          (h) generally 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, and to do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that the Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.
     6.2 No Duty on the Part of Collateral Agent or Secured Parties. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 7. REMEDIES.
     7.1 Generally.
          (a) Subject to compliance with applicable Nevada Gaming Laws and Pennsylvania Gaming Laws, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:
          (i) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly 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 that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

21


 

          (ii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;
          (iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Collateral Agent deems appropriate; and
          (iv) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of 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, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable.
          (b) The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable 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. 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. 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. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, Grantors shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent, that the Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

22


 

          (c) The Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
          (d) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.
     7.2 Application of Proceeds. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Collateral Agent against, the Secured Obligations in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as the Collateral Agent and not as a Lender) and all advances made by the Collateral Agent hereunder for the account of the applicable Grantor, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of all Secured Parties; and third, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of such Grantor or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.
     7.3 Sales on Credit. If Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.
     7.4 Deposit Accounts.
     If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may apply the balance from any Deposit Account subject to a control agreement or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account subject to a control agreement is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account to or for the benefit of the Collateral Agent.
     7.5 Intellectual Property.
          (a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:
          (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent or otherwise, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property included in the Collateral, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 10 hereof in connection with the exercise of

23


 

its rights under this Section, and, to the extent that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property as provided in this Section, each Grantor agrees to comply with its obligations under Section 4.5(b)(v) hereof;
          (ii) upon written demand from the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Collateral Agent or such Collateral Agent’s designee all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property included in the Collateral and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement;
          (iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that the Collateral Agent (or any Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, any Intellectual Property.
          (b) Solely for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7 and at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent it has the right to do so, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights of quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of said Trademarks, to use, operate under, license, or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located.
     7.6 Cash Proceeds. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent specified in Section 4.2 with respect to payments of Receivables, during the continuance of an Event of Default all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other similar non-cash items (collectively, “Cash Proceeds”) shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by such Grantor, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 4.3.1(a)(ii), be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required) and held by the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Account. Any Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent from a Grantor when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, (A) be held by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (B) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Collateral Agent against the Secured Obligations then due and owing in accordance with the application of proceeds set forth in Section 7.2.
SECTION 8. COLLATERAL AGENT.
     The Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder by Lenders and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof, the other Secured Parties (including the LVSC Notes Secured Parties who, by accepting the benefits of the security interest granted hereunder, are deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent as their agent for purposes of the grant of the security interests provided hereunder which secure the LVSC Note Obligations). The Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and 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 any action

24


 

(including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the LVSC Notes Indenture; provided, the Collateral Agent shall, after payment in full of all Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents (other than obligations under Hedging Agreements), exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for herein in accordance with the instructions of the holders of a majority of the aggregate notional amount (or, with respect to any Hedging Agreement that has been terminated in accordance with its terms, the amount then due and payable (exclusive of expenses and similar payments but including any early termination payments then due) under such Hedging Agreement) under all Hedging Agreements. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section. Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders, the LVSC Notes Trustee and the Grantors, and Collateral Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Grantors and Collateral Agent signed by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent which must be acceptable to Grantors (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder 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 or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement 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 hereunder. The Collateral Agent (including any successor Collateral Agent) shall enjoy the benefits afforded it under Section 9.6 of the Credit Agreement, it being understood that the indemnification provided thereunder shall come from the Lenders based on their Pro Rata Share as set forth therein, and that no indemnification shall be sought from, or required by, any LVSC Notes Secured Parties.
SECTION 9. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF LOANS.
     This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Credit Obligations (other than any contingent obligations for which no claim has yet been made), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation, expiration or cash collateralization on terms acceptable to the Issuing Bank of all outstanding Letters of Credit (it being understood that at such time, all security interests hereunder in favor of the LVSC Notes Secured Parties and securing the LVSC Notes Obligations shall be automatically released). Such security interests shall be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees

25


 

and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the LVSC Notes Documents, any Lender or holder of LVSC Notes may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans or LVSC Notes held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Lenders or holders of LVSC Notes, as the case may be, herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all Credit Obligations (other than any contingent obligations for which no claim has yet been made) (without regard to the LVSC Notes Obligations), the cancellation, termination of the Commitments and the cancellation, expiration or cash collateralization on terms acceptable to the Issuing Bank of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the security interest granted hereby shall automatically terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors. Upon any such termination the Collateral Agent shall, at Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to Grantors or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, including financing statement amendments and UCC-3 termination statements to evidence such termination. Upon any sale, transfer or other disposition of property permitted by the Credit Agreement (or agreed to by the Requisite Lenders and/or Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, without any requirement to obtain the concurrence of any holder of LVSC Notes Obligations or the LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee), the Liens granted herein shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor with no further action on the part of any Person. Upon the repayment of the LVSC Notes, the Liens granted herein securing the LVSC Notes shall be automatically released with no further action on the part of any Person, and all references in this Agreement to LVSC Notes Obligations and LVSC Notes Secured Parties shall be deemed to be deleted. Furthermore, upon the release of any Guarantor from the obligations of Article 7 of the Credit Agreement in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, such Grantor (and the Collateral at such time assigned by such Grantor pursuant hereto) shall be released from this Agreement. To the extent any property (including Specified FF&E) is financed by any lender pursuant to an FF&E Facility or pursuant to Section 6.1(f) or (j) the Collateral Agent shall release any Liens in favor of the Secured Parties on such assets (subject to the standstill or intercreditor agreement, if any, executed by the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent in connection with such FF&E Facility). The Collateral Agent shall, at Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such releases.
SECTION 10. STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM.
     The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody 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 as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may (to the extent provided herein) itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent

26


 

incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor under Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.
          (a) Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement (and in the case of the LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee, at the address designated for delivery of notices pursuant to the LVSC Notes Indenture).
          (b) No failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and LVSC Notes Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.
          (c) In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.
          (d) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Grantors and their respective successors and assigns. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent given in accordance with the Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder.
          (e) This Agreement and the other Credit Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Grantors and the Collateral Agent and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Credit Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.
          (f) This Agreement may be amended only by a written amendment executed by all the parties hereto evidencing their consent to such amendments. The consent of the Collateral Agent shall be directed by, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement, the vote of Required Lenders (or such other group of Lenders as is required thereunder). Amendments hereto shall not be subject to the vote or consent of any holders of LVSC Notes or the LVSC Notes Indenture Trustee.
          (g) This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and

27


 

attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.
          (h) SUBJECT TO THE APPLICATION OF NEVADA GAMING LAWS AND PENNSYLVANIA GAMING LAWS, THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAWS).

DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT
     This Deposit Account Control Agreement dated as of [                    ], 20[___] (this “Agreement") among [                    ] (the “Debtor"), [                    ], as collateral agent for the Secured Parties (the “Collateral Agent") and [                    ], in its capacity as a “bank” as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC (in such capacity, the “Financial Institution"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Security Agreement, dated as of May ___, 2007, between the Debtor, the other Grantors party thereto and the Collateral Agent (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement"). All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York.
     Section 1. Establishment of Deposit Account. The Financial Institution hereby confirms and agrees that:
     (a) The Financial Institution has established account number [IDENTIFY ACCOUNT NUMBER] in the name "[IDENTIFY EXACT TITLE OF ACCOUNT]” (such account and any successor account, the “Deposit Account") and the Financial Institution shall not change the name or account number of the Deposit Account without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and, prior to delivery of a Notice of Sole Control in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, the Debtor; and
     (b) The Deposit Account is a “deposit account” within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(29) of the UCC.
     Section 2. Control of the Deposit Account. Collateral Agent hereby agrees only to deliver a Notice of Sole Control following the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default. If at any time after the Delivery of a Notice of Sole Control the Financial Institution shall receive any instructions originated by the Collateral Agent directing the disposition of funds in the Deposit Account, the Financial Institution shall comply with such instructions without further consent by the Debtor or any other person. The Financial Institution hereby acknowledges that it has received notice of the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Deposit Account and hereby acknowledges and consents to such lien. If the Debtor is otherwise entitled to issue instructions and such instructions conflict with any instructions issued the Collateral Agent, the Financial Institution shall follow the instructions issued by the Collateral Agent.
     Section 3. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the Financial Institution has or subsequently obtains by agreement, by operation of law or otherwise a security interest in the Deposit Account or any funds credited thereto, the Financial Institution hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Collateral Agent. Money and other items credited to the Deposit Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than the Collateral Agent (except that the Financial Institution may set off (i) all amounts due to the Financial Institution in respect of customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Deposit Account and (ii) the face amount of any checks which have been credited to such Deposit Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds).

EXHIBIT B-1


 

     Section 4. Choice of Law. This Agreement and the Deposit Account shall each 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 Financial Institution’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of Section 9-304 of the UCC) and the Deposit Account shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.
     Section 5. Conflict with Other Agreements.
     (a) In the event of any conflict between this Agreement (or any portion thereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail;
     (b) No amendment or modification of this Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all of the parties hereto; and
     (c) The Financial Institution hereby confirms and agrees that:
     (i) There are no other agreements entered into between the Financial Institution and the Debtor with respect to the Deposit Account [other than                     ]; and
     (ii) It has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement, will not enter into, any agreement with any other person relating the Deposit Account and/or any funds credited thereto pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with instructions originated by such persons as contemplated by Section 9-104 of the UCC.
     Section 6. Adverse Claims. The Financial Institution does not know of any liens, claims or encumbrances relating to the Deposit Account. If any person asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against the Deposit Account, the Financial Institution will promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Debtor thereof.
     Section 7. Maintenance of Deposit Account. In addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation of the Financial Institution to honor instructions as set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Financial Institution agrees to maintain the Deposit Account as follows:
     (a) Notice of Sole Control. If at any time the Collateral Agent delivers to the Financial Institution a Notice of Sole Control in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, the Financial Institution agrees that after receipt of such notice, it will take all instruction with respect to the Deposit Account solely from the Collateral Agent.
     (b) Statements and Confirmations. The Financial Institution will promptly send copies of all statements, confirmations and other correspondence concerning the Deposit Account simultaneously to each of the Debtor and the Collateral Agent at the address for each set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement; and
     (c) Tax Reporting. All interest, if any, relating to the Deposit Account, shall be reported to the Internal Revenue Service and all state and local taxing authorities under the name and taxpayer identification number of the Debtor.

     (b) This Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Financial Institution.
     Section 9. Indemnification of Financial Institution. The Debtor and the Collateral Agent hereby agree that (a) the Financial Institution is released from any and all liabilities to the Debtor and the Collateral Agent arising from the terms of this Agreement and the compliance of the Financial Institution with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such liabilities arise from the Financial Institution’s negligence and (b) the Debtor, its successors and assigns shall at all times indemnify and save harmless the Financial Institution from and against any and all claims, actions and suits of others arising out of the terms of this Agreement or the compliance of the Financial Institution with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such arises from the Financial Institution’s negligence, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising by reason of the same, until the termination of this Agreement.
