promptly to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the

such Pledged Collateral hereunder, the sale or disposition thereof pursuant
hereto or the exercise by the Collateral Agent of rights and remedies
hereunder;

 

(e)           each of the Grantors
has the power and authority to pledge the Pledged Collateral pledged by it
hereunder in the manner hereby done or contemplated;

shall not be represented by a certificate.

 

SECTION 2.05       Registration in Nominee Name;

Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall give the
Borrower notice of its intent to exercise such rights, (a) the Collateral
Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and
absolute discretion) to hold the Pledged Securities in its own name as pledgee,
the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent) or the name of the
applicable Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral
Agent, and each Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of
any notices or other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Securities
registered in the name of such Grantor and (b) the Collateral Agent shall have
the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Securities for
certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with
this Agreement.

 

SECTION 2.06       Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest.

 

(a)           Unless and until an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent
shall have notified the Borrower that the rights of the Grantors under this
Section 2.06 are being suspended:

 

(i)            Each Grantor shall
be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and
powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof for any
purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and
the other Loan Documents; provided
that such rights and powers shall not be exercised in any manner that could
materially and adversely affect the rights inuring to a holder of any Pledged
Securities or the rights and remedies of any of the Collateral Agent or the
other Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other
Loan Document or the ability of the Secured Parties to exercise the same.

 

(ii)           The Collateral
Agent shall execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and
delivered to each Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other
instruments as each Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling
such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is
entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (i) above.

 

(iii)          Each Grantor shall
be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal
and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged
Securities to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest,
principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or
distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable Laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or
other distributions that would constitute Pledged Equity or Pledged Debt,
whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the
outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or
received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in
redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or
other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise,

 

6

 

shall be and
become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall
not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but
shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the
benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be forthwith
delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any
necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent).

 

(b)           Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent
shall have notified the Borrower of the suspension of the rights of the
Grantors under paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06, then all rights of any
Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such
Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section
2.06 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the
Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority
to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other
distributions.  All dividends, interest,
principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the
provisions of this Section 2.06 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such
Grantor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent upon demand in
the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably
requested by the Collateral Agent).  Any
and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the
Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon
receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with
the provisions of Section 4.02.  After
all Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Collateral Agent shall
promptly repay to each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest,
principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted
to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 and
that remain in such account.

 

(c)           Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent
shall have notified the Borrower of the suspension of the rights of the
Grantors under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, then all rights of any
Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled
to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, and the
obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section
2.06, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the
Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority
to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed
by the Required Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to
time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the
Grantors to exercise such rights.  After
all Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Grantor shall have the
exclusive right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that
such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of
paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06.

 

(d)           Any notice given by
the Collateral Agent to the Borrower suspending the rights of the Grantors
under paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 (i) shall be given in writing, (ii)
may be given with respect to one or more of the Grantors at the same or
different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under
paragraph (a)(i) or paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 in part without
suspending all such rights (as specified by the Collateral Agent in its sole
and absolute discretion) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the
Collateral Agent’s rights

 

7

 

to give additional
notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing.

payment or performance, as the case may be, in full of the Obligations,
including the Guaranties, each Grantor hereby assigns and pledges to the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, and hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns,
for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all right, title or
interest in or to any and all of the following assets and properties now owned
or at any time hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now
has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest
(collectively, the “Article 9 Collateral”):

 

(i)            all property;

 

(ii)           all Accounts;

 

(iii)          all Chattel Paper;

 

(iv)          all Commercial Tort
Claims described on Schedule III from time to time;

 

(v)           all Deposit
Accounts;

 

(vi)          all Documents;

 

(vii)         all Equipment;

 

(viii)        all General
Intangibles;

 

(ix)           all Instruments;

 

(x)            all Inventory;

 

(xi)           all Investment
Property;

 

(xii)          all books and
records pertaining to the Article 9 Collateral; and

 

(xiii)         to the extent not
otherwise included, all Proceeds and products of any and all of the foregoing
and all supporting obligations, collateral security and guarantees given by any
Person with respect to any of the foregoing;

 

provided
that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement
shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (A) motor vehicles the
perfection of a security interest in which is excluded from the Uniform
Commercial Code in the relevant jurisdiction, (B)

any Equity
Interests in any Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Equity Interests of any
Subsidiary acquired pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition financed with
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.03(g) of the Credit Agreement if
such Equity Interests serve as security for such Indebtedness or if the terms
of such Indebtedness prohibit the creation of any other lien on such Equity Interests,
(C) more than 65% of the issued and outstanding voting Equity Interests of any
Foreign Subsidiary or any Equity Interests of any Subsidiary of a Foreign
Subsidiary, (D) any asset with respect to which the Administrative Agent has
confirmed in writing to the Borrower its determination that the costs or other
consequences (including adverse tax consequences) of providing a security
interest in such asset is excessive in view of the benefits to be obtained by
the Secured Parties, or (E) any General Intangible, Investment Property or
other rights of a Grantor arising under any contract, lease, instrument,
license or other document if (but only to the extent that) the grant of a
security interest therein would (x) constitute a violation of a valid and enforceable
restriction in respect of such General Intangible, Investment Property or other
such rights in favor of a third party or under any law, regulation, permit,
order or decree of any Governmental Authority, unless and until all required
consents shall have been obtained (for the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions
described herein shall not include negative pledges or similar undertakings in
favor of a lender or other financial counterparty) or (y) expressly give any
other party in respect of any such contract, lease, instrument, license or
other document, the right to terminate its obligations thereunder; provided, however, that the limitation set forth in clause
(E) above shall not affect, limit, restrict or impair the grant by a Grantor of
a security interest pursuant to this Agreement in any such Collateral to the
extent that an otherwise applicable prohibition or restriction on such grant is
rendered ineffective by any applicable law, including the Uniform Commercial
Code.  Each Grantor shall, if requested
to do so by the Administrative Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain any such required consent that is reasonably obtainable with respect to
Collateral which the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be material.

 

(b)           Each Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction
any initial financing statements (including fixture filings) with respect to
the Article 9 Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that (i)
indicate the Collateral as all assets of such Grantor or words of similar
effect as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (ii)
contain the information required by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or
the analogous legislation of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any
financing statement or amendment, including (A) whether such Grantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to such Grantor and (B) in the case of a financing statement
filed as a fixture filing, a sufficient description of the real property to
which such Article 9 Collateral relates. 
Each Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent
promptly upon request.

 

(c)           The Security
Interest is 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 Article 9
Collateral.

 

SECTION 3.02       Representations and Warranties.  Holdings and the Borrower jointly and
severally represent and warrant, as to themselves and the other Grantors, to
the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties that:

 

9

 

(a)           Each Grantor has
good and valid rights in and title to the Article 9 Collateral with respect to
which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full
power and authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in
such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform
its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the
consent or approval of any other Person other than any consent or approval that
has been obtained.

 

(b)           The Perfection
Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information
set forth therein, including the exact legal name of each Grantor, is correct
and complete in all material respects as of the Closing Date.  The UCC financing statements (including
fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or
registrations prepared by the Collateral Agent based upon the information
provided to the Collateral Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in
each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 2 to the
Perfection Certificate (or specified by notice from the applicable Borrower to
the Collateral Agent after the Closing Date in the case of filings, recordings
or registrations required by Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement), are all the
filings, recordings and registrations that are necessary to establish a legal,
valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the
benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Article 9 Collateral in which
the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in
the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and
possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording,
rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such
jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the
filing of continuation statements and as may be required with respect to
property of the Grantors of the types described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of
Section 9-311(a) of the UCC, which may not be perfected by such filing.

 

(c)           The Security
Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article
9 Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Obligations and (ii)
subject to the filings described in Section 3.02(b), a perfected security
interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected
by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document
in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories
and possessions pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in the relevant
jurisdiction.  The Security Interest is
and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, other
than (i) any nonconsensual Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section
7.01 of the Credit Agreement and has priority as a matter of law and (ii) Liens
expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(d)           The Article 9
Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, except for
Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit
Agreement.  None of the Grantors has
filed or consented to the filing of (i) any financing statement or analogous
document under the New York UCC or any other applicable laws covering any
Article 9 Collateral or (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any
Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering
any Article 9 Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other
office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security
agreement or similar instrument

 

10

 

is still in
effect, except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section
7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(e)           All Commercial Tort
Claims of each Grantor in existence on the date of this Agreement (or on the
date upon which such Grantor becomes a party to this Agreement) are described
on Schedule III hereto.

 

SECTION 3.03       Covenants.

 

(a)           The Borrower agrees
promptly to notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any change (i) in legal
name of any Grantor, (ii) in the identity or type of organization or corporate
structure of any Grantor, or (iii) in the jurisdiction of organization of any
Grantor, in each case, within 10 days of such change.

 

(b)           Each Grantor shall,
at its own expense, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary
to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all Persons and to defend
the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and
the priority thereof against any Lien not expressly permitted pursuant to
Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(c)           Each year, at the
time of delivery of annual financial statements with respect to the preceding
fiscal year pursuant to Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate executed by the chief
financial officer and the chief legal officer of the Borrower setting forth the
information required pursuant to Schedules 1(a), 1(c), 1(e), 1(f), 2(b), 7(a)
and 7(b) of the Perfection Certificate or confirming that there has been no
change in such information since the date of such certificate or the date of
the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 3.03(c).

 

(d)           The Borrower agrees,
on its own behalf and on behalf of each other Grantor, at its own expense, to
execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further
instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may
from time to time reasonably request to better assure, preserve, protect and
perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby,
including the payment of any fees and taxes required in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest
and the filing of any financing statements (including fixture filings) or other
documents in connection herewith or therewith. 
If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Article 9
Collateral that is in excess of $2,000,000 shall be or become evidenced by any
promissory note or other instrument, such note or instrument shall be promptly
pledged and delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, duly endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent.

 

(e)           At its option, the
Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees,
Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on
the Article 9 Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the
Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the
Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by
the Credit Agreement or this Agreement and within a reasonable period of time
after the Collateral Agent has requested that it do so, and each

 

11

 

Grantor jointly and
severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent within 10 days after demand
for any payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the Collateral Agent
pursuant to the foregoing authorization. 
Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor
from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or
any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any
Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security
interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein, in the
other Loan Documents.

 

(f)            If at any time any
Grantor shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or
any other Person, the value of which is in excess of $2,000,000, to secure
payment and performance of an Account, such Grantor shall promptly assign such
security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.  Such assignment need not be filed of public
record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security
interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other
Person granting the security interest.

 

(g)           Each Grantor (rather
than the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party) shall remain liable (as between
itself and any relevant counterparty) to observe and perform all the conditions
and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract,
agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions thereof, and each Grantor jointly and severally
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Secured
Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance.

 

(h)           If any Grantor shall
at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim with a value in excess of $2,000,000,
such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by
such Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent a
security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of
this Agreement pursuant to a document in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

 

(i)            (A) On or prior to
a date that is 120 days after the Closing Date, or such later date as the
Collateral Agent may reasonably determine, after any request for extension by
the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall receive share certificates for Encore
Orthopedics FSC Limited, together with stock powers duly executed in blank or
other instruments of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent
and such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably
request if such Subsidiary has not been liquidated or dissolved by such date;
and (B) on or prior to a date that is 30 days after the Closing Date, or such
later date as the Collateral Agent may reasonably determine, after any requests
for extension by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall receive a schedule
certified by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, setting forth the names and
addresses of all persons and entities other than each Loan Party, such as
lessees, consignees, warehousemen or purchasers of chattel paper, which have
possession or are intended to have possession of any of the Collateral with a
book value in excess of $500,000, including instruments, chattel paper,
inventory or equipment.

 

SECTION 3.04       Other Actions.  In order to further insure the attachment,
perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce,
the Security Interest,

 

12

 

each Grantor agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to
take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral:

 

(a)           Instruments.  If any Grantor shall at any time hold or
acquire any Instruments constituting Collateral and evidencing an amount in
excess of $2,000,000, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver
the same to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in
blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

 

(b)           Investment Property.  Except to the extent otherwise provided in
Article II, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated
securities, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same
to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, accompanied by
such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the
Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.  If any securities now or hereafter acquired
by any Grantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Grantor or its nominee
directly by the issuer thereof, upon the Collateral Agent’s request and
following the occurrence of an Event of Default such Grantor shall promptly
notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable
request, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Collateral Agent, either (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with
instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further
consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (ii) arrange for the Collateral
Agent to become the registered owner of the securities.  If any securities, whether certificated or
uncertificated, or other investment property are held by any Grantor or its
nominee through a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, upon the
Collateral Agent’s request and following the occurrence of an Event of Default,
such Grantor shall immediately notify the Collateral Agent thereof and at the
Collateral Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent shall either (i)
cause such securities intermediary or (as the case may be) commodity
intermediary to agree to comply with entitlement orders or other instructions
from the Collateral Agent to such securities intermediary as to such security
entitlements, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account
of any commodity contract as directed by the Collateral Agent to such commodity
intermediary, in each case without further consent of any Grantor or such
nominee, or (ii) in the case of financial assets or other Investment Property
held through a securities intermediary, arrange for the Collateral Agent to
become the entitlement holder with respect to such Investment Property, with the
Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Collateral Agent, to
exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such Investment
Property.  The Collateral Agent agrees
with each of the Grantors that the Collateral Agent shall not give any such
entitlement orders or instructions or directions to any such issuer, securities
intermediary or commodity intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to
the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by any Grantor, unless an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  The provisions of this paragraph shall not
apply to any financial assets credited to a securities account for which the
Collateral Agent is the securities intermediary.

 

13

 

(c)           Commercial
Tort Claims.  If any Grantor
shall at any time after the date of this Agreement acquire a Commercial Tort
Claim in an amount (taking the greater of the aggregate claimed damages
thereunder or the reasonably estimated value thereof) of $2,000,000 or more,
such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a writing
signed by such Grantor and provide supplements to Schedule III describing the
details thereof and shall grant to the Collateral Agent a security interest
therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement.

 

(d)           Letter of
Credit Rights.  If any Grantor
is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit with a stated amount of
$2,000,000 or more, the proceeds of which have not otherwise been previously
perfected as a Supporting Obligation of such Grantor by the filing of a UCC
Financing Statement described in Section 3.02(b), such Grantor shall promptly
notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the request of the Collateral
Agent, such Grantor shall, pursuant to an agreement substantially similar to
the form of Consent to Assignment of Letter of Credit Rights attached hereto as
Exhibit III or otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) arrange for
the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an
assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under such
letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee
beneficiary of such letter of credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in
each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to
be applied as provided in this Agreement after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default.

 

ARTICLE IV

Remedies

 

SECTION 4.01       Remedies Upon Default.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Collateral Agent
shall have the right to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party
with respect to the Obligations under the Uniform Commercial Code or other
applicable law and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor
agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent
forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral
Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place and time to be
designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both
parties; (ii) occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted,
leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is
assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights
and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in
respect of such occupation; provided
that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with notice
thereof prior to or promptly after such occupancy; (iii) exercise any and all
rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the
Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral; provided that the Collateral Agent shall
provide the applicable Grantor with notice thereof prior to or promptly after
such exercise; and (iv) subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law
and the notice requirements described below, sell or otherwise dispose of all
or any part of the Collateral securing the Obligations at a public or private
sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon
credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem
appropriate.  The Collateral Agent shall
be authorized at any such sale of securities (if it

 

14

 

deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or
purchasers 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 such purchaser at any sale of Collateral
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 appraisal which such Grantor now has or
may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now
existing or hereafter enacted.

 

The Collateral
Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice (which each
Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the
New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s
intention to make any sale of Collateral. 
Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and
place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a
securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to
be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be
offered for sale at such board or exchange. 
Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary
business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and
state in the notice (if any) of such sale. 
At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be
sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent
may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine.  The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated
to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so,
regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been
given.  The Collateral Agent may, without
notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to
be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for
sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place
to which the same was so adjourned.  In
case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for
future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent
until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the
Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or
purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in
case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice.  At any public (or, to the extent permitted by
law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid
for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of
redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said
rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law),
the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on
account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party
from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party
may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such
property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor.  For purposes hereof, a written agreement to
purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale
thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to
such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral
or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the
Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of
Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations paid in full.  As an alternative to exercising the power of
sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or
suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the
Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court
or courts having competent

 

15

 

jurisdiction
or pursuant to a proceeding by a court appointed receiver.  Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 4.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable
standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent
in other jurisdictions.

 

SECTION 4.02       Application of Proceeds.

 

(a)           The Collateral Agent
shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any
Collateral consisting of cash, in accordance with Section 8.04 of the Credit
Agreement as of the Closing Date.

 

The Collateral
Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such
proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement.  Upon any sale of 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.

 

(b)           In making the
determinations and allocations required by this Section 4.02, the Collateral
Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by the Administrative
Agent as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts
outstanding with respect to the Obligations, and the Collateral Agent shall
have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance
on such information; provided
that nothing in this sentence shall prevent any Grantor from contesting any
amounts claimed by any Secured Party in any information so supplied.  All distributions made by the Collateral
Agent pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be (subject to any decree of any
court of competent jurisdiction) final (absent manifest error), and the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the
Administrative Agent of any amounts distributed to it.

 

ARTICLE V

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination

 

SECTION 5.01       Indemnity.  In addition to all such rights of indemnity
and subrogation as the Grantors may have under applicable law (but subject to
Section 5.03), each Borrower agrees that, in the event any assets of any
Grantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Collateral
Document to satisfy in whole or in part an Obligation owed to any Secured
Party, the relevant Borrower shall indemnify such Grantor in an amount equal to
the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold.

 

SECTION 5.02       Contribution and Subrogation.  Each Subsidiary Party (a “Contributing Party”) agrees (subject to Section 5.03) that,
in the event assets of any other Subsidiary Party shall be sold pursuant to any
Collateral Document to satisfy any Obligation owed to any Secured Party, and
such other Subsidiary Party (the “Claiming Party”)
shall not have been fully indemnified by the relevant Borrower as provided in
Section 5.01, the

 

16

 

Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount
equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets,
in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net
worth of the Contributing Party on the date hereof and the denominator shall be
the aggregate net worth of all the Contributing Parties together with the net
worth of the Claiming Party on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Grantor
becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 6.14, the date of the Security
Agreement Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Grantor).  Any Contributing Party making any payment to
a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall be subrogated to the
rights of such Claiming Party to the extent of such payment.

 

SECTION 5.03       Subordination.

 

(a)           Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Grantors under
Sections 5.01 and 5.02 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or
subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to
the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations.  No failure on the part of any Borrower or any
Grantor to make the payments required by Sections 5.01 and 5.02 (or any other
payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit
the obligations and liabilities of any Grantor with respect to its obligations
hereunder, and each Grantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the
obligations of such Grantor hereunder.

 

(b)           Each Grantor hereby
agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and after notice from the Collateral Agent all Indebtedness owed by it
to any Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in
full in cash of the Obligations.

 

ARTICLE VI

Miscellaneous

 

SECTION 6.01       Notices.  All communications and notices hereunder
shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given
as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.  All communications and notices hereunder to
any Subsidiary Party shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided
in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.02       Waivers; Amendment.

 

(a)           No failure or delay
by the Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender in exercising any right
or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power,
or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or power.  The rights and remedies
of the Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or
remedies that they would otherwise have. 
No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure
by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be permitted by

 

17

 

paragraph (b) of
this Section 6.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be
construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Collateral
Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such
Default at the time.  No notice or demand
on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

(b)           Neither this
Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
Collateral Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such
waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required
in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.03       Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses.

 

(a)           The parties hereto
agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its
expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 10.04 of the Credit
Agreement.

 

(b)           Without limitation
of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, the Borrower
agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and the other Indemnitees (as defined
in Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related
expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement or any claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby, or to the Collateral, whether or not any Indemnitee is a
party thereto; provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any Affiliate,
director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of such
Indemnitee.

 

(c)           Any such amounts
payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations secured hereby
and by the other Collateral Documents. 
The provisions of this Section 6.03 shall remain operative and in full
force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any
term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party.  All amounts due under this
Section 6.03 shall be payable within 10 days of written demand therefor.

 

SECTION 6.04       Successors and Assigns.  Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties
hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted
successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and
agreements by or on behalf

 

18

 

of any Grantor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in this
Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors
and assigns.

 

SECTION 6.05       Survival of Agreement.  All covenants, agreements, representations
and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the
certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have
been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the execution and delivery of
the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of
Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any Lender or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may
have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or
warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any
accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under any
Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding
and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

 

SECTION 6.06       Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several
Agreement.  This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Delivery of an executed signature page to
this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission
(i.e., a “PDF” or “TIF”) a shall be as effective as delivery of a manually
signed counterpart of this Agreement. 
This Agreement shall become effective as to any Loan Party when a
counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Loan Party shall have been
delivered to the Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been
executed on behalf of the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding
upon such Loan Party and the Collateral Agent and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Loan Party, the
Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors
and assigns, except that no Loan Party shall have the right to assign or
transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein or in the
Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as
expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement.  This Agreement shall be construed as a
separate agreement with respect to each Loan Party and may be amended,
modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Loan Party
without the approval of any other Loan Party and without affecting the obligations
of any other Loan Party hereunder.

 

SECTION 6.07       Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction.  The parties 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.

 

SECTION 6.08       Right of Set-Off.  In addition to any rights and remedies of the
Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates and each L/C Issuer and its
Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior
notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any

 

19

 

such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on
behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other
Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C
Issuer and its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the
account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and
all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and
its Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter
existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate
shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a
currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer agrees promptly to
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and
application made by such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be; provided,
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
setoff and application.  The rights of
the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer under this Section
6.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of
setoff) that the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such L/C Issuer may
have.

 

SECTION 6.09       Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent
to Service of Process.

 

(a)           This Agreement shall
be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New
York.

 

(b)           Each of the Loan
Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of
New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of
the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in
any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and
each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such
Federal court.  Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment
or in any other manner provided by law. 
Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any
right that the Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document against any Grantor or its properties in the courts of any
jurisdiction.

 

(c)           Each of the Loan
Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it
may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter
have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to
in paragraph (b) of this Section 6.09. 
Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding in any such court.

 

(d)           Each party to this
Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for
notices in Section 6.01.  Nothing in this
Agreement or any other Loan

 

20

 

Document will affect
the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law.

 

SECTION 6.10       WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY
OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK
TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.10.

 

SECTION 6.11       Headings.  Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of
this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.12       Security Interest Absolute.  All rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder,
the Security Interest, the grant of a security interest in the Pledged
Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the
Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of
the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the
foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver
of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or
non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or
waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or
guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that
might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any
Grantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.13       Termination or Release.

 

(a)           This Agreement, the
Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall
terminate with respect to all Obligations (other than (x) obligations under
Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Cash Management
Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification
obligations not yet accrued and payable) when all the outstanding Obligations
have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment
to lend under the Credit Agreement, the L/C Obligations have been reduced to
zero (unless the L/C Obligations shall have been collateralized on terms and
conditions reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer following the
termination of the Commitments)

 

21

 

and the L/C Issuers
have no further obligations to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit
Agreement.

 

(b)           A Subsidiary Party
shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Security
Interest in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Party shall be automatically
released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit
Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Party ceases to be a Subsidiary
or is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Borrower; provided that the Required Lenders shall
have consented to such transaction (to the extent required by the Credit
Agreement) and the terms of such consent did not provide otherwise.

 

(c)           Upon any sale or
other transfer by any Grantor of any Collateral (other than any transfer to
another Guarantor) that is permitted under the Credit Agreement, or upon the
effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest
granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Credit
Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically
released.

 

(d)           In connection with
any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this
Section 6.13, 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 6.13 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the
Collateral Agent.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding
anything to contrary set forth in this Agreement, each Cash Management Bank and
each Hedge Bank by the acceptance of the benefits under this Agreement hereby
acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Security Interests granted under this
Agreement of the Obligations of any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries under any
Secured Hedge Agreement and the Cash Management Obligations shall be
automatically released upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full
of all other Obligations, in each case, unless the Obligations under the
Secured Hedge Agreement or the Cash Management Obligations are due and payable
at such time (it being understood and agreed that this Agreement and the
Security Interests granted herein shall survive solely as to such due and
payable Obligations and until such time as such due and payable Obligations
have been paid in full)  and (ii) any
release of Collateral or of a Grantor, as the case may be, effected in the
manner permitted by this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Hedge
Bank or Cash Management Bank.

 

SECTION 6.14       Additional Restricted Subsidiaries.  Pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit
Agreement, certain Restricted Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties that were not in
existence or not Restricted Subsidiaries on the date of the Credit Agreement
are required to enter in this Agreement as Subsidiary Parties upon becoming
Restricted Subsidiaries.  Upon execution
and delivery by the Collateral Agent and a Restricted Subsidiary of a Security
Agreement Supplement, such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary
Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a
Subsidiary Party herein.  The execution
and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other
Loan Party hereunder.  The rights and
obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this
Agreement.

 

22

 

SECTION 6.15       Collateral Agent Appointed
Attorney-in-Fact.  Each Grantor irrevocably
makes, constitutes and hereby appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers,
employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true
and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) of such Grantor for the purpose of
carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and
executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or
advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof at any time after and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, which appointment is irrevocable and
coupled with an interest.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the
right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
and notice by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower of its intent to exercise
such rights, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s
name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or
deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other
evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to
demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and
releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor
on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send
verifications of Accounts Receivable to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and
prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any
court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any
of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to
settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or
proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require
any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the
Collateral Agent; (h) to make, settle and adjust claims in respect of Article 9
Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on
any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such
policies of insurance, (i) to make all determinations and decisions with
respect thereto and (j) to obtain or maintain the policies of insurance
required by Section 6.07 of the Credit Agreement or paying any premium in whole
or in part relating thereto; and (k) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the
Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes
of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were
the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided that nothing herein contained
shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any
commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any
payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or
notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part
thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property
covered thereby.  The Collateral Agent
and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually
received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and
neither they nor 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 or that of any of their
Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents or
attorneys-in-fact.  All sums disbursed by
the Collateral Agent in connection with this paragraph, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto,
shall be payable, within 10 days of demand, by the Grantors to the Collateral
Agent and shall be additional Obligations secured hereby.

 

SECTION 6.16       General Authority of the Collateral
Agent.  By acceptance of the benefits
of this Agreement and any other Collateral Documents, each Secured Party (whether
or not a signatory hereto) shall be deemed irrevocably (a) to consent to the
appointment of the

 

23

 

Collateral Agent as its agent hereunder and under such other Collateral
Documents, (b) to confirm that the Collateral Agent shall have the authority to
act as the exclusive agent of such Secured Party for the enforcement of any
provisions of this Agreement and such other Collateral Documents against any
Grantor, the exercise of remedies hereunder or thereunder and the giving or
withholding of any consent or approval hereunder or thereunder relating to any
Collateral or any Grantor’s obligations with respect thereto, (c) to agree that
it shall not take any action to enforce any provisions of this Agreement or any
other Collateral Document against any Grantor, to exercise any remedy hereunder
or thereunder or to give any consents or approvals hereunder or thereunder
except as expressly provided in this Agreement or any other Collateral Document
and (d) to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and any other
Collateral Documents.

IN WITNESS
WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and
year first above written.

Exhibit I to the

Security Agreement

 

SUPPLEMENT NO.           
dated as of [  ], to the Security
Agreement dated as of November 3, 2006 (as amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”)
among ENCORE MEDICAL HOLDINGS LLC (“Holdings”), ENCORE
MEDICAL FINANCE LLC (the “Borrower”), the
Subsidiaries of Holdings from time to time party thereto, and BANK OF AMERICA,
N.A., as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties.

 

A.            Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of November 3,
2006 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower,
Holdings, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and
an L/C Issuer, each lender from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders” and individually, a “Lender”), BANC OF AMERICA SECURITIES LLC,
as Arranger and Book Runner, CREDIT SUISSE SECURITIES (USA) LLC, as Arranger,
Book Runner and as Syndication Agent, and GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION,
as Documentation Agent.

 

B.            Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement
and the Security Agreement referred to therein.

 

C.            The Grantors have entered into the Security Agreement in
order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and the L/C Issuers to issue Letters
of Credit.  Section 6.14 of the Security
Agreement provides that additional Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower may
become Subsidiary Parties under the Security Agreement by execution and
delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement.  The undersigned Restricted Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this
Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to
become a Subsidiary Party under the Security Agreement in order to induce the
Lenders to make additional Loans and the L/C Issuers to issue additional
Letters of Credit and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of
Credit previously issued.

 

Accordingly, the
Collateral Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

 

SECTION
1.  In accordance with Section 6.14 of
the Collateral Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a
Subsidiary Party (and accordingly, becomes a Grantor) and Grantor under the
Security Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named
therein as a Subsidiary Party and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all
the terms and provisions of the Security Agreement applicable to it as a
Subsidiary Party and Grantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that
the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor thereunder are true
and correct on and as of the date hereof. 
In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the
payment and performance in full of the Obligations does hereby create and grant
to the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, their successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien
on all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to the
Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) of the New Subsidiary.  Each reference to a “Grantor”
in the Security

 

I-1

 

Agreement shall be
deemed to include the New Subsidiary. 
The Security Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

 

SECTION
2.  The New Subsidiary 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 in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each
of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together
shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when
the Collateral Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that
bears the signature of the New Subsidiary, and the Collateral Agent has
executed a counterpart hereof.  Delivery
of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission or
other electronic transmission (i.e., a “PDF” or “TIF”) shall be as effective as
delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

 

SECTION
4.  The New Subsidiary hereby represents
and warrants that set forth under its signature hereto is the true and correct
legal name of the New Subsidiary, its jurisdiction of formation and the
location of its chief executive office.

 

SECTION
5.  Except as expressly supplemented
hereby, the Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

 

SECTION 6.  THIS
SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

SECTION
7.  In case any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions contained herein and in the Security Agreement shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in
and of itself affect the validity of 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.

 

SECTION
8.  All communications and notices
hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 6.01 of the
Security Agreement.

 

SECTION
9.  The New Subsidiary agrees to
reimburse the Collateral Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in
connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges
and disbursements of counsel for the Collateral Agent.

 

I-2

 

IN WITNESS
WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent have duly executed this
Supplement to the Security Agreement as of the day and year first above
written.

including the Guaranties, each Grantor hereby assigns and pledges to the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, and hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns,
for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in, all right, title or interest in or
to any and all of the following assets and properties now owned or at any time
hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now has or at any
time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Collateral”):

 

(i)            all
Copyrights;

 

(ii)           all
Patents;

 

(iii)          all
Trademarks;

 

(iv)          all
Licenses;

other Intellectual Property; and

 

(vi)          all
Proceeds and products of any and all of the foregoing and all collateral
security and guarantees given by any Person with respect to any of the
foregoing;

 

provided that with respect to any
Trademarks, applications in the United States Patent and Trademark Office to
register Trademarks or service marks on the basis of any Grantor’s “intent to
use” such Trademarks or service marks will not be deemed to be Collateral
unless and until a “Statement of Use” or “Amendment to Allege Use” has been
filed and accepted in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, whereupon
such application shall be automatically subject to the security interest
granted herein and deemed to be included in the Collateral.

 

(b)           Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties at any time and from time to time
to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements with
respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that
contain the information required by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or
the analogous legislation of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any
financing statement or amendment, including whether such Grantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to such Grantor. Each Grantor agrees to provide such information

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 by each Grantor, without the
signature of any Grantor, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and
the Collateral Agent as secured party.

 

(c)           The Security Interest is 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.

 

Section 2.02           Representations and Warranties. Holdings

and the other Grantors, to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties
that:

 

(a)           Each
Grantor owns or has exclusive rights to the Collateral with respect to which it
has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full power and
authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such
Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval
of any other Person other than any consent or approval that has been obtained.

 

(b)           The
Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (including fixture filings, as
applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations prepared
by the Collateral Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral
Agent in the Perfection Certificate (delivered pursuant to the Security
Agreement) for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified
in Schedule 2 to the Perfection Certificate (or specified by notice from the
Borrower to the Collateral Agent after the Closing Date in the case of filings,
recordings or registrations required by Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement),
are all the filings, recordings and registrations (other than filings required
to be made in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United
States Copyright Office in order to perfect the Security Interest in Collateral
consisting of United States Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights) that are
necessary to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor
of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of
all Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing,
recording or registration in the United States (or any political subdivision
thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent
filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is
necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law
with respect to the filing of continuation statements. Each Grantor represents
and warrants that a fully executed agreement in the form hereof and containing
a description of all Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property with
respect to United States Patents and United States registered Trademarks (and
Trademarks for which United States registration applications are pending) and
United States registered Copyrights have been delivered to the Collateral Agent
for recording by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United
States Copyright Office pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17
U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations thereunder, as applicable, and otherwise as
may be required

 

5

 

pursuant to
the laws of any other necessary jurisdiction, to protect the validity of and to
establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the
Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all
Collateral consisting of Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights in which a security
interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United
States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and
possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording,
rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than such
actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any
Collateral consisting of Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights (or registration or
application for registration thereof) acquired or developed after the date
hereof).

 

(c)           The
Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all
the Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Obligations,
including the Guaranties, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section
2.02(b), a perfected security interest in all Collateral in which a security
interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing
statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political
subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the
Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) a security interest that shall be perfected
in all Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected upon the
receipt and recording of this Agreement with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, within
the three month period (commencing as of the date hereof) pursuant to 35 U.S.C.
§ 261 or 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or the one month period (commencing as of the date
hereof) pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 205 and otherwise as may be required pursuant
to the laws of any other necessary jurisdiction. The Security Interest is and
shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Collateral, other than (i) any
nonconsensual Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the
Credit Agreement and has priority as a matter of law and (ii) Liens expressly
permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(d)           The
Collateral is owned or exclusively licensed by the Grantors free and clear of
any Lien, except for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the
Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of
(i) any financing statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial
Code or any other applicable laws covering any Collateral, (ii) any assignment
in which any Grantor assigns any Collateral or any security agreement or
similar instrument covering any Collateral with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or (iii) any assignment
in which any Grantor assigns any Collateral or any security agreement or
similar instrument covering any Collateral with any foreign governmental,
municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document,
assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect,
except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of
the Credit Agreement.

 

(e)           Such
Grantor owns, licenses or possesses the right to use, all of the trademarks,
service marks, trade names, domain names, copyrights, patents, patent rights,
licenses, technology, software, know-how database rights, design rights and
other intellectual property rights (collectively, “IP Rights”) that are reasonably necessary for

 

6

 

the operation
of their respective businesses as currently conducted, and, without conflict
with the rights of any Person, except to the extent such conflicts, either
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. To such Grantor’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date,
the IP Rights set forth on Schedule II hereto are owned or exclusively licensed
by such Grantor, and to such Grantor’s knowledge, the IP Rights are valid and
enforceable. No IP Rights, advertising, product, process, method, substance,
part or other material used by such Grantor in the operation of the business as
currently conducted, infringes, misappropriates, dilutes, misuses or otherwise
violates any rights held by any Person except for such infringements,
misappropriation, dilution, and misuse, individually or in the aggregate, which
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No claim,
investigation, proceeding or litigation regarding any of the IP Rights, is
pending or, to the knowledge of such Grantor, threatened against such Grantor,
which either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 2.03           Covenants.

 

(a)           The Borrower agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent
in writing of any change (i) in legal name of any Grantor, (ii) in the identity
or type of organization or corporate structure of any Grantor, or (iii) in the
jurisdiction of organization of any Grantor, in each case, within 10 days of
such change.

 

(b)           Each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all
commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Collateral
against all Persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent
in the Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not expressly
permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(c)           The Borrower agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of each
other Grantor, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause
to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such
actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request to
better assure, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the
rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and taxes
required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements or
other documents in connection herewith or therewith.

 

Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby authorizes the
Collateral Agent, with prompt notice thereof to the Grantors, to supplement
this Agreement by supplementing Schedule II or adding additional
schedules hereto to specifically identify any asset or item that may constitute
Copyrights, Licenses, Patents or Trademarks; provided
that any Grantor shall have the right, exercisable within 10 days after it has
been notified by the Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such
Collateral, to advise the Collateral Agent in writing of any inaccuracy of the
representations and warranties made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to
such Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that it will use its best efforts to take
such action as shall be necessary in order that all representations and
warranties hereunder shall be true and correct with respect to such Collateral
within 30 days after the date it has been notified by the Collateral Agent of
the specific identification of such Collateral.

 

7

 

(d)           At its option, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due
taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other
encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and not permitted
pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the
maintenance and preservation of the Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails
to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement and within a
reasonable period of time after the Collateral Agent has requested that it do
so, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral
Agent within 10 days after demand for any payment made or any reasonable
expense incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing
authorization. Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any
Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral
Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises
of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens,
security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or
in the other Loan Documents.

 

(e)           Each Grantor (rather than the Collateral Agent or any
Secured Party) shall remain liable (as between itself and any relevant
counterparty) to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be
observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument
relating to the Collateral, all in accordance with the terms and conditions
thereof, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties from and against
any and all liability for such performance.

 

(f)            On or prior to a date that is 60
days after the Closing Date, or such later date as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably determine after any request for extension by the Borrower, the
Collateral Agent shall receive a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower confirming that all actions set forth on Schedule III have been
completed (with the exception of, if appropriate, any actions that the Borrower
certifies as not being able to complete, after having taken all commercially
reasonable efforts to complete such actions); provided,
that, with respect to any actions to be taken that have not been completed by
such date, the Collateral Agent may determine in its sole reasonable judgment to
waive such actions if it reasonably determines that the cost of completing such
action is excessive in relation to the benefits afforded to the Secured Parties
thereby. In addition, the Borrower shall take all commercially reasonable
actions to complete the actions set forth on Schedule III as soon as reasonably
practical after the Closing Date.

 

Section 2.04           As to Intellectual Property Collateral.

 

(a)           Except to the extent failure to act could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to registration or
pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral for
which such Grantor has standing to do so, each Grantor agrees to take, at its
expense, all steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental
authority located in the United States, to (i) maintain the validity and
enforceability of any registered Intellectual Property Collateral (or
applications therefor) and maintain such Intellectual Property Collateral in
full force and effect, and (ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each
Patent, Trademark, or Copyright registration or application, now or hereafter
included in such Intellectual Property Collateral of such Grantor, including,
without limitation, the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of
responses to office actions issued by the U.S. Patent and

 

8

 

Trademark Office,
the U.S. Copyright Office or other governmental authorities, the filing of
applications for renewal or extension, the filing of affidavits under Sections
8 and 15 or the U.S. Trademark Act, the filing of divisional, continuation,
continuation-in-part, reissue and renewal applications or extensions, the
payment of maintenance fees and the participation in interference,
reexamination, opposition, cancellation, infringement and misappropriation
proceedings.

 

(b)           Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly
omit to do any act whereby any of its Intellectual Property Collateral may
lapse, be terminated, or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the
public domain (or in case of a trade secret, lose its competitive value).

 

(c)           Except where failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall take all steps
to preserve and protect each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral,
including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all products
or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks,
consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the date hereof,
and taking all steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the
Trademarks abide by the applicable license’s terms with respect to the
standards of quality.

 

(d)           Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or
other interest in any Intellectual Property Collateral after the Closing Date (“After-Acquired Intellectual Property”) (i)
the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii)
any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of Trademarks,
the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the
Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement with respect thereto.

 

(e)           Once every fiscal quarter of the Borrower, with respect to
issued or registered Patents (or published applications therefor) or Trademarks
(or applications therefor), and once every month, with respect to registered
Copyrights, each Grantor shall sign and deliver to the Collateral Agent an
appropriate Intellectual Property Security Agreement with respect to all
applicable Intellectual Property owned or exclusively licensed by it as of the
last day of such period, to the extent that such Intellectual Property is not
covered by any previous Intellectual Property Security Agreement so signed and
delivered by it. In each case, it will promptly cooperate as reasonably
necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to make any necessary or reasonably
desirable recordations with the U.S. Copyright Office or the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, as appropriate.

 

(f)            Nothing in this Agreement
prevents any Grantor from discontinuing the use or maintenance of any or its
Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent permitted by the Credit
Agreement if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that
such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business.

ARTICLE III

REMEDIES

 

Section 3.01           Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to
deliver each item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent on demand, and it is
agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, at the same or different
times, with respect to any Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on
demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and
conveyance of any of or all such Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the
Collateral Agent, or to license or sublicense, whether general, special or
otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such
Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner
as the Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then
existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained),
and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party with
respect to the Obligations under the Uniform Commercial Code or other
applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor
agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory
requirements of applicable law and the notice requirements described below, to
sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral securing the
Obligations at a public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future
delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. Each such purchaser at
any sale of Collateral 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 appraisal which
such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of
law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.

 

The
Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice
(which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9
611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the
Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in
the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale. Any
such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business
hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and state in
the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion
thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate
parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion)
determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any
Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that
notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent
may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause
the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and
place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the
time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or
any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the
Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price
is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall
not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to
take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure,
such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the
extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any
Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law)
from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on

 

10

 

the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also
hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or
any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by
using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as
a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon
compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property
without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a
written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be
treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such
sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return
of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the
fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement
all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations paid in full.
As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the
Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to
foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof
pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent
jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court appointed receiver. Any
sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.01 shall be deemed to conform
to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the
New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

 

Section 3.02           Application of Proceeds. The Collateral
Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral,
including any Collateral consisting of cash, in accordance with Section 8.04 of
the Credit Agreement as of the Closing Date.

 

The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as
to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in
accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of 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.

 

Section 3.03           Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property.
For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and
remedies under this Agreement at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be
lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor shall,
upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time after and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, grant to the Collateral Agent an
irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or
other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or sublicense any of the
Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired
by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such
license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may
be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the
compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Collateral
Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, during the
continuation of an Event of Default; provided
that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the
Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantors
notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION

 

Section 4.01           Indemnity. In addition to all such rights
of indemnity and subrogation as the Grantors may have under applicable law (but
subject to Section 4.03), the Borrower agrees that in the event any assets of
any Grantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Collateral
Document to satisfy in whole or in part an obligation owed to any Secured
Party, the Borrower shall indemnify such Grantor in an amount equal to the
greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold.

 

Section 4.02           Contribution and Subrogation. Each
Subsidiary Party (a “Contributing Party”)
agrees (subject to Section 4.03) that, in the event assets of any other
Subsidiary Party shall be sold pursuant to any Collateral Document to satisfy
any Obligation owed to any Secured Party and such other Subsidiary Party (the “Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified by
the Borrower as provided in Section 4.01, the Contributing Party shall
indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount equal to the greater of the book
value or the fair market value of such assets, in each case multiplied by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing
Party on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth
of all the Grantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Grantor becoming
a party hereto pursuant to Section 5.14, the date of the Intellectual Property
Security Agreement Supplement executed and delivered by such Grantor). Any
Contributing Party making any payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this
Section 4.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party to the
extent of such payment.

 

Section 4.03           Subordination.

 

(a)           Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, all rights of the Grantors under Sections 4.01 and 4.02 and all other
rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or
otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in
cash of the Obligations. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Grantor
to make the payments required by Sections 4.01 and 4.02 (or any other payments
required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the
obligations and liabilities of any Grantor with respect to its obligations
hereunder, and each Grantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the
obligations of such Grantor hereunder.

 

(b)           Each Grantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice from the
Collateral Agent all Indebtedness owed by it to any Subsidiary shall be fully
subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

 

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

 

Section 5.01           Notices. All communications and notices
hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing
and given as provided in Section 10.02 of

 

12

 

the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices
hereunder to any Subsidiary Party shall be given to it in care of the Borrower
as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 5.02           Waivers; Amendment.

 

(a)           No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer
or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The
rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver
of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan
Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 5.02, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose
for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making
of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver
of any Default, regardless of whether the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any
L/C Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No
notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

(b)           Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be
waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in
writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties
with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply,
subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit
Agreement.

 

Section 5.03           Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

 

(a)           The parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as provided in
Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(b)           Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under
the other Loan Documents, the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent
and the other Indemnitees (as defined in Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement)
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges
and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted
against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of,
the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, or to the Collateral, whether or
not any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of

 

13

 

such Indemnitee or
any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact
of such Indemnitee.

 

(c)           Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be
additional Obligations secured hereby and by the other Collateral Documents. The
provisions of this Section 5.03 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any
term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party. All amounts due under this Section 5.03 shall be payable within 10 days
of written demand therefor.

 

Section 5.04           Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this
Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be
deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all
covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the
Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to
the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

 

Section 5.05           Survival of Agreement. All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan
Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in
connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall
be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the
execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and
issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any
Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent, any L/C
Issuer or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or
incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under
the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as
the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other
amount payable under any Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter
of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or
terminated.

 

Section 5.06           Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute
an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile
transmission or other electronic transmission (i.e., a “PDF” or “TIF”) shall be
as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This
Agreement shall become effective as to any Loan Party when a counterpart hereof
executed on behalf of such Loan Party shall have been delivered to the
Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of
the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Loan Party and
the Collateral Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and
shall inure to the benefit of such Loan Party, the Collateral Agent and the
other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that
no Loan Party shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder or any interest herein or in the Collateral (and any such
assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this
Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a
separate agreement with respect to each Loan Party and may be amended,
modified, supplemented,

 

14

 

waived or released with respect to any Loan Party
without the approval of any other Loan Party and without affecting the
obligations of any other Loan Party hereunder.

 

Section 5.07           Severability. Any provision of this
Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties 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.

 

Section 5.08           Right of Set-Off. In addition to any
rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates
and each L/C Issuer and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time
to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such
notice being waived by the Borrower (on its behalf and on behalf of each Loan
Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law,
to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time
owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its Affiliates,
as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan
Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such
Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its Affiliates hereunder or
under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of
whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand
under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document and although such Obligations
may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that
of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness; provided
that in the case of any such deposits or other Indebtedness for the credit or
the account of any Foreign Subsidiary, such set off may only be against any
obligations of Foreign Subsidiaries. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower and the Collateral Agent after any such set off
and application made by such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be; provided, that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights
of each Lender and each L/C Issuer under this Section 6.08 are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the
Collateral Agent, such Lender and such L/C Issuer may have.

 

Section 5.09           Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of
Process.

 

(a)           This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the law of the State of New York.

 

(b)           Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York
County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New
York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto
hereby irrevocably and

 

15

 

unconditionally
agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard
and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in
such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in
any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing
in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the
Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
against any Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 

(c)           Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do
so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of
any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this
Section 5.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

 

(d)           Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service
of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 5.01. Nothing in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this
Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

Section 5.10           WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO
HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER
THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.10.

 

Section 5.11           Headings. Article and Section headings and
the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are
not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be
taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

Section 5.12           Security Interest Absolute. All rights of
the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Security Interest, the grant of a security
interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor
hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of
validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document,
any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or
instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner
or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations,
or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any

 

16

 

departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection
of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or
consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or
any of the Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of
the Obligations or this Agreement.

 

Section 5.13           Termination or Release.

 

(a)           This Agreement, the Security Interest and all other security
interests granted hereby shall terminate when all the outstanding Obligations
have been indefeasibly paid in full (other than (x) obligations under Secured
Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Cash Management Obligations not
yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification obligations not yet
accrued and payable) and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under
the Credit Agreement, the L/C Obligations have been reduced to zero (unless the
L/C Obligations shall have been collateralized on terms and conditions
reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer following the termination of
the Commitments) and the L/C Issuers have no further obligations to issue
Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement.

 

(b)           A Subsidiary Party shall automatically be released from its
obligations hereunder and the Security Interest in the Collateral of such
Subsidiary Party shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any
transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such
Subsidiary Party ceases to be a Subsidiary or is designated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary of the Borrower; provided
that the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction (to the
extent required by the Credit Agreement) and the terms of such consent did not
provide otherwise.

 

(c)           Upon any sale or other transfer by any Grantor of any
Collateral (other than any transfer to another Grantor) that is permitted under
the Credit Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the
release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to
Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral
shall be automatically released.

 

(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 5.13 shall be without recourse
to or warranty by the Collateral Agent.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding anything to contrary set forth in this
Agreement, each Cash Management Bank and each Hedge Bank by the acceptance of
the benefits under this Agreement hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the
Security Interests granted under this Agreement of the Obligations of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary under any Secured Hedge Agreement and the Cash
Management Obligations shall be automatically released upon termination of the
Commitments and payment in full of all other Obligations, in each case, unless
the Obligations under the Secured Hedge Agreement or the Cash Management
Obligations are due and payable at such time (it being understood and agreed
that this

 

17

 

Agreement and the
Security Interests granted herein shall survive solely as to such due and
payable Obligations and until such time as such due and payable Obligations
have been paid in full) and (ii) any release of Collateral or of a Grantor, as
the case may be, effected in the manner permitted by this Agreement shall not
require the consent of any Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank.

 

Section 5.14           Additional Restricted Subsidiaries. Pursuant
to (and to the extent required by) Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement,
certain Restricted Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties that were not in existence
or not Restricted Subsidiaries on the date of the Credit Agreement are required
to enter in this Agreement as Subsidiary Parties upon becoming Restricted Subsidiaries.
Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral Agent and a Restricted Subsidiary
of an Intellectual Property Security Agreement Supplement, such Restricted
Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and
effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and
delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan
Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall
remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan
Party as a party to this Agreement.

 

Section 5.15           General Authority of the Collateral Agent.
By acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and any other Collateral
Documents, each Secured Party (whether or not a signatory hereto) shall be
deemed irrevocably (a) to consent to the appointment of the Collateral Agent as
its agent hereunder and under such other Collateral Documents, (b) to confirm
that the Collateral Agent shall have the authority to act as the exclusive
agent of such Secured Party for the enforcement of any provisions of this
Agreement and such other Collateral Documents against any Grantor, the exercise
of remedies hereunder or thereunder and the giving or withholding of any
consent or approval hereunder or thereunder relating to any Collateral or any
Grantor’s obligations with respect thereto, (c) to agree that it shall not take
any action to enforce any provisions of this Agreement or any other Collateral
Document against any Grantor, to exercise any remedy hereunder or thereunder or
to give any consents or approvals hereunder or thereunder except as expressly
provided in this Agreement or any other Collateral Document and (d) to agree to
be bound by the terms of this Agreement and any other Collateral Documents.

 

Section 5.16           Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.
Each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent the attorney-in-fact of such
Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and
taking any action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may
deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof at any time after
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which appointment is
irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default and notice by the Collateral
Agent to the Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights, with full power of
substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such
Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes,
acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment
relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive
payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of
the Collateral; (c) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or
proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to
collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any
rights in respect of

 

18

 

any Collateral; (d) to settle, compromise, compound,
adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of
the Collateral; and (e) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any
agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral,
and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this
Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the
absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed as
requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make
any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the
Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any
action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or
to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The
Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for
amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to
them herein, and neither they nor 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 wilful misconduct or that
of any of their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents or
attorneys-in-fact.

BANC OF AMERICA SECURITIES LLC, as Arranger and Book Runner, CREDIT SUISSE
SECURITIES (USA) LLC, as Arranger, Book Runner and Syndication Agent, and
GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION, as Documentation Agent.

 

B.            Capitalized terms used herein and
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the Credit Agreement and the Intellectual Property Security Agreement referred
to therein.

 

C.            The Grantors have entered into the
Intellectual Property Security Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make
Loans and the L/C Issuers to issue Letters of Credit. Section 5.14 of the
Intellectual Property Security Agreement provides that additional Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become Subsidiary Parties under the
Intellectual Property Security Agreement by execution and delivery of an
instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Restricted
Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”)
is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit
Agreement to become a Subsidiary Party under the Intellectual Property Security
Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and the L/C
Issuers to issue additional Letters of Credit and as consideration for Loans
previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued.

 

Accordingly,
the Collateral Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 5.14 of the
Intellectual Property Security Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature
below becomes a Subsidiary Party (and accordingly, becomes a Grantor) and
Grantor under the Intellectual Property Security Agreement with the same force
and effect as if originally named therein as a Subsidiary Party and the New
Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the
Intellectual Property Security Agreement applicable to it as a Subsidiary Party
and Grantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations
and warranties made by it as a Grantor thereunder are true and correct on and
as of the date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as
security for the payment and performance in full of the Obligations, does
hereby create and grant

 

 

to the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, their successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien on all
of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as
defined in the Intellectual Property Security Agreement) of the New Subsidiary.
Each reference to a “Grantor” in the Intellectual Property Security Agreement
shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Intellectual Property
Security Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

 

SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary 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 in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each
of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together
shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when
the Collateral Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that
bears the signature of the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent has executed
a counterpart hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement
by facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission (i.e. a “TIF” or “PDF”)
shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this
Supplement.

 

SECTION 4. The New Subsidiary hereby represents and
warrants that (a) set forth on Schedule I attached hereto is a true and
correct schedule of any and all Collateral of the New Subsidiary consisting of
Intellectual Property and (b) set forth under its signature hereto, is the true
and correct legal name of the New Subsidiary, its jurisdiction of formation and
the location of its chief executive office.

 

SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby,
the Intellectual Property Security Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect.

 

SECTION 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

 

SECTION 7. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions contained herein and in the Intellectual Property Security Agreement
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that
the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
in and of itself affect the validity of 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.

 

SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder
shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 5.01 of the Intellectual
Property Security Agreement.

SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the
Collateral Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with
this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements
of counsel for the Collateral Agent.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent have duly executed
this Supplement to the Intellectual Property Security Agreement as of the day
and year first above written.
