Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all Secured Obligations (including interest, reasonable fees, costs and expenses) that would be owed by any other obligor on the Secured Obligations but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding involving such other obligor because it is the intention of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties that the Secured Obligations which are guaranteed by the Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve either Borrower or any other Guarantor or Loan Party of any portion of such Secured Obligations.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the Secured Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the United States Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the Secured Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future Secured Obligations. If such a revocation is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (i) no such revocation shall be effective until written notice thereof has been received by Administrative Agent, (ii) no such revocation shall apply to any Secured Obligations in existence on the date of receipt by Administrative Agent of such written notice (including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (iii) no such revocation shall apply to any Secured Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of any Secured Party in existence on the date of such revocation, (iv) no payment by any Guarantor, either Borrower, or from any other source, prior to the date of Administrative Agent’s receipt of written notice of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of such Guarantor hereunder, and (v) any payment by either Borrower or from any source other than such Guarantor subsequent to the date of such revocation shall first be applied to that portion of the Secured Obligations as to which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guarantied hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation of such Guarantor hereunder. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and its successors, transferees, or assigns.

(j) Waivers

(i) Each of the Guarantors waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to (A) proceed against any other Grantor or any other Person, (B) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any other Grantor or any other Person, (C) protect, secure, perfect, or insure any security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right to take any action against any other Grantor, any other Person, or any collateral, or (D) pursue any other remedy in any Secured Party’s power whatsoever. Each of the Guarantors waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Grantor or any other Person, other than payment of the Secured Obligations to the extent of such payment, based on or arising out of the disability of any Grantor or any other Person, or the validity, legality, or unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Grantor other than payment of the Obligations to the extent of such payment. As and to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent may, at the election of the Required Lenders, foreclose upon any Collateral held by Administrative Agent by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales or other dispositions, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable or otherwise fails to comply with applicable law or may exercise any other right or remedy Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may have against any Grantor or any other Person, or any security, in each case, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any of the Guarantors hereunder except to the extent the Secured Obligations have been paid and performed.

-14-

(ii) Each of the Guarantors waives all diligence, presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional Obligations or other financial accommodations. Each of the Guarantors waives notice of any Default or Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents. Each of the Guarantors assumes all responsibility for, and has adequate means of, being and keeping itself informed of each Grantor’s financial condition and assets and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope, and extent of the risks which each of the Guarantors assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither Administrative Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties shall have any duty to advise any of the Guarantors of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

(iii) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives: (A) any right to assert against any Secured Party, any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which each Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against either Borrower or any other Guarantor or Loan Party; (B) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Secured Obligations or any security therefor; (C) any right or defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Secured Party including any defense based upon an impairment or elimination of such Guarantor’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnity of such Guarantor against either Borrower or other guarantors or sureties; and (D) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable to the Secured Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to such Guarantor’s liability hereunder.

(iv) No Guarantor will exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Grantor or any other Guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Grantor or any other Guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or receive from any Grantor or any other Guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Secured Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and all of the Commitments have been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall forthwith be paid to Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Secured Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, or to be held as Collateral for any Secured Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, no Guarantor may exercise any rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or other similar rights against, and may not proceed or seek recourse against or with respect to any property or asset of, any other Grantor (the “Foreclosed Grantor”), including after payment in full of the Obligations, if all or any portion of the Obligations have been satisfied in connection with an exercise of remedies in respect of the Ownership Interests of such Foreclosed Grantor whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

-15-

(v) The obligations of the Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including their liability for the Secured Obligations and the enforceability of the security interests granted thereby, are not contingent upon the validity, legality, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of any right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation arising under this Section 2(j) or otherwise. The invalidity, insufficiency, unenforceability or uncollectability of any such right shall not in any respect diminish, affect or impair any such obligation or any other claim, interest, right or remedy at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party against any Guarantor or its property. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties make no representations or warranties in respect of any such right and shall have no duty to assure, protect, enforce or ensure any such right or otherwise relating to any such right.

(vi) Each of the Guarantors represents, warrants, and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that if any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.

(k) Any Indebtedness of either Borrower or any other Guarantor or Loan Party now or hereafter held by any other Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) whether as original creditor, assignee, or by way of subrogation, restitution or otherwise, is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Secured Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held as Collateral for any Secured Obligations, but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

(l) Until the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, commence or join with any other person in commencing any Insolvency Proceeding of or against either Borrower or any other Guarantor or Loan Party. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or Insolvency Proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving either Borrower or any other Guarantor or Loan Party or by any defense which either Borrower or any other Guarantor or Loan Party may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay the Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of the Administrative Agent in respect of, any interest, fees, costs, expenses or other Secured Obligations accruing or arising after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

-16-

(m) Intentionally omitted.

(n) If all of the Ownership Interests of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents to a Person that is not an Affiliate of either Borrower or any Guarantor, the guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party or other Person effective as of the time of such sale or disposition.

Section 3. Grant of Security.

Each Grantor hereby unconditionally grants, assigns, and pledges to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Secured Party, to secure the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and continuing security interest (hereinafter referred to as the “Security Interest”) in all of such Grantor’s right, title, and interest in and to all personal property and other assets, whether now owned, existing or hereafter acquired or arising from time to time, including without limitation the following property of such Grantor, wherever located (the “Collateral”), as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations:

(b) all of such Grantor’s Books;

(d) all of such Grantor’s Commercial Tort Claims now or hereafter described on Schedule 1;

(v) all of the proceeds (as such term is defined in the UCC) and products, whether tangible or intangible, of any of the foregoing, including proceeds of insurance or Commercial Tort Claims covering or relating to any or all of the foregoing, and all collateral security and guaranties given by any Person with respect to the foregoing, and any and all Accounts, Books, Chattel Paper, Deposit Accounts, Equipment, Fixtures, General Intangibles, Inventory, Investment Property, Intellectual Property, Negotiable Collateral, Pledged Interests, Securities Accounts, Supporting Obligations, money, or other tangible or intangible property resulting from the sale, lease, license, exchange, collection, or other disposition of any of the foregoing, the proceeds of any award in condemnation with respect to any of the foregoing, any rebates or refunds, whether for taxes or otherwise, and all proceeds of any such proceeds, or any portion thereof or interest therein, and the proceeds thereof, and all proceeds of any loss of, damage to, or destruction of the above, whether insured or not insured, and, to the extent not otherwise included, any indemnity, warranty, or guaranty payable by reason of loss or damage to, or otherwise with respect to any of the foregoing (the “Proceeds”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “Proceeds” includes whatever is receivable or received when Investment Property or proceeds are sold, exchanged, collected, or otherwise disposed of, whether such disposition is voluntary or involuntary, and includes proceeds of any indemnity or guaranty payable to any Grantor or Administrative Agent from time to time with respect to any of the Investment Property.

Section 4. Security for Secured Obligations.

The Security Interest created hereby secures the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, whether now existing or arising hereafter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this 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 Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or any of them, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable (in whole or in part) as a claim in an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Grantor due to the existence of such Insolvency Proceeding.

Section 5. Grantors Remain Liable.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each of the Grantors shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, including the Pledged Operating Agreements and the Pledged Partnership Agreements, to perform all of the duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, and (c) none of the Secured Parties shall have any obligation or liability under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall any of the Secured Parties be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantors thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. So long as no Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, neither Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall interfere with the quiet use, possession and enjoyment of the Collateral for the purpose of conducting the ordinary course of their respective businesses, except as otherwise provided in, and subject to and upon the terms of, this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that record and beneficial ownership of the Pledged Interests, including all voting, consensual, dividend, and distribution rights, shall remain in the applicable Grantor unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, as described more fully in Section 16.

-29-

If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Administrative Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors.

Section 13. Administrative Agent’s Duties.

(a) Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

(b) The powers conferred on Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect Administrative Agent’s interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall not impose any duty upon Administrative Agent 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, 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. Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent accords its own property.

(c) The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Collateral Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Agreement shall apply to any such sub-agent and to any of the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agents, and shall apply to their respective activities as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Collateral Documents. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent or Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or Affiliate of any such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties, and such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent or Affiliate acting in such capacity.

-36-

Section 14. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral.

At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent’s designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor have been assigned to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or that Administrative Agent has a security interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral of any Grantor directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the Loan Documents.

Section 15. Disposition of Pledged Interests by Administrative Agent.

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 or state securities laws of the United States 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, Administrative Agent 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 and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if Administrative Agent 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, Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.

Section 16. Voting and Other Rights in Respect of Pledged Interests.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, and in all cases without any requirement that any notice be delivered to any Person, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to receive any and all dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Interests and other Investment Property and make application thereof to the Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 2.9 of the Credit Agreement, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right (but shall be under no obligation) to register any or all of the Pledged Interests and other Investment Property in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee (iii) all rights of each Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights with respect to Pledged Interests and Investment Property which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise shall automatically cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested, solely and exclusively in the Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent or its nominee may, at its option, and without notice to any Grantor, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise or refrain from exercising, (x) all voting rights, or any other ownership or consensual rights (including any dividend or distribution rights) in respect of the Pledged Interests and Investment Property owned by such Grantor, whether at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant issuer or issuers, by written consent in lieu of a meeting or otherwise, but under no circumstances is Administrative Agent obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Pledged Interest and other Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange, at its discretion, any and all of the Pledged Interest or other Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to the Pledged Interest or other Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Interest or other Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion), all without liability except to account for property actually received by the Administrative Agent, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor or any other Person to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing and (iv) each Grantor hereby appoints Administrative Agent, such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and Irrevocable Proxy to vote all or any such Pledged Interests and Investment Property in any manner Administrative Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders (including holders of Capital Stock of any issuer), partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and shall be effective without the necessity that any action be taken by any Person (including the issuer of the relevant Pledged Interest or other Investment Property or any officer or agent thereof), shall survive the bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of each relevant Grantor, and shall terminate only on the Facility Termination Date. In order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder each Grantor shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day following a request from the Administrative Agent), execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request and each Grantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may utilize the power of attorney set forth herein.

-38-

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right (but not the obligation), without notice to any Grantor, to transfer all or any portion of the Pledged Interest, Pledged Securities and Investment Property to its name or the name of its nominee or agent.

(c) For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests or any other Investment Property owned by it, such Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would adversely affect the rights of Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties, or impair the value of the Pledged Interests and Investment Property or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each issuer of any Pledged Interests pledged by such Grantor hereunder to comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (i) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each issuer shall be fully protected in so complying.

(e) Each Grantor covenants and agrees that on the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the date of expiration (by operation of applicable law) of the irrevocable proxy granted pursuant to this Section 16 each Grantor shall (and shall automatically be deemed to) grant the Administrative Agent a new irrevocable proxy, on the same terms as those previously granted pursuant to this Section 16. Upon the reasonable written request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, such further evidence of such irrevocable proxy or such further irrevocable proxies to enable the Secured Party to vote the Pledged Interest after the occurrence of an Event of Default.

Section 17. Remedies.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) Administrative Agent may, and, at the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, Administrative Agent without demand of performance or other 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 UCC or 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 Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Administrative Agent and make it available to Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notification of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notification by mail to the applicable 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 notification shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notification of sale having been given. Administrative Agent may adjourn any public 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. Each Grantor agrees that (A) the internet shall constitute a “place” for purposes of Section 9-610(b) of the UCC and (B) to the extent notification of sale shall be required by law, notification by mail of the URL where a sale will occur and the time when a sale will commence at least ten (10) days prior to the sale shall constitute a reasonable notification for purposes of Section 9-611(b) of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that any sale of Collateral to a licensor pursuant to the terms of a license agreement between such licensor and a Grantor is sufficient to constitute a commercially reasonable sale (including as to method, terms, manner, and time) within the meaning of Section 9-610 of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Administrative Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Administrative Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to enter onto the property where any Collateral is located without any obligation to pay rent and take possession thereof with or without judicial process.

-39-

(b) Administrative Agent shall deduct from such Proceeds all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection with the exercise of its rights and remedies against the Collateral or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Any net Proceeds remaining after such deductions shall be applied or retained by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 17(e). Only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9-615(a) of the UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. If the Administrative Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser and received by the Administrative Agent. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Administrative Agent may resell the Collateral and the applicable Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by it or them of any rights hereunder.

-40-

(c) Administrative Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable, nonexclusive and assignable license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired, developed or created, wherever the same may be located, including any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, and advertising matter, whether owned by any Grantor or with respect to which any Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (including any Intellectual Property License), 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 Administrative Agent. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

(d) Administrative Agent may, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan 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 UCC or any other applicable law), (i) with respect to any Grantor’s Deposit Accounts in which Administrative Agent’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-104 of the UCC, 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 Administrative Agent, and (ii) with respect to any Grantor’s Securities Accounts in which Administrative Agent’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-106 of the UCC, 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 Administrative Agent, 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 Administrative Agent.

(e) Any cash held by Administrative Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Administrative Agent 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 the Credit Agreement. With respect to any proceeds of Insurance received by the Administrative Agent, (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (A) such Insurance Proceeds shall be returned to the Grantors if permitted or required by the Credit Agreement or (B) if not so permitted or required by the Credit Agreement, then such Insurance Proceeds shall be applied in accordance with this Section 17(e) and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then such Insurance Proceeds shall be applied in accordance with this Section 17(e). In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such deficiency.

-41-

(f) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arise out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing Administrative Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent.

(g) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Interests or the Pledged Notes by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Interests or the Pledged Notes for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

Section 18. Remedies Cumulative.

Each right, power, and remedy of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party as provided for in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents 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 and the other Loan Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

-42-

Section 19. Marshaling.

Administrative Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including 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 Administrative Agent’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.

Section 20. Indemnity and Expenses.

The terms and provisions of Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein, and each Grantor agrees that the terms of Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to such Grantor, mutatis mutandis.

Section 21. Merger, Amendments; Etc.

This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, represents the final agreement between the parties in respect of the subject matter hereof and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten agreements between the parties. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent and each Grantor to which such amendment applies.

Section 22. Addresses for Notices.

All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to Administrative Agent at its address specified in Section 11.3 of the Credit Agreement, and to any of the Grantors at the address for the Borrowers specified in the Credit Agreement, or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party.

-43-

Section 23. Continuing Security Interest: Assignments under Credit Agreement.

(a) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments have expired or have been terminated, (ii) be binding upon each Grantor, and their respective successors and assigns, and (iii) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Administrative Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns and the other Secured Parties and their successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (iii), any Lender may, in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise. Upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the expiration or termination of the Commitments, the Guaranty made and the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, upon Borrowers’ request, Administrative Agent will authorize the filing of appropriate termination statements to terminate such Security Interest and will otherwise comply with its obligations under Section 10.13 of the Credit Agreement. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to Administrative Agent nor any additional Loans or other loans made by any Lender to the Borrowers, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by Administrative Agent, nor any other act of the Secured Parties, or any of them, shall release any Grantor from any obligation, except as contemplated by Section 10.13 of the Credit Agreement. Administrative Agent shall not 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 Administrative Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion.

(b) Each Grantor agrees that, if any payment made by any Grantor or other Person and applied to the Secured Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be returned by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to such Grantor, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, (i) any Lien or other Collateral securing such Grantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of the foregoing clause (a), or (ii) any provision of the Guaranty hereunder shall have been terminated, cancelled or surrendered, such Lien, other Collateral or provision shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Grantor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation or the amount of such payment.

-44-

Section 24. Exculpation of the Administrative Agent.

(a) Without limiting the exculpation provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Secured Party for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or of any Collateral Document or the validity or perfection of any security interest or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to the Secured Parties or by or on behalf of any Secured Party to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in connection with the Collateral Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Loan Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Secured Obligations, nor shall the Administrative Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Collateral Documents or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing.

(b) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the Collateral Documents except to the extent caused solely and proximately by the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action in connection herewith or any of the Collateral Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have been instructed in respect thereof by the Required Lenders and, upon such instruction, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such written instructions. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Grantors and their Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any of the Collateral Documents in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(c) Without limiting the indemnification provisions of the Credit Agreement, each Secured Party not party to the Credit Agreement severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, to the extent that the Administrative Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Loan Party, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the Collateral Documents or otherwise in its capacity as the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents; provided, no such Secured Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely and proximately from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts insufficiently indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

-45-

(d) No direction given to the Administrative Agent which imposes, or purports to impose, upon the Administrative Agent any obligation not set forth in or arising under this Agreement or any Collateral Document accepted or entered into by the Administrative Agent shall be binding upon the Administrative Agent.

Section 25. No Individual Foreclosure, Etc.

No Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any guarantee of the Secured Obligations except to the extent expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the guarantees of the Secured Obligations provided hereunder and under any other Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Secured Party authorizes the Administrative Agent to credit bid all or any part of the Secured Obligations held by it.

Section 26. Taxes.

The terms and provisions of Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein, and each Grantor agrees that the terms of Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to such Grantor, mutatis mutandis.

Section 27. Set-Off.

Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Secured Party, at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to such Grantor or any other Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, at any time held or owing by any Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Administrative Agent may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities then due and owing by such Grantor to such Secured Party hereunder, under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. Administrative Agent, when exercising any right of set-off, shall notify such Grantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by such Person of the proceeds thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of Administrative Agent under this Section 27 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which Administrative Agent may have.

-46-

Section 28. Survival.

All representations and warranties made by the Grantors in this Agreement and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

Section 29. Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial, etc.

(a) This Agreement and any claim, 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 for contracts made and to be performed wholly within the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws requiring application of the law of any other jurisdiction.

(b) Each Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence, and will not permit any Subsidiary to 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 any Secured Party or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or the transactions relating hereto 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 of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

-47-

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any right it may have to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other theory). Each party hereto (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other person has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other person would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this clause (c).

(d) Each Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, 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 in any court referred to in clause (b) above. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(e) No claim may be made by any grantor against Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, representative, agent, or attorney-in-fact of any of them for any special, indirect, consequential, or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission, or event occurring in connection herewith, and each grantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to xxx upon any claim for such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(f) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, all rights of rescission, setoff, counterclaims, and other defenses in connection with the repayment of the Secured Obligations.

Section 30. New Subsidiaries.

Pursuant to Section 6.14 of the Credit Agreement, certain Subsidiaries (whether by acquisition or creation) of any Grantor are required to enter into this Agreement by executing and delivering in favor of Administrative Agent a Joinder to this Agreement in substantially the form of Annex 1. Upon the execution and delivery of Annex 1 by any such new Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Guarantor or Grantor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Guarantor or Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor and Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor or Grantor hereunder.

-48-

Section 31. Administrative Agent.

Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Administrative Agent” shall be a reference to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties.

Section 32. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Agreement is a Loan Document.

Trademark Security Agreement

This Trademark Security Agreement (this “Trademark Security Agreement”) is made this [_____] day of [_________], 20__, by and among Grantors listed on the signature pages hereof (collectively, jointly and severally, “Grantors” and each individually “Grantor”), and Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking corporation, in its capacity as agent for the Lenders and the other Secured Parties (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”).

W i t n e s s e t h:

Whereas, pursuant to the Guaranty and Security Agreement, Grantors are required to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, this Trademark Security Agreement;

Section 1. Defined Terms.

All initially capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Guaranty and Security Agreement or, if not defined therein, in the Credit Agreement, and this Trademark Security Agreement shall be subject to the rules of construction set forth in Section 1(b) of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, which rules of construction are incorporated herein by this reference, mutatis mutandis.

Section 2. Grant of Security Interest in Trademark Collateral.

Each Grantor hereby unconditionally grants, assigns, and pledges to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties, to secure the Secured Obligations, a continuing security interest (referred to in this Trademark Security Agreement as the “Security Interest”) in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising and wherever located (collectively, the “Trademark Collateral”):

(1) all domestic, foreign and multinational trademarks, service marks, trade names, corporate names, company names, business names, fictitious business names, trade dress, trade styles, logos, Internet domain names, other indicia of origin or source identification, and general intangibles of a like nature, whether registered or unregistered, and with respect to any and all of the foregoing:

(i) all registrations and applications for registration thereof including the registrations and applications listed in Schedule I attached hereto,

(ii) all extension and renewals thereof,

(iii) all of the goodwill of the business connected with the use of and symbolized by any of the foregoing,

(iv) all rights to xxx or otherwise recover for any past, present and future infringement, dilution, or other violation thereof,

(v) all Proceeds of the foregoing, including license fees, royalties, income, payments, claims, damages and proceeds of suit now or hereafter due and/or payable with respect thereto, and

(vi) all other rights of any kind accruing thereunder or pertaining thereto throughout the world.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Trademark Collateral include or the security interest granted hereunder attach to any “intent‑to‑use” trademark application to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of any registration issuing from such intent‑to‑use trademark application under applicable federal law; provided that, upon filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office of an amendment to allege use pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1051(c) or a statement of use under 15 U.S.C. § 1051(d) (or any successor provisions), such intent‑to‑use application shall be considered Trademark Collateral.

Section 3. Security For Secured Obligations.

This Trademark Security Agreement and the Security Interest created hereby secures the payment and performance of 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 Administrative Agent, the other 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.

Section 4. Security Agreement.

The Security Interest granted pursuant to this Trademark Security Agreement is granted in conjunction with the security interests granted to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to the Guaranty and Security Agreement. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges and affirms that the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent with respect to the Security Interest in the Trademark Collateral made and granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Guaranty and Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein. To the extent there is any inconsistency between this Trademark Security Agreement and the Guaranty and Security Agreement, the Guaranty and Security Agreement shall control.

Section 5. Counterparts.

This Trademark Security Agreement is a Loan Document. This Trademark Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Trademark Security Agreement constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Trademark Security Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Trademark Security Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement.

Section 6. Choice of Law, Jurisdiction and Venue, Jury Trial Waiver, And Judicial Reference Provision.
