    WHEREAS,
      reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof,
      (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified,
      refinanced or replaced from time to time, the “Credit
      Agreement”)
      among
      Dollar General Corporation, a Tennessee corporation (the “Borrower”),
      the
      lenders or other financial institutions or entities from time to time party
      thereto (the “Lenders”),
      Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P., as Syndication Agent, Lehman Commercial
      Paper Inc. and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Documentation Agents,
      and
      Citicorp North America, Inc., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent;
      

     

    WHEREAS,
      each Guarantor is a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the
      Borrower;

     

    WHEREAS,
      each Guarantor acknowledges that it will derive substantial direct and indirect
      benefit from the making of the Loans; and

     

    WHEREAS,
      it is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make their
      Loans
      to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement that the Guarantors shall have
      executed and delivered this Guarantee to the Collateral Agent for the ratable
      benefit of the Secured Parties;

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Administrative
      Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement
      and to induce the respective Lenders to make their Loans to the Borrower under
      the Credit Agreement and to induce one or more Hedge Banks to enter into Secured
      Hedge Agreements with the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries, the Guarantors
      hereby agree with the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
      Parties, as follows:

     

    1.  Defined
      Terms.

     

    (a)  Unless
      otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein
      shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

     

    (b)  The
      words
“hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this
      Guarantee shall refer to this Guarantee as a whole and not to any particular
      provision of this Guarantee, and Section references are to Sections of this
      Guarantee unless otherwise specified. The words “include”, “includes” and
“including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without
      limitation”.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (c)  The
      meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both
      the
      singular and plural forms of such terms.

     

    2.  Guarantee.

     

    (a)  Subject
      to the provisions of Section 2(b), each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly
      and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees, as primary obligor
      and not merely as surety, to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit
      of
      the Secured Parties, the prompt and complete payment and performance when due
      (whether at the stated maturity, by required prepayment, acceleration, demand
      or
      otherwise) of the Obligations of anyone other than such Guarantor (including
      amounts that would become due but for operation of the automatic stay under
      362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)).

     

    (b)  Anything
      herein or in any other Credit Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the
      maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Credit
      Documents shall in no event exceed the amount that can be guaranteed by such
      Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable laws relating to
      fraudulent conveyances, fraudulent transfers or the insolvency of
      debtors.

     

    (c)  Each
      Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including all reasonable
      fees and disbursements of counsel) that may be paid or incurred by the
      Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in enforcing, or obtaining advice
      of
      counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all
      of
      the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting
      against, such Guarantor under this Guarantee.

     

    (d)  Each
      Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time
      exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing
      this Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent
      or
      any other Secured Party hereunder.

     

    (e)  No
      payment or payments made by the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other
      guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Collateral Agent
      ,
      the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party from the Borrower, any
      of
      the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action
      or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or
      from
      time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed
      to
      modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor
      hereunder, which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments, other
      than
      payments made by such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or payments
      received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations, remain
      liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor
      hereunder until the Obligations under the Credit Documents are paid in full
      and
      the Commitments thereunder are terminated.

     

    (f)  Each
      Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall
      make
      any payment to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party on account of
      its
      li-

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -2-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
ability
        hereunder, it will notify the Collateral Agent in writing that such payment
        is
        made under this Guarantee for such purpose.

    

     

    3.  Right
      of Contribution.
      Each
      Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid
      more
      than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder (including by way
      of
      set-off rights being exercised against it), such Guarantor shall be entitled
      to
      seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder
      who
      has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of
      contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5
      hereof. The provisions of this Section 3 shall in no respect limit the
      obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Collateral Agent and the
      other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Collateral
      Agent and the other Secured Parties up to the maximum liability of such
      Guarantor hereunder.

     

    4.  Right
      of Set-off.
      In
      addition to any rights and remedies of the Secured Parties provided by law,
      each
      Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes each Secured Party at any time and
      from
      time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
      of
      Default, without notice to such Guarantor or any other Guarantor, any such
      notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor, upon any amount becoming due
      and payable by such Guarantor hereunder (whether at stated maturity, by
      acceleration, demand or otherwise), to set-off and appropriate and apply against
      such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
      provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness
      or
      claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute
      or
      contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Secured
      Party to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor. Each Secured Party
      shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the appropriation
      and application made by such Secured Party, provided
      that the
      failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
      application.

     

    5.  No
      Subrogation.
      Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Guarantors hereunder
      or any set-off or appropriation and application of funds of any of the
      Guarantors by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, no Guarantor
      shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights (or if subrogated by
      operation of law, such Guarantor hereby waives such rights to the extent
      permitted by applicable law) of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
      against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or
      guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
      Party for the payment of any of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek
      or
      be entitled to seek any contribution, indemnifications or reimbursement from
      the
      Borrower or any other Guarantor or other guarantor in respect of payments made
      by such Guarantor hereunder in each case, until all amounts owing to the
      Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties on account of the Obligations
      under the Credit Documents are paid in full and the Commitments thereunder
      are
      terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such
      subrogation rights at any time when all the Obligations shall not have been
      paid
      in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Collateral
      Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such
      Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over
      to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly
      indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -3-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
if
        required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether due or to become
        due,
        in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine. Each Guarantor further
        agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise
        of
        its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution
        as
        set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void
        or
        voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or
        indemnification such Guarantor may have against Borrower or against any
        collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may
        have
        against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any
        rights
        the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may have against Borrower, to all
        right, title and interest the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may have
        in
        any such collateral or security, and to any right the Collateral Agent or
        any
        Secured Party may have against such other guarantor.

    

     

    6.  Amendments,
      etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights.
      Each
      Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any
      reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further
      assent by any Guarantor, (a) any demand for payment of any of the Obligations
      made by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by
      such
      party and any of the Obligations continued, (b) the Obligations, or the
      liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral
      security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may,
      from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified,
      accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral
      Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) the Credit Agreement, the other
      Credit Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection
      therewith and the Secured Hedge Agreements and any other documents executed
      and
      delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or
      terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required
      Lenders, as the case may be, or, in the case of any Secured Hedge Agreement,
      the
      party thereto) may deem advisable from time to time, and (d) any collateral
      security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent
      or any other Secured Party for the payment of any of the Obligations may be
      sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Collateral Agent
      nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure,
      perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the
      Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. When making
      any demand hereunder against any Guarantor, the Collateral Agent or any other
      Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand
      on
      any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other person, and any failure by the
      Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand or to
      collect any payments from any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other person
      or
      any release of any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other person shall not
      relieve any Guarantor in respect of which a demand or collection is not made
      or
      any Guarantor not so released of its several obligations or liabilities
      hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express
      or
      implied, or as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
      Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the
      commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 

     

    7.  Guarantee
      Absolute and Unconditional.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -4-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (a)  Each
      Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, contraction, incurrence,
      renewal, extension, amendment, waiver or accrual of any of the Obligations,
      and
      notice of or proof of reliance by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
      Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee. All Obligations
      shall
      conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed,
      extended, amended, waived or accrued, in reliance upon this Guarantee, and
      all
      dealings between any Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
      the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise
      shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance
      upon
      this Guarantee. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each
      Guarantor waives diligence, promptness, presentment, protest and notice of
      protest, demand for payment or performance, notice of default or nonpayment,
      notice of acceptance and any other notice in respect of the Obligations or
      any
      part of them, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or any other
      defense of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the
      Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guarantee shall
      be
      construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment
      and
      not of collection (this Guarantee is a primary obligation of each Guarantor
      and
      not merely a contract of surety) without regard to and hereby waives, to the
      fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all defenses that it may
      have arising in connection with, (a) the validity, regularity or
      enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Secured
      Hedge Agreement, any of the Obligations or any amendment to or waiver of, any
      provision of any thereof (including any change in time, place, manner, or place
      of payment, amendment, or waiver or increase thereof) or any collateral security
      therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or
      from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party,
      (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment
      or performance), including but not limited to failure of consideration, breach
      of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and
      satisfaction and usury, that may at any time be available to or be asserted
      by
      any Borrower against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or, (c)
      any
      other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any
      Borrower or such Guarantor) that constitutes, or might be construed to
      constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Borrower for the Obligations,
      or of such Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other
      instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor,
      the Collateral Agent and any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no
      obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any
      Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee
      for
      the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure
      by
      the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to pursue such other rights
      or
      remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower or any such other Person
      or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise
      any
      such right of offset, or any release of any Borrower or any such other Person
      or
      any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve
      such Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the
      rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law,
      of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties against such Guarantor.
      

     

    (b)  This
      Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance
      with and to the extent of its terms upon each Guarantor and the successors
      and
      assigns 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -5-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
thereof
        and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
        Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns
        until all Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity obligations not
        then
        due) shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Commitments thereunder
        shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term
        of
        the Credit Agreement and any Secured Hedge Agreement the Credit Parties may
        be
        free from any Obligations.

    

     

    (c)  A
      Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and
      the
      Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be automatically released under the
      circumstances described in Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement.

     

    8.  Reinstatement.
      This
      Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may
      be,
      if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is
      rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent
      or
      any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution,
      liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or
      as a
      result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or
      trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial
      part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been
      made.

     

    9.  Payments.
      Each
      Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the
      Collateral Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars (based on the Dollar
      Equivalent amount of such Obligations on the date of payment) at the Collateral
      Agent’s Office. Each Guarantor agrees that the provisions of Sections 5.4 and
      13.19 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to such Guarantor’s obligations under
      this Guarantee.

     

    10.  Representations
      and Warranties; Covenants.

     

    (a)  Each
      Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the representations and warranties
      set forth in Section 8 of the Credit Agreement as they relate to such
      Guarantor and in the other Credit Documents to which such Guarantor is a party,
      each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct
      in all material respects as of the Closing Date (except where such
      representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which
      case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material
      respects as of such earlier date), and the Collateral Agent and each other
      Secured Party shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were fully
      set forth herein.

     

    (b)  Each
      Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with the Collateral Agent and each other
      Secured Party that, from and after the date of this Guarantee until the
      Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, such Guarantor
      shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that
      are necessary to be taken or not taken so that no violation of any provision,
      covenant or agreement contained in Section 9 or Section 10 of the
      Credit Agreement and so that no Default or Event of Default, is caused by any
      act or failure to act of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -6-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
      11.  Authority
        of the Collateral Agent.

       

      (a)  The
        Collateral Agent enters into this Guarantee in its capacity as agent for
        the
        Secured Parties from time to time. The rights and obligations of the Collateral
        Agent under this Guarantee at any time are the rights and obligations of
        the
        Secured Parties at that time. Each of the Secured Parties has (subject to
        the
        terms of the Credit Documents) a several entitlement to each such right,
        and a
        several liability in respect of each such obligation, in the proportions
        described in the Credit Documents. The rights, remedies and discretions of
        the
        Secured Parties, or any of them, under this Guarantee may be exercised by
        the
        Collateral Agent. No party to this Guarantee is obliged to inquire whether
        an
        exercise by the Collateral Agent of any such right, remedy or discretion
        is
        within the Collateral Agent’s authority as agent for the Secured
        Parties.

       

      (b)  Each
        party to this Guarantee acknowledges and agrees that any changes (in accordance
        with the provisions of the Credit Documents) in the identity of the persons
        from
        time to time comprising the Secured Parties gives rise to an equivalent change
        in the Secured Parties, without any further act. Upon such an occurrence,
        the
        persons then comprising the Secured Parties are vested with the rights, remedies
        and discretions and assume the obligations of the Secured Parties under this
        Guarantee. Each party to this Guarantee irrevocably authorizes the Collateral
        Agent to give effect to the change in Lenders contemplated in this Section
        11(b)
        by countersigning an Assignment and Acceptance.

    

     

    (c)  Each
      Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has adequate means to obtain
      information from the Borrower and each other Guarantor on a continuing basis
      concerning the financial condition of the Borrower and each other Guarantor
      and
      its ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement, the other
      Credit Documents and any Secured Hedge Agreement, and each Guarantor assumes
      the
      responsibility of keeping informed of the financial condition of the Borrower
      and each other Guarantor and all circumstances bearing upon the risk of
      nonpayment of the Borrower and each other Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby
      waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of the Collateral Agent to disclose
      any matter, fact or thing related to the Borrower and each other Guarantor
      whether now or hereafter known.

     

    12.  Notices.
      All
      notices, requests and demands pursuant hereto shall be made in accordance with
      Section 13.2 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder
      to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower at the Borrower’s
      address set forth in Section 13.2 of the Credit Agreement.

     

    13.  Counterparts.
      This
      Guarantee may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Guarantee on
      any
      number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic
      transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed
      to
      constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Guarantee
      signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Collateral Agent and the
      Borrower.

     

    14.  Severability.
      Any
      provision of this Guarantee that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
      jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
      such 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -7-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
prohibition
        or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof,
        and
        any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
        invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
        The
        parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid,
        illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect
        of
        which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or
        unenforceable provisions.

    

     

    15.  Integration.
      This
      Guarantee together with the other Credit Documents and each other document
      in
      respect of any Secured Hedge Agreement represent the agreement of each Guarantor
      and the Collateral Agent with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there
      are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Collateral
      Agent or any other Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not
      expressly set forth or referred to herein, in the other Credit Documents or,
      each other document in respect of any Secured Hedge Agreement.

     

    16.  Amendments
      in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

     

    (a)  None
      of
      the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended, supplemented
      or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 13.1 of the Credit
      Agreement.

     

    (b)  Neither
      the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by
      a
      written instrument pursuant to Section 16(a)), delay, indulgence, omission
      or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have
      acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the
      terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in
      exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party,
      any
      right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single
      or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude
      any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
      or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of
      any
      right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar
      to
      any right or remedy that the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party would
      otherwise have on any future occasion.

     

    (c)  The
      rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative, may
      be
      exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights
      or
      remedies provided by law.

     

    17.  Section
      Headings.
      The
      Section headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only
      and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration
      in
      the interpretation hereof.

     

    18.  Successors
      and Assigns.
      This
      Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Guarantor
      and
      shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties
      and their respective successors and assigns except that no Guarantor may

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -8-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
assign,
        transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Guarantee
        without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

    

     

    19.  Additional
      Guarantors.
      Each
      Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to become a party to this Guarantee
      pursuant to Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement shall become a Guarantor,
      with
      the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein, for
      all
      purposes of this Guarantee, upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary
      of a
      written supplement substantially in the form of Annex A hereto. The execution
      and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Guarantor as a party to
      this
      Guarantee shall not require the consent of any other Guarantor hereunder. The
      rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force
      and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor as a party to
      this
      Guarantee (and any such assignment without such consent shall be null and
      void).

     

    20.  WAIVER
      OF JURY TRIAL.
      EACH
      GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
      LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTEE, ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT
      AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

     

    21.  Submission
      to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Service of Process.
      Each
      Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

     

    (a)  submits
      for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this
      Guarantee and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party, or for
      recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the
      non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York,
      the
      courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of
      New York and appellate courts from any thereof;

     

    (b)  consents
      that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives
      any
      objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action
      or
      proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought
      in an
      inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

     

    (c)  agrees
      that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by
      mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially
      similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Guarantor in care of the
      Borrower at the Borrower’s address set forth in the Credit Agreement, and such
      Person hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Borrower to accept such
      service on its behalf;

     

    (d)  agrees
      that nothing herein shall affect the right of the Collateral Agent or any other
      Secured Party to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by
      law
      or shall limit the right of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
      to
      sue in any other jurisdiction; and

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -9-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (e)  waives,
      to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim
      or
      recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section 21
      any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

     

    22.  GOVERNING
      LAW.
      THIS
      GUARANTEE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE
      GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
      STATE OF NEW YORK.

    SUPPLEMENT
      NO. [ ] dated as of
      [                    ]
      to the GUARANTEE (the “Guarantee”) dated as of July 6, 2007, among each of the
      Guarantors listed on the signature pages thereto (each such subsidiary
      individually, a “Guarantor”
and,
      collectively, the “Guarantors”),
      and
      Citicorp North America Inc., as Collateral Agent for the Lenders from time
      to
      time parties to the Credit Agreement referred to below.

     

    A.    Reference
      is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, (as
      the
      same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, refinanced
      or
      replaced from time to time, the “Credit
      Agreement”)
      among
      Dollar General Corporation, a Tennessee corporation (the “Borrower”),
      the
      lenders or other financial institutions or entities from time to time party
      thereto (the “Lenders”),
      Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P., as Syndication Agent, Lehman Brothers Inc.
      and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC, as Documentation Agents, and Citicorp North
      America, Inc., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

    B.    Capitalized
      terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
      assigned to such terms in the Guarantee.

     

    C.    The
      Guarantors have entered into the Guarantee in order to induce the Administrative
      Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement
      and to induce the Lenders to make their respective Loans to the Borrower under
      the Credit Agreement and to induce one or more Hedge Banks to enter into Secured
      Hedge Agreements with the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries.

     

    D.    Section
      9.11 of the Credit Agreement and Section 19 of the Guarantee provide that
      additional Subsidiaries may become Guarantors under the Guarantee by execution
      and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. Each undersigned
      Subsidiary (each a “New
      Guarantor”)
      is
      executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit
      Agreement to become a Guarantor under the Guarantee in order to induce the
      Lenders to make additional Loans, to induce one or more Hedge Banks to enter
      into Secured Hedge Agreements and as consideration for Loans previously
      made.

    Accordingly,
      the Collateral Agent and each New Guarantor agrees as follows:

     

    SECTION
      1.    In
      accordance with Section 19 of the Guarantee, each New Guarantor by its signature
      below becomes a Guarantor under the Guarantee with the same force and effect
      as
      if originally named therein as a Guarantor, and each New Guarantor hereby (a)
      agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Guarantee applicable to it as
      a
      Guarantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations
      and warranties made by it as a Guarantor thereunder are true and correct on
      and
      as of the date hereof (except where such representations and warranties
      expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and
      warranties were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier
      date). Each reference to a Guarantor in the Guarantee shall be deemed to include
      each New Guarantor. The Guarantee is hereby incorporated herein by
      reference.

     

    SECTION
      2.    Each
      New Guarantor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other
      Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and
      

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
delivered
        by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable
        against it in accordance with its terms.

    

     

    SECTION
      3.    This
      Supplement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Supplement
      on
      any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic
      transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed
      to
      constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Supplement
      signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Collateral
      Agent. This Supplement shall become effective as to each New Guarantor when
      the

    2.  Grant
      of Security Interest.

     

    (a)  Each
      Grantor hereby bargains, sells, conveys, assigns, sets over, mortgages, pledges,
      hypothecates and transfers to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit
      of
      the Secured Parties, and grants to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit

      extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds and products of any and all of
      the
      foregoing;

     

    provided,
      (x) the
      Collateral for any Obligations shall not include any Excluded Stock and Stock
      Equivalents with respect to such Obligations, (y) that none of the items
      included in clauses (i) through (xiv) above shall constitute Collateral to
      the
      extent (and only to the extent) that the grant of the Security Interest therein
      would violate any Requirement of Law applicable to such Collateral (other than
      to the extent that any such Requirement of Law would be rendered ineffective
      pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC (or any successor
      provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable
      law) and (z) the Collateral shall not include any “intent-to-use” Trademark
      application prior to the filing of and acceptance by the United States Patent
      and Trademark Office of a “Statement of Use” or “Amendment to Allege Use” with
      respect thereto, to the extent, if any, that, solely during the period, if
      any,
      in which the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity
      or
      enforceability of any registration issuing from such “intent-to-use” Trademark
      application under applicable federal law.

     

    (b)  Each
      Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent and its Affiliates,
      counsel and other representatives, at any time and from time to time, to file
      or
      record financing statements, amendments to financing statements and, with notice
      to the Borrower, and other filing or recording documents or instruments with
      respect to the Collateral in such form and in such offices as the Collateral
      Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the Security Interests of
      the
      Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement, and such financing statements
      and amendments may describe the Collateral covered thereby as “all assets”, “all
      personal property” or words of similar effect. Each Grantor hereby also
      authorizes the Collateral Agent and its Affiliates, counsel and other
      representatives, at any time and from time to time, to file continuation
      statements with respect to previously filed financing statements. A photographic
      or other reproduction of this Security Agreement shall be sufficient as a
      financing statement or 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
other
        filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any
        jurisdiction to the Collateral Agent. 

    

     

    Each
      Grantor hereby agrees to provide to the Collateral Agent, promptly upon request,
      any information reasonably necessary to effectuate the filings or recordings
      authorized by this Section 2(b) including the Intellectual Property filings
      referred to below.

     

    The
      Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent
      and
      Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office
      or
      any similar office in any other country) such documents as may be necessary
      or
      advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing
      or
      protecting the Security Interest granted hereunder by each Grantor, without
      the
      signature of any Grantor, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors
      and
      the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, as secured party provided that at
      the
      reasonable request of the Collateral Agent each Grantor agrees to execute any
      such documents to be so filed.

     

    The
      Security Interests are granted as security only and shall not subject the
      Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify,
      any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of
      the
      Collateral.

     

    3.  Representations
      and Warranties.

     

    Each
      Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and each Secured
      Party on the date hereof:

     

    3.1  Title;
      No Other Liens.
      Except
      for (a) the Security Interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit
      of
      the Secured Parties pursuant to this Security Agreement, (b) the Liens permitted
      by the Credit Agreement and (c) any Liens securing Indebtedness which is no
      longer outstanding or any Liens with respect to commitments to lend which have
      been terminated, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear
      of
      any and all Liens or claims of others. No security agreement, financing
      statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the
      Collateral that evidences a Lien securing any material Indebtedness is on file
      or of record in any public office, except such as (i) have been filed in favor
      of the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant
      to this Security Agreement or (ii) are permitted by the Credit
      Agreement.

     

    3.2  Perfected
      First Priority Liens.

     

    (a)  This
      Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent,
      for
      its benefit and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, legal, valid and
      enforceable Security Interests in the Collateral, subject to the effects of
      bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and
      general equitable principles.

     

    (b)  Subject
      to the limitations set forth in clause (c) of this Section 3.2, the Security
      Interests granted pursuant to this Security Agreement (i) will constitute valid
      and perfected Security Interests in the Collateral (as to which perfection
      may
      be obtained by the filings or other actions described in clause (A), (B) or
      (C)
      of this paragraph) in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit
      of
      the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Obligations, upon (A) the
      

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
filing
        in
        the applicable filing offices listed on Schedule I hereto of all financing
        statements, in each case, naming each Grantor as “debtor” and the Collateral
        Agent as “secured party” and describing the Collateral, (B) delivery to the
        Collateral Agent (or its bailee) of all Instruments, Chattel Paper, Certificated
        Securities and negotiable Documents in each case, properly endorsed for transfer
        in blank and (C) completion of the filing, registration and recording of
        a fully
        executed agreement in the form hereof (or a supplement hereto) and containing
        a
        description of all Collateral constituting Intellectual Property in the United
        States Patent and Trademark Office (or any successor office) within the three
        month period (commencing as of the date hereof) or, in the case of Collateral
        constituting Intellectual Property acquired after the date hereof, thereafter
        pursuant to 35 USC § 261 and 15 USC § 1060 and the regulations
        thereunder with respect to United States Patents and United States registered
        Trademarks and in the United States Copyright Office (or any successor office)
        within the one month period (commencing as of the applicable date of acquisition
        or filing) or, in the case of Collateral constituting Intellectual Property
        acquired after the date hereof, thereafter with respect to United States
        registered Copyrights pursuant to 17 USC § 205 and the regulations
        thereunder as soon as reasonably practicable, and otherwise as may be required
        pursuant to the laws of any other necessary jurisdiction to the extent that
        a
        security interest may be perfected by such filings, registrations and
        recordings, and (ii) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral other
        than
        Liens permitted pursuant to Section 10.2 of the Credit
        Agreement.

    

     

    (c)  Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary herein, no Grantor shall be required to perfect the
      Security Interests granted by this Security Agreement (including Security
      Interests in cash, cash accounts and Investment Property) by any means other
      than by (i) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code of the relevant
      State(s), (ii) filings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United
      States Copyright Office, or successor offices, that are necessary or advisable
      for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, enforcing, or protecting the Security
      Interests granted in certain Intellectual Property and (iii) delivery to the
      Collateral Agent (or its bailee) to be held in its possession of all Collateral
      consisting of Tangible Chattel Paper, Instruments or any Certificated Securities
      with a fair market value in excess of $1,500,000 individually.

     

    (d)  It
      is
      understood and agreed that the Security Interests in cash and Investment
      Property created hereunder shall not prevent the Grantors from using such assets
      in the ordinary course of their respective businesses.

    4.  Covenants.

     

    Each
      Grantor hereby covenants and agrees with the Collateral Agent and the Secured
      Parties that, from and after the date of this Security Agreement until the
      Obligations (except for contingent indemnification obligations in respect of
      which a claim has not yet been made) are paid in full and the Commitments are
      terminated:

     

    4.1  Maintenance

      Grantor will advise the Collateral Agent and the Lenders promptly, in reasonable
      detail, of any Lien of which it has knowledge (other than the Security Interests

      Collateral which would adversely affect, in any material respect, the ability
      of
      the Collateral Agent to exercise any of its remedies hereunder.

      or
      otherwise), type of organization or jurisdiction of organization or, the case
      of
      any Grantor which is a partnership, the sole place of business and chief

      any
      time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
      and
      after giving reasonable notice to the Borrower and any other relevant Grantor,
      the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
      instruct the Collateral Agent to (and upon such instruction, the Collateral
      Agent shall) make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through
      any medium that the Administrative Agent reasonably considers advisable, and
      each Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as such Agent
      may
      require in connection with such test verifications. Such Agent shall have the
      absolute right to share any information it gains from such inspection or
      verification with any Secured Party.

     

    (b)  The
      Collateral Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s
      Accounts and the Collateral Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at
      any
      time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.
      If
      required in writing by the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence
      and
      during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Accounts, when
      collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within
      two
      Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly
      endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent if required, in a Collateral
      Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of and on terms and
      conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, subject to
      withdrawal by the Collateral Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only
      as provided in Section 5.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by
      such
      Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated
      from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Accounts
      shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature
      and
      source of the payments included in the deposit.

     

    (c)  At
      the
      Collateral Agent’s request at any time after the occurrence and during the
      continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral
      Agent all

        which gave rise to the Accounts, including all original orders, invoices
        and
        shipping receipts.

    

     

    (d)  Upon
      the
      occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, a Grantor shall
      not grant any extension of the time of payment of any of the Accounts,
      compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof,
      release, wholly or partly, any Person liable for the payment thereof, or allow
      any credit or discount whatsoever thereon if the Collateral Agent shall have
      instructed the Grantors not to grant or make any such extension, credit,
      discount, compromise or settlement under any circumstances during the
      continuance of such Event of Default.

     

    5.2  Communications
      with Credit Parties; Grantors Remain Liable.

     

    (a)  The
      Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after
      the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after giving
      reasonable notice to the relevant Grantor of its intent to do so, communicate
      with obligors under the Accounts to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s
      satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts. The Collateral
      Agent shall have the absolute right to share any information it gains from
      such
      inspection or verification with any Secured Party.

     

    (b)  Upon
      the
      written request of the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and
      during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify
      obligors on the Accounts that the Accounts have been assigned to the Collateral
      Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in
      respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent.

     

    (c)  Anything
      herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under
      each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations
      to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms
      of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any
      Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or
      any
      agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Security
      Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any
      payment relating thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party
      be
      obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under
      or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make
      any
      payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment
      received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party
      thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any
      performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been
      assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

     

    5.3  Proceeds
      to be Turned Over To Collateral Agent.
      In
      addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties specified
      in Section 5.1 with respect to payments of Accounts, if an Event of Default
      shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent so requires by notice
      in
      writing to the relevant Grantor (it being understood that the exercise of
      remedies by the Secured Parties in connection with an Event of Default under
      Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a request
      by
      the Collateral Agent for the purposes of this sentence and in such
      circumstances, no such written notice shall be required), all 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
Proceeds
        received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near cash items
        shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured
        Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith
        upon
        receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact
        form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral
        Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent hereunder
        shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account maintained
        under
        its dominion and control and on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory
        to
        the Collateral Agent. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral Agent in
        a
        Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent
        and the
        Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all
        the
        Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided
        in Section 5.4.

    

     

    5.4  Application
      of Proceeds.
      The
      Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of the
      Collateral as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, at any time after
      receipt in the order specified in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement. Upon
      any
      sale of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power
      of
      sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the
      Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient
      discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such
      purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of
      any
      part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer
      or
      be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

     

    5.5  Code
      and Other Remedies.
      If an
      Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may
      exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and
      remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and
      remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC or any other applicable
      law or in equity and also may with notice to the relevant Grantor, sell the
      Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private
      sale
      or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Agent or
      any Lender or elsewhere for cash or on credit or for future delivery at such
      price or prices and upon such other terms as are commercially reasonable
      irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the
      Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it
      deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers
      of Collateral to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing
      the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to
      the
      distribution or sale thereof, and, upon consummation of any such sale, the
      Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the
      purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any
      such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right
      on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent
      permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that 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 and any Secured Party shall
      have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law,
      upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral
      so sold, and the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party may pay the purchase
      price by crediting the amount thereof against the Obligations. Each Grantor
      agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least
      ten
      days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the
      time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable
      notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale
      of
      Collateral 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. To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby waives any
        claim
        against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price
        at
        which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than
        the
        price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral
        Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral
        to
        more than one offeree. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s
        request to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral
        Agent, at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether
        at
        such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net
        proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 5.5 in accordance
        with the provisions of Section 5.4.

    

     

    5.6  Deficiency.
      Each
      Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale
      or
      other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations
      and
      the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent
      or
      any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

     

    5.7  Amendments,
      etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights.
      Each
      Grantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any
      reservation of rights against any Grantor and without notice to or further
      assent by any Grantor, (a) any demand for payment of any of the Obligations
      made
      by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by such
      party and any of the Obligations continued, (b) the Obligations, or the
      liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral
      security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may,
      from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified,
      accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral
      Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) the Credit Agreement, the other Credit
      Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith
      and the Secured Hedge Agreements and any other documents executed and delivered
      in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated,
      in
      whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders, as
      the
      case may be, or, in the case of any Secured Hedge Agreement, the Hedge Bank
      party thereto) may deem advisable from time to time, and (d) any collateral
      security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent
      or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations may be sold,
      exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Collateral Agent nor
      any
      other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or
      insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for
      this Security Agreement or any property subject thereto. When making any demand
      hereunder against any Grantor, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
      may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on any Grantor
      or any other Person, and any failure by the Collateral Agent or any other
      Secured Party to make any such demand or to collect any payments from any
      Borrower or any Grantor or any other Person or any release of any Borrower
      or
      any Grantor or any other Person shall not relieve any Grantor in respect of
      which a demand or collection is not made or any Grantor not so released of
      its
      several obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect
      the
      rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the
      Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Grantor. For the
      purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any
      legal proceedings.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    5.8  License
      to Use Intellectual Property.
      For the
      purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of an Event
      of
      Default, to exercise rights and remedies hereunder at such time as the
      Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and
      remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral
      Agent, to the extent such Grantor has the right to do so, an irrevocable,
      assignable, non-exclusive license to use, license or sublicense any of the
      Intellectual Property now owned or held, or hereafter acquired, by such Grantor,
      wherever the same may be located. To the extent permitted, such license shall
      include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded
      or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout
      hereof.

     

    6.  The
      Collateral Agent.

     

    6.1  Collateral
      Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

     

    (a)  Each
      Grantor hereby appoints, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with
      an
      interest, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
      of Default, the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full
      power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full
      irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and
      in
      the name of such Grantor or otherwise, for the purpose of carrying out the
      terms
      of this Security Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to
      execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or desirable
      to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement, and, without limiting
      the
      generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent
      the
      power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, either in the Collateral Agent’s
      name or in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, without assent by such
      Grantor, to do any or all of the following, in each case after the occurrence
      and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after written notice
      by
      the Collateral Agent of its intent to do so:

     

    (i)  take
      possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances
      or
      other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Account or with
      respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action
      or
      proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by
      the
      Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due
      under
      any Account or with respect to any other Collateral whenever
      payable;

     

    (ii)  in
      the
      case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded,
      any
      and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent
      may request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ Security
      Interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles
      of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

     

    (iii)  pay
      or
      discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the
      Collateral;

     

    (iv)  execute,
      in connection with any sale provided for in Section 5.5, any endorsements,
      assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to
      the
      Collateral;

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (v)  obtain
      and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor pursuant to
      Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement; 

     

    (vi)  direct
      any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment
      of
      any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral
      Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct;

     

    (vii)  ask
      or
      demand for, collect and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys,
      claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or
      arising out of any Collateral;

     

    (viii)  sign
      and
      endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or
      warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices
      and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral;

     

    (ix)  commence
      and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any
      court
      of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof
      and
      to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral;

     

    (x)  defend
      any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to
      any
      Collateral (with such Grantor’s consent to the extent such action or its
      resolution could materially affect such Grantor or any of its affiliates in
      any
      manner other than with respect to its continuing rights in such
      Collateral);

     

    (xi)  settle,
      compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection
      therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem
      appropriate (with such Grantor’s consent to the extent such action or its
      resolution could materially affect such Grantor or any of its affiliates in
      any
      manner other than with respect to its continuing rights in such
      Collateral);

     

    (xii)  assign
      any Intellectual Property, throughout the world for such term or terms, on
      such
      conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole
      discretion determine; and

     

    (xiii)  generally,
      sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise
      deal
      with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral
      Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the
      Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time
      to time, all acts and things that the Collateral Agent deems necessary to
      protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s and
      the Secured Parties’ Security Interests therein and to effect the intent of this
      Security Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might
      do.

     

    Anything
      in this Section 6.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent
      agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided
      for in this Section 6.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and
      be
      continuing.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (b)  If
      any
      Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein,
      the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may
      perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such
      agreement.

     

    (c)  The
      expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken
      as provided in this Section 6.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per
      annum equal to the highest rate per annum at which interest would then be
      payable on any category of past due ABR Loans under the Credit Agreement, from
      the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the
      relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent
      on
      demand.

     

    (d)  Each
      Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause
      to be
      done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in
      this
      Security Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this
      Security Agreement is terminated and the Security Interests created hereby
      are
      released.

     

    6.2  Duty
      of Collateral Agent.
      The
      Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
      physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207
      of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the
      Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The Collateral
      Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and
      preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded
      treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its
      own
      property. Neither the Collateral Agent, any Secured Party nor any of their
      respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure
      to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in
      doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any
      Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any
      other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.
      The
      powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder
      are
      solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in
      the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any
      Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the Secured
      Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as
      a
      result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their
      officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor
      for
      any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence
      or
      willful misconduct.

     

    6.3  Authority
      of Collateral Agent.
      Each
      Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral
      Agent under this Security Agreement with respect to any action taken by the
      Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of
      any
      option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for
      herein or resulting or arising out of this Security Agreement shall, as between
      the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit
      Agreement, and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from
      time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors,
      the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for
      the applicable Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or
      refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or
      entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    6.4  Security
      Interest Absolute.
      All
      rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Security Interest and all
      obligations of the Grantors hereunder shall be absolute and
      unconditional.

     

    6.5  Continuing
      Security Interest; Assignments Under the Credit Agreement;
      Release.

     

    (a)  This
      Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in
      accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Grantor and the
      successors and assigns thereof and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral
      Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees,
      transferees and assigns until all Obligations under the Credit Documents (other
      than any contingent indemnity obligations not then due) and the obligations
      of
      each Grantor under this Security Agreement shall have been satisfied by payment
      in full and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from
      time
      to time during the term of the Credit Agreement and any Secured Hedge Agreement
      the Credit Parties may be free from any Obligations.

     

    (b)  A
      Subsidiary Grantor shall automatically be released from its obligations
      hereunder if it ceases to be a Guarantor in accordance with Section 13.1 of
      the
      Credit Agreement.

     

    (c)  The
      Security Interest granted hereby in any Collateral shall automatically be
      released (i) to the extent provided in Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement
      and
      (ii) upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the
      security interest granted hereby in such Collateral pursuant to Section 13.1
      of
      the Credit Agreement. Any such release in connection with any sale, transfer
      or
      other disposition of such Collateral shall result in such Collateral being
      sold,
      transferred or disposed of, as applicable, free and clear of the Lien and
      Security Interest created hereby.

     

    (d)  In
      connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or
      (c), the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such
      Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to
      evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents
      pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the
      Collateral Agent.

     

    6.6  Reinstatement.
      Each
      Grantor further agrees that, if any payment made by any Credit Party or other
      Person and applied to the Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set
      aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or
      otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of Collateral
      are
      required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Credit Party, its estate,
      trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any
      bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then,
      to
      the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing
      such liability shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if
      such
      payment had never been made or, if prior thereto the Lien granted hereby or
      other Collateral securing such liability hereunder shall have been released
      or
      terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender), such Lien or other
      Collateral shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior
      cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or
      otherwise affect any Lien or other Collateral securing the obligations of any
      Grantor in respect of the amount of such payment.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    6.7  Further
      Assurances.
      Subject
      to Section 3.2(c) hereof, each Grantor agrees that at any time and from time
      to
      time, at the expense of such Grantor, it will execute or otherwise authorize
      the
      filing of any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and
      instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and
      recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust
      and other documents), which may be required under any applicable law, or which
      the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in
      order (x) to perfect and protect any pledge, assignment or security interest
      granted or purported to be granted hereby (including the priority thereof)
      or
      (y) to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and
      remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

     

    7.  Collateral
      Agent As Agent.

     

    (a)  Citicorp
      has been appointed to act as the Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement,
      by
      the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and, by their acceptance of the benefits
      hereof, the other Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall be obligated,
      and
      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 any
      action (including the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in
      accordance with this Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement, provided
      that the
      Collateral Agent shall exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies
      provided for in Section 5 in accordance with the instructions of Required
      Lenders. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(a), each
      Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall
      have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder,
      it
      being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies
      hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the ratable
      benefit of the applicable Lenders and Secured Parties in accordance with the
      terms of this Section 7(a).

     

    (b)  The
      Collateral Agent shall at all times be the same Person that is the Collateral
      Agent under the Credit Agreement. Written notice of resignation by the
      Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 12.9 of the Credit Agreement shall also
      constitute notice of resignation as Collateral Agent under this Security
      Agreement; removal of the Collateral Agent shall also constitute removal under
      this Security Agreement; and appointment of a Collateral Agent pursuant to
      Section 12.9 of the Credit Agreement shall also constitute appointment of a
      successor Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement. Upon the acceptance
      of
      any appointment as Collateral Agent under Section 12.9 of the Credit Agreement
      by a 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 or removed Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement,
      and
      the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement shall
      promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, securities
      and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and
      other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance
      of
      the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement,
      and
      (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise
      authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements and take such
      other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the
      assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the Security Interests created
      hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall be
      discharged from its duties and obligations under this Security Agreement. After
      any retiring or removed Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as
      Collateral Agent, the provi-

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
sions
        of
        this Security Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken
        or
        omitted to be taken by it under this Security Agreement while it was Collateral
        Agent hereunder.

    

     

    (c)  The
      Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have any duty whatsoever with respect
      to
      any Secured Party that is a counterparty to a Secured Hedge Agreement the
      obligations under which constitute Obligations, unless it shall have received
      written notice in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent from
      a
      Grantor or any such Secured Party as to the existence and terms of the
      applicable Secured Hedge Agreement.

     

    8.  Miscellaneous.

     

    8.1  Amendments
      in Writing.
      None of
      the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, amended,
      supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed
      by
      the affected Grantor and the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 13.1
      of
      the Credit Agreement.

     

    8.2  Notices.
      All
      notices, requests and demands pursuant hereto shall be made in accordance with
      Section 13.2 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder
      to any Subsidiary Grantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower at the
      Borrower’s address set forth in Section 13.2 of the Credit
      Agreement.

     

    8.3  No
      Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies.
      Neither
      the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written
      instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise
      be
      deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in
      any
      Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions
      hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of
      the
      Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege
      hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise
      of
      any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further
      exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A
      waiver by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy
      hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right
      or
      remedy that the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise
      have on any future occasion. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein
      provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not
      exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

     

    8.4  Enforcement
      Expenses; Indemnification.

     

    (a)  Each
      Grantor agrees to pay any and all reasonable out of pocket expenses (including
      all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that may be paid or incurred
      by any Secured Party in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect
      of,
      any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or
      enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, such Grantor under
      this Security Agreement.

     

    (b)  Each
      Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties
      harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any
      delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes that may be
      payable or determined to be 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
payable
        with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the
        transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement.

    

     

    (c)  Each
      Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties
      harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
      actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or
      nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
      performance and administration of this Security Agreement to the extent a
      Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 13.5 of the Credit
      Agreement.

     

    (d)  The
      agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and
      all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit
      Documents.

     

    8.5  Successors
      and Assigns.
      The
      provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
      benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns
      permitted hereby, except that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any
      of
      its rights or obligations under this Security Agreement without the prior
      written consent of the Collateral Agent except pursuant to a transaction
      permitted by the Credit Agreement.

     

    8.6  Counterparts.
      This
      Security Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this
      Security Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by
      facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken
      together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of
      the
      copies of this Security Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged
      with
      the Collateral Agent and the Borrower.

     

    8.7  Severability.
      Any
      provision of this Security Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in
      any
      jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
      such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
      provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
      jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
      any
      other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations
      to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
      provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that
      of
      the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

     

    8.8  Section
      Headings.
      The
      Section headings used in this Security Agreement are for convenience of
      reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into
      consideration in the interpretation hereof.

     

    8.9  Integration.
      This
      Security Agreement together with the other Credit Documents represents the
      agreement of each of the Grantors with respect to the subject matter hereof
      and
      there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the
      Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party relative to the subject matter
      hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit
      Documents.

      LAW.

    8.11  Submission
      To Jurisdiction Waivers.
      Each
      party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

     

    (a)  submits
      for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this
      Security Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party, or
      for

      non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York,

      and appellate courts from any thereof;

     

    (b)  consents
      that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives
      any
      objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action
      or
      proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought
      in an
      inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

     

    (c)  agrees
      that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by
      mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially
      similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Person at its address referred
      to in Section 8.2 or at such other address of which such Person shall have
      been
      notified pursuant thereto;

     

    (d)  agrees
      that nothing herein shall affect the right of any other party hereto (or any
      Secured Party) to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by
      law
      or shall limit the right of any party hereto (or any Secured Party) to sue
      in
      any other jurisdiction; and

     

    (e)  waives,
      to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim

      any
      special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

     

    8.12  Acknowledgments.
      Each
      party hereto hereby acknowledges that:

     

    (a)  it
      has
      been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this
      Security Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which it is a
      party;

     

    (b)  neither
      the Collateral Agent nor any other Agent or Secured Party has any fiduciary
      relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with
      this Security Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, and the
      relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent,
      each other Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection
      herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

     

    (c)  no
      joint
      venture is created hereby or by the other Credit Documents or otherwise exists
      by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders, the Agents
      and any other Secured Party or among the Grantors and the Lenders, the Agents
      and any other Secured Party.

     

    8.13  Additional
      Grantors.
      Each
      Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to become a party to this Security
      Agreement pursuant to Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement shall become a
      Grantor, with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor
      

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
herein,
        for all purposes of this Security Agreement upon execution and delivery by
        such
        Subsidiary of a written supplement substantially in the form of Annex

        hereto.
        The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Grantor
        as a
        party to this Security Agreement shall not require the consent of any other
        Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall
        remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor
        as a party to this Security Agreement.

    

     

    8.14  WAIVER
      OF JURY TRIAL.
      EACH
      PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN

    8.15  Intercreditor
      Agreement.
       Notwithstanding
      anything herein to the contrary, the liens and security interests granted to
      the
      Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or
      remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder, in each case, with respect to the
      Revolving Credit Collateral are subject to the limitations and provisions of
      the
      Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of July 6, 2007 (as amended, restated,
      supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor
      Agreement”),
      among
      The CIT Group/Business Credit, Inc., as ABL Collateral Agent, the Collateral
      Agent, and certain other Persons party or that may become party thereto from
      time to time, and by the Grantors identified therein. In the event of any
      conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of
      this
      Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Collateral, the terms of the
      Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Any provision of this
      Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) no Grantor shall be required
      to
      act or refrain from acting in a manner that is inconsistent with the terms
      and
      provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and (b) prior to the satisfaction
      and
      discharge in full of the Revolving Credit Obligations (as defined in the
      Intercreditor Agreement), no Grantor shall be required to act or refrain from
      acting with respect to any Revolving Credit Collateral if compliance by such
      Grantor with such requirement would result in a breach of or constitute a
      default under any Revolving Credit Loan Document (as defined in the
      Intercreditor Agreement).
