2.4. Authorization to File Financing Statements. The Assignors hereby authorize the Assignee, which shall have the right but not the obligation, to file in the applicable Uniform Commercial Code filing offices financing statements naming the applicable Assignor as the debtor and indicating the Collateral as the collateral. Such financing statements may indicate some or all of the collateral on such financing statements, whether specifically or generally.

2.5. Tender of Consents.

In the event that Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933 requires or is amended, modified or interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would require) the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any other governmental agency) of separate financial statements due to the fact that such Assigned Interests and other securities secure the Notes, then the applicable Assigned Interests and other securities shall automatically be deemed not to be part of the Collateral (but only to the extent necessary to not be subject to any such financial statement requirement and only for so long as such financial statement requirement would otherwise have been applicable). In such event, this Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Noteholder, to the extent necessary to release the security interests in the applicable Assigned Interest and other securities that are so deemed to no longer constitute part of the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Partnership nor any Subsidiary Assignor shall take any action in the form of a reorganization, merger or other restructuring a principal purpose of which is to provide for the release of the security interest on any Assigned Interest pursuant to this Section 2.9.

-4-

(ii) In the event that Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933 permits or is amended, modified or interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to permit (or its replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would permit) such applicable Assigned Interest and other securities, which were excluded from Collateral pursuant to clause (i) above, to secure the Notes in excess of the amount then pledged without the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any other governmental agency) of separate financial statements, then the applicable Assigned Interest and other securities, which were excluded from Collateral pursuant to clause (i) above, shall automatically be deemed to be a part of the Collateral (but only to the extent that would not render them subject to any such financial statement requirement). In such event, this Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Noteholder, to the extent necessary to subject to the security interests under the Collateral Documents such additional Assigned Interest and other securities.

2.10. Filing; Further Assurances.

(a) Each Assignor shall, at its own expense, execute and deliver, and have registered, recorded and filed or re-recorded, re-filed and renewed, such instruments and documents in such manner and in such place or places, if any, as may be required by law in order fully to preserve, protect and effectuate the security interests granted by the Collateral Documents.

Unless applied by the Assignee to Secured Obligations then due and payable, all sums of money that are paid to the Assignee pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Collateral shall be deposited into a non-interest bearing account with the Assignee or another financial institution selected by the Assignee in its sole discretion (the “Cash Collateral Account”).

The Assignee may apply the cash proceeds actually received from any sale or other disposition to the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling, and the like, to reasonable attorneys' fees, travel, and all other expenses which may be incurred by the Assignee in attempting to collect the Secured Obligations or to enforce this Agreement or in the prosecution or defense of any case or proceeding related to this Agreement, and then to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement.

6.4. Private Sale. Each Assignor recognizes that the Assignee may be unable to effect a public sale or other disposition of the Collateral by reason of the lack of a ready market for the Collateral, of the limited number of potential buyers of the Collateral or of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, state securities laws, and other applicable laws, and that the Assignee may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales or other dispositions thereof to a restricted group of purchasers. Each Assignor agrees that any such private sales or other dispositions may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales or other dispositions and that such private sales or other dispositions shall not solely by reason thereof be deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Assignee shall be under no obligation hereunder or otherwise (except as provided by applicable law) to delay a sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the registration of such securities for public sale or other public disposition under the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state securities laws. Any such sale or other disposition of all or a portion of the Collateral may be for cash or on credit or for future delivery and may be conducted at a private sale or other disposition where the Assignee or any other person or entity may be the purchaser of all or part of the Assigned Interests so sold or otherwise disposed of. Each Assignor agrees that to the extent notice of sale or other disposition shall be required by law, at least five (5) Business Days' prior notice to the applicable Assignor of the time and place after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Subject to the foregoing, the Assignee agrees that any sale or other disposition of the Assigned Interests shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Assignee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale which complies with the requirements of this § 6.4. Each Assignor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any claims against the Assignee arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may have been sold or otherwise disposed of at such private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a

-11-

public sale or other public disposition, even if the Assignee accepts the first offer deemed by the Assignee in good faith deemed to be commercially reasonable under the circumstances and does not offer any of the Collateral to more than one offeree.

6.5. Title. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Assignee to take any action with respect to the Assigned Interests, whether by way of foreclosure or otherwise and except as required by the partnership agreement of any Subsidiary that is a partnership, in order to permit the Assignee to become a substitute partner of any Subsidiary that is a partnership under the partnership agreement governing such Subsidiary.

6.6. Priorities

. If the Collateral Agent collects any money pursuant to this Article Six, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Collateral Agent and Trustee for all amounts due under Sections 7.07 and 12.11(l) of the Indenture.

Second: to the Collateral Agent and Trustee for all amounts due under this Article Six and the definition of Secured Obligations;

Third: to Noteholders for amounts then due and unpaid for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

Fourth: to the Partnership or any other obligors of the Notes, as their interests may appear, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

7. ASSIGNMENT NOT AFFECTED BY OTHER ACTS.

Each Assignor acknowledges and agrees that the security interests and collateral assignments herein provided for shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be impaired by any acceptance by the Assignee of any other collateral security for or guaranty of any of the Secured Obligations, or by any failure or neglect or omission on the part of the Assignee to realize upon, collect or protect any Secured Obligations or any Collateral. The security interests and collateral assignments herein provided for shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by any renewal, extension, modification, amendment, waiver, or restatement of any of the Secured Obligations or of any collateral security therefor, or of any guaranty thereof, the Assignors hereby waiving any and all suretyship defenses to the extent otherwise applicable. In order to sell or otherwise dispose of or otherwise realize upon the security interests and assignments herein granted and provided for, and exercise the rights granted the Assignee hereunder and under applicable law, there shall be no obligation on the part of the Assignee at any time to first resort for payment to any guarantors of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof or to resort to any other collateral security, property, liens or other rights or remedies whatsoever, and the Assignee shall have the right to enforce the security interests and collateral assignments herein provided for irrespective of whether or not other proceedings are pending for realization upon or from any of the foregoing.

-12-

8. MISCELLANEOUS.

8.1. Additional Instruments and Assurances. Each Assignor hereby agrees, at its own expense, to execute and deliver, from time to time, any and all other instruments, and to perform such acts, as the Assignee may reasonably request to effect the purposes of this Agreement and to secure to the Assignee the benefits of all rights and remedies conferred upon the Assignee by the terms of this Agreement.

8.2. Release. If and only if all of the indebtedness and obligations of the Companies under the Indenture shall have been indefeasibly paid, performed and discharged in full in cash, or the security interest in the Collateral otherwise shall have been released by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture, the lien and security interest created hereby shall be automatically released with respect to all Secured Parties and the Assignee shall, upon demand and at the sole expense of the Assignors, deliver, file or record the proper instrument or instruments to evidence such release, and such release shall be binding upon all of the Secured Parties notwithstanding that Secured Obligations may then be outstanding.

8.3. Assignee's Exoneration. Under no circumstances shall the Assignee be deemed to assume any responsibility for or obligation or duty with respect to any part or all of the Collateral of any nature or kind or any matter or proceeding arising out of or relating thereto, other than (a) to exercise reasonable care in the physical custody of the Collateral and (b) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to act in a commercially reasonable manner in exercising its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. Subject to the foregoing, the Assignee shall not be required to take any action of any kind to collect, preserve or protect its or the Assignors' rights in the Collateral.

8.4. No Waiver, etc. Any term of this Agreement may be amended or modified with, but only with, the written consent of the Assignors and the Assignee. Any term of this Agreement may be waived by a writing executed by the party to be charged with such waiver. No act, failure, or delay by the Assignee shall constitute a waiver of its rights and remedies hereunder or otherwise. No single or partial waiver by the Assignee of any default, right, or remedy that it may have shall operate as a waiver of any other default, right, or remedy or of the same default, right, or remedy on a future occasion.

8.5. Waiver by Assignors. The Assignors hereby waive presentment, notice of dishonor, and protest of all instruments included in or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or the Collateral, and any and all other notices and demands whatsoever (except as expressly provided herein or for notices required in connection with judicial proceedings).

8.6. Notice, etc. All notices, requests, and other communications hereunder shall be made and effective in the manner and at the address set forth on the signature pages hereto or at such other address as may be set forth or in a notice from the notifying party to the other parties hereto.

8.7. Overdue Amounts. Until paid, all amounts due and payable by the Assignors hereunder shall be a debt secured by the Collateral and shall bear, whether before or after judgment, interest at the rate of interest for overdue principal set forth in the Indenture.

8.8. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement is intended to take effect as a sealed instrument and shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. EACH ASSIGNOR AGREES THAT ANY PROCEEDING FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BEING MADE UPON EACH ASSIGNOR BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN § 8.6. EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE

-13-

OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING OR ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT.

8.9. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE ASSIGNORS AND THE ASSIGNEE HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS.

8.10. Severability and Enforceability. All provisions hereof are severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any of such provisions shall in no manner affect or impair the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof.

8.11. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Assignors and upon the legal representatives, successors and assigns of the Assignors and shall inure to the benefit of the Assignee and its successors and assigns.

8.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each constituting an original, but all together one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, email, facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

8.13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Indenture and any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith express the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Neither this Agreement nor any terms hereof may be changed, waived or terminated except by a writing signed by each party hereto.
