Each Loan Party has irrevocably and unconditionally delivered this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the failure by any other Person to sign this Agreement or a security agreement similar to this Agreement or otherwise shall not discharge the obligations of any Loan Party hereunder.

(b) Deposits to Cash Proceeds Account. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.05 or 2.06 hereof, each Loan Party shall instruct all Account Debtors and other Persons obligated in respect of its Receivables and other Collateral to make all payments in respect of its Receivables and other Collateral either (i) directly to the Collateral Agent (by instructing that such payments be remitted by direct wire transfer to the Collateral Agent at its address referred to in Section 7.01 hereof or to a post office box which shall be in the name and under the control of the Collateral Agent) or (ii) to one or more other banks in the United States (by instructing that such payments be remitted by direct wire transfer to, or to a post office box which shall be in the name and under the control of, such bank) under an Account Control Agreement duly executed by each relevant Loan Party and such bank or under other arrangements, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which each relevant Loan Party shall have irrevocably instructed such other bank (and such other bank shall have agreed) to remit all proceeds of such payments directly to the Collateral Agent for deposit into the Cash Proceeds Account or as the Collateral Agent may otherwise instruct such bank. All such payments made to the Collateral Agent shall be deposited in the Cash Proceeds Account. In addition to the foregoing, each Loan Party agrees that if the Proceeds of any Collateral hereunder (including the payments made in respect of Receivables) shall be received by it after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Loan Party shall as promptly as possible deposit such Proceeds into the Cash Proceeds Account. Until so deposited, all such Proceeds shall be held in trust by the relevant Loan Party for and as the property of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of any Loan Party. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Collateral Agent, its officers, employees and authorized agents to endorse and sign its name on all checks, drafts, money orders or other media of payment so delivered, and such endorsements or assignments shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have been made by the relevant Loan Party prior to any endorsement or assignment thereof by the Collateral Agent.

If the Reinvestment Funds Account is not maintained at an office of the Collateral Agent, then forthwith upon the establishment of such account, the applicable Loan Party shall notify the Collateral Agent of the location, account name and account number of such account and shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an Account Control Agreement with respect to such Reinvestment Funds Account duly executed by such Loan Party and the Securities Intermediary maintaining such Reinvestment Funds Account. Each Loan Party hereby agrees to cause any Reinvestment Funds received from time to time after the establishment of the Reinvestment Funds Account to be deposited therein as set forth in this paragraph. Any Insurance Proceeds exceeding $2,000,000 in respect of one or a series of related events or conditions giving rise thereto received from time to time by the Collateral Agent in respect of which the Collateral Agent is an insured party and loss payee shall be promptly deposited in the Reinvestment Funds Account as set forth in this paragraph. Any income received with respect to the balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Reinvestment Funds Account, including any interest or capital gains on Liquid Investments, shall remain, or be deposited, in the Reinvestment Funds Account. All right, title and interest in and to the cash amounts on deposit from time to time in the Reinvestment Funds Account together with any Liquid Investments from time to time made pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof and any other property or assets from time to time deposited in or credited to the Reinvestment Funds Account shall vest in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Finance Obligations, shall constitute part of the Collateral hereunder and shall not constitute payment of the Finance Obligations until applied thereto as hereinafter provided. The Collateral Agent shall apply to repayment of the Loans and, if necessary, to cash collateralization of L/C Obligations those amounts on deposit in the Reinvestment Funds Account which are required to be applied to the repayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(i) of the Credit Agreement and the definition of “Reinvestment Funds” or any other applicable term of any Loan Document, and, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall promptly in accordance with subsection (b) below release to, or upon the order of the Loan Party in respect of which such Reinvestment Funds were delivered, those amounts on deposit in the Reinvestment Funds Account which are not required to be so applied or retained in the Reinvestment Funds Account pursuant to any other provision of any Loan Document for application as provided in subsection (b) below.

(b) Withdrawals from Reinvestment Funds Account. The balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Reinvestment Funds Account (to the extent not applied pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.05(a) hereof) shall be subject to withdrawal only upon the instructions of the Collateral Agent. Except upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent agrees to give instructions to distribute such amounts to the applicable Loan Party at such times and in such amounts as such Loan Party shall request for the purpose of repairing, reconstructing or replacing the property in respect of which such Reinvestment Funds were received or for the purpose of repaying indebtedness secured by a Permitted Lien on, or meeting other liabilities in respect of, the property in respect of which such Reinvestment Funds were received or for any other purpose permitted with respect to such Reinvestment Funds under the Credit Agreement. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to such distribution. To the extent required by any Loan Document, any such request shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief executive officer or chief financial officer of such Loan Party setting forth in detail reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent the purpose for which such funds will be expended. If immediately available cash on deposit in the

- 14 -

Reinvestment Funds Account is not sufficient to make any distribution to a Loan Party referred to in the previous sentence of this Section 2.05(b), the Collateral Agent shall cause to be liquidated as promptly as practicable such Liquid Investments in the Reinvestment Funds Account designated by such Loan Party and the Borrower as are required to obtain sufficient cash to make such distribution and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, such distribution shall not be made until such liquidation has taken place. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may apply or cause to be applied (subject to collection) any or all of the balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Reinvestment Funds Account in the manner specified in Section 5.04 hereof.

Section 2.06 Cash Collateral Account. All amounts required to be deposited by any Loan Party as cash collateral for L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 2.03(g) or Section 8.02(iii) of the Credit Agreement, any similar provision of any other Loan Document or pursuant to Section 5.04 shall be deposited in a Securities Account (the “Cash Collateral Account”) established and maintained by such Loan Party at the offices of the Collateral Agent or such other bank or other financial institution as such Loan Party and the Collateral Agent may agree, in the name and under the exclusive control of the Collateral Agent. If the Cash Collateral Account is not maintained at an office of the Collateral Agent, then forthwith upon the establishment of such account, the applicable Loan Party shall notify the Collateral Agent of the location, account name and account number of such account and shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an Account Control Agreement with respect to such Cash Collateral Account duly executed by such Loan Party and the Securities Intermediary maintaining such Cash Collateral Account. Any income received with respect to the balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Cash Collateral Account, including any interest or capital gains on Liquid Investments, shall remain, or be deposited, in the Cash Collateral Account. All right, title and interest in and to the cash amounts on deposit from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account together with any Liquid Investments from time to time made pursuant to Section 2.08 and any other property or assets from time to time deposited in or credited to the Cash Collateral Account shall vest in and be under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall constitute part of the Collateral hereunder and shall not constitute payment of the Finance Obligations until applied thereto as hereinafter provided. If and when any portion of the L/C Obligations on which any deposit in the Cash Collateral Account was based (the “Relevant Contingent Exposure”) shall become fixed (a “Direct Exposure”) as a result of the payment by the L/C Issuer Lender with respect thereto of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Direct Exposure (but not more than the amount in the Cash Collateral Account at the time) shall be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent from the Cash Collateral Account and shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for application pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and the Relevant Contingent Exposure shall thereupon be reduced by such amount. If at any time the amount in the Cash Collateral Account exceeds the Relevant Contingent Exposure, the excess amount shall, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent and paid to the applicable Loan Party or its order. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to each such distribution. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the excess of the funds in the Cash Collateral Account over the Relevant Contingent Exposure shall be retained in the Cash Collateral Account and, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, may be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent and applied in the manner specified in Section 5.04. If immediately available cash on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account is not sufficient to make any distribution to a Loan Party referred to in this Section 2.06, the Collateral Agent shall cause to be liquidated as promptly as practicable such Liquid Investments in the Cash Collateral Account designated by such Loan Party as are required to obtain sufficient cash to make such distribution and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.06, such distribution shall not be made until such liquidation has taken place.

be deposited in a Securities Account (the “Prepayment Account”) established and maintained by the Borrower at the offices of the Collateral Agent or such other bank or other financial institution as the Borrower and the Collateral Agent may agree, in the name and under the exclusive control of the Collateral Agent. If the Prepayment Account is not maintained at an office of the Collateral Agent, then forthwith upon the establishment of such account, the Loan Party so required to make such deposit shall notify the Collateral Agent of the location, account name and account number of such account and shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an Account Control Agreement with respect to such Prepayment Account duly executed by the Borrower and the Securities Intermediary maintaining such Prepayment Account. Any income received with respect to the balance from time to time standing to the credit of the Prepayment Account, including any interest or capital gains on Liquid Investments, shall remain, or be deposited, in the Prepayment Account. All right, title and interest in and to the cash amounts on deposit from time to time in the Prepayment Account, together with any Liquid Investments from time to time deposited in or credited to the Prepayment Account, shall vest in and be under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the holders from time to time of the Finance Obligations, shall constitute part of the Collateral hereunder and shall not constitute payment of the Finance Obligations until applied thereto as hereinafter provided. The Collateral Agent shall from time to time pay to the Administrative Agent for application to repayment of the Loans of the respective Class as required by Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement those amounts on deposit in the Prepayment Account which are required to be applied to the repayment of the Loans of such Class in accordance with Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement. If immediately available cash on deposit in the Prepayment Account is not sufficient to make any distribution referred to in this Section 2.07, the Collateral Agent shall cause to be liquidated as promptly as practicable such Liquid Investments in the Prepayment Account designated by the Borrower as are required to obtain sufficient cash to make such distribution and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.07, such distribution shall not be made until such liquidation has taken place.

Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Accounts shall be invested and re-invested from time to time in such Liquid Investments as the Borrower shall determine, which Liquid Investments shall be held in the name and be under the control of the Collateral Agent; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may liquidate any such Liquid Investments and apply or cause to be applied the proceeds thereof in the manner specified in Section 5.04. For this purpose, “Liquid Investments” means Cash Equivalents or Foreign Cash Equivalents maturing within 90 days after such Cash Equivalent or Foreign Cash Equivalent is acquired by the Collateral Agent.

- 18 -

Section 4.03 Further Actions. Such Loan Party will, from time to time at its expense and in such manner and form as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, execute, deliver, file and record or authorize the recording of any financing statement, specific assignment, instrument, document, agreement or other paper and take any other action (including, without limitation, any filings of financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code and any filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office) that from time to time may be necessary or advisable under the UCC or with respect to Recordable Intellectual Property, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to create, preserve, perfect, confirm or validate the Security Interests or to enable the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties to obtain the full benefit of this Agreement or to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies created hereunder or under applicable Law with respect to any of the Collateral. Such Loan Party shall maintain the Security Interest as a first priority Lien, subject only to Permitted Liens, and shall defend such security interests as first priority Liens, subject only to Permitted Liens, and such priority against the claims and demands of all Persons to the extent adverse to such Loan Party’s ownership rights or otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

The Loan Parties shall pay the costs of, or incidental to, any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements or other assignment documents concerning the Collateral.

Such Loan Party agrees that if any warehouse receipt or receipt in the nature of a warehouse receipt is issued with respect to any of its Inventory, such warehouse receipt or receipt in the nature thereof shall not be “negotiable” (as such term is used in Section 7-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction or under other relevant Law).

(vii) to do, at its option, but at the expense of such Loan Party, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect or preserve the Collateral and to realize upon the Collateral.

Section 5.02 Remedies upon Event of Default.

(a) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Finance Obligations (including, without limitation, the right to give instructions or a notice of sole control under an Account Control Agreement): (i) exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) and, in addition, (ii) without demand of performance or other demand or notice of any kind (except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of Law) to or upon any Loan Party or any other Person (all of which demands and/or notices are hereby waived by each Loan Party), (A) withdraw all cash and Liquid Investments in the Collateral Accounts and apply such cash and Liquid Investments and other cash, if any, then held by it as Collateral as specified in Section 5.04 hereof, (B) give notice and take sole possession and control of all amounts on deposit in or credited to any Deposit Account or Securities Account pursuant to the related Account Control Agreement and apply all such funds as specified in Section 5.04 hereof and (C) if there shall be no such cash, Liquid Investments or other amounts or if such cash, Liquid Investments and other amounts shall be insufficient to pay all the Finance Obligations in full or cannot be so applied for any reason or if the Collateral Agent determines to do so, collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral and/or sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so) or any part thereof at public or private sale, at any office of the Collateral Agent or elsewhere in such manner as is commercially reasonable and as the Collateral Agent may deem best, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk and at such price or prices as the Collateral Agent may deem satisfactory.

(b) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall give each Loan Party not less than 10 days’ prior notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of any of the Collateral, except any Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Any such notice shall (i) in the case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (ii) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated, (iii) contain the information specified in Section 9-613 of the UCC, (iv) be authenticated and (v) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to Section 9-611(c) of the UCC; provided

- 24 -

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. The Collateral Agent and each Loan Party agree that such notice constitutes reasonable notification within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Loan Party hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, notice and judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or disposition of any of the Collateral.

(c) The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any private sale). Each Loan Party will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with Law. Upon any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned without further notice. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in the case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.

(d) For the purpose of enforcing any and all rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent may, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) require each Loan Party to, and each Loan Party agrees that it will, at its expense and upon the request of the Collateral Agent, forthwith assemble, store and keep all or any part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available at a place designated by the Collateral Agent which is, in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, reasonably convenient to the Collateral Agent and such Loan Party, whether at the premises of such Loan Party or otherwise, it being understood that such Loan Party’s obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by such Loan Party of such obligation; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, enter, with or without process of law and without breach of the peace, any premise where any of the Collateral is or may be located, and without charge or liability to any Loan Party, seize and remove such Collateral from such premises; (iii) have access to and use such Loan Party’s books and records relating to the Collateral; and (iv) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store or transfer it without charge in or by means of any storage or transportation facility owned or leased by such Loan Party, process, repair or recondition it or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent the Collateral Agent deems appropriate and, in connection with such preparation and disposition, use without charge any Intellectual Property or technical process used by such Loan Party. The Collateral Agent may also render any or all of the Collateral unusable at any Loan Party’s premises and may dispose of such Collateral on such premises without liability for rent or costs.

- 25 -

(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing:

(i) the Collateral Agent may, subject to the express terms of any valid and enforceable restriction in favor of a Person who is not a Group Company that prohibits, or requires any consent or establishes any other conditions for, an assignment thereof, license, or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights included in the Collateral throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine;

(ii) the Collateral Agent may (without assuming any obligations or liability thereunder), at any time and from time to time, enforce (and shall have the exclusive right to enforce) against any Licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of any Loan Party in, to and under any License and take or refrain from taking any action under any provision thereof, and each Loan Party hereby releases the Collateral Agent and each of the Secured Parties from, and agrees to hold the Collateral Agent and each of the Secured Parties free and harmless from and against any claims arising out of, any lawful action so taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto;

(iii) upon request by the Collateral Agent, each Loan Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor or sublicensor of each License to effect the assignment of all of such Loan Party’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Collateral Agent or its designee and will execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a power of attorney, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, for the implementation of any lease, assignment, License, sublicense, grant of option, sale or other disposition of a Patent, Trademark or Copyright; and

(iv) the Collateral Agent may direct each Loan Party to refrain, in which event each such Loan Party shall refrain, from using or practicing any Trademark, Patent or Copyright in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, and shall, if requested by the Collateral Agent, change such Loan Party’s name to eliminate therefrom any use of any Trademark and will execute such other and further documents as the Collateral Agent may request to further confirm this change and transfer ownership of the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights and registrations and any pending applications therefor to the Collateral Agent.

(f) In the event of any disposition following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright pursuant to this Article V, each Loan Party shall supply its know-how and expertise relating to the manufacture and sale of the products or services bearing Trademarks or the products, services or works made or rendered in connection with or under Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights, and its customer lists and other records relating to such Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights and to the distribution of said products, services or works, to the Collateral Agent.

(g) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent, instead of exercising the power of sale conferred upon it pursuant to this Section 5.02, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the Security Interests and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction, and may in addition institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Agreement.

(h) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, without notice to any Loan Party or any party claiming through any Loan Party, without regard to the solvency or insolvency at such time of any Person then liable for the payment of any of the Finance Obligations, without regard to the then

- 26 -

value of the Collateral and without requiring any bond from any complainant in such proceedings, be entitled as a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver or receivers (who may be the Collateral Agent) of the Collateral or any part thereof, and of the profits, revenues and other income thereof, pending such proceedings, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, and to the entry of an order directing that the profits, revenues and other income of the property constituting the whole or any part of the Collateral be segregated, sequestered and impounded for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, and each Loan Party irrevocably consents to the appointment of such receiver or receivers and to the entry of such order.

(i) Each Loan Party agrees, to the extent it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium, turnover or redemption Law, or any Law permitting it to direct the order in which the Collateral shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in force which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this Agreement, and each Loan Party hereby waives all benefit or advantage of all such Laws. Each Loan Party covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in any Finance Document.

(j) Each Loan Party, to the extent it may lawfully do so, on behalf of itself and all who claim through or under it, including, without limitation, any and all subsequent creditors, vendees, assignees and lienors, waives and releases all rights to demand or to have any marshalling of the Collateral upon any sale, whether made under any power of sale granted herein or pursuant to judicial proceedings or under any foreclosure or any enforcement of this Agreement, and consents and agrees that all of the Collateral may at any such sale be offered and sold as an entirety.

(k) Each Loan Party waives, to the extent permitted by Law, presentment, demand, protest and any notice of any kind (except the notices expressly required hereunder or in the other Finance Documents) in connection with this Agreement and any action taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral.

Section 5.03 Limitation on Duty of Collateral Agent in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, neither the Collateral Agent nor the Secured Parties shall have any duty to exercise any rights or take any steps to preserve the rights of any Loan Party in the Collateral in its or their possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be liable to any Loan Party or any other Person for failure to meet any obligation imposed by Section 9-207 of the UCC or any successor provision. Each Loan Party agrees that the Collateral Agent shall at no time be required to, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable to any Loan Party for any failure to, account separately to any Loan Party for amounts received or applied by the Collateral Agent from time to time in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property, and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

Section 5.04 Application of Proceeds.

(a) Priority of Distributions. The proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral and any cash held in the Collateral Accounts shall be applied as provided in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may make distributions hereunder in cash or in kind or, on a ratable basis, in any combination thereof.

(b) Distributions with Respect to Letters of Credit. Each of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties agrees and acknowledges that if (after all outstanding Loans and L/C Disbursements have been paid in full) the Lenders are to receive a distribution on account of undrawn amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued (or deemed issued) under the Credit Agreement, such amounts shall be deposited in the Cash Collateral Account as cash security for the repayment of Senior Credit Obligations owing to the Lenders as such. Upon termination of all outstanding Letters of Credit, all of such cash security shall be applied to the remaining Senior Credit Obligations of the Lenders as such. If there remains any excess cash security, such excess cash shall be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent from the Cash Collateral Account and distributed in accordance with Section 5.04(a) hereof.

(c) Reliance by Collateral Agent. For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 5.04, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) each authorized representative (the “Representative”) for one or more Hedge Banks and/or Cash Management Banks for a determination (which the Administrative Agent, each Representative and the Secured Parties agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Finance Obligations owed to the Secured Parties, and shall have no liability to any Loan Party or any other Secured Party for actions taken in reliance on such information except in the case of its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Hedge Bank or a Cash Management Bank) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secured Hedge Agreements or Secured Cash Management Agreements are in existence. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section shall be presumptively correct (except in the event of manifest error), and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the Secured Parties of any amounts distributed to them.

(d) Deficiencies. It is understood that the Loan Parties shall remain liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the amount of the Finance Obligations.

Section 5.05 Assigned Agreements. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Collateral Agent, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to assert, either directly or on behalf of such Loan Party, any claims such Loan Party may have from time to time against any other party to any Assigned Agreement or to otherwise exercise any right or remedy of such Loan Party under any Assigned Agreement (including without limitation, the right to enforce directly against any party to an Assigned Agreement all of such Loan Party’s rights thereunder, to make all demands and give all notices and make all requests required or permitted to be made by such Loan Party under any Assigned Agreements) as the Collateral Agent may deem proper. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Loan Party’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to assert and collect such claims and to exercise such rights and remedies.

COLLATERAL AGENT

Section 6.01 Concerning the Collateral Agent. The provisions of Article IX of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent in respect of this Agreement and shall be binding upon all Loan Parties and all Secured Parties and upon the parties hereto in such respect. In furtherance and not in derogation of the rights, privileges and immunities of the Collateral Agent therein set forth:

(i) The Collateral Agent is authorized to take all such actions as are provided to be taken by it as Collateral Agent hereunder and all other action reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for herein (including, without limitation, the timing and methods of realization upon the Collateral), the Collateral Agent shall act or refrain from acting in accordance with written instructions from the Required Lenders or, in the absence of such instructions or provisions, in accordance with its discretion.

(ii) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Security Interests in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder unless such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement by any Loan Party.

Section 6.02 Appointment of Co-Collateral Agent. At any time or times, in order to comply with any legal requirement in any Designated Foreign Jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent may in consultation with the Borrower and, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint another bank or trust company or one or more other persons, either to act as co-agent or co-agents, jointly with the Collateral Agent, or to act as separate agent or agents on behalf of the Secured Parties with such power and authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and may be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, include provisions for the protection of such co-agent or separate agent similar to the provisions of Section 6.01 hereof). Notwithstanding any such appointment but only to the extent not inconsistent with such legal requirements or, in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent, not unduly burdensome to it or any such co-agent, each Loan Party shall, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be entitled to deal solely and directly with the Collateral Agent rather than any such co-agent in connection with the Collateral Agent’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission) and mailed, faxed or delivered, to the address, facsimile number or (subject to subsection (b) below) electronic mail address specified for notices: (i) in the case of any Guarantor, as set forth on the signature pages hereto; (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as specified in or pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement; (iii) in the case of the Collateral Agent, as specified in or pursuant to this Section 7.01; (iv) in the case of any Hedge Bank as set forth in any applicable Secured Hedge Agreement; (v) in the case of any Cash Management Bank, as set forth in any applicable Secured Cash Management Agreement or (vi) in the case of any party, at

- 29 -

such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Collateral Agent and each other party hereto. All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of: (i) actual receipt by the intended recipient and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by the intended recipient; (B) if delivered by mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile transmission, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below), when delivered. Rejection or refusal to accept, or the inability to deliver because of a changed address of which no notice was given, shall not affect the validity of notice given in accordance with this Section.

(b) Except as expressly provided herein or as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, to distribute executed Loan Documents in Adobe PDF format and may not be used for any other purpose.

Section 7.02 No Waivers; Non-Exclusive Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other Finance Document or any other document or agreement contemplated hereby or thereby and no course of dealing between the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party and any of the Loan Parties shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Finance Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein and in the other Finance Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by Law. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall impair the right of any Secured Party to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of any Loan Party other than its indebtedness under the Finance Documents. Each Loan Party agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any holder of a participation in a Finance Obligation, whether or not acquired pursuant to the terms of any applicable Finance Document, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim or other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 7.03 Compensation and Expenses of the Collateral Agent; Indemnification.

(a) Expenses. The Loan Parties, jointly and severally, agree (i) to pay or reimburse the Collateral Agent for all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including all fees, disbursements and other charges of Fried, Frank, Harris, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, counsel for the Collateral Agent, (ii) to pay or reimburse the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties for all taxes which the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be required to pay by reason of the security interests granted in the Collateral (including any applicable transfer taxes) or to free any of the Collateral from the lien thereof and (iii) to pay or reimburse each Agent, any Representative of one or more Hedge Banks or one or more Cash Management Banks and each other Secured Party for all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement or preservation of any rights and remedies under this Agreement (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any

- 30 -

“workout” or restructuring in respect of the Finance Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated charges of internal counsel); provided that the Loan Parties shall not be required to reimburse the legal fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel (in addition to any special counsel and up to one local counsel in each applicable local jurisdiction) for all Persons indemnified under this clause (iii) unless, in the written opinion of outside counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent, representation of all such indemnified persons would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent and the costs of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by or on behalf of the Agents and the Secured Parties. The agreements in this Section 7.03(a) shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all Finance Obligations.

(b) Protection of Collateral. If any Loan Party fails to comply with the provisions of any Finance Document, such that the value of any Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Security Interest is thereby diminished or potentially diminished or put at risk, the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be required to, effect such compliance on behalf of such Loan Party, and the Loan Parties shall reimburse the Collateral Agent for the costs thereof within 30 days of receipt of a reasonably detailed written invoice therefor. All insurance expenses and all expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, appraising, handling, maintaining and shipping the Collateral, any and all excise, property, sales and use taxes imposed by any state, federal or local authority on any of the Collateral, or in respect of periodic appraisals and inspections of the Collateral, or in respect of the sale or other disposition thereof shall be borne and paid by the Loan Parties. If any Loan Party fails to promptly pay any portion thereof when due, the Collateral Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, pay the same and charge the Loan Parties’ account therefor, and the Loan Parties agree to reimburse the Collateral Agent therefor on demand. All sums so paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent for any of the foregoing and any and all other sums for which any Loan Party may become liable hereunder and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, legal expenses and court costs) reasonably incurred by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party in enforcing or protecting the Security Interests or any of their rights or remedies under this Agreement, shall, together with interest thereon until paid at the rate applicable to interest at the highest rate applicable under the Loan Documents in respect of overdue obligations, be additional Finance Obligations hereunder.

(c) Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents are consummated, each Loan Party, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against: (i) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that may at any time (including at any time following the Discharge of Finance Obligations and the resignation or removal of any Agent or Representative or the replacement of any Lender) be asserted or imposed against any Indemnitee, arising out of or in any way relating to or arising out of the manufacture, ownership, ordering, purchasing, delivery, control, acceptance, lease, financing, possession, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition or use of the Collateral (including, without limitation, latent or other defects, whether or not discoverable), the violation of the Laws of any country, state or other Governmental Authority, or any tort (including, without limitation, any claims, arising or imposed under the doctrine of strict liability, or for or on account of injury to or the death of any Person (including any Indemnitee), or property damage) or contract claim; (ii) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in clause (i) above; and (iii) any and all liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action or cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action or cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, and whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action or cause of action, or

- 31 -

proceeding; provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any claim to the extent such claim is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have been caused by its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and provided further that the Loan Parties shall not be required to reimburse the legal fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel (in addition to any special counsel and up to one local counsel in each applicable local jurisdiction) for all Indemnitees unless, in the written opinion of outside counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Parties and the Collateral Agent, representation of all such Indemnitees would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 7.03(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person or any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Finance Documents, the agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties contained in this Section 7.03(b) shall survive the repayment of the Loans, L/C Obligations and other obligations under the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments. Any amounts paid by any Indemnitee as to which such Indemnitee has a right to reimbursement hereunder shall constitute Finance Obligations.

(d) Contribution. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Loan Party under this Section 7.03 are unenforceable for any reason, each Loan Party hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable Law.

Section 7.04 Enforcement. The Secured Parties agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent (acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders if required under the Loan Documents) and that no other Secured Party shall have any right individually to seek to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 7.05 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, changed, discharged, terminated or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by each Loan Party directly affected by such amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver (it being understood that the addition or release of any Loan Party hereunder shall not constitute an amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver affecting any Loan Party other than the Loan Party so added or released and it being further understood and agreed that any supplement to Schedule 1.01 hereto delivered pursuant to Section 4.16 hereof shall not require the consent of any Loan Party) and the Collateral Agent (with the consent of the Required Lenders or, to the extent required by Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, all of the Lenders); provided, however, that any amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver adversely affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class of Secured Parties (and not all Secured Parties in a like or similar manner) shall require the written consent of the Required Secured Parties of such Class of Secured Parties. For the purposes of this Section 7.05, the term “Class” means each class of Secured Parties, i.e., whether (x) the Lenders, as holders of the Senior Credit Obligations, (y) the Hedge Banks, as holders of the obligations under the Secured Hedge Agreements or (z) the Cash Management Banks, as holders of the obligations under the Secured Cash Management Agreements. For the purposes of this Section 7.05, the term “Required Secured Parties” of any Class means each of (x) with respect to the Senior Credit Obligations, the Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement), (y) with respect to the obligations under all Secured Hedge Agreements, the holders of 51% of such obligations outstanding from time to time and (z) with respect to the obligations under all Secured Cash Management Agreements, the holders of 51% of such obligations outstanding from time to time.

- 32 -

Section 7.06 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto and inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns. In the event of an assignment of all or any of the Finance Obligations, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness. No Loan Party shall assign or delegate any of its rights and duties hereunder except as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Section 7.07 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT REMEDIES PROVIDED BY THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTIONS OTHER THAN NEW YORK ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTIONS.

Section 7.08 Limitation of Law; Severability.

(i) All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of Law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of Law which may be controlling and be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable Law.

(ii) If any provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, (i) 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 the Secured Parties in order to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible, and (ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other jurisdiction.

Section 7.09 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective with respect to each Loan Party when the Collateral Agent shall receive counterparts hereof executed by itself and such Loan Party.

Section 7.10 Additional Loan Parties. It is understood and agreed that any Affiliate of the Borrower that is required by any Finance Document to execute a counterpart of this Agreement after the date hereof shall automatically become a Loan Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Loan Party hereunder by executing an instrument of accession or joinder satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent and delivering the same to the Collateral Agent. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such instrument, such Affiliate shall take all such actions and deliver to the Collateral Agent all such documents and agreements as such Affiliate would have been required to deliver to the Collateral Agent on or prior to the date of this Agreement had such Affiliate been a party hereto on the date of this Agreement. Such additional materials shall

- 33 -

include, among other things, supplements to Schedules 1.01, 3.06 and 4.01 hereto (which Schedules shall thereupon automatically be amended and supplemented to include all information contained in such supplements) such that, after giving effect to the joinder of such Affiliate, each of Schedules 1.01, 3.06 and 4.01 hereto is true, complete and correct with respect to such Affiliate as of the effective date of such joinder. The execution and delivery of any such instrument of accession or joinder, and the amendment and supplementation of the Schedules hereto as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Agreement.

Section 7.11 Termination. Upon the full, final and irrevocable payment and performance of all Finance Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding L/C Obligations, Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements and the termination of all Commitments under the Finance Documents, the Security Interests shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to such termination of the Security Interests, the Collateral Agent may release any of the Collateral with the prior written consent of any other Secured Party; provided that the release of the Collateral be in accordance with Section 9.10 of the Credit Agreement. Upon any such termination of the Security Interests or release of Collateral, the Collateral Agent will, upon request by and at the expense of any Loan Party, execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of the Security Interests or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be. Any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any Secured Party as a result of any release of Collateral by it as permitted by this Section 7.11. Upon any release of Collateral pursuant to this Section 7.11, none of the Secured Parties shall have any continuing right or interest in such Collateral or the Proceeds thereof.

Section 7.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, in the case of the Hedge Banks and the Cash Management Banks, the Secured Hedge Agreements and the Secured Cash management Agreements, respectively, constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, and any contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.
