If Debtor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which the Debtor has agreed to perform or pay under or in connection with this Agreement, and the Debtor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any reasonable amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection (b).
(c) Administrative Agent’s Duties. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of the rights, privileges or powers afforded to it and shall not be responsible to the Debtor or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so.
10. Events of Default. The occurrence of an event which under the Credit Agreement would constitute an Event of Default shall be an event of default hereunder (an “Event of Default”).
11. Remedies.
(a) General Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other applicable Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Debtor agrees that the Administrative Agent may, subject to the rights of Lessees of Pledged Railcars to quiet possession as contemplated by Section 2(d) of this Agreement:
(i) require the Debtor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent;
(ii) peaceably and without notice enter any premises of the Debtor, take possession of any the Collateral, remove or dispose of all or part of the Collateral on any premises or elsewhere, and otherwise collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, and demand, give receipt for, settle, renew, extend, exchange, compromise, adjust, or xxx for all or any part of the Collateral, as the Administrative Agent may determine;
(iii) secure the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof to the extent and in the manner provided by applicable Laws; and
(iv) sell, resell, lease, use, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing (utilizing in connection therewith any of the Debtor’s assets, without charge or liability to the Administrative Agent therefor) at public or private sale
12
or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, for cash or credit, or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, all as the Administrative Agent deems advisable; provided, however, that the Debtor shall be credited with the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by the Administrative Agent.
(b) Sale of Collateral. Each purchaser at any sale pursuant to this Agreement shall, subject only to the rights of Lessees of Pledged Railcars to quiet possession as contemplated by Section 2(d) of this Agreement, hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of the Debtor, and the Debtor hereby waives against such purchaser, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which the Debtor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Neither the Administrative Agent’s compliance with the UCC or any other applicable requirement of Law, in the conduct of any sale made pursuant to this Agreement, nor its disclaimer of any warranties relating to the Collateral, shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale. The Administrative Agent shall give the Debtor 10 days’ written notice (which the Debtor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-612 of the UCC) of the Administrative Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Administrative 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 sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent or any other holder of Secured Obligations may bid for or purchase the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Administrative Agent or such holder of Secured Obligations from the Debtor as a credit against the purchase price and the Administrative Agent or such holder of Secured Obligations may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to the Debtor therefor. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, any sale pursuant to the provisions of this subsection (b) shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the UCC.
(c) License. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Section or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, the Debtor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Debtor) to use, license or sub-license any of the Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by the Debtor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Administrative Agent shall be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent, solely upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sub-license or other transaction entered into by the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Debtor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of such Event of Default.
(d) Proceeds Account. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations may be contingent, unmatured or unliquidated, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, (i) retain the proceeds of any sale, collection, disposition or other realization upon the Collateral (or any portion thereof) in a special
13
purpose non-interest-bearing restricted deposit account (the “Proceeds Account”) created and maintained by the Administrative Agent for such purpose until such time as the Administrative Agent may elect to apply such proceeds to the Secured Obligations, and the Debtor agrees that such retention of such proceeds by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed strict foreclosure with respect thereto; (ii) in any reasonable manner elected by the Administrative Agent, estimate the liquidated amount of any such contingent, unmatured or unliquidated claims and apply the proceeds of the Collateral against such amount; or (iii) otherwise proceed in any manner permitted by applicable Laws. The Debtor agrees that the Proceeds Account shall be a blocked account and that upon the irrevocable deposit of funds into the Proceeds Account, the Debtor shall not have any right of withdrawal with respect to such funds. Accordingly, the Debtor irrevocably waives until the termination of this Agreement and the Security Interest in accordance with Section 24 the right to make any withdrawal from the Proceeds Account and the right to instruct the Administrative Agent to honor drafts against the Proceeds Account.
(e) Retention of Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable Law of the relevant jurisdiction, and subject to the rights of Lessees of Pledged Railcars to quiet possession as contemplated by Section 2(d) of this Agreement, accept or retain the Collateral or any part thereof in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.
(f) Duty of Care. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Debtor or otherwise.
(g) Application of Proceeds. Subject to subsection (d) above, the cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect of the Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.
The Administrative Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. The Debtor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the holders of Secured Obligations for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral.
12. Certain Waivers. The Debtor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, (a) any right of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Collateral or other collateral or security for the Secured Obligations; (b) any right to require the Administrative Agent (i) to proceed against any Person, (ii) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent’s power, or (iv) to make or give any presentments, demands for performance,
14
notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Collateral; and (c) all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral, other than arising from a breach of this Agreement.
13. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.
14. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by the Administrative Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No waiver of any single breach or default under this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to the Administrative Agent and the holders of Secured Obligations. Any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall not preclude the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
15. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification; Other Charges. The terms of Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement with respect to costs and expenses and indemnification are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.
16. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and, except that the Debtor may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Debtor without such consent shall be null and void).
17. Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Etc.
(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTERESTS HEREUNDER, OR THE REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN NEW YORK; PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE HOLDERS OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.
(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE DEBTOR AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE DEBTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. THE DEBTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK.
(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (b) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.
18. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by the Debtor therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the Debtor, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan under the Credit Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default under the Credit Agreement.
19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
20. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete, final and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter.

16

23. No Inconsistent Requirements.

This Agreement and the Security Interest shall terminate when all of the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) shall have been paid in full (other than (i) contingent indemnification obligations and (ii) obligations in connection with Secured Hedge Agreements as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable counterparty to such Secured Hedge Agreement shall have been made) in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments have been terminated; provided, however, that the obligations of the Debtor under Section 15 shall survive such termination. In addition, the Security Interest herein shall be deemed to be released automatically as to any Collateral upon the sale, transfer or other disposition of all of such Debtor’s ownership in such Collateral pursuant to a Disposition permitted by the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that (A) sales of Pledged Railcars in the ordinary course of business are transactions expressly permitted under the Loan Documents and that the Administrative Agent’s Security Interest and Liens in any such Pledged Railcars (but not the Proceeds thereof) shall be automatically released in connection with any such sale of any such Pledged Railcars in the ordinary course of business, (B) upon the sale of all Pledged Railcars subject to a Lease pursuant to a Disposition permitted by the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent’s Security Interest and Liens in such Lease shall be automatically released and (C) upon the sale of a Lease and all Pledged Railcars subject to such Lease pursuant to a Disposition permitted by the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent’s Security Interest and Liens in such Pledged Railcars and such Lease (but not the Proceeds thereof) shall be automatically released) or any other Loan Document, and in each instance, the Administrative Agent shall promptly upon written request from the Debtor take all necessary action to document the full and final release of such Debtor or Collateral, as applicable, under this Agreement. The automatic release described in the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply in connection with Dispositions by the Borrower to the Parent and the Parent’s other Subsidiaries during the continuance of an Event of Default that has resulted in an acceleration of the Obligations which has not been rescinded. The Administrative Agent agrees to release its Lien on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by the Borrower of all of the Obligations or (ii) constituting property that is sold or disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if the Borrower certifies to the Administrative Agent that such sale or disposition is so permitted.
25. Required Lenders. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, if not exercised by the Administrative Agent, may be exercised by the Required Lenders.
17
26. Intercreditor Agreements. This Agreement (and the Security Interest in the Common Collateral granted hereunder) is subject to any Intercreditor Agreement from time to time in effect. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the any Intercreditor Agreement with respect to any Common Collateral, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall control. So long as any Person is acting as bailee and as agent for perfection on behalf of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement, any obligation of the Debtor in this Agreement that requires delivery of Common Collateral to, or the possession or control of Common Collateral with, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed complied with and satisfied if such delivery of Collateral is made to, or such possession or control of Common Collateral is with, such Person on same terms this Agreement would have otherwise required rendering of performance to the Administrative Agent.
