ARTICLE III    
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Grantor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, that as of the Effective Date and as of each other date on
which the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Securities are increased
pursuant to the Indenture, as follows:
Section 3.1    Validity and Priority of Security Interest.
(a)    This Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent,
for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable
security interest in the Collateral and the proceeds thereof and (i) when the
Investment Property Collateral that consists of Equity Interests is delivered to
the Collateral Agent, the Lien created under this Agreement and the other
applicable Security Documents shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on and in
all right, title and interest of Grantor in such Investment Property Collateral,
in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (subject to
Permitted Liens) and (ii) when financing statements in appropriate form are
filed in the Filing Offices, the Lien created under this Agreement and the other
applicable Security Documents will constitute a fully perfected Lien on and in
all right, title and interest of Grantor in such Collateral in which a security
interest can be perfected by filing a financing statement in the United States,
in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (subject to
Permitted Liens).
(b)    Grantor agrees to the recordation of this Agreement or the Copyright,
Patent, and Trademark Agreements with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, together with the
financing statements in appropriate form filed in the Filing Offices. Upon
filing in the Filing Offices and, with respect to any Proprietary Rights
constituting Collateral specified in any Perfection Certificate, the United
States Patent and Trademark Office, the Lien created shall constitute a fully
perfected Lien on and interest in all right, title and interest of Grantor in
such Proprietary Rights in which a security interest may be perfected by filing
in the United States and its territories and possessions, in each case prior and
superior in right to any other Person (subject to Permitted Liens).
Section 3.2    Location of Collateral. The Perfection Certificate contains a
correct and complete list of Grantor’s jurisdiction of incorporation, the
location of its books and records relating to the Collateral, the locations of
the Collateral (other than Inventory that is in transit, consignments of
Inventory not in excess of $1,000,000, rolling stock, and Collateral in the
Collateral Agent’s possession or equipment in transit and equipment at other
locations for purposes of maintenance or repair), and the locations of all of
its other places of business. The Perfection Certificate correctly identifies
any of such facilities and locations that are not owned by Grantor where Grantor
develops, manufactures, uses, stores, markets, promotes or sells the Product and
sets forth the names of the owners and lessors or sublessors of such facilities
and locations.
Section 3.3    Exact Names. The name in which Grantor has executed this
Agreement is the exact name as it appears in Grantor’s organizational documents,
as filed with Grantor’s jurisdiction of incorporation. Except as set forth on
the Perfection Certificate or as permitted by the Indenture or this Agreement,
since the date of its organization, Grantor has not been known by or used any
other corporate or fictitious name, been a party to any merger or consolidation
or acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any Person.
Section 3.4    Accounts and Chattel Paper. The names of the obligors, amounts
owing, due dates and other information with respect to Grantor’s Accounts and
Chattel Paper that are Collateral are and will be correctly stated, in all
material respects, at the time furnished, in all records of Grantor relating
thereto and in all invoices furnished to the Collateral Agent by Grantor from
time to time.
Section 3.5    Documents, Instruments, and Chattel Paper. All documents,
instruments, and Chattel Paper of Grantor describing, evidencing, or
constituting Collateral, and all signatures and endorsements thereon, are and
will be complete, valid, and genuine in all material respects. All goods
evidenced by such documents, instruments, and Chattel Paper are and will be
owned by Grantor free and clear of all Liens (subject to Permitted Liens). If
Grantor retains possession of any Chattel Paper or other instruments, at the
Collateral Agent’s request upon an Event of Default, such Chattel Paper or
instruments shall be marked with the following legend: “This writing and the
obligations evidenced or served hereby are subject to the security interest of
U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Agent, for the benefit of
Collateral Agent and certain other secured parties.”
Section 3.6    Proprietary Rights. Schedule 6 of the Perfection Certificate sets
forth a correct and complete list of all of Grantor’s registered or applied for
patents, copyrights and trademarks constituting Collateral, in each case owned
by Grantor in its own name. None of the patents, copyrights or trademarks listed
in such Perfection Certificate is subject to any licensing agreement or similar
arrangement except as set forth therein.
Section 3.7    Investment Property.
(a)    Schedule 8 of the Perfection Certificate sets forth a correct and
complete list of all of the Investment Property Collateral owned by Grantor.
Grantor is the legal and beneficial owner of such Investment Property
Collateral, as so identified, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted
Liens), and has not sold, granted any option with respect to, assigned or
transferred, or otherwise disposed of any of its rights or interests therein
(other than pursuant to Permitted Liens). Furthermore, (i) to Grantor’s
knowledge, all Investment Property constituting an Equity Interest has been (to
the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such Investment Property)
duly authorized and validly issued by the Investment Property Issuer thereof and
are fully paid and non‑assessable, (ii) with respect to any certificates
delivered to the Collateral Agent representing an Equity Interest, either such
certificates are securities as defined in Article 8 of the UCC as a result of
actions by the Investment Property Issuer thereof or otherwise, or, if such
certificates are not securities as defined in Article 8 of the UCC, Grantor has
filed financing statements in appropriate form to perfect the security interest
of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties therein as a
General Intangible, and (iii) to Grantor’s knowledge, all Investment Property
that represents Indebtedness owed to Grantor has been duly authorized,
authenticated or issued and delivered by the Investment Property Issuer of such
Indebtedness is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Investment

ARTICLE IV    
COVENANTS
From the date hereof, and thereafter until this Agreement is terminated, Grantor
agrees as follows:
Section 4.1    General.
(a)    Grantor shall maintain at all times reasonably detailed, accurate (in all
material respects) and updated books and records pertaining to the Collateral
and promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent such information relating to the
Collateral as the Collateral Agent shall from time to time reasonably request.
(b)    The Collateral Agent may, and Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral
Agent to, at any time and from time to time, file financing statements,
continuation statements, and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral as
described in Section 2.1 or words of similar import and that contain any other
information required pursuant to Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency of
filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or
amendment, and Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to the Collateral
Agent promptly upon request. The Collateral Agent shall inform Grantor of any
such filing either prior to, or reasonably promptly after, such filing. Grantor
acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement covering
the Collateral or amendment or termination statement with respect to any
financing statement covering the Collateral without the prior written consent of
the Collateral Agent and agrees that it will not do so without such consent,
subject to Grantor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the UCC.
(c)    Grantor shall, at any time and from time to time, (i) notify, in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, any warehouseman, bailee or any
of Grantor’s agents or processors having possession of any Collateral consisting
of Inventory or Equipment with a Fair Market Value in excess of $1,000,000
(calculated based on Grantor’s estimate of the Fair Market Value of such
Inventory or Equipment to be possessed by such warehouseman, bailee, agent or
processor over the course of any calendar year on a weighted average basis) of
the security interest of the Collateral Agent in such Collateral (with a copy of
such notice sent to the Collateral Agent), (ii) use its commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain an acknowledgment, in form reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent or counsel to the Purchasers, from such warehouseman, bailee,
agent or processor, to the extent not already having otherwise entered into a
subordination agreement for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, stating that
the warehouseman, bailee, agent or processor holds such Collateral for the
Collateral Agent and (iii) take such steps as are necessary or as the Collateral
Agent may reasonably request (A) for the Collateral Agent to obtain “control” of
any Investment Property Collateral, deposit accounts, securities accounts,
commodity accounts, letter-of-credit rights, or Electronic Chattel Paper
constituting Collateral in excess of $1,000,000 individually or $2,500,000 in
the aggregate (other than Investment Property Collateral constituting Equity
Interests of a Subsidiary for which no minimum dollar amount shall apply), with
any agreements establishing control to be in form reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent or counsel to the Purchasers, and (B) to otherwise ensure the
continued perfection and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in
any of the Collateral (to the extent required hereunder) and of the preservation
of its rights therein. The dollar amount threshold described in clause (iii)(A)
of the preceding sentence as it relates to any deposit account, securities
account or commodity account shall be measured by reference to the closing
balance of such account as of each Business Day.
(d)    Grantor agrees to furnish to the Collateral Agent prompt written notice
of (i) any change in: (A) Grantor’s name; (B)  Grantor’s state or other place of
organization or form of organization, in each case at least fifteen (15) days
prior thereto; or (C) Grantor’s Federal Taxpayer Identification Number or
organizational identification number assigned to it by its jurisdiction of
incorporation or formation, or (ii) the acquisition by Grantor of any material
property for which additional filings or recordings are necessary to perfect and
maintain the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein (to the extent
perfection of the security interest in such property is required hereby or by
the terms of the Indenture). Grantor agrees not to effect or permit any change
referred to in the preceding sentence unless all filings are promptly made under
the UCC or other applicable law that are required in order for the Collateral
Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and
perfected, security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in the Collateral for
its benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties.
(e)    Grantor shall not (i) maintain any Collateral with a Fair Market Value in
excess of $1,000,000 (other than Inventory constituting Collateral in transit
and consignments of Inventory constituting Collateral not in excess of
$1,000,000, rolling stock, equipment in transit between locations set forth on
the Perfection Certificate, equipment at other locations for purposes of
maintenance or repair and Collateral in the Collateral Agent’s possession) at
any location other than those locations listed on the Perfection Certificate,
(ii) otherwise change or add to any of such locations, or (iii) change the
location of Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization from the location identified
on the Perfection Certificate, unless in each case it gives the Collateral Agent
prompt written notice thereof (but in any event in the case of clause (iii) not
later than fifteen (15) days prior thereto), and executes or authorizes the
filing of any and all financing statements and other documents that are
necessary or that the Collateral Agent reasonably requests in connection
therewith. In the event Grantor changes or adds any location of Collateral,
Grantor shall prepare and promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a revised
Perfection Certificate. Grantor agrees not to effect or permit any change
referred to in this Section 4.1(e) unless all filings are promptly made under
the UCC or other applicable law that are required in order for the Collateral
Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and
perfected security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in the Collateral for
its benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties.
(f)    Grantor agrees that it shall not have more than $1,000,000 on deposit in
any deposit account, securities account or commodity account constituting
Collateral (measured by reference to the closing balance of such Account as of
each Business Day) that is not subject to an Account Control Agreement.
Section 4.2    Perfection and Protection of Security Interest.
(a)    Grantor shall, at its expense, perform all steps necessary or otherwise
reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Majority
Holders) at any time to perfect, maintain, protect, and enforce the Collateral
Agent’s Liens, including: (i) filing and recording of the Copyright, Patent, and
Trademark Agreements, and amendments thereof in the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, and filing financing
statements or continuation statements in the respective Filing Office; (ii) to
the extent constituting Collateral, delivering to the Collateral Agent the
originals of all instruments, documents, and Chattel Paper (in each case in
excess of $500,000), and all other Collateral of which the Collateral Agent is
required to have or of which it reasonably requests to have physical possession
in order to perfect and protect the Collateral Agent’s security interest
therein, duly pledged, endorsed, or assigned to the Collateral Agent as provided
herein; (iii)  delivering to the Collateral Agent a duly executed amendment to
this Agreement, in the form of Exhibit B (each, an “Amendment”), pursuant to
which Grantor will pledge any additional Collateral that constitutes Commercial
Tort Claims; (iv) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, delivering to the Collateral Agent (A) warehouse receipts covering any
portion of the Collateral located in warehouses and for which warehouse receipts
are issued, (B)  warehouse receipts covering any portion of the Collateral
located in warehouses and for which warehouse receipts are issued and (C) if
requested by the Collateral Agent, certificates of title reflecting the
Collateral Agent’s Liens covering any portion of the Collateral for which
certificates of title have been issued; (v) when an Event of Default exists,
transferring Inventory constituting Collateral to warehouses or other locations
designated by the Collateral Agent; (vi) upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, delivering to the Collateral Agent all
letters of credit constituting Collateral on which Grantor is named beneficiary;
and (vii) taking such other steps as are reasonably deemed necessary or
desirable by the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority
Holders) to maintain, protect and enforce the Collateral Agent’s Liens. To the
extent permitted by any Requirement of Law, the Collateral Agent may file,
without Grantor’s signature, one or more financing statements disclosing the
Collateral Agent’s Liens. Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to
attach each Amendment to this Agreement and agrees that all additional
collateral set forth in such Amendments shall be considered to be part of the
Collateral.
(b)    If at any time any Collateral with a Fair Market Value in excess of
$1,000,000 is located at any operating facility of Grantor that is not owned by
Grantor, Grantor shall, upon request, use commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain written landlord lien waivers or subordinations, in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and counsel to the Purchasers, of all
present and future Liens to which the owner or lessor of such premises may be
entitled to assert against such Collateral.
(c)    From time to time, Grantor shall, upon the Collateral Agent’s request,
execute and deliver confirmatory written instruments pledging the Collateral to
the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but the failure to
do so shall not affect or limit any security interest or any other rights of the
Secured Parties in and to the Collateral.
Section 4.3    Electronic Chattel Paper.    If Grantor at any time holds or
acquires an interest in any Collateral constituting Electronic Chattel Paper or
any “transferable record”, as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of
the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant
jurisdiction, Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and
shall take such action as is necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent Control
under Section 9-105 of the UCC of such Electronic Chattel Paper or control (to
the extent the meaning of “control” has not been clearly established under such
provisions, “control” in this Section 4.3 shall have such meaning as the
Collateral Agent shall reasonably specify in writing after consultation with
Grantor) under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such
transferable record. The Collateral Agent agrees with Grantor that the
Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the
Collateral Agent’s loss of Control or control, as applicable, which may be
established to the satisfaction of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the delivery
to it by Grantor of an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, for
Grantor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable
record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section
201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or
Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in Control to
allow without loss of Control or control, as applicable, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account
any action by Grantor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or
transferable record.
Section 4.4    Maintenance of Property. Except as otherwise permitted hereunder
or pursuant to the other Indenture Documents, Grantor shall maintain all of its
property necessary or useful in the conduct of its business, in reasonable
operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear and obsolescence
excepted.
Section 4.5    Investment Property.
(a)    The Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall hold
certificated Investment Property Collateral in the name of Grantor, endorsed or
assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent, but following the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default shall have the
right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to hold such Investment Property
Collateral in its own name as pledgee, or in the name of its nominee (as pledgee
or as sub-agent). Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of
any material notices or other material communications received by it with
respect to any Investment Property Collateral registered in the name of Grantor.
Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent shall at all times have the right to exchange the certificates
representing Investment Property Collateral for certificates of smaller or
larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.
(b)    Unless an Event of Default exists, (i)  Grantor shall be entitled to
exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights (including, the right to
give consents, waivers, and notifications in respect of any securities)
pertaining to its Investment Property Collateral or any part thereof; provided,
however, that without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and the
Trustee obtained in accordance with the Indenture, no vote shall be cast or
consent, waiver, or ratification given or action taken that would amend, modify,
or waive any term, provision, or condition of the certificate of incorporation,
bylaws, certificate of formation, or other charter document or other agreement
relating to, evidencing or providing for the issuance of or securing any such
Investment Property Collateral, in any manner that would materially impair such
Investment Property Collateral, the transferability thereof, or the Collateral
Agent’s Liens therein, and (ii) Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain
any and all dividends, interest paid and other cash distributions in respect of
any of such Investment Property Collateral (unless otherwise required by the
Indenture).
(c)    During the existence of an Event of Default, after delivery of notice to
Grantor, (i) the Collateral Agent may exercise all voting and corporate rights
at any meeting of any corporation, partnership, or other business entity issuing
any of the Investment Property Collateral and the proceeds thereof (in cash or
otherwise) held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and any and all rights of
conversion, exchange, subscription, or any other rights, privileges, or options
pertaining to any of the Investment Property Collateral as if it were the
absolute owner thereof, including, the right to exchange at its discretion any
and all of the Investment Property Collateral upon the merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization, or other readjustment of any Investment
Property Issuer or upon the exercise by any such issuer or the Collateral Agent
of any right, privilege, or option pertaining to any of the Investment Property
Collateral, and in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of
the Investment Property Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer
agent, registrar, or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as
it may determine, all without liability except to account for property actually
received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of
the aforesaid rights, privileges, or options, and the Collateral Agent shall not
be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing, (ii) all rights of
Grantor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that it would
otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 4.5(b) and to receive the
dividends, interest, and other distributions that it would otherwise be
authorized to receive and retain thereunder shall be suspended until such Event
of Default shall no longer exist or as the Collateral Agent shall otherwise
specify, and all such rights shall, until such Event of Default shall no longer
exist or as the Collateral Agent shall otherwise specify, thereupon become
vested in the Collateral Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right, but no
duty, to exercise such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and
hold as Investment Property Collateral such dividends, interest, and other
distributions, (iii) all dividends, interest, and other distributions which are
received by Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 4.5(c) shall be
received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated
from other funds of Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral
Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary
endorsement), and (iv)  Grantor shall execute and deliver (or cause to be
executed and delivered) to the Collateral Agent all such proxies and other
instruments as are necessary or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request
for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and
other rights that it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 4.5(c) and
to receive the dividends, interest, and other distributions that it is entitled
to receive and retain pursuant to this Section 4.5(c). The foregoing shall not
in any way limit the Collateral Agent’s power and authority granted pursuant to
Section 7.4. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and Grantor
shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent certificates to that effect, the
Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to Grantor (without interest) all
dividends or other distributions that Grantor would otherwise be permitted to
retain pursuant to the terms of Section 4.5(b) and that remain in such account.
(d)    Grantor will cause or permit the Collateral Agent from time to time to
cause the appropriate Investment Property Issuers (and, if held with a
securities intermediary, such securities intermediary) of uncertificated
securities or other types of Investment Property Collateral not represented by
certificates to mark their books and records with the numbers and face amounts
of all such uncertificated securities or other types of Investment Property
Collateral not represented by certificates and all rollovers and replacements
therefor to reflect the Lien of the Collateral Agent granted pursuant to this
Agreement. Grantor will take any actions reasonably necessary to cause (i) the
Investment Property Issuers of uncertificated securities which are Investment
Property Collateral, and (ii) any securities intermediary which is the holder of
any Investment Property Collateral, to cause the Collateral Agent to have and
retain Control over such Investment Property Collateral.
Section 4.6    Proprietary Rights.
(a)    Grantor, either directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or
designee, shall inform the Collateral Agent on an annual basis of each
application for the registration of any material Proprietary Right constituting
Collateral owned or licensed by Grantor or any of its Affiliates with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office or any
similar office or agency in any U.S. jurisdiction filed during the preceding
year.
Section 4.7    Inventory. Grantor shall keep its Inventory constituting
Collateral (other than returned or obsolete Inventory) in good and marketable
condition, except for damaged or defective goods arising in the ordinary course
of Grantor’s business.
Section 4.8    Commercial Tort Claims. If Grantor shall at any time, acquire a
Commercial Tort Claim constituting Collateral, the recovery from which could
reasonably be expected to exceed $1,000,000, Grantor shall promptly notify the
Collateral Agent thereof in a writing, therein providing a reasonable
description and summary thereof, and upon delivery thereof to the Collateral
Agent, together with an Amendment as contemplated by Section 4.2(a)(iii),
Grantor shall be deemed thereby to grant to the Collateral Agent a security
interest in such Commercial Tort Claim.
Section 4.9    No Interference. Grantor agrees that it will not interfere with
any right, power and remedy of the Collateral Agent provided for in this
Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise, or with the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Collateral
Agent of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies.
Section 4.10    Insurance.
(a)    Grantor shall maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers
insurance that is reasonably consistent with prudent industry practice.
(b)    For each of the insurance policies issued as required by this
Section 4.10 with respect to Collateral, Grantor shall cause the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be named as an additional
insured with respect to insurance policies for general liability for bodily
injury and a lender loss payee for insurance policies for property damage.
Certificates of insurance of such policies shall be delivered to the Collateral
Agent and shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders.
(c)    Grantor shall promptly provide written notice to the Collateral Agent of
any loss, damage, or destruction to the Collateral in excess of (A) $2,500,000
if covered by insurance or (B) $1,000,000 if not covered by insurance. During
the existence of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized
to directly collect all insurance proceeds in respect of Collateral and to apply
such proceeds in accordance with Section 5.3.
(d)    Unless Grantor provides the Collateral Agent with evidence of the
insurance coverage on the Collateral required by this Section 4.10, the
Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), upon sixty (60) days’
prior notice, purchase insurance at Grantor’s expense to protect the Collateral
Agent’s Lien on such Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect the
interests of Grantor. The coverage that the Collateral Agent purchases may (but
shall not be required to) pay any claim that Grantor makes or any claim that is
made against Grantor in connection with said Collateral. Grantor may later
cancel any insurance purchased by the Collateral Agent but only after providing
the Collateral Agent and the Holders with evidence that Grantor has obtained
insurance as required by this Agreement. If the Collateral Agent purchases such
insurance, Grantor will be responsible for the costs of that insurance,
including interest and any other reasonable charges the Collateral Agent may
impose in connection with the placement of insurance, until the effective date
of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance
shall be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than
the cost of insurance that Grantor may be able to obtain on their own.
Section 4.11    Condemnation. Grantor shall, promptly upon learning of the
institution of any proceeding for the condemnation or other taking of any of its
property with a Fair Market Value in excess of $1,000,000, notify the Collateral
Agent of the pendency of such proceeding.
Section 4.12    Further Assurances.
Grantor shall, at its own cost and expense, execute and deliver, or cause to be
executed and delivered, to the Collateral Agent and/or the Trustee such
documents and agreements, and shall take or cause to be taken such actions, as
are necessary or that the Collateral Agent and/or the Trustee may, from time to
time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and the other Indenture Documents. In addition, from time to time, Grantor will,
at its cost and expense, promptly secure the Obligations by pledging or
creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected Liens with respect to
such of its assets and properties (other than Excluded Assets) as the Collateral
Agent or the Trustee may designate. Upon the acquisition by Grantor of any
After-Acquired Property (but subject to the limitations, if applicable, set
forth herein or in the Indenture), Grantor shall execute and deliver such
security instruments, mortgages (or the like), financing statements (or
amendments to existing Security Documents and financing statements) and
Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel as shall be reasonably necessary
to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected Lien in such After-Acquired Property
and to have such After-Acquired Property added to the Collateral and shall
promptly deliver such Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel as are
customary in secured financing transactions in the relevant jurisdictions or as
are reasonably requested by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (subject to
customary assumptions, exceptions and qualifications), and thereupon all
provisions of this Agreement relating to the Collateral, shall be deemed to
relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same
force and effect. If any property or asset of the Issuer or any other Grantor
originally deemed to be an Excluded Asset at any point ceases to be an Excluded
Asset pursuant to such defined term, all or the applicable portion of such
property or asset shall be deemed to be After-Acquired Property and shall be
added to Collateral in accordance with the Indenture and this Agreement. Subject
to Section 4.13 of the Indenture, such Liens will be created under security
agreements, mortgages (or the like) and other instruments and documents in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, and Grantor shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee all such
instruments and documents (including Opinions of Counsel, Officers’
Certificates, title insurance policies and lien searches) as are necessary or
that the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with
this Section 4.12(a). Grantor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent each year at
the time of delivery of the annual report required to be delivered by the Issuer
pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of the Indenture, an Officer’s Certificate setting
forth the information required pursuant to the Perfection Certificate or
confirming that there has been no change in such information since the Effective
Date or the date of the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to Section
4.1(e) or this Section 4.12(a).
Section 4.13    Post-Closing Obligations. Grantor shall deliver the documents
and take the actions specified on Schedule 4.13 as promptly as practicable
following the date of this Agreement, but in any event no later than the times
prescribed therein.
ARTICLE V

debtor is in default under a security agreement;
(iii)    the Collateral Agent may, at any time, take possession of the
Collateral and keep it on any of Grantor’s premises, at no cost to the
Collateral Agent, the Trustee or any other Secured Party, or remove any part of

shall, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand, at Grantor’s cost, assemble the
Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place reasonably
convenient to the Collateral Agent;

Collateral by an announcement at the time and place of sale or of such postponed
or adjourned sale without giving a new notice of sale; provided that, in
connection with any such sale of Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall use its
reasonable commercial efforts to maintain the confidentiality of any proprietary
information of Grantor (consistent with the confidentiality obligations of the

(v)    the Collateral Agent may give notice of sole control or any other
instruction under any Account Control Agreement and take any action provided
therein with respect to the applicable Collateral;
(vi)    the Collateral Agent may, concurrently with or following written notice
to Grantor, transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the

certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, exercise the
voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, collect and
receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made
thereon and otherwise act with respect to the Investment Property Collateral as
though the Collateral Agent was the outright owner thereof.
(b)    Without in any way requiring notice to be given in the following manner,
Grantor agrees that any notice by the Collateral Agent of a sale, disposition,
or other intended action hereunder or in connection herewith, whether required
by the UCC or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to Grantor if such
notice is mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid, or is delivered personally against receipt, at least five (5)
Business Days prior to such action to Grantor’s address specified in or pursuant
to Section 8.1.
(c)    If any Collateral is sold on terms other than payment in full at the time
of sale, no credit shall be given against the Obligations until the Collateral
Agent receives payment, and if the buyer defaults in payment, the Collateral
Agent may resell the Collateral without further notice to Grantor.
(d)    In the event the Collateral Agent seeks to take possession of all or any
portion of the Collateral by judicial process, Grantor irrevocably waives: (i)
the posting of any bond, surety, or security with respect thereto that might
otherwise be required; (ii) any demand for possession prior to the commencement
of any suit or action to recover the Collateral; and (iii) any requirement that
the Collateral Agent retain possession and not dispose of any Collateral until
after trial or final judgment.
(e)    If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Grantor hereby waives
all rights to a hearing prior to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the
Collateral Agent’s rights to repossess the Collateral without judicial process
or to replevy, attach, or levy upon the Collateral.
(f)    Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent has no
obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral or marshal any Collateral for
the benefit of any Person.
(g)    Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the compliance by the Collateral
Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, with any applicable state or federal
law requirements may be required in connection with a disposition of the
Collateral and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the
commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
(h)    The Collateral Agent shall have the right upon any public sale or sales
and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any private sale or sales, to purchase
for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, the whole
or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption,
which equity redemption Grantor hereby expressly releases.
(i)    Until the Collateral Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, transfer or
other disposition of Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, but
no duty or obligation, to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the
extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or the
value of the Collateral, or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the
Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may, if it so elects, but shall have no
obligation to, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession
of Collateral and to enforce any of the Collateral Agent’s remedies (for the
benefit of the Collateral Agent and Secured Parties), with respect to such
appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.
(j)    Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a
public sale of any or all of the Collateral consisting of securities to be sold
by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the laws of any jurisdiction
outside the United States or in applicable federal or state securities laws but
may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted
group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire
such Collateral or other property to be sold for their own account for
investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Grantor
acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and
other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale
and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale
shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed to have been made in a
commercially reasonable manner. Unless required by a Requirement of Law, the
Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the
Collateral or other property to be sold for the period of time necessary to
permit the issuer of any relevant securities to register such securities under
the laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States or under any applicable
federal or state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.
Grantor further agrees to do or cause to be done, at its own cost and expense,
to the extent that Grantor may do so under Requirements of Law, all such other
acts and things as may be necessary to make such sales or resales of any portion
or all of the Collateral or other property to be sold valid and binding and in
compliance with any and all Requirements of Law at Grantor’s expense.
(k)    Any remedy or enforcement action to be taken hereunder by the Collateral
Agent with respect to the Collateral shall be at the written direction of the
Trustee (acting pursuant to the direction of the Majority Holders pursuant to
the Indenture).
Section 5.2    Grant of Intellectual Property License. Effective only upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of
enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this
Article V at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to
exercise such rights and remedies, Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent
a non-exclusive license or other right to use, without charge, Grantor’s labels,
patents, copyrights, name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, and
advertising matter, or any similar property, to the extent constituting
Collateral in completing production of, advertising or selling any Collateral,
and, subject to the rights of any licensor or franchisor under such agreements
and to the extent not in violation of such agreements, Grantor’s rights under
all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Collateral Agent’s
benefit for such purpose.
Section 5.3    Application of Proceeds. The Collateral Agent shall apply the
proceeds of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any
Collateral, as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all actual, reasonable and documented costs and
expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such hereunder or
under the Indenture or any other Indenture Document) and the Trustee in
connection with such collection, sale, foreclosure or realization or reasonable
costs, expenses, claims or liabilities of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee
otherwise relating to or arising in connection with this Agreement, the
Indenture or any other Indenture Document or any of the Obligations, including
all court costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and legal
counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Collateral Agent or the
Trustee hereunder or under the Indenture or any other Indenture Document on
behalf of Grantor, any other reasonable costs or expenses incurred by the
Collateral Agent or the Trustee in connection with the exercise of any remedy
hereunder or under the Indenture or any other Indenture Document, and any
indemnification of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee required by the terms
hereunder, under the Indenture or any other Indenture Document;
SECOND, to the Trustee for distribution in accordance with the priorities set
forth in Section 6.10 of the Indenture.
Except as otherwise provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall have absolute
discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or
balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the
Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or
under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the
officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or
purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not
be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid
over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the
misapplication thereof.
ARTICLE VI    
CONCERNING THE COLLATERAL AGENT
Section 6.1    Reliance by Collateral Agent; Indemnity Against Liabilities, etc.
(a)    Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or any
other Indenture Document, the Collateral Agent shall deem it necessary or
desirable that a matter be proved or established with respect to Grantor or any
other Person in connection with the taking, suffering or omitting of any action
hereunder by the Collateral Agent, such matter may be conclusively deemed to be
proved or established by a certificate executed by an Officer of such Person,
including an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, and the Collateral
Agent shall have no liability with respect to any action taken, suffered or
omitted in reliance thereon. The Collateral Agent may at any time solicit
written confirmatory instructions, including a direction of the Trustee or
Grantor or an order of a court of competent jurisdiction as to any action that
it may be requested or required to take or that it may propose to take in the
performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other
Indenture Document and shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to act
hereunder or under any other Indenture Document until it shall have received
such requisite instruction.
(b)    The Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon any note,
writing, affidavit, electronic communication, fax, resolution, statement,
certificate, instrument, opinion, report, notice (including any notice of an
Event of Default or of the cure or waiver thereof), request, consent, order or
other paper or document or oral conversation (including, telephone
conversations) that it in good faith believes to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, presented or made by the proper party. The Collateral Agent
may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
the opinions expressed therein, upon any notice, certificate or opinion
furnished to the Collateral Agent in connection with this Agreement or any other
Indenture Document and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including
counsel to Grantor, independent accountants and other agents consulted by the
Collateral Agent).
Section 6.2    Exercise of Remedies. The remedies of the Collateral Agent
hereunder and under the other Security Documents shall include the disposition
of the Collateral by foreclosure or other sale and the exercising of all
remedies of a secured lender under the UCC, bankruptcy laws or similar laws of
any applicable jurisdiction.
Section 6.3    Authorized Investments. Any and all funds held by the Collateral
Agent in its capacity as Collateral Agent, whether pursuant to any provision
hereof or of any other Security Document or otherwise, shall, to the extent
reasonably practicable following receipt by the Collateral Agent from Grantor of
specific written instructions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent delivered to the Collateral Agent at least three (3)
Business Days prior to the proposed investment, be invested by the Collateral
Agent within a reasonable time in the Cash Equivalents identified in such
written instructions. Any interest earned on such funds shall be disbursed (i)
during an Event of Default, in accordance with Section 5.3 and (ii) at all other
times, as Grantor shall direct. To the extent that the interest rate payable
with respect to any such account varies over time, the Collateral Agent may use
an average interest rate in making the interest allocations among the respective
Secured Parties. In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction,
the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for any investment losses in
respect of any funds invested in accordance with this Section 6.3. The
Collateral Agent shall have no duty or obligation regarding the reinvestment of
any such funds in the absence of updated written instructions from Grantor in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
Section 6.4    Bankruptcy Proceedings. The following provisions shall apply
during any Bankruptcy Proceeding of Grantor:
(a)    The Collateral Agent shall represent all Secured Parties in connection
with all matters directly relating to the Collateral, including, any use, sale
or lease of Collateral, use of cash collateral, request for relief from the
automatic stay and request for adequate protection.
(b)    Each Secured Party shall be free to act independently on any issue not
affecting the Collateral. Each Secured Party shall give prior notice to the
Collateral Agent of any such action that could materially affect the rights or
interests of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties to the extent
that such notice is reasonably practicable. If such prior notice is not given,
such Secured Party shall give prompt notice following any action taken
hereunder.
(c)    Any proceeds of the Collateral received by any Secured Party as a result
of, or during, any Bankruptcy Proceeding will be delivered promptly to the
Collateral Agent for distribution in accordance with Section 5.3.
ARTICLE VII    
COLLATERAL AGENT AND TRUSTEE RIGHTS, DUTIES AND
LIABILITIES; ATTORNEY IN FACT; PROXY
Section 7.1    The Collateral Agent’s and the Trustee’s Rights, Duties, and
Liabilities.
(a)    Grantor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from or relating
to the use, maintenance, storage, sale, collection, foreclosure, realization on,
conveyance or other disposition of or involving the Collateral. The Obligations
shall not be affected by any failure of Grantor, the Collateral Agent or the
Trustee to take any steps to perfect the Collateral Agent’s Liens or to collect
or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral
release Grantor from any of the Obligations. Following the occurrence and during
the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not
be required to), and at the direction of the Trustee (acting in accordance with
the instructions of the Majority Holders pursuant to the Indenture) shall,
subject to the terms of the Indenture, without notice to or consent from Grantor
sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time for payment of, modify or amend
the terms of, compromise or settle for cash, credit or otherwise upon any terms,
grant other indulgences, extensions, renewals, compositions or releases, and
take or omit to take any other action with respect to the Collateral, any
security therefor, any agreement relating thereto, any insurance applicable
thereto, or any Person liable directly or indirectly in connection with any of
the foregoing, without discharging or otherwise affecting the liability of
Grantor for the Obligations or under the Indenture, any other Indenture Document
or any other agreement now or hereafter existing between any Secured Party and
Grantor.
(b)    It is expressly agreed by Grantor that, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, Grantor shall remain liable under each of its contracts and
each of its licenses to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations
to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Neither the Collateral Agent nor
the Trustee shall have any obligation or liability under any contract or license
by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien
thereon or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or the Trustee of any payment
relating to any contract or license pursuant hereto that is applied as required
herein. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee shall be required or
obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of Grantor
under or pursuant to any contract or license, or to make any payment, or to make
any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or
the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any contract or license,
or to present or file any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce
any performance or the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it
or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
Section 7.2    Right to Cure. The Collateral Agent may (but shall not be
required to) in its reasonable discretion pay any reasonable amount or do any
reasonable act required of Grantor hereunder or under any other Indenture
Document in order to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce the Obligations, the
Collateral or the Collateral Agent’s Liens therein, and which Grantor fails to
timely pay or do, including payment of any judgment against Grantor, insurance
premium, any warehouse charge, any finishing or processing charge, any
landlord’s or bailee’s claim, and any other Lien upon or with respect to the
Collateral. All payments that the Collateral Agent makes under this Section 7.2
and all actual, reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket costs and expenses that
the Collateral Agent pays or incurs in connection with any action taken by it
hereunder shall be promptly reimbursed by Grantor. Any payment made or other
action taken by the Collateral Agent under this Section 7.2 shall be without
prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to proceed
thereafter as herein provided.
Section 7.3    Confidentiality.
(a)    The Collateral Agent, accompanied by the Trustee if the Trustee so
elects, may upon reasonable advance notice and at reasonable times during
regular business hours, and at any time when an Event of Default exists, have
access to, examine, audit, make extracts from or copies of, and inspect any or
all of Grantor’s records, files and books of account and the Collateral, and
discuss Grantor’s affairs with Grantor’s officers and senior management. In
furtherance of the foregoing, Grantor will deliver to the Collateral Agent any
instrument reasonably necessary for the Collateral Agent to obtain records from
any service bureau maintaining records for Grantor. The Collateral Agent may,
and at the direction of the Trustee shall, at any time when an Event of Default
exists, and at Grantor’s expense, make copies of all of Grantor’s books and
records, or require Grantor to deliver such copies to the Collateral Agent. Upon
reasonable request to senior management of Grantor, the Collateral Agent may,
without expense to the Collateral Agent, use such of Grantor’s personnel,
supplies and premises as may be reasonably necessary for maintaining or
enforcing the Collateral Agent’s Liens. The Collateral Agent shall have the
right (but not the obligation), upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of a
nominee of the Collateral Agent, to verify the validity, amount or any other
matter relating to the Collateral by mail, telephone or otherwise.
(b)    The Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity and as Collateral Agent,
and the Trustee, in its individual capacity and as Trustee, agree and
acknowledge that all information provided to the Collateral Agent or the Trustee
by Grantor may be considered to be proprietary and confidential information
(“Confidential Information”). Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent
agrees to take all reasonable precautions necessary to keep such information
confidential, which precautions shall be no less stringent than those that the
Collateral Agent and the Trustee, as applicable, employs to protect its own
confidential information. Each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall not
disclose to any third party other than as set forth herein, and shall not use
for any purpose other than the exercise of the Collateral Agent’s and the
Trustee’s rights and the performance of its respective obligations under this
Agreement, any such information without the prior written consent of Grantor, as
applicable. Each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall limit access to
such information received hereunder to (a) its directors, officers, managers and
employees and (b) its legal advisors, to each of whom disclosure of such
information is necessary for the purposes described above; provided, however,
that in each case such party has expressly agreed to maintain such information
in confidence under terms and conditions substantially identical to the terms of
this Section 7.3(b).
(c)    Each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee agree that, unless otherwise
provided hereunder or under the Indenture, Grantor does not have any
responsibility whatsoever for any reliance on Confidential Information by the
Collateral Agent or the Trustee or by any Person to whom such information is
disclosed in connection with this Agreement, whether related to the purposes
described above or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
each of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee agrees that Grantor makes no
representation or warranty whatsoever to it with respect to Confidential
Information or its suitability for such purposes. Each of the Collateral Agent
and the Trustee further agrees that it shall not acquire any rights against
Grantor or any employee, officer, director, manager, representative or agent of
Grantor (collectively, “Confidential Parties”) as a result of the disclosure of
Confidential Information to the Trustee and that no Confidential Party has any
duty, responsibility, liability or obligation to any Person as a result of any
such disclosure.
(d)    In the event the Collateral Agent or the Trustee is required to disclose
any Confidential Information received hereunder in order to comply with any
laws, regulations or court orders, it may disclose Confidential Information only
to the extent necessary for such compliance; provided, however, that it shall
give Grantor reasonable advance written notice of any such court proceeding in
which such disclosure may be required pursuant to a court order so as to afford
Grantor full and fair opportunity to oppose the issuance of such order and to
appeal therefrom and shall cooperate reasonably with Grantor, as applicable, in
opposing such order and in securing confidential treatment of any Confidential
Information to be disclosed and/or obtaining a protective order narrowing the
scope of such disclosure.
Section 7.4    Power of Attorney. Grantor, as to itself, hereby appoints the
Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent’s designee as Grantor’s attorney, with
power upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: (a)
to endorse Grantor’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, or
other forms of payment or security relating to any Collateral that come into the
Collateral Agent’s or any other Secured Parties’ possession; (b) to sign
Grantor’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, warehouse receipt, or other
document of title relating to any Collateral, on drafts against customers, on
assignments of Accounts, on notices of assignment, financing statements, and
other public records and to file any such financing statements by electronic
means with or without a signature as authorized or required by applicable law or
filing procedure; (c) to send requests for verification of Accounts to customers
or Account Debtors, in each case relating to any Collateral; (d) to clear
Inventory relating to any Collateral through customs in Grantor’s name, the
Collateral Agent’s name, or the name of the Collateral Agent’s designee, and to
sign and deliver to customs officials powers of attorney in Grantor’s name for
such purpose; and (e) to do all things the Collateral Agent reasonably
determines are necessary to carry out the security interest provisions of the
Indenture and the provisions of this Agreement. Grantor ratifies and approves
all acts of such attorney. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any
other Indenture Document to the contrary, none of the Trustee, the Collateral
Agent, or their attorneys, employees or Affiliates will be liable for any acts
or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than
any such liability arising from any such Person’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 7.5    Proxy. CONSISTENT WITH AND SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS IN SECTION
4.5(b), GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS THE COLLATERAL AGENT
AS ITS PROXY AND ATTORNEY‑IN‑FACT (AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 7.4) WITH RESPECT TO

PROPERTY, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO. IN ADDITION TO THE RIGHT TO
VOTE ANY SUCH INVESTMENT PROPERTY, THE APPOINTMENT OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT AS

POWERS, PRIVILEGES AND REMEDIES TO WHICH A HOLDER OF SUCH INVESTMENT PROPERTY
WOULD BE ENTITLED (INCLUDING GIVING OR WITHHOLDING WRITTEN CONSENTS OF
SHAREHOLDERS, CALLING SPECIAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS AND VOTING AT SUCH
MEETINGS). SUBJECT TO SECTION 4.5(b), SUCH PROXY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE,
AUTOMATICALLY AND WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF ANY ACTION (INCLUDING ANY TRANSFER OF
ANY SUCH INVESTMENT PROPERTY ON THE RECORD BOOKS OF THE ISSUER THEREOF) BY ANY
PERSON (INCLUDING THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY ISSUER OR ANY OFFICER OR AGENT
THEREOF), UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.
Section 7.6    Nature of Appointment; Limitation of Duty. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE
COLLATERAL AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN THIS ARTICLE VII IS COUPLED
WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS AGREEMENT

CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER INDENTURE DOCUMENT, NONE OF THE
COLLATERAL AGENT, ANY OTHER SECURED PARTY OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES,
OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY DUTY TO
EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OR POWER GRANTED HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE OR TO PRESERVE THE
SAME AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO DO SO OR FOR ANY DELAY IN DOING
SO, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH DAMAGES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THEIR OWN GROSS
NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT
JURISDICTION; PROVIDED THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL THEY BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE,
EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
Section 7.7    Additional Matters Relating to the Collateral Agent.
(a)    U.S. Bank National Association shall initially act as Collateral Agent
for the Secured Parties and shall be authorized to appoint co-collateral agents

Documents, (ii) bind the Secured Parties on the terms as set forth in the
Indenture Documents and (iii) perform and observe its obligations under the
Indenture Documents.
(b)    The rights, duties, liabilities and immunities of the Collateral Agent
and its appointment, resignation and replacement hereunder and under the
Indenture and the other Indenture Documents shall be governed by this Agreement,
Article 11 of the Indenture and the relevant provisions contained in the other
Indenture Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the rights, privileges,
protections and benefits given to the Collateral Agent under the Indenture are
extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent in connection
with the execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other
Indenture Documents and any action taken or omitted to be taken by the
Collateral Agent in connection with its appointment and performance under this
Agreement and the other Indenture Documents to which it is a party.
(c)    The Collateral Agent undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its
agreements and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, the
Indenture and the other Indenture Documents, and no implied agreements,
covenants or obligations with respect to Grantor or any Affiliate of Grantor,
any Secured Party or any other party shall be read into this Agreement against
the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent in its capacity as such is not a
fiduciary of and shall not owe or be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to Grantor
or any Related Person of Grantor.
(d)    None of the Collateral Agent, the Trustee or any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Related Persons
shall be responsible or liable in any manner (i) to Grantor or any of its
Related Persons for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in
connection with this Agreement in compliance herewith, (i) to any Secured Party
or any other Person for any recitals, statements, representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or in any other Indenture
Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to
or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection
with, this Agreement or any other Indenture Document, (iii) to any Secured Party

or (v) to any Secured Party or other Person for any failure of Grantor to
perform its obligations hereunder or to perform any of the Obligations.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i)
in no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be responsible for or have

Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to any Person to ascertain or to
inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained

in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty or obligation. The Collateral
Agent may rely conclusively on any Opinions of Counsel rendered to the
Collateral Agent under the Indenture in determining any necessary or desirable
actions under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
the Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under the UCC or
otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent
deals with similar property for its own account and the Collateral 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 comparable secured parties accord comparable
collateral. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee 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 Grantor or any other Person or to take any
other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.
(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the

documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including the reasonable
out-of-pocket fees and expenses of their respective counsel, any special
consultants reasonably engaged (and, unless an Event of Default exists, engaged
with the prior written consent of Grantor) and any local counsel who might
reasonably be retained by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, as
the case may be, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby) that
the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, as the case may be, may incur
in connection with (i) any Event of Default, including the sale, lease, license
or other disposition of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the

Documents.

assurance or termination.

Indenture Documents, the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or any other
Indenture Document at the request, order or direction of any Secured Party
pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture or any other Indenture Document,
unless such Secured Party shall have offered to the Collateral Agent security or
indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against the costs, expenses and
liabilities that may be incurred by it in compliance with such request, order or
direction.
(j)    In no event shall the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be liable or
responsible for any funds or investments of funds held by Grantor or any
Affiliates thereof.

Collateral Agent appoints a Co-Collateral Agent or Co-Collateral Agents in
accordance with Section 7.7(a), such Co-Collateral Agent(s) shall enter into an
appointment agreement in a form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and such
Co-Collateral Agent, and upon acceptance of the appointment, such Co-Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to all of the rights, privileges, limitations on
liability and immunities afforded to and subject to all the duties of the
Collateral Agent hereunder, and shall be deemed to be a party to this Agreement

specific rights and duties vested in the Co-Collateral Agent pursuant to such
appointment agreement and related Security Documents. It is accepted and
acknowledged by the parties hereto that any Co-Collateral Agent appointed in
accordance with Section 7.7(a) and this Section 7.8 shall be entitled to the
payment of its fees and expenses as agreed to by Grantor, and without limitation
of any of the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be an

facsimile or on the date five (5) Business Days after dispatch by certified or
registered mail if mailed, in each case delivered, sent or mailed (properly
addressed) to such party as provided in this Section 8.1 or in accordance with
the latest unrevoked direction from such party given in accordance with this
Section 8.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notices to the Collateral Agent
shall only be effective upon actual receipt.
Section 8.2    Waiver of Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein,
Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or notice (to the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this
Agreement or any Collateral.
Section 8.3    Limitation on Collateral Agent’s and Other Secured Parties’ Duty
with Respect to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to
clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Collateral Agent and
each other Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the
Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Collateral Agent
nor any other Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in
its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or
nominee of the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party, or any income
thereon (other than to account for proceeds therefrom) or as to the preservation
of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the
extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise
remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, and to the extent permitted by
applicable law, Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it would be commercially
reasonable for the Collateral Agent (a) to fail to incur expenses deemed
significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or
otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or
other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party
consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not
required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents
for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of,
(c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other
Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims
against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors
and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of
collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise
dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation,
whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other
Persons, whether or not in the same business as Grantor, for expressions of
interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (g) to hire one or
more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral,
whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of
Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of
the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of
doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets
in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties,
such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (k) to purchase insurance or
credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss,
collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a
guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (l) to
the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of
other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist
the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.
Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.3 is to provide
non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent
would be commercially reasonable in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies
against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral
Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not
being indicated in this Section 8.3. Without limitation upon the foregoing,
nothing contained in this Section 8.3 shall be construed to grant any rights to
Grantor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been
granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this
Section 8.3.
Section 8.4    Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Grantor and the
Collateral Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other
claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Accounts
constituting Collateral, that certain of the Accounts constituting Collateral
may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and
probability of success in litigating a disputed Account may exceed the amount
that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to an Account. In
view of the foregoing, Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent may at any time
and from time to time if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
compromise with the obligor on any Account constituting Collateral, accept in
full payment of any Account constituting Collateral such amount as the
Collateral Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Account,
constituting Collateral and any such action by the Collateral Agent shall be
commercially reasonable so long as the Collateral Agent acts in good faith based
on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.
Section 8.5    Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Grantor acknowledges
and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.2(a),
4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.10, 4.12, 5.1(j), 7.3(a), 7.6, 8.16 and 8.17, will cause
irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and
that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy
at law in respect of such breaches, and Grantor therefore agrees, without
limiting the right of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties to seek
and obtain specific performance of other obligations of Grantor contained in
this Agreement, that the covenants of Grantor contained in the Sections referred
to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against Grantor.
Section 8.6    Cumulative Remedies; No Prior Recourse to Collateral. The
enumeration herein of the Collateral Agent’s and the Trustee’s rights and
remedies is not intended to be exclusive, and such rights and remedies are in
addition to and not by way of limitation of any other rights or remedies that
the Collateral Agent and the Trustee may have under the UCC, other applicable
law or the other Indenture Documents. The Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall
have the right, in their sole discretion, to determine which rights and remedies
are to be exercised and in which order. The exercise of one right or remedy
shall not preclude the exercise of any others, all of which shall be cumulative.
The Collateral Agent and the Trustee may, without limitation, proceed directly
against any Person liable therefor to collect the Obligations without any prior
recourse to the Collateral. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising,
on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, any right, remedy, power, or
privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
remedy, power, or privilege.
Section 8.7    Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights,
remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the
extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of
law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all
applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited
to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid,
unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part.
The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any
instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair
the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or
any instrument or agreement required hereunder.
Section 8.8    Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against
Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should Grantor become insolvent or
make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a
receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Grantor’s
assets. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any
part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or
must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations,
whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all
as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any
such payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned,
the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid
and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
Section 8.9    Binding Effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the respective representatives, successors, and
permitted assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, Grantor shall not
assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Collateral Agent and the Trustee (other than pursuant to
a transaction permitted under the Indenture), and any attempted assignment
without such consent shall be null and void. The rights and benefits of the
Collateral Agent and the Trustee hereunder shall, if such Persons so agree,
inure to any party acquiring any interest in the Obligations or any part thereof
in accordance with the terms hereof or of the Indenture.
Section 8.10    Survival of Representations. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by Grantor in the Indenture Documents and in
the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with
or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Indenture Document shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Parties and shall survive the
execution and delivery of the Indenture Documents and the purchase of the
Securities by the Purchasers, regardless of any investigation made by any
Secured Party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent,
the Trustee or any other Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default or incorrect representation or warranty and shall continue in full force
and effect as long as any Obligation (except for contingent obligations and cost
and reimbursement obligations to the extent no claim has been made) remains
unpaid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the
provisions of Section 8.16 and Section 8.17 shall survive and remain in full
force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, the repayment of the Securities or the termination of this Agreement or
any other Indenture Document.
Section 8.11    Captions. The captions contained in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only, are without substantive meaning and should not be
construed to modify, enlarge, or restrict any provision.
Section 8.12    Termination and Release. This Agreement and the security
interests granted hereby shall terminate in accordance with the Indenture. In
connection with the release of any Collateral which is expressly permitted by
the Indenture Documents, the Collateral Agent shall, at Grantor’s expense,
execute and deliver to Grantor such documents and take such other action as
Grantor may reasonably request to evidence and effectuate the release of any
security interests granted or purported to be granted hereunder.
Section 8.13    Entire Agreement. This Agreement taken together with the other
Indenture Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between
Grantor and the Collateral Agent relating to the Collateral and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings between Grantor and the Collateral Agent
relating to the Collateral.
Section 8.14    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
(a)    THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW
(OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW),

FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT
OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT
SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.15.
Section 8.16    Indemnity. GRANTOR AGREES TO DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD THE
COLLATERAL AGENT, THE TRUSTEE AND EACH OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS (EACH, AN

INDEMNIFIED PERSON (ALL THE FOREGOING, COLLECTIVELY, THE “INDEMNIFIED
