ARTICLE V

REMEDIES

Section 5.1 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) the Agent may (and at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall) exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(i) those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this Section 5.1(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights available to the Agent and the Secured Parties prior to an Event of Default;

(ii) those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ Lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement;

(iii) give notice of sole control or any other instruction under any control or similar agreement and take any action provided therein with respect to the applicable Collateral;

(iv) without notice (except as specifically provided in Section 7.1 or elsewhere herein), demand or advertisement of any kind to any Grantor or any other Person, enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help, and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice and may take place at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and

(v) concurrently with written notice to the Grantors, transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Agent was the outright owner thereof.

(b) Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the compliance by the Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(c) The Agent shall have the right upon any public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption each Grantor hereby expressly releases.

(d) Until the Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of Collateral, the Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or the value of the Collateral, or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Agent. The Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Agent and Secured Parties) with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Agent nor the Secured Parties shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the Grantors, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or

remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.

(f) Each Grantor recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if any Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so (it being acknowledged and agreed that no Grantor shall have any obligation hereunder to do so).

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any rights and remedies provided in this Section 5.1 shall be subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) permit the Agent, by the Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy.

of such Trademarks; and provided further that the Agent shall have no greater rights than those of any such Grantor under such license or sublicense; and (b) irrevocably agrees that, at any time and from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may sell any Grantor’s Inventory directly to any Person, including without limitation Persons who have previously purchased any Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, may (subject to any restrictions contained in applicable third party licenses entered into by a Grantor) sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Agent may finish any work in process and affix any relevant Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein. The use of the license granted pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence by the Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and shall be subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement; provided, however, that any permitted license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

ARTICLE VII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 7.1 Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article VIII, at least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Agent or any Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or such Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Agent or any Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

Section 7.2 Limitation on Agent’s and Secured Party’s Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Agent and each Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Agent, nor any Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or

control of any agent or nominee of the Agent or such Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Agent to exercise remedies, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it would be commercially reasonable for the Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as a Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements at the Grantors’ cost to insure the Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 7.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and that other actions or omissions by the Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 7.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 7.2.

Section 7.3 Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

Section 7.4 Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay under this Security Agreement and such Grantor shall reimburse the Agent for any amounts paid by the Agent pursuant to this Section 7.4. Each Grantor’s obligation to reimburse the Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable on demand.

Section 7.5 No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay by the Agent or any Secured Party in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single 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 Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement or consent to any departure by any Secured Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless in writing signed by the Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the Lenders required under Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

Section 7.6 Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security 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 Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

Section 7.7 Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

Section 7.8 Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Grantor, the Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns (including all Persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties, hereunder.

Section 7.9 Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of each Grantor contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement.

Section 7.10 Taxes and Expenses. To the extent required by Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement, or otherwise, each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to (i) pay any taxes payable or ruled payable by Federal or State authority in respect of this Security Agreement, together with interest and penalties, if any, and (ii) reimburse the Agent for any and all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Collateral). Any and all costs and expenses incurred by any Grantor in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by such Grantor.

Section 7.11 Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to and in accordance with Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall cause (i) each Material Domestic Subsidiary (other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary or Excluded Subsidiary) formed or acquired after the date of this Security Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and (ii) any Material Domestic Subsidiary that was an Excluded Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary but has ceased to be an Excluded Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary, to enter into this Security Agreement as a Subsidiary Party as promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable (but in no event to exceed forty-five (45) days after such formation or acquisition or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Agent in writing). Upon execution and delivery by the Agent and such Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Exhibit I hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument 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 Security Agreement.

Section 7.12 Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement.

Section 7.13 Termination or Release.

(a) This Security Agreement shall continue in effect until the Termination Date.

(b) A Subsidiary Party shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the security interests created hereunder in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Party shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Party ceases to be a Subsidiary.

(c) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under Section 4.1(d) to any Person that is not another Grantor or, upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released.

(d) The security interests granted hereunder on any Collateral, to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Loan Party, shall be automatically released upon termination or expiration of such lease, pursuant to Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement.

(e) The security interests created hereunder in the Collateral shall be automatically released as required pursuant to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement; provided that the Agent may, in its discretion, release the Lien on Collateral as provided in Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement.

(f) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c), (d), or (e) above, the Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all UCC termination statements and similar documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.13 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Agent or any Secured Party. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.18, the Borrower shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for all reasonable and documented costs and out of pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and expenses of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 7.13.

Section 7.14 Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between each Grantor and the Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between any Grantor and the Agent relating to the Collateral.

Section 7.15 CHOICE OF LAW. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 7.16 Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. federal or New York State court sitting in New York, New York, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any 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 shall be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Grantor 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.

(b) Each Grantor hereto 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 Security Agreement in any court referred to in clause (a) of this Section. 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 Grantor irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.1 herein. Nothing in this Security Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect the right of the Agent or any Secured Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 7.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GRANTOR (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 SECURITY AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 7.18 Indemnity. Each Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Agent, the other Secured Parties, and their respective Related Parties harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities, and related expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Agent or any Secured Party is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent or the Secured Parties, or their respective Related Parties, in any way relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement, to the extent the Grantor would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 7.19 Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall

constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement.
