office specified in Schedule 7 to the Perfection Certificate (other than such Pledged Collateral in which a
security interest cannot be perfected under the UCC as in effect on the Closing Date). Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such Pledgor will maintain the security
interest created by this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a perfected first priority security interest subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens and Section 11.15  hereof. 



        SECTION 3.4.    Other Actions.    In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and

withdrawal rights from such Pledgor with respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

each such Securities Account and Commodity Account, which security interest is perfected by Control, except to the extent that obtaining such Control may be completed after the Closing Date pursuant
to the terms of Section 4.19 of the Indenture. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity
Intermediary unless (1) it shall have given the Collateral Agent thirty (30) days' prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account
with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and
(3) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities
Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be; provided, that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to waive (or extend) the requirement of a Control Agreement for any account in its reasonable
discretion. Each Pledgor shall accept any cash and Investment Property in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and within three (3) Business Days of actual receipt thereof, deposit any
and all cash and Investment Property (other than any Investment Property pledged pursuant to clauses (ii)(1), (iii)(1) or (iii)(3) below) received by it into a Deposit Account or Securities
Account subject to the Collateral Agent's Control. The Collateral Agent agrees with each Pledgor that such Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any
issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and 



11







 




shall
not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such
investment and withdrawal rights, would occur. The provisions of this Section 3.4(c) shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a
Securities Account for which the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any person other than the Collateral
Agent. 


        (ii)   If
any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Investment Property, such Pledgor shall promptly (1) endorse, assign
and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as are necessary to perfect the security interest in such securities or
(2) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with respect to which a Securities Account Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the Collateral Agent. 


        (iii)  If
any Pledgor shall at any time own or acquire, directly or through a nominee, any uncertificated securities constituting Investment Property, such Pledgor shall
promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and pursuant to an agreement in form and substance sufficient to perfect the security interest in such uncertificated securities, either (1) cause
the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or such nominee,
(2) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such uncertificated security to be held in a Securities Account with respect to which the Collateral Agent has Control or (3) arrange for
the Collateral Agent to become the registered owners of such securities.

between the Collateral Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the
risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a Security Entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the
Control of, the Collateral Agent, a Securities Intermediary, a Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person. 



        (d)    Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.    As of the date hereof, no amount under or in connection
with any of the Pledged Collateral is evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any "transferable record" (as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in
Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction) other than such Electronic Chattel Paper and
transferable records listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged
Collateral shall be evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the
Collateral Agent thereof and shall take such action as necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent control of such Electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC or control
under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect
in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by Electronic
Chattel Paper or any transferable record in which the Collateral Agent has not been vested control within the meaning of the statutes described in the immediately preceding sentence, does not exceed
$500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Pledgor that, so long as such procedures will not result in the Collateral Agent's loss of control, the Pledgor may
make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing 



12







 




or
would occur after taking into account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record. 


        (e)    Letter-of-Credit Rights.    If any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a Letter
of Credit now or hereafter issued, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, pursuant
to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, either (i) use reasonable commercial efforts to arrange for the issuer and any confirmer
of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) use reasonable commercial efforts to arrange for
the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Collateral
Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in the Indenture. The actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to
the extent that the amount of any such Letter of Credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other Letters of Credit for which the actions described above in clause (i) and (ii) have not
been taken, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 



        (f)    Commercial Tort Claims.    As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no
Commercial Tort Claims other than those listed in Schedule 13 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a
Commercial Tort Claim, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in writing a security
interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent. The
requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort Claim, together with the amount of all other Commercial Tort Claims held by any Pledgor in
which the Collateral Agent do not have a security interest, does not exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 


        (g)    Motor Vehicles.    Each Pledgor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent originals of the certificates of title or
ownership for the motor vehicles (and any other Equipment covered by certificates of title or ownership) owned by it, with such Collateral Agent listed as lienholder therein. Such requirement shall

or (ii) the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent has requested delivery of such originals of the certificates of tile or ownership for the motor vehicles to it. 


        (h)    Credit Card Receivables.    Pledgors will deliver to the Collateral Agent an executed Credit Card Processing
Control Agreement with respect to all Credit Card Receivables. No Pledgor shall hereafter enter into any Credit Card Agreement unless (1) it shall have given the Collateral Agent thirty
(30) days' prior written notice of its intention to enter into any new Credit Card Agreement and (2) such Pledgor and credit card issuer or credit card processor shall have duly executed

an armored car carrier

expense of the Pledgors.

Pledged Collateral. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times
constitute a perfected, continuing security interest therein, prior to all other Liens on the Pledged Collateral except for Permitted Liens and subject to  Section 11.15 hereof. 



        SECTION 4.3.    Defense of Claims; Transferability of Pledged Collateral.    Each Pledgor shall, at its own
cost and expense, defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof against all
material claims and demands of all persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than Permitted
Liens. There is no agreement, order, judgment or decree, and no Pledgor shall enter into any agreement or take any other action, that would materially restrict the transferability of any of the
Pledged Collateral or otherwise impair or conflict with such Pledgor's obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder other than such permits, licenses or agreements in the ordinary
course of business. 


        SECTION 4.4.    Other Financing Statements.    It has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file (nor
will there be), any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any
interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral, except such as have been filed in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien with respect to
such Permitted Collateral Lien or financing statements or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 9 to the
Perfection Certificate. No Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under
the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests
granted by such Pledgor to the holder of the Permitted Liens. 


        SECTION 4.5.    Chief Executive Office; Change of Name; Jurisdiction of Organization.    Such Pledgor will not,
except after not less than 30 days' prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, (i) change its jurisdiction of organization or its organizational identification number,
(ii) change the 


15







 



location
of its chief execution office, (iii) take any action to become a "registered organization" (as used in Section 9-307 of the UCC) in any different jurisdiction or
(iv) change its name. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgor's property constituting
Pledged Collateral. 


        SECTION 4.6.    Location of Inventory and Equipment.    It shall not move any Equipment or Inventory to an
ultimate location that is not listed in the relevant Schedules to the Perfection Certificate, unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than 10 days' prior written notice of its
intention so to do, clearly describing such new location and providing monthly rent expense, if applicable, and such other information in connection therewith as the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent
may reasonably request; provided that in no event shall any Equipment or Inventory be moved to any location outside of the continental United States or Canada. 



        SECTION 4.7.    Due Authorization and Issuance.    All of the Pledged Securities existing on the date hereof
have been, and to the extent any Pledged Securities are hereafter issued, such Pledged Securities will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and
non-assessable. There is no amount or other obligation owing by any Pledgor to any issuer of the Pledged Securities in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Pledged
Securities or any Pledgor's status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the Pledged Securities. 


        SECTION 4.8.    Consents, etc.    In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies,
voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority
or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of such Collateral Agent, such Pledgor agrees to use its best efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as
practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers. 


        SECTION 4.9.    Pledged Collateral.    All information set forth herein, including the schedules hereto, and
all information contained in any documents, schedules and lists heretofore delivered to any Secured Party, including the Perfection Certificate and the schedules thereto, in connection with this
Agreement, in each case, relating to the Pledged Collateral, is accurate and complete in all material respects. The Pledged Collateral described on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate
constitutes all of the property of such type of Pledged Collateral owned or held by the Pledgors. 


        SECTION 4.10.    Insurance.    In the event that the proceeds of any insurance claim are paid to any Pledgor
after the Collateral Agent has exercised its right to foreclose after an Event of Default, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and promptly after
receipt thereof shall be paid to the Collateral Agent for application in accordance with the Indenture. 


ARTICLE V  


 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING SECURITIES COLLATERAL  


        SECTION 5.1.    Pledge of Additional Securities Collateral.    Each Pledgor shall, upon obtaining any Pledged
Securities or Intercompany Notes of any person, accept the same in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and promptly (but in any event within five Business Days after receipt thereof) deliver

"Pledge Amendment"), and deliver to the Collateral Agent the certificates and other documents required under  Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 hereof in respect of the additional Pledged Securities or
Intercompany Notes which are to be pledged pursuant to this Agreement, and confirming the attachment of the Lien hereby created on and in respect of such additional Pledged Securities or Intercompany

16







 

listed
on any Pledge Amendment delivered to the Collateral Agent shall for all purposes hereunder be considered Pledged Collateral. 


        SECTION 5.2.    Voting Rights; Distributions; etc.    



        (a)   So
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: 



          (i)  Each
Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof;  provided, however, that no Pledgor shall in any event exercise such rights in any manner which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 


         (ii)  Each
Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain, and to utilize free and clear of the Lien hereof, any and all Distributions, but only if and to the extent made in
accordance with the provisions of the Indenture; provided, however, that any and all such Distributions

trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Pledgor and be promptly (but in any event within five Business Days after receipt thereof)
delivered to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). 




        (b)   So
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed without further action or formality to have granted to each
Pledgor all necessary consents relating to voting rights and shall, if necessary, upon written request of any Pledgor and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, from time to time execute and
deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to such Pledgor all such instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request in order to permit such Pledgor to exercise the voting and other rights
which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) hereof and to receive the Distributions which it is authorized to receive and
retain pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii) hereof. 


        (c)   Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default: 



          (i)  All
rights of each Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to  Section 5.2(a)(i) hereof shall immediately cease, and all such
rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall
thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights. 


         (ii)  All
rights of each Pledgor to receive Distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to  Section 5.2(a)(ii) hereof shall immediately cease and all such rights shall
thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall
thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such Distributions. 




        (d)   Each
Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent appropriate instruments as the Revolving Credit
Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to permit the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to  Section 5.2(c)(i) hereof and
to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive under  Section 5.2(c)(ii) hereof. 



        (e)   All
Distributions which are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of Section 5.2(c)(ii) hereof shall
be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Pledgor and shall immediately be paid over to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in
the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). 




        SECTION 5.3.    Defaults, etc.    Such Pledgor is not in default in the payment of any material portion of any
mandatory capital contribution, if any, required to be made under any agreement to 


17







 

which
such Pledgor is a party relating to the Pledged Securities pledged by it, and such Pledgor is not in violation of any other material provisions of any such agreement to which such Pledgor is a
party, or otherwise in default or violation thereunder. No Securities Collateral pledged by such Pledgor is subject to any defense, offset or counterclaim, nor have any of the foregoing been asserted
or alleged against such Pledgor by any person with respect thereto, and as of the date hereof, there are no certificates, instruments, documents or other writings (other than the Organizational
Documents and certificates representing such Pledged Securities that have been delivered to the Collateral Agent) which evidence any Pledged Securities of such Pledgor. 


        SECTION 5.4.    Certain Agreements of Pledgors As Issuers and Holders of Equity Interests.    



        (a)   In
the case of each Pledgor which is an issuer of Securities Collateral, such Pledgor agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Securities
Collateral issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it. 


        (b)   In
the case of each Pledgor which is a partner, shareholder or member, as the case may be, in a partnership, limited liability company or other entity, such Pledgor
hereby consents to the extent required by the applicable Organizational Document to the pledge by each other Pledgor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the Pledged Securities in such partnership,
limited liability company or other entity and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the transfer of such Pledged Securities to the Collateral Agent or its nominee
and to the substitution of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner, shareholder or member in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity with all the rights,
powers and duties of a general partner, limited partner, shareholder or member, as the case may be. 



ARTICLE VI  


 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL

PROPERTY COLLATERAL  


        SECTION 6.1.    Grant of Intellectual Property License.    For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article IX hereof at such time as
the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an
irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty free, worldwide license or (for third party rights) sublicenses to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned, held
or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located. Such license or sublicense shall include access to all media in which any of the applicable items may be recorded or stored and
to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. The Collateral Agent agrees to maintain, during the period such license or sublicense is in effect, the quality of all products
and services marketed under the Trademarks at a level that the Collateral Agent in good faith believes is in all material respects equal to that maintained by each Pledgor immediately prior to the
Event of Default. 


        SECTION 6.2.    Protection of Collateral Agent's Security.    On a continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its
sole cost and expense, (i) promptly notify the Collateral Agent if it knows or has reason to know that any application or registration for any Material Intellectual Property may become
forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination in any proceeding or the institution of any proceeding in any federal, state, foreign or local court or administrative
body (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or any foreign counterparts thereof) regarding any Material Intellectual Property, such Pledgor's
right to register such Material Intellectual Property or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect, (ii) maintain all Material Intellectual Property as presently
used and operated, except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (iii) continue to use each 


18







 



material
Trademark so as to maintain it in full force in each class of goods, except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (iv) maintain, consistent with
commercially reasonable business judgment, the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark at or above the quality of products and services offered under such Trademarks as of the
date hereof, (v) not adopt or use any mark which is confusingly similar to such Trademark unless the Collateral Agent shall obtain a perfected security interest in such mark pursuant to this
Agreement, (vi) use all Intellectual Property with applicable notices and legends, (vii) not permit to lapse or become invalidated or abandoned any Material Intellectual Property, and
not settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to any such Material Intellectual Property, in either case except as shall be consistent with
commercially reasonable business judgment, (viii) maintain, apply and prosecute each registration of the Material Intellectual Property, except as shall be consistent with commercially
reasonable business judgment, (ix) upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and
adversely affect the value or utility of any Material Intellectual Property or the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent in relation thereto including a levy or threat of levy or any legal
process against any Material Intellectual Property (x) not license any Intellectual Property, other than licenses entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of
business or consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to receive
payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of any Intellectual Property or the Lien on and security interest in the Intellectual Property created therein hereby,
(xi) diligently keep adequate records respecting all Intellectual Property and (xii) furnish within five (5) Business Days after the end of each fiscal quarter to the Collateral
Agent therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any
Intellectual Property as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request. 


        SECTION 6.3.    After-Acquired Property.    If any Pledgor either by itself or through any agent, employee,
licensee or designee, shall at any time after the date hereof (i) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property or (ii) file or otherwise become entitled to the benefit of
any additional Intellectual Property or any renewal, registration, application or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of
any Intellectual Property, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property, the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in the preceding clause (i) or
(ii) shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property as if such would have constituted Intellectual Property at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest
created by this Agreement without further action by any party. Each Pledgor shall within five (5) Business Days after the last day of any fiscal quarter in which such
Pledgor has obtained or filed such rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) above provide to the Collateral Agent written notice of any of the foregoing and confirm the attachment of the Lien
and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) above by execution of an instrument in form substantially in the form of Exhibit 6, 7 or 8
hereof and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to create, preserve, protect or perfect the Collateral Agent's security interest in such Intellectual Property.
Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedules 12(a) and  12(b) to the Perfection Certificate to
include any Intellectual Property of such Pledgor acquired or arising after the date hereof. 



        SECTION 6.4.    Litigation.    Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor
shall take all reasonable and necessary steps to commence and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such
applications for protection of the Material Intellectual Property and suits, proceedings or other actions to prevent the material infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution
in value or 


19







 



other
damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual Property. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no
way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property and/or bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce the Intellectual
Property and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents requested by the Collateral Agent in aid of such
enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent for all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights under this  Section 6.4 in accordance with Sections 6.11 and 7.07 of the Indenture. In the event that
the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce the Intellectual Property, each Pledgor agrees to take all commercially reasonable actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other
action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual Property by any person. 


ARTICLE VII  


 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING RECEIVABLES  


        SECTION 7.1.    Maintenance of Records.    Each Pledgor shall keep and maintain at its own cost and expense
complete records of each Receivable, in a manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all
other documentation relating thereto. Each Pledgor shall, at such Pledgor's sole cost and expense, upon the Collateral Agent's demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance
of any
Event of Default, deliver all tangible evidence of Receivables, including all documents evidencing Receivables and any books and records relating thereto to such Collateral Agent or to its
representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Pledgor). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may
transfer a full and complete copy of any Pledgor's books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda and all other writings relating to the Receivables to and for the use by any person that has
acquired or is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Receivables or the Collateral Agent's security interest therein without the consent of any Pledgor; provided, that such person and its
representative shall be obligated to keep any information or knowledge obtained in connection with their review of such books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda or other writings related
to the Receivables confidential. 


        SECTION 7.2.    Legend.    Each Pledgor shall legend, at the reasonable request of the Revolving Credit
Collateral Agent and in form and manner satisfactory to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, the Receivables and the other books, records and documents of such Pledgor evidencing or pertaining to
the Receivables with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Receivables have been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Collateral Agent have a
security interest therein. 


        SECTION 7.3.    Modification of Terms, etc.    No Pledgor shall rescind or cancel any obligations evidenced by
any material Receivable or modify any term thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice, or extend or renew
any such material obligations except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice or compromise or settle any material dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating
thereto or sell any Receivable or interest therein except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice without the prior written consent of the Revolving Credit
Collateral Agent. Each Pledgor shall timely fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with the Receivables. 


        SECTION 7.4.    Collection.    Each Pledgor shall cause to be collected from the Account Debtor of each of the
Receivables, as and when due in the ordinary course of business and consistent with 


20







 



prudent
business practice (including Receivables that are delinquent, such Receivables to be collected in accordance with generally accepted commercial collection procedures), any and all amounts
owing under or on account of such Receivable, and apply promptly upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such Receivable, except that any Pledgor may,
with respect to a Receivable, allow in the ordinary course of business (i) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged or defective merchandise and (ii) such extensions of
time to pay amounts due in respect of Receivables and such other modifications of payment terms or settlements in respect of Receivables as shall be commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all
in accordance with such Pledgor's ordinary course of business consistent with its collection practices as in effect from time to time. The costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of collection,
in any case, whether incurred by any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, shall be paid by the Pledgors.

        SECTION 8.1.    Transfers of Pledged Collateral.    No Pledgor shall sell, convey, assign or otherwise dispose

ARTICLE IX  


 REMEDIES  


        SECTION 9.1.    Remedies.    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent may from time to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to them, the following
remedies: 



          (i)  Personally,
or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other person who then has
possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose and/or for the purposes of completing the manufacture and packaging of the Pledged Collateral or sale or
other disposition of the Pledged Collateral may enter upon any Pledgor's premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged Collateral, complete the manufacture and packaging
of the Pledged Collateral and/or sell or otherwise dispose of the Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged
Collateral and for other purposes set forth in this clause (i) and use in connection with such removal, possession, completion of manufacturing and packaging, sale or other disposition, any and
all services, supplies, equipment, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor; 


         (ii)  Demand,
sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or
obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment
required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment
and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such
payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the
Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent; 



        (iii)  Sell,
assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all
investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 



21









  



        (iv)  Take
possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so
designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and
therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral
Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain
them in good condition. Each Pledgor's obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 9.1(iv) is of the essence
hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 


         (v)  Withdraw
all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged
Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 


        (vi)  Retain
and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 


       (vii)  Exercise
any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual
and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and 


      (viii)  Exercise
all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as
specified in Section 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at
public or private sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such
other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or
recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion
of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely
free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may
at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to
make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by
announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or
licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if one of the Collateral Agent accept the first offer received and does not offer such
Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. 




        SECTION 9.2.    Notice of Sale.    Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or
other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, ten 


22







 

(10) days'
prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially
reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to
notification of sale or other intended disposition. 


        SECTION 9.3.    Waiver of Notice and Claims.    Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with either of the Collateral Agent's taking possession or either of the Collateral Agent's disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part
thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession other than those caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Collateral Agent or its representatives as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and
terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent's rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or
moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this  Article IX in the absence of
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent as determined by a final,
non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest
all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and
against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor. 


        SECTION 9.4.    Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral.    



        (a)   Each
Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Collateral Agent may be
compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that
any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances,
agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall have no
obligation to engage in public sales. 


        (b)   Each
Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be
compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such
Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may
be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration
statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the
Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit
the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. 



23







 




        (c)   Notwithstanding
the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Revolving
Credit Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect
to all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so
requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate
qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish
to the Collateral Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may reasonably request, and shall indemnify and
shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral Agent and all others participating in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages
and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any
omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not
misleading other than any claims, losses, damages and liabilities arising from or by virtue of the gross negligence or willful misconduct or misrepresentation of the Collateral Agent or its
representative as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. 


        (d)   If
the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable
Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number of securities included in the Securities
Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the
same are from time to time in effect. 


        (e)   Each
Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will cause
irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor
hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 




        SECTION 9.5.    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.    



        (a)   No
failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any
right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or
guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available. 



24







 

        (b)   In
the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then
and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged
Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 




        SECTION 9.6.    Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property.    If any Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the Intellectual
Property and such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Collateral
Agent, each Pledgor shall make available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor's power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor's employ on the date of the Event of Default
as the Collateral Agent may reasonably designate to permit such Pledgor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under the
Intellectual Property, and such persons shall be available to perform their prior functions on the Collateral Agent's behalf. 


        SECTION 9.7.    Access to Premises.    Each Pledgor will permit Collateral Agent or its designee to visit and
inspect the financial records and the property of such Pledgor at reasonable times during regular business hours as often as reasonably requested and at any time upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, make extracts from and copies of such financial records, and to discuss the affairs, finances, accounts and condition of any Pledgor with the officers and
employees thereof and advisors therefor (including independent accountants). 


ARTICLE X  


 PROCEEDS OF CASUALTY EVENTS AND COLLATERAL DISPOSITIONS; APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS  


        SECTION 10.1.    Application of Proceeds.    The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any
sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other
sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Indenture. 


ARTICLE XI  


 MISCELLANEOUS  


        SECTION 11.1.    Concerning Collateral Agent.    



        (a)   The
Collateral Agent has been appointed as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture. The actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the
Indenture. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including
the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Indenture. The Collateral Agent may employ in good faith agents and
attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it
with due care. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Indenture. Upon the acceptance of any 



25







 

appointment
as Collateral Agent by successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral
Agent's resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was a Collateral Agent. 


        (b)   The
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged
Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it
being understood that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges,
maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or
(ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral. 


        (c)   The
Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected
by it. 


        (d)   If
any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or
instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in
respect of such collateral, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 


        (e)   In
the case of any provision of this Agreement which contemplates the granting of consent or exercise of discretion by the Collateral Agent (other than the provisions of
Article 9 hereunder) with respect to any category of Pledged Collateral which constitutes Revolving Credit Collateral, if pursuant to a comparable provision of the Revolving Credit Loan
Documents the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent grants a consent or exercises its discretion, the Collateral Agent shall automatically be deemed to have granted the same consent or exercised its
discretion in the same manner hereunder upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of written notice from the Pledgors that the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent has granted such consent or exercised such
discretion. 



26









  



        (f)    Anything
herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Pledgors shall remain liable under each of the agreements to which they are a party to perform all of
their duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, and the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation or liability under any such agreements to
perform any of the obligations or duties of the Pledgors thereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the right of the Collateral Agent to perform any discretionary act
enumerated herein (including the right to consent to or approve of any action or document) shall not be construed as giving rise to any expressed or implied duty. Beyond the exercise of reasonable
care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income
thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements
or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Pledged Collateral. The
Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Pledged Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the liens in any of
the Pledged Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent. Nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of the Pledged Collateral, for the
validity of the title of the Pledgors to the Pledged Collateral, for insuring the Pledged Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Pledged Collateral or otherwise
as to the maintenance of the Pledged Collateral. In acting under and by virtue of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights, protections and immunities granted to it under the
Indenture, all of which are incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis. 




        SECTION 11.2.    Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed
Attorney-in-Fact.    



        (a)   If
any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor's covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all
required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay and discharge any taxes, assessments and special assessments, levies, fees and governmental charges imposed upon or assessed against, and
landlords', carriers', mechanics', workmen's, repairmen's, laborers', materialmen's, suppliers' and warehousemen's Liens and other claims arising by operation of law against, all or any portion of the
Pledged Collateral, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or
warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may
expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound
to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in
accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of  Section 7.07 of
the Indenture. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action
taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in
this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorneys-in-fact, with
full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent's discretion to take any action and to execute
any instrument consistent with the terms of the Indenture, this Agreement and the other Security Documents which such Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof
(but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third 



27







 

party
for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor
hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 


        (b)   Without
limiting the foregoing, each Pledgor hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all persons designated by the Collateral Agent) as such
Pledgor's true and lawful attorney-in-fact, and authorizes Collateral Agent, in such Pledgor's or Collateral Agent's name, to:(i) at any time an Event of Default exists
or has occurred and is continuing (1) demand payment on Accounts or other Pledged Collateral, (2) enforce payment of Accounts by legal proceedings or otherwise, (3) exercise all
of such Pledgor's rights and remedies to collect any Account or other Pledged Collateral, (4) sell or assign any Account upon such terms, for such amount and at such time or times as the
Collateral Agent deems advisable, (5) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew an Account, (6) discharge and release any Account, (7) prepare, file and sign such Pledgor's name
on any proof of claim in bankruptcy or other similar document against an account debtor or other obligor in respect of any Accounts or other Pledged Collateral, (8) notify the post office
authorities to change the address for delivery of remittances from account debtors or other obligors in respect of Accounts or other proceeds of Pledged Collateral to an address designated by
Collateral Agent, and open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Pledgor and handle and store all mail relating to the Pledged Collateral; (9) do all acts and things which are necessary, in
Collateral Agent's determination, to fulfill such Pledgor's obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Mortgages or any other document made, delivered or given
in connection with any of the foregoing, (10) endorse such Pledgor's name upon any chattel paper, document, instrument, invoice, or similar document or agreement relating to any Account or any
goods pertaining thereto or any other
Pledged Collateral, including any warehouse or other receipts, or bills of lading and other negotiable or non-negotiable documents, (11) clear Inventory the purchase of which was
financed with a Letter of Credit through U.S. Customs or foreign export control authorities in such Pledgor's, Collateral Agent's name or the name of Collateral Agent's designee, and to sign and
deliver to customs officials powers of attorney in such Pledgor's name for such purpose, and to complete in such Pledgor's or Collateral Agent's name, any order, sale or transaction, obtain the
necessary documents in connection therewith and collect the proceeds thereof, and (12) sign such Pledgor's name on any verification of Accounts and notices thereof to account debtors or any
secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof and (ii) at any time after delivery of a Notice of Sole Control (as defined in the form Deposit Account Control Agreement attached hereto
as Exhibit 5) or a similar notice to (1) take control in any manner of any item of payment in respect of Accounts or constituting Pledged
Collateral or otherwise received in or for deposit in the Concentration Account or otherwise received by Collateral Agent, (2) have access to any lockbox or postal box into which remittances
from account debtors or other obligors in respect of Accounts or other proceeds of Pledged Collateral are sent or received, (3) endorse such Pledgor's name upon any items of payment in respect
of Accounts or constituting Pledged Collateral or otherwise received by Collateral Agent and deposit the same in Collateral Agent's account for application to the Secured Obligations. Each Pledgor
hereby releases Collateral Agent and its officers, employees and designees from any liabilities arising from any act or acts under this power of attorney and in furtherance thereof, whether of
omission or commission, except as a result of Collateral Agent's own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent
jurisdiction. 




        SECTION 11.3.    Continuing Security Interest; Assignment.    This Agreement shall create a continuing security
interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the
Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other
creditor of 


28







 

any
Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise
transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured
Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Indenture. 


        SECTION 11.4.    Termination; Release.    (a) When all the Secured Obligations have been paid in full,
this Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of Pledged Collateral or
any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to
Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent, such of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in
possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, any proper documents and
instruments (including UCC-3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be, which the
Pledgors may reasonably request. 


        (b)   The
Collateral Agent will release the liens on any part of the Collateral to the extent required by Section 5.1 of the Intercreditor Agreement. 



        SECTION 11.5.    Modification in Writing.    No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of
or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and unless in writing
and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the
terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. In signing any such amendment or modification to this
Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon an opinion of counsel that such amendment or modification is authorized or permitted by this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and
the Indenture. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle
any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 


        SECTION 11.6.    Notices.    Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Indenture, any notice or other
communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Indenture, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Issuer
set forth in the Indenture and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Indenture, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a
written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.6. 


        SECTION 11.7.    Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.    


        (a)    Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of
New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. 


        (b)    Submission to Jurisdiction.    Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and
any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent 


29







 



permitted
by applicable law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Collateral Agent, the Trustee or any Holder may otherwise have
to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other document against any Pledgor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 


        (c)    Waiver of Venue.    Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable Requirements of Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court
referred to in Section 11.7(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements
of Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 



        (d)    Service of Process.    Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in any action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, in the manner provided for notices (other than telecopier) in Section 11.6. Nothing in this
Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law. 


        (e)    Trial by Jury.    Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of
Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated
hereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other theory). Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or
otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter
into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section. 


        SECTION 11.8.    Severability of Provisions.    Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting
the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 


        SECTION 11.9.    Execution in Counterparts.    This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or
supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 



        SECTION 11.10.    Business Days.    In the event any time period or any date provided in this Agreement ends or
falls on a day other than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on
such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such other day. 


        SECTION 11.11.    No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition.    Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any
credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Indenture, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the
terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof. 


        SECTION 11.12.    No Claims Against Collateral Agent.    Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute
any consent or request by the Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other
property in 


30







 



such
fashion as would permit the making of any claim against either of the Collateral Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the
furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. 



        SECTION 11.13.    No Release.    Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other document, nor the exercise by
the Collateral Agent of any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor's part to be performed or
observed under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on either of the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor's part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on
either of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such
Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Indenture or any other documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Pledged Collateral
by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to
collect or enforce any such contract, agreement or other document included in the Pledged
Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of
such Pledgor's other obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture and the other Loan Documents. 


        SECTION 11.14.    Obligations Absolute.    All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of: 



          (i)  any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any other Pledgor; 


         (ii)  any
lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 


        (iii)  any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any
consent to any departure from the Indenture or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 



        (iv)  any
pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any
guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations; 


         (v)  any
exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Indenture or any other document except as
specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.5 hereof; or 


        (vi)  any
other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor. 




        SECTION 11.15.    Intercreditor Agreement.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and
security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of February 14, 2006 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Intercreditor
Agreement"), among Linens 'n Things, Inc., Linens Holding Co., Linens 'n Things Center, Inc., Linens 'n Things Canada Corp, UBS AG, Stamford

Ladies
and Gentlemen: 


        Reference
is made to the Security Agreement (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Security
Agreement;" capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement), dated as of
[                        ], made by LINENS 'N THINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation and LINENS 'N THINGS CENTER,
 INC., a California corporation (the
"Issuers"), the Guarantors party thereto and THE BANK OF NEW YORK, as Collateral Agent (in such capacity and together with any successors in such
capacity, the "Collateral Agent"). 


        This
Joinder Agreement supplements the Security Agreement and is delivered by the undersigned, [                        ] (the
"New
Pledgor"), pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor hereby agrees to be bound as a Guarantor
and as a Pledgor party to the Security Agreement by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Security Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a
signatory to the Security Agreement on the date of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor also hereby agrees to be bound as a party by all of the terms, covenants and conditions applicable to it set
forth in the Indenture to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Indenture on the execution date of the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the New Pledgor hereby grants and pledges to the Collateral Agent, as collateral security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Pledged Collateral and expressly assumes all
obligations and liabilities of a Guarantor and Pledgor thereunder. The New Pledgor hereby makes each of the representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to the
Pledgors contained in the Security Agreement and the Indenture. 


        Concurrent
with the execution of this Agreement, the New Pledgor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a Perfection Certificate. Such Perfection Certificate shall supplement the
disclosures contained in the Security Agreement and shall be deemed to be part of the Security Agreement or the Indenture, as applicable. 


        This
Joinder Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 


        THIS
JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 










        Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the
Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of February 14, 2006 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the "Intercreditor Agreement"), among Linens 'n Things, Inc., Linens Holding Co., Linens 'n Things Center, Inc.,

of New York, serving as "Note Lien Collateral Agent" and certain other persons which may be or become parties thereto or become bound thereto from time to time. In the event of any conflict between
the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. In acting under and by virtue of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent
shall have all of the rights, protections and immunities granted to it under the Security Agreement, all of which are incorporated by reference herein, mutatis
mutandis. 


        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Pledgor has caused this Joinder Agreement to be executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the date first above written.

 CONTROL AGREEMENT CONCERNING SECURITIES ACCOUNTS  


        This Control Agreement Concerning Securities Accounts (this "Control Agreement"), dated as of
[                        ], by and among
[                        ] (the "Pledgor"), UBS AG, Stamford Branch as Collateral
Agent ("UBS"), and [            ] (the "Securities Intermediary"), is delivered pursuant to  Section 3.4(c)
 of that certain security agreement (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Security Agreement"), dated as of [                        ], made by the Pledgor
and each of the Guarantors listed on the signature
pages thereto in favor of UBS AG, Stamford Branch and Wachovia Bank, National Association as Collateral Agents (collectively, the "Collateral Agents"),
as pledgees, assignees and secured parties and that certain [Indenture], dated as of [                        ], made by Pledgor
and each of the Guarantors
referred to therein in favor of The Bank of New York, as Collateral Agent and Indenture Trustee (the "Indenture Trustee") and a secured party. This
Control Agreement is for the purpose of perfecting the security interests of the Collateral Agents and the Indenture Trustee granted by the Pledgor in the Designated Accounts described below. All
references herein to the "UCC" shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement. 


        Section 1.    Confirmation of Establishment and Maintenance of Designated Accounts.    The Securities
Intermediary hereby confirms and agrees that (i) the Securities Intermediary has established for the Pledgor and maintains the account(s) listed in  Schedule I annexed hereto (such account(s),
together with each such other securities account maintained by the Pledgor with the Securities
Intermediary collectively, the "Designated Accounts" and each a "Designated Account"), (ii) each
Designated Account will be maintained in the manner set forth herein until termination of this Control Agreement, (iii) this Control Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of the
Securities Intermediary, (iv) the Securities Intermediary is a "securities intermediary" as defined in Article 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC, (v) each of the Designated
Accounts is a "securities account" as such term is defined in Section 8-501(a) of the UCC and (vi) all securities or other property underlying any financial assets which are
credited to any Designated Account shall be registered in the name of the Securities Intermediary, endorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to another securities account
maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary and in no case will any financial asset credited to any Designated Account be registered in the name of the Pledgor, payable to the order of the
Pledgor or specially endorsed to the Pledgor, except to the extent the foregoing have been specially endorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank. 


        Section 2.    Controlling Party.    As used herein, "Controlling
Party" means UBS or its designee until such time as UBS or its designee has provided Bank with a written notice substantially in the form of  Exhibit A hereto that Collateral
Agents have ceased to be the Controlling Party hereunder (such notice being the
"Controlling Party Notice"), "Controlling Party" means the Indenture Trustee. It is understood and
agreed hereby that Bank shall rely exclusively on a Controlling Party Notice as to the determination of whether the Collateral Agents or the Indenture Trustee is the Controlling Party hereunder and
shall be under no obligation to make any independent investigation thereof. 


        Section 3.    "Financial Assets" Election.    All parties hereto agree that each item of Investment Property
and all other property held in or credited to any Designated Account (the "Account Property") shall be treated as a "financial asset" within the meaning
of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC. 


        Section 4.    Entitlement Order.    Upon receipt of a Notice of Sole Control delivered pursuant to  Section 10(i) hereof together with
an "entitlement order" (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) issued by the
Controlling Party and relating to any financial asset maintained in one or more of the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent
by the Pledgor or any other person. Prior to receipt of such Notice of Sole Control and "entitlement order", the Securities Intermediary shall comply with instructions directing 










the
Securities Intermediary with respect to the sale, exchange or transfer of any Account Property held in each Designated Account originated by a Pledgor, or any representative of, or investment
manager appointed by, a Pledgor. The Securities Intermediary shall comply with, and is fully entitled to rely upon, any entitlement order from the Controlling Party, even if such entitlement order is
contrary to any entitlement order that the Pledgor may give or may have given to the Securities Intermediary. 



        Section 5.    Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off.    The Securities Intermediary hereby
agrees that any security interest in, lien on, encumbrance, claim or (except as provided in the next sentence) right of setoff against, any Designated Account or any Account Property it now has or
subsequently obtains shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Controlling Party in the Designated Accounts and the Account Property therein or credited thereto. The Securities Intermediary
agrees not to exercise any present or future right of recoupment or set-off against any of the Designated Accounts or to assert against any of the Designated Accounts any present or future
security interest, banker's lien or any other lien or claim (including claim for penalties) that the Securities Intermediary may at any time have against or in any of the Designated Accounts or any
Account Property therein or credited thereto; provided, however, that the Securities Intermediary may
set off all amounts due to the Securities Intermediary in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Designated Accounts, including overdraft fees and
amounts advanced to settle authorized transactions. 


        Section 6.    Choice of Law.    Both this Control Agreement and the Designated Accounts shall be governed by
the laws of the State of New York. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes
of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the Securities Intermediary's jurisdiction and the Designated Accounts (as well as the security entitlements related thereto) shall be governed by the laws
of the State of New York. 


        Section 7.    Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendments.    As of the date hereof, there are no other
agreements entered into between the Securities Intermediary and the Pledgor with respect to any Designated Account or any security entitlements or other financial assets credited thereto (other than
standard and customary documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of such Designated Accounts). The Securities Intermediary and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement
with respect to any Designated Account unless the Controlling Party shall have received prior written notice thereof. The Securities Intermediary and the Pledgor have not and will not enter into any
other agreement with respect to (i) creation or perfection of any security interest in or (ii) control of security entitlements maintained in any of the Designated Accounts or purporting
to limit or condition the obligation of the Securities Intermediary to comply with entitlement orders with respect to any Account Property held in or credited to any Designated Account as set forth in  Section 4 hereof without the prior written consent of the Controlling Party acting in their sole discretion. In the event of any conflict with
respect to control over any Designated Account between this Control Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Control
Agreement shall prevail. No amendment or modification of this Control Agreement or waiver of any rights hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all the
parties hereto. 


        Section 8.    Certain Agreements.    



          (i)  As
of the date hereof, the Securities Intermediary has furnished to the Controlling Party the most recent account statement issued by the Securities Intermediary with
respect to each of the Designated Accounts and the financial assets and cash balances held therein, identifying the financial assets held therein in a manner acceptable to the Controlling Party. Each
such statement accurately reflects the assets held in such Designated Account as of the date thereof. 


         (ii)  The
Securities Intermediary will, upon its receipt of each supplement to the Security Agreement signed by the Pledgor and identifying one or more financial assets as
"Pledged Collateral," enter into its records, including computer records, with respect to each Designated Account a notation with respect to any such financial asset so that such records and reports
generated with respect thereto identify such financial asset as "Pledged." 













        Section 9.    Notice of Adverse Claims.    Except for the claims and interest of the Collateral Agent, the
Indenture Trustee and of the Pledgor in the Account Property held in or credited to the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, security
interest in, lien on, or encumbrance against, any Designated Account or Account Property held in or credited thereto and does not know of any claim that any person or entity other than the Controlling
Party has been given "control" (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC) of any Designated Account or any such Account Property. If the Securities Intermediary becomes aware
that any person or entity is asserting any lien, encumbrance, security interest or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process or any
claim of control) against any of the Account Property held in or credited to any Designated Account, the Securities Intermediary shall promptly notify the Controlling Party and the Pledgor thereof. 


        Section 10.    Maintenance of Designated Accounts.    In addition to the obligations of the Securities
Intermediary in Section 4 hereof, the Securities Intermediary agrees to maintain the Designated Accounts as follows: 



        (i)    Notice of Sole Control.    If at any time the Controlling Party deliver to the Securities Intermediary a notice
substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto instructing the Securities Intermediary to terminate Pledgor's access to any Designated Account
(the "Notice of Sole Control"), the Securities Intermediary agrees that, after receipt of such notice, it will take all instructions with respect to
such Designated Account solely from the Controlling Party, terminate all instructions and orders originated by the Pledgor with respect to the Designated Accounts or any Account Property therein, and
cease taking instructions from Pledgor, including, without limitation, instructions for investment, distribution or transfer of any financial asset maintained in any Designated Account. Permitting
settlement of trades pending at the time of receipt of such notice shall not constitute a violation of the immediately preceding sentence. 



        (ii)    Voting Rights.    Until such time as the Securities Intermediary receives a Notice of Sole Control, the
Pledgor, or an investment manager on behalf of the Pledgor, shall direct the Securities Intermediary with respect to the voting of any financial assets credited to any Designated Account. 


        (iii)    Statements and Confirmations.    The Securities Intermediary will send copies of all statements and other
correspondence (excluding routine confirmations) concerning any Designated Account or any financial assets credited thereto simultaneously to each of the Pledgor and the Controlling Party at the
address set forth in Section 12 hereof. The Securities Intermediary will provide to the Controlling Party, upon the Controlling Party' request
therefor from time to time and, in any event, as of the last business day of each calendar month, a statement of the market value of each financial asset maintained in each Designated Account. The
Securities Intermediary shall not change the name or account number of any Designated Account without the prior written consent of the Controlling Party. 


        (iv)    Perfection in Certificated Securities.    The Securities Intermediary acknowledges that, in the event that it
should come into possession of any certificate representing any security or other Account Property held in or credited to any of the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary shall retain
possession of the same on behalf and for the benefit of the Controlling Party and such act shall cause the Securities Intermediary to be deemed holding such certificate for the Controlling Party, if
necessary to perfect the Controlling Party' security interest in such securities or assets. The Securities Intermediary hereby acknowledges its receipt of a copy of the Security Agreement, which shall
also serve as notice to the
Securities Intermediary of a security interest in collateral held on behalf and for the benefit of the Controlling Party. 




        Section 11.    Successors; Assignment.    The terms of this Control Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall
inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective corporate successors and permitted assignees. 








        Section 12.    Notices.    Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given under
this Control Agreement shall be in writing and deemed to have been properly given when delivered in person, or when sent by telecopy or other electronic means and electronic confirmation of error free
receipt is received or two (2) days after being sent by certified or registered United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the party at the address set forth
below.

        Section 13.    Termination.    



          (i)  Except
as otherwise provided in this Section 13, the obligations of the Securities Intermediary hereunder and this Control Agreement shall continue in effect
until the security interests of both the Collateral Agents and the Indenture Trustee in the Designated Accounts and any and all Account Property held therein or credited thereto have been terminated
pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement and the Indenture and the Controlling Party has notified the Securities Intermediary of such termination in writing. The Controlling Party agrees
promptly to provide a Notice of Termination substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto to the Securities Intermediary upon the request of the Pledgor on or after the termination of the
Collateral Agents' or Indenture Trustee's security interest, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement or Indenture, as applicable. The termination of this Agreement shall not
terminate the Designated Accounts or alter the obligations of the Securities Intermediary to the Pledgor pursuant to any other agreement with respect to the Designated Accounts. 



         (ii)  The
Securities Intermediary, acting alone, may terminate this Control Agreement at any time and for any reason by written notice delivered to the Controlling Party and
the Pledgor not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective termination date. 


        (iii)  Prior
to any termination of this Control Agreement pursuant to this Section 13, the Securities Intermediary
hereby agrees that it shall promptly take, at Pledgor's sole cost and expense, all reasonable actions necessary to facilitate the transfer of any Account Property in or credited to the Designated
Accounts as follows: (i) in the case of a termination of this Control Agreement under Section 13(i), to the institution designated in

Ladies and Gentlemen: 


        In
connection with that certain Security Agreement, dated as of February     , 2006 (the "Security Agreement"), made by
Linens 'n Things, Inc., a Delaware corporation and Linens 'n Things Center, Inc., a California corporation, the Guarantors party thereto, UBS AG, Stamford Branch as
Collateral Agent ("UBS") and Wachovia Bank, National Association as Collateral Agent (together with UBS, the "Collateral
Agents"), we have granted to the Collateral Agents a security interest in substantially all of our personal property, including our inventory. In connection that certain
Security Agreement, dated as of February     , 2006, made by Linens 'n Things Center, Inc., a California corporation, the Guarantors party thereto, and The Bank of New
York as Collateral Agent and Indenture Trustee (the "Indenture Trustee"), we have granted to the Indenture Trustee a security interest in substantially
all of our personal property, including our inventory. 


        As
used herein, "Controlling Party" means UBS or its designee until such time as UBS or its designee has provided you with a written
notice that Collateral Agents have ceased to be the Controlling Party hereunder (such notice being the "Controlling Party Notice"),
"Controlling Party" means the Indenture Trustee. It is understood and agreed hereby that you shall rely exclusively on a Controlling Party Notice as to
the determination of whether the Collateral Agents or the Indenture Trustee is the Controlling Party hereunder and shall be under no obligation to make any independent investigation thereof. 


        This
letter constitutes notice to you, and your signature below will constitute your acknowledgment, of the Controlling Party's continuing first priority security interest in all goods
with respect to which you are acting as bailee. Until you are notified in writing to the contrary by Controlling Party, however, you may continue to accept instructions from us regarding the delivery
of goods stored by you. 


        Your
acknowledgment also constitutes a waiver and release, for the Collateral Agents' and Indenture Trustee's benefit, of any and all claims, liens, including bailee's liens, and demands
of every kind which you have or may later have against such goods (including any right to include such goods in any secured financing to which you may become party). 


        In
order to complete our records, kindly have a duplicate of this letter signed by an officer of your company and return same to us at your earliest convenience.
