(v) all confidential and proprietary information, including, without limitation, confidential and proprietary know-how, trade secrets, manufacturing and production processes and techniques, inventions, research and development information, databases and data, including, without limitation, technical data, financial, marketing and business data, pricing and cost information, business and marketing plans and customer and supplier lists and information (collectively, “Trade Secrets”), and all other intellectual, industrial and intangible property of any type, including, without limitation, industrial designs and mask works;

(vi) all registrations and applications for registration for any of the foregoing, together with all reissues, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, extensions, renewals and reexaminations thereof;

(viii) all agreements, permits, consents, orders and franchises relating to the license, development, use or disclosure of any of the foregoing to which such Grantor, now or hereafter, is a party or a beneficiary (“IP Agreements”); and

(ix) any and all claims for damages and injunctive relief for past, present and future infringement, dilution, misappropriation, violation, misuse or breach with respect to any of the foregoing, with the right, but not the obligation, to xxx for and collect, or otherwise recover, such damages;

(r) all books and records (including, without limitation, customer lists, credit files, printouts and other computer output materials and records) of such Grantor pertaining to any of the Collateral;

provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (A) motor vehicles the perfection of a security interest in which is excluded from the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction, (B) any Letter-of-Credit Rights to the extent any Grantor is required by applicable law to apply the Proceeds of such Letter-of-Credit Rights for a specified purpose or (C) any General Intangible, Investment Property or other rights of a Grantor arising under any contract, instrument, license or other document if (but only to the extent that) the grant of a security interest therein would constitute a violation of a valid and enforceable restriction in respect of such General Intangible, Investment Property or other rights in favor of a third party or under any law, regulation, permit, order or decree of any Governmental Authority, unless and until all required consents shall have been obtained (for the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions described herein are not negative pledges or similar undertakings in favor of a lender or other financial counterparty); provided further that the limitation set forth in clause (C) above shall not affect, limit, restrict or impair the grant by a Grantor of a security interest pursuant to this Agreement in any such Collateral to the extent that an otherwise applicable prohibition or restriction on such grant is rendered ineffective by the UCC. Each Grantor shall, if requested to do so by the Collateral Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such required consent that is reasonably obtainable with respect to Collateral which the Collateral Agent reasonably determines to be material.

Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, in the event that Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the United States Securities Act of 1933 would require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would require) (such law, rule or regulation, as amended or replaced with another rule or regulation, “Rule 3-16”) the filing with the SEC of separate financial statements of any Affiliate of the Company due to the fact that a security interest in such Affiliate’s Equity Interests has been granted hereunder as security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, of any Additional Secured Obligations (the “Rule 3-16 Additional Secured Obligations”), then, solely to the extent securing such Rule 3-16 Additional Secured Obligations, the Lien granted pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document in such Equity Interests (the “Rule 3-16 Excluded Collateral”) shall be deemed not to secure, or to constitute “Collateral” with respect to, such Rule 3-16 Additional Secured Obligations, in any event solely to the extent necessary and only for so long as required to cause the Company and its Affiliates to not be subject to such requirement. In such event, this Agreement may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Additional Secured Party, to the extent necessary to release the Lien granted hereunder in favor of the Collateral Agent on the Rule 3-16 Excluded Collateral solely with respect to the Rule 3-16 Additional Secured Obligations. In the event that Rule 3-16 is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to permit (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would permit) any Rule 3-16 Excluded Collateral to secure the Additional Secured Obligations in excess of the amount then pledged without the filing with the SEC (or any other Governmental Authority) of separate financial statements for such Affiliate of the Company, then the Equity Interest of such Affiliate will automatically be deemed to be a part of the Collateral for the relevant Additional Secured Obligations to the extent otherwise required by this Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph shall prevent or limit any pledge of Equity Interests or any other securities hereunder from securing the Notes Obligations at all times.

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the grant of security provided in this Section 2.01 and the provisions of any Intellectual Property Security Agreements, the provisions of this Section 2.01 shall control.

Section 2.02. Security for Secured Obligations. This Agreement secures, in the case of each Grantor, the payment of all Secured Obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, premiums, penalties, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise.

Section 2.03. Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in such Grantor’s Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) 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 the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (c) no Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Finance Document, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

Section 2.04. Delivery and Control of Security Collateral. (a) All certificates representing or evidencing the Pledged Equity and all instruments representing or evidencing the Pledged Debt in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $2,000,000 shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. During the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to Section 2.04(c), the Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and without notice to any Grantor, to (i) transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Security Collateral, subject only to the revocable rights specified in Section 2.10(a), (ii) exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, and (iii) convert Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets credited to any Securities Account to Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets held directly by the Collateral Agent, and to convert Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets held directly by the Collateral Agent to Security Collateral consisting of Financial Assets credited to any Securities Account.

(b) During the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to Section 2.04(c), promptly upon the request of the Collateral Agent, with respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that constitutes an Uncertificated Security, such Grantor will cause the issuer thereof either (i) to register the Collateral Agent as the registered owner of such Security or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record with such Grantor and the Collateral Agent that such issuer will comply with instructions with respect to such Security originated by the Collateral Agent without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated record to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. During the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to Section 2.04(c), with respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that is not an Uncertificated Security, promptly upon the request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.

(c) Nothing in Section 2.04(a) or Section 2.04(b) shall be construed to require any Grantor to enter into any control agreement with respect to any Deposit Account or Securities Account.

Section 2.05. Maintaining Electronic Chattel Paper, Transferable Records and Letter-of-Credit Rights and Giving Notice of Commercial Tort Claims. So long as the Discharge of Secured Obligations has not occurred:

(a) During the continuation of an Event of Default, promptly upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor will maintain (i) all Electronic Chattel Paper so that the Collateral Agent has control of the Electronic Chattel Paper in the manner specified in Section 9-105 of the UCC and (ii) all transferable records so that the Collateral Agent has control of the transferable records in the manner specified in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in the jurisdiction governing such transferable record; and

In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and, at the Collateral Agent’s direction during the continuation of an Event of Default, shall take) such commercially reasonable action as such Grantor (or the Collateral Agent) may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection thereof; provided that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to the Collateral Agent and to direct such obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Accounts, to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Accounts, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC.

(d) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership interest in any Intellectual Property Collateral after the date hereof (“After-Acquired Intellectual Property”) (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect thereto.

In each case, it will promptly cooperate as necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to make any necessary or reasonably desirable recordations with the U.S. Copyright Office, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or, with respect to any material foreign Trademark, any applicable foreign intellectual property registry, as appropriate.

(e) The Collateral Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Security Collateral pursuant to this Section 3.01, to deliver or otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Security Collateral: (i) any registration statement or prospectus, and all supplements and amendments thereto; (ii) any information and projections; and (iii) any other information in its possession relating to such Security Collateral.

(f) Each Grantor acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages that would be suffered by the Secured Parties by reason of the failure by such Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in subsection (d) above and, consequently, agrees that, if such Grantor shall fail to perform any of such covenants, it will pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the value of the Security Collateral on the date the Collateral Agent shall demand compliance with subsection (d) above.

INTERCREDITOR MATTERS

Section 4.01. Priority of Claims.

(a) Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing any Series of Secured Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, or any other applicable law or the Secured Agreements or any defect or deficiencies in the Liens securing the Secured Obligations of any Series or any other circumstance whatsoever (but, in each case, subject to Section 4.01(b), and subject, in the case of Rule 3-16 Collateral, to the last paragraph of Section 2.01), each Secured Party hereby agrees that the Liens securing each Series of Secured Obligations on any Collateral shall be of equal priority.

(b) It is acknowledged that the Secured Obligations of any Series may, subject to the limitations set forth in the then extant Secured Agreements, be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, Refinanced or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, all without affecting the priorities set forth in Section (a) above or Section 3.02 or the provisions of this Agreement defining the relative rights of the Secured Parties of any Series.

Section 4.02. Actions With Respect to Collateral.

(a) The Secured Parties, through their Authorized Representatives and as a condition of accepting the benefits of the security interests granted herein, agree that (i) only the Collateral Agent shall act or refrain from acting with respect to the Collateral, and then only on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative, (ii) the Collateral Agent shall not follow any instructions with respect to such Collateral from any Non-Controlling Authorized Representative (or any other Secured Party other than the Applicable Authorized Representative) and (iii) no Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or other Secured Party (other than the Applicable Authorized Representative) shall or shall instruct the Collateral Agent to, commence any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its security interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Collateral, whether under any First Lien Security Document, applicable law or otherwise, it being agreed that only the Collateral Agent, acting on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative and in accordance with the applicable First Lien Security Documents, shall be entitled to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies with respect to Collateral. Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens, the Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative) may deal with the Collateral as if such Applicable Authorized Representative had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or Non-Controlling Secured Party will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Collateral Agent, Applicable Authorized Representative or Controlling Secured Party or any other exercise by the Collateral Agent, Applicable Authorized Representative or Controlling Secured Party of any rights and remedies relating to the Collateral, or to cause the Collateral Agent to do so.

(b) Each of the Authorized Representatives agrees that it will not accept any Lien on any Collateral for the benefit of any Series of Secured Obligations (other than funds deposited for the discharge or defeasance of any Additional Secured Agreement) other than pursuant to the First Lien Security Documents, and upon executing this Agreement or an Additional Secured Party Consent, each Authorized Representative and the Series of Secured Parties for which it is acting hereunder agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the other First Lien Security Documents applicable to it.

(c) Each of the Secured Parties agrees that (i) it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the Secured Parties in all or any part of the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any of the Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative to enforce this Agreement and that (ii) if, notwithstanding clause (i), such Secured Party shall obtain possession of any Collateral or shall realize any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Collateral, pursuant to any First Lien Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or through any other exercise of remedies at any time prior to the Discharge of Secured Obligations, then it shall hold such Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the other Secured Parties and promptly transfer such Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Collateral Agent, to be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02 hereof.

Section 4.03. Reinstatement. In the event that any of the Secured Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under any Debtor Relief Law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be fully applicable thereto until all such Secured Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.

Section 4.04. Insurance. As between the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of the Applicable Authorized Representative, shall have the right to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Collateral.

Section 4.05. Refinancings. The Secured Obligations of any Series may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the refinancing transaction under any Secured Agreements) of any Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that the Authorized Representative of the holders of any such Indebtedness so Refinanced shall have executed an Additional Secured Party Consent on behalf of the holders of the Indebtedness to be Refinanced and the Company shall have delivered the certificate required by Section 6.10 with respect to such Indebtedness being Refinanced.

Section 4.06. Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee For Perfection.

(a) The Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4.06. Pending delivery to the Collateral Agent, each other Authorized Representative agrees to hold any Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee for the

benefit of each other Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4.06.

(b) The duties or responsibilities of the Collateral Agent and each other Authorized Representative under this Section 4.06 shall be limited solely to holding any Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Secured Parties therein.

Section 4.07. Existence and Amount of Liens and Obligations. Whenever the Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any Secured Obligations of any Series, or the Collateral subject to any Lien securing the Secured Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Authorized Representative and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided that if an Authorized Representative shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Collateral Agent or Authorized Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of the Company. The Collateral Agent and each Authorized Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any Secured Party or any other person as a result of such determination.

Section 4.08. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Article 4 are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Secured Parties in relation to one another.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the obligations of any Grantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the Secured Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms.
