Grantor agrees that the Secured Parties need not give more than ten (10) days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters.

 

(b)     Grantor also agrees to pay all fees, costs and expenses of the Secured Parties, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights and remedies hereunder.

 

(c)     Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law or under the Senior Credit Facility) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

 

(d)     The Proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be received by the Lenders’ Agent and distributed by Lenders’ Agent to the Secured Parties to be applied to the Secured Obligations in the following order of priorities:

FIRST, to the reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred by Lenders’ Agent but not yet paid in connection with the sale, disposition or other realization on the Collateral, including all fees, costs, expenses, liabilities in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees; 

 

SECOND the extent that any Secured Party has advanced to the Lenders’ Agent any amount in connection with the sale, disposition or other realization on the Collateral, then to each Secured Party in an amount sufficient to pay in full the reasonable costs of such Secured Party actually advanced by such Secured Party in connection with such sale, disposition or other realization, including all fees, costs, expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by any Secured Party in connection therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees;

 

THIRD, to the Secured Parties in amounts proportional to the Pro Rata share of the then unpaid Secured Obligations of each Secured Party; 

 

FOURTH, upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations, to the holder of any subordinate security interest, judgment lien or other similar encumbrance affecting the Collateral, in accordance with the UCC, otherwise applicable law or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct; and

 

FINALLY, thereafter to Grantor or its representatives, in accordance with the UCC or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

 

(e)     The costs of enforcing or pursuing any right or remedy hereunder, including without limitation any repossession, sale, possession and management (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), and distribution shall be borne Pro Rata by the Secured Parties to the extent that such costs, fees and expenses are not paid by Grantor and without prejudice to the right of Lenders’ Agent to recover the same from Grantor as provided in this Security Agreement, the Purchase Agreements and the Notes. Each Secured Party shall pay to the Lenders’ Agent promptly upon demand therefor, its Pro Rata share of all such costs.

 

8.     MISCELLANEOUS.

 

8.1     Waivers; Amendments. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Grantor and the Lenders’ Agent; provided, however that Schedule A shall be deemed automatically amended to add the name of any Subsidiary acquired by Grantor after the date hereof without any executed writing required.

8.4     Counterparts; Facsimile. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. This Security Agreement and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of electronic mail or a facsimile machine, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of electronic mail or a facsimile machine to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of electronic mail or a facsimile machine as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

 

8.5     Governing Law. In all respects, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, this Security Agreement and the Secured Obligations arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and performed in such state, without regard to the conflict of laws provisions of the State of New York or of any other state.

8.7     Severability. Should any provision of this Security Agreement be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such defect shall not affect the remainder of this Security Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect.’

 

8.8     Subordination Agreement. This Security Agreement and the Loan Documents (other than the Subordination Agreement) are subject to the Subordination Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms and condition of this Security Agreement or any Loan Document (other than the Subordination Agreement), on the one hand, and the Subordination Agreement, on the other hand, the terms and conditions of the Subordination Agreement shall govern and control.
