 our secured Guarantors, in each case other than certain excluded assets and subject to permitted liens.  Such collateral securities are secured equally and ratably with our and the Guarantors’ obligations under our Credit Agreement.  For a list of our subsidiaries the capital stock of which has been pledged to secure All the Notes, see Exhibit 22.1 to this Report.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the indentures governing All the Notes, subject to the terms of the Security Agreement relating to All the Notes provide for (among other available remedies) the foreclosure upon and sale of the Collateral (including the pledged stock) and the distribution of the net proceeds of any such sale to the holders of All the Notes, the lenders under the Credit Agreement and the holders of any other permitted first priority secured obligations on a pro rata basis, subject to any prior liens on the collateral.

No appraisal of the value of the collateral securities has been made, and the value of the collateral securities in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. Consequently, liquidating the collateral securities securing All the Notes may not produce proceeds in an amount sufficient to pay any amounts due on All the Notes.

The security agreement relating to All the Notes provides that the representative of the lenders under our Credit Agreement will initially control actions with respect to that collateral and, consequently, exercise of any right, remedy or power with respect to enforcing interests in or realizing upon such collateral will initially be at the direction of the representative of the lenders.
