Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.9, no Grantor will be required to provide any notice or take any action hereunder if and to the extent prohibited by any federal, state or municipal law.
4.10. No Interference. Each Grantor agrees that it will not interfere with any right, power and remedy of the Administrative Agent provided for in this Security Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, or the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies.
4.11. Insurance. In the event any material Collateral is located in any area that has been designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a Special Flood Hazard Area, each Grantor shall purchase and maintain flood insurance on such Collateral (including any personal property which is located on any real property leased by such Grantor within a Special Flood Hazard Area). The amount of flood insurance required by this Section shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of the total Commitment or the total replacement cost value of the improvements.
4.12. Intellectual Property. No Grantor has any registered interest in, or title to, any Material Registered Copyright except as set forth in Exhibit B. If, after the date hereof, any Grantor obtains rights to, or applies for or seeks registration of, any new Material Registered Copyright, then such Grantor shall give the Administrative Agent notice thereof, as part of each compliance certificate provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Each Grantor agrees promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any supplement to this Security Agreement or any other document reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence such security interest in such Material Registered Copyright in a form appropriate for recording in the United States Copyright Office.
4.13. Commercial Tort Claims. If, after the date hereof, any Grantor identifies the existence of a Commercial Tort Claim belonging to such Grantor in an amount greater than $10,000,000 that has arisen in the course of such Grantors business in addition to the Commercial Tort Claims described in Exhibit E, which are all of such Grantors Commercial Tort Claims as of the Effective Date, then such Grantor shall give the Administrative Agent prompt notice thereof, but in any event not less frequently than quarterly. Each Grantor agrees promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any supplement to this Security Agreement or any other document reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the grant of a security interest therein in favor of the Administrative Agent.
12
4.14. Updating of Exhibits to Security Agreement. The Borrower will provide to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with the delivery of the certificate of a Financial Officer of the Borrower as required by Section 5.01(c) of the Credit Agreement, updated versions of the Exhibits to this Security Agreement (provided that if there have been no changes to any such Exhibits since the previous updating thereof required hereby, the Borrower shall indicate that there has been no change to the applicable Exhibit(s)).
ARTICLE V
DEFAULT
5.1. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a Default:
5.1.1 Any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of any Grantor under or in connection with this Security Agreement shall be materially false as of the date on which made.
5.1.2 The occurrence of any Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Credit Agreement.
5.2. Remedies.
5.2.1 If any Default has occurred and is continuing then, the Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies (provided that the Administrative Agent shall endeavor, to the extent commercially reasonable, to notify the Borrower prior to the exercise of the initial remedy, provided further that any failure by the Administrative Agent to deliver any such notice shall not be deemed to be a breach by the Administrative Agent of this Security Agreement or give rise to any liability or otherwise affect the Administrative Agents rights and remedies hereunder in any manner):
(i) | Those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document, provided that this clause (i) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties prior to a Default. |
(ii) | Those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a banks right of setoff or bankers lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement. |
(iii) | Give notice of sole control or any other instruction under any Deposit Account Control Agreement or Securities Account Control Agreement and take any action therein with respect to such Collateral, provided, however, if no Default shall continue to exist, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the bank, financial institution or securities or commodities intermediary that Grantors access to the Controlled Deposit Account or Controlled Securities Account shall be reinstated. |
13
(iv) | Only to the extent a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, without notice (except as specifically provided in Section 8.1 hereof or elsewhere herein, demand or advertisement of any kind to any Grantor or any other Person) enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice and may take place at any Grantors premises of elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. |
(v) | Only to the extent a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, concurrently with written notice to the applicable Grantor, transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Administrative Agent was the outright owner thereof. |
5.2.2 The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
5.2.3 The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption the Grantor hereby expressly releases.
5.2.4 Until the Administrative Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Administrative Agents remedies (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and other Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.
5.2.5 Reserved.
5.2.6 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.
14
5.2.7 Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with Section 5.2.1 above. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the applicable Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so.
5.3. Grantors Obligations Upon Default. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, each Grantor will:
5.3.1 Assembly of Collateral. Assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent.
5.3.2 Secured Party Access. Permit the Administrative Agent, by the Administrative Agents representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay the Grantor for such use and occupancy.
5.3.3 Prepare and file, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to prepare and file, with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other applicable government agency, registration statements, a prospectus and such other documentation in connection with the Pledged Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and furnish to the Administrative Agent, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to furnish to the Administrative Agent, any information regarding the Pledged Collateral in such reasonable detail as the Administrative Agent may specify.
5.3.4 Take, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to take, any and all actions necessary to register or qualify the Pledged Collateral to enable the Administrative Agent to consummate a public sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral.
5.4. License. The Administrative Agent is hereby granted a limited license or other limited right to use, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, without charge, each Grantors labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, customer lists and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, solely for the purposes of completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral. In addition, each Grantor hereby irrevocably (until the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant to its express terms) agrees that the Administrative Agent may, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, sell any of such Grantors Inventory directly to any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased such Grantors Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Administrative Agents rights under this Security Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) finish any work in process and affix any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.
15
ARTICLE VI
WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES
No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy granted under this Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent and each Grantor, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth, provided that the addition of any Domestic Subsidiary as a Grantor hereunder by execution of a Security Agreement Supplement in the form of Annex I (with such modifications as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) shall not require receipt of any consent from or execution of any documentation by any other Grantor party hereto. All rights and remedies contained in this Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full or, in the case of Letters of Credit, cash collateralized on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE VII
PROCEEDS; COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES
7.1. Lockboxes. Upon request of the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, each Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent irrevocable lockbox agreements in the form provided by or otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which agreements shall be accompanied by an acknowledgment by the bank where the lockbox is located of the Lien of the Administrative Agent granted hereunder and of irrevocable instructions to wire all amounts collected therein to a special collateral account at the Administrative Agent.
7.2. Collection of Receivables. The Administrative Agent may at any time after the occurrence of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, by giving each Grantor written notice, elect to require that the Receivables be paid directly to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. In such event, each Grantor shall, and shall permit the Administrative Agent to, promptly notify the account debtors or obligors under the Receivables owned by such Grantor of the Administrative Agents interest therein and direct such account debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts then or thereafter due under such Receivables directly to the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall thereafter hold in trust for the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, all amounts and proceeds received by it with respect to the Receivables and Other Collateral and immediately and at all times thereafter deliver to the Administrative Agent all such amounts and proceeds in the same form as so received, whether by cash, check, draft or otherwise, with any necessary endorsements. The Administrative Agent shall hold and apply funds so received as provided by the terms of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 hereof.
16
7.3. Special Collateral Account. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, the Administrative Agent may require all cash proceeds of the Collateral to be deposited in a special non-interest bearing cash collateral account with the Administrative Agent and held there as security for the Secured Obligations. No Grantor shall have any control whatsoever over such cash collateral account. If no Default has occurred or is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall from time to time deposit the collected balances in such cash collateral account into the applicable Grantors general operating account with the Administrative Agent. If any Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may (and shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders), from time to time, apply the collected balances in such cash collateral account to the payment of the Secured Obligations whether or not the Secured Obligations shall then be due.
7.4. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Collateral received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Security Agreement shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to payment of the Secured Obligations as provided under Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement.
ARTICLE VIII
GENERAL PROVISIONS
8.1. Notice of Disposition of Collateral; Condition of Collateral. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Borrower, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing (other than the defense that the Secured Obligations shall have been fully and finally paid in cash and performed in full) which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein or in any other Loan Document, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
8.2. Limitation on Administrative Agents and other Secured Parties Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Administrative Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or
17
work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Administrative Agents exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8.2.
8.3. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.
8.4. Secured Party Performance of Grantors Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Security Agreement and such Grantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any reasonable amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.4. Each Grantors obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable within fifteen (15) days after demand.
8.5. Authorization for Secured Party to Take Certain Action. Each Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to execute on behalf of such Grantor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative
18
Agents sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agents security interest in the Collateral, (ii) upon and during the continuance of a Default, to indorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agents security interest in the Collateral, (iv) upon and during the continuance of a Default, to contact and enter into one or more agreements with the issuers of uncertificated securities which are Collateral owned by such Grantor and which are Securities or with financial intermediaries holding other Investment Property as may be necessary or advisable to give the Administrative Agent Control over such Securities or other Investment Property, (v) upon and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event and subject to the terms of Section 4.1.5 hereof, to enforce payment of the Instruments, Accounts and Receivables in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Grantor, (vi) to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Administrative Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article VII and (vii) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for such Liens as are specifically permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document), and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) days after demand for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith, provided that this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement.
8.6. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1.5, 4.1.6, 4.4, 5.3, or 8.8 or in Article VII hereof will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, that the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this Security Agreement, that the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.6 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantors.
8.7. Use and Possession of Certain Premises. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to occupy and use any premises owned or leased by the Grantors where any of the Collateral or any records relating to the Collateral are located until the Secured Obligations are paid or the Collateral is removed therefrom, whichever first occurs, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy.
8.8. Reserved.
8.9. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantors assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a voidable preference, fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
19
8.10. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that the Grantors shall not have the right to assign their rights or delegate their obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, hereunder.
8.11. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Grantors contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement.
8.12. Taxes and Expenses. Any taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) payable or ruled payable by a Federal or State authority in respect of this Security Agreement shall be paid by the Grantors, together with interest and penalties, if any. The Grantors shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees, but excluding, time charges of attorneys, paralegals, auditors and accountants who may be employees of the Administrative Agent) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Collateral). Any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Grantors in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by the Grantors.
8.13. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement.
8.14. Termination; Release. This Security Agreement shall continue in effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no Secured Obligations outstanding) until (i) any and all commitments to extend credit under the Loan Documents have terminated, and the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant to its express terms and (ii) all of the Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations) have been indefeasibly paid in cash and performed in full (or with respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit, a cash deposit or backup Letter of Credit has been delivered to the Administrative Agent as required by the Credit Agreement). Upon any sale or other disposition by any Grantor of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under the Credit Agreement, or upon the effectiveness in accordance with the Credit Agreement of any written consent to the release of the security interest in any Collateral, the security interests in such Collateral shall be automatically released without further action by any party. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantors expense and without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release, including UCC termination statements and terminations of Deposit Account Control Agreements and Securities Account Control Agreements.
8.15. Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral.

8.16.1 THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
8.16.2 Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each Grantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
8.16.3 Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 8.16.2. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
8.16.4 Each party to this Security Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Article IX of this Security Agreement, and each of the Grantors hereby appoints the Borrower as its agent for service of process. Nothing in this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Security Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
8.16.5 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GRANTOR (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER GRANTOR HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER GRANTOR WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER GRANTORS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
8.17. Indemnity. Each Grantor hereby agrees, jointly with the other Grantors and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, and their respective Related Parties (each such Person being called an Indemnitee), from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, and reasonable and documented costs and expenses of any kind and nature (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Administrative Agent or
21
any Secured Party is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, or their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, in any way relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition of any Collateral (including, without limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties or any Grantor, and any claim for patent, trademark or copyright infringement); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, or related costs and expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties or (y) a material breach in bad faith by such Indemnitee or its Related Parties of their express obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to a claim initiated by the Borrower.
8.18. Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Grantor agrees that any and all claims of such Grantor against any other Grantor (each an Obligor) with respect to any Intercompany Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Secured Obligations, provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Payment Event of Default or Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing, such Grantor may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course of business with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from each such Obligor to the extent not prohibited by the terms of this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Grantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Grantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent in those assets. No Grantor shall have any right to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until this Security Agreement has terminated in accordance with Section 8.14. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or, to the extent not permitted by any of the Loan Documents, if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an Insolvency Event), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Grantor (Intercompany Indebtedness) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application on any of the Secured Obligations, due or to become due, until such Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied or, in the case of Letters of Credit, cash collateralized pursuant to terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the applicable Grantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the termination of this Security Agreement in accordance with Section 8.14, such Grantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, for application to any of the Secured Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Grantor as the property of the Secured Parties. If any such Grantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Grantor agrees that until the termination of this Security Agreement in accordance with Section 8.14, no Grantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent or the Borrower or another Grantor) any claim any such Grantor has or may have against any Obligor.

8.19. Severability. Any provision in this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be severable.
8.20. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement.

PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
Reference is hereby made to the Pledge and Security Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Agreement), dated as of January 20, 2012, made by each of JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the Borrower) and the other Subsidiaries of the Borrower listed on the signature pages thereto (together with the Borrower, the Initial Grantors, and together with any additional Subsidiaries, including the undersigned, which become parties thereto by executing a Supplement in substantially the form hereof, the Grantors), in favor of the Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.
By its execution below, the undersigned, [NAME OF NEW GRANTOR], a [ ] [corporation/limited liability company/limited partnership] (the New Grantor) agrees to become, and does hereby become, a Grantor under the Agreement and agrees to be bound by the Agreement as if originally a party thereto. The New Grantor hereby collaterally assigns and pledges to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grants to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in all of the New Grantors right, title and interest in and to the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Secured Obligations; provided that, the security interest created hereunder shall not extend to, and the term Collateral shall not include, any Excluded Assets, provided further that, the amount of the Equity Interests in any First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary pledged or required to be pledged to the Administrative Agent by the New Grantor hereunder or under any other Collateral Document shall be automatically limited to the Voting Stock of a First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary that is also a Pledge Subsidiary representing not more than 65% of the total Voting Power of all outstanding Voting Stock of such First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary (and the term Collateral shall not include any other Equity Interests of such First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary) provided further that, the Equity Interests of a Domestic Subsidiary or any other Person will not be pledged or required to be pledged to the Administrative Agent by the New Grantor hereunder or under any other Collateral Document unless such Domestic Subsidiary or other Person is a Material Domestic Subsidiary (and the term Collateral shall not include the Equity Interests of any Person that is not a Material Domestic Subsidiary). For the avoidance of doubt, the grant of a security interest herein shall not be deemed to be an assignment of intellectual property rights owned by the New Grantor. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the New Grantor will not be required to (i) obtain bailee or landlord waivers in respect of any location where Inventory is stored or (ii) record with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (or any analogous domestic or foreign agency or office) any security interest in any Patent or Trademark.
By its execution below, the undersigned represents and warrants as to itself that all of the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof, except for representations and warranties that relate to a specific date in which case such representations and warranties are true and correct as of such specific date. The New Grantor represents and warrants that the supplements to the Exhibits to the Agreement attached hereto are true and correct in all respects and that such supplements set forth all information required to be scheduled under the Agreement with respect to the New Grantor. The New Grantor shall take all steps necessary and required under the Agreement to perfect, in favor of the Administrative Agent, a first-priority security interest in and lien against the New Grantors Collateral.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Grantor has executed and delivered this Security Agreement Supplement as of this day of , 20 .
