remaining to be paid. If any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant
to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Loans made pursuant to
such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, such
Borrowing shall immediately be converted into Base Rate Loans. All
prepayments shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal

have constituted Collateral on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date and
investments of the type that would have constituted Collateral on the

Domestic Subsidiary established or created in accordance with Section 8.16
(a "New Domestic Subsidiary") to execute and deliver the Subsidiary
Guaranty or such other guaranty of all Obligations and all obligations
under Interest Rate Agreement and Other Hedging Agreements in form and
substance satisfactory to Agent;
(c) Pledge of New Subsidiary Stock. Borrower agrees to pledge, or to cause its
Subsidiaries to Pledge (i) all of the capital stock of each new Domestic
Subsidiary and (ii) 65% of all capital stock of each new Foreign Subsidiary
established or created to Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors

(d) Grant of Security by New Subsidiaries. Borrower will cause each new
Domestic Subsidiary established or created in accordance with Section 8.16
and which is required to execute and deliver the Subsidiary Guaranty
pursuant to Section 7.12(b) to grant to Agent a first priority Lien on all
property (tangible and intangible) of such Subsidiary upon terms similar to
those set forth in the Security Documents as appropriate, and satisfactory
in form and substance to Agent and Required Lenders. Borrower shall cause
each Subsidiary, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge and deliver,
or cause the execution, acknowledgment and delivery of, and thereafter
register, file or record in any appropriate governmental office, any
document or instrument reasonably deemed by Agent to be necessary
-10-
or desirable for the creation and perfection of the foregoing Liens.
Borrower will cause each of its newly established Subsidiaries to take all
actions requested by Agent (including, without limitation, the filing of
UCC-1's) in connection with the granting of such security interests.
(e) Documentation for Additional Security. The security interests required to
be granted pursuant to this Section 7.12 shall be granted pursuant to such
security documentation (which shall be substantially similar to the
Security Documents already executed and delivered by Credit Parties)
satisfactory in form and substance to Agent and shall constitute valid and
enforceable perfected security interests prior to the rights of all third
Persons and subject to no other Liens except Permitted Liens. The
Additional Security Documents and other instruments related thereto shall
be duly recorded or filed in such manner and in such places and at such
times as are required by law to establish, perfect, preserve and protect
the Liens, in favor of Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors,
required to be granted pursuant to the Additional Security Document and,
all taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall be
paid in full by Borrower. At the time of the execution and delivery of the

Agent such agreements, opinions of counsel, title surveys, real estate
appraisals and other related documents as may be reasonably requested by
Agent to assure themselves that this Section 7.12 has been complied with.
(f) Foreign Subsidiaries Security. If following a change in the relevant
sections of the Code or the regulations, rules, rulings, notices or other
official pronouncements issued or promulgated thereunder, counsel for
Borrower reasonably acceptable to Agent does not within 30 days after a
request from Agent or the Required Lenders deliver evidence, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, with respect to any Foreign
Subsidiary which has not already had all of its stock pledged pursuant to
the Pledge Agreement that a pledge of 66-2/3% or more (in the case of any
direct Foreign Subsidiary) or all (in the case of any indirect Foreign
Subsidiary) of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital
stock of such Foreign Subsidiary entitled to vote, would cause the
undistributed earnings of such Foreign Subsidiary as determined for Federal
income tax purposes to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Foreign
Subsidiary's United States parent for Federal income tax purposes, then
that portion of such Foreign Subsidiary's outstanding capital stock not
theretofore pledged pursuant to the Pledge Agreement shall be pledged to
the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors pursuant to
the Pledge Agreement (or another pledge agreement in substantially similar
form, if needed), to the extent that entering into such Pledge Agreement is
permitted by the laws of the respective foreign jurisdiction and with all
documents delivered pursuant to this Section 7.12 to be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.
