E.             This Agreement is given by each Pledgor in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Security Agreement) to secure the payment and performance of the obligations (whether or not constituting future advances, obligatory or otherwise) of the Borrower and any and all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time arising under or in respect of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other Obligations (as defined in the Security Agreement).

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each Pledgor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Pledgor hereby makes

the following representations and warranties to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (and each of their respective successors and assigns), and agrees as follows:

SECTION 1.           Pledge. (a)  The following liens are hereby granted:

(i)            As collateral security for the payment and performance, in full of all the Obligations, each Pledgor hereby pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Secured Parties, a lien on and security interest in and to all of the right, title and interest of such Pledgor in, to and under (a) all the shares of capital stock and other Equity Interests owned by it listed on Schedule II hereto and any shares of capital stock and other Equity Interests obtained in the future by such Pledgor and not deposited into a Securities Account pursuant to the Security Agreement and the certificates, if any, representing all such shares or interests (collectively, the “Pledged Stock”); provided that the Pledged Stock shall not include (i) more than 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of voting stock of any first tier Non-U.S. Subsidiary, (ii) the issued and outstanding shares of any second tier Non-U.S. Subsidiary or (iii) to the extent that applicable law requires that a Subsidiary of the Pledgor issue directors’ qualifying shares, such qualifying shares; (b)(i) all debt securities owned by it listed opposite the name of the Pledgor on Schedule II hereto, (ii) all debt securities in the future issued to the Pledgor and not deposited into a Securities Account (as defined in the Security Agreement) pursuant to the Security Agreement and (iii) all promissory notes and any other instruments evidencing such debt securities (collectively, the “Pledged Debt Securities” and together with the Pledged Stock, the “Pledged Securities”); (c) subject to Section 5, all payments of principal or interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, in exchange for or upon the conversion of the securities referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above; (d) subject to Section 5, all rights and privileges of the Pledgor with respect to the securities and other property referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above; and (e) all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Securities Collateral”).

(b)           Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent, (a) any certificated Pledged Securities now or hereafter included in the Securities Collateral shall be accompanied by stock or bond powers duly executed in blank or other instruments of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and by such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and (b) all other property comprising part of the Securities Collateral shall be accompanied by proper instruments of assignment duly executed by the applicable Pledgor and such other instruments or documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Each subsequent delivery of Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities then being pledged hereunder, which schedule shall be attached hereto as a supplement to Schedule II and made a part hereof. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Securities Collateral, together with all right, title, interest, powers, privileges and preferences pertaining or incidental thereto, unto the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; subject, however, to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth.

SECTION 2.           Delivery of the Securities Collateral. (a)  Each Pledgor agrees to promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent any and all Pledged Securities, and any and all certificates or other instruments or documents representing the Securities Collateral, other than those Pledged Securities to be held in a Securities Account which Securities Account will be subject to a

2

Control Agreement (as defined in the Security Agreement) pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement.

(b)           Each Pledgor will cause any Indebtedness for borrowed money owed to such Pledgor by any Person to be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note that is pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the respective Secured Parties and delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof (provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to any such Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount less than $500,000 of any Person that is not a Subsidiary).

(c)           If any Equity Interests now or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor constituting Pledged Stock are uncertificated, such Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Equity Interests to be certificated. If, after using commercially reasonable efforts, such Pledgor is not able to have such Equity Interests certificated, such Pledgor shall comply with its obligations under Section 3.05(c) of the Security Agreement.

SECTION 3.           Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each Pledgor hereby represents, warrants and covenants, as to itself and the Securities Collateral pledged by it hereunder, to and with each Collateral Agent that:

(a)           as of the date hereof the Pledged Stock represents that percentage as set forth on Schedule II of the issued and outstanding shares of each class of the capital stock or other Equity Interests of the issuer with respect thereto;

(b)           except for the security interests granted hereunder, such Pledgor (i) is as of the date hereof the direct owner, beneficially and of record, of the Pledged Securities indicated on Schedule II, (ii) holds the Pledged Securities free and clear of all Liens, other than the Liens created hereunder, (iii) will make no assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer of, or create or permit to exist any security interest in or other Lien on, the Securities Collateral, other than pursuant hereto or in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and (iv) subject to Section 2 and Section 5, will cause any and all Securities Collateral, whether for value paid by such Pledgor or otherwise, to be forthwith deposited with the Collateral Agent and pledged or assigned hereunder;

(d)           such Pledgor (i) has the power and authority to pledge the Securities Collateral in the manner hereby done or contemplated and (ii) will defend its title or interest thereto or therein against any and all Liens (other than the Lien created by this Agreement), however arising, of all Persons whomsoever;

(e)           by virtue of (i) the execution and delivery by the Pledgors of this Agreement, when the Pledged Securities, certificates or other documents representing or evidencing the Securities Collateral are delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement or (ii) in the case of uncertificated Equity Interests, the filing of a UCC financing statement or its equivalent in other jurisdictions, each Collateral Agent will obtain a valid and perfected lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Securities under New York law and/or any other applicable jurisdiction as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, subject to no Liens other than the liens created hereunder or Permitted Liens which arise by operation of law;

3

(f)            all of the Pledged Stock issued by any Pledgor has been duly authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and to the extent applicable, nonassessable;

(g)           all of the Pledged Debt Securities issued by any Pledgor have been duly authorized, executed and delivered and are the enforceable obligations of the issuer thereof; and

(h)           all information set forth herein relating to the Pledged Securities is accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof.

SECTION 4.           Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. 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 Pledgors, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall only exercise such right to hold the Pledged Securities in its own name as pledge or the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent) if (a) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) it has provided Borrower with prior written notice of its intent to exercise such right. During the continuance of any Event of Default, each Pledgor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any written notices or other written communications received by it with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Pledgor. During the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall at all times 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 5.           Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest, etc. (a)  Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and until prior notice shall have been given to the Pledgor:

(i)            Each Pledgor shall have the right to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers enuring 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, however, that such Pledgor will not be entitled to exercise any such right if the result thereof would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the rights and remedies of any of the 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)           Each Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to each Pledgor, or cause to be executed and delivered to each Pledgor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (i) above and to receive the cash dividends it is entitled to receive pursuant to subparagraph (iii) below; and

(iii)          Subject to the next sentence, each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all cash dividends, interest, principal and other amounts paid on the Pledged Securities to the extent and only to the extent that such cash dividends, interest, principal and other amounts are permitted by or not prohibited by, and otherwise paid in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable laws. All noncash dividends, interest, principal and other amounts, and all dividends, interest, principal and other amounts paid or payable in cash or otherwise in connection with a partial or total liquidation or

4

dissolution, return of capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus, and all other distributions (other than distributions referred to in the preceding sentence) made on or in respect of the Pledged Securities, whether paid or payable in cash or otherwise, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding capital stock 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, shall be and become part of the Securities Collateral, and, if received by any Pledgor, shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

(b)           Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and following notice to the Pledgor, all rights of any Pledgor to dividends, interest, principal or other amounts that such Pledgor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) above 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 amounts. All dividends, interest, principal or other amounts received by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 5 shall be held for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent upon prior written demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). 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 the Collateral Account established pursuant to the Security Agreement and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 7. Within five (5) Business Days after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Collateral Agent shall repay to each Pledgor all cash dividends, interest or principal (including interest earned thereon) that such Pledgor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) above and which remain in such account; provided, however, the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation with respect to the investment of such cash dividends, interest or principal, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any requirement to invest such cash dividends, interest or principal in any class of investment, interest-bearing or otherwise.

(c)           Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and following notice to the Pledgor, all rights of any Pledgor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 5, and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 5, 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, managerial and consensual rights and powers. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, such Pledgor will have the right to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(i) above.

After any and all Events of Default have been cured or waived, (i) Pledgor shall have the right to exercise the voting, managerial and other consensual rights and powers that it would otherwise be entitled to pursuant to this Agreement and to receive the payments, proceeds, dividends, distributions, monies, compensation, property, assets, instruments or rights that it would be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) promptly after such cure or waiver, the Agent shall repay and deliver to Pledgor all cash and monies that such Pledgor is entitled to retain pursuant to this Agreement which have not been applied to the repayment of the Obligations pursuant to the Security Agreement or the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 6.           Remedies upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to applicable regulatory and legal requirements, the Collateral Agent may sell or otherwise dispose of the Securities Collateral, or any part thereof, at 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; provided that any disposition of Securities Collateral by private sale be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgors hereby waive all rights of redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal any Pledgor 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 a Pledgor ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice (which each Pledgor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York or its equivalent in other jurisdictions (the “UCC”)) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale or other disposition of such Pledgor’s Securities 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 Securities 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 of such sale. At any such sale, the Securities 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 Securities Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Securities 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 Securities Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Securities Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid in full 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 Securities Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Securities Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section 6, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Pledgor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released), the Securities Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any Obligation then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Pledgor 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 Pledgor therefor. For purposes hereof, (a) a written agreement to purchase the Securities Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof, (b) the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and (c) no Pledgor shall be entitled to the return of the Securities 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 upon the Securities Collateral and to sell the Securities 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 shall be deemed to conform

6

to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions, as applicable.

SECTION 7.           Application of Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds of any sale of Securities Collateral pursuant to Section 6, as well as any Securities Collateral consisting of cash, shall be applied by the Collateral Agent as provided in the Security Agreement.

SECTION 8.           Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Subject to Section 25, each Pledgor hereby appoints each Collateral Agent the attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that either Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, provided that the Collateral Agent shall only take any action pursuant to such appointment upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default. 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, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such Pledgor, to ask for, demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys due or to become due under and by virtue of any Securities Collateral, to endorse checks, drafts, orders and other instruments for the payment of money payable to the Pledgor representing any interest or dividend or other distribution payable in respect of the Securities Collateral or any part thereof or on account thereof and to give full discharge for the same, to settle, compromise, prosecute or defend any action, claim or proceeding with respect thereto, and to sell, assign, endorse, pledge, transfer and to make any agreement respecting, or otherwise deal with, the same; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating either Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by such Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Securities 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 Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

SECTION 9.           Waivers; Amendment. (a)  No failure or delay of the Collateral Agent in exercising any power or right 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 Collateral Agent hereunder and of the other Secured Parties 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 provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle such Pledgor or any other Pledgor 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 a written agreement entered into among the Borrower, the Collateral Agent

7

and the Pledgors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply subject to any consents required in accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 10.         Securities Act, etc. In view of the position of the Pledgors in relation to the Pledged Securities, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) or equivalent legislation in any other jurisdiction with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Securities permitted hereunder. Each Pledgor understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws or equivalent legislation in any other jurisdiction might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent was to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Securities, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Securities could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Collateral Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Securities under applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Pledgor recognizes that in light of such restrictions and limitations the Collateral Agent may, with respect to any sale of the Pledged Securities, limit the purchasers to those who will represent and agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Securities for their own account for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale 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 Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion (but subject to the other provisions of this Agreement), (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Securities or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws or equivalent legislation in any other jurisdiction and (b) may approach and negotiate with a single potential purchaser to effect such sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Securities at a price that the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a single purchaser were approached. The provisions of this Section 10 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Collateral Agent sells.

SECTION 11.         Registration, etc. Each Pledgor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, if for any reason the Collateral Agent desires to sell any of the Pledged Securities of the Borrower at a public sale, it will, at any time and from time to time, upon the reasonable written request of the Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or to cause the issuer of such Pledged Securities to take such action and prepare, distribute, file and/or cause to become effective such documents as are required or advisable in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Collateral Agent to permit the public sale of such Pledged Securities. Each Pledgor further agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Collateral Agent, each other Secured Party, any underwriter and their respective officers, directors, affiliates and controlling Persons (collectively, “indemnitees”) from and against all loss, liability, expenses, costs of counsel (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses to the Collateral Agent of legal counsel) and claims (including the reasonable costs of investigation) that they may incur insofar as such loss, liability, expense or

8

claim arises out of or is based upon any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or in any notification or offering circular, or arises out of or is based upon any alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any thereof not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by any untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Pledgor or the issuer of such Pledged Securities by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party expressly for use therein. Each Pledgor further agrees, upon such written request referred to above, to use its reasonable best efforts to qualify, file or register, or cause the issuer of such Pledged Securities to qualify, file or register, any of the Pledged Securities under the Blue Sky or other securities laws of such states as may be requested by the Collateral Agent and keep effective, or cause to be kept effective, all such qualifications, filings or registrations. Each Pledgor will bear all reasonable costs and expenses of carrying out its obligations under this Section 11. Each Pledgor acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by it to comply with the provisions of this Section 11 and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees that its agreements contained in this Section 11 may be specifically enforced.

SECTION 12.         Termination or Release. (a)  This Agreement and the security interests granted hereby (i) shall automatically terminate when all the Obligations have been paid in full (except for contingent indemnity obligations not then due), the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit and the LC Exposure has been reduced to zero (at which time the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to each Pledgor, at such Pledgor’s expense, all UCC termination statements or their equivalent in any other jurisdiction and other documents which such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination) and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment in respect of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party upon any bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise. Any execution and delivery of termination statements or documents pursuant to this Section 12(a) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent. A Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Security Interests in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released in the event that the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person that is not an Affiliate of Borrower such that such Person is no longer a Subsidiary of Borrower in accordance with the terms of each Loan Document.

(b)           Upon any sale or other transfer by any Pledgor of any Securities Collateral that is permitted under each Loan Document to any Person that is not a Pledgor, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interests granted hereby in any Securities Collateral pursuant to Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement, the security interests in such Securities Collateral shall be automatically released. If the capital stock of a Pledgor is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower so that such Pledgor is no longer a Subsidiary of the Borrower pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, such Pledgor shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement without further action.

(c)           In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b), the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Pledgor, at such Pledgor’s expense, all documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 12 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent.

9

SECTION 13.         Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Pledgor that is a Domestic Subsidiary shall be given to it at the Borrower at the Borrower’s address as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement, with a copy to the Borrower.

SECTION 14.         Further Assurances. Each Pledgor agrees to do such further acts and things, and to execute and deliver such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may at any time reasonably request in writing in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement or with respect to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof or in order to assure and confirm unto the Collateral Agent, its rights and remedies hereunder.

SECTION 15.         Binding Effect; Several Agreement; Assignment. 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 Pledgor that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of its permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Pledgor when a counterpart (including a facsimile copy) hereof executed on behalf of such Pledgor 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 Pledgor and the Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns, and shall enure to the benefit of such Pledgor, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Pledgor shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein or in the Securities Collateral (and any such attempted assignment shall be void), except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Pledgor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Pledgor without the approval of any other Pledgor and without affecting the obligations of any other Pledgor hereunder.

SECTION 16.         Survival of Agreement; Severability. (a)  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Pledgor herein 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 Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, and the Lenders’ issuance of and participations in Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by the Secured Parties or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect until this Agreement shall terminate.

(b)           In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein 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 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. It is understood and agreed that this Agreement shall create separate security interests in the Securities Collateral securing the Obligations, as provided in Section 1, and that any determination by any court with jurisdiction that the security interests securing any Obligation or class of Obligations is invalid for any reason shall not in and of itself invalidate the security interests securing any other Obligations hereunder.
