GUARANTY




Section 2.1 Guaranty. To induce the Lenders to make the Loans and provide other financial accommodations
contemplated by the Credit Agreement, and the L/C Issuers to Issue Letters of Credit, each
Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as
primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated
maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance
with any Loan Document, of all the Obligations of the Borrower whether existing on the date hereof
or hereinafter incurred or created (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This Guaranty by each
Guarantor hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment and not of collection.



Section 2.2 Limitation of Guaranty. Any term or provision of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount for which any Guarantor shall be liable hereunder
shall not exceed the maximum amount for which such Guarantor can be liable without rendering this
Guaranty or any other Loan Document, as it relates to such Guarantor, subject to avoidance under
applicable Requirements of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer (including
the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Section 548 of title
11 of the United States Code
or any applicable provisions of comparable Requirements of Law) (collectively, “Fraudulent
Transfer Laws”). Any analysis of the provisions of this Guaranty for purposes of Fraudulent
Transfer Laws shall take into account the right of contribution established in Section 2.3
and, for purposes of such analysis, give effect to any discharge of intercompany debt as a result
of any payment made under the Guaranty.

Section 2.3 Contribution. To the extent that any Guarantor shall be required hereunder to pay any portion of any
Guaranteed Obligation exceeding the greater of (a) the amount of the economic benefit actually
received by such Guarantor from the Loans and other Obligations and (b) the amount such Guarantor
would otherwise have paid if such Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations (excluding the amount thereof repaid by the Borrower) in the same proportion as such
Guarantor’s net worth on the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the aggregate net worth
of all the Guarantors on such date, then such Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other
Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worth of such other
Guarantors on such date.



Section 2.4 Authorization; Other Agreements. The Secured Parties are hereby authorized, without notice to or demand upon any Guarantor
and without discharging or otherwise affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder and
without incurring any liability hereunder, from time to time, to do each of the following, in each
case, subject to compliance with the Loan Documents:



(a) (i) modify, amend, supplement or otherwise change, (ii) accelerate or otherwise change the
time of payment or (iii) waive or otherwise consent to noncompliance with, any Guaranteed
Obligation or any Loan Document;



(b) apply to the Guaranteed Obligations any sums by whomever paid or however realized to any
Guaranteed Obligation in such order as provided in and in accordance with the Loan Documents;



(c) refund at any time any payment received by any Secured Party in respect of any Guaranteed
Obligation;



(d) (i) Sell, exchange, enforce, waive, substitute, liquidate, terminate, release, abandon,
fail to perfect, subordinate, accept, substitute, surrender, exchange, affect, impair or otherwise
alter or release any Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligation or any other guaranty therefor in any
manner, (ii) receive, take and hold additional Collateral to secure any Guaranteed Obligation,
(iii) add, release or substitute any one or more other Guarantors, makers or endorsers of any
Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof and (iv) otherwise deal in any manner with the Borrower
or any other Guarantor, maker or endorser of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof; and

Section 2.5 Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense (other than defense (i)
of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment, (ii) with respect to clause
(e) below, that an Event of Default does
not exist and (iii) that no Obligations are yet due and payable), whether arising in
connection with or in respect of any of the following or otherwise, and hereby agrees that its
obligations under this Guaranty are irrevocable, absolute and unconditional and shall not be
discharged as a result of or otherwise affected by any of the following (which may not be pleaded
and evidence of which may not be introduced in any proceeding with respect to this Guaranty, in
each case other than the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such
payment or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Administrative Agent):



(a) the invalidity or unenforceability of any obligation of the Borrower or any other
Guarantor under any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (including
any amendment, consent or waiver thereto), or any security for, or other guaranty of, any
Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or
failure of priority of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof;



(b) the absence of (i) any attempt to collect any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof
from the Borrower or any other Guarantor or other action to enforce the same or (ii) any action to
enforce any Loan Document or any Lien thereunder;



(c) the failure by any Person to take any steps to perfect and maintain any Lien on, or to
preserve any rights with respect to, any Collateral;



(d) any workout, insolvency, bankruptcy proceeding, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation
or dissolution by or against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any of the Borrower’s other
Subsidiaries or any procedure, agreement, order, stipulation, election, action or omission
thereunder, including any discharge or disallowance of, or bar or stay against collecting, any
Guaranteed Obligation (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding;



(e) any foreclosure, whether or not through judicial sale, and any other Sale of any
Collateral or any election following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default by any Secured Party to proceed separately against any Collateral in accordance with such
Secured Party’s rights under any applicable Requirement of Law; or



(f) any other defense, setoff, counterclaim or any other circumstance that might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any of the
Borrower’s other Subsidiaries in each case other than the occurrence of the Termination Date.



Section 2.6 Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert any
claim, defense (other than defense (i) of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of
such payment, (ii) that no Event of Default exists and (iii) that no Obligations are yet due and
payable), setoff or counterclaim based on diligence, promptness, presentment, requirements for any
demand or notice hereunder including any of the following: (a) any demand for payment or
performance and protest and notice of protest, (b) any notice of acceptance, (c) any presentment,
demand, protest or further notice or other requirements of any kind with respect to any Guaranteed
Obligation (including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon) becoming immediately due and

payable
and (d) any other notice in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof, and any defense arising by reason of any disability
or other defense of the Borrower or any other Guarantor. Until the Termination Date, each
Guarantor further unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to (x) enforce or otherwise exercise
any right of subrogation or any right of reimbursement or contribution or similar right against the
Borrower or any other Guarantor by reason of any Loan Document or any payment made thereunder or
(y) except to the extent otherwise permitted under Section 8.13, assert any claim, defense, setoff
or counterclaim it may have against any other Loan Party or set off any of its obligations to such
other Loan Party against obligations of such Loan Party to such Guarantor. No obligation of any
Guarantor hereunder shall be discharged other than upon the occurrence of the Termination Date.



Section 2.7 Reliance. Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial
condition of the Borrower, each other Guarantor and any other guarantor, maker or endorser of any
Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of any Guaranteed Obligation, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that no Secured Party
shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or
any such circumstances. In the event any Secured Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any
time or from time to time to provide any such information to any Guarantor, such Secured Party
shall be under no obligation to (a) undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business
routine, (b) disclose any information that such Secured Party, pursuant to accepted or reasonable
commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (c) make any future
disclosures of such information or any other information to any Guarantor.

ARTICLE VI




REMEDIAL PROVISIONS




Section 6.1 Code and Other Remedies. (a) UCC Remedies. During the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in
this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any
Secured Obligation, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other
applicable law.



(b) Disposition of Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent may, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by applicable law) to or upon any
Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices
are hereby waived), during the continuance of any Event of Default (personally or through its
agents or attorneys), (i) enter upon the premises where any Collateral is located, without any
obligation to pay rent, through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a
final judgment or giving any Grantor or any other Person notice or opportunity for a hearing on the
Administrative Agent’s claim or action, (ii) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any
Collateral and (iii) Sell, grant option or options to purchase and deliver any Collateral (enter
into Contractual Obligations to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or
private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Secured Party or elsewhere
upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for
cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative
Agent shall have the right, upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by the
UCC and other applicable Requirements of Law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or
any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption of any Grantor, which
right or equity is hereby waived and released. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent shall not assign or
otherwise dispose of any Trademark owned by any Grantor without assigning the assets and goodwill
of the business associated therewith and any such assignment without doing so shall be null and
void.

(c) Management of the Collateral. Each Grantor further agrees, that, during the
continuance of any Event of Default, (i) at the Administrative Agent’s request, it shall assemble
all or part of the tangible Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it
available to the Administrative Agent at places that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere, (ii) without limiting the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent also has the right to require that each Grantor store and keep any Collateral
pending further action by the Administrative Agent and, while any such Collateral is so stored or
kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to
preserve and maintain such Collateral in good condition, (iii) until the Administrative Agent is
able to Sell any Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use such
Collateral to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or
its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent and (iv) the
Administrative Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take
possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of the Administrative Agent’s remedies (for the
benefit of the Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing
as to such appointment. The Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to any Grantor to
maintain or preserve the rights of any Grantor as against third parties with respect to any
Collateral while such Collateral is in the possession of the Administrative Agent.



(d) Application of Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply the cash proceeds
of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.1, after deducting all reasonable
documented and out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or
incidental to the care or safekeeping of any Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or
the rights of the Administrative Agent and any other Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable
and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured
Obligations, as set forth in the Credit Agreement, and only after such application and after the
payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any Requirement of Law, need
the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor.



(e) Direct Obligation. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party
shall be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any right or remedy against, any
Grantor, any other Loan Party or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or
to pursue or exhaust any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or
indirect guaranty thereof. All of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and any
other Secured Party under any Loan Document shall be cumulative, may be exercised individually or
concurrently and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by any Requirement of Law.
To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and
relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative
Agent or any Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar
laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety, now or hereafter existing, arising
out of the exercise by them of any rights
hereunder. If any notice of a proposed Sale of any Collateral shall be a Requirement of Law,
such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such Sale.

(f) Commercially Reasonable. To the extent that applicable Requirements of Law impose
duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each
Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Administrative
Agent to do any of the following:




(i) fail to incur significant costs, expenses or other Liabilities reasonably deemed as
such by the Administrative Agent to prepare any Collateral for disposition or otherwise to
complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for
disposition;




(ii) fail to obtain Permits, or other consents, for access to any Collateral to Sell or
for the collection or Sale of any Collateral, or, if not required by other Requirements of

any Collateral or to remove Liens on any Collateral or to remove any adverse claims against
any Collateral;

acquiring any such Collateral;




(v) exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on
any Collateral, directly or through the use of collection agencies or other collection
specialists, hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of any
Collateral, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or, to the extent
deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, obtain the services of other brokers,
investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative Agent
in the collection or disposition of any Collateral, or utilize 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 to dispose of
any Collateral;



(vi) dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets;



(vii) disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment; or




(viii) purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative Agent
against risks of loss, collection or disposition of any Collateral or to provide to the
Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of any
Collateral.

Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 6.1 is to provide a
non-exhaustive list of actions or omissions that are commercially reasonable when exercising
remedies against any Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Parties shall
not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this
Section 6.1. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section
6.1 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the
Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or by applicable Requirements of Law in the absence of this Section 6.1.




(g) IP Licenses. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise
rights and remedies under this Section 6.1 (including in order to take possession of,
collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, remove, realize upon, Sell or grant options to
purchase any Collateral) at and during the continuation of such time as the Administrative Agent
shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (i) an irrevocable (until the
Termination Date), nonexclusive, worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other
compensation to such Grantor), including in such license the right to sublicense, use and practice
any Intellectual Property (with respect to Trademarks, subject to reasonable quality control in
favor of such Grantor) now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor and access to all media in
which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all Software used for the
compilation or printout thereof and (ii) an irrevocable license (without payment of rent or other
compensation to such Grantor) to use, operate and occupy all real property owned, operated, leased,
subleased or otherwise occupied by such Grantor; provided that no such license shall be
granted with respect to any Excluded Assets.



Section 6.2 Accounts and Payments in Respect of General Intangibles. (a) In addition to, and not in substitution for, any similar requirement in the Credit
Agreement, if required by the Administrative Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event
of Default, any payment of accounts or payment in respect of general intangibles that are
Collateral, when collected by any Grantor, shall be promptly (and, in any event, within five (5)
Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor
to the Administrative Agent, in a Security Cash Collateral Account, subject to withdrawal by the
Administrative Agent as provided in Section 6.4. Until so turned over, such payment shall
be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent, segregated from other funds of such
Grantor. Each such deposit of proceeds of accounts and payments in respect of general intangibles
that are Collateral shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature
and source of the payments included in the deposit.

(i) each Grantor shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, deliver to the
Administrative Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the
Contractual Obligations and transactions that gave rise to any account or any payment in
respect of general intangibles that are Collateral, including all original orders, invoices
and shipping receipts (or, to the extent originals are not available, copies of such
documents) and notify account debtors that the accounts or general intangibles have been
collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent and that payments in respect thereof
shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent;

(ii) the Administrative Agent may, without notice, at any time during the continuance
of an Event of Default, limit or terminate the authority of a Grantor to collect its
accounts or amounts due under general intangibles that are Collateral or any thereof and, in
its own name or in the name of others, communicate with account debtors to verify with them
to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any account or
amounts due under any general intangible that is Collateral. In addition, the
Administrative Agent may at any time enforce such Grantor’s rights against such account
debtors and obligors of general intangibles that are Collateral; and




(iii) at the request of the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall take all actions,
deliver all documents and provide all information necessary or reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent to ensure any Internet domain name is registered.



(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under
each account and each payment in respect of general intangibles to observe and perform all the
conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with
the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. No Secured Party shall have any obligation or
liability under any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general
intangible by reason of or arising out of any Loan Document or the receipt by any Secured Party of
any payment relating thereto, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any
obligation of any Grantor under or pursuant to any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment
in respect of a general intangible, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or
the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any
party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to
collect 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 6.3 Pledged Collateral. (a) Voting Rights. During the continuance of an Event of Default, upon notice by
the Administrative Agent to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, the Administrative Agent or its
nominee may exercise (A) any voting, consent, corporate and other right pertaining to the Pledged
Collateral at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, of the relevant
issuer or issuers of Pledged Collateral or otherwise and (B) any right of conversion, exchange and
subscription and any other right, privilege or option pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it
were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any Pledged
Collateral upon the merger, amalgamation, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other
fundamental change in the corporate or equivalent structure of any issuer of Pledged Stock, the
right to deposit and deliver any Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer agent,
registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may
determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it;
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor
to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do
so or delay in so doing.

(b) Proxies. In order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and
other consensual rights that it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all
dividends and other distributions that it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (i) during the
existence of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be
executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and
other instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request and (ii)
without limiting the effect of clause (i) above, such Grantor hereby grants to the
Administrative Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to
exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged
Collateral would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of shareholders,
partners or members, as the case may be, calling special meetings of shareholders, partners or
members, as the case may be, and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective,
automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged
Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other person (including the issuer of
such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof) during the continuance of an Event of
Default and which proxy shall only terminate upon the Termination Date.



(c) Authorization of Issuers; Dividends and Distributions. Each Grantor hereby
expressly irrevocably authorizes and instructs, without any further instructions from such Grantor,
each issuer of any Pledged Collateral pledged hereunder by such Grantor to (i) comply with any
instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that states that an Event of
Default is continuing and is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and each Grantor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected from Liabilities
to such Grantor in so complying and (ii) following the occurrence of an Event of Default, upon
notice by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, pay all dividends and make
all other payments, distributions, redemptions and returns of capital with respect to the Pledged
Collateral directly to the Administrative Agent.



Section 6.4 Proceeds to be Turned over to and Held by Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, at any time
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of any
Collateral received by any Grantor hereunder in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by such
Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other
funds of such Grantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by any Grantor, be turned over to the
Administrative Agent in the exact form received (with any necessary endorsement). All such
proceeds of Collateral and any other proceeds of any Collateral received by the Administrative
Agent in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Security Cash
Collateral Account. All proceeds being held by the Administrative Agent in a Security Cash
Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent) shall continue to be
held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof
until applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Section 6.5 Registration Rights. (a) If, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, it is necessary or advisable to Sell
any portion of the Pledged Collateral following the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default by registering such Pledged Collateral under the provisions of the Securities Act
of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), each relevant Grantor shall cause the issuer thereof to do
or cause to be done all acts as may be, in the opinion of the
Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Pledged Collateral or that
portion thereof to be Sold under the provisions of the Securities Act, all as directed by the
Administrative Agent in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto and in compliance with the
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent shall
designate.



(b) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public
sale of any Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act
and applicable state or foreign securities laws or otherwise or may determine that a public sale is
impracticable or not commercially reasonable and, accordingly, may resort to one or more private
sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers that shall be obliged to agree, among other
things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale
may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and,
notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been
made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to
delay a sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer
thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act or under applicable
state securities laws even if such issuer would agree to do so.



(c) Each Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done
all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any portion of the Pledged
Collateral pursuant to this Section 6.5 valid and binding and in compliance with all
applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any covenant
contained in this Section 6.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and
other Secured Parties, that the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate
remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant
contained in this Section 6.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and
such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific
performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing under the Credit Agreement.



Section 6.6 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of any Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and
disbursements of any attorney employed by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to
collect such deficiency. Each Grantor waives any and all rights of contribution or subrogation
upon the sale or disposition of all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral by Administrative
Agent.

Section 6.7 FCC Licenses. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent this Agreement or any
other Loan Document purports to require any Grantor to grant to Administrative Agent, on behalf
itself and the other Lenders, a Lien or Liens on any of the FCC Licenses of such Grantor, the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties, shall only have a
Lien or Liens on such FCC Licenses at such times and to the extent that a Lien or Liens, as the
case may be, on such FCC Licenses is permitted under applicable Requirement of Law, but the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the
other Secured Parties, shall have Liens, to the maximum extent permitted by law, on all rights
incident or appurtenant to such FCC Licenses and the right to receive all proceeds derived from or
in connection with the Sale of such FCC Licenses or the facilities authorized by such FCC Licenses
to which such FCC Licenses are assigned. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
herein, the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties, agrees
that to the extent prior FCC approval is required pursuant to the Communications Laws for (a) the
operation and effectiveness of any grant, right or remedy hereunder or under any Loan Document or
(b) taking any action that may be taken by Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Loan
Document, such grant, right, remedy or actions will be subject to such prior FCC approval having
been obtained by or in favor of Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other
Secured Parties. Each of the Grantors executing this Agreement agrees that, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default and the acceleration of all or any portion of the
Obligations pursuant to the provisions of the applicable Loan Documents, and at Administrative
Agent’s request, such Grantor shall promptly file, or cause to be filed, such applications for
approval and shall take all other and further actions reasonably required by Administrative Agent,
on behalf of and for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties, to obtain such FCC
approvals or consents as are reasonably necessary to transfer ownership and control to
Administrative Agent or trustee or other fiduciary acting in lieu of Agent in order to ensure
compliance with Section 310(b) and 310(d) of the Communications Act and any other provision of the
Communications Laws, on of behalf and for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the other Secured
Parties, or their successors or assigns, of the FCC Licenses held by it.



(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor shall, and, if
applicable, shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take any action which Administrative Agent may
reasonably request in the exercise of its rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents in order to transfer or assign any Collateral to Administrative Agent for the
benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties or to such one or more third parties as
Administrative Agent may designate, or to a combination of the foregoing.



(c) To enforce the provisions of this Section 6.7, Administrative Agent is empowered
to seek from the FCC and any other Governmental Authority, to the extent required, consent to or
approval of any involuntary transfer of control of any entity whose Collateral is subject to this
Agreement for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser to whom control ultimately will be
transferred. Each Grantor agrees to, and, if applicable, shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to
agree to, cooperate with any such purchaser and with Agent in the preparation, execution and filing
of any forms and providing any information that may be necessary in obtaining the consent of the
FCC or any other Governmental Authority to the assignment to such purchaser of the Collateral,
provided that no such filing of any application with the FCC shall be made unless and until
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Each Grantor agrees to, and, if applicable,
shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, consent to any such voluntary or involuntary transfer
after and during the continuation of an Event of Default and without limiting any rights of
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under any Loan Document, to authorize
Administrative Agent to nominate a trustee or receiver selected by Administrative Agent to assume
control of the Collateral, subject only to required judicial, FCC or other consents required by any
Governmental Authority, in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section
6.7. Such trustee or receiver shall have all the rights and powers as

provided to it by law or
court order, or to Administrative Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement. Each Grantor agrees to, and, if applicable, shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, cooperate to the extent necessary to obtain the consent of the FCC and the approval or consent
of each other Governmental Authority required to effectuate the foregoing. Each Grantor agrees to,
and, if applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of its Subsidiaries to
take all actions reasonably necessary to obtain all approvals, authorizations consents or waivers
necessary to transfer ownership and control of the FCC Licenses to any trustee, receiver or bona
fide purchaser on behalf of Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, including (i) the prompt
filing of all applications with the FCC or the other applicable Governmental Authorities following
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and the acceleration of all or any
portion of the Obligations, and (ii) assist in obtaining all approvals, authorizations, consents or
waivers necessary for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Such actions shall include,
without limitation, providing to Administrative Agent any FCC registration numbers, tax
identification numbers, account numbers and passwords for the FCC’s CDBS electronic filing system.



(d) Without limiting the obligations of any Grantor hereunder in any respect, each Grantor
further agrees that if it, or any of its Subsidiaries, upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, should fail or refuse for any reason whatsoever, without
limitation, including any refusal to execute and file any completed application necessary or
appropriate to obtain any governmental consent necessary or appropriate for the exercise of any
right of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder or under any Loan Document, each
Grantor agrees that such application may be executed and filed on such Grantor’s behalf by the
clerk of any court of competent jurisdiction without notice to such Grantor pursuant to court
order, provided that no such filing of any application with the FCC shall be made unless
and until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.



In connection with this Section 6.7, each of Administrative Agent and the other Secured
Parties shall be entitled to rely in good faith upon an opinion of outside FCC counsel of
Administrative Agent’s choice with respect to any such assignment or transfer, whether or not such
advice rendered is ultimately determined to have been accurate.

Section 7.1 Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and

effectively as such Grantor might do.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any Contractual Obligation contained herein
during the existence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without
any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with
such Contractual Obligation.



(c) The reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred
in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with
interest thereon at a rate set forth in Section 2.9 (Interest) of the Credit
Agreement, from the date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the date reimbursed by the
relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent on written demand.



(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done
in accordance with this Section 7.1. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in
this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated
and the security interests created hereby are released or until revoked by the Administrative
Agent.



Section 7.2 Authorization to File Financing Statements. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent and its Related Persons, at any time and
from time to time, to file or record financing statements, amendments thereto, and other filing or

Section 7.4 Duty; Obligations and Liabilities. (a) Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with
respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession
shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the
Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The powers conferred on
the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s interest in the
Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers.
The Administrative Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it receives as a result of the
exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its Related Persons shall be responsible to any
Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, the
Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral,
or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehousemen,
carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other bailee if such Person has been selected by the
Administrative Agent in good faith.



(b) Obligations and Liabilities with respect to Collateral. No Secured Party and no
Related Person thereof shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any
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 any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other
action whatsoever with regard to any Collateral. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent
hereunder shall not impose any duty upon any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The
other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result
of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder,
except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction.



ARTICLE VIII




MISCELLANEOUS




Section 8.1 Reinstatement. Each Grantor agrees that, if any payment made by any Loan Party or other Person and applied
to the Secured Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the
proceeds of any Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Loan Party, its
estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any bankruptcy law,
state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent such payment or repayment
is annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, refunded or repaid, any Lien or other
Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if
such payment had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, (a) any Lien or other
Collateral securing such Grantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by
virtue of the foregoing or (b) any provision of the Guaranty hereunder shall have been terminated,
cancelled or surrendered in connection with the foregoing payment, such Lien, other Collateral or
provision shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination,
cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the
obligations of any such Grantor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation
or the amount of such payment.

Section 8.2 Release of Collateral. (a) At the time the conditions set forth in clause (b)(iii) of Section
10.10 (Release of Collateral or Guarantors) of the Credit Agreement are
satisfied, the Collateral shall be immediately and automatically released from the Lien
created hereby and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive
such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall immediately and
automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any
party, and all rights to the Collateral shall immediately and automatically revert to the Grantors.
Each Grantor is hereby authorized to file UCC terminations and any other documentation reasonably
approved by the Administrative Agent at such time evidencing the termination of the Liens so
released. At the request of any Grantor following any such termination, the Administrative Agent
shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral of such Grantor held by the Administrative Agent
hereunder and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably
request to evidence such termination.



(b) If the Administrative Agent shall be directed or permitted pursuant to clause (i)
or (ii) of Section 10.10(b) of the Credit Agreement to release any Lien or any
Collateral, such Collateral shall be immediately and automatically released from the Lien created
hereby to the extent provided under, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, such
clauses (i) and (ii). In connection therewith, the Administrative Agent, at the
request of any Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor
shall reasonably request to evidence such release.



(c) At the time provided in Section 10.10(a) of the Credit Agreement and at the
request of the Borrower, a Grantor shall be immediately and automatically released from its
obligations hereunder in the event that the conditions set forth therein are satisfied.



Section 8.3 Independent Obligations. The obligations of each Grantor hereunder are independent of and separate from the Secured
Obligations and the Guaranteed Obligations. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole election, proceed directly and at once,
without notice, against any Grantor and any Collateral to collect and recover the full amount of
any Secured Obligation or Guaranteed Obligation then due, without first proceeding against any
other Grantor, any other Loan Party or any other Collateral and without first joining any other
Grantor or any other Loan Party in any proceeding.



Section 8.4 No Waiver by Course of Conduct. No Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section
8.6), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy
hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor
any delay in exercising, on the part of any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power or privilege. A waiver by any Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one
occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that such Secured Party would
otherwise have on any future occasion.

Section 8.5 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement;
provided, however, that annexes and schedules, as applicable to this Agreement may
be supplemented or modified (but no existing provisions may
be modified and no Collateral may be released, except with respect to the removal of items on
the schedules in connection with a Sale of Collateral, a release of a Guarantor or a merger or
acquisition, in each case, permitted under the Loan Documents, and no such supplement or
modification of any schedule or annex hereto shall, in and of itself, effect a waiver of any
misrepresentation or warranty, other violation of this Agreement or Event of Default unless
expressly waived in writing by the Administrative Agent or Secured Parties pursuant to this
Agreement and the Credit Agreement) through Pledge Amendments and Joinder Agreements, in
substantially the form of Annex 1 and Annex 2, respectively, in each case duly
executed by the Administrative Agent and each Grantor directly affected thereby. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, any time period for performance under this Agreement may
be extended, at any time, by the Administrative Agent in writing at its sole discretion.



Section 8.6 Additional Grantors; Additional Pledged Collateral. (a) Joinder Agreements. If, at the option of the Borrower or as required pursuant
to Section 7.10 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall cause any Subsidiary that is
not a Grantor to become a Grantor hereunder, such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex 2 and shall
thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and have the same rights, benefits and obligations as
a Grantor party hereto on the Closing Date.



(b) Pledge Amendments. To the extent any Pledged Collateral has not been delivered as
of the Closing Date, such Grantor shall deliver a pledge amendment duly executed by the Grantor in
substantially the form of Annex 1 (each, a “Pledge Amendment”). Such Grantor
authorizes the Administrative Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement.



Section 8.7 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor
hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 11.11 of the Credit
Agreement; provided, however, that any such notice, request or demand to or upon
any Grantor shall be addressed to the Borrower’s notice address set forth in such Section
11.11.



Section 8.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall
inure to the benefit of each Secured Party and their successors and assigns; provided,
however, that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.



Section 8.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in
