Each delivery of Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the Pledged Securities, which schedule shall be deemed to supplement Schedule II and made a part hereof; provided that failure to supplement Schedule II shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered.

 

(d)                        No actions in any non-U.S. jurisdiction or required by the Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction shall be required in order to create any security interests in assets located, titled, registered or filed outside of the U.S. or to perfect such security interests (it being understood that there shall be no security agreements or pledge agreements governed under the Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction).

(d)                                 as of the Closing Date, except for restrictions and limitations (i) imposed or permitted by the Loan Documents, (subject to the terms of the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement) the Second Lien Loan Documents, Contractual Obligations permitted pursuant to Section 7.09 of the Credit Agreement, or securities laws generally, (ii) imposed by the Communications Act with respect to any proposed transfer of control or assignment of a FCC Authorization, and (iii) in the case of Pledged Equity of Persons that are not Subsidiaries, transfer restrictions that exist at the time of acquisition of Equity Interests in such Persons (but not entered into in contemplation thereof), the Pledged Collateral is freely transferable and assignable, and none of the Pledged Collateral is subject to any option, right of first refusal, shareholders agreement, charter or bylaw provisions or contractual restriction of any nature that could reasonably be expected to prohibit, impair, delay or otherwise affect, in each case, in any manner material and adverse to the Secured Parties the pledge of such Pledged Collateral hereunder, the sale or disposition thereof pursuant hereto or the exercise by the Administrative Agent of rights and remedies hereunder;

 

(e)                                  the execution and performance by the Grantors of this Agreement are within each Grantor’s corporate or limited liability company powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action or other organizational action;

 

(f)                                   no approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action, filing, notice or registration is necessary to ensure the validity of the pledge effected hereby, except for (i) approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations, or other actions by, or notices to, or filings and registrations necessary to perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Secured Parties (or release existing Liens) under applicable U.S. law, (ii) the approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations, actions, notices and filings which have been duly obtained, taken, given or made and are in full force and effect (except to the extent not required to be obtained, taken, given or made or in full force and effect pursuant to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement) and (iii) those approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations or other actions, notices or filings, the failure of which to obtain or make could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

 

(g)                                  by virtue of the execution and delivery by each Grantor of this Agreement, and delivery of the Pledged Equity to and continued possession by the Administrative Agent in the State of New York, the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) has a legal, valid and perfected first-priority lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Equity as security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations to the extent such perfection is governed by the UCC, subject only to Liens permitted by Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement and the Enforcement Qualifications;

 

(h)                                 by virtue of (i) the filing of UCC financing statements or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations prepared by the Administrative Agent based upon the information provided to the Administrative Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in the applicable

filing office, in each case, as required by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) delivery of the Pledged Debt to and continued possession of the Pledged Debt by the Administrative Agent in the State of New York, the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) has a legal, valid and perfected security interest in respect of all Collateral in which the Security Interest in the Pledged Debt may be perfected by filing or recording in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the UCC or by possession of the Pledged Debt (subject, in each case, to the Enforcement Qualifications); and

 

(i)                                     the pledge effected hereby is effective to vest in the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the rights set forth herein of the Administrative Agent in the Pledged Collateral.

 

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Grantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it will comply with instructions of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Equity Interests in such Grantor that constitute Pledged Equity hereunder without further consent by the applicable owner or holder of such Equity Interests.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent any provision of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement excludes any assets from the scope of the Pledged Collateral, or from any requirement to take any action to perfect any security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent in the Pledged Collateral, the representations, warranties and covenants made by any relevant Grantor in this Agreement with respect to the creation, perfection or priority (as applicable) of the security interest granted in favor of the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, this Section 2.03) shall be deemed not to apply to such excluded assets.

 

Section 2.04.                          Certification of Limited Liability Company and Limited Partnership Interests.  No interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor that constitutes Pledged Equity is, or shall be, represented by a certificate unless the limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement expressly provides that such interests shall be a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC; provided that, regardless of whether such Pledged Equity is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, any and all certificates evidencing such Pledged Equity shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.02. If any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor, the interest of which is pledged under Section 2.01, includes in its limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement that any interests in such limited liability company or such limited partnership be a “security” as defined under Article 8 of the UCC, the applicable Grantor shall promptly certificate any Equity Interests in any such limited liability company or such limited partnership. To the extent an interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 2.01 is certificated or becomes certificated, (i) each such certificate shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to Section 2.02(a) and (ii) such Grantor shall fulfill all other requirements under Section 2.02 applicable in respect thereof. To the extent an interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 2.01 is an “uncertificated security” as defined under Article 8 of the UCC, each Grantor shall not permit any issuer of such uncertificated securities (other than (x) an uncertificated security credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary and (y) an uncertificated security issued by a Person that is not a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower) to (i) enter into any agreement with any Person, other than the Administrative Agent, whereby such

 

7











 

issuer effectively delivers “control” of such uncertificated securities under the UCC to such Person, or (ii) allow such uncertificated securities to become “certificated securities”, as defined under Article 8 of the UCC, unless such Grantor complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04.

 

Section 2.05.                          Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given the Borrower two (2) Business Days prior written notice of its intent to exercise such rights, (a) the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to hold the Pledged Equity in its own name as pledgee, the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as subagent) or the name of the applicable Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Administrative Agent and each Grantor will promptly give to the Administrative Agent copies of any written notices or other written communications received by it with respect to Pledged Equity registered in the name of such Grantor and (b) to the extent permitted by the documentation governing such Pledged Equity, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Equity for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.

 

Section 2.06.                          Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest.

 

(a)                                 Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have provided two (2) Business Days prior written notice to the Borrower that the rights of the Grantor under this Section 2.06 are being suspended:

 

(i)                       Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof and each Grantor agrees that it shall not exercise such rights in violation of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

(ii)                    The Administrative Agent shall promptly (after reasonable advance notice) execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (i) above.

 

(iii)                 Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable Laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Equity or Pledged Debt, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion)

 

8











 

delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any endorsement reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent). So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to each Grantor any Pledged Securities in its possession if requested to be delivered to the issuer thereof in connection with any exchange or redemption of such Pledged Securities permitted by the Credit Agreement in accordance with this Section 2.06(a)(iii).

 

(b)                        Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower of the suspension of the Grantors’ rights under paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06, then all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 2.06 shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) delivered to the Administrative Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any endorsement reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Administrative Agent in an account to be established by the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Administrative Agent shall promptly repay to each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06 and that remain in such account.

 

(c)                         Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Administrative Agent shall have provided the Borrower with notice of the suspension of its rights under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, then all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, and the obligations of the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Grantor shall have the exclusive right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that the Borrower would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(i) above, and the obligations of the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06 shall be reinstated.

 

(d)                        In order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder, each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request, but in any event solely after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and after having provided required notice to Borrower of its desire to exercise

 

9











 

its rights hereunder, and each Grantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may utilize the power of attorney set forth in Section 6.13 herein in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

(e)                         Any notice given by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower under Section 2.05 or this Section 2.06 (i) shall be given in writing, (ii) may be given with respect to one or more Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under paragraph (a)(i) or paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 in part without suspending all such rights (as specified by the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Administrative Agent’s rights to give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

(f)                          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise voting rights under this Section 2.06 with respect to any Pledged Securities unless and until it has obtained  FCC consent to any transfers of control or assignments that would result from the assumption of  voting rights for such Pledged Securities (if applicable).

(b)                        Subject to Section 3.01(e), each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto and continuations thereof that (i) indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the debtor, whether now existing or hereafter arising” or words of similar effect as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail and (ii) contain the information required by Article 9 of the UCC or the analogous legislation of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and, if required, any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor. Each Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon any reasonable request.

 

(c)                         The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral; provided that the foregoing will not limit or otherwise affect the obligations and liabilities of the Grantors to the extent set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.

 

(d)                        Upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice (or, with respect to filings as of the Closing Date, without any such notice) to the applicable Grantor, the Administrative Agent is authorized to file with the USPTO or the USCO (or any successor office) additional documents (including any Intellectual Property Security Agreements and/or supplements thereto) as may be necessary for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest in the Registered Intellectual Property Collateral of each Grantor in which a security interest has been granted by each Grantor, and naming any Grantor as debtor and the Administrative Agent as secured party.

Section 3.02.                          Representations and Warranties.  Each Grantor, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties that:

 

(a)                        Each Grantor has good and valid rights in and title (except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents) to (or, with respect to Licenses, a license or other permission to use) the Article 9 Collateral with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full organizational power and authority to grant to the Administrative Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority other than (i) any consent or approval that has been obtained or (ii) any consent or approval for which the lack thereof could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)                        The Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information set forth therein is correct and complete in all material respects (except the information therein with respect to the exact legal name of each Grantor shall be correct and complete in all respects) as of the Closing Date.

12











 

(c)                         Each Grantor represents and warrants that the Intellectual Property Security Agreements containing a description of all Registered Intellectual Property Collateral (other than, in each case, any Excluded Assets), have been delivered as of or prior to the date hereof to the Administrative Agent for recording with the USPTO and the USCO pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations thereunder, as applicable (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Registered Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent required by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. To the extent a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration with the USPTO or the USCO under the U.S. Federal intellectual property laws, then no further or subsequent filing, re-filing, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than (i) such filings and actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Registered Intellectual Property Collateral acquired, owned, filed or developed by or on behalf of any Grantor after the date hereof and (ii) the UCC financing and continuation statements contemplated in Section 3.02(b)).

 

(d)                                 The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section 3.02(b), a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) pursuant to the UCC, and (iii) subject to the filings described in Section 3.02(c), a perfected security interest in all Intellectual Property included in the Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a security agreement or analogous document with the USPTO or the USCO, as applicable. The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, other than any Liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(e)                         The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, except for Liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of (i) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the USPTO or the USCO or (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement and assignments expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement.

 

(f)                          As of the date hereof, no Grantor has any Commercial Tort Claim in respect of which a complaint or a counterclaim has been filed by such Grantor, seeking damages in an amount reasonably estimated to exceed $2,500,000, other than the Commercial Tort Claims listed on Schedule III.

 

Section 3.03.                          Covenants.

 

(a)                        The Borrower agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (x) promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days following (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), any change in (i) the legal name of any Grantor, (ii) the identity or type of organization or corporate structure of any Grantor, or (iii) the jurisdiction of organization of any Grantor and (y) promptly, but at any event within twenty (20) Business Days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its

 

13











 

reasonable discretion) after any change in (i) the chief executive office of any Grantor or (ii) the organizational identification number of such Grantor, if any.

 

(b)                        Subject to Section 3.01(e), each Grantor shall, at its own expense, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Collateral against all Persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Administrative Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement; provided that, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of its assets or properties if such discontinuance is permitted by the Credit Agreement.

 

(c)                         Subject to Section 3.01(e), each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to promptly execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request to better assure, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and taxes reasonably required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements or other documents in connection herewith or therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall require any Grantor to make any filings or take any other actions in any jurisdiction outside of the United States to record or perfect the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any Intellectual Property of any Grantor.

 

(d)                        At its option after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Grantors, the Administrative Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and within a reasonable period of time after the Administrative Agent has required that it do so, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, the Grantors shall not be obligated to reimburse the Administrative Agent with respect to any Intellectual Property that any Grantor has failed to maintain or pursue, or otherwise allowed to lapse, terminate or be put into the public domain in accordance with Section 3.03(f)(iv).  Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.

 

(e)                         If at any time any Grantor shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or any other Person the value of which is in excess of $2,500,000 to secure payment and performance of an Account, such Grantor shall promptly grant a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such grant shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in any Excluded Assets. Such grant need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.

 

14












 

(f)                          Intellectual Property Covenants.

 

(i)                       Other than to the extent not prohibited herein or in the Credit Agreement, or with respect to registrations and applications no longer used by or useful to Grantors in the applicable Grantor’s business operations, or except to the extent failure to act would not, as deemed by the applicable Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to each registration or pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property for which such Grantor has standing to do so, each Grantor agrees to take, at its expense, all reasonable steps, including, without limitation, in the USPTO, the USCO and any other governmental authority located in the United States, to pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark, or Copyright registration or application now or hereafter included in the Collateral owned by such Grantor that are not Excluded Assets.

 

(ii)                    Other than to the extent not prohibited herein or in the Credit Agreement, or with respect to registrations and applications no longer used by or useful to Grantors in the applicable Grantor’s business operations, or except as would not, as deemed by the applicable Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, excluding Excluded Assets, may lapse, be terminated, become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain (or in the case of a trade secret, become publicly known).

 

(iii)                 Other than as excluded or as not prohibited herein or in the Credit Agreement, or with respect to Patents, Copyrights or Trademarks which are no longer used by or useful to Grantors in the applicable Grantor’s business operations, or except where failure to do so would not, as deemed by the applicable Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall take all reasonable steps to preserve and protect each item of Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks owned by such Grantor, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the Closing Date, and taking reasonable steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the Trademarks abide by the applicable license’s terms with respect to standards of quality.

 

(iv)                Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document prevents or shall be deemed to prevent any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or maintenance of, failing to pursue, or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or be put into the public domain, any of its Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such disposition of, discontinuance, failure to pursue, or other allowance to lapse, termination, or placement in the public domain is desirable in the conduct of its business.

 

(v)                   Within the same delivery period as required for the delivery of the financial statements required to be delivered under Section 6.01(a) and (b) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall provide a list of any Registered Intellectual Property Collateral owned by all Grantors not listed in any Intellectual Property Security Agreement previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, together with supplemental Intellectual Property Security Agreements covering all such Registered Intellectual Property Collateral duly executed by such Grantors and in proper form for recording, and

 

15











 

shall promptly file and record such supplemental Intellectual Property Security Agreements with the USPTO or the USCO, as applicable.

 

(g)                         Commercial Tort Claims. If the Grantors shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount reasonably estimated by such Grantor to exceed $2,500,000 for which this clause has not been satisfied and for which a complaint in a court of competent jurisdiction has been filed, such Grantor shall, on the date on which a Compliance Certificate is delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02(a) of the Credit Agreement for the fiscal quarter in which such complaint was filed, notify the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor including a summary description of such claim and grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party with respect to the Secured Obligations, including the Guaranteed Obligations, under the UCC or other applicable Law or in equity and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Administrative Agent, promptly assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under Law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with written notice thereof prior to such occupancy; (iii) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral; provided that the Administrative Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with written notice thereof prior to such exercise; and (iv) subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable Law and the notice requirements described below, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such sale of securities (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by Law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any Law now existing or hereafter enacted.

 

The Administrative Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is commercially reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Administrative Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place

 

16











 

for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Administrative Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, 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 sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable Law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Administrative Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Administrative Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at Law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

 

Section 4.02.                          Application of Proceeds.  The Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash in accordance with Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement.

 

The Administrative 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 Administrative Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

 

17











 

The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on information supplied to it as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Secured Obligations, provided that nothing in this sentence shall prevent any Grantor from contesting any amounts claimed by any Secured Party in any information so supplied. All distributions made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be final (absent manifest error).

 

Section 4.03.                          Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property.  For the exclusive purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at and during the continuance of such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies at any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a nonexclusive, royalty-free, limited license (exercisable until the termination or cure of the Event of Default) to use, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor or for which such Grantor has the ability to grant sublicenses, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided, however, that all of the foregoing rights of the Administrative Agent to use such licenses, sublicenses and other rights, and (to the extent permitted by the terms of such licenses and sublicenses) all licenses and sublicenses granted thereunder, shall expire immediately upon the termination or cure of all Events of Default (together with the Borrower’s written notice to the Administrative Agent of such termination or cure) and shall be exercised by the Administrative Agent solely in connection with the Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 4.01 and, to the extent reasonably practicable, upon prior written notice to the Borrower, and nothing in this Section 4.03 shall require Grantors to grant any license that is prohibited by any rule of law, statute or regulation, or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing, giving rise to or theretofore granted, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, with respect to such property or otherwise unreasonably prejudices the value thereof to the relevant Grantor; provided, further, that any such license and any such license granted by the Administrative Agent to a third party shall include reasonable and customary terms and conditions necessary to preserve the existence, validity and enforceability of the affected Intellectual Property, including provisions requiring the continuing confidential handling of trade secrets, requiring the use of appropriate notices and prohibiting the use of false notices, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to Patents, copyright notices and restrictions on decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software (it being understood and agreed that, without limiting any other rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or applicable Law, nothing in the foregoing license grant shall be construed as granting the Administrative Agent rights in and to such Intellectual Property above and beyond (x) the rights to such Intellectual Property that each Grantor has reserved for itself and (y) in the case of Intellectual Property that is licensed to any such Grantor by a third party, the extent to which such Grantor has the right to grant a sublicense under such Intellectual Property hereunder). For the avoidance of doubt, the use of such license by the Administrative Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent, only during the continuance of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may also exercise the rights afforded under Section 4.01 of this Agreement with respect to Intellectual Property contained in the Article 9 Collateral.

 

Section 4.04.                          Effect of Securities Laws.  Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral

 

18











 

by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will 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 of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the applicable 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.

 

Section 4.05.                          Deficiency.  Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Secured Obligations and, to the extent set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

 

Section 4.06.                          FCC Authorizations; Related Collateral.

 

(a)                                 The Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder (and the rights of any receiver appointed by reason of the exercise of remedies hereunder) with respect to the FCC Authorizations and any Collateral subject to such FCC Authorizations, as applicable, are expressly subject to, and limited by any obligations and/or restrictions imposed by, the Communications Act.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but without waiving or limiting any obligations of any Grantor hereunder, neither the Administrative Agent nor any receiver appointed by reason of the exercise of remedies hereunder shall control, supervise, direct, or manage, or attempt to control, supervise, direct, or manage, the business of any Grantor, in any case that would constitute or result in any assignment of any FCC Authorization or a direct or indirect transfer of control of any Grantor, or any FCC Authorization, whether de jure or de facto, if such assignment or such direct or indirect transfer of control would require, under the Communications Act, the prior approval of the FCC or any other Governmental Authority without first obtaining such approval.

 

(c)                                  Subject to the terms and conditions herein, each Grantor agrees to take any lawful action with respect to requesting and obtaining any approvals from any Governmental Authority that may be required by Law which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties by this Agreement, including, specifically, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and an exercise of the Administrative Agent’s remedies hereunder, such Grantor’s full cooperation in lawfully obtaining any approval of the FCC and of any other Governmental Authority that is then required under the Communications Act or any other Law for the exercise of the Administrative Agent’s remedies under this Agreement.

 SUBORDINATION

 

Section 5.01.                          Subordination.

 

(a)                        Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Grantors to indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable Law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full of the Obligations (other than (i) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, (ii) Cash Management Obligations, (iii) obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements  and (iv) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations related to Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized, backstopped by a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer or deemed reissued under another agreement reasonably acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer). No failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Grantor to make the payments required under applicable Law or otherwise shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Grantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Grantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the Obligations of such Grantor hereunder.

 

(b)                        Each Grantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after written notice from the Administrative Agent, all Indebtedness owed to it by any other Grantor shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full of the Obligations (other than (i) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted (ii) Cash Management Obligations, (iii) obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements and (iv) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations related to Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized, back-stopped by a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer or deemed reissued under another agreement reasonably acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer).

(a)                        No failure or delay by any Secured Party in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Secured Parties herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 6.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan, the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the provision of services under Treasury Services Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreements shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

This Agreement shall become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Grantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such

assignment or transfer shall be void) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, except to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement.

(a)                        This Agreement (other than with respect to provisions hereof that expressly survive termination), the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate with respect to all Secured Obligations and any Liens arising therefrom shall be automatically released upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than, in each case, (i) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, (ii) Cash Management Obligations, (iii) obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements and (iv)

 

22











 

the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations related to Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized, back-stopped by a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer or deemed reissued under another agreement reasonably acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer).

 

(b)                        A Subsidiary Party shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Security Interest and any Liens granted herein to the Administrative Agent in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Party shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by and in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary.

 

(c)                         Upon any Disposition by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under and in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement (other than a sale or transfer to another Loan Party), or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released.

 

(d)                        The security interest granted hereby in any Collateral shall be subordinated to another Lien permitted by Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement to be senior to the Liens securing the Secured Obligations, in accordance with the terms of Section 9.10(c) of the Credit Agreement, either (i) upon an election by the Administrative Agent to subordinate such security interest or (ii) in respect of Liens permitted by Sections 7.01(b), (u), (w) (with respect to assumed Indebtedness), (aa) (with respect to Sections 7.01(b) and (u) of the Credit Agreement) and (bb) of the Credit Agreement, upon Borrower’s reasonable request (with Administrative Agent’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

 

(e)                         In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 6.11, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release and shall perform such other actions reasonably requested by such Grantor to effect such release, including delivery of certificates, securities and instruments. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 6.11 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

 

Section 6.12.                          Additional Grantors.  Pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement, certain additional Restricted Subsidiaries of the Grantors may be required to enter in this Agreement as Grantors. Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and a Restricted Subsidiary of a Security Agreement Supplement, such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder, except to the extent obtained on or prior to such date and in full force and effect on such date. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

 

Section 6.13.                          Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  Each Grantor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, in each case, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of

 

23











 

the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and, to the extent reasonably practicable, notice by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise such rights, with full power of substitution either in the Administrative Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, to send verifications of accounts receivable to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at Law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (g) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, to notify, or to require the Borrower or any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Administrative Agent; (h) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, to otherwise communicate with any Account Debtor; (i) to make, settle and adjust claims in respect of Collateral under policies of insurance, endorse the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance; (j) to make all determinations and decisions with respect to policies of insurance; (k) to obtain or maintain the policies of insurance required by Section 6.07 of the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto; and (l) except as prohibited by the Communications Act as an unauthorized transfer of control, to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Administrative Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrative Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their 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, bad faith, willful misconduct, or material breach of this Agreement or that of any of their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors, counsel, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other representatives, in each case, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. All sums disbursed by the Administrative Agent in connection with this paragraph shall be payable pursuant to the terms of Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 6.14.                          General Authority of the Administrative Agent.  By acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and any other Collateral Documents, each Secured Party (whether or not a signatory hereto) shall be deemed irrevocably (a) to consent to the appointment of the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under such other Collateral Documents, (b) to confirm that the Administrative Agent shall have the authority to act as the exclusive agent of such Secured Party for the enforcement of any provisions of this Agreement and such other Collateral Documents against any Grantor, the exercise of remedies hereunder or thereunder and the giving or withholding of any consent or approval hereunder or thereunder relating to any Collateral or any Grantor’s obligations with respect thereto, (c) to agree that it shall not take any action to enforce any provisions of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document against any
