NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Noteholders to purchase the Notes from the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement, each Grantor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as follows:
Section 1. Guarantee.
(a) Guarantee. Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Company when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Company Obligations. Guarantors shall mean each Grantor other than the Company. Company Obligations shall mean the unpaid principal of and interest on (including interest accruing after the maturity of the Notes and interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) the Notes and all other obligations and liabilities of the Company to the Collateral Agent or to any Noteholder, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter incurred, which may arise under, out of, or in connection with, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any other document made, delivered or given in connection herewith or therewith, whether on account of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including all fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Collateral Agent or to any Noteholder that are required to be paid by the Company pursuant to the terms of any Transaction Document).
-2-
(i) Anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 1(b)).
(ii) Each Guarantor agrees that the Company Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 1 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder hereunder.
(iii) The guarantee contained in this Section 1 shall remain in full force and effect until all the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) shall have been satisfied by payment in full. Obligations shall mean (i) in the case of the Company, the Company Obligations, and (ii) in the case of each Guarantor, its Guarantor Obligations. Guarantor Obligations shall mean with respect to any Guarantor, all obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor which may arise under or in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 1) or any other Transaction Document, in each case whether on account of guarantee obligations, reimbursement obligations, fees, indemnities, costs, expenses or otherwise (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel to the Collateral Agent or to the Noteholders that are required to be paid by such Guarantor pursuant to Section 22 hereof).
(iv) No payment made by the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other person or received or collected by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder from the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Company Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Company Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Company Obligations), remain liable for the Company Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Obligations are paid in full (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable).
(b) Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantors right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 1(c). The provisions of this Section 1(b) shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.
-3-
(c) No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder against the Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder for the payment of the Company Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders by the Company on account of the Company Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Company Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be applied against the Company Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine.
(d) Amendments, etc. with respect to the Company Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Company Obligations made by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder may be rescinded by the Collateral Agent or such Noteholder and any of the Company Obligations continued, and the Company Obligations, or the liability of any other person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder, and the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, waived, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part pursuant to the terms of thereof, as the Collateral Agent (or the Required Noteholders) may reasonably deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder for the payment of the Company Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Noteholder shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Company Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 1 or any property subject thereto.
-4-
(e) Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Company Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder upon the guarantee contained in this Section 1 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 1; the Company Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section; and all dealings between the Company and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 1. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Company or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Company Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 1 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Note Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any of the Company Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder, (b) any defense, setoff or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Company or any other person against the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Company or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Company for the Company Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 1, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Company Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Company, any other Guarantor or any other person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Company, any other Guarantor or any other person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof demand shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
(f) Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 1 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Company Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
-5-
Section 2. Grant of Security. Each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in such Grantors right, title and interest in and to each type of property described below, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, wherever located, and whether now or hereafter existing or arising (collectively, the Collateral):

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions set forth in this Section 2 or in any Transaction Document, no Excluded Property shall constitute Collateral under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, Excluded Property shall mean (1) any property to the extent that such grant of a security interest (x) is prohibited by any applicable Requirement of Law, (y) requires a consent not obtained of any Governmental Authority pursuant to such applicable Requirement of Law or (z) is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or requires any consent not obtained under, any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing or giving rise to such property or, in the case of any Security Collateral (other than any of the foregoing issued by a Grantor), any applicable shareholder or similar agreement, except to the extent that such Requirement of Law or the term in such contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document or shareholder or similar agreement providing for such prohibition, breach, default or termination or requiring such consent is ineffective under applicable law, (2) any lease, license or other agreement or any property that is subject to a purchase money Lien or capital lease or similar arrangement (in each case permitted by the Notes and for so long as subject to such purchase money Lien, capital lease or similar arrangement), in each case to the extent that a grant of a Lien therein would violate or invalidate such lease, license or agreement or such purchase money, capital lease or similar arrangement or create a right of termination in favor of any party thereto (other than the Company or a Guarantor), except to the extent that such lease, license or other agreement or other document providing for such violation or invalidation or termination right is ineffective under applicable law (it being understood that Excluded Property shall not include proceeds and Receivables in respect of the foregoing), (3) any Intellectual Property, (4) any property to the extent a security interest in such property would result in material adverse tax consequences as reasonably determined by the Company and the Collateral Agent, (5) any equity interests, including any equity interests of the Company or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of
-8-
the Company, (6) all leasehold interests in real property, and (7) any Excluded Account. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Grantors shall not be required to perfect the Collateral Agents security interest in (i) motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title to the extent a Lien thereon cannot be perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement, (ii) Letter-of-Credit Rights, (iii) Disbursement Accounts and (iv) any property as to which the Collateral Agent shall agree in writing that the cost of obtaining a security interest or perfection thereof would be excessive in relation to the value of the security to be afforded thereby.
Section 3. Security for Obligations. This Agreement secures, in the case of each Grantor, the payment of all Obligations of such Grantor or Subsidiary of the Company owing to the Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures, as to each Grantor, the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by such Grantor or Subsidiary of the Company, as applicable, to any Secured Party but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any of the Company, the Guarantors and other Subsidiaries of the Company.
Section 4. Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in such Grantors Collateral to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the extent set forth therein to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (c) no Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.
Section 5. Delivery and Control of Certain Account and Security Collateral. (a) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, all certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Debt shall be promptly delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent except to the extent that such transfer or assignment is prohibited by applicable law.
(b) With respect to any Security Collateral representing interests in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest, such Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts (or in the case of a wholly owned Subsidiary, take all actions necessary) to cause (i) the issuers of such Security Collateral and (ii) any securities intermediary which is the holder of any such Security Collateral, to cause the Collateral Agent to have and retain, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Control over such Security Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing, such Grantor will, with respect to any such Security Collateral held with a securities intermediary, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such securities intermediary to enter into a control agreement with the Collateral Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, giving the Collateral Agent Control, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.
-9-
(c) With respect to any securities account and any Security Collateral that constitutes a security entitlement, within 60 days following the Closing Date (or such later date as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably agree), the relevant Grantor will cause the securities intermediary with respect to such security account or security entitlement to identify in its records the Collateral Agent as the entitlement holder thereof or enter into a control agreement with the Collateral Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, giving the Collateral Agent Control, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.
(d) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall cause the Security Collateral, to be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or such of its nominees as the Collateral Agent shall direct, subject only to the revocable rights specified in Section 13(a). In addition, the Collateral Agent shall have the right upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to convert Security Collateral consisting of financial assets credited to any securities account or the L/C Cash Deposit Account to Security Collateral consisting of financial assets held directly by the Collateral Agent, and to convert Security Collateral consisting of financial assets held directly by the Collateral Agent to Security Collateral consisting of financial assets credited to any securities account or the L/C Cash Deposit Account.
(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will notify each issuer of Security Collateral granted by it hereunder that such Security Collateral is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.
(f) With respect to any DDAs or Lock Boxes maintained by any Grantor, within 60 days following the Closing Date (or such later date as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably agree) (the Cash Control Implementation Date), the relevant Grantor shall (i) enter into (A) an Account Control Agreement with the banks with which any Grantor maintains DDAs and securities accounts, with respect to each DDA and securities account (other than any Excluded Accounts or Disbursement Accounts) (collectively, the Controlled DDA Accounts) and (B) a Lock Box Agreement with the banks with which any Grantor maintains a Lock Box, with respect to each Lock Box (collectively, the Controlled Lock Box Accounts), and (ii) with respect to any Account Control Agreements in effect on the Closing Date relating to Controlled DDA Accounts and Controlled Lock Box Accounts, cause the relevant banks to amend and restate such Account Control Agreement to add the Collateral Agent as a secured party (or other similar term used therein) thereunder. If, at any time from and after Cash Control Implementation Date, any cash or cash equivalents owned by any Grantor that constitute Collateral are deposited to any DDA, securities account or Lock Box Account, or held or invested in any manner, other than in a Controlled Account (or a Disbursement Account or an Excluded Account), the Collateral Agent (with the consent of the ABL Agent) may require the applicable Grantor to close such account and have all funds therein transferred to a Controlled
-10-
Account, and all future deposits made to a Controlled Account (other than with respect to cash on deposit in an Excluded Account or Disbursement Account). The Grantors may close DDAs or Controlled Accounts and/or open new DDAs or Controlled Accounts, subject to the execution and delivery to the ABL Agent and the Collateral Agent of appropriate Account Control Agreements or Lock Box Agreements, as applicable, consistent with the provisions of this Section 5(f) and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the ABL Agent and the Collateral Agent.
Section 6. [Reserved].
Section 7. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and warrants as follows:
(a) Such Grantors exact legal name, chief executive office, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number and Federal Employer Identification Number as of the date hereof is set forth in Schedule V hereto. Within the five years preceding the date hereof, such Grantor has not changed its legal name, chief executive office, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number or Federal Employer Identification Number from those set forth in Schedule V hereto except as set forth in Schedule VI hereto. Each of the trade names owned and used by any Grantor in the operation of its business (e.g. billing, advertising, etc.) are set forth in Schedule V hereto.
(b) Since the date four (4) months prior to the date hereof, each Grantor has made or entered into only the mergers and acquisitions set forth on Schedule XI hereto.

Such person shall be referred to as an Additional Grantor and each reference in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to Grantor or Guarantor shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, each reference in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to the Collateral shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral granted by such Additional Grantor and each reference in this Agreement to a Schedule shall also mean and be a reference to the schedules attached to such Security Agreement Supplement.

Section 25. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments Under the Notes. This Agreement shall create a continuing guaranty and continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) continue in effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no Obligations outstanding) until (i) the Notes have terminated pursuant to their express terms and (ii) all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) have been paid in full and no commitments of the Collateral Agent or the Noteholders which would give rise to any Obligations are outstanding, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, permitted transferees and permitted assigns.

Section 26. [Reserved].
Section 27. Release; Termination. (a) Upon any disposition of any item of Collateral of any Grantor as permitted by the Transaction Documents and receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written certification by the Company that such disposition or other event, as applicable, is not permitted under the terms of the Transaction Documents (which written certification the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively without further inquiry), then, in the case of the foregoing clause (i), the security interests granted under this Agreement by such Grantor in such Collateral or in the assets of such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall immediately terminate and
-25-
automatically be released and, in the case of the foregoing clause (ii), Collateral Agent will, in each case and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, promptly deliver at the Grantors request to such Grantor all notes and other instruments representing any Pledged Debt, Receivables or other Collateral so released, and Collateral Agent will, at such Grantors expense, promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request in writing to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; provided, that, no such documents shall be required unless such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date such documents are required by Grantor, or such lesser period of time agreed by the Collateral Agent, a written request for release describing the item of Collateral and the consideration to be received in the sale, transfer or other disposition and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a form of release for execution by the Collateral Agent (which form shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent) and a certificate of such Grantor to the effect that the transaction will be in compliance with the Transaction Documents.
(b) At such time as the Obligations shall have been paid in full, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Collateral Agent shall promptly deliver to such Grantor any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request in writing to evidence such termination. At the request and sole expense of the Company, a Guarantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Capital Stock of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of.
(c) The Noteholders irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent to and the Collateral Agent shall upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written certification by the Company that such release or other event, as applicable, is not prohibited under the terms of the Transaction Documents (which written certification the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively without further inquiry):
(i) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Transaction Document if required or otherwise approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, including pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement;
(ii) release the Company or any Guarantor from its obligations under the Transaction Documents if such person (i) ceases to be a Subsidiary or (ii) becomes an Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, as a result of a transaction or designation permitted under the terms of the Transaction Documents; provided that no such release shall occur with respect to an entity that becomes an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the Company or any Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of the ABL Facility unless and until each guarantor is (or is being simultaneously) released from its guarantee with respect to the ABL Facility;
-26-
(iii) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Transaction Document on any assets that are excluded from the Collateral; and
(iv) enter into or amend an intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is permitted to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written certification by the Company that such disposition or other event, as applicable, is not prohibited under the terms of the Transaction Documents (which written certification the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively without further inquiry), without notice to or vote or consent of, any Noteholder, take such actions as shall be reasonably requested in writing by the Company as necessary or desirable to release, or document the release, by the Collateral Agent, of the security interest in any Collateral being sold, disposed of or transferred in a transaction permitted by the Transaction Documents, in each case to a person other than the Company and its Subsidiaries, and to release any guarantee obligations under any Transaction Documents of any person being sold, disposed of or transferred to a person other than the Company or its Subsidiaries, or no longer required to provide a guaranty hereunder to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such sales or dispositions of assets in accordance with the Transaction Documents.
Section 28. Right of Setoff. If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Noteholder shall have the right, in addition to and not in limitation of any right which any such Noteholder may have under Applicable Law or otherwise, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Noteholder to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any of and all the obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents held by such Noteholder, irrespective of whether or not such Noteholder shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Transaction Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Noteholder under this Section 28 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Noteholder may have. No Noteholder will, or will permit any of its successors or permitted assigns to, exercise its rights under this Section 28 without the consent of the Required Noteholders. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE THE COLLATERAL AGENT TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE THE SETOFF UNDER THIS SECTION ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
-27-
Section 29. Appointment and Administration by Collateral Agent.
(a) Each Noteholder hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and as Second Priority Representative under the Intercreditor Agreement. The general administration of this Agreement and the related security documents and instruments shall be by the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such and, with respect to the Intercreditor Agreement, as Second Priority Representative. By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Noteholders each hereby (a) irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent (i) to enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and (ii) at its discretion, to take or refrain from taking such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise or refrain from exercising such powers under the Transaction Documents as are delegated by the terms hereof or thereof, as appropriate, together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto, and (b) agrees and consents to all of the provisions of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. All Collateral shall be held or administered by the Collateral Agent (or its duly-appointed agent) for its own benefit and for the ratable benefit of the other Secured Parties in their capacity as such and no Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) shall be required to execute this Agreement as a party thereto. The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except as set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, nor shall it have any fiduciary relationship with any other Secured Party, and no implied covenants, responsibilities, duties, obligations, or liabilities shall be read into the Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.
(b) Any occasion requiring or permitting an approval, consent, discretion, waiver, election or other action on the part of the Noteholders, shall be taken by the Collateral Agent (upon receipt by the Collateral Agent from the Company of the Note Register, or certification of the Noteholders if the Company fails to provide such Note Register, in accordance with clause (m)), for and on behalf or for the benefit of all Secured Parties upon the direction of the Required Noteholders, and any such action shall be binding on all Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent, when acting on behalf of the Secured Parties, may execute any of its respective duties under this Agreement by or through any of its officers, agents and employees, and neither the Collateral Agent nor its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any other Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, or be responsible to any Noteholder for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss, except to the extent of any liability imposed by law by reason of the Collateral Agents own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Collateral Agent nor its directors, officers, agents and employees shall in any event be liable to any Noteholder for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant to instructions received by it from the Required Noteholders, or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected by it. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be: (i) responsible to any Noteholder for the due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any recital, statement, warranty or representation in, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any related agreement, document or order; (ii) required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the
-28-
performance or observance by the Company or any Guarantor of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents; (iii) responsible to any other Secured Party for the state or condition of any properties of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor hereunder constituting Collateral for the Obligations or any information contained in the books or records of the Company or any Guarantor; (iv) responsible to any Noteholder for the validity, enforceability, collectability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, document or instrument furnished in connection therewith; or (v) responsible to any Noteholder for the validity, priority or perfection of any Lien securing or purporting to secure the Obligations or for the value or sufficiency of any of the Collateral.
(c) The Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by or through its agents or attorneys-in-fact, and shall be entitled to the advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
(d) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents shall have any responsibility to the Company or any Guarantor on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any other Secured Party of any of its respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or in connection herewith or therewith.
(e) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, or other document or writing believed by them in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon the advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without, limitation, counsel to the Company or any Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Company or any Guarantor or any Secured Party. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless they shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Noteholders as it deems appropriate or they shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the other Secured Parties against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by them by reason of the taking or failing to take any such action.
(f) The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default unless the Collateral Agent has actual knowledge of the same or has received notice from the Company or any Guarantor referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a notice of event of default. In the event that the Collateral Agent obtains such actual knowledge or receives such a notice, the Collateral Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to each of the other Secured Parties. Upon and during the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Noteholders.
-29-
Unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received such direction, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured Parties. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to comply with any such directions to the extent that the Collateral Agent believes that its compliance with such directions would be unlawful.
(g) Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, and based on the financial statements prepared by the Company and the Guarantors and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, and financial and other condition of the Company and the Guarantors and has made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
(h) Each of the Noteholders agrees to (a) reimburse the Collateral Agent and its Affiliates for such Secured Partys Applicable Percentage of (i) any expenses and fees incurred by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties under this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Documents, including counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Secured Parties, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof not reimbursed by the Secured Parties and (ii) any expenses of any Collateral Agent incurred for the benefit of the Secured Parties that the Company or the Guarantors have agreed to reimburse pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and have failed to so reimburse and (b) indemnify and hold harmless each Collateral Agent and any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in the amount of such Secured Partys Applicable Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any Secured Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Company or any Guarantor, including costs of any suit initiated by any Collateral Agent against any Secured Party (except such as shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent); provided, however, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Secured Party in its capacity as such. The provisions of this Section 29(h) shall survive the repayment of the Obligations.
(i) It is understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as the other Noteholders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as their rights and powers under other agreements and instruments to which they are or may be party, and engage in other transactions with the Company or any Guarantor, as though they were not the Collateral Agent.
-30-
The Collateral Agent and its Affiliates may engage in any kind of commercial or investment banking, trust, advisory or other business with the Company and its Affiliates as if it were not an Agent hereunder.
(j) The Collateral Agent may deem and treat a Noteholder party to this Agreement as Noteholder unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received a notice of transfer of the Note held by such Noteholder.
(k) The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) Business Days prior written notice thereof to the other Secured Parties and the Company. Upon any such resignation of the Collateral Agent, the Required Noteholders shall have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent, which, so long as there is no Event of Default continuing, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company (whose consent in any event shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Noteholders and/or none shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) Business Days after the retiring Collateral Agents giving of notice of resignation, the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the other Secured Parties, appoint a successor Collateral Agent which shall be a person capable of complying with all of the duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder (in the opinion of the retiring Collateral Agent and as certified to the other Secured Parties in writing by such successor Collateral Agent) which, so long as there is no Event of Default continuing, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company (whose consent shall not in any event be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
After any retiring Collateral Agents resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of Section 22 of this Agreement and this Sections 29 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was such Collateral Agent under this Agreement.
(l) The Noteholders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Noteholder shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Collateral Agent) authorized to act for, any other Noteholder.
(m) For purposes of the general administration of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and any related security documents and instruments, the Company agrees to promptly upon request therefor, deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of a register of Noteholders (the Note Register) setting forth the identity and contact information of each of the Noteholders at the relevant time, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes held by each such Noteholder at such time and the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding (which Note Register the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively without further inquiry). In the event that the Company fails to promptly provide a copy of the Note Register, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on written information provided by any Person purporting to be a Noteholder and setting forth the aggregate principal amount of Notes held by such Person.
-31-
Section 30. Agency for Perfection. Each Noteholder hereby appoints each other Noteholder as agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other Applicable Law of the United States of America can be perfected only by possession or control. Should any Noteholder (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Noteholder shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agents request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agents instructions.
Section 31. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or pdf shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.
Section 32. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
Section 33. Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City in the borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Grantor hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Company at its address specified pursuant to Section 24 of this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto 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.
(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any such New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
-32-
(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement thereof.
Section 34. Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any provision hereof that requires any Grantor to (a) deliver any Collateral to the Collateral Agent or (b) cause the Collateral Agent to have Control over such Collateral may be satisfied prior to the Maturity Date by (i) the delivery of such Collateral by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of itself and the Noteholders and (ii) providing that the Collateral Agent be provided with Control with respect to such Collateral of such Grantor for the benefit of the itself and the other Secured Parties. Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date with respect to ABL Priority Collateral, the delivery of any ABL Priority Collateral to the ABL Agent pursuant to the ABL Loan Documents shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.
