No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Collateral Agent prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and (3) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be.

The provisions of this Section 3.4(c) shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Collateral Agent is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant control over any Investment Property to any person other than the Collateral Agent. (ii) If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Investment Property, such Pledgor shall promptly (1) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or (2) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with respect to which a Securities Account Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the Collateral Agent.

If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and shall take such action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Collateral Agent control of such Electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record.

The Collateral Agent agrees with such Pledgor that the Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Collateral Agent's loss of control, for the Pledgor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record.

The actions in the preceding sentence shall be taken to the extent that the amount of such Letter of Credit, together with all amounts of all other Letters of Credit, other than any Letter of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, for which the actions described above in clause (i) and (ii) have not been taken, exceeds $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement. SECTION 3.6. Supplements; Further Assurances.

All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors.

The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor.

Each Pledgor's -26- obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 9.1(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; (v) Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; (vi) Following written notice from the Collateral Agent to the Borrowers in accordance with Section 5.2(iii), retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; (vii) Following written notice from the Collateral Agent to the Borrowers in accordance with Section 5.2(iii), exercise any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and without the requirement of such notice, exercise any and all other rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment thereof; (viii) Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral 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. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a -27- public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. SECTION 9.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, ten (10) days' prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, during the existence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. SECTION 9.3. Waiver of Notice and Claims. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent's taking possession or the Collateral Agent's disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent's rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor. SECTION 9.4. Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral. (i) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. (ii) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such -28- Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. (iii) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number of securities included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect. SECTION 9.5. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (i) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. (ii) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. SECTION 9.6. Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights and Goodwill and such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. -29- ARTICLE X PROCEEDS OF CASUALTY EVENTS AND COLLATERAL DISPOSITIONS; APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS SECTION 10.1. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement. ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 11.1. Concerning Collateral Agent. (i) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith, but shall be liable for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such agents and attorneys-in-fact. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent's resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent. (ii) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking -30- any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral. (iii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. (iv) If any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control. SECTION 11.2. Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) during the existence of an Event of Default do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time during the existence of an Event of Default in the Collateral Agent's discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Security Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof (but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. SECTION 11.3. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other -31- Secured Parties and each of their respective permitted successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of a Secured Party that is a party to a Swap Contract, such Swap Contract. SECTION 11.4. Termination; Release. (a)When all the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations in which no claim has been made) and the Commitments of the Lenders to make any Loan or to issue any Letter of Credit under the Credit Agreement shall have expired or been sooner terminated and all Letters of Credit have been terminated or collateralized in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except as to the fact that the Collateral Agent has not encumbered the released assets, such of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments of the Lenders to make any Loan or to issue any Letter of Credit under the Credit Agreement shall have expired or been sooner terminated and all Letters of Credit have been terminated or collateralized in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, (ii) Secured Obligations of the type described in clause (b) of the definition of Secured Obligations ("Remaining Secured Obligations") remain outstanding and (iii) all or a portion of the repayment of the Obligations is financed by the proceeds of Indebtedness of one or more Loan Parties or any affiliate of a Loan Party ("Refinancing Indebtedness") which Refinancing Indebtedness is secured by property of such persons, this Agreement shall terminate as if the Remaining Secured Obligations have been paid in full and the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section 11.4 shall apply concurrently with the incurrence of the Refinancing Indebtedness and the securing of the Refinancing Indebtedness and the Remaining Secured Obligations on an equal and ratable basis. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Refinancing Indebtedness is not secured, this Agreement shall not terminate but shall remain in full force and effect. (c) If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Pledgor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Collateral Agent, at the sole -32- expense of such Pledgor, shall execute and deliver to such Pledgor all releases or other documents necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. SECTION 11.5. Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. SECTION 11.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.6. SECTION 11.7. Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. Sections 10.14 and 10.15 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof. SECTION 11.8. Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. SECTION 11.9. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. SECTION 11.10. Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided in this Agreement ends or falls on a day other than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such other day. -33- SECTION 11.11. No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof. SECTION 11.12. No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. SECTION 11.13. No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor's part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor's part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Pledged Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any such contract, agreement or other document included in the Pledged Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor's other obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. SECTION 11.14. Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any other Pledgor; -34- (ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any Swap Contract or any other Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any Swap Contract or any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (iv) any pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations; (v) any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Credit Agreement, any Swap Contract or any other Loan Document except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.5 hereof; or (vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor.

This Control Agreement is for the purpose of perfecting the security interests of the Secured Parties granted by the Pledgor in the Designated Accounts described below. All references herein to the "UCC" shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement. Section 1. Confirmation of Establishment and Maintenance of Designated Accounts. The Securities Intermediary hereby confirms and agrees that (i) the Securities Intermediary has established for the Pledgor and maintains the account(s) listed in Schedule I annexed hereto (such account(s), together with each such other securities account maintained by the Pledgor with the Securities Intermediary collectively, the "Designated Accounts" and each a "Designated Account"), (ii) each Designated Account will be maintained in the manner set forth herein until termination of this Control Agreement, (iii) this Control Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Securities Intermediary, (iv) the Securities Intermediary is a "securities intermediary" as defined in Article 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC, (v) each of the Designated Accounts is a "securities account" as such term is defined in Section 8-501(a) of the UCC and (vi) all securities or other property underlying any financial assets which are credited to any Designated Account shall be registered in the name of the Securities Intermediary, endorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary and in no case will any financial asset credited to any Designated Account be registered in the name of the Pledgor, payable to the order of the Pledgor or specially endorsed to the Pledgor, except to the extent the foregoing have been specially endorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank. Section 2. "Financial Assets" Election. All parties hereto agree that each item of Investment Property and all other property held in or credited to any Designated Account -2- (the "Account Property") shall be treated as a "financial asset" within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC. Section 3. Entitlement Order. If at any time the Securities Intermediary shall receive an "entitlement order" (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) issued by the Collateral Agent and relating to any financial asset maintained in one or more of the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the Pledgor or any other person. The Securities Intermediary shall also comply with instructions directing the Securities Intermediary with respect to the sale, exchange or transfer of financial assets held in each Designated Account originated by a Pledgor, or any representative of, or investment manager appointed by, a Pledgor until such time as the Collateral Agent delivers a Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 9(i) to the Securities Intermediary. The Securities Intermediary shall comply with, and is fully entitled to rely upon, any entitlement order from the Collateral Agent, even if such entitlement order is contrary to any entitlement order that the Pledgor may give or may have given to the Securities Intermediary. Section 4. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. The Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that any security interest in, lien on, encumbrance, claim or (except as provided in the next sentence) right of setoff against, any Designated Account or any Account Property it now has or subsequently obtains shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Designated Accounts and the Account Property therein or credited thereto. The Securities Intermediary agrees not to exercise any present or future right of recoupment or set-off against any of the Designated Accounts or to assert against any of the Designated Accounts any present or future security interest, banker's lien or any other lien or claim (including claim for penalties) that the Securities Intermediary may at any time have against or in any of the Designated Accounts or any Account Property therein or credited thereto; provided, however, that the Securities Intermediary may set off all amounts due to the Securities Intermediary in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Designated Accounts, including overdraft fees and amounts advanced to settle authorized transactions. Section 5. Choice of Law. Both this Control Agreement and the Designated Accounts shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the Securities Intermediary's jurisdiction and the Designated Accounts (as well as the security entitlements related thereto) shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Section 6. Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendments. As of the date hereof, there are no other agreements entered into between the Securities Intermediary and the Pledgor with respect to any Designated Account or any security entitlements or other financial assets credited thereto (other than standard and customary documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of such Designated Accounts). The Securities Intermediary and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to any Designated Account unless the Collateral Agent shall have received prior written notice thereof. The Securities -3- Intermediary and the Pledgor have not and will not enter into any other agreement with respect to (i) creation or perfection of any security interest in or (ii) control of security entitlements maintained in any of the Designated Accounts or purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Securities Intermediary to comply with entitlement orders with respect to any Account Property held in or credited to any Designated Account as set forth in Section 3 hereof without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent acting in its reasonable discretion. In the event of any conflict with respect to control over any Designated Account between this Control Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Control Agreement shall prevail. No amendment or modification of this Control Agreement or waiver of any rights hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all the parties hereto. Section 7. Certain Agreements. (i) As of the date hereof, the Securities Intermediary has furnished to the Collateral Agent the most recent account statement issued by the Securities Intermediary with respect to each of the Designated Accounts and the financial assets and cash balances held therein, identifying the financial assets held therein in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. Each such statement accurately reflects the assets held in such Designated Account as of the date thereof. (ii) The Securities Intermediary will, upon its receipt of each supplement to the Security Agreement signed by the Pledgor and identifying one or more financial assets as "Pledged Collateral," enter into its records, including computer records, with respect to each Designated Account a notation with respect to any such financial asset so that such records and reports generated with respect thereto identify such financial asset as "Pledged." Section 8. Notice of Adverse Claims. Except for the claims and interest of the Collateral Agent and of the Pledgor in the Account Property held in or credited to the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, security interest in, lien on, or encumbrance against, any Designated Account or Account Property held in or credited thereto and does not know of any claim that any person or entity other than the Collateral Agent has been given "control" (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC) of any Designated Account or any such Account Property. If the Securities Intermediary becomes aware that any person or entity is asserting any lien, encumbrance, security interest or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process or any claim of control) against any of the Account Property held in or credited to any Designated Account, the Securities Intermediary shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Pledgor thereof. Section 9. Maintenance of Designated Accounts. In addition to the obligations of the Securities Intermediary in Section 3 hereof, the Securities Intermediary agrees to maintain the Designated Accounts as follows: -4- (i) Notice of Sole Control. If at any time the Collateral Agent delivers to the Securities Intermediary a notice instructing the Securities Intermediary to terminate Pledgor's access to any Designated Account (the "Notice of Sole Control"), the Securities Intermediary agrees that, after receipt of such notice, it will take all instructions with respect to such Designated Account solely from the Collateral Agent, terminate all instructions and orders originated by the Pledgor with respect to the Designated Accounts or any Account Property therein, and cease taking instructions from Pledgor, including, without limitation, instructions for investment, distribution or transfer of any financial asset maintained in any Designated Account. Permitting settlement of trades pending at the time of receipt of such notice shall not constitute a violation of the immediately preceding sentence. (ii) Voting Rights. Until such time as the Securities Intermediary receives a Notice of Sole Control, the Pledgor, or an investment manager on behalf of the Pledgor, shall direct the Securities Intermediary with respect to the voting of any financial assets credited to any Designated Account. (iii) Statements and Confirmations. The Securities Intermediary will send copies of all statements and other correspondence (excluding routine confirmations) concerning any Designated Account or any financial assets credited thereto simultaneously to each of the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent at the address set forth in Section 11 hereof. The Securities Intermediary will provide to the Collateral Agent, upon the Collateral Agent's request therefor from time to time and, in any event, as of the last business day of each calendar month, a statement of the market value of each financial asset maintained in each Designated Account. The Securities Intermediary shall not change the name or account number of any Designated Account without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. (iv) Perfection in Certificated Securities. The Securities Intermediary acknowledges that, in the event that it should come into possession of any certificate representing any security or other Account Property held in or credited to any of the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary shall retain possession of the same on behalf and for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and such act shall cause the Securities Intermediary to be deemed holding such certificate for the Collateral Agent, if necessary to perfect the Collateral Agent's security interest in such securities or assets. The Securities Intermediary hereby acknowledges its receipt of a copy of the Security Agreement, which shall also serve as notice to the Securities Intermediary of a security interest in collateral held on behalf and for the benefit of the Collateral Agent. Section 10. Successors; Assignment. The terms of this Control Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective corporate successors and permitted assignees. -5- Section 11.
