provided that immediately upon the amendment of the Internal Revenue Code to allow the pledge of a greater percentage of the voting power of capital stock in a foreign subsidiary without adverse tax consequences, the Collateral shall include, and the security interest granted by the Borrower shall attach to, such greater percentage of capital stock of each foreign subsidiary; and provided, further, that in no event shall the Collateral include capital stock of a foreign subsidiary or controlled foreign corporation to the extent that the grant of a security interest therein would require the approval of, or consultation with, a local securities regulator or other regulatory or governmental authority, or otherwise result in any burdensome undertaking or obligation by the Borrower, pursuant to local law or otherwise; (c) any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) ; (d) for avoidance of doubt, equity interests, general partnership interests or assets of Funds, including any assets of a Fund held by Borrower or any assets of Borrower , to the extent the grant of a security interest therein would violate or otherwise result in a default under any organizational or governing document of any Fund or the general partner thereof; (e) any rights or interests in Funds required or deemed necessary to be held by Borrower pursuant to the terms of the applicable Fund organizational documents, any related agreement or applicable law, rule or regulation; (f) equity interests, including general partnership interests, in any joint venture or other non-wholly owned subsidiary to the extent the grant of a security interest therein would violate or otherwise result in a default under any organizational document, governing document or agreement among equity holders of such joint venture or non-wholly owned subsidiary or require the consent of any other equity holder thereof or other third party (unless (x) such document, agreement or requirement of a consent would be rendered ineffective with respect to the creation of the security interest hereunder 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 (including the Bankruptcy Code) or principles of equity, and (y) no adverse consequence to the Borrower under such organizational document, governing document or agreement among equity holders would result from such grant of security);

(h) 

those assets as to which the Lender and Borrower reasonably agree in writing that the cost of obtaining such a security interest or perfection thereof is excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lender of the security to be afforded thereby; (i) capital assets subject to capital leases or purchase money liens, in each case to the extent (x) such capital lease or purchase money lien is permitted hereunder and (y) a lien on such capital assets is prohibited by the documents providing for the capital lease or purchase money lien; or (j) payroll accounts and escrow accounts.

provided, however, that the Collateral shall include (and such security interest shall attach) immediately at such time as the contractual or legal prohibition shall no longer be applicable and to the extent severable, shall attach immediately to any portion of such lease, license, contract or agreement not subject to the prohibitions specified in (i) or (ii) above; provided further that the exclusions referred to in clause (a) of this paragraph shall not include any Proceeds of any such lease, license, contract or agreement; (b) in the case of a foreign subsidiary that is treated as a “controlled foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, any of the outstanding capital stock of such foreign subsidiary entitled to vote representing in excess of 65% of the voting power of all classes of capital stock of such foreign subsidiary entitled to vote, so long as a pledge in excess of 65% of the voting power of such foreign subsidiary would result in adverse tax consequences to Borrower or its beneficial owners under Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor provision); provided that immediately upon the amendment of the Internal Revenue Code to allow the pledge of a greater percentage of the voting power of capital stock in a foreign subsidiary without adverse tax consequences, the Collateral shall include, and the security interest granted by the Borrower shall attach to, such greater percentage of capital stock of each foreign subsidiary; and provided, further, that in no event shall the Collateral include capital stock of a foreign subsidiary or controlled foreign corporation to the extent that the grant of a security interest therein would require the approval of, or consultation with, a local securities regulator or other regulatory or governmental authority, or otherwise result in any burdensome undertaking or obligation by the Borrower, pursuant to local law or otherwise; (c) any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) ; (d) for avoidance of doubt, equity interests, general partnership interests or assets of Funds, including any assets of a Fund held by Borrower or any assets of Borrower , to the extent the grant of a security interest therein would violate or otherwise result in a default under any organizational or governing document of any Fund or the general partner thereof; (e) any rights or interests in Funds required or deemed necessary to be held by Borrower pursuant to the terms of the applicable Fund organizational documents, any related agreement or applicable law, rule or regulation; (f) equity interests, including general partnership interests, in any joint venture or other non-wholly owned subsidiary to the extent the grant of a security interest therein would violate or otherwise result in a default under any organizational document, governing document or agreement among equity holders of such joint venture or non-wholly owned subsidiary or require the consent of any other equity holder thereof or other third party (unless (x) such document, agreement or requirement of a consent would be rendered ineffective with respect to the creation of the security interest hereunder 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 (including the Bankruptcy Code) or principles of equity, and (y) no adverse consequence to the Borrower under such organizational document, governing document or agreement among equity holders would result from such grant of security);

(h) those assets as to which the Lender and Borrower reasonably agree in writing that the cost of obtaining such a security interest or perfection thereof is excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lender of the security to be afforded thereby; (i) capital assets subject to capital leases or purchase money liens, in each case to the extent (x) such capital lease or purchase money lien is permitted hereunder and (y) a lien on such capital assets is prohibited by the documents providing for the capital lease or purchase money lien; or (j) payroll accounts and escrow accounts.
