adding
-10-
additional schedules hereto to specifically identify any asset or item that may

notified by the Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such
Collateral, to advise the Collateral Agent in writing of any inaccuracy of the
representations and warranties made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to

as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, and each of the Grantors
jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for any
payment made or any expense incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the
foregoing authorization; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall
be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any
obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any
covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments,
charges, fees, liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance
as set forth herein or in the Credit Agreement.

creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other person granting
the security interest.
SECTION 4.08. Continuing Obligations of the Grantors. Each of the Grantors
shall remain liable to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to

at all times in possession of the Collateral owned by it, except that (a)

until the Collateral Agent shall notify the Grantors that an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and that during the continuance thereof
the Grantors shall not sell, convey, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral (which notice may be given by telephone if promptly
confirmed in writing), the Grantors may use and dispose of the Collateral in any
lawful manner not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each Grantor agrees that (i) it shall not permit any Inventory to be
in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee, agent or processor at
any time unless such possession or control will not effect the perfection and
priority of the Security Interest in such Inventory or arrangements are made so
that such perfection and priority will not be affected and (ii) if any warehouse
receipt (or other receipt in the nature of a warehouse receipt) is issued with
respect to any Inventory, such receipt shall be delivered to the Collateral
Agent.

maintain or cause to be maintained insurance covering physical loss or damage to
the Inventory in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. All
such policies of insurance shall be endorsed or otherwise amended to include a
-12-
lender's loss payable endorsement, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent, which shall provide that from and after the date, if any, on
which the insurance carrier receives written notice from the Collateral Agent
that an Event of Default has occurred, all proceeds otherwise payable to the
Borrower or any other Grantor under such policies shall be payable directly to
the Collateral Agent. Such endorsement or an independent instrument furnished to
the Collateral Agent shall provide that the insurance carriers will give the
Collateral Agent at least 30 days' prior written notice before any such policy
or policies of insurance shall be altered or canceled and that no act or default
of any Grantor or any other person shall affect the right of the Collateral
Agent to recover under such policy or policies of insurance in case of loss or
damage.
(b) Each Grantor irremovably makes, constitutes and appoints the
Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the
Collateral Agent) as such Grantor's true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact)
for the purpose, during the continuance of an Event of Default, of making,
settling and adjusting claims in respect of Collateral under policies of
insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or
other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for
making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. In the event that
any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the
policies of insurance required hereby to pay any premium in whole or part
relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, without waiving or releasing any
obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Event of Default, in
its sole discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such
premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Collateral Agent
deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent in connection with
this Section, including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, expenses and
other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Grantors
to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Obligations secured hereby.
SECTION 4.12. Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright

its licensees to, do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any Patent which is
material to the conduct of such Grantor's business may become invalidated or
dedicated to the public, and agrees that it shall continue to ▇▇▇▇ any products
covered by a Patent with the relevant Patent number as necessary and sufficient
to establish and preserve its maximum rights under applicable Patent laws.
(b) Each Grantor (either itself or through its licensees or its
sublicensees) will, for each Trademark material to the
-13-
conduct of such Grantor's business, (i) maintain such Trademark in full force
free from any claim of abandonment or invalidity for non-use, (ii) maintain the
quality of products and services offered under such Trademark, (iii) display
such Trademark with notice of federal or foreign registration to the extent
necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its maximum rights under
applicable law and (iv) not knowingly use or knowingly permit the use of such
Trademark in violation of any third party rights.
(c) Each Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will, for each work
covered by a material Copyright, continue to publish, reproduce, display, adopt

sufficient to establish and preserve its maximum rights under applicable
copyright laws.
(d) Each Grantor shall notify the Collateral Agent immediately if it knows
or has reason to know that any Patent, Trademark or Copyright material to the
conduct of its business may become abandoned, lost or dedicated to the public,
or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or
any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States
Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any court or
similar office of any country) regarding such Grantor's ownership of any Patent,
Trademark or Copyright, its right to register the same, or to keep and maintain
the same.
(e) In no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through any agent,
employee, licensee or designee, file an application for any Patent, Trademark or
Copyright (or for the registration of any Trademark or Copyright) with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any
office or agency in any political subdivision of the United States or in any
other country or any political subdivision thereof, unless it promptly informs
the Collateral Agent, and, upon request of the Collateral Agent, executes and
delivers any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the
Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Collateral Agent's
security interest in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and each Grantor
hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact to execute and file
such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby
ratified and confirmed; such power, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable.
(f) Each Grantor will take all necessary steps that are consistent with
the practice in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark
Office, United States Copyright Office or any office or agency in any political
subdivision of the United States or in any other country or any political
subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each material
-14-
application relating to the Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights (and to obtain
the relevant grant or registration) and to maintain each issued Patent and each
registration of the Trademarks and Copyrights which is material to the conduct
of any Grantor's business, including timely filings of applications for renewal,
affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance
fees, and, if consistent with good business judgment, to initiate opposition,
interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties.
(g) In the event that any Collateral consisting of a Patent, Trademark or
Copyright material to the conduct of any Grantor's business is believe
infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor promptly
shall notify the Collateral Agent after it obtains knowledge thereof and shall,
if consistent with good business judgment, promptly ▇▇▇ for infringement,
misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such
infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and take such other actions as are
appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Collateral.
(h) Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor
shall use its best efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the
licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License to
effect the assignment of all the Grantors' right, title and interest thereunder
to the Collateral Agent or its designee.
ARTICLE V
COLLECTIONS
SECTION 5.01. Collection Deposit Accounts. (a) At any time that an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the written request of the
Collateral Agent, each Grantor agrees to establish and maintain one or more
Collection Deposit Accounts with the Collateral Agent or with any financial
institution that is satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and enters into a
Lockbox Agreement.
(b) Upon and after the establishment of any Collection Deposit Accounts as
provided above, each Grantor shall use all reasonable efforts to prevent any
funds which are not payments on Accounts Receivable or Inventory from being
deposited into, or otherwise commingled with, the funds held in the Collection
Deposit Accounts. Unless and until the Collection Deposit Accounts are converted
to closed lockbox accounts pursuant to paragraph (c) below, each Grantor may at
any time withdraw any of the funds contained in a Collection Deposit Account of
such
-15-
Grantor for use, subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents, for general
corporate purposes.
(c) Effective upon notice to the Grantors from the Collateral Agent after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (which notice
may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing), each Collection
Deposit Account will, without any further action on the part of any Grantor, the
Collateral Agent or any Sub-Agent, convert into a closed lockbox account under
the exclusive dominion and control of the Collateral Agent in which funds are
held subject to the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. No Grantor shall
thereafter have any right or power to withdraw any funds from any Collection
Deposit Account without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent until all
Events of Default are cured or waived. The Grantors irrevocably authorize the
Collateral Agent to notify each Sub-Agent (i) of the occurrence of an Event of
Default and (ii) of the matters referred to in this paragraph (c). Following the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may instruct each
Sub-Agent to transfer immediately all funds held in each Collection Deposit
Account to an account maintained with the Collateral Agent.
SECTION 5.02. Collections. So long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Grantors shall have the right to collect all
Accounts Receivable and other payments in respect of Inventory in the ordinary
course of their businesses; provided, however, that the Grantors agree, if an
Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and if the Collateral Agent shall
by notice to the Grantors so request (which notice may be given by telephone if
promptly confirmed in writing), (i) to arrange for remittances on any Accounts
Receivable and Inventory to be made directly to Collection Deposit Accounts
established in accordance with Section 5.01, and (ii) promptly to deposit all
payments received by the Grantors on account of Accounts Receivable and
Inventory, whether in the form of cash, checks, notes, drafts, bills of
exchange, money orders or otherwise, in such Collection Deposit Accounts in
precisely the form in which received (but with any endorsements of the Grantors
necessary for deposit or collection), and until they are so deposited such
payments shall be held in trust by the Grantors for and as the property of the
Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with the Grantors' other funds.
SECTION 5.03. Power of Attorney. The Collateral Agent shall have the
right, as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of each of the
Grantors, with power of substitution for the Grantors and in each Grantor's name
or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured
Parties, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
(a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes,
-16-
acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating
to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment
of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the
Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or ▇▇▇▇ of lading
relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send verifications of Accounts
Receivable to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all
suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent
jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or
to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise,
compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or
any of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require the Grantors to notify,
Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent; and (h) to
use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or
otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and
things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and
completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the
Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein contained
shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent or any
Secured Party to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or
sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent or any Secured
Party, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with
respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due
in respect thereof or any property covered thereby, and no action taken or
omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party with respect to
the Collateral or any part thereof shall give rise to any defense, counterclaim
or offset in favor of any Grantor or to any claim or action against the
Collateral Agent or any Secured Party. It is understood and agreed that the
appointment of the Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the
Grantors for the purposes set forth above is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable. The provisions of this Section shall in no event relieve any of the
Grantors of any of its obligations hereunder or under the Credit Agreement with
respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or impose any obligation on the
Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to proceed in any particular manner with
respect to the Collateral or any part thereof, or in any way limit the exercise
by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any other or further right which
it may have on the date of this Agreement or hereafter, whether hereunder, under
any other Loan Document, by law or otherwise.
-17-
ARTICLE VI
REMEDIES
SECTION 6.01. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, each of the Grantors agrees to deliver each
item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent on demand, and it is agreed that the
Collateral Agent shall have the right (subject to applicable law) to take any of
or all the following actions at the same or different times: (a) with respect to
any Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, to cause the
Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or
all such Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Collateral Agent, or to
license or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, sublicense, whether
general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive
basis, any such Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and
in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation
of any then-existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be
obtained), and (b) with or without legal process and with or without previous
notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Collateral and
without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Collateral may be
located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Collateral and,
generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the
Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, each of the Grantors agrees that the Collateral Agent shall
have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of current law, to sell or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, at public or private
sale or at any broker's board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon
credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate.
The Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it
advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons
who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their
own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale
thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have
the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof
the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the
property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any of the
Grantors, and each of the Grantors hereby waives (to the extent permitted by
law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or
may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing
or hereafter enacted.
-18-
The Collateral Agent shall give the Grantors 10 days' written notice
(which each of the Grantors agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of
Section 9-504(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New
York or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent's
intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public
sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at
a broker's board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange
at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion
thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. 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 and state in the
Notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion
thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate
parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion)
determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any
Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that
notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. 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 sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time
and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any
part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral
so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by
the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur
any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and
pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral
may be sold again upon like notice. At any public sale made pursuant to this
Section, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent
permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on
the part of any of the Grantors (all said rights being also hereby waived and
released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof
offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then
due and payable to such Secured Party from any of the Grantors as a credit
against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the
terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further
accountability to any of the Grantors therefor. For purposes hereof, a written
agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as
a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale
pursuant to such agreement and none of the Grantors shall be entitled to the
return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding
the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an
agreement all
-19-
Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations paid in full. As
an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the
Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose
this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a
judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or
pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.
SECTION 6.02. Application of Proceeds. The Collateral Agent shall apply the
proceeds of any collection or sale of the Collateral, as well as any Collateral
consisting of cash, as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such
hereunder or under any other Loan Document) in connection with such
collection or sale or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or any
of the Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of
its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the
Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of
any of the Grantors and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection
with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan
Document;
SECOND, to the payment in full of the Obligations (the amounts so
applied to be distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance
with the amounts of the Obligations owed to them on the date of any such
distribution);
THIRD, to the extent and so long as any Letter or Letters of Credit
remain outstanding and entrain, to be held and retained by the Collateral
Agent and applied to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement
thereafter made; and
FOURTH, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court
of competent jurisdictions may otherwise direct.
The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of
application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this
Agreement. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including
pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding),
the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a
sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold
and such purchase or purchasers shall not be
-20-
obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over
to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in anyway for the
misapplication thereof.
SECTION 6.03. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the
purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under
this Article VI at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled
to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the
Collateral Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without
payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or
sublicense any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned
or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and
including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the
licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and
programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license
by the Collateral Agent shall be exercised, at the option of the Collateral
Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default;
provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the
Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantors
notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.
ARTICLE VII

discharge of, any Grantor, in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement.
SECTION 7.03. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by any Grantor herein and in the
certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to
have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making by the Lenders
of the Loans, and the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letters of Credit,
regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or on their behalf, and
shall continue in full force and effect until this Agreement shall terminate.
SECTION 7.04. Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall
become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf
of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the Collateral Agent and a
counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Collateral Agent,
and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Collateral Agent and
their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such
Grantor, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective
successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign
its rights hereunder or any interest herein or in the Collateral except as
expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement
shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may
be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any
Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the
obligations of any other Grantor hereunder.
SECTION 7.05. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of
the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the
successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements
by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in
this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective
successors and assigns.
SECTION 7.06. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each of the
Grantors hereby appoints the Collateral Agent the attorney-in-fact of such
Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and
taking any action and executing any instrument which the Collateral Agent may
deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment
is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.
-22-
SECTION 7.07. Collateral Agent's Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each of
the Grantors jointly and severally agrees to pay upon demand to the Collateral
Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable
fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts or agents, which the
Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this
Agreement (including the customary fees of the Collateral Agent for any audits
conducted by it with respect to the Accounts Receivable or Inventory ), (ii) the
custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization
upon any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise, enforcement or protection of any
of the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder or (iv) the failure of the
Grantors to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
(b) Without limitation of their indemnification obligations under the
other Loan Documents, each of the Grantors jointly and severally agrees to
indemnify the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties against, and hold
each of them harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses, incurred by or
asserted against any of them arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a
result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any
claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating hereto or to the
Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party is a party thereto; provided that
such indemnity shall not, as to any Secured Party, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such
Secured Party.
(c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional
Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions
of this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless
of the termination of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or
any Lender. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written
demand therefor.
SECTION 7.08. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 7.09. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Collateral
Agent in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single
-23-
or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights
and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder and of the Collateral Agent, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the other Loan Documents are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would
otherwise have. No waiver of any provisions of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given. No notice or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle such Grantor
or any other Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended
or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which
such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, with (and subject to) the
prior written consent of the Required Lenders or, if the effect of such
agreement is to release all or any substantial part of the Collateral other than
in accordance with Section 7.15, each Lender.
SECTION 7.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF,
UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY
OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B)
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER
INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
SECTION 7.11. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to
replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions
the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions.
-24-
SECTION 7.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when
taken together shall constitute but one contract (subject to Section 7.04), and
shall become effective as provided in Section 7.04.
SECTION 7.13. Headlines. Article and Section headings used herein are for
convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to
affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting,
this Agreement.
SECTION 7.14. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each
Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or
Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent
permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that
a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the
Collateral Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against any
Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(b) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any
New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of
process in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.01. Nothing in this
Agreement will affected the right of any party to this Agreement to serve
process in any other manner permitted by law.
SECTION 7.15. Termination. This Agreement and the Security Interest shall
terminate when all the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the
Lenders have no further
-25-
commitment to extend credit and the Issuing Bank has no further commitment to
issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement and all outstanding Letters
of Credit have been cancelled (or at such earlier time as such termination
occurs pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.17 of the Credit Agreement),
at which time the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to the Grantors, at
the Grantors' expense, all Uniform Commercial Code termination statements and
similar documents which the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination. Any execution and delivery of termination statements or documents
pursuant to this Section 7.15 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the
Collateral Agent. Each Subsidiary Grantor shall automatically be released from
its obligations hereunder and the Security Interest in the Collateral owned by
such Subsidiary Grantor shall be automatically released in the event that all
the capital stock of such Subsidiary Grantor shall be sold, transferred or
otherwise disposed of to a person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement; provided that the Required
lenders shall have consented to such sale, transfer or other disposition and the
terms of such consent did not provide otherwise.
SECTION 7.16. Additional Grantors. Upon execution and delivery by the
Collateral Agent and a Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Annex 3
hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Grantor and Grantor hereunder
with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Grantor
and Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not
require the consent of any Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each
Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the
addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.
