bylaws or similar agreement, cannot be, or requires any consent (which has not been obtained) to

Lien is granted (or the documentation providing for such purchase money, project financing or
capital or finance lease obligation) prohibits the creation of any other Lien on such property,
except to the extent that the term in such contract or other agreement providing for such
prohibition is ineffective under Applicable Law, and (vi) any Equity Interests or other securities
of any Subsidiary of a Grantor in excess of the maximum amount of such Equity Interests or
securities that could be included in the Collateral without creating a requirement pursuant to Rule

as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Collateral Agent or any Secured
Party of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or
obligations under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, and (c) no Secured
Party shall have any obligation or liability under such contracts and agreements included in the
Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of
the obligations or duties of any Grantors thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce
any claim for payment assigned hereunder. Until an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the
Indenture and the other Senior Note Documents, Grantors shall have the right to possession and
enjoyment of the Collateral, subject to and upon the terms hereof and of the Credit Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, the Indenture and the other Senior Note Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that record and beneficial

the United States Copyright Office and filing of the Patent Security Agreement and the Trademark
Security Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and the filing of
appropriate financing statements in the jurisdictions listed on Schedule 9, all action

Grantor has any interest in any Copyright that is necessary in connection with the operation of
such Grantor’s business, except (i) for those Copyrights identified on Schedule 2 which
have been registered with the United States Copyright Office or (ii) for those Copyrights which the
failure to register with the United State Copyright Office could not reasonably be expected to have
a Materially Adverse Effect.

          (e) This Agreement creates a valid security interest in the Collateral of each of Grantors, to
the extent a security interest therein can be created under the UCC, securing the payment of the
Secured Obligations. Except to the extent a security interest in the Collateral cannot be

necessary to perfect such security interest have been duly taken or will have been taken upon the
filing of financing statements listing each applicable Grantor, as a debtor, and Collateral Agent,
as secured party, in the jurisdictions listed next to such Grantor’s name on Schedule 9.
Upon the making of such filings, Collateral Agent shall have a first priority perfected security
interest in the Collateral of each Grantor to the extent such security interest can be perfected by
the filing of a financing statement subject only to Permitted Liens. All action reasonably
required by Collateral Agent by any Grantor necessary to protect and perfect such security interest
on each item of Collateral has been duly taken.

          (f) (i) Except for the Security Interest created hereby, other Liens created by the Credit
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Indenture, the Senior Note Documents, any Additional Loan
and Notes Agreement (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and other Permitted Liens, each
Grantor is and will at all times be the sole holder of record and the legal and beneficial owner,

the Pledged Interests, to the extent such Pledged Interests are represented by certificates,
together with undated powers endorsed in blank by the applicable Grantor, (C) upon the filing of
financing statements in the applicable jurisdiction set forth on Schedule 9 for

10

 

such Grantor with respect to the Pledged Interests of such Grantor that are not represented by
certificates, (D) with respect to any Securities Accounts, upon the delivery of Blocked Account

a notation with respect to the Lien of Collateral Agent being recorded in the appropriate corporate

recording office, having been authorized by such Grantor, except as may have been filed in favor of
Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

Property or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, except as may be
required in connection with such disposition of Investment Related Property by laws affecting the
offering and sale of securities generally, then, upon the reasonable request of Collateral Agent,
each Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Collateral Agent in
obtaining as soon as practicable any such necessary approvals or consent for the exercise of any
such remedies and rights.

               (v) Each Grantor agrees that it will cooperate with Collateral Agent in obtaining all
necessary approvals and making all necessary filings under federal, state, local, or foreign law in
connection with the Security Interest on the Investment Related Property or any sale or transfer
thereof; and

               (vi) As to all limited liability company or partnership interests, issued under any Pledged
Operating Agreement or Pledged Partnership Agreement, each Grantor hereby represents, warrants and
covenants that the Pledged Interests issued pursuant to such agreement (A) are not and shall not be
dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in securities markets, (B) do not and will not
constitute investment company securities, and (C) are not and will not be held by such Grantor in a
securities account. In addition, none of the Pledged Operating Agreements, the Pledged Partnership
Agreements, or any other agreements governing any of the Pledged Interests issued under any Pledged
Operating Agreement or Pledged Partnership Agreement, provide or shall provide that such Pledged
Interests are securities governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any
relevant jurisdiction, unless such Pledged Interests are duly certificated, endorsed and delivered
to Collateral Agent in accordance herewith;

          (i) Real Property; Fixtures. Each Grantor covenants and agrees that (i) upon the
acquisition of any fee interest in Real Property in excess of $350,000 in value it will promptly
(and in any event within five (5) Business Days of acquisition) notify Collateral Agent of the
acquisition of such Real Property and (ii) upon the acquisition of any fee interest in Real

14

 

Property in excess of $500,000 in value, it will grant to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of
the Secured Parties, a first priority Mortgage, subject to Permitted Liens, on each such acquired
fee interest in Real Property now or hereafter owned by such Grantor and shall deliver such other
documentation and opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent, in
connection with the grant of such Mortgage as Collateral Agent shall request in its Permitted
Discretion, including title insurance policies, financing statements, fixture filings and
environmental audits and such Grantor shall pay all recording costs, intangible taxes and other
fees and costs (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection therewith. Each
Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, all of the
Collateral shall remain personal property regardless of the manner of its attachment or affixation
to real property;

          (j) Transfers and Other Liens. Grantors shall not (i) sell, assign (by operation of
law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the
Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Indenture, or (ii) create
or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of any of Grantors,
except for Permitted Liens. The inclusion of Proceeds in the Collateral shall not be deemed to
constitute Collateral Agent’s consent to any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral
except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and the Indenture or
the other Senior Note Documents;

          (k) General Intangibles. To the extent that any asset purchase agreement or similar
document in respect of any acquisition permitted under the Credit Agreement and the Indenture
prohibits the grant of a security interest in any Grantor’s interest therein (including any
provision stating that such grant would constitute a default under, or give rise to the right to
terminate, such agreement), such Grantor shall use good faith commercially reasonable efforts to
secure the consent to the granting of such security interest from each counterparty thereto on or
prior to the date of consummation of such acquisition. To the extent that any other agreement
(including any other Material Contract) contains any enforceable provision prohibiting the grant of
a security interest in any Grantor’s interest therein (including any provision stating that such
grant would constitute a default under, or give rise to the right to terminate, such agreement),
such Grantor shall use good faith commercially reasonable efforts to secure the consent to the
granting of such security interest from each counterparty thereto within 30 days of any request by
Collateral Agent to do so; provided, however, that if the applicable counterparty is an Affiliate
of such Grantor, such Grantor shall be required to secure the consent of such Affiliate to the
granting of a security interest within 30 days of Collateral Agent’s request; and

          (l) Other Actions as to Any and All Collateral. Each Grantor shall promptly (and in
any event within five (5) Business Days of acquiring or obtaining such Collateral) notify
Collateral Agent in writing upon (i) acquiring or otherwise obtaining any Collateral after the date
hereof consisting of Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, Intellectual Property Licenses, Investment
Related Property, Chattel Paper (electronic, tangible or otherwise), documents (as defined in
Article 9 of the UCC), promissory notes (as defined in the UCC), or instruments (as defined in the
UCC) or (ii) any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral being or becoming
evidenced after the date hereof by any Chattel Paper, documents, promissory notes, or instruments
and, in each such case upon the request of Collateral Agent and in accordance with Section
8 hereof, promptly execute such other documents, or if applicable, deliver such Chattel

15

 

Paper, other documents or certificates evidencing any such Investment Related Property in
accordance with Section 6 hereof and do such other acts or things deemed necessary or
desirable by Collateral Agent to protect Collateral Agent’s Security Interest therein.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Grantors shall not be required to
deliver any document or certificate or take any further action to perfect the security interest in
the Equity Interests of CoBank, ACB, so long as such Investments are not acquired through the
expenditure of any cash or other assets of any Grantor, other than a one time membership fee in an
amount not to exceed $1,000.

     7. Relation to Other Security Documents. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
read and construed with the other Loan Documents and the other Senior Note Documents referred to
below in the manner so indicated.

          (a) Credit Agreement; Indenture. In the event of any conflict between any provision in
this Agreement and a provision in the Credit Agreement with respect to the rights and interests of
the Lender Group, such provision of this Agreement shall control. In the event of any conflict
between any provision in this Agreement and a provision in the Indenture with respect to the rights
and interests of the Trustee or the Senior Note Holders, such provision of this Agreement shall
control. In the event of any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and a provision in
any Additional Loan and Notes Agreement (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to
the rights and interests of any Additional Loan and Notes Secured Parties (as defined in the
Intercreditor Agreement) such provision of this Agreement shall control.

          (b) Patent, Trademark, Copyright Security Agreements. The provisions of the Copyright
Security Agreements, Trademark Security Agreements, and Patent Security Agreements are supplemental
to the provisions of this Agreement, and nothing contained in the Copyright Security Agreements,
Trademark Security Agreements, or the Patent Security Agreements shall limit any of the rights or
remedies of Collateral Agent hereunder.

     8. Further Assurances.

          (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the request of Collateral Agent, at such
Grantor’s own expense, such Grantor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and
documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary to perfect or that Collateral Agent
may reasonably request in order to perfect and protect, any Security Interest granted or purported
to be granted hereby or that may be necessary to enable Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce
its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any of the Collateral.

          (b) Each Grantor authorizes the filing by Collateral Agent of financing or continuation
statements, or amendments thereto, and such Grantor will execute and deliver to Collateral Agent
such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or as Collateral Agent may request, in order
to perfect and preserve the Security Interest granted or purported to be granted hereby.

          (c) Each Grantor authorizes Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time to file,
transmit, or communicate, as applicable, financing statements and amendments (i)

16

 

describing the Collateral as “all personal property of debtor”, “all assets of debtor”, “all
assets of the Debtor, whether now existing or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect, (ii)
describing the Collateral as being of equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, or (iii) that
contain any information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing
office acceptance. Each Grantor also hereby ratifies any and all financing statements or
amendments previously filed by Collateral Agent in any jurisdiction.

          (d) Each Grantor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or
amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement filed in connection with
this Agreement without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent, subject to such Grantor’s
rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the UCC.

     9. FCC Licenses; State PUC Licenses; Related Collateral.

          (a) Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder (and the rights of any receiver appointed by reason of
the exercise of remedies hereunder) with respect to the FCC Licenses and the State PUC Licenses and
any Collateral subject to such FCC Licenses and State PUC Licenses, are expressly subject to, and
limited by any obligations and/or restrictions imposed by, the Communications Act and State
Telecommunication Laws, as applicable. Prior to the exercise by Collateral Agent (or any receiver
appointed by reason of the exercise of remedies hereunder) of any power, rights, privilege, or
remedy pursuant to this Agreement which requires any consent, approval, or authorization of the FCC
or any other Governmental Authority, Grantors, at the request of Collateral Agent, will execute and
deliver, or will cause the execution and delivery of, all applications, certificates, instruments,
and other documents and papers that Collateral Agent determines may be required to obtain such
consent, approval, or authorization. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each such
Grantor will promptly upon request by Collateral Agent (or any such receiver so appointed) execute
and deliver the appropriate portions of applications to the FCC or any other Governmental Authority
for its consent to the assignment of or the direct or indirect transfer of control of the FCC
Licenses and State PUC Licenses issued to such Grantor and/or any Collateral subject to such FCC
Licenses and State PUC Licenses and use its commercially reasonable efforts, upon the request of
Collateral Agent (or any receiver so appointed) to assist in obtaining from the FCC or such other
Governmental Authority the necessary consent, approval and authorization, if any, for the
assignment of or the direct or indirect transfer of control of such FCC Licenses, such State PUC
Licenses, and any Collateral subject to the such FCC Licenses or State PUC Licenses to Collateral
Agent or its designee upon or following acceleration of the payment of the Secured Obligations.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement but without waiving
or limiting any obligations of any Grantor hereunder, neither Collateral Agent nor any receiver
appointed by reason of the exercise of remedies hereunder shall control, supervise, direct, or
manage, or attempt to control, supervise, direct, or manage, the business of any Grantor, in any
case that would constitute or result in any assignment of any FCC License or State PUC License or
any Collateral subject to such FCC Licenses or State PUC Licenses, or a direct or indirect transfer
of control of any Grantor, any FCC License or any State PUC License, whether de jure or de facto,
if such assignment or such direct or indirect transfer of control would require under the
Communications Laws or State Telecommunications Laws (including the

17

 

written rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) the prior approval of the FCC or any PUC
without first obtaining such approval.

          (c) Each Grantor agrees to take any action which Collateral Agent may request in order to
obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to Collateral Agent by this Agreement,
including the use of its commercially reasonable efforts to assist in obtaining approval of the FCC
or any other Governmental Authority for any action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement
which is then required by law, and specifically, without limitation, upon request following the
occurrence of an Event of Default, to prepare, sign, and file (or cause to be prepared, signed, and
filed) with the FCC or any PUC any portion of any application or applications for consent to the
assignment or the direct or indirect transfer of control of the FCC Licenses or State PUC Licenses
or any Collateral subject to such FCC Licenses or State PUC Licenses required to be signed by such
Grantor and necessary or appropriate under the Communications Laws or State Telecommunications
Laws (including the written rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) for approval of (i) any
sale or transfer of any of the capital stock or other Collateral of such Grantor or any Pledged
Company or (ii) any direct or indirect transfer of control of Grantor or any Pledged Company or
any FCC License or any State PUC License held by such Grantor or any Pledged Company.

     10. Collateral Agent’s Right to Perform Contracts. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent (or its designee) may proceed to perform any
and all of the obligations of any Grantor contained in any contract, lease, or other agreement and
exercise any and all rights of any Grantor therein contained as fully as such Grantor itself could.

     11. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably
appoints Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such
Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Collateral Agent
may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including:

          (a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and
receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with the Accounts or any other
Collateral of such Grantor;

          (b) to receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, Negotiable
Collateral or Chattel Paper;

          (c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which Collateral Agent
may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral of such Grantor or
otherwise to enforce the rights of Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

          (d) to repair, alter, or supply goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the
purchase order of any Person obligated to such Grantor in respect of any Account of such Grantor;

18

 

          (e) to use any Equipment, fixtures, furniture, machinery, labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade
names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, Intellectual Property Licenses,
advertising matter or other industrial or intellectual property rights, in advertising for sale and
selling Inventory and other Collateral and to collect any amounts due under Accounts, contracts or
Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor; and

          (f) Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have the right, but shall not be
obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights and
Intellectual Property Licenses and, if Collateral Agent shall commence any such suit, the
appropriate Grantor shall, at the request of Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and
execute any and all proper documents required by Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement.

     To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact
shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an
interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.

     12. Collateral Agent May Perform. If any of Grantors fails to perform any agreement
contained herein (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods) at such time as an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance
of, such agreement, and the expenses of Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be
payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors.

     13. Collateral Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred on Collateral Agent hereunder are
solely to protect Collateral Agent’s interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, and shall not impose any duty upon Collateral Agent to exercise any such powers. Except
for the safe custody of any Collateral in Collateral Agent’s (or its agents’ or bailees’)
possession or control and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Collateral
Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to
preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Collateral
Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any
Collateral in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to
that which Collateral Agent accords its own property.

     14. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. At any
time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent or
Collateral Agent’s designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts,
General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral have been assigned to Collateral Agent,
for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or that Collateral Agent has a security interest therein,
and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral directly, and any
collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the
Loan Documents and the Senior Note Documents.

     15. Disposition of Pledged Interests by Collateral Agent. None of the Pledged
Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests
hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof will be, registered or qualified under the
various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an
Event of

19

 

Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack
of such registration. Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition,
Collateral Agent may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further
understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests
than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state
securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if
Collateral Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause the Pledged
Interests or any portion thereof to be sold at a private sale, Collateral Agent shall have the
right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm
(but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and the failure to do so shall not be considered in
determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer
the Pledged Interest or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable
at the private sale thereof; and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that Collateral
Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.

     16. Voting Rights.

          (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Collateral
Agent may, at its option, and with prior notice to any Grantor, and in addition to all rights and
remedies available to Collateral Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise,
exercise all voting rights, and all other ownership or consensual rights in respect of the Pledged
Interests owned by such Grantor, but under no circumstances is Collateral Agent obligated by the
terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Collateral Agent duly exercises its
right to vote any of such Pledged Interests, each Grantor hereby appoints Collateral Agent, such
Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Interests in
any manner Collateral Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be
submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The
power-of-attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

          (b) For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it,
such Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Collateral
Agent, vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would (i)
affect the grant, perfection or priority of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent and the
Secured Parties, (ii) materially diminish the value of the Collateral, taken as a whole, or (iii)
affect the ability of the Collateral Agent or any of the Secured Parties to realize or foreclose on
the Collateral.

     17. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

          (a) Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights
and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents, in the other Senior Note Documents
or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the
UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or any other Applicable Law.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such
event, Collateral Agent without demand of performance or other demand,

20

 

advertisement or notice of any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of
public or private sale) to or upon any of Grantors or any other Person (all and each of which
demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by
the UCC or any other Applicable Law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the
Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own
expense and upon request of Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as
directed by Collateral Agent and make it available to Collateral Agent at one or more locations
where such Grantor regularly maintains Inventory or such other location as Collateral Agent may
request, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof
in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Collateral Agent’s offices or
elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Collateral Agent may deem commercially
reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at
least ten (10) days notice to any of Grantors 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 and
specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition”
within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make
any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. 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.

          (b) Collateral Agent is hereby granted a non-exclusive license or other right to use, without
liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights,
Intellectual Property Licenses, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks,
service marks and advertising matter, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, other industrial or
Intellectual Property, Equipment, fixtures, furniture, machinery or any property of a similar
nature, whether owned by any of Grantors or with respect to which any of Grantors have rights under
license, sublicense, or other agreements, as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale,
advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and
all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of Collateral Agent in each case, to the extent
permitted under applicable licenses or as permitted under Applicable Law.

          (c) Any cash held by Collateral Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by
Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any
part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in
the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy
all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for
any such deficiency.

          (d) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arose out of one or more
commercial transactions, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing
Collateral Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a
hearing. Collateral Agent shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, have the right to the
appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby
consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantor may have
thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by Collateral Agent.

21

 

     18. Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of Collateral Agent as
provided for in this Agreement, in the other Loan Documents, in the other Senior Note Documents or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and
concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this
Agreement, in the other Loan Documents, in the other Senior Note Documents or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the
exercise by Collateral Agent, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not
preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Collateral Agent of any or all such other rights,
powers, or remedies.

     19. Marshaling. Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or
future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances
of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or
other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder
and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and
in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it
lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling
of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Collateral Agent’s rights and
remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the
Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of
the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that
it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

     20. Indemnity and Expenses.

          (a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify Collateral Agent and each Secured Party from and against
all claims, lawsuits and liabilities (including attorneys’ fees) arising out of or resulting from
this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement), any other Loan Document or any other
Senior Note Document to which such Grantor is a party, except claims, losses or liabilities
resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification as
determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision
shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Indenture and the
repayment of the Secured Obligations.

          (b) Grantors, jointly and severally, shall, upon demand, pay to Collateral Agent all the
reasonable, documented expenses which Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the
administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or, upon an
Event of Default, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral in
accordance with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other Senior Note Documents, (iii)
the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Collateral Agent hereunder or (iv) the failure
by any of Grantors to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

     21. Merger, Amendments; Etc. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS AND THE OTHER SENIOR NOTE DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES

22

 

WITH RESPECT TO THE MATTERS ADDRESSED HEREIN AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS
BETWEEN THE PARTIES. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure
by any of Grantors herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment of any provision of
this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Collateral
Agent and each of Grantors to which such amendment applies.

     22. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to Collateral Agent at its address
specified in the Credit Agreement, and to any of the Grantors at their respective addresses
specified in the Credit Agreement or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated
by such party in a written notice to the other party.

     23. Continuing Security Interest: Assignments under Credit Agreement and Indenture.
This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain
in full force and effect until the Obligations and the Senior Note Indebtedness have been repaid in
full in cash, or otherwise satisfied to the satisfaction of the Secured Parties, in accordance with
the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Credit Agreement, and the Indenture, and the
Revolving Loan Commitment has expired or has been terminated, (b) be binding upon each of Grantors,
and their respective successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable
by, Collateral Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender or Senior Note Holder may, in accordance with the
provisions of the Credit Agreement or the Indenture, as applicable, assign or otherwise transfer
all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including all or any
portion of the Revolving Loan Commitments, the Loans owing to it and any Revolving Loan Notes held
by it), the Indenture or the notes issued under the Indenture, as applicable, to any other Person,
and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof
granted to such Lender or Senior Note Holder, as applicable, herein or otherwise. (x) Upon
repayment in full in cash, or other satisfaction to the satisfaction of the Secured Parties, of the
Secured Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Credit
Agreement, and the Indenture, and the expiration or termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment,
the Security Interest granted hereby on all of the Collateral shall, and (y) upon the sale,
transfer or other disposition to a non-Grantor of any portion of the Collateral (including Equity
Interests in a Grantor), which sale, transfer or disposition is permitted by the Credit Agreement
and the Indenture, the Security Interest granted hereby on all of such sold, transferred or
disposed Collateral (and, in the case of a sale, transfer or a disposition of Equity Interests in a
Grantor other than a Borrower, that results in such Grantor no longer being a Subsidiary of any
Borrower, the Security Interest granted hereby on all of the Collateral in and to which such
Grantor has any right, title or interest), shall, in each case, automatically terminate,
all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights
to the Collateral (or such portion thereof) shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled
thereto. At such time, Collateral Agent will authorize the filing of appropriate termination
statements to evidence the termination of such Security Interests to the extent described above.
At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such

23

 

termination, Collateral Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Pledged Collateral or other
Collateral then held by Collateral Agent hereunder in which the Security Interest has been
terminated, and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably
request to evidence such termination. Except as provided above, no transfer or renewal, extension,
assignment, or termination of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, the
Indenture, any other Senior Note Document or any other instrument or document executed and
delivered by any Grantor to Collateral Agent nor any additional Advances or other loans made by
Collateral Agent or any Lender to the Borrower, nor the taking of further security, nor the
retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by Collateral Agent, nor any
other act of any Secured Party shall release any of Grantors from any obligation, except a release
or discharge executed in writing by Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of the
Credit Agreement and the Indenture. Collateral Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is
in writing and signed by Collateral Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver
by Collateral Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the
exercise of any such right or remedy which Collateral Agent would otherwise have had on any other
occasion.

     24. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

          (a) THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO TAKE EFFECT AS A SEALED INSTRUMENT AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          (b) FOR PURPOSES OF ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY COLLATERAL AGENT WITH RESPECT TO
THIS AGREEMENT, EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL
AND STATE COURTS SITTING IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES AND APPOINTS,
AS ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE BORROWER, OR SUCH
OTHER PERSON AS SUCH GRANTOR SHALL DESIGNATE HEREAFTER BY WRITTEN NOTICE GIVEN TO COLLATERAL AGENT.
THE CONSENT TO JURISDICTION HEREIN SHALL NOT BE EXCLUSIVE. THE SECURED PARTIES SHALL FOR ALL
PURPOSES AUTOMATICALLY, AND WITHOUT ANY ACT ON THEIR PART, BE ENTITLED TO TREAT SUCH DESIGNEE OF
EACH GRANTOR AS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT TO RECEIVE FOR AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH GRANTOR SERVICE OF WRITS,
OR SUMMONS OR OTHER LEGAL PROCESS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WHICH SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED EFFECTIVE
PERSONAL SERVICE ON SUCH GRANTOR SERVED WHEN DELIVERED, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH AGENT GIVES NOTICE TO
SUCH GRANTOR; AND DELIVERY OF SUCH SERVICE TO ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE WHEN
PERSONALLY DELIVERED OR THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER MAILING BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL
ADDRESSED TO SUCH AUTHORIZED AGENT. EACH GRANTOR FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF
PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR
CERTIFIED MAIL TO SUCH GRANTOR AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE
THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER SUCH

24

 

MAILING. IN THE EVENT THAT, FOR ANY REASON, SUCH AGENT OR ITS SUCCESSORS SHALL NO LONGER
SERVE AS AGENT OF EACH GRANTOR TO RECEIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EACH GRANTOR
SHALL SERVE AND ADVISE COLLATERAL AGENT THEREOF SO THAT AT ALL TIMES EACH GRANTOR WILL MAINTAIN AN
AGENT TO RECEIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK ON BEHALF OF SUCH GRANTOR WITH RESPECT
TO THIS AGREEMENT, ALL OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ALL OTHER SENIOR NOTE DOCUMENTS AND THE BANK PRODUCTS
DOCUMENTS. IN THE EVENT THAT, FOR ANY REASON, SERVICE OF LEGAL PROCESS CANNOT BE MADE IN THE
MANNER DESCRIBED ABOVE, SUCH SERVICE MAY BE MADE IN SUCH MANNER AS PERMITTED BY LAW.

          (c) EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT WOULD MAKE NOW OR HEREAFTER FOR
THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT
BROUGHT IN THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN
INCONVENIENT FORUM.

          (d) EACH GRANTOR AND EACH SECURED PARTY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW WAIVES, AND
OTHERWISE AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY COURT AND IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY TYPE IN WHICH ANY GRANTOR, ANY SECURED PARTY OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE
SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS IS A PARTY, AS TO ALL MATTERS AND THINGS ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT
OF THIS AGREEMENT.

     25. New Subsidiaries. Pursuant to Section 6.18 of the Credit Agreement and Section
4.08 of the Indenture, certain new direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiaries (whether by acquisition
or creation) of a Grantor may from time to time be required to enter into this Agreement by
executing and delivering in favor of Collateral Agent a supplement to this Agreement in the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto. Upon the execution and delivery of Exhibit A by any such
new Domestic Subsidiary, such Domestic Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same
force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any
instrument adding an additional Grantor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent
of any Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in
full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor hereunder.

     26. Collateral Agent. Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit
conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Collateral Agent” shall be a reference to Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

25

 

     27. Miscellaneous.

          (a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on
separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an
original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method
of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of
this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or
other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this
Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the
validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

          (b) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

          (c) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in
connection with the interpretation of any provision hereof.

          (d) The pronouns used herein shall include, when appropriate, either gender and both singular
and plural, and the grammatical construction of sentences shall conform thereto.

          (e) Unless the context of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Senior Note
Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to
the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the
term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase
“and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Senior Note Document refer to this Agreement, such
other Loan Document or such other Senior Note Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to
any particular provision of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such other Senior Note
Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein
are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement, in any other
Loan Document or any other Senior Note Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall
include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements,
substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any
restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals,
replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). Any reference herein, in
any other Loan Document or any other Senior Note Document to the satisfaction or repayment in full
of the Obligations and the Senior Note Indebtedness shall mean the repayment in full in cash (or
cash collateralization in accordance with the terms hereof) of all Obligations and the Senior Note
Indebtedness other than unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations and Senior Note
Indebtedness. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s
successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein, in any other Loan Document
or any other Senior Note Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record and any Record
so transmitted shall

26

 

constitute a representation and warranty as to the accuracy and completeness of the
information contained therein.

if originally named therein as a “Grantor” and each New Grantor hereby (a) agrees to all of the
terms and provisions of the Security Agreement applicable to it as a “Grantor” thereunder and (b)
represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a “Grantor”

     2. Each New Grantor represents and warrants to the Secured Parties that this Supplement has
been duly executed and delivered by such New Grantor and constitutes its legal, valid and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other

be an original, but all such separate counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument. Delivery of a counterpart hereof by facsimile transmission or by other electronic

others, that Grantors shall have executed and delivered to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the

continuing security interest in all Collateral, whether or not listed on Schedule I.

 

 

     6. COUNTERPARTS. This Copyright Security Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such separate counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. In proving this Copyright Security
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Senior Note Document in any judicial proceedings,

instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions,
modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and
thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes,
extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set
forth herein). Any reference herein to the satisfaction or repayment in full of the Obligations
and the Senior Note Indebtedness shall mean the repayment in full in cash (or cash
collateralization in accordance with the terms hereof) of all Obligations and Senior Note
Indebtedness other than unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations and Senior Note
Indebtedness. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s
successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein, in any other Loan Document
or in any other Senior Note Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record and any
Record so transmitted shall constitute a representation and warranty as to the accuracy and
completeness of the information contained therein.

accommodations available to the Borrower from time to time pursuant to the terms and conditions
thereof;

     WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of the date hereof (as amended,
restated, supplemented, Refinanced, in whole or in part, replaced or otherwise modified from time
to time, the “Indenture”), by and among the Borrower, the Guarantors and The Bank of New
York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. , as indenture trustee for the holders of the Senior Note

Secured Parties (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the “Secured Parties”), the
Borrowers issued or propose to issue their 10.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 in the original

     WHEREAS, the Secured Parties are willing to make the financial accommodations to the Borrower
as provided for in the Credit Agreement and the Indenture, but only upon the condition, among
others, that Grantors shall have executed and delivered to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Security Agreement, Grantors are required to execute and deliver to
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured parties, this Trademark Security Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Grantors hereby agree as follows:

 

 

     1. DEFINED TERMS. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have
the meanings given to them in the Security Agreement or, if not defined therein, in the Credit
Agreement.

     2. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST IN TRADEMARK COLLATERAL. Each Grantor hereby grants to
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing first priority security
interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following, whether
presently existing or hereafter created or acquired (collectively, the “Trademark
Collateral”):

          (a) all of its Trademarks (other than any intent-to-use United States Trademark application
for which an amendment to allege use or statement of use has not been filed and accepted by the
United States Patent and Trademark Office) and Trademark Intellectual Property Licenses to which it
is a party including those referred to on Schedule I hereto;

          (b) all goodwill, trade secrets, proprietary or confidential information, technical
information, procedures, formulae, quality control standards, designs, operating and training
manuals, customer lists, and other General Intangibles with respect to the foregoing;

          (c) all reissues, continuations or extensions of the foregoing;

          (d) all goodwill of the business connected with the use of, and symbolized by, each Trademark
and each Trademark Intellectual Property License; and

          (e) all proceeds of the foregoing, including any claim by such Grantor against third parties
for past, present or future (i) infringement or dilution of any Trademark or any Trademark licensed
under any Intellectual Property License or (ii) injury to the goodwill associated with any
Trademark or any Trademark licensed under any Intellectual Property License.

     3. SECURITY FOR OBLIGATIONS. This Trademark Security Agreement and the Security
Interest created hereby secures the payment and performance of all the Secured Obligations, whether
now existing or arising hereafter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this
Trademark Security Agreement secures the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the
Obligations and the Senior Note Indebtedness and would be owed by Grantors, or any of them, to
Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties, or any of them, whether or not they are unenforceable or not
allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Grantor.

     4. SECURITY AGREEMENT. The security interests granted pursuant to this Trademark
Security Agreement are granted in conjunction with the security interests granted to Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to the Security Agreement. Each Grantor
hereby acknowledges and affirms that the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent with respect to
the security interest in the Trademark Collateral made and granted hereby are more fully set forth
in the Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein
as if fully set forth herein.

     5. AUTHORIZATION TO SUPPLEMENT. If any Grantor shall obtain rights to any new
trademarks, the provisions of this Trademark Security Agreement shall automatically apply thereto.
Grantors shall give prompt notice in writing to Collateral Agent with respect to any such new
trademarks or renewal or extension of any trademark registration. Without limiting Grantors’
obligations under this Section 5, Grantors hereby authorize Collateral Agent unilaterally
to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule I to include any such new trademark rights of
Grantors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure to so modify this Trademark Security Agreement
or amend Schedule I shall in any way affect, invalidate or detract from Collateral Agent’s
continuing security interest in all Collateral, whether or not listed on Schedule I.

     6. COUNTERPARTS. This Trademark Security Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such separate counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. In proving this Trademark Security
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Senior Note Document in any judicial proceedings,
it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the
party against whom such enforcement is sought. Any signatures delivered by a party by facsimile
transmission or other electronic transmission shall be deemed an original signature hereto.

Loan Document or any other Senior Note Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the
plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes”
and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the

Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Trademark Security Agreement, in any
other Loan Document, or in any other Senior Note Document to any agreement, instrument, or document

to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals,
replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). Any reference herein to
the satisfaction or repayment in full of the Obligations and the Senior Note Indebtedness shall
mean the repayment in full in cash (or cash collateralization in accordance with the terms hereof)
of all Obligations and Senior Note Indebtedness other than unasserted contingent indemnification
Obligations and Senior Note Indebtedness. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to
include such Person’s successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein, in
