SECTION 2 GUARANTEE

2.1 Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally with the other Guarantors, absolutely and unconditionally, guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and their respective permitted successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance of all Secured Obligations, whether primary or secondary (whether by way of endorsement or otherwise), whether now existing or hereafter arising, whether or not from time to time reduced or extinguished (except by payment thereof) or hereafter increased or incurred, whether enforceable or unenforceable, whether or not discharged, stayed or otherwise affected by any Debtor Relief Law or proceeding thereunder, whether created directly with the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or acquired by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party through assignment or endorsement or otherwise, whether matured or unmatured, whether joint or several, as and when the same become due and payable (whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory repayment or otherwise), in accordance with the terms of any such instruments evidencing any such obligations, including all renewals, extensions or modifications thereof (all of the foregoing being hereafter collectively referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

2.2 Right of Contribution and Reimbursement. If any payment shall be required to be made to the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party under this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that it will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, such amounts to the Borrower so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Collateral Agent or such Secured Parties under or in connection with the Financing Documents. The Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantor to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, and the Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, as the Borrower is part of an integrated financial enterprise to which the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantor are a party and the Subsidiary Guarantor will benefit, directly or indirectly, from the extensions of credit to the Borrower under the Financing Agreement, the Subsidiary Guarantor shall have a right of reimbursement and indemnity from the Borrower for any amount paid by the Subsidiary Guarantor in lieu of a right of contribution between the Subsidiary Guarantor and the Borrower.

2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any Guarantors hereunder, or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, or the receipt of any amounts by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, none of the Guarantors shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against the Borrower or the other Guarantors or against any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations until payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of the Commitments. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation, reimbursement or contribution rights at any time prior to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of the Commitments, amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as set forth in the Financing Agreement.

2.4 Modification of Financing Documents, etc. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall incur any liability to any Guarantor as a result of any of the following, and none of the following shall impair or release this Agreement or any of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Agreement:

(a) any change or extension of the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renewal or alteration of all or any portion of, the Guaranteed Obligations;

(b) any action under or in respect of the Financing Agreement or any other Financing Document in the exercise of any remedy, power or privilege contained therein or available to any of them at law, in equity or otherwise, or waiver or refraining from exercising any such remedies, powers or privileges;

(d) any extension or waiver of the time for performance by any Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person of, or compliance with, any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under a Financing Document or waiver of such performance or compliance or consent to a failure of, or departure from, such performance or compliance;

(e) the taking and holding of security or collateral for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or the sale, exchange, release, disposal of or other dealing with any property pledged, mortgaged or conveyed, or in which the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties have been granted a Lien, to secure any Indebtedness of any Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person to the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties;

(f) the release of anyone who may be liable in any manner for the payment of any amounts owed by any Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party;

(g) any modification or termination of the terms of any intercreditor or subordination agreement pursuant to which claims of other creditors of any Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person are subordinated to the claims of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party; or

(h) any application of any sums by whomever paid or however realized to any Guaranteed Obligations owing by any Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Person to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in such manner as the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall determine in its reasonable discretion.

2.5 Nature of Guaranty.

(a) Each Guarantor agrees that this Agreement is a continuing, unconditional guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, and that its obligations under this Agreement shall be primary, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, any defenses to enforcement it may have (now or in the future) by reason of:

(i) the genuineness, legality, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, or supplement to, the Financing Agreement, any other Financing Document, or any other agreement, document or instrument to which the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates is or may become a party (including any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from any extension of additional credit or otherwise);

(ii) any action under or in respect of the Financing Agreement, any other Financing Document, in the exercise of any remedy, power or privilege contained therein or available to any of them at law, in equity or otherwise, or waiver or refraining from exercising any such remedies, powers or privileges (including any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of, the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligation of any Loan Party under any Financing Document, any Interest Rate Agreement or any rescission, waiver, amendment or other modification of any Financing Document or any other agreement, including any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from any extension of additional credit or otherwise);

(iii) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement, the Financing Agreement, any other Financing Document, or the waiver or consent by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Financing Agreement, or any other Financing Document;

(iv) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in respect of such security or guaranty (including, without limitation, the release of any such security or guaranty);

(v) any structural change in, restructuring of or other similar organizational change of the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates;

(vi) any other action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor; or

(vii) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or manner of administering the Loans, or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Party that might vary the risk of any guarantor or otherwise operate as a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety;

it being agreed by each Guarantor that, subject to the first sentence of Section 2.2, its obligations under this Agreement shall not be discharged until the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

(b) Each Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Guaranteed Obligations and its obligations under this Agreement are not and shall not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses of any kind (other than the defense of payment) against the Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties, any Guarantor or the Borrower whether now existing or which may arise in the future.

(c) Each Guarantor hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Agreement, and all dealings among the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Agreement.

2.6 Termination; Reinstatement.

(a) Subject to clause (c) below, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

(b) No payment made by the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person received or collected by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party from the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or application at any time, or from time to time, in reduction of, or in payment of, the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the obligations of the Guarantors or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the obligations of the Guarantors), remain liable for the obligations of the Guarantors up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that, if any payment made by the Borrower or any other Person applied to the Guaranteed Obligations is at any time avoided, annulled, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or is repaid in whole or in part pursuant to a good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance claim, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be refunded by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to the Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person, including, without limitation, any Guarantor, under any Applicable Law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, each Guarantor’s liability hereunder (and any Lien or Collateral securing such liability) shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made, and, if prior thereto, this Agreement shall have been canceled or surrendered (and if any Lien or Collateral securing such Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender), this Agreement (and such Lien or Collateral) shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of such Guarantor in respect of the amount of such payment (or any Lien or Collateral securing such obligation).

2.7 Payments. Any payments by the Guarantors shall be made to the Collateral Agent, to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the Financing Documents, in immediately available Dollars to an account designated by the Collateral Agent or at the Collateral Agent’s Office, or at any other address that may be specified in writing from time to time by the Collateral Agent.

2.8 Waivers. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Guarantor expressly, unconditionally and irrevocably waives all of the following rights and defenses (and agrees not to take advantage of or assert any such right or defense):

(a) any rights it may now or in the future have under any statute, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to proceed in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations against the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or against any security for or other guaranty of the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Guarantor;

(b) any defense based upon the failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to commence an action in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations against the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or any security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(c) any right to insist upon, plead or in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshalling of assets or redemption laws, or exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations under, or the enforcement by the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties of this Agreement;

(d) any right of diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice of whatever kind or nature (except as specifically required herein or in the other Financing Documents) with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto;

(e) any and all rights to notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of acceptance of, or proof of reliance upon, this Agreement by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party; and

(f) any defense or right of setoff or recoupment or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment) against or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

Each Guarantor agrees that any notice or directive given at any time to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party which is inconsistent with any of the foregoing waivers shall be null and void and may be ignored by the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or introduced as evidence in any litigation relating to this Agreement for the reason that such pleading or introduction would be at variance with the written terms of this Agreement, unless the Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders have specifically agreed otherwise in writing. The foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Financing Agreement, the other Financing Documents, and, but for this Agreement and such waivers, the Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties would decline to enter into the Financing Agreement, and the other Financing Documents.

2.9 Demand by the Collateral Agent. In addition to the terms set forth in this Section 2 and in no manner imposing any limitation on such terms, if all or any portion of the then outstanding Guaranteed Obligations are declared to be immediately due and payable, then the Guarantors shall, upon demand in writing therefor by the Collateral Agent to the Guarantors, pay all or such portion of the outstanding Guaranteed Obligations due hereunder then declared due and payable.

2.10 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Collateral Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall, enforce against the Guarantors their obligations and liabilities hereunder and exercise such other rights and remedies as may be available to the Collateral Agent hereunder, under the Financing Agreement, the other Financing Documents or otherwise.

2.11 Benefits of Guaranty. The provisions of this Agreement are for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, the obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under the Financing Documents. In the event all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations are transferred, endorsed or assigned by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to any Person or Persons as permitted under the Financing Agreement, any reference to an “Collateral Agent”, or “Secured Party” herein shall be deemed to refer equally to such Person or Persons.

2.12 Bankruptcy Limitations on Guarantors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.1, it is the intention of each Guarantor and the Secured Parties that, in any proceeding involving the bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution or insolvency or any similar proceeding with respect to any Guarantor or its assets, the amount of such Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Secured Parties) shall be equal to, but not in excess of, the maximum amount thereof not subject to avoidance or recovery by operation of Debtor Relief Laws after giving effect to Section 2.2. To that end, but only in the event and to the extent that after giving effect to Section 2.2, such Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Secured Parties) or any payment made pursuant to such Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Secured Parties) would, but for the operation of the first sentence of this Section 2.12, be subject to avoidance or recovery in any such proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws after giving effect to Section 2.2, the amount of such Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Secured Parties) shall be limited to the largest amount which, after giving effect thereto, would not, under Debtor Relief Laws, render such Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Secured Parties) unenforceable or avoidable or otherwise subject to recovery under Debtor Relief Laws. To the extent any payment actually made pursuant to the Guaranteed Obligations exceeds the limitation of the first sentence of this Section 2.12 and is otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events be limited to the amount by which such actual payment exceeds such limitation and the Guaranteed Obligations as limited by the first sentence of this Section 2.12 shall in all events remain in full force and effect and be fully enforceable against such Guarantor. The first sentence of this Section 2.12 is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder against such Guarantor in such proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by Debtor Relief Laws and neither such Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under such sentence that would not otherwise be available under Debtor Relief Laws in such proceeding.

To induce the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Financing Agreement and the other Financing Documents and to induce the Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Borrower under the Financing Agreement and the other Secured Parties to enter into the other Financing Documents, each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, as of the Closing Date and all other applicable dates (if any) specified in the applicable Financing Documents, that:

4.1 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and other Permitted Liens, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. No effective financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral of such Grantor is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as contemplated by this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien with respect to such Permitted Lien and except as otherwise permitted by the Financing Agreement.

4.2 Perfected First Priority Liens. This Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral of such Grantor and the proceeds thereof. In the case of any Pledged Stock that is a Certificated Security, when all certificates representing any such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Collateral Agent together with transfer powers duly indorsed in blank, (b) the other Collateral that can be perfected by the filing of financing statements under the UCC, when financing statements specified on Schedule 3 (which the Collateral Agent is authorized to file) are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3, (c) the Collateral Accounts and the related Account Collateral, when the Account Control Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties thereto, and (d) to the extent applicable, all other actions required by Sections 5.1, 5.7(c) and 5.8 have been duly taken, the security interest created under this Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of each Grantor in such Collateral and the Proceeds thereof, as security for the Secured Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person except Permitted Liens.

4.3 Jurisdiction of Organization; Chief Executive Office.

As of the Closing Date, the Inventory and the Equipment owned by such Grantor (other than Pledgor) with a value in excess of $1,000,000 (other than any mobile goods or goods in transit or any Equipment in the possession of third parties in the ordinary course of business or at another location being serviced or repaired) are kept at one or more of the locations listed on Schedule 3.4 and the sites of the Projects and are not in the possession of any bailee or warehouseman.

4.5 Farm Products. None of the Collateral constitutes, or is the Proceeds of, Farm Products.

(c) As of the Closing Date, all Pledged Stock listed on Schedule 3.6(c) are Certificated Securities and all certificates representing such Pledged Stock expressly provide (and the Governing Documents pursuant to which they are issued expressly provide) that such interests are “securities” governed by Article 8 of the UCC as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction. Each Governing Document pursuant to which any Pledged Stock constituting limited liability company interests is issued permits the Collateral Agent or its nominee or assignee to become a member of the limited liability company without the necessity of any consent of any member or any other action other than the agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of such Governing Documents.

4.7 Receivables.

(a) No amount payable to such Grantor (other than Pledgor) under or in connection with any Receivable with a value in excess of $1,000,000 is evidenced by any Instrument or Chattel Paper which has not been delivered to the Collateral Agent, or, in the case of Electronic Chattel Paper, with respect to which the Collateral Agent does not have “control” within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the UCC.

Upon the filing of a financing statement covering any Commercial Tort Claim referred to in Section 5.8 hereof against such Grantor (other than Pledgor) in the jurisdiction specified in Schedule 3 hereto, the security interest granted in such Commercial Tort Claim will constitute a valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase such Collateral from such Grantor, which security interest shall be prior to all other Liens on such Collateral except for Permitted Liens.

SECTION 6 REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

6.1 Certain Matters Relating to Receivables. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Receivables pledged hereunder in accordance with Section 5.6, subject to the Collateral Agent’s direction and control, and the Collateral Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time. If required by the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of such Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two (2) Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent if required, in a collateral account maintained by the Collateral Agent, subject to a control agreement if required, subject to withdrawal by the Collateral Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in Section 6.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor.

6.2 Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable.

(a) The Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with obligors under the Receivables pledged hereunder and parties to the Contracts pledged hereunder to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any such Receivables or Contracts.

(b) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Receivables and parties to the Contracts that the Receivables and the Contracts pledged hereunder have been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables and Contracts pledged hereunder to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. The exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under any of such Receivables and Contracts. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any such Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any such Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(d) Each Grantor hereby consents, on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries that are Grantors, to the collateral assignment and pledge to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties of each of the Contracts pledged hereunder to which it is a party by any other Grantor hereunder.

6.3 Pledged Stock.

(a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Stock, in each case paid in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuing Entity or maker and consistent with past practice, to the extent permitted in the Financing Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Investment Property; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other organizational right exercised or other action taken which would materially impair the Pledged Stock or which conflicts with or results in any violation of any provision of the Financing Agreement, this Agreement or any other Financing Document.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given written notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property pledged hereunder and make application thereof to the Secured Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine, and (ii) such Grantor shall or shall cause any or all of such Investment Property to be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, as applicable, and the Collateral Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant issuer or issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of such Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any issuer, or upon the exercise by such Grantor or the Collateral Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of such Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to such Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each relevant Issuing Entity of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) 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, and (ii) pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Collateral Agent upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

6.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over to the Collateral Agent. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables pledged hereunder, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds of Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor, if required). All Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a collateral account maintained by the Collateral Agent, subject to a control agreement, if required. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral Agent in any such collateral account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as Collateral for all the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.5.

6.5 Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Collateral Agent’s election, the Collateral Agent may apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting cash, checks or near-cash items, whether or not held in any collateral account, in payment of the Secured Obligations.

6.6 UCC and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to Section 6.5, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith 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 Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the UCC, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Sale of Pledged Stock.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, 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 Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock 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.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done, and to cause the relevant Issuing Entities to do or cause to be done, all such acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 6.6 or this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law; provided, however, that no Grantor shall be required to, or to cause any issuer to, take actions to register any Pledged Stock to be sold under the provisions of the Securities Act, or provisions of the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, except that nothing in this proviso shall restrict in any way the rights of the Collateral Agent to conduct a public sale of any Pledged Stock. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred.

6.8 Subordination. Each Grantor hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, unless otherwise agreed by the Collateral Agent, all Indebtedness owing by it to any other Grantor shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations.

6.9 Deficiency. Each Grantor (other than the Pledgor) shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 7 THE COLLATERAL AGENT

7.1 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6 or 6.7, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v) (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (D) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (F) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (G) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (H) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Collateral Agent, any Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent acknowledges that as of the Closing Date it holds the Pledged Stock identified on Schedule 3.6(d), together with undated transfer powers, at its address for notices set forth in Section 8.2.

7.3 Authorization to File Financing Statements.

(a) Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and continuation statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Collateral Agent reasonably determines reasonably necessary or appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor (other than the Pledgor and the Borrower) authorizes the Collateral Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets,” in each case “whether now owned or hereafter acquired and wherever located,” in any such financing statements. The Borrower authorizes the Collateral Agent to use the collateral description in Section 4 hereof and to include the exclusions described in clause (ii) of the proviso thereof. Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent in any such financing statements to use the collateral descriptions in the subsections of Section 4 hereof referred to in clause (i) of the proviso of the introductory paragraph of Section 3 herein but such collateral description does not have to exclude or describe as excluded any property described in the proviso after the last item of Collateral in Section 3 herein, including, without limitation, the Excluded Assets. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Collateral Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the Closing Date.

(b) At any time and from time to time, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to such Grantor or otherwise authorize the filing of such instruments as such Grantor shall reasonably request, including any financing statement amendment, to confirm, evidence or otherwise reflect in the public record the exclusion from the Collateral of all or any portion of the property of such Grantor that does not constitute Collateral.

7.4 Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral 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 Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by this Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting 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.

SECTION 8 MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Amendments in Writing.

(a) None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 9.10 of the Financing Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1(a), the Grantors and the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) may (but shall have no obligation to) amend or supplement this Agreement or the Security Documents without the consent of any other Secured Party: (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to make, complete or confirm any grant of Collateral permitted or required by this Agreement or any of the Security Documents or any release of any Collateral that is otherwise permitted under the terms of this Agreement and the Financing Agreement and permitted (if addressed therein, or, otherwise, not prohibited) by the terms of the other applicable Financing Documents; (iii) to correct any typographical errors or other similar mistakes that do not modify the intended rights and obligations of the parties hereto; (iv) to provide for, evidence or effectuate other actions that are permitted by the Financing Agreement and not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement and the other applicable Financing Documents.

8.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 11.1 of the Financing Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Grantor shall be addressed to such Grantor at its notice address set forth in Schedule 1.

8.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

8.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Each Grantor agrees, on a joint and several basis, to pay or reimburse the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent for all their costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents to which such Grantor is a party, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to pay, on a joint and several basis, and to save the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Each Grantor agrees to pay, on a joint and several basis, and to save the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 11.4 of the Financing Agreement. To the extent that the foregoing undertakings to pay, indemnify and save harmless may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they violate any law or public policy, each Grantor shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to contribute under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnifiable liabilities incurred.

(d) The agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive repayment of the Secured Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Financing Agreement and the other Financing Documents.

(e) Without prejudice to the rights provided to the Collateral Agent under any of the provisions of this Agreement, when the Collateral Agent incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and outside counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

8.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and their successors and assigns; provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

8.6 Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Purchasers provided by law, each Purchaser shall have the right, without notice to any Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Secured Obligations becoming due and payable by any Grantor and not paid by such Grantor (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such Secured Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, 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, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Purchaser, any affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor. Each Purchaser agrees promptly to notify the relevant Grantor and the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Purchaser, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application.

8.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

8.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8.9 Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

8.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Financing Documents represent the agreement of the Grantors, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Financing Documents.

8.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Financing Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof, in each case, located in New York County;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Grantor at its address referred to in Section 8.2 or at such other address of which the Collateral Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section 8.12 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

8.13 Acknowledgements. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents to which it is a party;

(b) neither the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, and the relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

Upon such termination, at the request and sole expense of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Grantor or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request, including any financing statement amendment, to evidence such termination.

(b) If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Financing Agreement, then the Collateral Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or authorize the filing of other documents reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral, and at the request and sole expense of the Borrower, a Grantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Capital Stock of such Grantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Financing Agreement, provided that in each case such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed by the Collateral Agent) prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral or Grantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail (subject to any applicable confidentiality restrictions), together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the terms of all of the Financing Documents and that the proceeds of such Collateral will be applied in accordance with the terms of the Financing Documents, if applicable.

8.18 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-in Action. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under this Agreement, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of a Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Omnibus Guarantee, Pledge and Security Agreement.

(8) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute one contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith by electronic or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other document or instrument, as applicable.

(9) Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Omnibus Guarantee, Pledge and Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(10) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED UNDER, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
