[Wachovia] and the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to
the Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Company, the
Grantors thereunder and the Collateral Agent, as amended.
Unless otherwise defined herein, or unless the context otherwise
requires, all terms used herein which are defined in the New York Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect on the date hereof shall have the meanings therein
stated.
SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Grantors, jointly and
severally, represent and warrant as follows:
(a) Title to Pledged Securities. Each Grantor owns all of the
Pledged Securities pledged by it hereunder, free and clear of any Liens
other Permitted Liens. All of the Pledged Stock has been duly authorized
and validly issued, and is fully paid and non-assessable, and is subject
to no options to purchase or similar rights of any Person. Each Grantor
is not and will not become a party to or otherwise bound by any
agreement, other than this Agreement, which restricts in any manner the
rights of any present or future holder of any of the Pledged Securities
with respect thereto.
(b) Validity, Perfection and Priority of Security Interests. Upon
the delivery of the Pledged Instruments and certificates representing the
Pledged Stock to the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 4
hereof, the Collateral Agent will have valid and perfected security
interests in the Collateral subject to no prior Lien. No registration,
recordation or filing with any governmental body, agency or official is
required in connection with the execution or delivery of this Agreement
or necessary for the validity or enforceability hereof or for the
perfection or enforcement of the Security Interests. No Grantor has
performed or will perform any acts which might prevent the Collateral
Agent from enforcing any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or
which would limit the Collateral Agent in any such enforcement.
(c) UCC Filing Locations. The chief executive office of each
Grantor is located at its address set forth on the signature pages of the
Note Purchase Agreement. Under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect
in the State in which such office is located, a local filing is required
to perfect a security interest in collateral consisting of general
intangibles.
SECTION 3. THE SECURITY INTERESTS. In order to secure the full and
punctual payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms
thereof, and to secure the performance of all the obligations of each Grantor
hereunder:
3
4
(a) Each Grantor hereby assigns and pledges to and with the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grants to
the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, security
interests in the Pledged Securities, and all of its rights and privileges
with respect to the Pledged Securities, and all income and profits
thereon, and all interest, dividends and other payments and distributions
with respect thereto, and all proceeds of the foregoing (the
"COLLATERAL"). Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery hereof,
each Grantor is delivering to the Collateral Agent the Pledged Notes and
certificates representing the Pledged Stock in pledge by it hereunder.
(b) If any issuer of Pledged Securities at any time issues any
additional or substitute shares of capital stock of any class or any
substitute note, or owes any other Debt to any Grantor, such Grantor will
immediately pledge and deposit with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, certificates representing all such shares and
such note or an instrument evidencing such other Debt as additional
security for the Secured Obligations. All such shares, notes and
instruments constitute Pledged Securities and are subject to all
provisions of this Agreement.
(c) The Security Interests are granted as security only and shall
not subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or
transfer or in any way affect or modify, any obligation or liability of
any Grantor with respect to any of the Collateral or any transaction in
connection therewith.
SECTION 4. DELIVERY OF PLEDGED SECURITIES. All Pledged Instruments shall
be delivered to the Collateral Agent by each Grantor pursuant hereto endorsed to
the order of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and
accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps, all in form and substance
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. All certificates representing Pledged
Stock delivered to the Collateral Agent by each Grantor pursuant hereto shall be
in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly
executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, and accompanied by any
required transfer tax stamps, all in form and substance satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent.
SECTION 5. FURTHER ASSURANCES. (a) Each Grantor agrees that it will, at
its expense and in such manner and form as the Collateral Agent may reasonably
require, execute, deliver, file and record any financing statement, specific
assignment or other paper and take any other action that may be necessary or
desirable, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to
create, preserve, perfect or validate any Security Interest or to enable the
Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to
any of the Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor
hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and file, in the name of such
Grantor or otherwise, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (which may
4
5
be carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproductions of this Agreement or
of a financing statement relating to this Agreement) which the Collateral Agent
in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to further perfect the
Security Interests.
(b) Each Grantor agrees that it will not change (i) its name, identity or
corporate structure in any manner or (ii) the location of its chief executive
office unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than 10 Business
Days' prior notice thereof.
SECTION 6. RECORD OWNERSHIP OF PLEDGED STOCK. If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may at any time or
from time to time, in its sole discretion, cause any or all of the Pledged Stock
to be transferred of record into the name of the Collateral Agent or its
nominee. Each Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any
notices or other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Stock
registered in the name of such Grantor and the Collateral Agent will promptly
give to such Grantor copies of any notices and communications received by the
Collateral Agent with respect to Pledged Stock registered in the name of the
Collateral Agent or its nominee.
SECTION 7. RIGHT TO RECEIVE DISTRIBUTIONS ON COLLATERAL. The Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to receive
and, during the continuance of any Event of Default, to retain as Collateral
hereunder all dividends, interest and other payments and distributions made upon
or with respect to the Collateral and each Grantor shall take all such action as
the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or appropriate to give effect to such
right. All such dividends, interest and other payments and distributions which
are received by any Grantor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the
Secured Parties and, if the Collateral Agent so directs during the continuance
of an Event of Default, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and
shall, forthwith upon demand by the Collateral Agent during the continuance of
an Event of Default, be paid over to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the
same form as received (with any necessary endorsement). After all Defaults have
been cured, the Collateral Agent's right to retain dividends, interest and other
payments and distributions under this Section 7 shall cease and the Collateral
Agent shall pay over to each Grantor any such Collateral retained by it during
the continuance of a Default.
SECTION 8. RIGHT TO VOTE PLEDGED STOCK. Unless an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor shall have the right, from time to
time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to
the Pledged Stock, and the Collateral Agent shall, upon receiving a written
request from any Grantor accompanied by a certificate signed by its principal
financial officer stating that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, deliver to such Grantor or as specified in such request such
proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of
any of the Pledged Stock which is registered in the name of the Collateral Agent
or its nominee as
5
6
shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right to the extent permitted by law and each
Grantor shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to give
effect to such right, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers,
and take any other action with respect to any or all of the Pledged Stock with
the same force and effect as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute and sole
owner thereof.
SECTION 9. GENERAL AUTHORITY. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints
the Collateral Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of
substitution, in the name of such Grantor, the Collateral Agent or otherwise,
for the sole use and benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties, but at the Company's expense, to the extent permitted by law to
exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to
all or any of the Collateral:
(a) to demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give acquittance for
any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,
(b) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any
action or proceeding with respect thereto,
(c) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the
same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if
the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and
(d) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to
make any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto;
provided that the Collateral Agent shall give a Grantor not less than ten days'
prior notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of
any of the Collateral granted by such Grantor, except any Collateral which is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily
sold on a recognized market. The Collateral Agent and each Grantor agree that
such notice constitutes "reasonable notification" within the meaning of Section
9-504(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code.
SECTION 10. REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise on behalf of
the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights
are exercised) and, in addition, the Collateral Agent may, without being
required to give any notice, except as
6
7
herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, (i) apply
the cash, if any, then held by it as Collateral as specified in Section 13 and
(ii) if there shall be no such cash or if such cash shall be insufficient to pay
all the Secured Obligations in full, sell the Collateral or any part thereof at
public or private sale or at any broker's board or on any securities exchange,
for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the
Collateral Agent may deem satisfactory. The Collateral Agent may be the
purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the
Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type
which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any
private sale). The Collateral Agent is authorized, in connection with any such
sale, if it deems it advisable so to do, (A) to restrict the prospective bidders
on or purchasers of any of the Pledged Securities to a limited number of
sophisticated investors who will represent and agree that they are purchasing
for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
sale of any of such Pledged Securities, (B) to cause to be placed on
certificates for any or all of the Pledged Securities or on any other securities
pledged hereunder a legend to the effect that such security has not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be disposed of in
violation of the provision of said Act, and (C) to impose such other limitations
or conditions in connection with any such sale as the Collateral Agent deems
necessary or advisable in order to comply with said Act or any other law. Each
Grantor will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as
the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale
may be made in compliance with law. Upon any such sale the Collateral Agent
shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof
the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the
Collateral so sold absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever
kind, including any equity or right of redemption of any Grantor which may be
waived, and each Grantor, to the extent permitted by law, hereby specifically
waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have
under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The notice (if any) of such
sale required by Section 9 shall (1) in the case of a public sale, state the
time and place fixed for such sale, (2) in the case of a sale at a broker's
board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such
sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or the portion thereof
so being sold, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange, and (3)
in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be
consummated. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within
ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may
fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in
one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may
determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any such sale
pursuant to any such notice. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or
publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be
adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the
sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so
adjourned. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on
credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the
Collateral Agent until the selling price is paid by
7
8
the purchaser thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in
the case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral
so sold and, in the case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold
upon like notice. The Collateral Agent, instead of exercising the power of sale
herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to
foreclose the Security Interests and sell the Collateral, or any portion
thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent
jurisdiction.
SECTION 11. EXPENSES. The Company agrees that it will forthwith upon
demand pay to each Secured Party:
(a) the amount of any taxes which the Collateral Agent or any
other Secured Party may have been required to pay by reason of the
Security Interests or to free any of the Collateral from any Lien
thereon, and
(b) the amount of any and all out-of-pocket expenses, including
the fees and disbursements of counsel and of any other experts, which the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may incur in connection with
(i) the administration or enforcement of this Agreement, including such
expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral and the
validity, perfection, rank and value of any Security Interest, (ii) the
collection, sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral, (iii) the
exercise by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any of the
rights conferred upon it hereunder or (iv) any Default or Event of
Default.
Any such amount not paid on demand shall, together with interest thereon until
paid at an annual rate equal to 3% plus the rate announced from time to time by
The Bank of New York as its prime rate, be Secured Obligations hereunder.
SECTION 12. LIMITATION ON DUTY OF COLLATERAL AGENT IN RESPECT OF
COLLATERAL. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or
control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income
thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other
rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in
its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to
that which it accords its own property, and shall not be liable or responsible
for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the
value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected
by the Collateral Agent in good faith.
SECTION 13. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the proceeds of any sale of, or other
realization upon, all or any part of any Grantor's Collateral and any cash held
in any Pledged Account (as
8
9
defined in the Security Agreement) shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in
the following order of priorities:
FIRST, to payment of the expenses of such sale or other
realization, including reasonable compensation to agents and counsel for
the Collateral Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred
or made by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and any other
unreimbursed expenses for which the Collateral Agent is to be reimbursed
pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Note Purchase Agreement or Section 11
hereof and unpaid fees owing to the Collateral Agent under the Note
Purchase Agreement;
SECOND, to the ratable payment of all other Secured Obligations,
until all Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full; and
FINALLY, to payment to such Grantor or its successors or assigns,
or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then
remaining from such proceeds.
The Collateral Agent may make distributions hereunder in cash or in kind or, on
a ratable basis, in any combination thereof.
SECTION 14. CONCERNING THE COLLATERAL AGENT. The provisions of Section 10
of the Security Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent in
respect of this Agreement and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and any
other Secured Parties in such respect. In furtherance and not in derogation of
the rights, privileges and immunities of the Collateral Agent therein set forth:
(a) The Collateral Agent is authorized to take all such action as
is provided to be taken by it as Collateral Agent hereunder and all other
action reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly
provided for herein (including, without limitation, the timing and
methods of realization upon the Collateral) the Collateral Agent shall
act or refrain from acting in accordance with its discretion.
(b) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the
existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the
validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Security
Interests in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law
or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder. The
Collateral Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the
performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement by any
Grantor.
9
10
SECTION 15. APPOINTMENT OF CO-AGENTS. At any time or times, in order to
comply with any legal requirement in any jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent may
appoint a bank or trust company or one or more other persons, either to act as
co-agent or co-agents, jointly with the Collateral Agent, or to act as separate
agent or agents on behalf of the Collateral Agent with such power and authority
as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and may
be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of
the Collateral Agent, include provisions for the protection of such co-agent or
separate agent similar to the provisions of Section 14).
SECTION 16. TERMINATION OF SECURITY INTERESTS; RELEASE OF COLLATERAL.
Upon the repayment in full of all Secured Obligations and the termination of the
Commitment under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Security Interests shall
terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to each Grantor. Nothing
in this Agreement shall prohibit a merger or consolidation otherwise permitted
by Section 6.15(a) of the Note Purchase Agreement. If a merger or consolidation
permitted thereby shall be consummated in which the issuer of any Pledged Stock
is the not the surviving entity, and if at such time and after giving effect to
such event no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Security
Interests in such Pledged Stock shall terminate and the Collateral Agent shall
return such Pledged Stock to the Grantor thereof. At any time and from time to
time prior to such termination of the Security Interests, the Collateral Agent
may release any of the Collateral only with the prior written consent of the
Majority Holders. Upon any such termination of the Security Interests or release
of Collateral, the Collateral Agent will, at the expense of the Company,
execute, deliver and return to the Grantors such documents and instruments
(including certificates representing Pledged Securities and any stock powers or
other instruments of transfer) as the Grantors shall reasonably request to
evidence the termination of the Security Interests or the release of such
Collateral, as the case may be.
SECTION 17. NOTICES. All notices hereunder shall be given in accordance
with Section 10.01 of the Note Purchase Agreement. In the case of [Wachovia],
its address shall be as set forth on the [Wachovia] Addendum, or such other
address as [Wachovia] may hereafter specify to the Company and the Collateral
Agent for such purpose.
SECTION 18. WAIVERS, NON-EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. No failure on the part of
the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in
exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right under this
Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right under
the Note Purchase Agreement or any other Financing Document preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights in
this Agreement and the other Financing Documents are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.
10
11
SECTION 19. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement is for the benefit of
the Secured Parties and their successors and assigns, and in the event of an
assignment of all or any of the Secured Obligations, the rights hereunder, to
the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with
such indebtedness. This Agreement shall be binding on each Grantor and its
successors and assigns.
SECTION 20. CHANGES IN WRITING. Neither this Agreement nor any provision
hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only in
writing signed by each Grantor affected thereby and the Collateral Agent.
SECTION 21. NEW YORK LAW. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise
required by mandatory provisions of law and except to the extent that remedies
provided by the laws of any jurisdiction other than New York are governed by the
laws of such jurisdiction.
SECTION 22. SEVERABILITY. If any provision hereof is invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
(i) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such
jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Secured Parties in
order to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be
possible; and (ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in
any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such
provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 23. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original with the same effect as if the
signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
SECTION 24. [WACHOVIA] ADDENDUM. From and after the date when the
Collateral Agent shall receive a duly executed [Wachovia] Addendum, (i) the Cash
Management Obligations will become Secured Obligations hereunder, subject to the
limitations contained herein, and (ii) [Wachovia] shall become a Secured Party
hereunder, and shall thereupon become entitled to the benefits, and be bound by
the obligations, under this Agreement as a Secured Party, including without
limitation Section 10 of the Security Agreement.
