4.04 Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral.

(a) Intellectual Property.

(i) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 4.05 at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, such Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such grant is permissible under the applicable granting documents and Applicable Law, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to it) to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by it, wherever the same may be located, including in such license to the extent permitted under the applicable license agreement reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof (as provided in Section 12.3 of the Loan Agreement).

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to any provision of the Loan Documents that limits the rights of such Grantor to dispose of its property, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Grantor will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of the business of such Grantor. In furtherance of the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the reasonable request of such Grantor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, that such Grantor shall have certified are appropriate in its judgment to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to clause (i) immediately above as to any specific Intellectual Property).

(ii) Except as otherwise provided in this clause (ii), such Grantor shall continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor under the Assigned Agreements. In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and during an Event of Default, at the Collateral Agent’s direction shall take) such action as such Grantor or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the amounts due under the Assigned Agreements. Such Grantor agrees and confirms that it shall notify each party to the Assigned Agreements of the grant of the security interest therein and assignment thereof to the Collateral Agent and instruct each of them that all payments due or to become due and all amounts payable to such Grantor thereunder shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent for deposit into the Revenue Account or another account designated by the Collateral Agent.

(iii) the Collateral Agent may require such Grantor to notify (and such Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to so notify) each account debtor in respect of any Account (as defined in the NYUCC), Chattel Paper or General Intangible, and each obligor on any Instrument, constituting part of the Collateral and on any Assigned Agreement that such Collateral has been assigned to the Collateral Agent hereunder, and to instruct that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent or as it may direct (and if any such payments, or any other Proceeds of the Collateral, are received by such Grantor they shall be held in trust by such Grantor for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and as promptly as possible remitted or delivered to the Collateral Agent for application as provided herein);

(iv) the Collateral Agent may require such Grantor to assemble the Collateral at such place or places, reasonably convenient to the Collateral Agent and such Grantor, as the Collateral Agent may direct;

(v) the Collateral Agent may apply the Account Collateral and any money or other property therein to payment of the Obligations;

(vi) the Collateral Agent may sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, at such place or places as the Collateral Agent deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the Collateral Agent or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of such Grantor, any such

demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released to the extent permitted by law. In the event of any sale, assignment, or other disposition of any of the Trademark Collateral, the goodwill connected with and symbolized by the Trademark Collateral subject to such disposition shall be included. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned;

(vii) the Collateral Agent may exercise dominion and control over and refuse to permit further withdrawals from any Deposit Account (including without limitation the Revenue Account) and provide instructions directing the disposition of funds in any such Deposit Accounts and provide entitlement orders with respect to Security Entitlements and other Investment Property constituting a part of the Collateral and, without notice to such Grantor, transfer to or register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all security Collateral;

(viii) the Collateral Agent may in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Assigned Agreements and execute, in connection with any sale provided for in this Section 4.05, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments or documents of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(ix) the Collateral Agent may make formal application for the transfer of all of such Grantor’s permits, licenses, approvals, and the like relating to the Assigned Agreements or to such Grantor’s business to the Collateral Agent or to any assignee of the Collateral Agent or to any purchaser of any of the Collateral to the extent the same are assignable in accordance with their terms and Applicable Law.

The Proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 4.05, including by virtue of the exercise of any license granted to the Collateral Agent in Section 4.04(a), shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.09.

(b) Certain Securities Act Limitations. Such Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Such Grantor 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, 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

 

Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)

Amended & Restated Security Agreement

 

14


have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for public sale.

(c) Notice. Such Grantor agrees that to the extent the Collateral Agent is required by Applicable Law to give reasonable prior notice of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, ten (10) Business Days’ notice shall be deemed to constitute reasonable prior notice.

4.06 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.05 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment and performance in full of the Obligations, such Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency.

4.07 Locations; Names, Etc. Without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, such Grantor shall not (i) change its “location” (within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the NYUCC), (ii) change its name from the name shown as its current legal name on Annex 1, or (iii) agree to or authorize any modification of the terms of any item of Collateral that would result in a change thereof from one Uniform Commercial Code category to another such category (such as from a General Intangible to Investment Property), if the effect thereof would be to result in a loss of perfection of, or diminution of priority for, the security interests created hereunder in such item of Collateral, or the loss of control (within the meaning of Sections 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of the NYUCC) over such item of Collateral.

4.08 Private Sale. The Collateral Agent shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 4.05 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Such Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

4.09 Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise herein expressly provided and except as provided below in this Section 4.09, the Proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by the Collateral Agent under this Section 4, shall be applied by the Collateral Agent:

First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, and all expenses incurred and advances made by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith;

Second, to the payment in full of the Obligations, in accordance with the Loan Agreement, in such order as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and

Third, to the Depositary Bank for deposit into the Revenue Account to be applied in accordance with Section 3.4 of the Depositary Agreement.

(f) to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to perform or comply or cause performance or compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, access to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than the Liens created in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by the Collateral Agent to become obligations of such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, due and payable immediately without demand; and

(g) to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes (but subject to the terms of this Agreement).

4.11 Perfection and Recordation. Such Grantor authorizes, without releasing such Grantor from its obligation to do so, the Collateral Agent to file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, including amendments and continuations, including those describing the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property and fixtures” of such Grantor and in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing, a sufficient description of the real property to which such Collateral relates (provided, that no such description shall be deemed to modify the description of Collateral set forth in Section 3).

The Collateral Agent shall also, at the expense of such Grantor, execute and deliver to such Grantor upon such termination such Uniform Commercial Code termination statements and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by such Grantor to effect the termination and release of the liens on the Collateral as required by this Section 4.12 and the Payoff Letter.

4.14 No Marshalling.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, such Grantor hereby agrees that it shall not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of Collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights or remedies under this Agreement, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws (including any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale or inverse order of alienation).

(b) Such Grantor hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law (i) all rights under any law to require the Collateral Agent to pursue any other Person, any security which the Collateral Agent may hold, or any other remedy before proceeding against such Grantor; (ii) all rights to require the Collateral Agent to give any notices of any kind, including, without limitation, notices of nonpayment, nonperformance, protest, dishonor, default, delinquency or acceleration, or to make any presentments, demands or protests, except as expressly provided in this Agreement; other than notices required by the Loan Documents; (iii) all rights to assert the bankruptcy or insolvency of such Grantor as a defense hereunder or as the basis for rescission hereof; (iv) all defenses based on any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of the Obligations; (v) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any lien on any Collateral;

No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Collateral Agent of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
