 SECTION 3. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and warrants to the
Secured Party, in addition to the representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, that:

	 	(a)	 Such Grantor shall notify the Secured Party promptly in writing if it knows or has reason to know that any
application or registration relating to any material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor has or may become abandoned, dedicated to the public, placed in the public domain or otherwise invalidated or unenforceable. Such Grantor shall further
notify the Secured Party promptly in writing of any adverse determination or decision in any proceeding and the institution of any proceeding challenging such Grantor before the PTO, the United States Copyright Office, or any similar agency of the
United States, any State, or other country or political subdivision thereof, any internet domain registry or other registry, or any court, regarding such Grantor’s ownership of or right to use, register, keep and/or maintain any material
Intellectual Property. Such Grantor shall be free to prosecute and maintain its material Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of business in a commercially reasonable manner, and, notwithstanding the foregoing, shall not be required to
report preliminary or initial determinations, unless and until made final (with no further right to appeal or proceed available or otherwise taken by Grantor), by the PTO, the United States Copyright Office, or any similar agency of the United
States, any State, or other country or political subdivision thereof, any internet domain registry or other registry, or any court, regarding such Grantor’s ownership of or right to use, register, keep and/or maintain any Intellectual Property;

	 	(b)	 Such Grantor shall (i) prosecute diligently any patent, trademark, or service mark applications pending as
of the date hereof or hereafter if material to the operations of the business of such Grantor, (ii) preserve and maintain all rights in the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks, to the extent material to the operations of the business of such
Grantor and (iii) ensure that the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks are and remain enforceable, to the extent material to the operations of the business of such Grantor. Any expenses incurred in connection with the Grantors’ obligations
under this Section 4(b) shall be borne by the Grantors. Except for any such items that a Grantor reasonably believes (using prudent industry customs and practices) are no longer necessary for the on-going
operations of its business, the Grantors shall not abandon any material right to file a patent, trademark or service mark application, or abandon any pending patent, trademark or service mark application or any other Copyright, Patent or Trademark
without the prior written consent of the Secured Party (at the direction of the Required Lenders), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; 


  

	 	(c)	 In the event that any material Intellectual Property owned by or exclusively licensed to such Grantor is
infringed, diluted, misappropriated, or otherwise violated by a third party, such Grantor shall notify the Secured Party promptly in writing after such Grantor learns thereof and shall promptly take all commercially reasonable actions to stop the
same and enforce its rights in such material Intellectual Property and to recover all damages therefor, including, but not limited to, the initiation of a suit for injunctive relief and damages where reasonable and cost effective to do so (provided
that such Grantor must initiate suit in all cases where the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) and shall take such other actions as are commercially reasonable, or as the Secured Party or the Required
Lenders shall deem appropriate in its or their good faith exercise of its or their commercially reasonable discretion under the circumstances to protect such Grantor’s rights in such material Intellectual Property; 



 

	 	(d)	 Such Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to use appropriate statutory notice of registration in
connection with its use of registered Trademarks, proper marking practices in connection with the use of Patents, appropriate notice of copyright in connection with the publication of copyrighted materials, and other legends or markings applicable
to other Intellectual Property; 


  

	 	(e)	 Such Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the level of the quality of products sold
and services rendered under any Trademarks owned by such Grantor at a level at least consistent with the quality of such products and services as of the date hereof, and such Grantor shall adequately control the quality of goods and services offered
by any licensees of its Trademarks; 


  

	 	(f)	 Such Grantor shall take all steps necessary to protect the secrecy of all trade secrets material to its
business 


  

	 	(g)	 To the knowledge of such Grantor, neither the conduct of such Grantor’s business nor its use of the
Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor is interfering with, infringing upon, misappropriating, or otherwise in conflict with the Intellectual Property rights of any third party; and 



  
 5 













	 	(h)	 In the event any Grantor, (i) either directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, files
an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the PTO, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency, (ii) obtains rights to any new patentable inventions, any registered Copyrights or any
Patents or Trademarks, or (iii) becomes entitled to the benefit of any registered Copyrights or any Patents or Trademarks or any improvement on any Patent, the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and such Grantor
shall give to the Secured Party written notice thereof by delivery of an updated Schedule III, IV, V and/or VI to the Security Agreement, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2(e) of the Security Agreement. The Grantors hereby authorize
the Secured Party to modify this Agreement by amending Schedules I, II, III and IV hereto, as applicable, to include any such registered Copyrights or any such Patents and Trademarks, and to execute and deliver a supplement hereto (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Secured Party and the Required Lenders) to evidence the Secured Party’s lien on any such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and the general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.



 SECTION 5. Loan and Security Agreement. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement are
granted in conjunction with the security interests granted by each Grantor to the Secured Party, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to the U.S. Security Agreement. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges and affirms that the rights and
remedies of the Secured Party with respect to the Collateral made and granted herein are more fully set forth in the Credit Agreement and the U.S. Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully
set forth herein. Any rights and remedies set forth herein are without prejudice to, and in addition to, those set forth in the Credit Agreement and the U.S. Security Agreement. 

The Secured Party shall act (or omit to act) at the direction of the Required Lenders under any provision of this Agreement requiring the
Secured Party to take action or to omit from taking action (other than ordinary administration) or to exercise discretion. 

SECTION 6. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be
filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any 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
such Grantor’s assets, and 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 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 7. Indemnification. Each Grantor assumes all responsibility and
liability arising from the use of the Intellectual Property and Grantors, jointly and severally, hereby indemnify and hold the Secured Party and the Lenders and each of the officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, controlling persons, advisors
and agents of the Secured Party and the Lenders harmless from and against any claim, suit, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of any Grantor’s operations of its business from the use of the
Intellectual Property, except to the extent any such claim, suit, loss, damage or expense results from the Secured Party’s or Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable determination. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Secured Party under any Patent License, Trademark License, or Copyright License for any sum owing
thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of such License, Grantors will, jointly and severally, indemnify and keep the Secured Party and its officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, controlling persons, advisors and agents harmless from and
against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever of the obligee thereunder, arising out of a breach of any Grantor of any obligation thereunder or arising
out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such obligee or its successors from any Grantor, except to the extent any such expense, loss or damage results from the Secured Party’s own gross
negligence or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable determination, and all such obligations of Grantors shall be and remain enforceable
against and only against Grantors and shall not be enforceable against the Secured Party or any Lender. 
 SECTION 8. Notices.
Whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desires to give and
serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as
provided for in the U.S. Security Agreement. 
 SECTION 9. Termination of this Agreement. Subject to Section 6 hereof, this
Agreement shall terminate upon the Payment in Full in cash of all Obligations.
