     (vi) The Grantor will use its commercially reasonable efforts, upon the Collateral Agent’s written request, to obtain and publish all information necessary to satisfy Rule 144 and/or Rule 145 in the event any issuer of the Rule 144/145 Securities is not current in its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 at the time of a foreclosure sale by the Collateral Agent.
     (d) Grantor owns no Commodity Account in respect of which such Grantor is the Commodity Customer.

14


 

     (e) All Pledged Equity Interests owned by such Grantor are owned by it free and clear of any Lien other than the Permitted Collateral Liens. All shares of capital stock included in such Pledged Equity Interests (including shares of capital stock in respect of which such Grantor owns a Security Entitlement) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. None of such Pledged Equity Interests is subject to any option to purchase or similar right of any Person. Such Grantor is not and will not become a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement (except the Secured Documents) which restricts in any manner the rights of any present or future holder of any Pledged Equity Interest with respect thereto.
     (f) Such Grantor has good and marketable title to all its Collateral (subject to exceptions that are, in the aggregate, not material), free and clear of any Lien other than Permitted Collateral Liens.
     (g) Such Grantor has not performed any acts that might prevent the Collateral Agent from enforcing any of the provisions of the Collateral Documents or that would in any material respect limit the Collateral Agent in any such enforcement. No financing statement, security agreement, mortgage or similar or equivalent document or instrument covering all or part of the Collateral owned by such Grantor is on file or of record in any jurisdiction in which such filing or recording would be effective to perfect or record a Lien on such Collateral, except financing statements, mortgages or other similar or equivalent documents with respect to Permitted Collateral Liens. After the date hereof, no Collateral owned by such Grantor will be in the possession or under the Control of any other Person having a claim thereto or security interest therein, other than a Permitted Collateral Lien.
     (h) The Transaction Liens on all Personal Property Collateral owned by such Grantor (i) have been validly created, (ii) will attach to each item of such Collateral on the date hereof (or, if such Grantor first obtains rights thereto on a later date, on such later date) and (iii) when so attached, will secure all the Secured Obligations or such Grantor’s Secured Guarantee, as the case may be.
     (i) When the relevant Mortgages have been duly executed and delivered, the Transaction Liens on all Real Property Collateral owned by such Grantor as of the date hereof will have been validly created and will secure all the Secured Obligations or such Grantor’s Secured Guarantee, as the case may be. When such Mortgages have been duly recorded, such Transaction Liens will rank prior to all other Liens (except Permitted Collateral Liens) on such Real Property Collateral.
     (j) Such Grantor has delivered a Perfection Certificate to the Collateral Agent. With respect to each Original Grantor, information set forth therein is

15


 

correct and complete as of the date hereof. Within 60 days after the date hereof, such Original Grantor will furnish to the Collateral Agent a file search report from each UCC filing office listed in its Perfection Certificate, showing the filing made at such filing office to perfect the Transaction Liens on its Collateral.
     (k) When UCC financing statements describing the Collateral as “all personal property” have been filed in the offices specified in such Perfection Certificate, the Transaction Liens will constitute perfected security interests in the Personal Property Collateral owned by such Grantor to the extent that a security interest therein may be perfected by filing pursuant to the UCC, prior to all Liens and rights of others therein except Permitted Collateral Liens. When, in addition to the filing of such UCC financing statements, the applicable Intellectual Property Filings have been made with respect to such Grantor’s Recordable Intellectual Property (including any future filings required pursuant to Sections 4(a) and 5(a)), the Transaction Liens will constitute perfected security interests in all right, title and interest of such Grantor in its Recordable Intellectual Property to the extent that security interests therein may be perfected by such filings, prior to all Liens and rights of others therein except Permitted Collateral Liens. Except for (i) the filing of such UCC financing statements, (ii) such Intellectual Property Filings and (iii) the due recordation of the Mortgages, no registration, recordation or filing with any governmental body, agency or official is required in connection with the execution or delivery of the Collateral Documents or is necessary for the validity or enforceability thereof or for the perfection or due recordation of the Transaction Liens or for the enforcement of the Transaction Liens.
     (l) Such Grantor has taken, and will continue to take, all actions necessary under the UCC to perfect its interest in any Accounts or Chattel Paper purchased or otherwise acquired by it, as against its assignors and creditors of its assignors.
     (m) Such Grantor’s Collateral is insured as required by the Indenture.
     (n) To the best of such Grantor’s knowledge, all of such Grantor’s Inventory has or will have been produced in compliance in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended.
     (o) The execution and delivery by such Grantor of, and the performance by such Grantor of its obligations under, this Agreement will not contravene (A) any provision of applicable law, (B) the certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or other organizational documents in the case of a non-corporate Grantor) of such Grantor, (C) any agreement or other instrument binding upon such Grantor or any of its subsidiaries or (D) any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or court having jurisdiction over the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, except, in the cases of (C) and (D), for contraventions that would not

16


 

have a material adverse effect on the Issuer and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or the Transaction Liens.
     (p) This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by such Grantor and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of such Grantor, enforceable against such Grantor in accordance with its terms, except as (i) the enforceability hereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or remedies generally (regardless of whether considered in an action at law or in equity) and (ii) the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by equitable principles of general applicability.
     SECTION 4. Further Assurances; General Covenants. Each Grantor covenants as follows:
     (a) Such Grantor will, from time to time, at the Issuer’s expense, execute, deliver, file and record any statement, assignment, instrument, document, agreement or other paper and take any other action (including any Intellectual Property Filing) that from time to time may be necessary or desirable, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to:
     (i) create, preserve, perfect, confirm or validate the Transaction Liens on such Grantor’s Collateral;
     (ii) in the case of Pledged Deposit Accounts, Pledged Investment Property and Pledged Letter-of-Credit Rights, cause the Collateral Agent to have Control thereof;
     (iii) enable the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties to obtain the full benefits of the Collateral Documents; or
     (iv) enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies with respect to any of such Grantor’s Collateral.
Such Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and file such financing statements or continuation statements in such jurisdictions with such descriptions of collateral (including “all assets” or “all personal property” or other words to that effect) and other information set forth therein as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence. Each Grantor also ratifies its authorization for the Collateral Agent to file in any such jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. The Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States

17


 

Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country) such documents as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interests granted by each Grantor, without the signature of any Grantor, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Collateral Agent as secured party. The Issuer will pay the costs of, or incidental to, any Intellectual Property Filings and any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements or other documents recorded or filed pursuant hereto.
     (b) Such Grantor will not (i) change its name or organizational form or structure, (ii) change its location (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-307) or (iii) become bound, as provided in UCC Section 9-203(d) or otherwise, by a security agreement entered into by another Person, unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent at least 10 days’ prior written notice thereof and taken all steps necessary to maintain the Transaction Liens in the Collateral of such Grantor.
     (c) [Reserved.]
     (d) If any of its (A) Collateral (other than Collateral constituting Inventory) with a value exceeding $1,000,000 or (B) Collateral constituting Inventory with a value exceeding $10,000,000), individually or in the aggregate at any time outstanding, is in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee or agent at any time, such Grantor will (i) notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the relevant Transaction Liens, (ii) instruct such warehouseman, bailee or agent to hold all such Collateral for the Collateral Agent’s account subject to the Collateral Agent’s instructions (which shall permit such Collateral to be removed by such Grantor in the ordinary course of business until the Collateral Agent notifies such warehouseman, bailee or agent that an Actionable Default has occurred and is continuing), (iii) cause such warehouseman, bailee or agent to Authenticate a Record acknowledging that it holds possession of such Collateral for the Collateral Agent’s benefit and (iv)make such Authenticated Record available to the Collateral Agent.
     (e) Such Grantor will not sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of its Collateral; provided that such Grantor may do any of the foregoing unless (i) doing so would violate a covenant in the Indenture or (ii) an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing and either (A) the Collateral Agent shall have notified such Grantor that its right to do so is terminated, suspended or otherwise limited or (B) the maturity of any or all of the Secured Obligations shall have been accelerated. Concurrently with any sale, lease or other disposition (except a sale or disposition to another Grantor or a lease) permitted by the foregoing proviso, the Transaction Liens on the assets sold or disposed of (but not in any Proceeds arising from such

18


 

sale or disposition) will cease immediately without any action by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. The Collateral Agent will, at the Issuer’s expense, execute and deliver to the relevant Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the fact that any asset so sold or disposed of is no longer subject to a Transaction Lien.
     (f) Such Grantor will, promptly upon request, provide to the Collateral Agent all information and evidence concerning such Grantor’s Collateral that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request from time to time to enable it to enforce the provisions of the Collateral Documents.
     (g) Each year, at the time of delivery of annual financial statements with respect to the preceding fiscal year pursuant to Section 4.14 of the Indenture, the Issuer shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate executed by an executive officer of the Issuer certifying that all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (including fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations, including all refilings or continuations thereof, have been filed of record in each governmental, municipal or other appropriate office in each jurisdiction identified pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4 to the extent necessary to protect and perfect the security interests granted hereunder for a period of not less than 18 months after the date of such certificate (except as noted therein with respect to any continuation statements to be filed within such period).
     SECTION 5. Recordable Intellectual Property. Each Grantor covenants as follows:
     (a) With respect to Intellectual Property, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor hereby agrees to sign and deliver to the Collateral Agent Intellectual Property Security Agreements with respect to all Recordable Intellectual Property then owned by it. Thereafter, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor hereby agrees to sign and deliver to the Collateral Agent an appropriate Intellectual Property Security Agreement covering any Recordable Intellectual Property owned by it that is not covered by any previous Intellectual Property Security Agreement so signed and delivered by it. In each case, it will promptly make all Intellectual Property Filings necessary to record the Transaction Liens on such Recordable Intellectual Property.
     (b) Grantor will notify the Collateral Agent promptly if it knows that any application or registration relating to any material Recordable Intellectual Property owned or licensed by it may become abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any material adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any material adverse determination or development in, any

19


 

proceeding in the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of such Recordable Intellectual Property, its right to register or patent the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. If any of such Grantor’s rights to any material Recordable Intellectual Property are materially infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor will notify the Collateral Agent within 30 days after it learns thereof and will, unless such Grantor shall reasonably determine that such action would be of negligible value, economic or otherwise, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and take such other actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Recordable Intellectual Property.
     (c) Upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent at the written direction of the Majority Holders, each Grantor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License that is material to such Grantor’s business and under which such Grantor is a licensee to effect the assignment of all such Grantor’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, or its designee.
     SECTION 6. Investment Property. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
     (a) Certificated Securities. On the date hereof (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will deliver to the Collateral Agent as Collateral hereunder all certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities then owned by such Grantor. Thereafter, whenever such Grantor acquires any other certificate representing a Pledged Certificated Security, such Grantor will promptly (and in any case, within 10 Business Days) deliver such certificate to the Collateral Agent as Collateral hereunder. The provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation in Section 6(j) in the case of voting Equity Interests in a Foreign Subsidiary.
     (b) Uncertificated Securities. On the date hereof (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will enter into (and cause the relevant issuer to enter into) an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of each Pledged Uncertificated Security then owned by such Grantor, where the issuer of such Uncertificated Security is a Subsidiary of such Grantor (and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the relevant issuer to enter into an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of each Pledged Uncertificated Security

20


 

then owned by such Grantor, where the issuer of such Uncertificated Security is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor), and deliver such Issuer Control Agreement to the Collateral Agent (which shall enter into the same). Thereafter, whenever such Grantor acquires any other Pledged Uncertificated Security, such Grantor will enter into (and cause the relevant issuer to enter into) an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of such Pledged Uncertificated Security, where the issuer of such Uncertificated Security is a Subsidiary of such Grantor (and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the relevant issuer to enter into an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of each Pledged Uncertificated Security then owned by such Grantor, where the issuer of such Uncertificated Security is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor), and deliver such Issuer Control Agreement to the Collateral Agent (which shall enter into the same). The provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation in Section 6(j) in the case of voting Equity Interests in a Foreign Subsidiary.
     (c) Security Entitlements. On the date hereof (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will, with respect to each Security Entitlement then owned by it, enter into (and cause the relevant Securities Intermediary to enter into) a Securities Account Control Agreement in respect of such Security Entitlement and the Securities Account to which the underlying Financial Asset is credited and will deliver such Securities Account Control Agreement to the Collateral Agent (which shall enter into the same). Thereafter, whenever such Grantor acquires any other Security Entitlement, such Grantor will, as promptly as practicable, cause the underlying Financial Asset to be credited to a Controlled Securities Account.
     (d) Perfection as to Certificated Securities. When such Grantor delivers the certificate representing any Pledged Certificated Security owned by it to the Collateral Agent and complies with Section 6(h) in connection with such delivery, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Certificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others, (ii) the Collateral Agent will have Control of such Pledged Certificated Security and (iii) the Collateral Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof.
     (e) Perfection as to Uncertificated Securities. When such Grantor, the Collateral Agent and the issuer of any Pledged Uncertificated Security owned by such Grantor enter into an Issuer Control Agreement with respect thereto, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Uncertificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others, (ii) the Collateral Agent will have Control of such Pledged Uncertificated Security and (iii) the Collateral Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof.

21


 

     (f) Perfection as to Security Entitlements. So long as the Financial Asset underlying any Security Entitlement owned by such Grantor is credited to a Controlled Securities Account, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Security Entitlement will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except Liens and rights of the relevant Securities Intermediary that are Permitted Collateral Liens), (ii) the Collateral Agent will have Control of such Security Entitlement and (iii) no action based on an adverse claim to such Security Entitlement or such Financial Asset, whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien or other theory, may be asserted against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.
     (g) Agreement as to Applicable Jurisdiction. In respect of all Security Entitlements owned by such Grantor, and all Securities Accounts to which the related Financial Assets are credited, the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 8-110(e)) will at all times be located in the United States.
     (h) Delivery of Pledged Certificates. All certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities, when delivered to the Collateral Agent, will be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, with signatures appropriately guaranteed, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
     (i) Communications. Each Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices and other communications received by it with respect to (i) Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Grantor or its nominee and (ii) Pledged Security Entitlements as to which such Grantor is the Entitlement Holder.
     (j) Foreign Subsidiaries. A Grantor will not be obligated to comply with the provisions of this Section at any time with respect to any voting Equity Interest in a Foreign Subsidiary if and to the extent (but only to the extent) that such voting Equity Interest is excluded from the Transaction Liens at such time pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Excluded Property” and/or the comparable provisions of one or more Security Agreement Supplements.
     (k) Compliance with Applicable Foreign Laws. If and so long as the Collateral includes (i) any Equity Interest in, or other Investment Property issued by, a legal entity organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States or (ii) any Security Entitlement in respect of a Financial Asset issued by such a foreign legal entity, the relevant Grantor will upon request of the Collateral Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all such action as may be required under the laws of such foreign jurisdiction to ensure that the Transaction

22


 

Lien on such Collateral ranks prior to all Liens and rights of others therein to the extent permitted by such law.
     (l) Certification of Limited Liability Company and Partnership Interests. Any limited liability company and any partnership controlled by any Grantor shall either (a) not include in its operative documents any provision that any Equity Interests in such limited liability company or such partnership be a “security” as defined under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, or (b) certificate any Equity Interests in any such limited liability company or such partnership. To the extent an interest in any limited liability company or partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged hereunder is certificated or becomes certificated, each such certificate shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 6(a) and such Grantor shall fulfill all other requirements under Section 6 applicable in respect thereof.
     SECTION 7. Deposit Accounts. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
     (a) All cash other than cash held in any Excluded Account owned by such Grantor will be deposited, upon or promptly after the receipt thereof, in one or more Controlled Deposit Accounts.
     (b) In respect of each Controlled Deposit Account, the Depositary Bank’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-304) will at all times be a jurisdiction in which Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect.
     (c) So long as the Collateral Agent has Control of a Controlled Deposit Account, the Transaction Lien on such Controlled Deposit Account will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except (x) the Depositary Bank’s right to deduct its normal operating charges and any uncollected funds previously credited thereto and (y) nonconsensual Permitted Collateral Liens).
     SECTION 8. Cash Collateral Accounts. If and when required for purposes hereof or of any Secured Document, the Collateral Agent will establish with respect to each Grantor an account (its “Cash Collateral Account”), in the name and under the exclusive control of the Collateral Agent, into which all amounts owned by such Grantor that are to be deposited therein pursuant to the applicable Secured Document shall be deposited from time to time. Funds held in any Cash Collateral Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Cash Equivalents as the relevant Grantor shall request in writing from time to time; provided that if an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may select such Cash Equivalents. Subject to Section 14, withdrawal of funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall

23


 

be permitted if, as and when expressly so provided in or in respect of the applicable provision of the Secured Document pursuant to which such Cash Collateral Account was required to be established.
     SECTION 9. Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
     (a) In the case of an Original Grantor, Schedule 3 accurately describes, with the specificity required to satisfy Official Comment 5 to UCC Section 9-108, each Commercial Tort Claim with respect to which such Original Grantor is the claimant as of the date hereof other than any Commercial Tort Claim with a value of less than $5,000,000. In the case of any other Grantor, Schedule 3 to its first Security Agreement Supplement will accurately describe, with the specificity required to satisfy said Official Comment 5, each Commercial Tort Claim with respect to which such Grantor is the claimant as of the date on which it signs and delivers such Security Agreement Supplement.
     (b) If any Grantor acquires a Commercial Tort Claim with a value of $5,000,000 or more after the date hereof (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will promptly sign and deliver to the Collateral Agent a Security Agreement Supplement granting a security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim (which shall be described therein with the specificity required to satisfy said Official Comment 5) to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
     SECTION 10. Transfer Of Record Ownership. At any time when an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may (and to the extent that action by it is required, the relevant Grantor, if directed to do so by the Collateral Agent, will as promptly as practicable) cause each of the Pledged Securities (or any portion thereof specified in such direction) to be transferred of record into the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee. Each Grantor will take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to facilitate compliance with this Section. If the provisions of this Section are implemented, Section 6(b) shall not thereafter apply to any Pledged Security that is registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee. The Collateral Agent will promptly give to the relevant Grantor copies of any notices and other communications received by the Collateral Agent with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee.
     SECTION 11. Right to Vote Securities. (a) Unless an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and the Collateral Agent has given written notice as provided in Section 11(b)), each Grantor will have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any

24


 

Pledged Security owned by it and the Financial Asset underlying any Pledged Security Entitlement owned by it, including in each case, shares issued by Spectrum that are recorded at Bank of New York Mellon in the name of the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent will, upon receiving a written request from such Grantor, deliver to such Grantor or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any such Pledged Security that is registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee or any such Pledged Security Entitlement as to which the Collateral Agent or its nominee is the Entitlement Holder, in each case as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
     (b) If an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent has received written instruction from the Majority Holders, the Collateral Agent will, upon giving written notice to the applicable Grantor of its intention to exercise such rights, have the exclusive right to the extent permitted by law to vote, to give consents, ratifications and waivers and to take any other action with respect to the Available Portion of Collateral, with the same force and effect as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute and sole owner thereof, and each Grantor will take all such action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request from time to time to give effect to such right. For the avoidance of doubt, each Grantor shall retain the right to vote, give consents, ratifications and waivers and to take any other action with respect to such Available Portion of Collateral (including, when applicable, shares issued by Spectrum that are recorded at Bank of New York Mellon in the name of the Collateral Agent) in the event that (i) the Collateral Agent does not give written notice referred to above of its intention to exercise such rights or (ii) all Actionable Defaults shall no longer be continuing, in each case so long as not otherwise prohibited by the terms of the Indenture or hereof.
     SECTION 12. Certain Cash Distributions. Cash Distributions with respect to assets held in a Collateral Account shall be deposited and held therein, or withdrawn therefrom, as provided in Section 8. Cash Distributions with respect to any Pledged Equity Interest or Pledged Debt that is not held in a Collateral Account (whether held in the name of a Grantor or in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee) shall be deposited, promptly upon receipt thereof, in a Controlled Deposit Account of the relevant Grantor; provided that, if an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may deposit, or direct the recipient thereof to deposit, each such Cash Distribution in the relevant Grantor’s Cash Collateral Account.
     SECTION 13. Remedies upon Actionable Default. (a) If an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise

25


 

(or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) under the Collateral Documents with respect to the Available Portion of the Collateral.
     (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) with respect to any Personal Property Collateral and, in addition, the Collateral Agent may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or 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, irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Collateral. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and (with the consent of the Collateral Agent, which may be withheld in its discretion) 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 public sale, to use and apply all of any part of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable at such sale. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 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 law) all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obliged 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. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against any Secured Party arising because the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such

26


 

Collateral to more than one offeree. The Collateral Agent may disclaim any warranty, as to title or as to any other matter, in connection with such sale or other disposition, and its doing so shall not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale or other disposition.
     (c) If the Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the Grantors will be credited only with payment actually made by the purchaser, received by the Collateral Agent and applied in accordance with Section 14 hereof. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Collateral Agent may resell the same, subject to the same rights and duties set forth herein.
     (d) Notice of any such sale or other disposition shall be given to the relevant Grantor(s) as (and if) required by Section 16.
     (e) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement 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 an irrevocable license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors), to use, license or sublicense any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Collateral Agent may be exercised only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Actionable Default; provided, however, that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Actionable Default.
     (f) The foregoing provisions of this Section shall apply to Real Property Collateral only to the extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of any applicable Mortgage or other document.
     (g) Each Grantor hereby covenants that on the earlier to occur of (i) the occurrence of a default under any Secured Document, (ii) such time as Spectrum becomes a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined under the Securities Act rules and regulations, and (iii) at any time that the Liquid Collateral Coverage Ratio is less than 1.75 to 1, the Issuer will be required to exercise all of its contractual rights and use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as possible, cause Spectrum to file and become effective a shelf registration that shall be in form suitable for use by the Collateral Agent in connection with any disposition of Spectrum Equity Interests constituting part of the Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies, and to keep such shelf registration statement effective at all times until the earlier of the time (i) the Secured Obligations are repaid in full

27


 

or (ii) all Spectrum Equity Interests pledged as Collateral hereunder have been disposed of by the Collateral Agent.
     (h) After all Actionable Defaults have been cured or waived, at the direction of the Majority Holders, the Collateral Agent shall enter into an amendment to any Deposit Account Control Agreement that requires such Deposit Account Control Agreement be amended for the purpose of terminating the Collateral Agent’s exclusive control as a result of an Actionable Default over the related Deposit Account in the instance the Collateral Agent exercised remedies over the related Deposit Account (but otherwise such amendment will ensure the Collateral Agent retains Control of such Deposit Account).
     SECTION 14. Application of Proceeds. (a) If an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may apply (i) any cash held in the Collateral Accounts and (ii) the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral, in accordance with the Collateral Trust Agreement.
     (b) In making the payments and allocations required by this Section, the Collateral Agent may rely upon information supplied to it pursuant to Section 18(c). All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section shall be final (except in the event of manifest error) and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by any Secured Party of any amount distributed to it.
     SECTION 15. Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Issuer will forthwith upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent:
     (i) the amount of any taxes that the Collateral Agent may have been required to pay by reason of the Transaction Liens or to free any Collateral from any other Lien thereon;
     (ii) the amount of any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, including transfer taxes and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and other experts, that the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or enforcement of the Collateral Documents, including such expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Transaction Lien, (y) the collection, sale or other disposition of any Collateral or (z) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights or powers under the Collateral Documents;

28


 

     (iii) the amount of any fees that the Issuer shall have agreed in writing to pay to the Collateral Agent and that shall have become due and payable in accordance with such written agreement; and
     (iv) the amount required to indemnify the Collateral Agent for, or hold it harmless and defend it against, any loss, liability or expense (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of its counsel and any experts or sub-agents appointed by it hereunder) incurred or suffered by the Collateral Agent in connection with the Collateral Documents, except to the extent that such loss, liability or expense arises from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or a breach of any duty that the Collateral Agent has under this Agreement (after giving effect to Sections 17 and 18).
     (b) If any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax or other tax is payable in connection with any transfer or other transaction provided for in the Collateral Documents, the Issuer will pay such tax and provide any required tax stamps to the Collateral Agent or as otherwise required by law.
     (c) The Issuer shall indemnify each of the Secured Parties, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing (each an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind (including reasonable expenses of investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar technical personnel and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) arising out of, or in connection with any and all environmental liabilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor waives all rights for contribution and all other rights of recovery with respect to liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses arising under or related to environmental laws that it might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee.
     SECTION 16. Authority to Administer Collateral. Each Grantor irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Grantor, any Secured Party or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the Borrower’s expense, to the extent permitted by law to exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Actionable Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of such Grantor’s Collateral:
     (a) to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,

29


 

     (b) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,
     (c) to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and
     (d) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto;
provided that, except in the case of Personal Property Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Collateral Agent will give the relevant Grantor at least ten days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof will be made. Any such notice shall (i) contain the information specified in UCC Section 9-613, (ii) be Authenticated and (iii) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to UCC Section 9-611(c); provided that, if the Collateral Agent fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of law under the UCC.
     SECTION 17. Limitation on Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof, the Collateral Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any sub-agent or bailee selected by it in good faith or any income therefrom or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith, except to the extent that such liability arises from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
     SECTION 18. General Provisions Concerning the Collateral Agent.
     (a) The provisions of Article 7 of the Indenture shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent, and shall be binding upon all Grantors and all Secured Parties, in connection with this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Actionable Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary

30


 

powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Collateral Documents that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise in accordance with the Collateral Trust Agreement, and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to any Grantor that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Transaction Lien, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part under the Collateral Documents. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Actionable Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Collateral Agent by any Grantor or a Secured Party.
     (b) Sub-Agents and Related Parties. The Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of Section 17 and this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent.
     (c) Information as to Secured Obligations and Actions by Secured Parties. For all purposes of the Collateral Documents, including determining the amounts of the Secured Obligations, or whether any action has been taken under any Secured Document, the Collateral Agent will be entitled to rely on information from (i) its own records for information as to the Secured Parties, their Secured Obligations and actions taken by them, (ii) any Secured Party (or any trustee, agent or similar representative designated pursuant to Section 21 to supply such information) for information as to its Secured Obligations and actions taken by it, to the extent that the Collateral Agent has not obtained such information from its own records, and (iii) the Issuer, to the extent that the Collateral Agent has not obtained information from the foregoing sources.
     (d) Refusal to Act. The Collateral Agent may refuse to act on any notice, consent, direction or instruction from any Secured Parties or any agent, trustee or similar representative thereof that, in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, (i) is contrary to law or the provisions of any Collateral Document, (ii) may expose the Collateral Agent to liability (unless the Collateral Agent shall have been indemnified, to its reasonable satisfaction, for such liability by the Secured Parties that gave such notice, consent, direction or instruction) or (iii) is unduly prejudicial to Secured Parties not joining in such notice, consent, direction or instruction.

31


 

     (e) The provisions of the Collateral Trust Agreement and the Indenture relating to the Collateral Agent including, without limitation, the provisions relating to resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, reimbursement of expenses, exculpatory rights, rights to indemnification and the powers and duties and immunities of the Collateral Agent are incorporated herein by this reference and shall survive any termination of the Collateral Trust Agreement or the Indenture, as applicable.
     (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, to the extent the provisions hereunder provide for the Collateral Agent to make any request to any Grantor to take or refrain from taking any action, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to make any such request, unless instructed in writing to do so by the Majority Holders.

     (b) Upon any termination of a Transaction Lien or release of Collateral, the Collateral Agent will, at the expense of the relevant Grantor, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of such Transaction Lien or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be.

     SECTION 22. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be delivered as provided in Section 8.03 of the Collateral Trust Agreement.
     SECTION 23. No Implied Waivers; Remedies Not Exclusive. No failure by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right or remedy under any

32


 

Collateral Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any right or remedy under any Secured Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies specified in the Secured Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
     SECTION 24. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties.

33


 

OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
