​

​

the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement also secures the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by the Grantors, or any of them, to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties or any of them, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable (in whole or in part) as a claim in an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Grantor due to the existence of such Insolvency Proceeding.

Each Grantor acknowledges that value has been given and that the parties hereto have not agreed to postpone the time of attachment of the Security Interest. The Security Interest of each Grantor is intended to attach, as to all of the Collateral, and with respect to any particular item of the Collateral, upon the execution by such Grantor of this Agreement and such Grantor obtaining rights in such item of the Collateral or the power to transfer rights in such item of the Collateral to the Collateral Agent.

Until an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Indenture or any other Note Document, Grantors shall have the right to possession and enjoyment of the Collateral for the purpose of conducting the ordinary course of their respective businesses, subject to and upon the terms hereof and of the Indenture and the other Note Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that record and beneficial ownership of the Pledged Interests, including all voting, consensual, dividend, and distribution rights relating thereto, shall remain in the applicable Grantor until (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) the Collateral Agent has notified the applicable Grantor of the Collateral Agent’s election to exercise such rights with respect to the Pledged Interests pursuant to Section 15.

Except to the extent a security interest in the Collateral cannot be perfected by the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement under the UCC or the delivery of Control Agreements with respect to Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, all filings and other actions necessary to perfect such security interest have been duly taken or will have been taken upon the filing of UCC-1 financing statements under the UCC listing each applicable Grantor, as a debtor, and the Collateral Agent, as secured party, in the jurisdictions listed next to such Grantor’s name on Schedule 4 and containing an adequate description of the Collateral, together with the payment of any associated fees or the delivery of Control Agreements with respect to each of the Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts listed on Schedule 5 (other than Excluded Accounts).

11.Collateral Agent May Perform. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors to the extent required to be reimbursed by the Company under Section 21(b) of this Agreement.

12.Collateral Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent to exercise any such powers. Except for the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its actual 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 any Collateral in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association is entering this Agreement not in its individual capacity, but solely in its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Indenture. The Collateral Agent shall act hereunder and under any Related Collateral Document only in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture and shall be entitled to all of the rights, privileges, immunities and indemnities granted to the Collateral Agent under the Indenture, including without limitation those set forth in Articles 7 and 17 thereof, as if such rights, privileges, immunities and indemnities were expressly set forth herein or therein, as the case may be.

14.Disposition of Pledged Interests by the Collateral Agent. None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the Issue Date are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof are expected to be, registered or qualified under the various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an Event of Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration. Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, the Collateral Agent may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Interests or any part thereof 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 Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Interests to more than one offeree.

▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Other Rights in Respect of Pledged Interests.

(a)Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) the Collateral Agent may, at its option, and with three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to any Grantor including details of the Event of Default, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to the Collateral

The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and shall automatically terminate upon termination of this Agreement.

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

(a)the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Note Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, the Collateral Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except (x) any notice required by this Agreement or the other Note Documents and (y) a notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and 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 one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Collateral, and (ii) without notice except any notice required by this Agreement or the other Note Documents and as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) calendar days’ notice to the applicable 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 notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. 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 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 (A) the internet shall constitute a “place” for purposes of Section 9-610(b) of the UCC, and (B) to the extent notification of sale shall be required by law, notification by mail of the URL where a sale will occur and the time when a sale will commence at least ten days prior to the sale shall constitute a reasonable notification for purposes of Section 9-611(b) of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that any sale of Collateral to a licensor pursuant to the terms of a license agreement between such licensor and a Grantor is sufficient to constitute a commercially reasonable disposition (including as to method, terms, manner, and time) within the meaning of Section 9-610 of the UCC.

(b)the Collateral Agent is hereby granted (to the extent grantable by such Grantor without breaching or violating any agreement) a non-exclusive license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s Intellectual Property, including but not limited to, any labels, Patents, Trademarks (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 Trademarks), trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, and advertising matter, whether owned by any Grantor or

​

with respect to which any Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (including any Intellectual Property License), as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent.

(c)[Reserved].

(d)[Reserved].

(e)Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arise out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Collateral Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by the Collateral Agent.

17.Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of the Collateral Agent as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Collateral Agent, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Collateral Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

18.Application of Proceeds. (a) The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Secured Obligations pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.05 of the Indenture.

19.[Reserved].

20.Marshaling. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
