(i)    use its best efforts to obtain an opinion of a nationally recognized law firm to the effect that, notwithstanding the Company’s being the debtor in such a bankruptcy case, the Collateral Agent will not be prohibited from releasing or Transferring the Collateral as provided in this Section 5.4 and shall deliver or cause to be delivered such opinion to the Collateral Agent within ten days after the occurrence of such Termination Event, and if (A) the Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall be unable to obtain such opinion within ten days after the occurrence of such Termination Event or (B) the Collateral Agent shall continue, after delivery of such opinion, to refuse to effectuate the release and Transfer of all Pledged Trust Preferred Securities, Pledged Treasury Securities and Proceeds of any of the foregoing, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 5.4, then the Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall within fifteen days after the occurrence of such Termination Event commence an action or proceeding in the court having jurisdiction of the Company’s case under the Bankruptcy Code seeking an order requiring the Collateral Agent to effectuate the release and transfer of all Pledged Trust Preferred Securities, Pledged Treasury Securities and Proceeds of any of the foregoing, or as the case may be, as provided by this Section 5.4; or

(ii)    commence an action or proceeding like that described in Section 5.4(b)(i) hereof within ten days after the occurrence of such Termination Event.

Section 5.5.            Reinvestment of Proceeds of Pledged Treasury Securities.

(a)    At or about 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on each Trade Date, the Collateral Agent shall select at least three Reference Dealers (including at least three Reference Dealers named on Schedule I hereto or named by any of the Regular Trustees as replacements therefor who are approved counterparties of The Bank of New York) and request each of them to provide a commitment (which may be oral if promptly confirmed in writing by facsimile or e-mail), satisfactory in form to the Collateral Agent, to the effect that if selected as the Final Dealer, such Reference Dealer shall sell to the Collateral Agent, for delivery against payment on the immediately succeeding Roll Date, an aggregate principal amount of the U.S. treasury security that is the Qualifying Treasury Security on such Roll Date equal to the aggregate principal amount of Qualifying Treasury Securities held in the Collateral Account on such Trade Date. If the Collateral Agent shall have received at least two firm offers, it shall select the lowest offer and the Reference Dealer providing the lowest offer shall be the “Final Dealer”; provided that if two or more Reference Dealers have provided identical lowest offers, the Collateral Agent shall select any of these Reference Dealers as the Final Dealer in its absolute discretion. The Final Dealer shall be obligated

15

to sell to the Collateral Agent, for Cash on the Roll Date, the aggregate principal amount of the U.S. treasury security specified in such offer. If the Collateral Agent determines that (i) a Market Disruption Event has occurred or (ii) fewer than two Reference Dealers have provided firm offers in a timely manner meeting the foregoing requirements, the steps contemplated above shall be taken on each succeeding Business Day on which the Collateral Agent determines that no Market Disruption Event has occurred until at least two Reference Dealers have provided such offers, except that the Collateral Agent shall request offers from the Reference Dealers for same day settlement. The Collateral Agent shall use reasonable care in administering the foregoing procedures and shall have no liability in connection therewith to the Issuer Trust, the Property Trustee, the Company or any other Person in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. All determinations regarding whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred shall be made by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion.

(b)    On each Roll Date (or, if no Final Dealer shall have been selected on the Trade Date, on the date that the Final Dealer is selected), the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities Intermediary to apply the Proceeds of the U.S. treasury securities held in the Collateral Account to the Purchase Price of the Qualifying Treasury Securities, which shall be deposited in the Collateral Account, and to apply the excess of such Proceeds over the Purchase Price of the Qualifying Treasury Securities to purchase Permitted Investments for deposit in the Collateral Account.

(c)    On each Quarterly Date, if the Qualifying Treasury Securities shall have been purchased and deposited in the Collateral Account, the Collateral Agent shall liquidate the Permitted Investments in the Collateral Account and promptly remit the Proceeds to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for payment to each Holder of Treasury MCAPS on a pro rata basis.

Section 5.6.            Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities.

(a)    Upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of (1) a notice from the Stock Purchase Contract Agent promptly following the receipt by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of a notice from a Holder of Normal MCAPS that such Holder has elected, in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, to effect a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities and (2) delivery by such Holder of Qualifying Treasury Securities having a principal amount equal to the Purchase Price under the related Stock Purchase Contracts by deposit in the Collateral Account on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day prior to the beginning of the Remarketing Period, then any securities or their proceeds received shall be paid or delivered, as the case may be, to the Company on the Stock Purchase Date in settlement of the Stock Purchase Contracts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.

(b)    If a Holder of Normal MCAPS (i) fails to notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to make a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities as provided in Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement or (ii) does notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent of its intention to made a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities but fails to make such delivery as required by Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, such Holder shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of such Holder’s Pledged Trust Preferred Securities in accordance with Section 6.2 of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.

(c)    As soon as practicable after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day immediately preceding the beginning of the Remarketing Period, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent a notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, stating the number of Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to be remarketed in the applicable Remarketing pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement.

16

(d)    If any Remarketing other than a Final Remarketing is not Successful, the Collateral Agent shall promptly return the Qualifying Treasury Securities or their proceeds, as the case may be, that it has received with respect to the Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to the Holders who elected to effect a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities.

(e)    In the event of a Successful Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall (i) instruct the Securities Intermediary to release from the Pledge such Holder’s related Pledged Trust Preferred Securities as to which such Holder has effected a Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities pursuant to Section 5.6(a) and (ii) instruct the Securities Intermediary to Transfer all such Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to such Holder free and clear of the Pledge created hereby.

Section 5.7.            Application of Proceeds in Settlement of Stock Purchase Contracts.

(a)    If a Holder of Normal MCAPS has not elected to make an effective Settlement with Qualifying Treasury Securities by notifying the Stock Purchase Contract Agent in the manner provided for in Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement or does notify the Stock Purchase Contract Agent as provided in Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement of its intention to deliver Qualifying Treasury Securities having a principal amount equal to the Purchase Price under the related Stock Purchase Contracts but fails to make such delivery as required by Section 6.2  of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, such Holder shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the Depositary Shares to be issued under such Stock Purchase Contracts from the Proceeds of the Remarketing of the related Pledged Trust Preferred Securities.

In the event of a Successful Remarketing, the Collateral Agent shall, upon written instruction of the Company, instruct the Securities Intermediary to Transfer the related Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to the Remarketing Agent, upon confirmation of deposit by the Remarketing Agent of the Proceeds of such Successful Remarketing (less, to the extent permitted by the Remarketing Agreement, the Remarketing Fee) in the Collateral Account. On the Stock Purchase Date, the Collateral Agent shall, in consultation with the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, instruct the Securities Intermediary to remit a portion of the Proceeds from such Successful Remarketing equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of such Pledged Trust Preferred Securities to satisfy in full such Holder’s obligations to pay the Purchase Price to purchase the Depositary Shares under the related Stock Purchase Contracts and to remit the balance of the Proceeds from the Successful Remarketing, if any, to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to such Holder.

In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Company, will, at the written instruction of the Company, deliver or dispose of the Pledged Trust Preferred Securities in accordance with the Company’s written instructions to satisfy in full, from any such disposition or retention, such Holders’ obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued under the Stock Purchase Contracts underlying such Normal MCAPS. Thereafter, the Collateral Agent shall promptly remit the Proceeds in excess of the aggregate Purchase Price for the Depositary Shares to be issued under such Stock Purchase Contracts to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the Holders of the Normal MCAPS to which such Trust Preferred Securities relate.

(b)    A Holder of a Treasury MCAPS shall be deemed to have elected to pay for the Depositary Shares to be issued under such Stock Purchase Contracts from the Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury Securities. Without receiving any instruction from any Holder, the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities Intermediary to remit the Proceeds of the related Pledged Treasury Securities to the Company in settlement of such Stock Purchase Contracts on the Stock Purchase Date. In the event the

17

sum of the Proceeds from the related Pledged Treasury Securities exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price of the Stock Purchase Contracts being settled thereby, the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Securities Intermediary to transfer such excess, when received, to the Stock Purchase Contract Agent for distribution to Holders of the Treasury MCAPS to which such Qualifying Treasury Securities relate.

(c)    On or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day immediately preceding any beginning of a Remarketing Period, but no earlier than the Payment Date immediately preceding such date, Holders of Separate Trust Preferred Securities may elect to have their Separate Trust Preferred Securities remarketed under the Remarketing Agreement, by delivering their Separate Trust Preferred Securities along with a notice of such election, substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto, to the Collateral Agent. Any such notice and delivery may not be conditioned upon the level at which the Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing or any other condition. The Collateral Agent shall hold Separate Trust Preferred Securities in an account separate from the Collateral Account in which the Pledged Securities shall be held. Holders of Separate Trust Preferred Securities electing to have their Separate Trust Preferred Securities remarketed will also have the right to withdraw that election by written notice to the Collateral Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto, on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day immediately preceding the beginning of any Remarketing Period, upon which notice the Collateral Agent shall return such Separate Trust Preferred Securities to such Holder. After such time, such election shall become an irrevocable election to have such Separate Trust Preferred Securities remarketed in such Remarketing.

Promptly after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the beginning of any Remarketing Period, the Collateral Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate liquidation amount of the Separate Trust Preferred Securities to be remarketed and deliver to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing all Separate Trust Preferred Securities delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 5.7(c) and not validly withdrawn prior to such date. In the event of a Successful Remarketing, after deducting the Remarketing Fee, the Remarketing Agent will remit to the Collateral Agent the remaining portion of the proceeds of such Remarketing for payment to the Holders of the remarketed Separate Trust Preferred Securities, in accordance with their respective interests. In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent will promptly return such Separate Trust Preferred Securities to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the appropriate Holders.

In the event of a Failed Remarketing, the Pledged Trust Preferred Securities shall remain credited to the Collateral Account and Section 5.7 shall apply.

Section 7.4.            Substitutions.

It is hereby agreed as follows:

Section 9.1.            Appointment, Powers and Immunities.

The Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall act as agent for the Company hereunder with such powers as are specifically vested in the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, by the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary shall:

(a)    have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and no implied covenants or obligations shall be inferred from this Agreement against the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary, nor shall the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary be bound by the provisions of any agreement by any party hereto beyond the specific terms hereof;

(b)    not be responsible for any recitals contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by it under, this Agreement, the MCAPS or the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as against the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be), the MCAPS, any Collateral or the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Company or any other Person (except the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be) to perform any of its obligations hereunder or hereunder or for the validity, perfection, enforceability, priority or, except as expressly required hereby, maintenance of any security interest created hereunder;

(c)    not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder (except pursuant to directions furnished under Section 9.2 hereof, subject to Section 9.8 hereof);

(d)    not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct; and

(e)    not be required to advise any party as to selling or retaining, or taking or refraining from taking any action with respect to, any securities or other property deposited hereunder.

Subject to the foregoing, during the term of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall take all reasonable action in connection with the safekeeping and preservation of the Collateral hereunder as determined by industry standards.

No provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder. In no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary be liable for any amount in excess of the Value of the Collateral.

Section 9.2.            Instructions of the Company.

The Company shall have the right, by one or more written instruments executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for the realization of any right or remedy in connection with a Failed Remarketing, or of exercising any power conferred on the Collateral Agent, or to direct the taking or refraining from taking of any action authorized by this

23

Agreement; provided, however, that (i) such direction shall not conflict with the provisions of any law or of this Agreement or involve the Collateral Agent in personal liability and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall be indemnified to its satisfaction as provided herein. Nothing contained in this Section 9.2 shall impair the right of the Collateral Agent in its discretion to take any action or omit to take any action which it deems proper and which is not inconsistent with such direction. None of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary has any obligation or responsibility to file UCC financing statements.

Section 9.3.            Reliance by Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

Each of the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled, in the absence of bad faith, to rely conclusively upon any certification, order, judgment, opinion, notice or other written communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by e-mail or similar electronic means, telecopy, telex or facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons (without being required to determine the correctness of any fact stated therein) and consult with and conclusively rely upon advice, opinions and statements of legal counsel and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Company in accordance with this Agreement. In the event any instructions are given (other than in writing at the time of the execution of the Agreement), whether in writing, by telecopier or otherwise, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary are authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on Schedule II hereto, and the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may rely upon the confirmations of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary.

It is understood that the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying number provided by the Company to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank. The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may apply any of the deposited funds for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even where its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary’s bank, or an intermediary bank, designated by the Company.

Section 9.4.            Certain Rights.

(a)    Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Agreement the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by one of the Company’s officers, and delivered to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary and such certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, shall be full warrant to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement upon the faith thereof.

(b)    The Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document.

24

Section 9.5.            Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

Any corporation into which the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 9.6.            Rights in Other Capacities.

The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary and their affiliates may (without having to account therefore to the Company) accept deposits from, lend money to, make their investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, any other Person interested herein and any Holder of MCAPS (and any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary and their affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Stock Purchase Contract Agent and any Holder of MCAPS without having to account for the same to the Company; provided that each of the Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Agent covenants and agrees with the Company that it shall not accept, receive or permit there to be created in favor of itself and shall take no affirmative action to permit there to be created in favor of any other Person, any security interest, lien or other encumbrance of any kind in or upon the Collateral other than the lien created by the Pledge.

Section 9.7.            Non-reliance on Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary.

None of the Securities Intermediary or the Collateral Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of MCAPS of this Agreement, the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement, the MCAPS or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of MCAPS. None of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall have any duty or responsibility to provide the Company with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent or any Holder of MCAPS (or any of their respective affiliates) that may come into the possession of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary or any of their respective affiliates.

Section 9.8.            Compensation and Indemnity.

25

“Loss”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Indemnitees or any of them for following any instructions or other directions upon which either the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary is entitled to rely pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided that the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary has not acted with gross negligence or engaged in willful misconduct or bad faith with respect to the specific Loss against which indemnifications sought; and

(c)    in addition to and not in limitation of paragraph (b) immediately above, indemnify and hold the Indemnitees and each of them harmless from and against any and all Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against, the Indemnitees or any of them in connection with or arising out of the Collateral Agent’s or the Securities Intermediary’s acceptance or performance of its powers and duties under this Agreement, provided that the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary has not acted with gross negligence or engaged in willful misconduct or bad faith with respect to the specific Loss against which indemnification is sought.

The provisions of this Section and Section 11.7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.9.            Failure to Act.

In the event of any ambiguity in the provisions of this Agreement or any dispute between or conflicting claims by or among the parties hereto or any other Person with respect to any funds or property deposited hereunder, then at its sole option, each of the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled, after prompt notice to the Company and the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such property or funds so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall not be or become liable in any way to any of the parties hereto for its failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to refuse to act until either:

(a)    such conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary; or

(b)    the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to save it harmless from and against any and all loss, liability or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which it may incur by reason of its acting.

The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may in addition elect to commence an interpleaded action or seek other judicial relief or orders as the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary may deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, none of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary shall be required to take any action that is in its opinion contrary to law or to the terms of this Agreement, or which would in its opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to liability.

(ii)    the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may be removed at any time by the Company; and

(iii)    if the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary fails to perform any of its material obligations hereunder in any material respect for a period of not less than 20 days after receiving written notice of such failure by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent and such failure shall be continuing, the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary may be removed by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, acting at the direction of the Holders of MCAPS.

provided that any Person at any time acting as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary may not resign or be removed in any one of those capacities without the consent of each party to this Collateral Agreement unless it resigns or is removed in all such capacities in which it is then acting.

The Stock Purchase Contract Agent shall promptly notify the Company of any removal of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 9.10. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Company shall have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case maybe, which shall not be an Affiliate of the Stock Purchase Contract Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s giving of notice of resignation or the Company’s or the Stock Purchase Contract Agent’s giving notice of such removal, then the retiring or removed Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary may petition any court of competent jurisdiction, at the expense of the Company, for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary. The Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary shall each be a bank or a national banking association which has an office (or an agency office) in New York City with a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, such successor Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, and the retiring Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be, shall take all appropriate action, subject to payment of any amounts then due and payable to it hereunder, to transfer any money and property held by it hereunder (including the Collateral) to such successor. The retiring Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary shall, upon such succession, be discharged from its duties and obligations as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s or Securities Intermediary’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary. Any resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary hereunder, at a time when such Person is acting as the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as the simultaneous resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, as the case may be.

Section 9.11.          Right to Appoint Agent or Advisor.

The Collateral Agent shall have the right to appoint agents or advisors in connection with any of its duties hereunder, and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by, or in reliance upon the advice of, such agents or advisors selected in good faith. The appointment of agents

27

pursuant to this Section 9.11 shall be subject to prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 9.12.          Survival.

The provisions of this Article IX shall survive termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary.

Section 9.13.          Exculpation.

Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary or their officers, directors, employees or agents be liable under this Agreement to any third party for indirect, special, punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, whether or not the likelihood of such loss or damage was known to the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary, or any of them incurred without any act or deed that is found to be attributable to gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary.
