This Pledge and Security Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Equityholder enforceable against such Equityholder in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity). All requisite action has been taken by such Equityholder to make this Pledge and Security Agreement valid and binding upon such Equityholder.

          (d) All necessary governmental approvals and consents of other parties (including directors, officers, partners, members, managers or creditors of such Equityholder) have been obtained that are required (i) for the execution, delivery and performance by such Equityholder of this Pledge and Security Agreement or (ii) for the pledge by such Equityholder of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder pursuant to this Pledge and Security Agreement (except as may be required (w) in connection with filings of any UCC financing statements, (x) in connection with any disposition of all or any part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder under any laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally, (y) under applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and applicable interpretations thereof providing for the supervision or regulation of the banking or trust businesses generally and applicable to the Trustee and (z) with respect to the Trustee as a result of any relationship that the Trustee may have with Persons not parties to, or any activity or business the Trustee may conduct other than pursuant to, any of the Deal Documents).

bound (which default or breach has not been permanently waived by the other party to such document) except where such breach or default would not be a Material Adverse Change or (iv) result in or create any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) under, or require any consent that has not been obtained under, any indenture (including the Indenture), credit agreement or loan agreement or any other material agreement, instrument or document or the provisions of any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority, binding upon the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder.

          (g) There are no proceedings and there is no action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or by or before any Governmental Authority now pending against such Equityholder or, to the best knowledge of such Equityholder, threatened against such Equityholder that questions the validity or legality of or seeks damages in connection with this Pledge and Security Agreement or that seeks to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Pledge and Security Agreement.

SUPPLEMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES

     Section 5.1 Supplements.

If any Equityholder fails to perform any agreement contained herein on its part after receipt of a written request to do so from the Trustee (it being understood that no such request need be given after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), the Trustee may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, in which case the reasonable expenses of the Trustee, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel, incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Equityholder under Section 12.1 to the extent such Equityholder would have otherwise been responsible therefor under this Pledge and Security Agreement.

ARTICLE VI
COVENANTS

     Section 6.1 No Sale and No Liens. Each Equityholder agrees that, without the consent of the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, it will not (a) sell or otherwise dispose of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or any interest therein or (b) except for Permitted Liens, create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or any interest therein; provided, however, that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee or otherwise has actual knowledge thereof, each Equityholder will be entitled to sell, transfer, assign, convey, contribute or grant the Issuer Pledged Equity of such Equityholder (x) subject to the lien of this Pledge and Security Agreement and (y) so long as (i) such Issuer Pledged Equity in the hands of each transferee remains subject to the pledge under this Pledge and Security Agreement, (ii) the Trustee shall have been provided with an Opinion of Counsel as to the continuing validity of such pledge and perfection of the security interest of the Trustee therein and a written acknowledgement from the transferee that it is acquiring such Issuer Pledged Equity subject to such pledge and security interest and making representations and warranties to the effect set forth in Article IV, (iii) the Trustee shall have been provided with an Opinion of Counsel from a law firm with a nationally recognized tax practice that such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance, contribution or granting should not cause a “significant modification” of the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be required to be provided with such an Opinion of Counsel if there has been a Change in Law and counsel to such Equityholder determines in good faith that it is unable to render such an Opinion of Counsel (whereas it would have been able to render such an Opinion of Counsel had the Change in Law not occurred), (iv) the transferee agrees in writing for the benefit of the Trustee to be bound by the provisions of this Pledge and Security Agreement and (v) the transferee is not subject to Japanese withholding tax in respect of the Royalties.

     Section 6.2 Notices.

     Section 6.3 Voting Rights. So long as any Equityholder is the owner of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Pledge and Security Agreement or any other Deal Document, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee or otherwise has actual knowledge thereof, such Equityholder may exercise any and all voting and consensual powers pertaining to the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or any part thereof. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee, and the Trustee shall have notified such Equityholder that the Trustee shall thereafter exercise all voting and consensual powers pertaining to the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or any specified part thereof, such Equityholder shall thereafter not be entitled to exercise any of the powers described in the preceding sentence as to the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or the specified part

thereof, which powers shall be exercised exclusively by the Trustee, until further notice to the contrary from the Trustee.

     Section 6.4 Dividends and Distributions. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee or otherwise has actual knowledge thereof, each Equityholder may receive and retain any dividends and other distributions on the Issuer Pledged Equity of such Equityholder. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee or otherwise has actual knowledge thereof, such Equityholder shall not be entitled to receive any subsequent dividends or other distributions on the Issuer Pledged Equity of such Equityholder and, unless otherwise agreed by the Senior Trustee at the Direction of Noteholders of a majority of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Senior Class of Notes, all such subsequent dividends and other distributions otherwise payable or distributable thereafter in respect of such Equityholder’s Issuer Pledged Collateral shall constitute Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder.

     Section 6.5 Capital Securities. Each Equityholder agrees that it will not accept any Capital Securities of the Issuer or any rights or options to acquire any such Capital Securities, each in addition to or in substitution for the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, without prior written consent from the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, unless the foregoing are pledged to the Trustee pursuant hereto.

     Section 6.6 Legal Existence. Each Equityholder shall preserve and maintain (a) its legal existence as an entity in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and (b) its qualification to do business in every jurisdiction where the ownership of its properties and the nature of its business require it to be so qualified and where the failure to be so qualified would have a material adverse effect on the security interest created by this Pledge and Security Agreement in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it; provided, however, that a Change of Control shall not be deemed a violation of this Section 6.6.

     Section 6.7 Compliance with Laws. Each Equityholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all laws, and obtain, maintain and comply with all government approvals as shall now or hereafter be necessary under Applicable Law, in each case in connection with the making and performance by such Equityholder of any material provision of this Pledge and Security Agreement in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it.

     Section 6.8 Modifications. No Equityholder shall agree to or permit (a) the amendment, supplement, modification, cancellation or termination of, or waiver with respect to, any of the organizational documents of the Issuer, except upon the expiration of the stated term thereof (but in no event prior to the Final Legal Maturity Date), or (b) any amendment, supplement or modification of, or waiver with respect to, any of the provisions of any of such organizational documents, if any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver would result in a material adverse change in respect of the validity, perfection or priority of the pledge of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it pursuant to this Pledge and Security Agreement or the exercise of the rights by the Trustee of the rights granted to it hereunder in respect thereof.

     Section 6.9 No Liquidation or Dissolution. Without the prior written direction by the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, no Equityholder shall take any action to liquidate, dissolve or terminate the Issuer, or to authorize or cause any such liquidation, dissolution or termination, until all of the Secured Obligations are paid in full.

     Section 6.10 Monies Held in Trust. Subject to Section 2.1(c) and Section 6.4, each Equityholder shall hold all monies received by it that constitute Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder (including any payment or other benefit in breach of this Section 6.10 or Section 6.11) in trust for the Trustee.

     Section 6.11 No Claims. Subject to Section 6.4, no Equityholder shall claim payment, whether directly or by set-off, lien, counterclaim or otherwise, of any amount that may be or has become due to such Equityholder from the Issuer (other than Expenses in accordance with Section 3.7(a) of the Indenture, net proceeds from any Subordinated Note Issuance and proceeds of the issuance of the Original Class A Notes) until all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, other than if any amount received in respect thereof becomes Issuer Pledged Collateral or is entitled to become Issuer Pledged Collateral or to prevent a claim from becoming time-barred.

     Section 6.12 Notice to Trustee. Upon any sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance, contribution or granting of any Issuer Pledged Equity by an Equityholder, such Equityholder shall cause the transferee (and, if any Issuer Pledged Equity is retained by such Equityholder, the Equityholder) to provide the Trustee with executed signature pages to this Pledge and Security Agreement, which shall set forth the percentage of limited liability company interests of Issuer Pledged Equity held by the transferee and, if applicable, such Equityholder.

     Section 6.13 Other Covenants. Each Equityholder shall:

          (a) file all tax returns and reports required by law to be filed by it and pay all taxes required to be paid by it, except any such taxes that are being diligently contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been set aside on its books, and it shall not file any tax return or report under any name other than its exact legal name;

          (b) maintain, and shall cause the Issuer to maintain, the status of the Issuer as an entity that is not classified as a corporation or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

          (c) cause the Issuer to use commercially reasonable efforts to file any form (or comply with any other administrative formalities) required for an exemption from or a reduction of any withholding tax for which the Issuer is eligible;

          (e) maintain in place all policies and procedures, and take and continue to take all actions, described in the assumptions as to facts relating to the separateness of the Issuer and the Seller set forth in, and forming the basis of, the true sale and non-consolidation opinion delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Purchase Agreements, and comply with the provisions of Section 5.2(o) of the Indenture (as to the Issuer);

          (f) not take any action to cause the Issuer (except as required by law) to become subject to any Voluntary Bankruptcy or Involuntary Bankruptcy;

ARTICLE VIII
REASONABLE CARE

     Section 8.1 Reasonable Care. The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Issuer Pledged Collateral in its possession if the Issuer Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Trustee accords its own property of the type of which the Issuer Pledged Collateral consists, it being understood that the Trustee shall have no responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Issuer Pledged Collateral, whether or not the Trustee has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Issuer Pledged Collateral absent its bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

ARTICLE X
REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT

     Section 10.1 Remedies Upon Event of Default. Subject to Section 4.3 of the Indenture and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Trustee shall have given written notice of such Event of Default to the Equityholders:

          (a) The Trustee may exercise the power of attorney described in Section 7.1 with respect to any of the certificates or other instruments delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to the Issuer Pledged Collateral and may sign, complete and deliver all transfers, proxies and letters of resignation and do all acts and things that the Trustee may in its absolute discretion specify to enable or assist the Trustee to perfect or improve its security over the Capital Securities, to vest ownership of the Capital Securities in the Trustee or its nominee, to provide that the Trustee is registered as the holder of the Capital Securities, to exercise any rights or powers attaching to the Capital Securities, to sell the Capital Securities or otherwise to enforce any of the rights of the Trustee under this Pledge and Security Agreement.

          (b) The Trustee may exercise in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law or the UCC as then in effect in any applicable jurisdiction, and the Trustee may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified below or except as required by mandatory provisions of the UCC and other Applicable Law, sell, subject to Section 11.1, the Issuer Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or at any of the Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Trustee may deem commercially reasonable, irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Issuer Pledged Collateral at any such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property, sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Equityholder, and each Equityholder hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Equityholder agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Equityholder of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Trustee shall not be

obligated to make any sale of Issuer Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Trustee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Trustee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Issuer Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale, absent bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

          (c) Each Equityholder recognizes that the Trustee may elect in its sole discretion to sell all or a part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral to one or more purchasers in privately negotiated transactions in which the purchasers will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Issuer Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Equityholder acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and the Equityholders and the Trustee agree that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Trustee has no obligation to engage in public sales or to delay sale of any Issuer Pledged Collateral to permit the Issuer to register the Issuer Pledged Collateral for a form of public sale thereof requiring registration under the Securities Act.

          (d) Any cash held by the Trustee as Issuer Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Trustee in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.1) by the Trustee first to the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, if any, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Trustee (including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of its counsel), and all reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Trustee in connection therewith, second to the payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and third to each Equityholder or its successors or assigns in respect to its respective Issuer Pledged Collateral as indicated in the signature page hereto (or pursuant to Section 6.12) and in respect to its respective portion of the proceeds from any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral.

          (e) Each Equityholder agrees that:

          (i) in any sale of any of the Issuer Pledged Collateral, whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to:

                    (A) avoid any violation of Applicable Law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Issuer Pledged Collateral); or

                         (B) obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any Governmental Authority or official; and

          (ii) such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Trustee be liable or accountable to any Equityholder for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Issuer Pledged Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction.

In the event that the Seller does not offer to purchase any Issuer Pledged Collateral within 10 Business Days of such offer, the Trustee may sell any remaining Issuer Pledged Collateral to third parties; provided, that such third parties shall have first executed a confidentiality agreement substantially similar to the Confidentiality Agreement and delivered such confidentiality agreement to the Trustee and the Seller.
