security interest until such time as payment in full of the Debt
underlying the Akzo Security Interest Collateral has been made and, at
such time, a first priority security interest in the Akzo Security
Interest Collateral, securing the payment of the Obligations, and all
filings and other actions necessary or desirable to perfect and protect
such security interest have been duly taken.
(g) With the exception of the consent of the Collateral Agent,
no consent of any other Person and no authorization, approval or other
action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority
or regulatory body or other Person is
-5-

required (i) for the assignment and grant by such Company Party of the
security interest assigned and granted hereby or for the execution,
delivery or performance of this Agreement by such Company Party, (ii)

interest), except for the filing of financing and continuation
statements under the Uniform Commercial Code, which financing statements
have been duly filed, and the filing and recordal of this Agreement

Person. The Company Parties are not aware of any infringement of any
item of Intellectual Property Collateral.
(j) Such Company Party has taken all necessary steps to use
consistent standards of quality in the manufacture, distribution and

promptly execute and deliver, and use its best efforts to cause to be executed
and delivered, all further instruments and documents, and take all further
action, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Holders may request, in
order to perfect and protect any security interest assigned and granted or
purported to be assigned and granted hereby or to enable the Holders to exercise
and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any part of the
Intellectual Property Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each Company Party will execute and file such financing or

authorizes the Holders to modify this Agreement by amending Schedules I, II, III
and IV (and will cooperate with the Holders in effecting any such amendment) to
include any patent, patent application, trademark or service xxxx registration,
trademark or service xxxx application, copyright registration, copyright
application or license which becomes part of the Intellectual Property
Collateral under this Section.
(e) With respect to each patent, patent application, trademark or
service xxxx registration, trademark or service xxxx application, copyright

consent of the Holders, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld,

trademark or service xxxx, or copyright identified in Schedules I, II and III,
or abandon any right to file an application for letters patent, trademark or
service xxxx registration, or copyright registration, or abandon any pending
application for a letters patent, trademark or service xxxx registration, or
