SECTION 7. REMEDIES.

7.1 Generally.

(a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

(i) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere;

(ii) peacefully enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

(iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary; and

(iv) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, give option or options to purchase, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the following) in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board, any of the Collateral Agent’s or Lender’s offices or elsewhere, for cash or on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable without assumption of any credit risk.

(b) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of a proposed sale or other disposition shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable and proper notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time

-20-

and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, each Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency. Nothing in this Section shall in any way alter the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

(c) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Grantor shall assert, and each Grantor hereby waives, any claim against the Collateral Agent, and each of its Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) (as opposed to direct or actual damages), whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement, arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or referred to herein, the transactions contemplated hereby, or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Grantor hereby waives, releases and agrees not to ▇▇▇ upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

7.2 Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Collateral Agent against, the Secured Obligations in the order of priority set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement.

7.3 Sales on Credit. If Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit in connection with the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7, Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.

7.4 Deposit Accounts. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, may apply the balance from any Deposit Account or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account to or for the benefit of the Collateral Agent to be applied subject to the Intercreditor Agreement to the Secured Obligations in the order of priority set forth in Section 2.15(h) of the ABL Credit Agreement.

7.5 Investment Related Property.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any Investment Related Property by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or may determine that a public sale is impracticable or not commercially reasonable and accordingly may resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted purchaser or group of purchasers who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Related Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Investment Related Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it.

(b) [Intentionally Omitted].

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon notice by the Collateral Agent to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any Proceeds of the Pledged Collateral and make application thereof to the Obligations in the order set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement and (ii) the Collateral Agent or its nominee may exercise (A) any voting, consent, corporate and other right pertaining to the Pledged Collateral at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, of the relevant issuer or issuers of Pledged Collateral or otherwise and (B) any right of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other right, privilege or option pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any of the Pledged Collateral upon the merger, amalgamation, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or equivalent structure of any issuer of Pledged Stock, the right to deposit and deliver any Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(d) In order to permit the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and to receive all dividends and other distributions that it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (i) each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Collateral Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request and (ii) without limiting the effect of clause (i) above, such Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged Collateral would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, calling special meetings of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other person (including the issuer of such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof) during the continuance of an Event of Default.

-22-

(e) Each Grantor hereby expressly authorizes and instructs each issuer of any Pledged Collateral constituting Collateral pledged hereunder by such Grantor to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividend or other payment with respect to such Pledged Collateral directly to the Collateral Agent.

(f) The Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in its discretion and without notice to the Grantor, to transfer to or to register in its name or in the name of its nominees any Investment Related Property constituting Collateral;

(g) The Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exchange any certificate or instrument representing or evidencing any Investment Related Property constituting Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

7.6 Receivables.

(a) In addition to, and not in substitution for, any similar requirement in the ABL Credit Agreement, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if required by the Collateral Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7, any payment of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, shall be forthwith deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, in an Approved Deposit Account or a Cash Collateral Account, subject to withdrawal by the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 7.8).

(b) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, at the Collateral Agent’s request, during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7, the Collateral Agent may notify, or require any Grantor to notify, each Person maintaining a lockbox or similar arrangement to which Account Debtors under any Receivables have been directed to make payment to remit all amounts representing collections on checks and other payment items from time to time sent to or deposited in such lockbox or other arrangement directly to the Collateral Agent to be applied to the Secured Obligations in the order of priority set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement.

(c) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, at the Collateral Agent’s request, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may enforce, at the expense of such Grantor, collection of any such Receivables and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done.

(d) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, at the Collateral Agent’s request, during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7 and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent all available original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions that gave rise to the payments in respect of Receivables, including all available original orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

(e) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent may, upon notice, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7, limit or terminate the authority of a Grantor to collect its amounts with respect to Receivables.

-23-

(f) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate, in coordination with the applicable Grantor, with Account Debtors to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any amounts due with respect to any Receivable.

(g) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7, each Grantor shall notify Account Debtors that the Receivables have been collaterally assigned to the Collateral Agent and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent. In addition, the Collateral Agent may at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default (A) enforce such Grantor’s rights against such Account Debtors and (B) notify, or require any Grantor to notify, any Account Debtor of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Receivables and any Supporting Obligation and use commercially reasonable efforts to keep in full force and effect any Supporting Obligation or Collateral Support relating to any Receivable.

(h) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable for payments in respect of Receivables to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any agreement giving rise to a payment in respect of a Receivable by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any obligation of any Grantor under or pursuant to any agreement giving rise to a payment in respect of a Receivable, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

7.7 Intellectual Property.

(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and upon the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Section 7, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement:

(i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent or otherwise, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 10.2 of the ABL Credit Agreement in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section, and, to the extent that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property as provided in this Section, each Grantor agrees to use all reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement or other violation of any of such Grantor’s rights in the Material Intellectual Property by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement or violation;

-24-

(ii) upon written demand from the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Collateral Agent or such Collateral Agent’s designee all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Material Intellectual Property and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement;

(iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that the Collateral Agent (or any Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, the Material Intellectual Property;

(iv) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to notify, or require each Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Material Intellectual Property, of the existence of the security interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to the Collateral Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done; and

(v) all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 7.8 hereof.

(b) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to the Collateral Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not then be immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Collateral Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by the Collateral Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Collateral Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties.

(c) Solely for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7 and at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled, and permitted under the Credit Documents, to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent it has the right to do so, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of said Trademarks, to use, operate under, license, or sublicense any Material Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located.

-25-

7.8 Cash Proceeds. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and upon the request of the Collateral Agent, in addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent specified in Section 4.3 with respect to payments of Receivables, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other non-cash items (collectively, “Cash Proceeds”) shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent, and deposited in the Cash Collateral Account or a Deposit Account subject to an effective Deposit Account Control Agreement or otherwise be segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, unless otherwise provided pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required) and held by the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Account. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, any Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent (whether from a Grantor or otherwise) shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in the manner prescribed by the ABL Credit Agreement.

SECTION 8. COLLATERAL AGENT.

The Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder by Lenders and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof, the other Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement, the ABL Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section. The Collateral Agent may resign in accordance with the terms of the ABL Credit Agreement.

SECTION 9. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF LOANS.

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations not then due and payable), be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and permitted assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, permitted transferees and permitted assigns. Upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations not then due and payable) and to the extent otherwise contemplated by Section 9.8 of the ABL Credit Agreement, the security interest granted hereby shall, subject to Section 11.6 hereof, automatically terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors. Upon any such termination the Collateral Agent shall, at Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to Grantors or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, including financing statement amendments to evidence such termination. Upon any disposition of property permitted by the ABL Credit Agreement (other than any such disposition to another Grantor), the Liens granted herein shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor with no further action on the part of any Person. The Collateral Agent shall, at Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release.

-26-

SECTION 10. STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM.

The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein beyond the expiration of any applicable cure or grace period pursuant to Section 8.1 of the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor under Section 10.2 of the ABL Credit Agreement.

SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.

11.1 Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 10.1 of the ABL Credit Agreement.

11.2 Independent Effect. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

11.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Grantors and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

11.4 No Assignment. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent given in accordance with the ABL Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder other than in connection with a transaction permitted by the ABL Credit Agreement.

11.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are attached to the same document. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission, electronic mail or by posting on the Platform shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

11.6 Reinstatement. Each Grantor further agrees that, if any payment made by any Credit Party or other Person and applied to the Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Credit Party, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made or, if prior thereto the Lien granted hereby or other Collateral securing such liability

-27-

hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender, such Lien or other Collateral shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect any Lien or other Collateral securing the obligations of any Grantor in respect of the amount of such payment.

11.7 Other Agreements. This Agreement and each other Credit Documents are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement in all respects and, in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Credit Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, this Agreement and any other Credit Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control with respect to any right or remedy. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of the Collateral Agent (and the Secured Parties) shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and no Credit Party shall be required hereunder or under any Credit Document to take any action with respect to the Collateral that is inconsistent with such Loan Parties’ obligations under any Fixed Asset Facility. The Collateral Agent may not require any Credit Party to take any action with respect to the creation, perfection or priority of its , whether pursuant to the express terms hereof or of any other Credit Document or pursuant to the further assurance provisions hereof or any other Credit Document, to the extent that such action would be violative of the Intercreditor Agreement or such Loan Party’s obligations under any Fixed Asset Facility. The delivery of any Collateral to the collateral agent under any Fixed Asset Facility pursuant to any Fixed Asset Facility shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Credit Document to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

11.8 Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, in no case shall any Grantor that is an “Excluded Subsidiary” pursuant to clause (g) of such definition (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) guarantee, pledge any Collateral as security for, or otherwise be liable for, the US Obligations (including by way of indemnity or otherwise) and such Grantor shall be obligated solely in respect of, and such Grantor’s Collateral shall be security solely for, the Non-US Obligations.

11.9 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

-28-
