14. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default after the First Lien Termination Date and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent or Agent’s designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral have been assigned to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or that Agent has a security interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the Security Documents.

15. Disposition of Pledged Interests by Agent. None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are registered or qualified under the various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after the First Lien Termination Date and an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration (any Pledged Interests of a Subsidiary or otherwise that are not registered or qualified under various federal or state securities laws of the United States are referred to herein as the “Private Pledged Interests”). Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, Agent may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause the Pledged Interests or any portion thereof to be sold at a private sale, Agent shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm (but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and the failure to do so shall not be considered in determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer the Private Pledged Interests or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable at the private sale thereof; and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner and the Agent shall incur no liability in connection with such sale (other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct).

16. Voting Rights.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and after the First Lien Termination Date, (i) Agent may, at its option, and with 2 Business Days prior notice to any Grantor, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, and all other ownership or consensual rights in respect of the Pledged Interests owned by such Grantor, but under no circumstances is Agent obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Agent duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged Interests, each Grantor hereby appoints Agent, such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Interests in any manner Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

(b) For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it, such Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Agent, vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would materially adversely affect the rights of Agent and the other members of the Secured Parties or the value of the Pledged Interests.

17. Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, and, at the written instruction of the Required Secured Debtholders, shall exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Security Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any of Grantors or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of Agent acting pursuant to the Secured Parties written instructions, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Agent acting pursuant to the Secured Parties written instructions and make it available to Agent at one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Inventory, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days notice to any of Grantors 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 and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Agent 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.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement, each Grantor hereby

 

21


grants to Agent (or its designees or agents) a license to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, other industrial or intellectual property or any property of a similar nature, whether owned by any of Grantors or with respect to which any of Grantors have rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (if so permitted under such license, sublicense, or other agreements), as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of Agent.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Security Documents, or otherwise available to it under applicable law and without the requirement of notice to or upon any of Grantors or any other Person (which notice is hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), (i) with respect to any of Grantors’ Deposit Accounts in which Agent’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-104 of the Code, instruct the bank maintaining such Deposit Account for the applicable Grantor to pay the balance of such Deposit Account to or for the benefit of Agent, and (ii) with respect to any of Grantors’ Securities Accounts in which the Agent’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-106 of the Code, instruct the securities intermediary maintaining such Securities Account for the applicable Grantor to (A) transfer any cash in such Securities Account to or for the benefit of Agent, or (B) liquidate any financial assets in such Securities Account that are customarily sold on a recognized market and transfer the cash proceeds thereof to or for the benefit of Agent.

(d) (i) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any cash held by Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral or Real Property subject to a Mortgage shall be applied against the Secured Obligations as follows:

First, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses, taxes and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Agent) payable to the Agent, the Trustee and each Additional Pari Passu Agent in their respective capacities as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, principal, interest and other amounts payable to the Secured Parties (without priority of any one over any other) in proportion to the unpaid amounts of Secured Obligations with such proceeds applied (i) as among the holders of the Notes, as set forth in the Indenture and (ii) as among the among the holders of Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations, as set forth in the applicable Additional Pari Passu Debt Documents; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations), to the Issuers or as otherwise required by Law.

In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such deficiency.

(ii) In making the determination and allocations required by this Section 17(d), the Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by (i) the Trustee as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Obligations (as defined in the Indenture) and (ii) the applicable Additional Pari Passu Agent as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations and the Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on

 

22


such information (other than as a result of the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct); 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 Agent pursuant to this Section 17(d) shall be (subject to any decree of any court of competent jurisdiction) final (absent manifest error), and the Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by an Additional Pari Passu Agent of any amounts distributed to such Person.

(iii) 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 17(d).

(e) Agent shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each of Grantors, and each Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantors may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by Agent.

18. Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of Agent as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Security Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Security Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Agent, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

19. Marshaling. Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

20. Indemnity and Expenses.

(a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify Agent and the other members of the Secured Parties from and against all claims, lawsuits and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys fees but excluding allocated costs of internal counsel) arising out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement) or any other Security Document to which such Grantor is a party, except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Indenture, the repayment of the Secured Obligations and the resignation or removal of the Agent.

(b) Grantors, jointly and severally, shall, upon demand, pay to Agent all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other advisors fees and

 

23


expenses) which Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement or any other Security Document, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or, upon an Event of Default, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral or Mortgaged Property in accordance with this Agreement and the other Security Documents, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Agent hereunder or any other Security Document or (iv) the failure by any of Grantors to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof or any other Security Document.

(c) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify the Agent from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable and documented out of pocket fees and disbursements of attorneys (other than the allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any Mortgaged Property or any Environmental Actions, Environmental Liabilities and costs or Remedial Actions related in any way to any such Mortgaged Property, excluding any such claims, lawsuits or liabilities to the extent resulting from Hazardous Materials first brought on to or released at the Mortgaged Property, or violations of applicable environmental laws, rules, or regulations by Agent, after foreclosure by the Agent under the Security Documents or that resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party.

21. Merger, Amendments; Etc. THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE INDENTURE AND THE OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any of Grantors herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and each of Grantors to which such amendment applies with the consent, if any, of the Secured Parties required by the Indenture and any Additional Pari Passu Agreement; provided that in the event of an amendment of any provision of any of the Senior Security Agreements, the corresponding provision of this Agreement shall automatically be amended, without the consent of the Agent, on identical or substantially similar terms to such amendment, except for amendments releasing Liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral.

22. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to Agent at its address specified in the Indenture, and to any of the Grantors at their respective addresses specified in the Indenture or Guarantee, as applicable, to any Additional Pari Passu Agent, at its address specified in the Additional Pari Passu Joinder Agreement or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party.

23. Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) have been paid in full in cash in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, (b) be binding upon each of Grantors, and their respective successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns. Upon (i) payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, (ii) sale or disposition of property if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if Issuers certify in writing to Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted under Section 4.10 of the Indenture or the other Security Documents (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) determination that property in which the Grantors and

 

24


their respective Subsidiaries owned no interest at the time the Agent’s Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter, or (iv) expiration or termination of a lease of property in a transaction permitted under the Indenture, the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate with respect to the applicable Collateral and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, Agent will, subject to the terms and provisions of the Indenture, execute and deliver to the applicable Grantor such documents (as provided by such Grantor) including the filing of UCC termination statements, lien releases, mortgage releases, re-assignments of trademarks, reassignment of Clam Quotas to the Issuers, discharges of security interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form), as are necessary or desirable to such Grantor to release, as of record, any and all Liens and all notices of security interests and liens previously filed by Agent with respect to such Collateral. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Indenture, any other Security Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to Agent nor any additional Notes or any Additional Pari Passu Obligations, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by Agent, nor any other act of the Secured Parties, or any of them, shall release any of Grantors from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion.

24. Governing Law.

THE VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

AGENT AND EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT EACH MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION 23(b).

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AGENT AND EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS. AGENT AND EACH GRANTOR REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND

 

25


EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

25. New Subsidiaries. Pursuant to Section 4.17 of the Indenture, and/or any provision of an Additional Pari Passu Agreement any new direct or indirect Subsidiary (whether by acquisition or creation) of Grantor (other than a Grantor that is a Foreign Subsidiary) is required to enter into this Agreement by executing and delivering in favor of Agent a supplement to this Agreement in the form of Annex 1 attached hereto. Upon the execution and delivery of Annex 1 by such new Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Grantor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor hereunder.

26. Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations. On or after the Issue Date, the Issuers may from time to time designate additional obligations as Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations by delivering to the Agent, the Trustee and each Additional Pari Passu Agent (a) a certificate signed by the chief financial officer of any Issuer (i) identifying the obligations so designated and the aggregate principal amount or face amount thereof, stating that such obligations are designated as “Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations” for purposes hereof, (ii) representing that such designation of such obligations complies with the terms of the Indenture and each then extant Additional Pari Passu Agreement, (iii) specifying the name and address of the Additional Pari Passu Agent for such obligations (if other than the Trustee) and (iv) stating that the Grantors have complied with their obligations under Section 6; (b) except in the case of Additional Notes, a fully executed Additional Pari Passu Joinder Agreement (in the form attached as Exhibit B); and (c) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the designation of such obligations as “Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations” does not violate the terms of the Indenture and each then extant Additional Pari Passu Agreement (upon which the Agent may conclusively and exclusively rely).

27. Agent. Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Agent” shall be a reference to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

28. Intercreditor Matters. By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, each Secured Party agrees that it is bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement applicable to such Secured Party.

29. Release of Liens. (a) Liens securing the Notes shall be released as provided in the Indenture and Liens securing the Permitted Additional Parri Passu Obligations shall be released as provided in the Additional Pari Passu Agreement governing such obligations. Liens securing the Notes and Liens securing the Permitted Additional Parri Passu Obligations shall be automatically and without the need for any further action be released:

(i) in whole or in part, as applicable, as to all or any portion of property subject to such Liens which has been taken by eminent domain, condemnation or other similar circumstances;

(ii) in whole upon:

(1) satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture under Section 8.2(b) thereof; or

 

26


(2) a defeasance or covenant defeasance of the Indenture under Article VIII thereof;

(iii) in part, as to any property that (i) is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by an Issuer or any Guarantor (other than to an Issuer or another Guarantor) in a transaction not prohibited by the Indenture at the time of such transfer or disposition or (ii) is owned or at any time acquired by a Guarantor that has been released from its Note Guarantee (as defined in the Indenture), concurrently with the release of such Note Guarantee;

(iv) in whole or in part, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement to the extent that the holders of the first and second priority release their first and second priority Liens (including with respect to dispositions of Collateral), other than in connection with a discharge of first and second priority obligations.

(b) In the event that any Lien is to be released pursuant to this Section 29, and any Grantor requests that the Agent furnish a written disclaimer, release or quitclaim of any interest in such property under the Security Documents, upon receipt of an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel to the effect that such release complies with this Section 29 and specifying the provision in Section 29(a) pursuant to which such release is being made (upon which the Agent may exclusively and conclusively rely), the Agent shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to such Grantor such an instrument in the form provided by such Grantor, and providing for release without recourse and shall take such other action as such Grantor may reasonably request and is necessary to effect such release.

30. Patriot Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account. The parties to this Agreement agree that they will provide Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas with such information as it may request in order for Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas to satisfy the requirements of the USA Patriot Act.

31. Force Majeure. The Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility) for so long as such occurrence continues; provided, however, that the Agent agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform such act, duty, obligation or responsibility notwithstanding such occurrence.

32. Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (a) no Grantor shall be in default or breach hereunder for failure to take any action hereunder if the Grantor used its commercially reasonable efforts to take such action and (b) if the First Lien Termination Date has not occurred, no Grantor shall be required to take any action hereunder if a similar action is not required to be taken under the Senior Security Agreements.

 

27


33. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Security Document mutatis mutandis.

(b) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(c) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in connection with the interpretation of any provision hereof.

(d) The pronouns used herein shall include, when appropriate, either gender and both singular and plural, and the grammatical construction of sentences shall conform thereto.

(e) Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Security Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Agreement or any other Security Document refer to this Agreement or such other Security Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Security Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Security Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). Any reference herein or in any other Security Document to the satisfaction or repayment in full of the Secured Obligations shall mean the repayment in full in cash of all Obligations other than unasserted contingent indemnification Secured Obligations that are not required by the provisions of the Indenture to be repaid. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Security Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record.
