Without limiting the foregoing, all such instruments, documents and certificates received by such Grantor shall be held in trust on behalf of Secured Party pursuant hereto and shall be delivered to Secured Party in suitable form for transfer by delivery with any necessary endorsement or shall be accompanied by fully executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party. To the extent that any of the Company Rights (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) are not evidenced by a certificate, instrument or other writing, the Grantor will take all actions required under applicable Law to perfect the security interest created hereunder, and such other actions as the Secured Party considers necessary or desirable to effect the foregoing, and upon reasonable request by the Secured Party will provide an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Secured Party, acting reasonably, with respect to the pledge of uncertificated interests.

     (d) Diminution of Company Rights. Such Grantor will not adjust, settle, compromise, amend or modify any of the Company Rights or the Company Agreements related to ETP GP or ETP LLC, except as permitted (or not restricted) by the Credit Agreement. Such Grantor will not permit the creation of any additional interests in any Company (other than ETP or Regency) or the issuance of any additional shares of any class of capital stock or any other interests of any Company (other than ETP or Regency) (unless immediately upon creation or issuance the same are pledged and delivered to Secured Party pursuant to the terms hereof to the extent necessary to give Secured Party a first priority security interest therein), whether such additional interests are presently vested or will vest upon the payment of money or the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any other condition.

     (e) Status of Company Rights. Except for certificated securities that have been delivered to Secured Party and reflected on Exhibit A (as supplemented from time to time), the Company Rights are not and shall not at any time be evidenced by any certificates. The certificates evidencing the Company Rights shall at all times be valid and shall not be altered. The Company Rights at all times shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and (other than with respect to partnership and limited liability company interests) non assessable, and shall not be issued in violation of the pre emptive rights of any Person or of any agreement by which Grantor or any Company is bound and shall not be subject to any restrictions with respect to transfer, voting or capital of such Company Rights.

     (f) Restrictions on Collateral. Such Grantor will not enter into any agreement creating, or otherwise permit to exist, any restriction or condition upon the transfer, voting, control, or exercise of any Company Rights in respect of any Company other than any such restrictions or conditions contained in the applicable Company’s Company Agreement or similar agreement as of the Closing Date.

     (g) Commercial Tort Claims. If such Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a material Commercial Tort Claim, such Grantor shall immediately notify Secured Party in writing of the details thereof and grant to Secured Party in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Secured Party.

ARTICLE IV Remedies, Powers and Authorizations

     Section 4.1. Provisions Concerning the Collateral.

     (a) Authorization to File Financing Statements; Additional Filings. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Secured Party at any time and from time to time to file, without the signature of such Grantor, in any jurisdiction any financing statements and amendments thereto that (i) indicate the Collateral as “all assets of Grantor and all proceeds thereof, and all rights and privileges with respect thereto” or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset included in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC; (ii) contain any other information required by subchapter E of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including the address of such Grantor, whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to such Grantor; and (iii) are necessary to properly effectuate the transactions described in this Agreement, as determined by Secured Party in its reasonable discretion. Each Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to Secured Party promptly upon request. Each Grantor hereby further authorizes Secured Party to file one or more continuation statements to such financing statements. Each Grantor further agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or of any financing statement describing any Collateral is sufficient as a financing statement and may be filed in any jurisdiction accepting same by Secured Party.

     (b) Power of Attorney. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as such Grantor’s attorney in fact and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in Secured Party’s reasonable discretion, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to take any action, and to execute or endorse any instrument, certificate or notice, which Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including any action or instrument: (i) to request or instruct each Company (and each registrar, transfer agent, or similar Person acting on behalf of each Company) to register the pledge or transfer of its Collateral to Secured Party; (ii) to otherwise give notification to any Company, registrar, transfer agent, financial intermediary, or other Person of Secured Party’s security interests in its Collateral hereunder; (iii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of its Collateral; (iv) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments or documents included in its Collateral; (v) to enforce any obligations included in its Collateral; and (vi) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which Secured Party may, in its reasonable discretion, deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of its Collateral or otherwise to enforce, perfect, or establish the priority of the rights of Secured Party with respect to any of its Collateral. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that such power of attorney and proxy are coupled with an interest, and are irrevocable.

     (c) Collection Rights. Secured Party shall have the right at any time, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or of an Event of Default, to notify, or require any Grantor to notify, any or all Persons (including any Company) obligated to make payments which are included among its Collateral (whether accounts, general intangibles, dividends, distribution rights, Company Rights to Payment, or otherwise) of the assignment

thereof to Secured Party under this Agreement and to direct such obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to Secured Party and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor and to the extent permitted by Law, to enforce collection thereof and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor could have done. After such Grantor receives notice that Secured Party has given (and after Secured Party has required such Grantor to give) any notice referred to above in this subsection, and so long as any Event of Default shall be continuing:

     (i) all amounts and proceeds (including instruments and writings) received by such Grantor in respect of such rights to payment, accounts, general intangibles, dividends, distribution rights or Company Rights to Payments shall be received in trust for the benefit of Secured Party hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to Secured Party in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied as specified in Section 4.3; and

     (ii) except with the consent of Secured Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), such Grantor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such account or general intangible, Company Rights to Payments or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof (including any Company) or allow any credit or discount thereon.

     Section 4.2. Event of Default Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Secured Party may from time to time in its discretion, without limitation and without notice except as expressly provided below:

     (a) exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein, under the other Loan Documents or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral);

     (b) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of Secured Party, promptly assemble all books, records and information of such Grantor relating to the Collateral at a place to be designated by Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties;

     (c) reduce its claim to judgment or foreclose or otherwise enforce, in whole or in part, the security interest created hereby by any available judicial procedure;

     (d) dispose of, at its office, on the premises of the respective Grantor or elsewhere, all or any part of the Collateral, as a unit or in parcels, by public or private proceedings, and by way of one or more contracts (it being agreed that the sale of any part of the Collateral shall not exhaust Secured Party’s power of sale, but sales may be made from time to time, and at any time, until all of the Collateral has been sold or until the Secured Obligations have been paid and performed in full), and at any such sale it shall not be necessary to exhibit any of the Collateral;

     (e) buy (or allow one or more of the Lender Parties to buy) the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public sale;

     (f) buy (or allow one or more of the Lender Parties to buy) the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations;

     (g) appoint by instrument in writing one or more receivers, managers or receiver/manager for the Collateral or the business and undertaking of any Grantor pertaining to the Collateral (the “Receiver”). Any such Receiver will have, in addition to any other rights, remedies and powers which a Receiver may have at Law, in equity or by statute, the rights and powers set out elsewhere in this Section 4.2. In exercising such rights and powers, any Receiver will act as and for all purposes will be deemed to be the agent of Grantors and no Lender Party will be responsible for any act or default of any Receiver. The Lender Parties may remove any Receiver and appoint another from time to time. No Receiver appointed by the Lender Parties need be appointed by, nor need its appointment be ratified by, or its actions in any way supervised by a court;

     (h) apply by appropriate judicial proceedings for appointment of a receiver for the Collateral, or any part thereof, and each Grantor hereby consents to any such appointment; and

     (i) at its discretion, retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations whenever the circumstances are such that Secured Party is entitled to do so under the UCC or otherwise (provided that Secured Party shall in no circumstances be deemed to have retained the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations in the absence of an express notice by Secured Party to such Grantor that Secured Party has either done so or intends to do so).

Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by Law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Secured Party 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.

     Section 4.3. Application of Proceeds. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Secured Party may in its discretion apply any cash proceeds from the Collateral held by Secured Party as Collateral, and any cash proceeds received by Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, as provided in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement.

     Section 4.4. Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization of or upon Collateral by Secured Party are insufficient to pay all Secured Obligations and any other amounts to which Secured Party is legally entitled, each Grantor that is the Borrower or is a Guarantor shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon as provided in the governing Loan Documents, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees of any legal counsel employed by Secured Party, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders to collect such deficiency.

     Section 4.5. Indemnity and Expenses. In addition to, but not in qualification or limitation of, any similar obligations under other Loan Documents:

     (a) each Grantor will indemnify each Lender Party from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities arising out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement), whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by such Grantor or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (ii) result from a claim brought by such Grantor or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Grantor or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; and

     (b) each Grantor will upon demand pay to Secured Party the amount of any and all reasonable costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of Secured Party’s counsel and of any experts and agents, which Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the transactions which give rise to this Agreement, (ii) the preparation of this Agreement and the perfection and preservation of this security interest created under this Agreement, (iii) the administration of this Agreement, (iv) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any Collateral, (v) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Secured Party hereunder, or (vi) the failure by Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof, except expenses resulting from Secured Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     Section 4.6. Non-Judicial Remedies. In granting to Secured Party the power to enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, each Grantor expressly waives, renounces and knowingly relinquishes any legal right which might otherwise require Secured Party to enforce its rights by judicial process. In so providing for non judicial remedies, each Grantor recognizes and concedes that such remedies are consistent with the usage of trade, are responsive to commercial necessity, and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length. Nothing herein is intended, however, to prevent Secured Party or any Grantor from resorting to judicial process at its option.

     Section 4.7. Other Recourse. Each Grantor waives any right to require any Lender Party to proceed against any other Person, to exhaust any Collateral or other security for the Secured Obligations, to marshal the Collateral, or to have any Loan Party joined with such Grantor in any suit arising out of the Secured Obligations or this Agreement, or pursue any other remedy in Secured Party’s power. Each Grantor further waives any and all notice of the creation, modification, rearrangement, renewal or extension for any period of any of the Secured Obligations of any Loan Party from time to time. Each Grantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any Loan Party or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Loan Party. This Agreement shall continue irrespective of the fact that the liability of any Loan Party may have ceased and

irrespective of the validity or enforceability of any other Loan Document to which such Grantor or any Loan Party may be a party, and notwithstanding any reorganization or bankruptcy of any Loan Party or any other event or proceeding affecting any Loan Party. Until all of the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Grantor shall have any right to subrogation and each Grantor waives the right to enforce any remedy which any Lender Party has or may hereafter have against any Loan Party, and waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any other security whatsoever now or hereafter held by Secured Party. Each Grantor authorizes each Lender Party, without notice or demand, without any reservation of rights against such Grantor, and without in any way affecting such Grantor’s liability hereunder or on the Secured Obligations, from time to time to (a) take or hold any other property of any type from any other Person as security for the Secured Obligations, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any or all of such other property, (b) apply the Collateral or such other property and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Secured Party may in its discretion determine, (c) renew, extend for any period, accelerate, modify, compromise, settle or release any of the obligations of any Loan Party in respect of any or all of the Secured Obligations or other security for the Secured Obligations, (d) waive, enforce, modify, amend, restate or supplement any of the provisions of any Loan Document with any Person other than such Grantor, and (e) release or substitute any Loan Party.

     Section 4.8. Exercise of Company Rights.

     (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing Grantors may receive, retain and use, free and clear of any Lien created hereby, any and all Company Rights to Payment paid in respect of the Collateral, provided, however, that any and all Company Rights to Payment paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Company Rights shall be, and shall forthwith be delivered to Secured Party to hold as, Company Rights and shall, if received by any Grantor, be received, segregated, held in trust and delivered as set forth above.

     (b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Grantors may at all times exercise any and all voting rights pertaining to the Company Rights and Other Company Rights for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

     (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

     (i) all rights of each Grantor to receive and retain the Company Rights to Payment which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to subsection (a) of this section shall automatically cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Secured Party which shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such Company Rights to Payment;

     (ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Party may at its option exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any of the Company Rights, other than voting rights pertaining to the Company Rights, as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including, without limitation, the right to exchange, in its discretion, any and all of the

Company Rights upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other adjustment of any Company, or upon the exercise by any Company of any right, privilege or option pertaining to any Company Rights, and, in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Company Rights with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agent upon such terms and conditions as it may determine and any and all rights to dissolve any Company or to compel distribution of any Company’s assets; and

     (iii) all Company Rights to Payments which are received by Grantor contrary to the provisions of subsection (c)(i) of this section shall be received in trust for the benefit of Secured Party, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall be forthwith paid over to Secured Party as Company Rights in the exact form received, to be held by Secured Party as Collateral.

     Section 4.9. Private Sale of Company Rights. Each Grantor recognizes that Secured Party may deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the Company Rights and that Secured Party may, therefore, determine to make one or more private sales of any such Company Rights to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the same for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Secured Party shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such Company Rights for the period of time necessary to permit their registration for public sale under the Securities Act, to the extent, if any, that the Securities Act would be applicable thereto. Each Grantor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell any Company Rights which has been (a) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such an offer may be so advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act), or (b) made privately in the manner described above to not less than fifteen (15) bona fide offerees shall be deemed to involve a “public disposition” for the purposes of Section 9-610(c) of the UCC (or any successor or similar, applicable statutory provision) as then in effect in the State of New York, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act, and that Secured Party or one or more of the Lender Parties may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such Company Rights.

ARTICLE V Miscellaneous

     Section 5.1. Notices. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be given, in the case of Borrower or Secured Party, as provided in the Credit Agreement, in the case of each other Grantor on the date of this Agreement, at the address below its signature hereto, and, in the case of any other Grantor, as provided in such Grantor’s Pledge and Security Agreement Supplement.

     Section 5.2. Amendments; Pledge and Security Agreement Supplements. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and

signed by each Grantor and Secured Party, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by Secured Party, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given and to the extent specified in such writing. In addition, all such amendments and waivers shall be effective only if given with the necessary approvals of Lenders as required in the Credit Agreement. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a pledge and security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit B (each, a “Pledge and Security Agreement Supplement”), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Grantor” and shall become and be a Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement to a “Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a “Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, and (b) each reference herein to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import referring to this Agreement, and each reference in any other Loan Document to the “Security Agreement,” “thereunder,” “thereof” or words of like import referring to this Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement as supplemented by such Pledge and Security Agreement Supplement.

     Section 5.3. Preservation of Rights. No failure on the part of Secured Party or any other Lender Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Agreement shall in any manner impair or affect any other security for the Secured Obligations. The rights and remedies of Secured Party provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by Law. The rights of Secured Party under any Loan Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by Secured Party to exercise any of its rights or exhaust any recourse under any other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person.

     Section 5.4. Unenforceability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     Section 5.5. Survival of Agreements. All representations and warranties of each Grantor herein, and all covenants and agreements herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the execution and delivery of any other Loan Documents and the creation of the Secured Obligations.

     Section 5.6. Other Liable Party. Neither this Agreement nor the exercise by Secured Party or the failure of Secured Party to exercise any right, power or remedy conferred herein or by Law shall be construed as relieving any Loan Party from liability on the Secured Obligations or any deficiency thereon. This Agreement shall continue irrespective of the fact that the liability of any Loan Party may have ceased or irrespective of the validity or enforceability of any other Loan Document to which any Grantor or any Loan Party may be a party, and notwithstanding the reorganization, death, incapacity or bankruptcy of any Loan Party, and

notwithstanding the reorganization or bankruptcy or other event or proceeding affecting any Loan Party.

     Section 5.7. Binding Effect and Assignment. This Agreement creates a continuing security interest in the Collateral and (a) shall be binding on each Grantor and its successors and permitted assigns and (b) shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder, to the benefit of Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Party, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer any or all of its rights hereunder as provided in the Credit Agreement, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to Secured Party, herein or otherwise. None of the rights or duties of any Grantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of Secured Party.

     Section 5.8. Termination. It is contemplated by the parties hereto that there may be times when no Secured Obligations are outstanding, but notwithstanding such occurrences, this Agreement shall remain valid and shall be in full force and effect as to subsequent outstanding Secured Obligations. Upon the satisfaction in full of the Secured Obligations and the termination or expiration of the Credit Agreement, then upon written request for the termination hereof delivered by Borrower to Secured Party, this Agreement and the security interest created hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors. Secured Party will, upon the respective Grantor’s request and at the respective Grantor’s expense, return to such Grantor such of the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the terms of this Agreement free and clear of the Liens hereof and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

     Section 5.9. Governing Law and Choice of Venue.

     (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH GRANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. 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. NOTHING IN

THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE LC ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

     (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH GRANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (b) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

     (d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 5.1. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

     Section 5.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be separately executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile transmission), all of which when so executed shall be deemed to constitute one and the same Agreement.

     Section 5.11. “Loan Document.” This Agreement is a “Loan Document,” as defined in the Credit Agreement, and, except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, this Agreement is subject to all provisions of the Credit Agreement governing such Loan Documents. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement shall control.

     Section 5.12. Limitation on Recourse Against Non-Guarantor Grantor. In respect of any Grantor that is neither the Borrower nor a Guarantor, Secured Party will look solely to the Collateral pledged by such Grantor and nothing contained in this Agreement will create any right for the Secured Party to enforce a deficiency in respect of the Secured Obligations against such Grantor. The foregoing shall not limit the rights of Secured Party to proceed against such Grantor (i) to enforce the security interest against Collateral pledged by such Grantor (including enforcement in connection with any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code), (ii) to enforce any policy of insurance or to recover any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds or other similar funds in respect of Collateral pledged by such Grantor (but only to the extent of the value of such Collateral), (iii) to recover damages for fraud or waste by such Grantor in respect of Collateral pledged by such Grantor (but only to the extent of the value of such Collateral), or (iv) to recover Collateral or proceeds of Collateral that, under the terms of the Loan Documents, should have been delivered or paid to Secured Party by such Grantor. This Section shall not waive any right which Secured Party may have to make any election permitted

under Section 1111(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or to require that after acquired property of the Grantor shall continue to secure the Secured Obligations.

     Section 5.13. FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS WRITTEN PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR OR CONTEMPORANEOUS ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

     THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     Reference is made to the Credit Agreement and to that certain Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of September 20, 2010, executed by and among the grantors party thereto and the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Parties (as heretofore amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Original Security Agreement”; such Original Security Agreement, as in effect on the date hereof and as it may hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, together with this Pledge and Security Agreement Supplement, being the “Security Agreement”). The capitalized terms defined in the Security Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are used herein as therein defined.

     Section 1. Grant of Security Interest. The undersigned Grantor hereby confirms the grant to the Secured Party set forth in the Security Agreement of, and does hereby grant to the Secured Party, a security interest in all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to all Collateral to secure the Secured Obligations, in each case whether now or hereafter existing or in which Grantor now has or hereafter acquires an interest and wherever the same may be located. The undersigned Grantor represents and warrants that the attached supplements to schedules accurately and completely set forth all additional information required pursuant to the Security Agreement and hereby agrees that such supplements to schedules shall constitute part of the schedules to the Security Agreement.

The undersigned Grantor hereby agrees, as of the date first above written, to be bound as a Grantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Security Agreement to the same extent as each of the other Grantors thereunder.

This Security Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State, except as required by mandatory provisions of Law and except to the extent that the perfection and the effect of perfection or non-perfection of the security interest created hereunder, in respect of any particular Collateral, are governed by the Laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. Each of the Grantors irrevocably waives any objection, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, that it may now or hereafter have (including any claim of inconvenient forum) to the venue of any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Security Agreement in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof.
