2.1 Guarantee. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Borrower when due and payable (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Borrower Obligations. It is the intent of each Guarantor that the guaranty set forth herein shall be a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.
(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable law, including applicable Debtor Relief Laws (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2).
(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the total amount of the Borrower Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder.
(d) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (i) the date of the satisfaction of the Termination Conditions or (ii) as to any Guarantor, the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor permitted under the Credit Agreement.
(e) No payment made by the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party from the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of any of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of any of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of any of the Obligations), remain liable for each of the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the earlier to occur of (i) the date of the satisfaction of the Termination Conditions or (ii) the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor permitted under the Credit Agreement.
(f) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 is a primary and original obligation of each Guarantor, is not merely the creation of a surety relationship, and is an absolute, unconditional, and continuing guaranty of payment and performance which shall remain in full force and effect without respect to future changes in conditions.
9
2.2 Primary Obligation; Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is directly, jointly and severally with any other guarantor (including each other Guarantor) of the Guarantor Obligations, liable to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Borrower or any other guarantor (including each other Guarantor), and that a separate action may be brought against such Guarantor, whether such action is brought against the Borrower or any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) or whether the Borrower or any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) is joined in such action. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its liability hereunder shall be immediate and shall not be contingent upon the exercise or enforcement by any member of the Secured Parties of whatever remedies they may have against the Borrower or any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor), or the enforcement of any lien or realization upon any security by any Secured Party. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that any release which may be given by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower or any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor), or with respect to any property or asset subject to a Lien, shall not release such Guarantor. Each Guarantor consents and agrees that no Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property or assets of the Borrower or any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) in favor of such Guarantor, or against or in payment of any or all of the Guarantor Obligations.
Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantors right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.
2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of any of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until the Termination Conditions are satisfied. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all or any of the Termination Conditions are not satisfied, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be held as collateral security for all of the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) guaranteed by such Guarantor and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine.
10
2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party and any of the Obligations continued, and any of the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, waived, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Collateral Agent (or the Required Lenders and/or such other requisite percentage of the Lenders as is required pursuant to subsection 10.1 of the Credit Agreement, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of any of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for any of the Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto, except to the extent required by applicable law.
2.5 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; each of the Obligations, and any obligation contained therein, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke the guarantee contained in this Section 2 as to future Guarantor Obligations. If such a revocation is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) no such revocation shall be effective
11
until written notice thereof has been received by the Collateral Agent, (b) no such revocation shall apply to any Guarantor Obligations in existence on the date of receipt by the Collateral Agent of such written notice (including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (c) no such revocation shall apply to any Guarantor Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of the Secured Parties in existence on the date of such revocation, (d) no payment by any Guarantor, the Borrower or from any other source, prior to the date of the Collateral Agents receipt of written notice of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor hereunder and (e) any payment by the Borrower or from any source other than a Guarantor subsequent to the date of such revocation shall first be applied to that portion of the Guarantor Obligations as to which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guaranteed hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor hereunder.

(h) any other circumstance whatsoever, other than satisfaction of the Termination Conditions, which (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Guarantor) constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for its Borrower Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance.
When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for any of the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Guarantor.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, EACH GUARANTOR WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL RIGHTS AND DEFENSES ARISING OUT OF AN ELECTION OF REMEDIES BY ANY SECURED PARTY, EVEN THOUGH SUCH ELECTION OF REMEDIES, SUCH AS A NONJUDICIAL FORECLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO SECURITY FOR THE GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS, HAS DESTROYED SUCH GUARANTORS RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION AND REIMBURSEMENT AGAINST ANY BORROWER BY THE OPERATION OF APPLICABLE LAW.
2.6 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
13

Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Collateral Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars (or in the case of Obligations denominated in a currency other than Dollars, in such currency) at the office of the Collateral Agent located at 30 Hudson Street, 5th Floor, Jersey City, New Jersey 07302 or such other address of the Collateral Agent as may be designated to the Borrower and such Guarantor from time to time in accordance with subsection 10.2 of the Credit Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any Obligations that, in accordance with the express terms of any agreement pursuant to which such Obligations were created, were denominated in any currency other than the currency of the jurisdiction where a Borrower is principally located, each Guarantor guarantees, to the fullest extent permitted under laws applicable to such Guarantor, that it shall pay the Collateral Agent strictly in accordance with the express terms of such agreement, including in the amounts and in the currency expressly agreed to thereunder, irrespective of and without giving effect to any laws of the jurisdiction where the Borrower or any Guarantor is principally located in effect from time to time, or any order, decree or regulation in the jurisdiction where the Borrower or any Guarantor is principally located.

Each Guarantor further represents and warrants to the Secured Parties that it has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document. Each Guarantor hereby covenants that it will continue to keep itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and any other guarantors of the Obligations (including any Guarantors).
2.9 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 2.9 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 2.9, or otherwise under this Guarantee, as it relates to such Loan Party, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 2.9 shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 2.9 constitute, and this Section 2.9 shall be deemed to constitute, a keepwell, support, or other agreement for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, and at the sole expense of such Granting Party, such Granting Party will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted by such Granting Party.
5.3.4 Each Granting Party covenants and agrees with the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the date of the satisfaction of the Termination Conditions, (i) such Granting Party shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each action that is necessary to be taken or not taken, as the case may be, so that no Default or Event of Default is caused by the failure to take such action or to refrain from taking such action by such Granting Party or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) agrees and covenants (A) to do each of the things set forth in the Credit Agreement that the Borrower agrees and covenants to cause such Granting Party to do and (B) to not do each of the things set forth in the Credit Agreement that the Borrower agrees and covenants to cause such Granting Party not to do, in each case, fully as though such Granting Party was a party thereto, and such agreements and covenants are incorporated herein by this reference, mutatis mutandis.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Granting Party or Granting Parties, (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, distributions, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Securities and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as is provided in Section 6.5, (ii) the Collateral Agent may elect that any or all of the Pledged Securities shall be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, and (iii) the Collateral Agent or its nominee may exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Securities at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Securities as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Securities upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by the relevant Granting Party or the Collateral Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Securities, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Securities with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably determine), all without liability (other than for its gross negligence or willful misconduct) except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to any Person to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing, provided that the Collateral Agent shall not exercise any voting or other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Securities in any way that would constitute an exercise of the remedies described in Section 6.6 other than in accordance with Section 6.6.
(c) Each Granting Party hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Granting Party hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Granting Party, and each Granting Party agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) to the extent so provided in this Section 6.3, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Securities directly to the Collateral Agent.
36
(d) If the Collateral Agent duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged Securities, each Granting Party hereby appoints the Collateral Agent, such Granting Partys true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Securities in any manner the Collateral Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.
6.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over to the Collateral Agent. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, and the Collateral Agent shall have instructed any Grantor to do so, all Proceeds received by such Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other Cash Equivalents shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by such Grantor, 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).
6.5 Application of Proceeds. It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any and all Proceeds of the relevant Granting Partys Collateral received by the Collateral Agent (whether from the relevant Granting Party or otherwise) shall be held by the Collateral Agent for its benefit and for the ratable benefit of the other Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), and/or then or at any time thereafter may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, be applied by the Collateral Agent against the Obligations in the following order of priority:
FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party, including, without limitation, all court costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, and any other reasonable costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any right or remedy under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document;
SECOND, to the ratable satisfaction of all Obligations of the relevant Granting Party then due and owing;
THIRD, to the ratable satisfaction of all other Obligations of the relevant Granting Party; and
FOURTH, to the relevant Granting Party or its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
6.6 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a
37
secured party under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Granting Party or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, brokers board or office of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall have the right to the extent permitted by law, upon any such sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Granting Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Granting Party further agrees, at the Collateral Agents request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Granting Partys premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party, in the order of priority specified in Section 6.5 above, and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Code, shall the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Granting Party. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Granting Party waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder, except to the extent arising as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.
6.7 Registration Rights. (a) If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 6.6, and if in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent it is necessary or reasonably advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Granting Party will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and use its best efforts to cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of not more than one year from the date of the first public offering of such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the
38
Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Such Granting Party agrees to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or Blue Sky laws of any and all jurisdictions which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.
(b) Such Granting Party recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all such Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Such Granting Party acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.
(c) Such Granting Party agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of such Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Such Granting Party further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Granting Party, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Granting Party hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement.
6.8 Deficiency. Each Granting Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.
6.9 Marshaling. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the
39
marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agents rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
6.10 Intellectual Property License. To the extent required for the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights under Section 6.6, the Collateral Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantors Intellectual Property, including but not limited to, any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, and advertising matter, whether owned by any Grantor or with respect to which any Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements, as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantors rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent.
SECTION VII
THE COLLATERAL AGENT
7.1 Collateral Agents Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc (a) Each Granting Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Granting Party and in the name of such Granting Party or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable law.

41
Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
(b) If any Granting Party fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.
(c) The reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Granting Party, shall be payable by such Granting Party to the Collateral Agent on demand.

All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable as to the relevant Granting Party until this Agreement is terminated as to such Granting Party, and the security interests in the Collateral of such Granting Party created hereby are released.
7.2 Duty of the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agents sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account.

The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agents and the other Secured Parties interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the other 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 Granting Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
7.3 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to applicable law, each Granting Party authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and amendments and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to such Granting Partys Collateral without the signature of such Granting Party in such form and in such offices as the Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate (including, without limitation, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office thereof)) to perfect, continue or enforce the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and naming such Granting Party as debtor and the Collateral Agent as secured party. Each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to use the collateral description all personal
42
property or all assets, in each case now owned or hereafter acquired by the Grantor or in which the Grantor otherwise has rights, in any such financing statement. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Collateral Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof.
7.4 Authority of the Collateral Agent.
(a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed by the Lenders to act as Collateral Agent hereunder. The provisions of the Credit Agreement relating to the Collateral Agent including, without limitation, the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent and the powers and duties and immunities of the Collateral Agent, are incorporated herein by reference and shall survive any termination of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Each Granting Party acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement or any amendment, supplement or other modification of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Granting Parties, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Granting Party shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

The Collateral Agent and its representatives shall also have the right, upon reasonable advance written notice to such Granting Party, to enter during normal business hours into and upon any premises owned, leased or operated by such Granting Party where any of such Granting Partys Inventory or Equipment is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting its interests therein; provided, that unless an Event of Default has occurred and continuing, the Borrower is only required to reimburse the Collateral Agent for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with one inspection per annum.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any Granting Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party or such Granting Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
8.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

(b) neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Granting Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Granting Parties, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

8.16 Security Interest Absolute; Termination or Release.
(a) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until satisfaction of the Termination Conditions. All rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the security interest granted hereby and all Guarantor Obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any Collateral therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment, amendment, or waiver or increase in any of the Obligations, (iv) any exchange, taking, or release of Collateral, (v) any change in the corporate (or other) structure or existence of the Borrower, (vi) any application of Collateral to any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (vii) any law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any Obligation or the rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party with respect thereto or (viii) any other circumstance whatsoever, other than satisfaction of the Termination Conditions, which (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Guarantor) constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Granting Party in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement.
(b) At such time as the Termination Conditions shall have been satisfied, this Agreement, the guarantees made herein, the security interest granted hereby and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Collateral Agent and each Granting Party hereunder shall automatically terminate and be released, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party.
(c) In connection with the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which a Granting Party ceases to be a Subsidiary, such Granting Party shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Lien created hereunder in the Collateral of a Granting Party shall be automatically released.

47
(e) In connection with termination or release pursuant to paragraphs (b), (c) or (d) above, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to the relevant Granting Party (at the sole cost and expense of such Grantor) all releases or other documents (including without limitation Uniform Commercial Code termination statements) necessary or reasonably desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral and, if applicable, such Guarantee as such Granting Party may reasonably request. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 8.16 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.
8.17 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Liens and rights granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the exercise of any right or remedy, by the Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.
