(a)    The Debtor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Debtor of this Agreement and the filings contemplated therein have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Debtor and no further action is required by the Debtor.  This Agreement has been duly executed by the Debtor.  This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Debtor, enforceable against the Debtor in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity.

(b)    The Debtor has no place of business or offices where its books of account and records are kept (other than temporarily at the offices of its attorneys or accountants) or places where Collateral is stored or located, except as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto.

(c)    Except for Permitted Liens and as set forth on Schedule B attached hereto, the Debtor is the sole owner of the Collateral, free and clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances, rights or claims (other than rights and claims under any Organizational Document or applicable law), and, subject to the foregoing, are fully authorized to grant the Security Interests.  Except as set forth on Schedule C attached hereto, there is not on file in any governmental or regulatory authority, agency or recording office an effective financing statement, security agreement, license or transfer or any notice of any of the foregoing (other than those that will be filed in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement) covering or affecting any of the Collateral.  Except as set forth on Schedule C attached hereto and except pursuant to this Agreement, as long as this Agreement shall be in effect, the Debtor shall not execute and shall not knowingly permit to be on file in any such office or agency any other financing statement or other document or instrument (except to the extent filed or recorded in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement).

(d)    No written claim has been received that any Collateral or the Debtor’s use of any Collateral violates the rights of any third party.  There has been no adverse decision to the Debtor’s claim of ownership rights in or exclusive rights to use the Collateral in any jurisdiction or to the Debtor’s right to keep and maintain such Collateral in full force and effect, and there is no proceeding involving said rights pending or, to the knowledge of the Debtor, threatened before any court, judicial body, administrative or regulatory agency, arbitrator or other governmental authority.
 
(e)    The Debtor shall at all times maintain its books of account and records relating to the Collateral at its principal place of business and its Collateral at the locations set forth on Schedule A attached hereto and may not relocate such books of account and records or tangible Collateral unless it delivers to the Secured Parties at least thirty (30) days prior to such relocation (i) written notice of such relocation and the new location thereof (which must be within the United States) and (ii) evidence that appropriate financing statements under the UCC and other necessary documents have been filed and recorded and other steps have been taken to perfect the Security Interests to create in favor of the Secured Parties a valid, perfected and continuing perfected first priority lien in the Collateral.

(f)    This Agreement, as of the Effective Date, shall, subject to the terms hereof, create in favor of the Secured Parties a valid first priority security interest in the Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens, securing the payment and performance of the Obligations.  Upon making the filings described in the immediately following paragraph, all security interests created hereunder in any Collateral which may be perfected by filing Uniform Commercial Code financing statements shall have been duly perfected.  Except for (i) the filing of the Uniform Commercial Code financing statements referred to in the immediately following paragraph and (ii) the delivery of the certificates and other instruments provided in Section 3, no action is necessary to create, perfect or protect the security interests created hereunder.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for the foregoing, no consent of any third parties and no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for (x) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, (y) the creation or perfection of the Security Interests created hereunder in the Collateral or (z) the enforcement of the rights of the Agent (as defined below) and the Secured Parties hereunder.

(i)    The capital stock and other equity interests listed on Schedule D hereto (the “Pledged Securities”) except as otherwise noted on Schedule D, represent all capital stock and other equity interests owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company.  All of the Pledged Securities are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and the Company is the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged Securities, free and clear of any lien, security interest or other encumbrance except for the security interests created by this Agreement and other Permitted Liens.

(j)    The ownership and other equity interests in partnerships and limited liability companies (if any) included in the Collateral (the “Pledged Interests”) by their express terms provide that they are securities governed by Article 8 of the UCC.

(k)    Except for Permitted Liens, the Debtor shall at all times on and after the Effective Date maintain the liens and Security Interests provided for hereunder as valid and perfected, first priority liens and security interests in the Collateral in favor of the Secured Parties until this Agreement and the Security Interest hereunder shall be terminated pursuant to Section 14 hereof.  The Debtor hereby agrees to defend the same against the claims of any and all persons and entities.  The Debtor shall safeguard and protect all Collateral for the account of the Secured Parties.  The Debtor, on or about the Effective Date will sign and file on behalf of the Secured Parties one or more initial financing statements pursuant to the UCC in form reasonably satisfactory to the Majority-in-Interest and will pay the cost of filing the same in all public offices wherever filing is, or is deemed by the Majority-in- Interest to be, necessary or desirable to effect the rights and obligations provided for herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Debtor shall pay all fees necessary to maintain the Collateral and the Security Interests hereunder.

(b)    Any representation or warranty of the Debtor in this Agreement or hereby incorporated by this reference to the Purchase Agreement shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made and such breach has caused a substantial diminution in the value of the Collateral or otherwise has a materially adverse effect on the rights or remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder; or
 
7

 
(c)    The failure by the Debtor to observe or perform any of its material obligations hereunder and such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after delivery to the Debtor of notice of such failure by the Required Holders (herein defined) unless such default is capable of cure but cannot be cured within such time frame and the Debtor is using commercially reasonable efforts to cure same in a timely fashion.

If, upon the sale or other disposition of the Collateral, the proceeds thereof are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Debtor will be liable for the deficiency.
