and other taxes, assessments and government charges or levies imposed upon, and all claims (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) against, the Equipment or Inventory, except to the extent the validity or amount thereof is being
contested in good faith, by appropriate proceeding and adequate reserves, to the extent required by GAAP, are being maintained in connection therewith. 
  
 5.9 Limitations on Disposition. Except as described on Schedule 4.26 to the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall keep the Collateral
separate and identifiable from other property located on the same premises as the Collateral and no Grantor shall sell, lease, license outside the ordinary course of its business, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, or attempt or
contract to do so, except as permitted by Section 6.3 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 5.10 Further Identification of Collateral. Each Grantor shall, if so requested by the Administrative Agent, furnish to the Administrative Agent, as often as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail. 
  
 5.11 Notices. Each Grantor shall advise the
Administrative Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, of (a) any material lien, other than Permitted Encumbrances, attaching to or asserted against any of the Collateral, (b) any material change in the composition of the Collateral and (c) the
occurrence of any other event which could reasonably be expected to have or result in a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Collateral or on the security interest created hereunder. 
  
 5.12 Right of Inspection and Audit. Each Grantor shall
permit the Administrative Agent such rights of inspection and audit as provided in the Credit Agreement. 
  
 5.13 Maintenance of Facilities. Each Grantor shall maintain and protect its properties, assets and facilities, including, without

or cause to be made all needful and proper repairs, renewals and replacements thereto and shall competently manage and care for its property in accordance with prudent industry practices. 
  
 5.14 Continuous Perfection. No Grantor shall change its name, identity or corporate structure in any
manner unless such Grantor shall have given the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have taken all action (or made arrangements to take such action substantially simultaneously with such change

 5.15 Authorizations with Respect to Financing Statements,
etc. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to 
  

 -12- 








 time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that
(i) indicate the Collateral (A) as “all assets” of such Grantor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC of such jurisdiction, or (B)
as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (ii) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including (A)
whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to such Grantor, and (B) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating any Collateral as as-extracted
collateral or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of the real property to which such Collateral relates. Each Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request. Each Grantor also ratifies its
authorization for the Administrative Agent to have filed in any UCC jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

 (a) Each Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, all
certificates or Instruments representing or evidencing any Pledged Collateral (other than Instruments to be promptly deposited for collection and other Instruments with an aggregate value of less than $25,000) whether now existing or hereafter
acquired, in suitable form for transfer by delivery or, as applicable, accompanied by such Grantor’s endorsement, where necessary, or duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. After the occurrence of an Event of Default and during its continuance without prior notice to any Grantor, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time in its discretion, to transfer to or to
register in its name or in the name of its nominees any or all of the Pledged Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing any of the Pledged Collateral for
certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. 
  
 (b) Except as provided in Section 7, each Grantor shall be entitled to receive all dividends paid and distributions and other payments made in respect of the Pledged Collateral. Any sums paid upon or in respect of any of the Pledged
Collateral upon the liquidation or dissolution of any issuer of any of the Pledged Collateral, any distribution of capital made on or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or any property distributed upon or with respect to any of the Pledged
Collateral pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any issuer of Pledged Collateral or pursuant to the reorganization thereof shall, 
  

 -13- 








 unless otherwise subject to a perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, be delivered to the
Administrative Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor. If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence in respect of any
of the Pledged Collateral shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent, hold such money or property in trust for the Administrative Agent, segregated from other
funds of such Grantor, as additional security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor. 
  
 (c) Except as provided in Section 7, such Grantor will be entitled to exercise all voting, consent and rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast,
consent given or right exercised or other action taken by such Grantor which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Security Agreement, any other Loan Document or, without prior notice to
the Administrative Agent, to enable or take any other action to permit any issuer of Pledged Collateral to issue any stock or other Securities of any nature or to issue any other securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or
exchange for any stock or other Securities of any nature of any issuer of Pledged Collateral. 
  
 (d) No Grantor shall grant control over any Investment Property to any Person other than the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (e) In the case of each Grantor which is an issuer of Pledged Collateral, such Grantor agrees to be bound by the terms of this Security Agreement
relating to the Pledged Collateral issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it. In the case of each Grantor which is a partner in a partnership, such Grantor hereby consents to the extent required by the
applicable partnership agreement to the pledge by each other Grantor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the pledged partnership interests in such partnership and to the transfer of such pledged partnership interests to the Administrative Agent or its
nominee and to the substitution of the Administrative Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner in such partnership with all the rights, powers and duties of a general partner or a limited partner, as the case may be. In the case of each Grantor
which is a member of a limited liability company, such Grantor hereby consents to the extent required by the applicable limited liability company agreement to the pledge by each other Grantor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the pledged limited
liability company interests in such limited liability company and to the transfer of such pledged limited liability company interests to the Administrative Agent or its nominee and to the substitution of the Administrative Agent or its nominee as a
substituted member of the limited liability company with all the rights, powers and duties of a member of the limited liability company in question. 
  
 (f) No Grantor shall agree to any provision in, or amendment of, a limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement that adversely affects
the perfection of the security interest of the Administrative Agent in any pledged partnership interests or pledged limited liability company interests pledged by such Grantor hereunder, including electing to treat the membership interest or
partnership interest of such Grantor as a security under Section 8-103 of the UCC. 
  

 -14- 








 5.19 Prior Action. Each Grantor hereby agrees and confirms that all stock
certificates, endorsements, stock powers and similar documents that have been previously delivered to the Administrative Agent are deemed to be delivered in connection with this Security Agreement and shall continue to be effective with respect to
the Liens granted under this Security Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 6.
The Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. 
  
 (a) Subject to Section 6(b) below, each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and
lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, from time to time at the Administrative Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying
out the terms of this Security Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement and, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor to do the following: 
  
 (i) to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and
receipts for any and all monies due or to become due under any Collateral and, in the name of such Grantor, in its own name or otherwise to take possession of, endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other Instruments for the
payment of monies due under any Collateral and to file any claim or to take or commence any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and
all such monies due under any Collateral whenever payable; 
  
 (ii) to pay or discharge any Liens, including, without limitation, any tax lien, levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, to effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Security Agreement and
to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof, which actions shall be for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and not any Grantor; and 
  
 (iii) to (1) direct any person liable for any payment under or in respect of any of the Collateral to make payment
of any and all monies due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct, (2) receive payment of any and all monies, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time arising out
of or in respect of any Collateral, (3) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against Grantors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with Accounts and other
Instruments and Documents constituting or relating to the Collateral, (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any part thereof and to
enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral, (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against any Grantor with respect to any Collateral, (6) settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above and, in
connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate, (7) sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with 
  

 -15- 








 any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes, and to do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and the Grantors’ expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon
the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Grantors might do. 
  
 (b) The Administrative Agent agrees that, except upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney or any rights granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 6. Each Grantor hereby ratifies, to the extent not prohibited by law, all that said attorney shall lawfully do or
cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 6 is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Secured Obligations are completely and paid and performed in full. 

 
 (c) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are
solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers. Except to the extent Section 9207 of the UCC imposes a duty or a duty is otherwise
imposed by applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, including any responsibility for (a) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral or
(b) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Investment Property, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters.
Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as any Grantor
reasonably requests in writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default. Failure of the Administrative Agent to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to
exercise reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives
shall be responsible to the Grantors for any act or failure to act, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  
 (d) Each Grantor also authorizes the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of
any Event of Default, to (i) communicate in its own name with any party to any Contract with regard to the assignment of the right, title and interest of any Grantor in and under the Contracts hereunder and other matters relating thereto and (ii)
execute, in connection with the sale of Collateral provided for in Section 7, below, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral. 
  
 (e) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its
agreements contained herein and the Administrative Agent, as provided for by the terms of this Security Agreement, shall perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable expenses, including
attorneys’ fees and costs, of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together 
  

 -16- 








 with interest thereon at a rate of interest equal to the per annum rate of interest charged on the Advances, shall be
payable by the Grantors to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Banking Days of demand and shall constitute Secured Obligations secured hereby. 
  
 SECTION 7. Rights and Remedies Upon Event of Default. 
  
 (a) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise, in addition to all
other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of
a secured party under applicable law, including, without limitation, the UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that in any such event the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other
demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Grantors or any other person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly
waived to the maximum extent not prohibited by the UCC and other applicable law), shall have the right to collect the Proceeds from all Collateral (including, without limitation, dividends or distributions on Pledged Collateral) and may (i) reclaim,
take possession, recover, store, maintain, finish, repair, prepare for sale or lease, ship, advertise for sale or lease and sell or lease (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral, and in connection with liquidation of the Collateral and
collection of the accounts receivable pledged as Collateral, use any trademark, trade name, trade style, copyright, or process used or owned by any Grantor; (ii) forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part
thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales,
at any exchange or broker’s board or at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk and (iii) exercise (A)
all voting, consent, corporate and other rights 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 and all
rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged
Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any issuer of securities pledged hereunder, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the 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, but 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. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent, on the terms set
forth in this Section 7, to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which, in the opinion of
the Administrative Agent, appears to be prior or superior to its security interest. The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent not prohibited by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to
purchase the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of 
  

 -17- 








 redemption, which equity of redemption each Grantor hereby releases. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral
without giving any warranties as to the Collateral and may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, which procedures shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Subject to applicable
law, each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at any
Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale as provided in Section 7(g), below, and Grantors shall remain liable for
any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and only after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9608(a)(1)(C) of the
UCC (or any other then applicable provision of the UCC), need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantors. To the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands
against the Administrative Agent arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. Each Grantor agrees that the Administrative
Agent need not give more than ten (10) days’ prior written notice (which notification shall be given in accordance with the Credit Agreement) 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. Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Secured Obligations, and Grantors shall also be
liable for the attorneys’ fees or costs of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency. 
  
 (b) As to any Collateral constituting certificated securities or uncertificated securities, if, at any time when the Administrative Agent shall
determine to exercise its right to sell the whole or any part of such Collateral hereunder, such Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under Securities Act of 1933, as amended (as
so amended the “Act”), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), sell such Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the
Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable, but subject to the other requirements of this Section 7(b), and shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, in any such event the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, (i) in accordance with applicable securities laws, proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such
Collateral or part thereof could be or shall have been filed under the Act; (ii) approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale; and (iii) restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such
purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In addition to a private sale as provided above in this Section 7(b), if any of such Collateral
shall not be freely distributable to the public without registration under the Act at the time of any proposed sale hereunder, then the Administrative Agent shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected but may,
in its sole discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), require that any sale hereunder (including a sale at auction) be conducted subject to such restrictions as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, deem

  

 -18- 








 necessary or appropriate in order that such sale (notwithstanding any failure so to register) may be effected in
compliance with the Bankruptcy Code and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the Act and all applicable state securities laws. 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, (i) 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 terminate upon the earlier of the payment in full of the Secured Obligations or the cure or waiver of the Event of Default. Each Grantor hereby expressly authorizes
and instructs 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 (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Security Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise
expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Collateral directly to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (c) Each Grantor agrees that in any sale of any of such Collateral, whether at a foreclosure sale or otherwise, the Administrative Agent is hereby
authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number
of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their
own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental authority, and each Grantor further agrees that such
compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Administrative Agent be liable nor accountable to any Grantor for any discount allowed by the reason of the
fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction. 
  
 (d) Each Grantor also agrees to pay all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred in connection with the
enforcement of any of its rights and remedies hereunder. 
  

 -19- 








 (e) Each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent
not prohibited by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral. 
  
 (f) Each Grantor agrees that a breach of any covenants contained in this Section 7 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative
Agent, that in such event the Administrative Agent would have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees that in such event each and every covenant contained in this Section 7 shall be specifically
enforceable against the Grantors, and each Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that the Secured Obligations are not then due and payable.

  
 (g) The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent in the following order of priorities: 
  
 First, to the Administrative Agent in an amount sufficient to pay in full the costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in
connection with such sale, disposition or other realization, including all fees, costs, expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and
costs; 
  
 Second, to the Lenders in an
amount equal to accrued interest then due and payable under this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 
  
 Third, pari passu and ratably, to (i) the Lenders in an amount equal to the principal amount of the outstanding Advances
and to cash collateralize the remaining Obligations in connection with Letters of Credit on a pro rata basis in accordance with the then outstanding principal amount of the Advances and Obligations in connection with Letters of Credit (with the
portion allocated to the Advances, Swing Line Loans and Obligations in connection with Letters of Credit to be applied first to repay the Swing Line Loans in full, second to repay the remaining Advances in full and then to cash collateralize the
Secured Obligations in an amount equal to the then Aggregate Effective Amount of all Obligations in connection with Letters of Credit) and (ii) to the Lender(s) (as that Term is defined in the Credit Agreement) or their Affiliates to whom
obligations are owed in connection with any Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreements to the extent of the associated Termination Value of such Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement, and such proceeds will not be applied to the extent of any
excess obligations in connection with any Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement, until the Secured Obligations (other than obligations under this clause (ii)) have been paid in full and the Commitments have been terminated; 
  

 -20- 








 Fourth, to the Lenders (as that term is defined in the Credit Agreement) in an
amount equal to any other Secured Obligations (including obligations of the Company under Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreements) which are then unpaid; and 
  
 Finally, upon payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations, to the Persons legally entitled
thereto. 
  
 (h) The Administrative Agent agrees (i) not
give any instructions pursuant to a Control Agreement regarding the withdrawal or other disposition of any funds or investment property in an account that is subject to such Control Agreement unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and (ii) to rescind or revoke any such instructions within a reasonable time after the cure or waiver of such Event of Default so long as no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time. 
  
 SECTION 8. Limitation on the Administrative Agent’s Duty in
Respect of Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and disposition of any of the Collateral if it complies with the obligations of a secured party under Section 9207 of the
UCC (or any other then applicable successor provision of the UCC). 
  
 SECTION 9. Reinstatement. If this Security Agreement terminates pursuant to its terms or applicable law and if at any time thereafter payment or performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant
to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy, reorganization, a “voidable preference,” a
“fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, then this Security Agreement shall be reinstated and be in full force and effect all as though such payment or performance had not been made and each Grantor agrees that it will indemnify the
Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission, restoration or return. In the event that any
payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
  
 SECTION 10. Miscellaneous. 
  
 10.1 Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all
notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications to or upon the Grantors (care of the Company) or the Administrative Agent under this Security Agreement shall be given as provided in Section 11.6 of the Credit
Agreement. 
 10.2 Partial Invalidity. If at any time any provision of this Security Agreement is or becomes illegal,
invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under
the law of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
  

 -21-

Agreement are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Security Agreement. 
  
 10.4 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
  

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies
hereunder or under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or thereunder on any one or more occasions preclude the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents. 
  
 (b)
The rights and remedies hereunder provided or provided under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law or by any

provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by each Grantor and the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise specified in any such waiver or consent, a waiver or

Agreement.
