Pledge of Collateral Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all the Shares, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations. On the Effective Date, or, to the extent not certificated as of the Effective Date, within ten (10) days of the certification of any Shares, the certificate or certificates for the Shares will be delivered to Collateral Agent, accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly executed in blank by Borrower. To the extent required by the terms and conditions governing the Shares, Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Collateral Agent may effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral (including but not limited to the Shares) into the name of Collateral Agent and cause new (as applicable) certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Collateral Agent or its transferee. Borrower will execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as Collateral Agent may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection of Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Shares. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms. All such rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
The Collateral (a) The payment of the principal of and interest, and premium, if any, on the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an interest payment date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise and whether by the Issuer pursuant to the Notes or by any Secured Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee and the payment of all other First Lien Obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes are secured by First Liens on the Collateral, subject to Permitted Liens, as provided in the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes which the Issuer and the Guarantors have entered into simultaneously with the execution of this Indenture, or in certain circumstances, subsequent to the Issue Date or the Merger Date, and will be secured as provided in the Collateral Document relating to the Notes hereafter delivered as required or permitted by this Indenture. (b) Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance of the Notes and the Guarantees of the Notes, will be deemed to have consented and agreed to the terms of each Collateral Document relating to the Notes, as originally in effect and as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of this Indenture, to have authorized and directed the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to enter into the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes to which it is a party, and to have authorized and empowered the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and (through the Intercreditor Agreement) the Directing Agent to bind the Holders of Notes and other holders of First Lien Obligations as set forth in the Collateral Documents to which they are a party and to perform its respective obligations and exercise its respective rights and powers thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such consent or deemed consent shall be deemed or construed to represent an amendment or waiver, in whole or in part, of any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. The foregoing will not limit the right of the Issuer to amend, waive or otherwise modify the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes in accordance with their terms. (c) The Trustee and each Holder, by accepting the Notes and the Guarantees of the Notes, acknowledges that, as more fully set forth in the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes, the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of all the Holders, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, and that the Lien granted by the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes in respect of the Trustee and the Holders is subject to and qualified and limited in all respects by the Collateral Documents relating to the Notes and actions that may be taken thereunder. In the event of conflict between the Intercreditor Agreement, any of the other Collateral Documents and this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement shall control.
Location of the Collateral Except in the ordinary course of Grantor’s business, Grantor agrees to keep the Collateral (or to the extent the Collateral consists of intangible property such as accounts or general intangibles, the records concerning the Collateral) at Grantor’s address shown above or at such other locations as are acceptable to Lender. Upon Lender’s request, Grantor will deliver to Lender in form satisfactory to Lender a schedule of real properties and Collateral locations relating to Grantor’s operations, including without limitation the following: (1) all real property Grantor owns or is purchasing; (2) all real property Grantor is renting or leasing; (3) all storage facilities Grantor owns, rents, leases, or uses; and (4) all other properties where Collateral is or may be located.
Perfection of Security Interests in the Collateral The Collateral Documents create valid security interests in, and Liens on, the Collateral purported to be covered thereby, which security interests and Liens are currently perfected security interests and Liens, prior to all other Liens other than Permitted Liens.
Sell the Collateral Lender shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer, or otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in Lender’s own name or that of Grantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction or private sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will give Grantor, and other persons as required by law, reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private sale or any other disposition of the Collateral is to be made. However, no notice need be provided to any person who, after Event of Default occurs, enters into and authenticates an agreement waiving that person’s right to notification of sale. The requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. All expenses relating to the disposition of the Collateral, including without limitation the expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of the Indebtedness secured by this Agreement and shall be payable on demand, with interest at the Note rate from date of expenditure until repaid. Appoint Receiver. Lender shall have the right to have a receiver appointed to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to protect and preserve the Collateral, to operate the Collateral preceding foreclosure or sale, and to collect the Rents from the Collateral and apply the proceeds, over and above the cost of the receivership, against the Indebtedness. The receiver may serve without bond if permitted by law. Lender’s right to the appointment of a receiver shall exist whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the Indebtedness by a substantial amount. Employment by Lender shall not disqualify a person from serving as a receiver.
