ARTICLE V

REMEDIES

Section 5.01 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) The Term Collateral Agent may exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(ii) those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ Lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement;

(iii) give notice of sole control or any other instruction under any Blocked Account Agreement or any other control or similar agreement and take any action provided therein with respect to the applicable Collateral;

(iv) without notice (except as specifically provided in Section 7.01 or elsewhere herein), demand or advertisement of any kind to any Grantor or any other Person, enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice and may take place at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Term Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and

(v) concurrently with written notice to the Grantors, transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Term Collateral Agent was the outright owner thereof.

(b) Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the compliance by the Term Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Term Secured Parties with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

 

- 16 -


(c) The Term Collateral Agent shall have the right upon any public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Term Collateral Agent and the Term Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption each Grantor hereby expressly releases.

(d) Until the Term Collateral Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of Collateral, the Term Collateral Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or the value of the Collateral, or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Term Collateral Agent. The Term Collateral Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Term Collateral Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Term Collateral Agent and Term Secured Parties) with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Term Collateral Agent nor the Term Secured Parties shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the Grantors, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Term Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Term Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.

(f) Each Grantor recognizes that the Term Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Term Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if any Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so (it being acknowledged and agreed that no Grantor shall have any obligation hereunder to do so).

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any rights and remedies provided in this Section 5.01 shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreements.

Section 5.02 Application of Proceeds. The Term Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of the Collateral as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, at any time after receipt during the continuation of an Event of Default as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Term Collateral Agent in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with this Security Agreement, the other Term Documents or any of the Term Obligations, including all court costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Term Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Term Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other reasonable and documented costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Term Document;

 

- 17 -


(ii) second, in accordance with the Equal Priority Intercreditor Agreement; and

(iii) third, any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Grantors or their successors or assigns or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct

Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Term Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Term 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 Term Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

Section 5.03 Grantors’ Obligations Upon Default. Upon the written request of the Term Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will:

(i) assemble and make available to the Term Collateral Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places reasonably specified by the Term Collateral Agent, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere; and

(ii) permit the Term Collateral Agent, by the Term Collateral Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy.

Section 5.04 Grant of Intellectual Property License.

- 18 -


process and affix any relevant Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein. The use of the license granted pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence by the Term Collateral Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Term Collateral Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided, however, that any permitted license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Term Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

reasonable documented expense incurred by the Term Collateral Agent in connection with any of the foregoing, to the same extent as provided in Section 10.04 and 10.05 of the Credit Agreement and references therein to the “Administrative Agent” shall, for the purposes hereof, be deemed to be the Term Collateral Agent; provided that, this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement.

(b) All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved by the Grantors. The powers conferred on the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Term Collateral Agent and Term Secured Parties, under this Section 6.02 are solely to protect the Term Collateral Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Term Collateral Agent or any Term Secured Party to exercise any such powers.

Section 6.03 PROXY. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS, EFFECTIVE UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, THE TERM COLLATERAL AGENT AS ITS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT (AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 6.02 ABOVE) WITH RESPECT TO THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO VOTE SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO. IN ADDITION TO THE RIGHT TO VOTE ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL, THE APPOINTMENT OF THE TERM COLLATERAL AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT SHALL INCLUDE THE RIGHT TO EXERCISE ALL OTHER RIGHTS, POWERS, PRIVILEGES AND REMEDIES TO WHICH A HOLDER OF SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL WOULD BE ENTITLED (INCLUDING GIVING OR WITHHOLDING WRITTEN CONSENTS OF SHAREHOLDERS, CALLING SPECIAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS AND VOTING AT SUCH MEETINGS). SUCH PROXY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE, AUTOMATICALLY AND WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF ANY ACTION (INCLUDING ANY TRANSFER OF ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL ON THE RECORD BOOKS OF THE ISSUER THEREOF) BY ANY PERSON (INCLUDING THE ISSUER OF SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL OR ANY OFFICER OR TERM COLLATERAL AGENT THEREOF), UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.

Section 6.04 NATURE OF APPOINTMENT; LIMITATION OF DUTY. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE TERM COLLATERAL AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN THIS ARTICLE VI IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 7.13. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, NEITHER THE TERM COLLATERAL AGENT, NOR ANY TERM SECURED PARTY, NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, TERM COLLATERAL AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY DUTY TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OR POWER GRANTED HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE OR TO PRESERVE THE SAME AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO DO SO OR FOR ANY DELAY IN DOING SO, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH DAMAGES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION; PROVIDED THAT, IN NO EVENT SHALL THEY BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

- 20 -


other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Term Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the Term Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the applicable Term Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

ARTICLE VII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 7.01 Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article VIII, at least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Term Collateral Agent or any Term Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Term Collateral Agent or such Term Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Term Collateral Agent or any Term Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

Section 7.02 Limitation on Term Collateral Agent’s and Term Secured Party’s Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Term Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Term Collateral Agent and each Term Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Term Collateral Agent nor any Term Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Term Collateral Agent or such Term Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Term Collateral Agent to exercise remedies, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it would be commercially reasonable for the Term Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Term Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as a Grantor, for

 

- 21 -


expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements at the Grantors’ cost to insure the Term Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Term Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Term Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Term Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 7.02 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Term Collateral Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Term Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and that other actions or omissions by the Term Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 7.02. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7.02 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Term Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 7.02.

Section 7.03 Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the Term Collateral Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Term Collateral Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Term Collateral Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Term Collateral Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Term Collateral Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

Section 7.04 Term Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Term Collateral Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay under this Security Agreement, and such Grantor shall reimburse the Term Collateral Agent for any amounts paid by the Term Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 7.04. Each Grantor’s obligation to reimburse the Term Collateral Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Term Obligation payable on demand.

Section 7.05 No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay by the Term Collateral Agent or any Term Secured Party in exercising any right or power hereunder 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 Term Collateral Agent and the Term Secured Parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement or consent to any departure by any Term Secured Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless in writing signed by the Term Collateral Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the parties required under Section 4.05(d) of the Equal Priority Intercreditor Agreement, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

 

- 22 -


Section 7.06 Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

Section 7.07 Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Term Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Term Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Term Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

Section 7.08 Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Grantor, the Term Collateral Agent and the Term Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns (including all Persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Term Collateral Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Term Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Term Collateral Agent and the Term Secured Parties, hereunder.

Section 7.09 Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of each Grantor contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement.

Section 7.10 Taxes and Expenses. Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to (i) pay any taxes payable or ruled payable by Federal or State authority in respect of this Security Agreement, together with interest and penalties, if any, and (ii) reimburse the Term Collateral Agent for any and all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the Term Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Collateral). Any and all costs and expenses incurred by any Grantor in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by such Grantor.

 

- 23 -


Section 7.11 Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. Each Grantor shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is required to provide a Guarantee pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement to enter into this Security Agreement as a Grantor as promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable (but in no event to exceed ninety (90) days after such formation or acquisition or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Term Collateral Agent in writing). Upon execution and delivery by the Term Collateral Agent and such Subsidiary Guarantor of an instrument in the form of Exhibit J hereto, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Security Agreement.

Section 7.12 Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement.

Section 7.13 Termination or Release.

(a) This Security Agreement shall continue in effect until the Termination Date.

(b) A Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the security interests created hereunder in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary.

(c) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under Section 4.01(e) to any Person that is not another Grantor or, upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to the Credit Agreement and to the Equal Priority Intercreditor Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released.

(d) The security interests granted hereunder on any Collateral, to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Grantor, shall be automatically released upon termination or expiration of such lease, pursuant to the Credit Agreement and to the Equal Priority Intercreditor Agreement.

(e) The security interests created hereunder in the Collateral shall be automatically released as required pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements; provided that the Term Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, release the Lien on Collateral as provided in the Credit Agreement and to the Equal Priority Intercreditor Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Security Agreement, if Capital Stock of any Subsidiary are not required to be pledged under this Security Agreement because Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act would require the filing of separate financial statements of such

 

- 24 -


Subsidiary if its Capital Stock were so pledged, in the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC or any other relevant Governmental Authority to no longer require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation that would not require) the filing of separate financial statements of such Subsidiary if some or all of its Capital Stock is pledged under this Security Agreement, then such Capital Stock of such Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed part of the Collateral and pledged under this Security Agreement.

(g) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) above, the Term Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all UCC termination statements and similar documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.13 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Term Collateral Agent or any Term Secured Party. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.18, the Company shall reimburse the Term Collateral Agent upon demand for all reasonable and documented costs and out of pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and expenses of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 7.13.

Section 7.14 Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement, together with the other Term Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between each Grantor and the Term Collateral Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between any Grantor and the Term Collateral Agent relating to the Collateral.

Each Grantor 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.

(b) Each Grantor hereto 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 Security Agreement in any court referred to in clause (a) of this Section.

Section 7.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR 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 SECURITY AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TERM DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GRANTOR (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, TERM COLLATERAL 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 SECURITY AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

FORM OF

JOINDER AGREEMENT

THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT (this “Supplement”), to the Security Agreement dated as of March 28, 2014 (the “Security Agreement”), among American Tire Distributors Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), American Tire Distributors, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as collateral agent for the Term Secured Parties (together with its successors in such capacities, the “Term Collateral Agent”).

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of March 28, 2014 (as further amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Holdings, the Company, each Guarantor from time to time party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and each Lender from time to time party thereto.

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, as applicable, as referred to therein.

The Grantors have entered into the Security Agreement to secure the Term Obligations. The Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement provide that additional Restricted Subsidiaries required to provide a Guarantee pursuant to and in accordance with the Credit Agreement shall become Grantors under the Security Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and Grantor under the Security Agreement.

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

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 7.11 of the Security Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Grantor under the Security Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Grantor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Security Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor 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 Term Obligations, does hereby create and grant to the Term 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 of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to a “Grantor” in the Security Agreement shall be deemed to include and be a reference to the New Subsidiary. The Security Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Term 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. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed 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 the location of any and all Collateral of the New Subsidiary, (b) set forth on Schedule II attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of all the Pledged Collateral of the New Subsidiary, (c) set forth on Schedule III attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of all Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights of the New Subsidiary and (d) 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 8.1 of the Security Agreement.

SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Term Collateral Agent for its reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of counsel for the Term Collateral Agent.


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