and (h) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Security Event of Default, upon request of the Secured Party, promptly notify (and such Obligor hereby authorizes the Secured Party so to notify) each account debtor in respect of any Accounts or Instruments that such Collateral has been assigned to the Secured Party hereunder, and that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral are to be made directly to the Secured Party to be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations. SECTION 4.02. Other Financing Statements and Encumbrances. Without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, no Obligor shall authorize to be filed, in any jurisdiction, any financing statement or like instrument with respect to the Collateral in which the Secured Party is not named as the sole secured party except as to Permitted Liens. SECTION 4.03. Preservation of Rights. The Secured Party shall not be required to take steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral. SECTION 4.04. Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral. (a) Pledged Collateral. (i) So long as no Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors shall have the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Pledged Collateral, provided that each Obligor agrees that it will not vote the Pledged Collateral pledged or charged by it hereunder in any manner that is in violation of the terms of the Security Documents; and the Secured Party shall execute and deliver to the Obligors or cause to be executed and delivered to the Obligors all such proxies, powers of attorney, dividend and other orders, and all such instruments, without recourse, as the Obligors may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Obligors to exercise the rights and powers that they are entitled to exercise pursuant to this paragraph (a)(i). (ii) Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict any Subsidiary of any Obligor set forth in Annex 2 from declaring and paying to any Obligor any dividends or distributions in respect of its ownership interests held by the Obligor, provided that following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Security Event of Default all such dividends and distributions shall be paid directly to a segregated interest-bearing cash collateral account established by and in the name of the Secured Party (for the benefit of such Obligor) and shall be held therein as additional Collateral hereunder. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, such dividends or distributions shall be paid to any Obligor following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Security Event of Default, the same shall be held by such Obligor in trust for the Secured Party and the other Secured Party, segregated from the other funds of such Obligor, and promptly turned over to the Secured Party for deposit into the aforesaid account. (b) Assigned and Other Agreements. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Obligor party to any Assigned Agreement or other relevant agreement shall remain liable under such Assigned Agreement or other agreement to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed. The exercise by the Secured Party of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Obligor from any of its duties or obligations under any Assigned Agreement or any such other agreement, except to the extent provided therein or any consent and agreement relating thereto and upon foreclosure and assignment of such Assigned Agreement. The Secured Party shall have no obligation or liability under any Assigned Agreement or such other agreement, by reason of the existence of this Agreement, nor shall the Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Obligor thereunder or to take action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder, except to the extent provided therein or any such consent and agreement. If any Obligor fails to perform any agreement contained herein or in any of the Assigned Agreements or other agreements constituting part of the Collateral required to be performed by such Obligor, within 30 days after receipt by the Seller of written notice from the Secured Party informing it of such failure, the Secured Party may itself perform, or cause the performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Company and shall be Secured Obligations entitled to the benefits of the collateral security provided pursuant to Article III. (c) Intellectual Property. (i) For the purpose of enabling the Secured Party to exercise rights and remedies under Section 5.01 at such time as the Secured Party shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Obligor hereby grants to the Secured Party, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Obligor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Obligor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license 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. (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as no Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors 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 the Obligors. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless a Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing the Secured Party shall from time to time, upon the request of the respective Obligor through the Company, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, that such Obligor through the Company shall have certified are appropriate (in their judgment) to allow them to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to paragraph (i) immediately above as to any specific Intellectual Property). Further, upon the payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations and cancellation or termination of the Commitments or earlier expiration of this Agreement or release of the Collateral, the Secured Party shall grant back to the Obligors the license granted pursuant to said paragraph (i). The exercise of rights and remedies under Section 5.01 by the Secured Party shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Obligors in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph (ii). (iii) The security interests granted by each Obligor hereunder in Intellectual Property are intended to assure the ownership, operation, exploitation and use of the EDS Satellite by Secured Party or any transferee following foreclosure, and the Secured Party shall not have any right to sell or otherwise transfer any Intellectual Property independently of a transfer of the EDS Satellite to a buyer on foreclosure. In addition, so long as the foregoing license to the Intellectual Property is available to assure the effective ownership, operation, exploitation and use of the EDS Satellite, neither the Secured Party nor any successor shall have any right to acquire ownership thereof. (d) EDS Satellite. Each Obligor agrees and acknowledges that (i) the Collateral includes a pledge by the Seller of the EDS Satellite, (ii) that the Secured Party intends to perfect its security interest in and security interest on such satellite, (iii) that the Obligors anticipate that, in due course, ownership of the EDS Satellite is expected to be sold by Seller to Skynet and by Skynet to SkynetBrazil, and (iv) that any such sale of the EDS Satellite is and shall at all times be permitted pursuant to the terms hereof, provided, however, that any transfer thereof shall be fully subject, in all respects, to the Secured Party's continuing security interest therein until released upon the payment and performance in full of all Secured Obligations. Without limiting in any respect any other provisions of this Agreement, each Obligor agrees to assist the Secured Party in achieving and maintaining perfection of its security interest in the EDS Satellite through whatever method or methods the Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request, including (i) filing UCC financing statements on the basis that satellites constitute "mobile goods" under the Uniform Commercial Code, (ii) filing UCC financing statements or other security interest perfection documents in each jurisdiction in which the satellite is manufactured, integrated or processed, from where any satellite is launched, from where it is controlled or in which it may from time to time be deemed located to the extent such filing in such jurisdiction is reasonably required in order to perfect and maintain the perfection of the Secured Party's security interests therein and security interest thereon, or priority (iii) taking all actions required to be consistent with present and future practices of third-party creditors intending to perfect security interests in satellites owned by United States persons launched from any location and (iv) taking all actions reasonably required from time to time to create, maintain, ensure the priority of, and perfect security interests in satellites like the EDS Satellite (both before and after launch and while in orbit and prior to and after any permitted sale) as specified in any United States, foreign or international law, regulation, convention or treaty relating to the creation, perfection and/or priority of security interests and security interests in satellites. (e) Insurance. All cash proceeds of Insurance Policies, up to the maximum amount of the then outstanding Secured Obligations shall be paid to and held by the Secured Party as cash collateral hereunder in an account in Seller's name pursuant to a control agreement in customary form, pursuant to which Secured Party has exclusive control thereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, the right to make withdrawals in accordance with the terms of this Agreement without consent of the Seller). The Secured Party agrees that it will invest any such cash collateral only in Cash Equivalents. Proceeds of such investments shall be held by the Secured Party as additional collateral hereunder until it holds cash collateral (or investments thereof) equal to the amount of the outstanding Secured Obligations, and thereafter the Secured Party shall promptly pay such excess over to the Seller. (f) Other Cash Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, so long as no Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors will be permitted without restriction to use any cash Collateral (other than cash proceeds from the Insurance Policies, which shall be governed by Section 4.04(e) of this Agreement) and nothing herein shall create any obligation for an Obligor to transfer such cash Collateral to the Secured Party. SECTION 4.05. TT&C Deliverables. For the purpose of enabling the Secured Party to exercise rights and remedies under Section 5.01, at such time as the Secured Party shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies the Obligors will furnish Buyer with the documentation, data and software specified in Annex 4 hereto, one (1) set of encryption keys that are compatible with the EDS spacecraft secure command system and one (1) command encryptor, in each case which shall conform with the requirements of Exhibit A to the EDS Contract (collectively, the "Deliverables"), subject to all requisite government approvals and compliance with all governmental procedures, and agree to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Secured Party in obtaining such approvals and complying with such procedures. The Buyer acknowledges that its access to certain of the Collateral will be subject to U.S. laws ("Restricted Deliverables"), including without limitation, U.S. export control laws. Accordingly, Buyer agrees that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer shall not take any action that would constitute a violation of applicable U.S. laws and shall obtain all such approval and consent as may be necessary for it to obtain access to the Restricted Deliverables, including without limitation, such approvals and consents as may be required under U.S. export control laws. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer shall also not take any action relating to the Deliverables that would constitute a violation of applicable Brazilian laws and regulations or of the ANATEL Concession Agreement; or (ii) permit early termination or cause forfeiture of the ANATEL Concession. ARTICLE V EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES SECTION 5.01. Security Events of Default. During the period during which a Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (a) each Obligor shall, at the request of the Secured Party, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Secured Party and such Obligor, designated in its request; (b) the Secured Party may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral; (c) the Secured Party shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not said Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Secured Party were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Obligor agrees to take all such action as may be reasonably necessary to give effect to such right) and the power of sale and other powers specified in the Conveyance Act 1983 of Bermuda, as varied or amended by this Agreement; (d) the Secured Party in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of the Obligors or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and (e) the Secured Party may, upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Obligors of the time and place, with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof that shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Secured Party or any of their respective agents, sell, transfer, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Secured Party deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery, 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 above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and any Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, transferee, 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 the Obligors, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. The Secured Party 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Secured Party agrees that it will not take, and will not require any Obligor to take, any action pursuant to this Section 5.01 with respect to any Pledged Stock or other Collateral until such time as any government approval or consent required in connection therewith, including, without limitation, that of ANATEL has been granted or obtained and will not take, and will not require any Obligor to take, any action pursuant to this Section 5.01 with respect to any of the Deliverables in violation of any applicable laws or regulations or of the ANATEL Concession Agreement. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Security Event of Default the Obligors shall at the request of the Secured Party use their reasonable best efforts to assist the Secured Party in obtaining any governmental approval or consent, including that of ANATEL, that may be necessary to allow for the exercise remedies provided herein with respect to the Collateral. The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section, including by virtue of the exercise of the license granted to the Secured Party in Section 4.04(c), shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.05. Any such sale or other disposition under this Section shall be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. The Obligors recognize that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Secured Party 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 The Obligors acknowledge that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Secured Party than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Secured Party shall 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 respective issuer thereof to register it for public sale. SECTION 5.02. Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.01 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, SS/L (but not any other Obligor) shall remain liable for any deficiency. SECTION 5.03. Removals, Etc. Except upon at least 30 days' prior written notice to the Secured Party, each Obligor shall not: (i) maintain the original or "master" copies of any of its books and records with respect to the Collateral at any office or maintain its principal place of business at any place, or (except with respect to Collateral in the possession of the Secured Party) permit any Collateral to be located anywhere other than at one of the locations identified in Annex 5 under its name (other than the EDS Satellite in orbit), or (ii) change its name from the name shown on the signature pages hereto. SECTION 5.04. Private Sale. No Secured Party shall incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 5.01(e) conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Obligor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party 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 Secured Obligations, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. SECTION 5.05. Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, 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 Secured Party under this Agreement, shall be applied by the Secured Party: First, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations; and Thereafter, to the payment to the respective Obligor, or their respective successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining. As used in this Article, "proceeds" of Collateral means cash, securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind of, Collateral, including any thereof received under any reorganization, liquidation or adjustment of debt of the Obligors or any issuer of or obligor on any of the Collateral. SECTION 5.06. Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Secured Party while no Security Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Security Event of Default the Secured Party is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of each Obligor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions hereof and taking any action and executing any instruments that the Secured Party may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Secured Party shall be entitled under this Article V to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Secured Party shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of any Obligor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. SECTION 5.07. Perfection and Priority. Prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Obligor shall (i) file such financing statements and other documents in such offices as the Secured Party may reasonably request to perfect or ensure the priority of the security interests granted by Article III, (ii) take any action as the Secured Party may reasonably request to perfect the pledge of any ownership interests for purposes of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code and/or (iii) deliver to the Secured Party all certificates identified in Annex 2, accompanied by undated stock or transfer powers or share transfer forms duly executed in blank. SECTION 5.08. Release of Collateral Termination. (a) Upon the earlier of (i) the performance and payment in full of all Secured Obligations, (ii) prepayment by Seller to Secured Party of an amount equal to $50 million less the sum of all milestone payments earned by Seller to date pursuant to the Procurement Agreement, and (iii) the termination of the Procurement Agreement by the Secured Party pursuant to Article 17 thereof, this Agreement shall automatically terminate. (b) At all times after the amount of cash Collateral (including investments thereof) held by the Secured Party shall first equal the then outstanding Secured Obligations, the sole Collateral under this Agreement shall, subject to Section 5.08(c) below, be such cash Collateral, and the Obligors shall be relieved from compliance with any and all obligations, representations and warranties under this Agreement with respect to any other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Article IV. (c) If at any time the amount of cash Collateral (including investments thereof) held by the Secured Party shall exceed the then outstanding Secured Obligations, such excess cash Collateral shall cease to constitute Collateral and the Obligors shall at all times thereafter be relieved from compliance with any and all obligations, representations and warranties under this Agreement with respect to such excess cash Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Article IV. The Secured Party shall promptly pay to Seller such excess cash Collateral. (d) At any time that any property of the Obligors shall cease to constitute Collateral under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, upon termination of this Agreement), the Secured Party shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever (except that the Secured Party assigns, transfers and delivers free of any Lien created with its consent), any such property and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the respective Obligor and to be released and canceled all licenses and rights referred to in Section 4.04(c) that cease to constitute Collateral. The Secured Party shall also execute and deliver to the respective Obligor upon such release of property of the Obligors such Uniform Commercial Code termination statements and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the respective Obligor to effect the termination and release of the security interest on such property. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to require a release of Buyer's security interest in all work-in-progress on the Purchased Satellite, which shall continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Procurement Agreement. SECTION 5.09. Further Assurances. Each Obligor agrees that, from time to time upon the written request of the Secured Party, such Obligor will execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as the Secured Party may reasonably request in order fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each Obligor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Obligor where permitted by law, provided that copies of any such statement or amendment thereto shall promptly be delivered to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require any Obligor to obtain any "control agreement" relating to accounts prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Security Event of Default. SECTION 5.10. Standstill. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary providing rights to the Secured Party or imposing obligations on any Obligor which are expressly available only after a Security Event of Default shall have occurred, the Secured Party shall not exercise any such rights and no Obligor shall have any such obligation unless (i) the Secured Obligations are due and unpaid pursuant to the terms of the Procurement Agreement, and (ii) the Secured Party shall given to the Obligors at least 30 days' prior written notice of intent to exercise such right or to bind the Obligor to such obligation. ARTICLE VI MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 6.01. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Secured Party or any other- Secured Party 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 Secured Party or any other Secured Party of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. SECTION 6.02. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and demands hereunder shall be in writing and telecopied or delivered to the intended recipient at (i) in the case of each Obligor, c/o the Seller at the address specified in the Procurement Agreement; and (ii) in the case of the Secured Party at the address specified for it in the Procurement Agreement, and shall be deemed to have been given at the times specified for such types of notices in the Procurement Agreement. SECTION 6.03. Expenses. (a) Seller agrees to reimburse the Secured Party for all reasonable costs and expenses of the Secured Party (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) in accordance with the final sentence of this paragraph 6.03(a) in connection with (i) any Security Event of Default and any enforcement or collection proceeding resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, all manner of participation in, or other involvement with (w) performance by the Secured Party of any obligations of the Obligors in respect of the Collateral that the Obligors have failed or refused to perform, (x) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or liquidation proceedings of any Obligor (other than those in existence on the date hereof), or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and claims of the Secured Party in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, including expenses of insurance, (y) judicial or regulatory proceedings and (z) workout, restructuring or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated) and (ii) the enforcement of this Section. Seller's obligation to reimburse the Secured Party for such reasonable costs and expenses under this Section 6.03(a) shall be limited as follows: (1) Seller shall reimburse up to the first $300,000 of the reasonable costs and expenses of the Secured Party, (2) costs and expenses of the Secured Party in excess of $300,000 and less than $800,000 shall be for the Secured Party's own account, and (3) Seller shall reimburse the reasonable costs and expenses of the Secured Party in excess of $800,000. (b) The Seller will pay all filing, registration and recording fees or refiling, re-registration and re-recording fees, and all expenses incident to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any agreement supplemental hereto and any instruments of further assurance, and all federal, state, county and municipal stamp taxes and other taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of any Security Document. (c) The Seller will pay, before any fine, penalty, interest or cost attaches thereto, all taxes, assessments and other governmental or non-governmental charges or levies now or hereafter assessed or levied against the Collateral or upon the Security interests provided for herein as well as pay, or cause to be paid, all claims for labor, materials or supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become an Encumbrance thereon, and will retain copies of, and, upon request, permit the Secured Party to examine, receipts showing payment of any of the foregoing, in each case only to the extent that nonpayment is reasonably likely to impair the Collateral or the ability of the Obligors to perform their obligations under this Agreement.

Any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Secured Party, each other Secured Party and each Obligor. SECTION 6.05. Successors and Assigns.
