Revised Article 9. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that revisions to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code ("Revised Article 9") will become effective in various states on July 1, 2001 and that Revised Article 9 may be adopted and become effective in one or more other states at any time thereafter. In anticipation of the effectiveness of Revised Article 9 and its resulting application to the Loan Documents or any matters contemplated thereby, the Administrative Agent and each Grantor hereby agree as follows: (a) In applying the law of any state at any time on and after the date Revised Article 9 is enacted (A) the Collateral includes, without limitation, each of the following categories as defined by Revised Article 9, and all property of such Grantor included therein at any time owned or acquired: goods; inventory; equipment; documents; instruments; accounts; chattel paper; deposit accounts; letter-of-credit rights; commercial tort claims; investment property; general intangibles; supporting obligations; and all products and proceeds of the foregoing; in each case wherever located, and whenever owned or acquired, and (B) the Administrative Agent's Lien in all such property created under this - 3 - 4 Agreement, as amended, shall continue in full force and effect on and under and pursuant to Revised Article 9. (b) The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time, file financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral as "all assets" of such Grantor, or words of similar effect, and which contain any other information required pursuant to Revised Article 9 for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, and such Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request. Any such financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment may be signed by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Grantor and may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 is then in effect in that jurisdiction. (c) Such Grantor shall, at any time and from time to time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any particular jurisdiction, take such steps as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (A) to obtain an acknowledgement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of any bailee having possession of any of the Collateral, stating that the bailee holds such Collateral for the Administrative Agent, (B) to obtain "control" of any letter-of-credit rights, or electronic chattel paper (as such terms are defined by Revised Article 9 with corresponding provisions thereof defining what constitutes "control" for such items of Collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (C) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's security interest in any of the Collateral and of the preservation of its rights therein, whether in anticipation of or following the effectiveness of Revised Article 9 in any jurisdiction. If such Grantor shall at any time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any particular jurisdiction, acquire a "commercial tort claim" (as such term is defined in Revised Article 9) in excess of $100,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof in writing, therein providing a reasonable description and summary thereof, and upon delivery thereof to the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall be deemed to thereby grant to the Administrative Agent (and such Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent) a security interest and Lien in and to such commercial tort claim and all proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of and governed by this Agreement. (d) Nothing contained in this Section 14 shall be construed to narrow the scope of the Administrative Agent's Liens or the perfection or priority thereof or to impair or otherwise limit any of the rights, powers, privileges, or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party under the Loan Documents." - 4 - 5 1.8 The Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Schedule VI, entitled "Commercial Tort Claims", attached hereto. 2. Reaffirmation and Grant of Security Interests. 2.1 Reaffirmation. Each Grantor hereby reaffirms all of its obligations under the Agreement, as amended hereby, to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties. 2.2 Grant of Security Interests. Each of the Grantors hereby assigns and pledges to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Agreement, as amended hereby) to secure the payment of all the Secured Obligations. 3. Conditions Precedent to Amendments. This Amendment shall be effective on the date (the "Effective Date") the Grantors and the Administrative Agent shall have duly executed and delivered this Amendment to the Administrative Agent. 4. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent: (a) The execution and delivery by such Grantor of this Amendment and the performance by such Grantor of its obligations under this Amendment are within the corporate powers of such Grantor, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such Grantor, have received all necessary governmental approval (if any shall be required), and do not and will not (i) violate any provision of law or any order, decree or judgment of any court or other government agency which is binding on such Grantor, (ii) contravene or conflict with, or result in a breach of, any provision of any organizational documents of such Grantor or of any agreement, indenture, instrument or other document which is binding on such Grantor or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien on any property of such Grantor (other than Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent). (b) Each of the representations and warranties of such Grantor contained in the Loan Documents, as amended hereby, is true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as if made on the date hereof, other than any such representations or warranties that, by their terms, refer to a specific date other than the date hereof, in which case, as of such specific date. (c) As of the date hereof, after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default under the Agreement or any other Loan Document has occurred and is continuing. 5. Miscellaneous. 5.1 From and after the date hereof, each reference in the Agreement to "this Agreement," "hereunder," "hereof," "herein," or words of like import, and each reference - 5 - 6 to the Agreement in any of the other Loan Documents shall mean and be a reference to the Agreement as amended hereby. 5.2 Except as specifically set forth above, the Agreement and the Exhibits thereto shall remain unaltered and in full force and effect and the respective terms, conditions or covenants thereof are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. This Amendment shall constitute a Collateral Document and a Loan Document for all purposes under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 5.3 This Amendment may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument. 5.4 THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTERESTS HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
