwise have on any future
occasion.
(c) The rights and remedies provided to the Agent and the Banks in
this Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are
not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
18. Section Headings. The section and subsection headings used in this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the
construction of this Agreement or be taken into consideration in the
interpretation of this Agreement.
19. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of the
Borrower, the Agent and the Banks and their successors and assigns; provided,
however, that the Borrower may not assign any of its rights, or delegate any of
its duties or obligations, under this Agreement without the prior written
consent of the Agent.
20. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF.
