The Pledgor will not effect or permit any change of control of the Issuer.

  (g)   The Pledgor will not permit the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Issuer to be amended in any way that affects the Collateral Agent’s security interests in the Pledged Collateral, the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Agreement or the Pledgor’s rights in the Pledged Collateral.

  (h)   The Pledgor will take no action, and will not permit the Issuer to take any action, that could cause any of the Pledged Collateral to constitute “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U or X issued by the Board of Governors of the United States Federal Reserve System.

  7.4   Notices

  (a)   The Pledgor must give the Collateral Agent prompt notice of the occurrence of any of the following events:

  (i)   any pending or threatened claim, suit, legal action, arbitration or other proceeding involving or affecting the Pledgor, either Issuer or any Pledged Collateral which could reasonably be expected to impair the Collateral Agent’s security interest or, the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Agreement or result in the imposition of a Lien on any Pledged Collateral; or

  (ii)   any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement is or becomes untrue, incorrect or incomplete in any material respect.

  (b)   Each notice delivered under this Clause, must include:

  (i)   reasonable details about the event; and

  (ii)   the Pledgor’s proposed course of action.

Delivery of a notice under this Clause does not affect the Pledgor’s obligations to comply with any other term of this Agreement.

  8.   WHEN SECURITY BECOMES ENFORCEABLE

This Security may be enforced by the Collateral Agent at any time after an Event of Default has occurred.

  9.   ENFORCEMENT OF SECURITY
     
9.1   Events of Default
 
  Each of the events set out in this Subclause is an Event of Default.

  (a)   The Pledgor does not comply with Clause 7.3(b) (The Pledged Collateral);

  (b)   The Pledgor does not comply with any other term of this Agreement or any Control Agreement unless the non-compliance:

  (i)   is capable of remedy; and

  (ii)   is remedied within 20 days of the Collateral Agent giving notice to the Pledgor;

  (c)   a representation or warranty made or repeated in this Agreement is untrue or incorrect in any material aspect when made or deemed to be repeated;

  (d)   any attachment, execution or levy is made in respect of any part of the Pledged Collateral; or

  (e)   an “Event of Default” (as that term is defined in the Credit Agreement) occurs.

  9.2   General

(a) After this Security has become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may immediately, in its absolute discretion, exercise any right under:

  (i)   applicable law; or

  (ii)   this Agreement,

to enforce all or any part of the Security in respect of any Pledged Collateral in any manner or order it sees fit.

(b) This includes:

  (i)   any rights and remedies available to the Collateral Agent under applicable law and under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Pledged Collateral and regardless of whether or not the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights or remedies are asserted) as if those rights and remedies were set forth in this Agreement in full;

  (ii)   transferring or assigning to, or registering in the name of, the Collateral Agent or its nominees any of the Pledged Collateral;

  (iii)   exercising any voting, consent, management and other rights relating to any Pledged Collateral;

  (iv)   performing or complying with any contractual obligation that constitutes part of the Pledged Collateral;

  (v)   receiving, endorsing, negotiating, executing and delivering or collecting upon any check, draft, note, acceptance, instrument, document, contract, agreement, receipt, release, bill of lading, invoice, endorsement, assignment, bill of sale, deed, security, share certificate, stock power, proxy, or instrument of conveyance or transfer constituting or relating to any Pledged Collateral;

  (vi)   asserting, instituting, filing, defending, settling, compromising, adjusting, discounting or releasing any suit, action, claim, counterclaim, right of set-off or other right or interest relating to any Pledged Collateral;

  (vii)   executing and delivering acquittances, receipts and releases in respect of Pledged Collateral; and

  (viii)   exercising any other right or remedy available to the Collateral Agent under the other Finance Documents or any other agreement between the parties.

  9.3   Distribution and voting rights

  (a)   So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Pledgor will be entitled to exercise all voting and other consensual rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of the Finance Documents and to receive and retain all distributions and other payments in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent permitted by the Finance Documents.

  (b)   Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all rights of the Pledgor to exercise voting and other consensual rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral and to receive distributions and other payments in respect of the Pledged Collateral will cease, and all these rights will immediately become vested solely in the Collateral Agent or its nominees, and the Pledgor grants the Collateral Agent or its nominees the Pledgor’s irrevocable and unconditional proxy for this purpose. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any distributions and other payments in respect of the Pledged Collateral received by the Pledgor will be held in trust for the Collateral Agent, and the Pledgor will keep all such amounts separate and apart from all other funds and property so as to be capable of identification as the property of the Collateral Agent and will deliver these amounts at such time as the Collateral Agent may request to the Collateral Agent in the identical form received, properly endorsed or assigned if required to enable the Collateral Agent to complete collection.

  9.4   Collateral Agent’s rights upon default

  (a)   The Pledgor irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, as the Pledgor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, in the Pledgor’s name or in the Collateral Agent’s name or otherwise, and at the Pledgor’s expense, to take any of the actions authorized by this Agreement or permitted under applicable law upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, without notice to or the consent of the Pledgor. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. The Pledgor ratifies and confirms all actions taken by the Collateral Agent or its agents under this power of attorney.

  (b)   The Pledgor agrees that 10 days notice shall constitute reasonable notice in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of Pledged Collateral.

  (c)   The Collateral Agent may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of Pledged Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of Pledged Collateral.

  (d)   The grant to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement of any right, power or remedy does not impose upon the Collateral Agent any duty to exercise that right, power or remedy. The Collateral Agent will have no obligation to take any steps to preserve any claim or other right against any person or with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

  (e)   The Pledgor bears the risk of loss, damage, diminution in value, or destruction of the Pledged Collateral.

  (f)   The Collateral Agent will have no responsibility for any act or omission of any courier, bailee, broker, bank, investment bank or any other person chosen by it with reasonable care.

  (g)   The Collateral Agent makes no express or implied representations or warranties with respect to any Pledged Collateral or other property released to the Pledgor or its successors and assigns (other than as to the absence of liens created by the Pledgor).

  (h)   The Pledgor agrees that the Collateral Agent will have met its duty of care under applicable law if it holds, maintains and disposes of Pledged Collateral in the same manner that it holds, maintains and disposes of property for its own account.

  (i)   Except as set forth in this Clause or as required under applicable law, the Collateral Agent will have no duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

  (j)   The sale, transfer or other disposition under this Agreement of any right, title, or interest of the Pledgor in any item of Pledged Collateral will:

  (i)   operate to divest the Pledgor permanently and all persons claiming under or through the Pledgor of that right, title, or interest, and

  (ii)   be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, to any claims by the Pledgor or any person claiming under or through the Pledgor
     
9.5
  with respect to that item of Pledged Collateral.
No Marshaling

  (a)   The Collateral Agent need not, and the Pledgor irrevocably waives and agrees that it will not invoke or assert any law requiring the Collateral Agent to:

  (i)   attempt to satisfy the Secured Liabilities by collecting them from any other person liable for them; or

  (ii)   marshal any security or guarantee securing payment or performance of the Secured Liabilities or any particular asset of the Pledgor.

  (b)   The Collateral Agent may release, modify or waive any collateral or guarantee provided by any other person to secure any of the Secured Liabilities, without affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights against the Pledgor.

  10.   APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

Any moneys received in connection with the Pledged Collateral by the Collateral Agent after this Security has become enforceable must be applied in the following order of priority:

  (a)   first, in or towards payment of or provision for all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent or any other Finance Party in connection with the enforcement of this Security;

  (b)   second, in or towards payment of, or provision for, the Secured Liabilities; and

  (c)   third, in payment of the surplus (if any) to the Pledgor or any other person entitled to it under applicable law or the Intercreditor Agreement.

This Clause is subject to the payment of any claims having priority over this Security. This Clause does not prejudice the right of any Finance Party to recover any shortfall from the Pledgor.

  11.   EXPENSES AND INDEMNITY

  (a)   The Pledgor must pay immediately on demand to the Collateral Agent all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent any other Finance Party, attorney, manager, delegate, sub-delegate, agent or other person appointed by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement for the purpose of enforcing its rights under this Agreement. This includes:

  (i)   this Agreement;
     
(ii)
(iii)
(iv)
  the Pledged Collateral;

any Event of Default;

  (v)   any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any exercise or enforcement of rights or remedies under this Agreement; or

  (vi)   any transfer sale or other disposition of or any realization on Pledged Collateral.

  (c)   The Pledgor will not be liable to an indemnified party to the extent any liability results from that indemnified party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Payment by an indemnified party will not be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Pledgor under this indemnity.

  (d)   This Clause survives the date hereof, the making and repayment of the Loans, any novation, transfer or assignment of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

  12.   DELEGATION
