SECTION 4.6 Further Assurances, etc. Each Grantor will warrant and defend the security interest herein granted unto the Secured Parties by such Grantor in and to the Collateral (and all right, title and interest represented by such Collateral) against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. Each Grantor agrees that, from time to time at its own expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect, preserve and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable any Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor: (a) will from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent such stock powers, instruments and similar documents, satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent, with respect to such Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and will, from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Specified Event promptly transfer any Capital Securities constituting 19 Collateral into the name of any nominee designated by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties; if any Collateral shall be evidenced by an instrument, negotiable document, promissory note or chattel paper, deliver and pledge to the Collateral Agent hereunder such instrument, negotiable document or chattel paper duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; (b) will execute (if applicable) and file (or caused to be filed) such financing statements or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices (including any assignment of claim form under or pursuant to the federal assignment of claims statute, 31 U.S.C. ss. 3726, any successor or amended version thereof or any regulation promulgated under or pursuant to any version thereof), as may be necessary or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted to the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties hereby; (c) hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file such financing statements and other documents without its signature (to the extent allowed by applicable law); (d) shall not enter into any agreement amending, supplementing or waiving any provision of any Intercompany Note (including any underlying instrument pursuant to which such Intercompany Note is issued), that compromises, releases or extends the time for payment of any obligation of the maker thereof; (e) not take or omit to take any action the taking or the omission of which would result in any impairment or alteration of any obligation of the maker of any Intercompany Note or payment intangible or other instrument constituting Collateral; (f) furnish to the Collateral Agent, from time to time at the Collateral Agent's request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail; (g) will maintain or cause to be maintained with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business, and the properties and business of its Subsidiaries, against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by reputable companies in the same or similar businesses, such insurance to be of such types and in such amounts as are customary for such companies under similar circumstances; (h) do all things reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent in order to enable the Collateral Agent to have control (as such term is defined in Article 8 and Article 9 of any applicable UCC relevant to the creation, perfection or priority of Collateral consisting of deposit accounts, accounts and letter of credit rights) over any Collateral; and 20 (i) notify the Collateral Agent if such Grantor reasonably believes it is entitled to recover a commercial tort claim the value of which is in excess of $1,000,000 and such Grantor shall take all such action reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to grant to the Collateral Agent and perfect a security interest in such commercial tort claim. With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby "all of the debtor's personal property or assets" or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Security Agreement. SECTION 4.7 Deposit Accounts. From and after the date hereof, no Grantor shall maintain any deposit account or deposit any items or amounts in any deposit account, except: (i) deposit accounts maintained with the Collateral Agent, or (ii) deposit accounts as to which each respective Grantor, the Collateral Agent and the depositary bank have entered into a Control Agreement that the depositary bank will comply with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent directing disposition of the funds in the account without further consent by such Grantor.

ARTICLE 5 THE COLLATERAL AGENT SECTION 5.1 Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, 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 the Collateral Agent's discretion, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Event, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement, including: (a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral; 21 (b) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) above; (c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral; and (d) to perform the affirmative obligations of such Grantor hereunder (including all obligations of such Grantor pursuant to Section 4.6). Each Grantor hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. SECTION 5.2 Collateral Agent May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor pursuant to Section 6.4. SECTION 5.3 Collateral Agent Has No Duty. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest (on behalf of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any investment property, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. SECTION 5.4 Reasonable Care. The Collateral Agent is required to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral, if it takes such action for that purpose as any Grantor reasonably requests in writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, but failure of the Collateral Agent to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care, provided, further that the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any Grantor or any Secured Party except to the extent caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct. 22 ARTICLE 6 REMEDIES SECTION 6.1 Certain Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies available of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) in addition to those described in Section 6.1(b) below: (i) require each Grantor to, and such Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Collateral Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days prior 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. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral 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. (b) The Collateral Agent may (i) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder, (ii) notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Collateral Agent of any amount due or to become due thereunder, (iii) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto, (iv) endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in any Grantor's name to allow collection of the Collateral, (v) take control of any proceeds of the Collateral, and 23 (vi) execute (in the name, place and stead of any Grantor) endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral. SECTION 6.2 Securities Laws. If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Collateral pursuant to Section 6.1, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor will, at its own expense: (a) execute and deliver, and cause (or, with respect to any issuer which is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use its best efforts to cause) each issuer of the Collateral contemplated to be sold and the directors, officers, managers, general partners and trustees thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, advisable to register such Collateral under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended (the "Securities Act"), and cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto; (b) use its best efforts to qualify the Collateral under the state securities or "Blue Sky" laws and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Collateral, as requested by the Collateral Agent; (c) cause (or, with respect to any issuer which is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use its best efforts to cause) each such issuer to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and (d) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of the Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law. Each Grantor further acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages that would be suffered by any of the Secured Parties by reason of the failure of such Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in this Section and, consequently, agrees that, if such Grantor shall fail to perform any of such covenants, it shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the value (as determined by an independent appraiser) of the Collateral on the date the Collateral Agent shall demand compliance with this Section. SECTION 6.3 Compliance with Restrictions. Each Grantor agrees that (a) in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to (i) avoid any violation of applicable law 24 (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral), or (ii) obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental authority or official, and (b) such Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable nor accountable to such Grantor for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction; provided that the Collateral Agent acted in compliance with Article 9 of the UCC. SECTION 6.4 Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities arising out of or resulting from this Security Agreement (including enforcement of this Security Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the Collateral Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct. (b) Each Grantor will, upon demand, pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of each Credit Document, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties hereunder, and (iv) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof. (c) All of the foregoing fees, costs and expenses shall be part of the Secured Obligations and shall be secured by the Collateral. This Section 6.4 shall survive the termination of this Security Agreement. SECTION 6.5 Protection of Collateral. The Collateral Agent may from time to time, at its option, perform any act which any Grantor fails to perform after being requested in writing so to perform by the Collateral Agent (it being understood that no such request need be given after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) and the Collateral Agent may from time to time take any other action which the Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary 25 for the maintenance, preservation or protection of any of the Collateral or of its security interest therein. SECTION 6.6 Application of Proceeds. All cash proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the proceeds of the Collateral shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to payment of the Secured Obligations in the following order unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise direct: (a) FIRST, to payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Secured Obligations or of the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement; (b) SECOND, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest and fees, pro rata among the Secured Parties in accordance with the amount of such accrued and unpaid interest and fees owing to each of them; (c) THIRD, to payment of the principal of the Secured Obligations (including without limitation Rate Protection Obligations included in the Secured Obligations), pro rata among the Secured Parties in accordance with the amount of such principal owing to each of them; (d) FOURTH, to payment of any other Secured Obligations (other than those listed above) pro rata among the Secured Parties in accordance with the amounts owing to each of them; and (e) FIFTH, the balance, if any, after all of the Secured Obligations have been satisfied, to the applicable Grantor or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive them; provided, that prior to the Termination Date, such balance may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be used by the Collateral Agent as additional collateral to be applied at any time thereafter pursuant to this Section 6.6. ARTICLE 7 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS SECTION 7.1 Credit Document. This Security Agreement is a "Credit Document" executed pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall (unless otherwise expressly indicated herein) be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof, including Article X thereof. SECTION 7.2 Binding on Successors, Transferees and Assigns; Assignment. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date has occurred, shall be binding upon each Grantor and its successors, transferees and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns; provided, however, that no Grantor may assign any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, any Secured 26 Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Secured Obligations held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the rights and benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party under this Security Agreement or otherwise, subject, however, to any contrary provisions in such assignment or transfer, and to the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement. SECTION 7.3 Amendments, etc. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement, nor consent to any departure by any Grantor from its obligations under this Security Agreement, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Lenders or the Required Lenders or Super-Majority Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement) and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. SECTION 7.4 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement (i) in the case of the Collateral Agent, at the address specified for the Administrative Agent in the Credit Agreement, and (ii) in the case of the Grantors, at the respective addresses specified for such Grantor in this Security Agreement (or as otherwise specified to the Collateral Agent in writing given in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement). SECTION 7.5 Foreign Pledge Agreements. Without limiting any of the rights, remedies, privileges or benefits provided hereunder to the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party, each Grantor and the Collateral Agent hereby agree that the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement in respect of any Collateral subject to the pledge or other lien of a Foreign Pledge Agreement are, and shall be deemed to be, supplemental and in addition to the rights, remedies, privileges and benefits provided to the Secured Parties under such Foreign Pledge Agreement and under applicable law to the extent consistent with applicable law; provided, that, in the event that the terms of this Security Agreement conflict or are inconsistent with the applicable Foreign Pledge Agreement or applicable law governing such Foreign Pledge Agreement, (i) to the extent that the provisions of such Foreign Pledge Agreement or applicable foreign law are, under applicable foreign law, necessary for the creation, perfection or priority of the security interests in the Collateral subject to such Foreign Pledge Agreement, the terms of such Foreign Pledge Agreement or such applicable law shall be controlling and (ii) otherwise, the terms hereof shall be controlling. SECTION 7.6 Release of Liens. Upon (a) a Permitted Asset Sale of Collateral, or (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, the security interests granted herein shall automatically terminate with respect to (i) such Collateral (in the case of clause (a)) or (ii) all Collateral (in the case of clause (b)). Upon such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the applicable Grantor's sole expense, deliver to such Grantor, without any representations, warranties or recourse of any kind whatsoever, all terminated Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
