(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indenture or any Indenture Document, the Grantors shall not be required under this Section 4.04 or otherwise under this Agreement, the Indenture or any Indenture Document, to (A) to perfect the Security Interests and/or Liens granted by this Agreement by any means other than by (1) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in the office of the secretary of state (or similar filing office) of the jurisdiction of incorporation or formation of the Company or such Guarantor, (2) filings in United States government offices with respect to registered and applied for United States Intellectual Property owned by the Company or any Guarantor, (3) delivery to the Collateral Agent to be held in its possession of all Collateral consisting of certificated securities, Chattel Paper, promissory notes or Instruments as required by this Agreement, and (4) if, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of the Company, after taking into account any pledge of Available Eligible Assets pursuant to Section 4.14 of the Indenture, the Collateral Value does not equal or exceed the Threshold Amount as of such date, entry into Deposit Account Control Agreements and securities account control agreements (other than with respect to Excluded Deposit Accounts) in accordance with Section 4.09, (B) to perfect the security interest granted under the Security Documents in Letter-of-Credit Rights other than pursuant to the filings under the Uniform Commercial Code and (C) to complete any filings or other action with respect to the perfection of the security interests, including of any Intellectual Property, created under the Security Documents in any jurisdiction outside of the United States other than the use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a perfected security interest in respect of any Capital Stock of a Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiary constituting Collateral in the jurisdiction of formation of such Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.10. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all financing and continuation statement recording and/or filing fees, charges and recording and similar taxes relating to this Indenture, the Security Documents and any amendments hereto or thereto and any other instruments of further assurance required pursuant hereto or thereto.
SECTION 4.05 Taxes; Encumbrances. At its option and upon reasonable prior notice to the Grantors (which notice shall not be required at any time that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) the Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral (other than Permitted Liens), and may take any other action which the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to repair, maintain or preserve any of the Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Indenture, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for any payment made or any expense incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice therefor setting forth such expenses; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation to undertake any of the foregoing and shall have no liability on account of any action so undertaken except where there is a specific finding in a judicial proceeding (in which the Collateral Agent has had an opportunity to be heard), from which finding no further appeal is available, that the Collateral Agent had engaged in willful misconduct or acted in
11
a grossly negligent manner; provided, further, that the making of any such payments or the taking of any such action by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default arising from the Grantors failure to have made such payments or taken such action.
SECTION 4.06 Insurance. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantors true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact), exercisable only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Collateral under any Security Document under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. The Grantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Collateral Agent named as an additional insured or loss payee, as applicable, under liability, property and business interruption insurance policies maintained by Grantors. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Grantors shall be entitled to receive, retain and use the proceeds of any claims paid under any policies of insurance and to make all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance and any claims thereunder.
SECTION 4.07 Intellectual Property. (a) Each Grantor shall give the Collateral Agent written notice (with reasonable detail), within thirty (30) days after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company of the occurrence of any of the following since the Issue Date or, after the date of the first notice delivered pursuant to this Section 4.07, since the date of the most recent notice delivered pursuant to this Section 4.07:
(i) Such Grantors filing applications for registrations of, being issued a registration in or receiving an issuance of any U.S. Copyright, Patent or Trademark, or otherwise acquiring ownership of any registered or applied for U.S. Copyright, Patent or Trademark (other than the acquisition by such Grantor of the right to sell products containing the trademarks of others in the ordinary course of such Grantors business); or
(ii) The filing and acceptance of a statement of use or an amendment to allege use in connection with any of such Grantors intent-to-use Trademark applications.
(b) The provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply to any such additional property or rights described in subsection (a) of this Section 4.07, all of which shall be deemed to be and treated as Intellectual Property as applicable, within the meaning of this Agreement.
(c) Each of the Grantors shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as may be reasonably necessary or required or as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request including but not limited to notices of security interests substantially in the form of Exhibit D (Notice of Security Interest in Trademarks and Patents) or Exhibit E (Notice of Security Interest in Copyrights), as applicable, attached hereto, to evidence the Collateral Agents security interest in any Intellectual Property in the United States, including with respect to any Intellectual Property described in subsection (a) of this Section 4.07 at the time of delivery of the notice specified in subsection (a) of this Section 4.07, (including, without limitation, filings with the PTO, the Copyright Office or any similar government office, as applicable), and each of the Grantors hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact for the sole purpose of executing and filing all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all such acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; provided, however, the Collateral Agents taking of such action shall not be a condition to the creation or perfection of the security interest created hereby.
12
SECTION 4.08 Registration of Pledged Collateral; Voting; Dividends.
(a) Registration of Pledged Collateral. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent has given notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, at the option of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor will permit any registerable Pledged Collateral owned by it to be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee at any time.
(b) Exercise of Rights in Pledged Collateral. (i) Without in any way limiting the foregoing and subject to clause (ii) below, each Grantor shall have the right to exercise all voting rights or other rights relating to the Pledged Collateral owned by it for all purposes not inconsistent with this Security Agreement, the Indenture or any other Security Document.
(ii) Each Grantor will permit the Collateral Agent or its nominee at any time during the existence of an Event of Default, without notice, to exercise all voting rights or other rights relating to the Pledged Collateral owned by it, including, without limitation, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges, or options pertaining to any Capital Stock or Investment Property constituting such Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.
(iii) Subject to clause (iv) below, such Grantor shall be entitled to collect and receive for its own use all dividends and interest paid in respect of the Pledged Collateral owned by it.
(iv) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if the Collateral Agent has given notice to the relevant Grantor that such Grantors right to receive distributions in respect of any Pledged Collateral is terminated, any distributions in respect of any Pledged Collateral owned by such Grantor, whenever paid or made, shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent to hold as Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by such Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Grantor, and be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).
SECTION 4.09 Deposit Account Control Agreements and Securities Account Control Agreement. Each Grantor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Collateral Agent, within 60 days after the applicable Financial Statement Availability Date (or, in the case of any new deposit account (other than an Excluded Deposit Account) opened after such Financial Statement Availability Date and prior to the next Financial Statement Availability Date, within 45 days after such deposit account is opened), a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly executed on behalf of each financial institution holding a deposit account (other than an Excluded Deposit Account) of such Grantor and a control agreement duly executed on behalf of each financial institution holding a securities account of such Grantor if, as of the last day of the most recent quarter for which the Financial Statement Availability Date has occurred, after taking into account any pledge of Available Eligible Assets pursuant to Section 4.14 of the Indenture, the Collateral Value does not equal or exceed the Threshold Amount.
SECTION 4.10 Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiaries. Each Grantor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to execute or cause to be executed, by no later than 90 days after the date on which any Foreign Subsidiary would qualify as a Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiary, a pledge agreement (or comparable document to effectuate a perfected pledge of the Capital Stock of such Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiary) governed by the laws of the jurisdiction of formation of such Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiary in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties with respect to the outstanding Capital Stock of such Material Pledged Foreign Subsidiary constituting Collateral and take all such further actions as may be necessary under such laws or as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to perfect the Collateral Agents Security Interest and Lien in such Capital Stock. Each Grantor further agrees to deliver to the Collateral Agent the stock certificates (if any) representing the Capital Stock subject to such pledge, stock powers with respect thereto executed in blank, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
13
SECTION 4.11 Pledged Partnership or Limited Liability Company Interests. Each Grantor agrees that with respect to any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership owned by such Grantor and constituting Collateral hereunder that is not a security within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, such Grantor shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a security within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate. Each Grantor shall cause each partnership or limited liability company that is a Subsidiary of such Grantor the Capital Stock of which is included in the Pledged Collateral to amend its partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement as requested by the Collateral Agent to provide that, in connection with the valid exercise of the Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies, the Collateral Agent may (i) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or part of such interests (including through a sale, transfer or disposition in connection with any foreclosure) without any further consent from any partner or member or (ii) acquire such interests and become a partner or member or be substituted for a partner or member under the partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement, as applicable, without the consent of any partner or member, in each case, without having to comply with any of the restrictions on the sale, transfer or other disposition of the interests set forth in the partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement. Each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, to be held in the Collateral Agents possession, all Collateral consisting of certificated securities or other certificated Capital Stock in accordance with Section 7.03.
ARTICLE 5
SECTION 5.01 Power of Attorney. Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantors true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, and in such capacity the Collateral Agent shall have the right, with power of substitution for each Grantor and in each Grantors name or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, (a) at any time, whether or not an Event of Default has occurred, to take actions required to be taken by the Grantors under Section 2.01 of this Agreement, and (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (ii) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoices, schedules of Collateral, freight or express receipts, or bills of lading storage receipts, warehouse receipts or other documents of title relating to any of the Collateral; (iii) to sign the name of any Grantor on any notice to such Grantors Account Debtors; (iv) to sign the name of any Grantor on any proof of claim in bankruptcy against Account Debtors, and on notices of lien, claims of mechanics liens, or assignments or releases of mechanics liens securing the Accounts; (v) to receive and open each Grantors mail, remove any Proceeds of Collateral therefrom and turn over the balance of such mail either to the Company or to any trustee in bankruptcy or receiver of a Grantor, or other legal representative of a Grantor whom the Collateral Agent may reasonably determine to be the appropriate person to whom to so turn over such mail; (vi) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity (including any action for past, present, and future infringement of any IP Collateral) in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (vii) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (viii) to take all such action as may be reasonably necessary to obtain the payment of any letter of credit and/or bankers acceptance of which any Grantor is a beneficiary; (ix) to repair, manufacture, assemble, complete, package, deliver, alter or supply goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any customer of any Grantor; (x) to use, license, assign or transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all General Intangibles of any Grantor, subject to those restrictions to which such Grantor is subject under
14
applicable law and by contract, and any person may conclusively rely upon a statement of a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent that an Event of Default has occurred and that the Collateral Agent is authorized to exercise such rights and remedies; (xi) to supplement and amend from time to time Exhibits A, B and C of this Agreement to include any newly developed, applied for, registered, or acquired Intellectual Property of such Grantor and any intent-to-use Trademark applications for which a statement of use or an amendment to allege use has been filed and accepted by the PTO; and (xii) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent was the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, or to present or file any claim or notice. It is understood and agreed that the appointment of the Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Grantors for the purposes set forth above is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. The appointment of the Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Grantors for the purposes set forth above shall terminate upon the full and final payment of the Companys and the Guarantors respective Obligations under the Indenture, the Notes and the Notes Guarantees (other than contingent obligations which have yet to accrue).
SECTION 5.02 Pledged Collateral. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent as its proxy and attorney-in-fact, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with respect to its Pledged Collateral, including the right to vote any of the Pledged Collateral, with full power of substitution to do so. In addition to the right to vote any of the Pledged Collateral, the appointment of the Collateral Agent as proxy and attorney-in-fact shall include the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of any of the 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 and attorney-in-fact shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any of the Pledged Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any Person (including the issuer of the Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof), upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
SECTION 5.03 No Obligation to Act. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to do any of the acts or to exercise any of the powers authorized by Section 5.01, but if the Collateral Agent elects to do any such act or to exercise any of such powers, it shall not be accountable for more than it actually receives as a result of such exercise of power, and shall not be responsible to any Grantor for any act or omission to act except for any act or omission to act as to which there is a final determination not subject to appeal made in a judicial proceeding by a court of competent jurisdiction (in which proceeding the Collateral Agent has had an opportunity to be heard) which determination includes a specific finding that the subject act or omission to act constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. The provisions of Section 5.01 shall in no event relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Security Document with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to proceed in any particular manner with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof, or in any way limit the exercise by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any other or further right which it may have on the date of this Agreement or hereafter, whether hereunder, under any other Security Document, by applicable law or otherwise.
SECTION 5.04 Limitation on Duty of Collateral Agent in Respect of Collateral.
(a) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent
15
or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.
(b) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent (as determined by a final nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction), for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.
(c) Each Grantor shall remain liable to observe and perform in all material respects all of the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument constituting Collateral, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance.
ARTICLE 6
Remedies
SECTION 6.01 Remedies upon Default. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement (if any), after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or other applicable law. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default shall include, without limitation, the right to take any or all of the following actions at the same or different times, in each case, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement:
(a) With respect to any Collateral consisting of Accounts, General Intangibles (including Payment Intangibles), Instruments, Chattel Paper, Documents, and Investment Property, the Collateral Agent may collect the Collateral with or without the taking of possession of any of the Collateral.
(b) With respect to any Collateral consisting of Accounts, the Collateral Agent may: (i) demand, collect and receive any amounts relating thereto, as the Collateral Agent may determine; (ii) commence and prosecute any actions in any court for the purposes of collecting any such Accounts and enforcing any other rights in respect thereof; (iii) defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; (iv) without limiting the Collateral Agents rights set forth in Section 5.01 hereof, receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to any Grantor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other
16
instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to such Accounts or securing or relating to such Accounts, on behalf of and in the name of such Grantor; and (v) sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any such Accounts or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent was the absolute owner thereof for all purposes.
(c) With respect to any Collateral consisting of Pledged Collateral, the Collateral Agent may (i) exercise all rights of any Grantor with respect thereto, including without limitation, the right to exercise all voting and corporate rights at any meeting of the shareholders of the issuer of any Pledged Collateral and to exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any Pledged Collateral as if the Collateral Agent was the absolute owner thereof, including the right to exchange, at its discretion, any and all of any Pledged Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the issuer thereof, all without liability; (ii) transfer such Collateral at any time to itself, or to its nominee, and receive the income thereon and hold the same as Collateral hereunder or apply it to the Secured Obligations; and (iii) demand, sue for, collect or make any compromise or settlement it deems desirable. The Grantors recognize that (w) the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. § 77 (as amended and in effect, the Securities Act), or the securities laws of various states (the Blue Sky Laws), but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, (x) that private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Pledged Collateral were sold at public sales, (y) that neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any obligation to delay sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Pledged Collateral to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act or the Blue Sky Laws, and (z) that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Grantor shall be required to register, or cause the registration of, any Pledged Collateral under the Securities Act or any Blue Sky Laws.
(d) With respect to any Collateral consisting of Inventory, Goods, and Equipment, the Collateral Agent may conduct one or more going out of business sales, in the Collateral Agents own right or by one or more agents and contractors. Such sale(s) may be conducted upon any premises owned, leased, or occupied by any Grantor. The Collateral Agent and any such agent or contractor, in conjunction with any such sale, may augment the Inventory with other goods (all of which other goods shall remain the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor). Any amounts realized from the sale of such goods which constitute augmentations to the Inventory (net of an allocable share of the costs and expenses incurred in their disposition) shall be the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor and neither any Grantor nor any Person claiming under or in right of any Grantor shall have any interest therein. Each purchaser at any such going out of business sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor.
(e) With or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, the Collateral Agent may peaceably enter upon, occupy, and use any premises owned or occupied by each Grantor, and may exclude the Grantors from such premises or portion thereof as may have been so entered upon, occupied, or used by the Collateral Agent to the extent the
17
Collateral Agent deems such exclusion reasonably necessary to preserve and protect the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to remove any of the Collateral from any such premises upon the Collateral Agents taking possession thereof, and may render any Collateral unusable to the Grantors. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable to any Grantor for use or occupancy by the Collateral Agent of any premises pursuant to this Section 6.01, nor for any charge (such as wages for the Grantors employees and utilities) incurred in connection with the Collateral Agents exercise of the Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies (as defined herein) hereunder.
(f) The Collateral Agent may require any Grantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at the Grantors sole risk and expense at a place or places which are reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and such Grantor.
(g) Each Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to applicable law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor.
(h) Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value, or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which event the Collateral Agent shall provide the Grantors such notice as may be practicable under the circumstances), the Collateral Agent shall give the Grantors at least ten (10) days prior written notice, by authenticated record, of the date, time and place of any proposed public sale, and of the date after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral may be made. Each Grantor agrees that such written notice shall satisfy all requirements for notice to that Grantor which are imposed under the UCC or other applicable law with respect to the exercise of the Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies upon default. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale or other disposition of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned.
(i) Any 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 sale or other disposition, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. If any of the Collateral is sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of by the Collateral Agent on credit, the Secured Obligations shall not be deemed to have been reduced as a result thereof unless and until payment in full is received thereon by the Collateral Agent.
(j) At any public or private sale made pursuant to this Section 6.01, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by applicable law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor, the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party from any Grantor on account of the Secured Obligations as a credit against the purchase price, and the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor.
18
(k) For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof. The Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full. Any such sale will be deemed to have been made at a commercially reasonable price.
(l) 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 Collateral and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.
(m) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor hereby waives all rights of redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.
(n) Give notice of sole control or any other instruction under any Deposit Account Control Agreement or any other control agreement with any securities intermediary and take any action therein with respect to such Collateral.
With respect to exercise of right and remedies hereunder, including any enforcement matters, the Collateral Agent will be permitted to exercise such enforcement actions upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default only at the direction of the Trustee or the requisite Holders pursuant to the Indenture.
SECTION 6.02 Application of Proceeds.
(a) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement (if any), after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of the Collateral, as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, or any Collateral granted under any other of the Security Documents, in the following order of priority:
(i) first, to amounts owing to the Collateral Agent or the Trustee in their respective capacity as such in accordance with the terms of the Indenture;
(ii) second, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (the amounts so applied to be distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Secured Obligations) owed to them on the date of any such distribution; and
(iii) third, to the payment to the Company or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.
(b) If, despite the provisions of this Agreement, any Secured Party shall receive any payment or other recovery in excess of its portion of payments on account of the Secured Obligations to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Agreement, such Secured Party shall hold such payment or other recovery in trust for the benefit of all Secured Parties hereunder for distribution in accordance with this Section 6.02.
(c) In making the determinations and allocations required by this Section 6.02, the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by the Trustee as to the amounts of unpaid principal
19
and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Secured Obligations, and the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information, provided that nothing in this sentence shall prevent any Grantor from contesting any amounts claimed by any Secured Party in any information so supplied. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be (subject to any decree of any court of competent jurisdiction) final (absent manifest error).
(d) The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement and the Indenture. Upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the purchase money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale or other disposition shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold or otherwise disposed of and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.
ARTICLE 7
Perfection of Security Interest
SECTION 7.01 Perfection by Filing.

No delay or omission by the Collateral Agent in exercising or enforcing any of the Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies shall operate as, or constitute, a waiver thereof. No waiver by the Collateral Agent of any Event of Default or of any Default under any other agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other Event of Default or other Default hereunder or under any other agreement. No single or partial exercise of any of the Collateral Agents Rights or Remedies, and no express or implied agreement or transaction of whatever nature entered into between the Collateral Agent and any Person, at any time, shall preclude the other or further exercise of the Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies. No waiver by the Collateral Agent of any of the Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies on any one occasion shall be deemed a waiver on any subsequent occasion, nor shall it be deemed a continuing waiver. The Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies may be exercised at such time or times and in such order of preference as the Collateral Agent may determine. The Collateral Agents Rights and Remedies may be exercised without resort or regard to any other source of satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. No waiver of any provisions of this Agreement or any other Security Document or consent to any departure by any Grantor 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 Grantor in any case shall entitle such Grantor or any other Grantor 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 between the Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to whom such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Sections 10.01 and 10.02 of the Indenture.

SECTION 8.11 Counterparts. This Agreement 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 Agreement by telecopy, .pdf or e-mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Each party to this Agreement hereby waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any such court or that such suit is brought in an inconvenient forum and agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against a Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(b) Each of the Grantors agrees that any action commenced by any Grantor asserting any claim or counterclaim arising under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Security Document shall be brought solely in a court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or any federal court sitting therein, as the Collateral Agent may elect in its sole discretion, and consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any such action.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Security Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 8.15 Additional Grantors. If, after the date hereof, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, any Grantor desires to cause any Subsidiary to become a party hereto or any Person is required by the Indenture to become a party hereto, such Grantor shall cause such Person to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit G and such Person shall thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor party hereto and shall be deemed to have granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the security interest described in such Joinder Agreement and Article 2 hereof.
SECTION 8.16 Intercreditor Agreement.

24
or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment, discretion or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Indenture and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and the Grantors.
