(a) The Credit Agreement Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral that is part of the Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the New York UCC) and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable Security Documents, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Section. Pending delivery to the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent, the Term Loan Agreement Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral from time to time in its possession as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable Security Documents, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Section.
- 12 -
(b) Each Authorized Representative shall have no obligation whatsoever to the other Secured Parties to ensure that any Shared Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section. The duties or responsibilities of each Authorized Representative under this Section shall be limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Secured Parties therein.
(c) If the Credit Agreement Obligations are Refinanced, upon the Discharge of the Credit Agreement Obligations, the existing Credit Agreement Collateral Agent shall transfer all Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral to the Successor Authorized Representative upon its execution and delivery of an Authorized Representative Joinder Agreement pursuant to which it has agreed to undertake the obligations of the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Pending delivery of such Possessory Collateral to the Successor Authorized Representative, the existing Credit Agreement Collateral Agent agrees to continue to hold all such Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each Secured Party solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral pursuant to the applicable Security Documents, notwithstanding the Discharge of the Credit Agreement Obligations.
(d) Each Authorized Representative agrees, for itself and its Related Secured Parties, that if the other Authorized Representative is exercising its rights and remedies to enforce its security interest or realize upon any Shared Collateral (such Authorized Representative exercising its rights and remedies, the “Exercising Representative”), it shall promptly, and in any event within 2 Business Days, transfer to the Exercising Representative upon its request any Possessory Collateral in its possession, the possession of which the Exercising Representative must have in order to enforce its security interest or realize upon such Shared Collateral.
(e) No Authorized Representative, acting pursuant to this Section, shall have, by reason of the Security Documents, this Agreement or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Secured Party, and each Secured Party hereby waives and releases each Authorized Representative from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to such Authorized Representative’s role under this Section as gratuitous bailee with respect to the Possessory Collateral.

ARTICLE III
Determinations with Respect to Obligations and Liens
Whenever, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Authorized Representative of a Class shall be required to determine the existence or amount of any Obligations of the other Class, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the Obligations of the other Class (and whether such Lien constitutes a valid and perfected Lien), it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by the Authorized Representative of such Class and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided that if, notwithstanding such request, the Authorized Representative of the applicable Class shall refuse to provide, or fail to reasonably promptly provide, the requested information, the requesting Authorized Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative. Each Authorized Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any Secured Party or any other Person as a result of such determination or any action taken or not taken pursuant thereto.
ARTICLE IV
Concerning the Authorized Representatives
SECTION 4.01. Authority. Each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that each Authorized Representative shall be entitled, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the Security Documents, without regard to any rights, remedies or powers to which the Related Secured Parties of the other Authorized Representative would otherwise be entitled as a result of their Secured Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, agrees that neither Authorized Representative or any other Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the other Authorized Representative and its Related Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of Proceeds actually received by the other Authorized Representative and its Related Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the Authorized Representatives, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, waives any claim it may now or hereafter have against the other Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of the other Class arising out of (a) any actions that such Authorized Representative or Secured Party takes or omits to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale or other disposition of, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the Class of Obligations for which it is the Authorized Representative or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for such Obligations, (b) any election by such Authorized Representative or Secured Parties, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (c) subject to Section 2.06, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of or order granted pursuant to any other Bankruptcy Law by, any Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither Authorized Representative shall accept any Shared Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, or any similar provision of any other personal property security laws in any other jurisdiction, without the consent of the other Authorized Representative representing Secured Parties for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral.
- 14 -
SECTION 4.02. Rights as a Secured Party.

Each Person serving as an Authorized Representative and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate as if such Person were not an Authorized Representative hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other Secured Party.
SECTION 4.03. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither Authorized Representative shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Authorized Representative:
(i) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the Security Documents that such Authorized Representative is required to exercise; provided that neither Authorized Representative shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or in the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Authorized Representative to liability or that is contrary to any Security Document (as modified by this Agreement) or applicable law;
(iii) shall, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the Security Documents, have any duty to disclose, and neither Authorized Representative shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of its other Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Authorized Representative or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;
- 15 -
(iv) shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (A) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or (B) in reliance on a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative stating that such action is permitted by the terms of this Agreement;
(v) shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default under any Secured Documents of the other Class unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to such Authorized Representative by the Authorized Representative of such other Class or a Borrower; and
(vi) shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any Security Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any Security Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the validity, attachment, creation, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (E) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral for Obligations of any Class or (F) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Authorized Representative.
SECTION 4.04. Reliance by the Authorized Representatives. Each Authorized Representative shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Authorized Representative shall also be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person. Each Authorized Representative may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers, any other Grantor or either Authorized Representative), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
SECTION 4.05. Delegation of Duties. Each Authorized Representative may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Authorized Representative. Each Authorized Representative and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of such Authorized Representative and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as an Authorized Representative.

SECTION 4.06. Collateral Matters.
(a) Each of the Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes each Authorized Representative, at its option and in its discretion:
(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by either Authorized Representative under any Security Document in accordance with Sections 2.03 and 2.05 or upon receipt of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative stating that such release is permitted by the terms of the Credit Documents; and
(ii) to release any Grantor from its obligations under the Security Documents upon receipt of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative stating that such release is permitted by the terms of the Credit Documents.
(b) Neither Authorized Representative shall accept any Collateral for its benefit and/or the benefit of its Related Secured Parties that is not also provided as Collateral for the benefit of the other Authorized Representative and/or its Related Secured Parties other than, in the case of the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent, the Excluded Collateral.
ARTICLE V

SECTION 5.01. No Reliance; Information. Each Authorized Representative, for itself and on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, acknowledges that (a) such Authorized Representative and its Related Secured Parties have, independently and without reliance upon the other Authorized Representative or any of its Related Secured Parties, and based on such documents and information as they have deemed appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Credit Documents to which they are party and (b) such Authorized Representative and its Related Secured Parties will, independently and without reliance upon the other Authorized Representative or any of its Related Secured Parties, and based on such documents and information as they shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to which they are party. The Authorized Representative or Secured Parties of a Class shall have no duty to disclose to any Secured Party of the other Class any information relating to any Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any other circumstance bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Obligations, that is known or becomes known to any of them or any of their Affiliates. If the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of a Class, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to, as the case may be, the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of the other Class, it shall be under no obligation (i) to make, and shall not be deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of the information so provided, (ii) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion or (iii) to undertake any investigation.
- 17 -
SECTION 5.02. No Warranties or Liability.

The Authorized Representative and the Secured Parties of each Class will be entitled to manage and supervise their loans and other extensions of credit in the manner determined by them.
(b) No Authorized Representative or Secured Party of a Class shall have any express or implied duty to the Authorized Representative or any Secured Party of the other Class to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default under any Credit Document (other than, in each case, this Agreement), regardless of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with.

In the event any Subsidiary of any Borrower shall have granted a Lien on any of its assets to secure any Obligations, the Borrowers shall cause such Subsidiary, if not already a party hereto, to become a party hereto as a “Grantor”. Upon the execution and delivery by any Subsidiary of a Grantor Joinder Agreement, any such Subsidiary shall become a party hereto and a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party hereto.

SECTION 7.14. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Credit Documents, represents the agreement of each of the Grantors and the Secured Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Grantor, the Authorized Representatives or any other Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents.
