(ii) All sums of money and property paid or distributed in respect of the Investment Related Property pledged hereunder which are received by any Grantor shall be held by the Grantors in trust for the benefit of Secured Parties segregated from such Grantor’s other property, and such Grantor shall deliver it forthwith to the Secured Parties in the exact form received;

14 |
(i) Transfers and Other Liens. Grantors shall not (i) sell, lease, license, assign (by operation of law or otherwise), transfer or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, or (ii) create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of any of Grantors, except for Permitted Liens. The inclusion of Proceeds in the Collateral shall not be deemed to constitute consent by any Secured Party to any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Permitted Liens shall not be permitted with respect to any Pledged Interests.

(b) Each Grantor authorizes the filing by any Secured Party of financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such Grantor will execute and deliver to such Secured Party such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or as such Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the Security Interests granted or purported to be granted hereby.

17 |
10. Secured Parties Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Until the discharge of all Secured Obligations hereunder, each Grantor, hereby irrevocably appoints each Secured Party as the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, the Secured Party or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to take any action and to execute any instrument which such Secured Party may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:
(a) to ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with any Collateral of such Grantor or New Subsidiary;
(b) to receive and open all mail addressed to such Grantor or New Subsidiary and to notify postal authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to such Grantor or New Subsidiary to that of such Secured Party;
(c) to receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, Negotiable Collateral or Chattel Paper;
(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which such Secured Party may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral of such Grantor or New Subsidiary or otherwise to enforce the rights of any Secured Party with respect to any of the Collateral;
(e) to repair, alter, or supply goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any Person obligated to such Grantor or New Subsidiary in respect of any Account of such Grantor or New Subsidiary;
(f) to use any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, customer lists, advertising matter or other industrial or intellectual property rights, in advertising for sale and selling Inventory and other Collateral and to collect any amounts due under Accounts, contracts or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor or New Subsidiary; and
(g) such Secured Party shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights and Intellectual Property Licenses and, if such Secured Party shall commence any such suit, the appropriate Grantor or New Subsidiary shall, at the request of such Secured Party, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents reasonably required by such Secured Party in aid of such enforcement.
To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies, for itself and each of its New Subsidiaries, all that such attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. Such power-of-attorney granted pursuant to this Section 10 is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.
11. Secured Parties May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, any Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of such Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors.
18 |
12. Secured Parties’ Duties; Bailee for Perfection. The powers conferred on Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ respective interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon any Secured Party in favor of any Grantor or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, no Secured Party shall have any duty to any Grantor or any other Secured Party 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. A Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which such Secured Party accords its own property. Each Secured Party agrees that, with respect to any Collateral at any time or times in its possession and in which any other Secured Party has a Lien, the Secured Party in possession of any such Collateral shall be the bailee of each other Secured Party solely for purposes of perfecting (to the extent not otherwise perfected) each other Secured Party’s Lien in such Collateral, provided that no Secured Party shall be obligated to obtain or retain possession of any such Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Parties and Grantors hereby agree that any Secured Party that is in possession of any Collateral at such time as the Secured Obligations owing to such Secured Party have been paid in full may re-deliver such Collateral to the applicable Grantor or, if requested by any Secured Party prior to such re-delivery, may deliver such Collateral (unless otherwise restricted by applicable law or court order and subject in all events to the receipt of an indemnification of all liabilities arising from such delivery) to the requesting Secured Party, without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Secured Party in such possession.
13. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any Secured Party may (a) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral have been assigned to such Secured Party or that such Secured Party has a security interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations.
14. Disposition of Pledged Interests by Secured Party. None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof will be, registered or qualified under the various federal, state or other securities laws of the United States or any other jurisdiction, and disposition thereof after an Event of Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration. Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, any Secured Party may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal, state and other securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if a Secured Party shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause the Pledged Interests or any portion thereof to be sold at a private sale, such Secured Party shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm (but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and the failure to do so shall not be considered in determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer the Pledged Interest or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable at the private sale thereof; and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that such Secured Party has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.
19 |
15. Voting Rights.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) any Secured Party may, at its option, and with 2 Business Days prior notice to any Grantor, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Secured Parties under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, and all other ownership or consensual rights in respect of the Pledged Interests owned by such Grantor, but under no circumstances is any Secured Party obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if such Secured Party duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged Interests, each Grantor hereby appoints such Secured Party as such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Interests in any manner that such Secured Party deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. Such power-of-attorney granted pursuant to this Section 15 is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.
(b) For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it, such Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Secured Parties, vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would materially or adversely affect the rights of Secured Parties exercising the voting rights owned by such Grantor or the value of the Pledged Interests.
16. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(a) Any Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Transaction Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, any Secured Party without any demand, advertisement, or notice of any kind (except a 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 or by any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of such Secured Party forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by such Secured Party and make it available to such Secured Party at one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Inventory, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of such Secured Party’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as such Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days notice to any Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. No Secured Party shall be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Any Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.
20 |
(b) Each Secured Party is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, other industrial or intellectual property or any property of a similar nature, whether owned by any Grantor or with respect to which any Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (but only to the extent (i) such license, sublicense or agreement does not prohibit such use by such Secured Party and (ii) such Grantor will not be in default under such license, sublicense, or other agreement as a result of such use by such Secured Party), as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of such Secured Party.
(c) Any cash held by any Secured Party as Collateral and all proceeds received by any Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 17 hereof. In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient for the Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations (as defined below), each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such deficiency.
(d) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arose out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing any Secured Party shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. Each Secured Party shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by any Secured Party.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Secured Party agrees that it will not exercise any remedy provided for under this Agreement with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral unless such Secured Party is a Permitted Secured Party (provided that the foregoing shall not prevent any Secured Party from commencing or participating in any Insolvency Proceeding or taking any action (other than with respect to the Collateral) to enforce the payment or performance of any Grantors’ obligations under any of the Notes, Guaranties or other Transaction Documents). This Section 16(e) is not intended to confer any rights or benefits upon Grantors, or any of them, or any other Person except Secured Parties, and no Person (including any or all Grantors) other than Secured Parties shall have any right to enforce any of the provisions of this Section 16(e). As between Grantors, or any of them, and any Secured Party, any action that such Secured Party may take under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and approved by the other Secured Parties.
21 |
(f) Each Secured Party may, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Transaction Documents, or otherwise available to it under applicable law and without the requirement of notice to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (which notice is hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), (i) with respect to any Grantor’s Deposit Accounts in which any such Secured Party’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-104 of the Code, instruct the bank maintaining such Deposit Account for the applicable Grantor to pay the balance of such Deposit Account to or for the benefit of such Secured Party, and (ii) with respect to any Grantor’s Securities Accounts in which such Secured Party’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-106 of the Code, instruct the securities intermediary maintaining such Securities Account for the applicable Grantor to (A) transfer any cash in such Securities Account to or for the benefit of such Secured Party, or (B) liquidate any financial assets in such Securities Account that are customarily sold on a recognized market and transfer the cash proceeds thereof to or for the benefit of such Secured Party.
17. Priority of Liens; Application of Proceeds of Collateral. Each Secured Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the time or order of the filing of any financing statement or other registration or document with respect to the Collateral and the Security Interests, or any provision of this Agreement, any other Security Document, the Code or other applicable law, solely as amongst the Secured Parties, the separate Security Interests of the Secured Parties shall have the same rank and priority; provided, that, the foregoing shall not apply to any Security Interest of a Secured Party that is void or voidable as a matter of law. In furtherance thereof, all proceeds of Collateral received by any Secured Party shall be applied as follows:
(a) first, ratably to pay any expenses due to any of the Secured Parties (including, without limitation, the reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by any Secured Party to correct any default under or enforce any provision of the Transaction Documents, or after the occurrence of any Event of Default in gaining possession of, maintaining, handling, preserving, storing, shipping, selling, preparing for sale, or advertising to sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, irrespective of whether a sale is consummated) or indemnities then due to any of the Secured Parties under the Transaction Documents, until paid in full;
(b) second, ratably to pay any fees or premiums then due to any of the Secured Parties under the Transaction Documents, until paid in full;
22 |
(c) third, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the Secured Obligations then due to any of the Secured Parties, until paid in full;
(d) fourth, ratably to pay the principal amount of all Secured Obligations then due to any of the Secured Parties, until paid in full;
(e) fifth, ratably to pay any other Secured Obligations then due to any of the Secured Parties; and
(f) sixth, to Grantors or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.
18. Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of any Secured Party as provided for in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by any Secured Party, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by such Secured Party of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. Each Grantor acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to each Secured Party and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. Each Grantor therefore agrees that, in the event of any breach or any threatened breach, each Secured Party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
19. Marshaling. No Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of any Secured Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
23 |
20. Acknowledgment.
(a) Each Secured Party hereby agrees and acknowledges that no other Secured Party has agreed to act for it as an administrative or collateral agent, and each Secured Party is and shall remain solely responsible for the attachment, perfection and priority of all Liens created by this Agreement or any other Security Document in favor of such Secured Party. No Secured Party shall have by reason of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document an agency or fiduciary relationship with any other Secured Party. No Secured Party (which term, as used in this sentence, shall include reference to each Secured Party’s officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and affiliates and to the officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents of such Secured Party’s affiliates) shall: (i) have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Security Documents or (ii) be required to take, initiate or conduct any enforcement action (including any litigation, foreclosure or collection proceedings hereunder or under any of the other Security Documents). Without limiting the foregoing, no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against any other Secured Party as a result of such Secured Party acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any of the Security Documents except as a result and to the extent of losses caused by such Secured Party’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct (it being understood and agreed by each Secured Party that the delivery by any Significant Secured Party of one or more Veto Notices shall not be deemed to be or construed as gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Secured Party delivering any such Veto Notice). No Secured Party assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or breach by any Grantor or any Secured Party of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. No Secured Party makes to any other Secured Party any express or implied warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to any Secured Obligations, Collateral, Transaction Document or Grantor. No Secured Party nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall be responsible to any other Secured Party or any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents for: (i) any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any of the Transaction Documents or in any certificate or other document furnished pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents; (iii) the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency or existence of any Collateral, or the attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; or (iv) the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Grantor or any Account Debtor. No Secured Party nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall have any obligation to any other Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any Grantor of any of the duties or agreements of such Grantor under any of the Transaction Documents or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any of the Transaction Documents.
24 |
(b) Each Secured Party hereby acknowledges and represents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Grantor and its own decision to enter into the Transaction Documents and to purchase the Securities, and each Secured Party has made such inquiries concerning the Transaction Documents, the Collateral and each Grantor as such Secured Party feels necessary and appropriate, and has taken such care on its own behalf as would have been the case had it entered into the Transaction Documents without any other Secured Party. Each Secured Party hereby further acknowledges and represents that the other Secured Parties have not made any representations or warranties to it concerning any Grantor, any of the Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents. Each Secured Party also hereby acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the other Secured Parties, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in taking or refraining to take any other action under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents. No Secured Party shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any other Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to such Secured Party by any Grantor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or assets of any Grantor (or any of its affiliates) which may come into possession of such Secured Party.
21. Indemnity and Expenses.
(a) Without limiting any obligations of Parent under the Securities Purchase Agreement, each Grantor agrees to indemnify all Secured Parties from and against all claims, lawsuits and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement) or any other Transaction Document, except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and the Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations.
(b) Grantors, jointly and severally, shall, upon demand, pay to each Secured Party all of the costs and expenses which such Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or, upon an Event of Default, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of such Secured Party hereunder or (iv) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
22. Merger, Amendments; Etc. THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by each Grantor and each Significant Secured Party, and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 22 shall be binding on all Secured Parties, provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the Secured Parties or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Secured Party without such Secured Party’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Secured Party’s sole discretion).

23. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder (a) shall be given in the form and manner set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement and (b) shall be delivered, (i) in the case of notice to any Grantor, by delivery of such notice to Parent at Parent’s address specified in the Securities Purchase Agreement or at such other address as shall be designated by Parent in a written notice to each of the Secured Parties in accordance with the provisions thereof, and (ii) in the case of notice to any Secured Party, by delivery of such notice to such Secured Party at its address specified in the Securities Purchase Agreement or at such other address as shall be designated by such Secured Party in a written notice to Parent and each other Secured Party in accordance with the provisions thereof.
24. Separate, Continuing Security Interests; Assignments under Transaction Documents. This Agreement shall create a separate, continuing security interest in the Collateral in favor of each Secured Party and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations, (b) be binding upon each of Grantors, and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Secured Party may, in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Documents, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party herein or otherwise. Upon Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations, the Security Interests granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, each Secured Party will authorize the filing of appropriate termination statements to terminate such Security Interests. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to any Secured Party nor any additional loans made by any Secured Party to any Grantor, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by any Secured Party, nor any other act of Secured Parties, or any of them, shall release any of Grantors from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by all Secured Parties; provided, however, that no release or discharge in writing shall be required in respect of the release of the Security Interests granted by this Agreement upon the Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations. No Secured Party shall by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by such Secured Party and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by any Secured Party of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which such Secured Party would otherwise have had on any other occasion.
26 |
25. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper; provided, however, any suit seeking enforcement against any Collateral or other property may be brought, at any Secured Party’s option, in the courts of any jurisdiction where such Secured Party elects to bring such action or where such Collateral or other property may be found.

26. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Security Document mutatis mutandis.
(b) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

27 |
(d) The pronouns used herein shall include, when appropriate, either gender and both singular and plural, and the grammatical construction of sentences shall conform thereto.

Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). “Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations” shall mean the indefeasible payment in full in cash and discharge, or other satisfaction in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and discharge, of all Secured Obligations in full. For the avoidance of doubt, the “Satisfaction in Full of the Secured Obligations” shall be deemed to have occurred upon the indefeasible payment in full and discharge, or other satisfaction, of (i) the Notes in accordance with their terms and (ii) all other Secured Obligations as of such date. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s permitted successors and permitted assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record and any Record so transmitted shall constitute a representation and warranty as to the accuracy and completeness of the information contained therein.

This Trademark Security Agreement and the Security Interests created hereby secures the payment and performance of all the Secured Obligations, whether now existing or arising hereafter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Trademark Security Agreement secures the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by Grantors, or any of them, to Secured Parties, or any of them, whether or not they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Grantor.
4. SECURITY AGREEMENT. The security interests granted pursuant to this Trademark Security Agreement are granted in conjunction with the security interests granted to Secured Parties pursuant to the Security Agreement. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges and affirms that the rights and remedies of Secured Parties with respect to their respective security interests in the Trademark Collateral made and granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein.
5. AUTHORIZATION TO SUPPLEMENT. If any Grantor shall obtain rights to any new trademarks, the provisions of this Trademark Security Agreement shall automatically apply thereto. To the extent required under the Security Agreement, Grantors shall give prompt notice in writing to Secured Parties with respect to any such new trademarks or renewal or extension of any trademark registration. Without limiting each Grantor’s obligations under this Section 5, Grantors hereby authorize Secured Parties unilaterally to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule I to include any such new trademark rights of Grantors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure to so modify this Trademark Security Agreement or amend Schedule I shall in any way affect, invalidate or detract from any Secured Party’s continuing security interest in all Collateral, whether or not listed on Schedule I.
6. COUNTERPARTS. This Trademark Security Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof. In proving this Trademark Security Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any judicial proceedings, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom such enforcement is sought.
7. CONSTRUCTION. Unless the context of this Trademark Security Agreement or any other Transaction Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Trademark Security Agreement or any other Transaction Document refer to this Trademark Security Agreement or such other Transaction Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Trademark Security Agreement or such other Transaction Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Trademark Security Agreement or in any other Transaction Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s permitted successors and permitted assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record and any Record so transmitted shall constitute a representation and warranty as to the accuracy and completeness of the information contained therein. The language used in this Trademark Security Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Trademark Security Agreement.
8. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Trademark Security Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper; provided, however, any suit seeking enforcement against any Trademark Collateral or other property may be brought, at any Secured Party’s option, in the courts of any jurisdiction where such Secured Party elects to bring such action or where such Trademark Collateral or other property may be found. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Trademark Security Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Grantor other than Parent hereby irrevocably appoints Parent as such Grantor’s agent for purposes of receiving and accepting any service of process hereunder or under any of the other Security Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

21 | Costs and Indemnity |
21.1 | Costs |
The Company shall pay to, or reimburse, the Secured Parties and any Receiver on demand, on a full indemnity basis, all Costs incurred by any Secured Party and/or any Receiver in relation to:
(a) | protecting, perfecting, preserving or enforcing (or attempting to do so) any of the Secured Parties' or Receiver's rights under this Agreement; or |
(b) | suing for, or recovering, any of the Secured Liabilities, |
(including, without limitation, the Costs of any proceedings in relation to this Agreement or the Secured Liabilities). Such Costs shall be secured as part of the Secured Liabilities.
21.2 | Indemnity |
Each Secured Party and any Receiver, and their respective employees and agents, shall be indemnified on a full indemnity basis out of the Charged Assets in respect of all actions, liabilities and Costs incurred or suffered in or as a result of:
(a) | the exercise, or purported exercise, of any of the powers, authorities or discretions vested in them under this Agreement; |
(b) | any matter or thing done, or omitted to be done, in relation to the Charged Assets under those powers; or |
(c) | any default or delay by the Company in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement, |
except to the extent that the same arises from the misconduct or negligence of that Secured Party or Receiver.
23 |
22 | Release |
Subject to Clause 27.3, on the expiry of the Security Period (but not otherwise), each Secured Party shall, at the request and cost of the Company, take whatever action is necessary to release the Charged Assets from the security constituted by this Agreement.
23 | Assignment and Transfer |
23.1 | Assignment by Secured Parties |
At any time, without the consent of the Company, each Secured Party may assign or transfer the whole or any part of that Secured Party's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to any person.
23.2 | Assignment by Company |
The Company may not assign any of its rights, or transfer any of its obligations, under this Agreement or enter into any transaction which would result in any of those rights or obligations passing to another person.
24 | Set-off |
24.1 | Set-off Rights |
24.1.1 | Each Secured Party may set off any matured obligation due from the Company (to the extent beneficially owned by the relevant Secured Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Secured Party to the Company, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. |
24.1.2 | If a Secured Party has more than one account for the Company in its books, that Secured Party may at any time after: |
(a) | the security constituted by this Agreement has become enforceable; or |
(b) | that Secured Party has received notice of any subsequent Security or other interest affecting all or any part of the Charged Assets, |
24.1.3 | transfer, without prior notice, all or any part of the balance standing to the credit of any account to any other account which may be in debit (but the relevant Secured Party shall notify the Company of the transfer once made). |
24.2 | Different Currencies |
Each Secured Party may exercise its rights under clause 24.1 (Set-off rights) notwithstanding that the amounts concerned may be expressed in different currencies and each Secured Party is authorised to effect any necessary conversions at a market rate of exchange selected by it.
24.3 | Unliquidated Claims |
If the relevant obligation or liability is unliquidated or unascertained, each Secured Party may set-off the amount which it estimates (in good faith and acting reasonably) will be the final amount of that obligation or liability once it becomes liquidated or ascertained.
24 |
24.4 | No Set Off |
The Company will pay all amounts payable under this deed without any set off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever unless required by law in which event the Company will pay an additional amount to ensure that the payment recipient receives the amount which would have been payable had no deduction been required to have been made.
25 | New Accounts |
If any Secured Party receives notice of any subsequent Security, or other interest, affecting all or part of the Charged Assets, that Secured Party may open a new account for the Company in that Secured Party's books. No money paid to the credit of the Company in any such new account shall be appropriated towards, or have the effect of discharging, any part of the Secured Liabilities. If that Secured Party does not open a new account immediately on receipt of that notice, then, unless that Secured Party gives express written notice to the contrary to the Company, all payments made by the Company to that Secured Party shall be treated as having been credited to a new account of the Company and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Liabilities, as from the time of receipt of the relevant notice by that Secured Party.
26 | Currency |
For the purpose of, or pending the discharge of, any of the Secured Liabilities, each Secured Party may convert any monies received, recovered or realised by that Secured Party under this Agreement (including the proceeds of any previous conversion under this Clause 26) from their existing currencies of denomination into such other currencies of denomination as that Secured Party may think fit. Any such conversion shall be effected at then prevailing spot selling rate of exchange for such other currency against the existing currency. Each reference in this Clause 26 to a currency extends to funds of that currency and, for the avoidance of doubt, funds of one currency may be converted into different funds of the same currency.
27 | Further Provisions |
27.1 | Independent security |
This Agreement shall be in addition to, and independent of, every other security or guarantee which any of the Secured Parties may hold for any of the Secured Liabilities at any time. No prior security held by any of the Secured Parties over the whole or any part of the Charged Assets shall merge in the security created by this Agreement.
27.2 | Continuing security |
27.2.1 | This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as a continuing security for the Secured Liabilities, despite any settlement of account, or intermediate payment, or other matter or thing, unless and until the Secured Parties discharge this Agreement in writing. |
27.2.2 | No part of the security from time to time intended to be constituted by this Agreement will be considered satisfied or discharged by any intermediate payment, discharge or satisfaction of any part of the Secured Liabilities. |
27.3 | Company's Obligations |
27.3.1 | The obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the Security constituted thereby shall not be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by: |
27.3.2 | any winding-up, dissolution, administration or re-organisation of or other change in any Grantor or any other person; |
25 |
27.3.3 | any of the Secured Liabilities being at any time illegal, invalid, unenforceable or ineffective; |
27.3.4 | any time or other indulgence being granted to any Grantor or any other person; |
27.3.5 | any amendment, variation, waiver or release of any of the Secured Liabilities other than in respect of a specific waiver or release of the Company by the Secured Parties; |
27.3.6 | any failure to take or failure to realise the value of any other collateral in respect of the Secured Liabilities or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of any such collateral; or |
27.3.7 | any other act, other than a specific release of the Company by the Secured Parties, event or omission which but for this provision would or might operate to impair, discharge or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company under this Agreement. |
27.4 | Discharge conditional |
Any release, discharge or settlement between the Company and a Secured Party shall be deemed conditional on no payment or security received by that Secured Party in respect of the Secured Liabilities being avoided, reduced or ordered to be refunded pursuant to any law relating to insolvency, bankruptcy, winding-up, administration, receivership or otherwise. Despite any such release, discharge or settlement:
(a) | each Secured Party or it nominee may retain this Agreement and the security created by or pursuant to it, including all certificates and documents relating to the whole or any part of the Charged Assets, for such period as that Secured Party in its reasonable opinion deems necessary to provide that Secured Party with security against any such avoidance, reduction or order for refund; and |
(b) | each Secured Party may recover the value or amount of such security or payment from the Company subsequently as if such release, discharge or settlement had not occurred. |
27.5 | Certificates |
A certificate or determination by a Secured Party as to any amount for the time being due to it from the Company shall (in the absence of any manifest error) be conclusive evidence of the amount due.
27.6 | Rights cumulative |
The rights and powers of each Secured Party conferred by this Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised as often as the relevant Secured Party considers appropriate, and are in addition to its rights and powers under the general law.
27.7 | Waivers |
Any waiver or variation of any right by the Secured Parties (whether arising under this Agreement or under the general law) shall only be effective if it is in writing and signed by the Secured Parties and applies only in the circumstances for which it was given, and shall not prevent the Secured Parties from subsequently relying on the relevant provision.
26 |
27.8 | Liability not discharged |
The Company's liability under this Agreement in respect of any of the Secured Liabilities shall not be discharged, prejudiced or affected by:
(a) | any security, guarantee, indemnity, remedy or other right held by, or available to, any of the Secured Parties that is or becomes wholly or partially illegal, void or unenforceable on any ground; |
(b) | any of the Secured Parties renewing, determining, varying or increasing any facility or other transaction in any manner or concurring in, accepting or varying any compromise, arrangement or settlement, or omitting to claim or enforce payment from any other person; or |
(c) | any other act or omission, which but for this Clause 27.8 might have discharged, or otherwise prejudiced or affected, the liability of the Company. |
27.9 | Immediate recourse |
The Company waives any right it may have to require any Secured Party to enforce any security or other right, or claim any payment from, or otherwise proceed against, any other person before enforcing this Agreement against the Company.
27.10 | Further exercise of rights |
No act or course of conduct or negotiation by or on behalf of any Secured Party shall, in any way, preclude that Secured Party from exercising any right or power under this Agreement or constitute a suspension or variation of any such right or power, except to the extent such right or power is waived by the Secured Parties in accordance with Clause 27.7 (Waivers) above.
27.11 | Delay |
No delay or failure to exercise any right or power under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver.
27.12 | Single or partial exercise |
No single or partial exercise of any right under this Agreement shall prevent any other or further exercise of that or any other right.
27.13 | Partial invalidity |
The invalidity, unenforceability or illegality of any provision (or part of a provision) of this Agreement under the laws of any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, enforceability or legality of the other provisions. If any invalid, unenforceable or illegal provision would be valid, enforceable or legal if some part of it were deleted, the provision shall apply with any modification necessary to give effect to the commercial intention of the parties.
27.14 | Counterparts |
This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which is an original and which together have the same effect as if each party had signed the same document.
