Section 5. Administration of Security.

(a) Each Pledgor shall be entitled (subject to the other provisions hereof, including, without limitation, Section 8 below):

(i) until receipt of notice to the contrary from the Collateral Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default and while such Event of Default continues, to vote or consent with respect to the Pledged Shares; provided however, that no vote or other right shall be exercised or action taken by any Pledgor which would have the effect of causing a material impairment of the rights of the Collateral Agent in respect of such Pledged Collateral; and

(ii) until receipt of notice to the contrary from the Collateral Agent delivered during the continuance of an Event of Default and while such Event of Default continues, to receive cash dividends or other distributions in the ordinary course made in respect of the Pledged Shares, to the extent permitted to be paid pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent as its proxy and attorney-in-fact (as set forth in Section 20 below) with respect to its Pledged Collateral, including the right to vote such Pledged Collateral, with full power of substitution to do so.

No Disposition, etc. Except, in each case, as and to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor agrees that such Pledgor will not sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Pledged Shares or any other Pledged Collateral, nor will such Pledgor create, incur or permit to exist any Lien with respect to any of the Pledged Shares, any other Pledged Collateral or any interest therein, or any proceeds thereof. Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom), each Pledgor agrees that it will not vote to enable, and will not otherwise permit, any Issuer to (a) issue any stock or other securities of any nature in addition to or in exchange or substitution for the Pledged Shares or (b) dissolve, liquidate, retire any of its capital stock, reduce its capital or merge or consolidate with any other Person, except in each case as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement.

designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may determine, all without liability except to account for property actually received by the Collateral Agent, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

Section 8. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Pledgor or any other person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and/or notices are hereby expressly waived), may forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of (including the disposition by merger) and deliver said Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, in one or more portions at public or private sale or sales or transactions, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for any combination of cash and/or securities or other property or on credit or for future delivery without assumption by any Secured Creditor of any credit risk, with the right to the Collateral Agent upon any such sale or sales, public or private, to purchase the whole or any part of said Pledged Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Pledgor, which right or equity is hereby expressly waived or released Each Pledgor agrees that the Collateral Agent need not give more than ten (10) days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale or other intended disposition is to take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if such Pledgor has signed after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and under any other applicable law.

Section 9. Sale of Pledged Shares.

(a) Each Pledgor recognizes that the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Creditors, may be unable to effect a public sale or disposition (including, without limitation, any disposition in connection with a merger of any Subsidiary) of any or all the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and applicable state securities laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales or dispositions thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who 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. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale or disposition may result in prices and other terms (including the terms of any securities or other property received in connection therewith) less favorable to the seller than if such sale or disposition were a public sale or disposition and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale or disposition shall be deemed to be reasonable and

8

affected in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral in order to permit any Pledgor or any Issuer to register such securities for public sale under the Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Pledgor or any Issuer would agree to do so. No Secured Creditor shall incur any liability as a result of the sale of any such Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale provided for in this Agreement conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, and each Pledgor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Creditors arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.

(b) Each Pledgor agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale or sales or dispositions of any portion or all of the Pledged Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales or dispositions, all at such Pledgor’s expense.

(c) Each Pledgor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Secured Creditors, each of their respective successors and assigns, officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person in control of any thereof, from and against any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees (collectively called the “Indemnified Liabilities”), under federal and state securities laws or otherwise insofar as such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense:

(i) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or offering memorandum or in any preliminary prospectus or preliminary offering memorandum or in any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing or in any other writing prepared in connection with the offer, sale or resale of all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral unless such untrue statement of material fact was provided by the Collateral Agent specifically for inclusion therein; or

(ii) arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

such indemnification to remain operative regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent, any Secured Creditor or any successor thereof, or any Person in control of any thereof. In connection with a public sale or other distribution, each Pledgor will provide customary indemnification to any underwriters, their respective successors and assigns, their respective officers and directors and each Person who controls any such underwriter (within the meaning of the Act). If and to the extent that the foregoing undertakings in this Section 9(c) may be unenforceable for any reason, each Pledgor agrees to make maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The obligations of each Pledgor under this Section 9(c) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

9

Section 10. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and any other cash at the time held by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 9.16 of the Credit Agreement. Each Pledgor shall remain liable for any deficiency remaining after such application.

Section 11. Further Assurances. Each Pledgor agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor will execute and deliver all stock powers, financing statements and such further documents and do such further acts and things as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request consistent with the provisions hereof in order to effect the purposes of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each Pledgor will take any and all actions required or requested by the Collateral Agent, from time to time, to (a) cause the Collateral Agent to obtain exclusive control of any Pledged Collateral owned by such Pledgor in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and (b) obtain from any Issuer of Pledged Collateral written confirmation of the Collateral Agent’s Control over such Pledged Collateral. For purposes of this Section 11, the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control of Pledged Collateral if (i) in the case of Pledged Collateral consisting of certificated securities, such Pledgor delivers such certificated securities to the Collateral Agent (with appropriate endorsements (in blank or otherwise) if such certificated securities are in registered form) and (ii) in the case of any other Pledged Collateral, the Collateral Agent has Control thereof for all applicable purposes of the UCC.

Section 12. Limitation on Duty of the Collateral Agent.

(a) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent under this Agreement are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither the Collateral Agent nor its Representative nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Pledgors for any act or failure to act, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent and any Representative shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in their possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent or any Representative, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of the type of Pledged Collateral involved, it being understood and agreed that neither the Collateral Agent nor any Representative shall have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps (other than steps taken in accordance with the standard of care set forth above) to protect, preserve or exercise rights against any Person with respect to any Pledged Collateral and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral upon surrendering it to the applicable Pledgor.

(b) Also without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Collateral Agent nor any Representative shall have any obligation or liability under any contract or

10

license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the granting to the Collateral Agent of a security interest therein or assignment thereof or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any Representative of any payment relating to any contract or license pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Representative be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Pledgor under or pursuant to any contract or license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any contract or license, or to present or file any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

Section 13. Severability. If any provision hereof is invalid and unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Collateral Agent and its Representative in order to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible and (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 14. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Collateral Agent of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Creditors shall be liable for any failure to collect or realize upon any of the Secured Obligations or any collateral security or guaranty therefor, or any part thereof, or for any delay in so doing, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any of the other Secured Creditors be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 15. Specific Performance. Each Pledgor agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 2(b), 4, 5(c), 6, 9 or 11 hereof will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Creditors, that the Secured Creditors have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees, without limiting the right of the Collateral Agent to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, that each and every covenant referenced above shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that the Secured Obligations have been paid in full and all commitments which could give rise to Secured Obligations have been terminated.

Section 16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, the Secured Creditors and the respective successors and assigns of the foregoing, provided, that no Pledgor shall assign or transfer its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

11

Section 17. Termination. This Agreement and the Liens granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of the Credit Agreement, the full and complete performance and indefeasible satisfaction of all the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the termination of all commitments which could give rise to Secured Obligations, whereupon the Collateral Agent shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral (including all certificates evidencing the Pledged Collateral in its possession or control) to or on the order of the Pledgors. The Collateral Agent, at the Pledgors’ expense, shall also execute and deliver to the Pledgors upon such termination such UCC termination statements and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the Pledgors to effect the termination and release of the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent created hereby.

Section 18. Possession of Pledged Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Pledged Collateral in the physical possession of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto, neither the Collateral Agent nor any nominee of the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or liability to collect any sums due in respect thereof or to protect, preserve or exercise any rights pertaining thereto, and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral upon surrendering them to the applicable Pledgor.
