recording would be effective to perfect or record a Lien on such Collateral.  After the Closing Date, no Collateral owned by the Borrower will be in the possession or under the Control of any other Person having a claim thereto or security interest therein, other than a Permitted Lien.  (c)           The Transaction Liens on all Collateral owned by the Borrower (i) have been validly created, (ii) will attach to each item of such Collateral on the Closing Date (or, if the Borrower first obtains rights thereto on a later date, on such later date) and (iii) when so attached, will secure all the Secured Obligations.

Except for the filing of such UCC financing statements, no registration, recordation or filing with any governmental body, agency or official is required in connection with the execution or delivery of the Collateral Documents or is necessary for the validity or enforceability thereof or for the perfection or due recordation of the Transaction Liens or for the enforcement of the Transaction Liens.

Section 10.  Remedies upon Event of Default.(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing (for the avoidance of doubt, upon commencement by the Administrative Agent of any of the remedies set forth herein or in any of the other Credit Documents or upon notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or the Manager that it intends to promptly commence the exercise of any such remedies, such Event of Default shall be deemed to be continuing, and may not be cured or curable by any subsequent actions or events), the Administrative Agent may exercise (or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) under the Credit Documents.  (b)        Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) with respect to any Collateral.  In addition, the Administrative Agent may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, withdraw all cash held in the Collateral Accounts and apply such cash as provided in Section 11 and, if there shall be no such cash or if such cash shall be insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations (except for contingent indemnity obligations in respect of which no claim has been asserted in writing) in full, sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof at such place or places as the Administrative Agent deems best, and for cash, credit or any combination thereof or for future delivery, at public or private sale, without  12


demand of performance to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof, and the Administrative Agent or any one else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise) of the Borrower, any such demand, right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released.  The Borrower hereby agrees that in the case of any Collateral that is a Bank Loan, the Administrative Agent may effect any such disposition by selling such Bank Loan in a private sale in which the Administrative Agent is the purchaser followed by a sale by the Administrative Agent of participations in such Bank Loan to one or more third parties (who may be affiliates of a Secured Party), and that such manner of disposition shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable.  The Borrower shall remain liable to the Secured Parties for any deficiency following any such sale of Collateral.  In addition to the foregoing remedies, the Administrative Agent may take any action that is necessary in Administrative Agents sole good faith discretion to protect, preserve or enforce its rights hereunder or to reduce any risk of loss that it may suffer.  (c)        The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned.  Notice of any such sale or other disposition shall be given to the Borrower to the extent required by Section 13 and by applicable law.  If so requested by the Administrative Agent or by any buyer of the Collateral or any part thereof, the Borrower shall further ratify and confirm any action taken pursuant to the power of attorney granted herein by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent or to such buyer or buyers at the expense of the Borrower all instruments of assignment, conveyance or transfer, releases, instructions and entitlement orders as may be designated in any such request.  (d)        Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to this Section 10 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.  The Borrower hereby waives any claims against the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.  13


(e)        Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, pursuant hereto and the Management Agreement, terminate (or cause to be terminated) the Management Agreement and replace (or cause to be replaced) the Manager with an institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion (which may be Deutsche Bank AG or any of its Affiliates) legally qualified, permitted under applicable law and with the capacity to assume the responsibilities, duties and obligations of the Manager under the Credit Documents and the Management Agreement.  (f)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the rights of the Administrative Agent specifically identified herein are intended to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under the Credit Documents.  Section 11.  Application of Proceeds.If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall apply (i) any Cash held in the Collateral Accounts and (ii) the Proceeds of any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral, in the following order of priority:  first, to pay the expenses of such sale or other disposition, including reasonable compensation to agents of and counsel for the Administrative Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Credit Documents, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement or Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement;  second, to pay ratably all interest (including Post-Petition Interest) on the Secured Obligations (except for contingent indemnity obligations in respect of which no claim has been asserted in writing) payable under the Credit Agreement, until payment in full of all such interest and fees shall have been made;  third, to pay the unpaid principal of the Secured Obligations (except for contingent indemnity obligations in respect of which no claim has been asserted in writing) ratably, until payment in full of the principal of all Secured Obligations (except for contingent indemnity obligations in respect of which no claim has been asserted in writing) shall have been made (or so provided for);  fourth, to pay all other Secured Obligations (except for contingent indemnity obligations in respect of which no claim has been asserted in writing) ratably, until payment in full of all such other Secured  14

Section 16.  Termination of Transaction Liens; Release of Collateral.  (a)        The Transaction Liens shall terminate when the Administrative Agent has determined that all the Release Conditions have been satisfied.
