(xi) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things that Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Agent’s and Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.
Anything in this Section 7(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.
(c) The expenses of Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the highest rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on any category of past due Base Rate Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to Agent on demand.
(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 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.
8. Remedies; Rights Upon Default.
(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other instrument or
-13-
agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent may for the benefit of Secured Parties exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party in respect of the Collateral under the Code as enacted in any such jurisdiction in effect at that time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that in any such event Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except such notice as may be specifically required by law and the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code and other applicable law), may forthwith (personally or through its agents or attorneys) enter upon the premises where any Collateral is located, without any obligation to pay rent, through self-help or otherwise, and may take possession of, collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, remove and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. To facilitate the foregoing, Agent shall have the right to use each Grantor’s books and records, to obtain access to each Grantor’s data processing equipment, computer hardware and Software and the information contained therein in any manner which Agent deems appropriate. Agent or any Secured Parties 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 for the benefit of Agent and Secured Parties, the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption each Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time or times as Agent deems necessary or advisable with or without notice. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on each Grantor’s premises or at its offices or elsewhere as permitted by applicable law and shall have the right to use each Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or times as Agent deems necessary or advisable.
Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Agent will give each Grantor reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time on or after which any private sale thereof is to be made. The requirement of reasonable notice conclusively shall be met if such notice is mailed, certified mail, postage prepaid, to each Grantor at its address set forth on the signature pages hereto or delivered or otherwise sent to each Grantor, at least ten (10) days before the date of the sale. Each Grantor expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to receive notice of any public or private sale of any Collateral or other security for the Obligations except as expressly provided for in this paragraph. The Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Collateral if it shall determine not to do so regardless of the fact that notice of sale of the Collateral may have been given. Agent may, without notice or publication, except as required by applicable law, adjourn the sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale; and such sale may, without further notice (except as required by applicable law), be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. Notwithstanding any such notice of sale, Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral.
-14-
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor further agrees, at Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at a place or places designated by Agent which are reasonably convenient to Agent and such Grantor, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Without limiting the foregoing, Agent shall also have the right to require that each Grantor store and keep any Collateral pending further action by Agent, and while Collateral is so stored or kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain Collateral in good condition. Until Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral, Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Agent. Agent shall not have any obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of any Grantor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Agent. Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of Agent and Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any sale, lease, license, other disposition of, or any collection, recovery, receipt, or realization on, the Collateral to the Obligations as provided in the Credit Agreement, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Agent or any Secured Parties arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or such Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In connection with any sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral, Agent may disclaim any warranties that might arise in connection therewith and Agent shall have no obligation to provide any warranties at such time. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations or to cover reasonable and documented costs and expenses of such sale or disposition.
(b) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose
-15-
of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8(b) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in the Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8(b). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8(b) shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8(b).
(c) Neither Agent nor any Secured Parties shall be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Neither Agent nor any Secured Parties shall be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against Agent or any Secured Parties, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Agreement, or otherwise.
(d) All actions allowed to be taken pursuant to this Section 8 or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement shall only be allowed if permitted pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement.
9. Grant of License to Use Property. For the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 8 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 8 hereof, in order to take possession of, collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, remove, realize upon, sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Secured Parties, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and
-16-
to all Software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof and an irrevocable license (exercisable without payment of rent or other compensation to such Grantor) to use and occupy all real estate owned or leased by such Grantor.
10. Limitation on Agent’s and Secured Parties’ Duty in Respect of Collateral. 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 UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Agent and each Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither Agent nor any Secured Parties shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of Agent or such Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property. Agent 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 warehousemen, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or bailee selected by Agent in good faith. The powers conferred on Agent and Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect Agent’s and Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Agent and Secured Parties 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 any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
11. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
12. Expenses and Attorneys Fees. Without limiting any Grantor’s obligations under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Grantor agrees to promptly pay all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with (a) protecting, storing, warehousing, appraising, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping the Collateral, (b) creating, perfecting, maintaining and enforcing Agent’s Liens and (c) collecting, enforcing, retaking, holding, preparing for disposition, processing and disposing of Collateral.

13. Authorized Terminations. (a) Such Grantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the security interest in the Collateral of such Grantor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted under the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Grantor ceases to be a Guarantor.
(b) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Grantor (other than any sale or transfer to another Grantor) of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit Agreement or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released and such Collateral sold free and clear of the Lien and security interests created hereby.
(c) Following the Termination Date or the release pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above, Agent shall promptly, at the expense of the relevant Grantor or Parent Borrower, execute and deliver to such Grantor all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release, including authorization to file termination statements and releases in accordance with Section 9-513(c) of the Code. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 13 shall be without recourse to or warranty by Agent.
14. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desires to give and serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Credit Agreement.
15. Limitation by Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling, and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law, in each case in whole or in part.
16. Termination of this Agreement. Subject to Section 11 hereof, this Agreement shall terminate upon the Termination Date.
17. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Grantor may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of Agent. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Secured Parties, hereunder.

18. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto. This Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile or, if approved in writing by Agent, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid.
19. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
20. Additional Grantors. If, pursuant to Section 2.8(c) of the Credit Agreement, the Parent Borrower shall be required to cause any Subsidiary that is not a Grantor to become a Grantor hereunder, such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A to the Credit Agreement and shall thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor party hereto on the date hereof.
21. Headings. Section headings are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purposes or be given substantive effect.
22. Benefit of Secured Parties. This Agreement secures the payment of all Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed to Agent or Secured Parties under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Grantor.
