(d) Investment Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time acquire any certificated securities constituting Investment Property, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) after acquiring such security, (i) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent or (ii) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with respect to which a Securities Account Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the Noteholder Collateral Agent. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor constituting Investment Property are uncertificated and are issued to such Pledgor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) after acquiring such security notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent thereof and pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, either (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or other instructions from the Noteholder Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or such nominee, (ii) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such uncertificated security to be held in a Securities Account with respect to which the Noteholder Collateral Agent has Control or (iii) arrange for the Noteholder Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of the securities. The Pledgors shall not hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Noteholder Collateral Agent at least 15 days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall be reasonably acceptable to the Noteholder Collateral Agent and (3) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be. The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such withdrawal or dealing rights, would occur. The provisions of this Section 3.4(d) shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Noteholder Collateral Agent is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any Person other than the Noteholder Collateral Agent and, prior to the Discharge of ABL Obligations and to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Agent, and each Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent if any issuer of Pledged Interests takes any action to have any Pledged Interests issued by it treated as Securities under Article 8 of the UCC and such Pledgor shall take all steps deemed necessary, advisable or prudent by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in order to grant Control of such Pledged Interests in favor of the Noteholder Collateral Agent. As between the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a security entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the control of, the Noteholder Collateral Agent, the ABL Agent, a Securities Intermediary, Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other Person; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 3.4(d) shall release or relieve any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary of its duties and obligations to the Pledgors or any other Person under any Control Agreement or under applicable Legal Requirements. Each Pledgor shall promptly pay all Charges and fees of whatever kind or nature with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities pledged by it under this Agreement. In the event any Pledgor shall fail to make such payment contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, the Noteholder Collateral Agent may, after providing written notice thereof to the Pledgors, do so for the account of such Pledgor, and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Noteholder Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 11.4(a) hereof and Section 7.07 of the Indenture from all costs and expenses incurred by the Noteholder Collateral Agent under this Section 3.4(d).

(e) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.

The Noteholder Collateral Agent agrees with such Pledgor that the Noteholder Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s loss of control, for the Pledgor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or Transferable Record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after giving effect to any such alterations.

(f) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Pledgor having a face amount in excess of $300,000, individually or in the aggregate, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) after becoming a beneficiary thereunder (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer or other nominated Person of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the Noteholder Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange for the Noteholder Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Noteholder Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in this Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement.

(g) Commercial Tort Claims. As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims having a book value or a Fair Market Value, individually or in the aggregate, for all such Commercial Tort Claims in excess of $300,000 other than those listed on Schedule 15 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim having a book value or a Fair Market Value, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $300,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) after acquiring such Commercial Tort Claim notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Noteholder Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent.

If any Equipment or Inventory (other than Equipment or Inventory leased to a customer in the ordinary course of business) is in possession or control of any third party, including any warehouseman, landlord, lessor, bailee or agent, in any case for more than 3 months, the Pledgors shall notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent thereof and notify the third party of the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s security interest therein and use best efforts to obtain an acknowledgment (a “Bailee Letter”) from such third party that such party (i) is holding the Equipment and Inventory for the benefit of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, (ii) waives all right, title and interest in such Equipment and/or Inventory, and (iii) will comply with instructions from the Noteholder Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral, without further consent of any Pledgors; provided, that, the foregoing requirements shall not apply to Equipment or Inventory in the possession or control of any third party to the extent that the book value or Fair Market Value of such Equipment or Inventory (in each case, that is not in transit in the ordinary course of business) is less than $500,000 in the aggregate at any time. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if any such Bailee Letter is obtained under the Credit Agreement in favor of the ABL Agent with respect to any location for which the Noteholder Collateral Agent has not received such Bailee Letter, the applicable Pledgor shall obtain and deliver a Bailee Letter to the Noteholder Collateral Agent concurrently with delivery to the ABL Agent of such Bailee Letter under the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 3.5 Joinder of Additional Pledgors. The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary of the Company that, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Indenture, to execute and deliver to the Noteholder Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, (▇▇) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within 30 days after the date on which it was acquired or created (or such later date as may be agreed by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) and (iii) such other documentation in connection therewith as the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall request, and upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of, or failure to add, any new Guarantor or new Pledgor as a party to this Agreement or any other Notes Document.

SECTION 3.6 Supplements; Further Assurances. Subject to Section 3.7, each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute and deliver to the Noteholder Collateral Agent such additional assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Noteholder Collateral Agent may deem necessary, advisable or prudent, wherever required by applicable Legal Requirements, in order to perfect, preserve and protect the security interest and the priority thereof in the Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm unto the Noteholder Collateral Agent the Collateral or permit the Noteholder Collateral Agent, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Noteholder Collateral Agent from time to time upon reasonable request such lists, descriptions and designations of the Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments as the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall reasonably request.

Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (y) a landlord of any Pledgor shall provide notice of default under or termination of any lease to which a Pledgor is a party, such Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such landlord to agree (in a writing addressed to the Noteholder Collateral Agent) to extend the time period provided by such landlord for the removal of Collateral from the leased premises for a period, and otherwise on terms and conditions, reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent; provided that, in connection therewith, no Pledgor shall agree, directly or indirectly, with any landlord to abandon any Collateral or waive or limit such Pledgor’s rights in any Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors and shall be paid in accordance with Section 11.4(a) hereof and Section 7.07 of the Indenture.

(c) In determining whether any Foreign Located Assets are Excluded Property, Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date of valuation thereof.

(d) To the extent that any Foreign Located Asset or any Foreign Equity does not constitute Excluded Property and is not Specified Movable Property, the Pledgor shall diligently pursue such actions as are necessary to establish and thereafter maintain Foreign Perfection under the laws of the Foreign Jurisdiction with respect to such Foreign Located Asset and Foreign Equity to the extent the laws of the Foreign Jurisdiction so permit (or as the Noteholder Collateral Agent may request) as soon as reasonably practicable following:

(i) in the case of any Foreign Located Asset or Foreign Equity as to which clauses (b)(iii)(A)(2) and (b)(iii)(B) above apply, the 180^th day after the date hereof; and

(ii) in the case of any other Foreign Located Asset or Foreign Equity as to which clause (b)(iii) above does not apply, the 30^th day after the date hereof (or, in the case of any asset or property that becomes a Foreign Located Asset or Foreign Equity after the date hereof, the 180^th day after such asset or properly becomes a Foreign Located Asset or Foreign Equity).

(e) Upon the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s request, in connection with any actions specified in clause (c) above, the applicable Pledgor shall provide to the Noteholder Collateral Agent an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, confirming the Foreign Perfection under applicable Legal Requirements in the applicable Foreign Jurisdiction.

Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants as follows (it being acknowledged and agreed that each reference in the representations and warranties of this Article IV to a Schedule of the Perfection Certificate, shall be taken as a reference to such Schedule as contained in the most recently updated or supplemented Perfection Certificate in effect at the time such representation and warranty is made):

SECTION 4.1 Title. Except for the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns the Collateral (or either owns or has a license to, in the case of Intellectual Property Collateral) and, as to Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof, will own (or either own or have a License to, in the case of Intellectual Property Collateral) the rights in each item of Collateral pledged by it hereunder free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others (other than Permitted Liens). Such Pledgor has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file a financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Noteholder Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, filed in favor of the holder of a Permitted Lien, permitted by the Indenture or financing statements or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 9(a) to the Perfection Certificate. No Person other than the Noteholder Collateral Agent and, prior to the Discharge of ABL Obligations and to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Agent, has, or will have, control or possession of all or any part of the Collateral, except to the extent not prohibited by the Notes Documents.

SECTION 4.2 Validity of Security Interest. The security interest in and Lien on the Collateral granted to the Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Notes Obligations under applicable Legal Requirements in the United States, and (b) (i) in the case of all Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing a financing statement under the UCC, subject to the filings and other actions described on Schedule 7 to the Perfection Certificate, a valid and enforceable perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in all such Collateral under applicable Legal Requirements in the United States to the extent required by this Agreement and (ii) with respect to certificated Securities Collateral, Instruments, Tangible Chattel Paper, Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Commodities Accounts, certificated Investment Property, Electronic Chattel Paper, Transferable Records and Letter-of-Credit Rights, subject to the deliveries contemplated pursuant to Section 3.1 and Section 3.4 and the filings contemplated pursuant to Section 3.3, a valid and enforceable perfected first priority security interest (with respect to the perfected first priority security interest contemplated by Section 3.3, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and Permitted Liens) in all such Collateral under applicable Legal Requirements in the United States to the extent required by this Agreement. The security interest and Lien granted to the Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Collateral will at all times constitute a valid and enforceable perfected, continuing first priority security interest therein under applicable Legal Requirements in the United States to the extent required by this Agreement, subject only to clause (b) of the preceding sentence and Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.3 Pledgor Defense of Claims; Transferability of Collateral. Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend title to the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein granted to the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the priority thereof required hereunder against all claims and demands of all Persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Noteholder Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. Other than as contemplated by this Agreement or in the Intercreditor Agreement, there is no agreement that, to the knowledge of such Pledgor, restricts the transferability of any material portion of the Collateral or impairs or conflicts in any material respect with such Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder, and no Pledgor shall enter into any such agreement or take any other action that would have any such effect.

SECTION 4.4 Other Financing Statements. No Pledgor has filed, nor authorized any third party to file (nor will there be) any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Collateral under applicable Legal Requirements in the United States, other than financing statements and other statements and instruments filed in favor of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, or relating to Permitted Liens, or as otherwise permitted by the Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreement or financing statements or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 9(a) to the Perfection Certificate. Prior to the payment in full of the Notes Obligations, no Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted by such Pledgor in favor of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, or any holder of Permitted Liens, or as otherwise permitted by the Indenture.

Each Pledgor shall promptly provide the Noteholder Collateral Agent with certified Organizational Documents reflecting any of the changes described in the preceding sentence. Each Pledgor as to which any such change shall occur shall promptly notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent in writing of any change in the location of any office in which it maintains books or records relating to Collateral owned by it or any office or facility at which Collateral is located (including the establishment of any such new office or any such facility), other than changes in the locations of Equipment in the ordinary course of business or changes in location to a Mortgaged Property or a leased Property subject to a landlord access agreement in favor of the Noteholder Collateral Agent. The Noteholder Collateral Agent may rely on advice of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of the changes described in this Section 4.5(b).

(c) If any Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number or tax identification number and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall within ten Business Days (or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) notify the Noteholder Collateral Agent in writing of such organizational identification number or tax identification number, as the case may be.

(e) If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Noteholder Collateral Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a valid, enforceable, and perfected security interest with the priority required hereunder in such Pledgor’s property constituting Collateral, for which the Noteholder Collateral Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about any such change if no Pledgor informs the Noteholder Collateral Agent of any such change, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Noteholder Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any of the Pledgors.

SECTION 4.6 Location of Inventory and Equipment. As of the date hereof, all Equipment (including Commercial Motor Vehicles) and Inventory (if any) of each Pledgor is located at its chief executive office, such other location of such Pledgor (if any) listed on Schedules 2(c) and 2(d) to the Perfection Certificate, on project sites, or in transit to and from or being staged for delivery to project sites, where such Equipment (including Commercial Motor Vehicles) and Inventory (if any) may be used from time to time in the ordinary course of business.

(e) In the event that the proceeds of any insurance claim are paid after the Noteholder Collateral Agent has exercised its right to foreclose after an Event of Default, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be paid to the Noteholder Collateral Agent to satisfy any deficiency remaining after such foreclosure. The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall retain its interest in the insurance policies and coverages required to be maintained pursuant to the Indenture during any redemption period.

Each Pledgor shall promptly (i) provide to the Noteholder Collateral Agent written notice of any of the foregoing and (ii) confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (a) and (b) of the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 6.4 by execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be deemed necessary, advisable or prudent by the Noteholder Collateral Agent to preserve, protect or perfect the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s security interest or the priority thereof in such Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent such security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral may be perfected under applicable Legal Requirements in the United States.

The Pledgors shall execute any further documents and instruments as the Noteholder Collateral Agent may deem necessary, advisable or prudent to confirm, implement, or enforce the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s security interest in such applications. If the Pledgors fail to execute such further documents and instruments within ten Business Days (or such longer period as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) after presentment, then after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Noteholder Collateral Agent may, in the name of, and on behalf of, the Pledgors, execute such documents and instruments and make appropriate disposition of same, and the Pledgors hereby irrevocably appoint the Noteholder Collateral Agent as their lawful attorney-in-fact with full power to do so.

At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the request of the Noteholder Collateral Agent and in form and manner satisfactory to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall legend the Accounts and the other books, records and documents of such Pledgor evidencing or pertaining to the Accounts with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Accounts have been assigned to the Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Noteholder Collateral Agent has a security interest therein.

SECTION 7.4 Modification of Terms, etc. No Pledgor shall (i) rescind or cancel any obligations evidenced by any Account or modify any term thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto except in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with prudent business practices, or (ii) extend or renew any such obligations except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practices, or (iii) compromise or settle any dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating thereto or sell any Account or interest therein except in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with prudent business practices, without (in the case of each of (i), (ii) and (iii)) the prior written consent of the Noteholder Collateral Agent. Each Pledgor shall timely fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with the Accounts owned by such Pledgor.

SECTION 7.5 Collection. Each Pledgor shall cause to be collected from the account debtor of each of the Accounts, as and when due in the ordinary course of business and consistent with prudent business practices (including Accounts that are delinquent, such Accounts to be collected in accordance with generally accepted commercial collection procedures), any and all amounts owing under or on account of such Account, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such Account, except that any Pledgor may, with respect to an Account, allow in the ordinary course of business (i) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged or defective merchandise and (ii) such extensions of time to pay amounts due in respect of Accounts and such other modifications of payment terms or settlements in respect of Accounts as shall be commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all in accordance with such Pledgor’s ordinary course of business consistent with its collection practices as in effect from time to time. The costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of collection, in any case, whether incurred by any Pledgor, the Noteholder Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with Section 11.4(a) hereof and Section 7.07 of the Indenture.

ARTICLE IX

REMEDIES

SECTION 9.1 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Noteholder Collateral Agent may from time to time, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies:

(a) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Collateral is located, remove such Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor;

(b) Demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Noteholder Collateral Agent and shall promptly but in no event later than 3 Business Days after receipt thereof (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Noteholder Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) pay such amounts to the Noteholder Collateral Agent;

(c) Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation;

(d) Take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Noteholder Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Noteholder Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Noteholder Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, (ii) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Noteholder Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Noteholder Collateral Agent and (iii) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Collateral as contemplated in this Section 9.1(d) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

(e) Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Collateral for application to the Notes Obligations as provided in Article X;

(f) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Notes Obligations as provided in Article X;

(g) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Collateral; and

(h) Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and the Noteholder Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2, sell, assign, transfer or grant a license to use the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Noteholder Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Noteholder Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and 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, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Notes Obligations owed to such Person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable by such Person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted. The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Noteholder Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time 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 Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any claims against the Noteholder Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Noteholder Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree.

(i) By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and each other Notes Document, the Secured Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that any action taken by the Noteholder Collateral Agent under this Agreement and each other Notes Document may be enforced only by the action of the Noteholder Collateral Agent acting upon the instructions of the percentage of Holders required under the Indenture and that no other Secured Party shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, be exercised by the Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Notes Documents. Furthermore, each Pledgor agrees to, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Noteholder Collateral Agent in obtaining any approvals or assignments or licenses from any relevant Governmental Authority that may be necessary or desirable for the exercise of the rights and, remedies of the Noteholder Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral.

SECTION 9.2 Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by any Legal Requirement, ten (10) Business Days prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters, unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value (in which case no such prior notice shall be required) or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case no such prior notice shall be required). No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 9.3 Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling.

(a) Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, notice of judicial hearing in connection with the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Collateral, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under any Legal Requirement, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Legal Requirements. The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX except to the extent resulting solely from the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity or otherwise against such Pledgor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 9.2, each Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of the issuance of Notes, Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.

(c) The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Notes Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Legal Requirement relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Legal Requirements.

SECTION 9.4 Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. (a) To the extent that applicable Legal Requirements impose duties on the Noteholder Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Noteholder Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Noteholder Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete 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 to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third parties 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 fail to remove Liens or encumbrances 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 any Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the 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 capability 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 or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Noteholder Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Noteholder Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Noteholder Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Noteholder Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Pledgors acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 9.4 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Noteholder Collateral Agent would fulfill the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Legal Requirement of the State of New York or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 9.4. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9.4 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Noteholder Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Legal Requirements in the absence of this Section 9.4.

(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Legal Requirements, the Noteholder Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of a Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Noteholder Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

(c) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws, the Noteholder Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to Persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Noteholder Collateral Agent 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, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment 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 agree to do so.

(d) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if the Noteholder Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, then upon written request from the Noteholder Collateral Agent, the applicable Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Securities Collateral and Investment Property to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Noteholder Collateral Agent all such information as the Noteholder Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number and nature or interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Noteholder Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Noteholder Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

SECTION 9.5 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(i) No failure on the part of the Noteholder Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Noteholder Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy; nor shall the Noteholder Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. Subject to the terms of (and to the extent not inconsistent with) the Intercreditor Agreement, all rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable Legal Requirements, in equity or otherwise.

(ii) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Noteholder Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 9.6 Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the written demand of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, execute and deliver to the Noteholder Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the Intellectual Property Collateral that is Registered or such other documents as are necessary, advisable or prudent to carry out the intent and purposes hereof.

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 11.1 Concerning Noteholder Collateral Agent.

(i) The Noteholder Collateral Agent has been appointed as “Noteholder Collateral Agent” pursuant to the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement. The actions of the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the terms of the Indenture. The Noteholder Collateral Agent 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 action (including the release or substitution of the Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement, the Indenture, and the Intercreditor Agreement. 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 Noteholder Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Noteholder Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Noteholder Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Noteholder Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Indenture. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Noteholder Collateral Agent by a successor Noteholder Collateral Agent, that successor Noteholder Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Noteholder Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Noteholder Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Noteholder Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Noteholder Collateral Agent.

(ii) 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 Noteholder 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 Noteholder Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession from time to time if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Noteholder Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests; provided that neither the Noteholder Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall have responsibility for (x) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Noteholder Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, (y) failing to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, or (z) failing to take any necessary steps to preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral.

(iii) The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the instructions of the percentage of Holders required under the Indenture in requesting or requiring the performance of certain actions or the delivery of certain information for any actions to be performed or information to be delivered at the request of, or to the extent required by, the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder. The Noteholder Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(iv) If any item of Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Noteholder Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Noteholder Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine which provisions shall control, except that, to the extent that any such conflict shall be governed by the Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

(v) In addition to the foregoing rights, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall have the rights, protections and immunities given to it as Noteholder Collateral Agent under the Indenture, and such are incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 11.2 Noteholder Collateral Agent May Perform; Noteholder Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Noteholder Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any Charges, lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.13. Any and all amounts so expended by the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.4(a) hereof and Section 7.07 of the Indenture. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Noteholder Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each Pledgor hereby appoints the Noteholder Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Indenture, this Agreement and the other Notes Documents which the Noteholder Collateral Agent may deem necessary, advisable or prudent to accomplish the purposes hereof. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

SECTION 11.3 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Noteholder Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assignees (including permitted assignees pursuant to Section 11.04 of the Indenture). No other Persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 11.4 Release; Retention in Satisfaction; Etc.

(a) Collateral hereunder shall be released if and to the extent so provided in Sections 12.07 and 12.08 of the Indenture or upon the transfer or sale of any asset or property (other than transfers or sales to the Company or any Guarantor) theretofore included in Collateral to the extent permitted under Sections 3.7 or 8.1 of this Agreement.

(b) Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9-620 of the UCC, no action taken or omission to act by the Noteholder Collateral Agent or the Holders hereunder or under the Indenture or the other Security Documents shall be deemed to constitute a retention of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Notes Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Note Obligations, and the Notes Obligations shall remain in full force and effect until the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Holders shall have applied payments (including, without limitation, collections from Collateral) towards the Notes Obligations in the full amount then outstanding.

(c) Upon such release or any release of Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Notes Documents, the Noteholder Collateral Agent shall, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors and promptly after the Noteholder Collateral Agent’s receipt of such request, (i) assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgors, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Noteholder Collateral Agent except as to the fact that the Noteholder Collateral Agent has not encumbered the released assets except in accordance with the Security Documents, such of the Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of the Noteholder Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, the Indenture, or any other Security Document, and (ii) execute documents and instruments prepared by the Pledgors and acceptable to the Noteholder Collateral Agent (including UCC 3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the release of such Collateral.

SECTION 11.5 Costs and Expenses. Any action taken by any Pledgor under or with respect to any Notes Document, even if required under any Notes Document or at the request of the Noteholder Collateral Agent, shall be at the expense of such Pledgor, and neither the Noteholder Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required under any Notes Document to reimburse any Pledgor therefor except as expressly provided therein. In addition, each Pledgor agrees to pay or reimburse upon demand (a) the Noteholder Collateral Agent and each Related Person thereof for all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by each of them, in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Notes Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and administration of any transaction contemplated therein, in each case including Attorney Costs to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, (b) the Noteholder Collateral Agent and each Related Person thereof for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by each of them in connection with internal audit reviews, field examinations and examinations of Collateral (which shall be reimbursed, in addition to the out of pocket costs and expenses of such examiners, at the per diem rate per individual charged by the Noteholder Collateral Agent for its examiners) and (c) the Noteholder Collateral Agent and each Related Person thereof for all costs and expenses incurred by each of them in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the Notes Obligations in the nature of a “work out,” (ii) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Notes Document, any Notes Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (iii) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Pledgor, Notes Document, or Notes Obligation (or the response to and preparation for any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto), including Attorney Costs.

SECTION 11.6 Modification in Writing. Subject to any additional restrictions in the Intercreditor Agreement, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and unless in writing and signed by the Noteholder Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof shall, in each case, be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. This Section 11.6 shall not limit the provisions set forth in Section 7.07 of the Indenture.

SECTION 11.7 Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Indenture, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Indenture, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Company set forth in the Indenture and as to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Indenture, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.7.
