| 14 |
Section 4.16. Status of Collateral as Personal Property. Each Obligor shall at all times maintain the Collateral as personal property and not affix any of the Collateral to any real property in a manner which would change its nature from personal property to real property or a Fixture, unless the real property to which the Collateral is to be affixed is owned by an Obligor and the Administrative Agent has a first priority perfected lien on such real property.
Section 4.17. Regulatory Approvals. Each Obligor shall promptly, and at its expense, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all applications, certificates, instruments, registration statements, and all other documents and papers the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and as may be required by law to acquire any Governmental Approvals or the consent, approval, registration, qualification or authorization of any other Person deemed necessary for the effective exercise of any of the rights under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Obligor shall take any reasonable action which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to transfer and assign to the Administrative Agent, or to such one or more third parties as the Administrative Agent may designate, or to a combination of the foregoing, each Government Approval of such Obligor. To enforce the provisions of this subsection, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent is empowered to request the appointment of a receiver from any court of competent jurisdiction. Such receiver shall be instructed to seek from the Governmental Authority an involuntary transfer of control of each such Governmental Approval for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser to whom control will ultimately be transferred. Each Obligor hereby agrees to authorize such an involuntary transfer of control upon the request of the receiver so appointed, and, if such Obligor shall refuse to authorize the transfer, its approval may be required by the court. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, such Obligor shall further use its reasonable best efforts to assist in obtaining Governmental Approvals, if required, for any action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the preparation, execution and filing with the Governmental Authority of such Obligor’s portion of any necessary application for the approval of the transfer or assignment of any portion of the assets (including any Governmental Approval) of such Obligor. Because each Obligor agrees that the Administrative Agent’s remedy at law for failure of such Obligor to comply with the provisions of this Section would be inadequate and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, such Obligor agrees that the covenants contained in this Section may be specifically enforced, and such Obligor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.
Section 4.18. Insurance. Each Obligor shall insure, repair and replace the Collateral of such Obligor in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Credit Agreement. All proceeds derived from insurance on the Collateral shall be subject to the security interests of the Administrative Agent hereunder for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties.
Section 4.19. Covenants Relating to the Assigned Agreements.
(a) Each Obligor shall, at its expense, (i) furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of all material notices, requests and other documents received by such Obligor under or pursuant to the Assigned Agreements, and such other material information and reports regarding the Assigned Agreements and (ii) upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, make to any other party to any Assigned Agreement such demands and requests for information and reports or for action as an Obligor is entitled to make thereunder.
| 15 |
(b) Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, no Obligor shall (i) cancel or terminate any Assigned Agreement of such Obligor or consent to or accept any cancellation or termination thereof; (ii) amend or otherwise modify, in any material respect, any Assigned Agreement of such Obligor or give any consent, waiver or approval thereunder; (iii) waive any default under or breach of any Assigned Agreement of such Obligor; or (iv) take any other action in connection with any Assigned Agreement of such Obligor, in each case which would materially impair the value of the interest or rights of such Obligor thereunder or which would materially impair the interests or rights of the Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE 5
REMEDIES
Section 5.01. General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Credit Documents, in any Swap Agreement or by applicable Laws (including, but not limited to, levy of attachment, garnishment and the rights and remedies set forth in the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (regardless of whether the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and further, the Administrative Agent may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of others, (a) enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Obligors, take possession of the Collateral, (b) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (c) require the Obligors to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent at the expense of the Obligors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties, (d) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (e) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or process of law, all of which each of the Obligors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by Law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion (subject to any and all mandatory legal requirements). Neither the Administrative Agent’s compliance with any applicable Laws in the conduct of such sale, nor its disclaimer of any warranties relating to the Collateral, shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale. Each of the Obligors agrees that the repurchase of inventory by a Manufacturer pursuant to a repurchase agreement with the Administrative Agent shall be a commercially reasonable method of disposition, and that any sale of Inventory by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties under a Repurchase Agreement or the like shall not be deemed to be a transfer subject to UCC §9-618 or any similar provision of any other applicable law, and each of the Obligors waives any provision of such laws to that effect. In addition to all other sums due the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to the Secured Obligations, the Obligors shall pay the Administrative Agent and each of the Secured Parties all reasonable and actual documented costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any such Secured Party, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, in obtaining or liquidating the Collateral, in enforcing payment of the Secured Obligations, or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding by or against the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties or the Obligors concerning any matter arising out of or connected with this Agreement, any Collateral or the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing arising in, arising under or related to a case under the Bankruptcy Code. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Obligor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Obligors in accordance with the notice provisions of the Credit Agreement at least ten (10) days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by law, any Secured Party may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Obligors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by Law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place.
| 16 |
Section 5.02. Remedies Relating to Accounts. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, whether or not the Administrative Agent has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce any Obligor’s rights against any Account Debtors on such Obligor’s Accounts. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall be solely for the Administrative Agent’s own convenience and that such Obligor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Proceeds or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein. To the extent required by the Administrative Agent, each Obligor agrees to execute any document or instrument, and to take any action, necessary under applicable law (including the Assignment of Claims Act) in order for the Administrative Agent to exercise its rights and remedies (or be able to exercise its rights and remedies at some future date) with respect to any Accounts of such Obligor where the account debtor is a Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall have no liability or responsibility to any Obligor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance. Each Obligor hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, members, counsel, agents, representatives, advisors and affiliates from and against all liabilities, damages, losses, actions, claims, judgments, costs, expenses, charges and reasonable attorneys’ fees suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties (each, an “Indemnified Party”) because of the maintenance of the foregoing arrangements except as relating to or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party or its officers, employees or agents. In the case of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding, the foregoing indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by an Obligor, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any other Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto.
Section 5.03. Access. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Obligors without cost or charge to the Administrative Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Obligors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral. If the Administrative Agent exercises its right to take possession of the Collateral, each Obligor shall also at its expense perform any and all other steps reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to preserve and protect the security interest hereby granted in the Collateral, such as placing and maintaining signs indicating the security interests of the Administrative Agent, appointing overseers for the Collateral and maintaining inventory records.
Section 5.04. Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. The failure by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Swap Agreement or as provided by applicable Laws, or any delay by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. Without limitation to the forgoing, each of the Obligors acknowledges that it is not a beneficiary of, has no right to require the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to enforce, any Repurchase Agreement. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by law, neither the Administrative Agent, the other Secured Parties, nor any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties may have.
| 17 |
Section 5.05. Retention of Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent may, after providing the notices required by Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC (or any successor sections of the UCC) or otherwise complying with the notice requirements of the applicable Laws of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain all or any portion of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.
Section 5.06. Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization (including but not limited to repurchase by a Manufacturer) are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Obligors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, together with the reasonable and actual costs of collection and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Obligors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.
Section 5.07. Other Security. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real and other personal property and securities owned by an Obligor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, Liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or any of the Administrative Agent’s rights or the Secured Obligations under this Agreement, under any other of the Credit Documents or under any Swap Agreement.
Section 5.08. Application of Proceeds. After the occurrence of an Event of Default (or after the Commitments shall automatically terminate prior to the time of their natural expiration and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts under the Credit Documents (including without limitation the maximum amount of all contingent liabilities under Letters of Credit) shall automatically become due and payable in accordance with the terms of such Section), any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent, any of the Lenders or any Swap Provider in cash or its equivalent, will be applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 8.06 of the Credit Agreement, and each Obligor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of such payments and proceeds and acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such proceeds in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, notwithstanding any entry to the contrary upon any of its books and records.

Section 6.01.10. To do and perform all such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem to be necessary in connection with the Collateral.
| 19 |
This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations that survive termination of the Credit Documents pursuant to the stated terms thereof) remain outstanding, any Credit Document or Swap Agreement is in effect, and until all of the Commitments shall have been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral.
Section 6.02. Assignment by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may from time to time assign the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof and/or the Collateral or any portion thereof to a successor Administrative Agent, and the assignee shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement in relation thereto.

Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Obligors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Obligors. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral in accordance with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.

ARTICLE 7
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 7.01. Costs of Counsel. If at any time hereafter, whether upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or not, the Administrative Agent employs counsel to prepare or consider amendments, waivers or consents with respect to this Agreement, or to take action or make a response in or with respect to any legal or arbitral proceeding relating to this Agreement or relating to the Collateral, or to protect the Collateral or exercise any rights or remedies under this Agreement or with respect to the Collateral, then the Obligors agree to promptly pay upon demand any and all such reasonable and actual documented costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, all of which costs and expenses shall constitute Secured Obligations hereunder.
Section 7.02. Continuing Agreement. This Agreement shall be a continuing agreement in every respect and shall remain in full force and effect so long as any of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations that survive termination of the Credit Documents pursuant to the stated terms thereof) remain outstanding, any Credit Document or Swap Agreement is in effect, and until all of the Commitments shall have been terminated.
