SECTION 5.7.                                               No Conflicts, Consents, etc.  No consent of any party (including, without limitation, equity holders or creditors of such Grantor) and no consent, authorization, approval, license or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or other Person is required (a) for the pledge by such Grantor of the Collateral pledged by it pursuant to this Agreement or for the execution, delivery or performance hereof by such Grantor, (b) for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the voting or other rights provided for in this Agreement or (c) for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement except, in each case, for such consents which have been obtained prior to the date hereof.  Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other Person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as commercially practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

SECTION 5.9.                                               Insurance.  Each Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all property insurance policies covering Collateral located in the U.S. and all U.S. general liability insurance policies of the Grantors to name the Collateral Agent as additional insured or loss payee, as applicable and, once obtained, the Grantors shall deliver to the Collateral Agent the original certificates of insurance evidencing that such U.S. property and general liability insurance policies of the Grantors that name the Collateral Agent as additional insured or loss payee, as applicable are in force.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact), exercisable only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of the Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto.  In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required hereby or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Default or Event of Default, in its sole discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Collateral Agent deems advisable.  All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this SECTION 5.9, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.

SECTION 5.10.                                        Payment of Taxes; Compliance with Laws; Contested Liens; Claims.  Each Grantor represents and warrants that all Claims imposed upon or assessed against the Collateral have been paid and discharged except to the extent such Claims constitute a Lien not yet due and payable or a Permitted Encumbrance.  Each Grantor shall comply with all applicable Laws relating to the Collateral the failure to comply with which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Grantor may at its own expense contest the validity, amount or applicability of any Claims so long as the contest thereof shall be conducted in accordance with, and permitted pursuant to the provisions of, the Indenture and each Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this SECTION 5.10, no contest of any such obligation may be pursued by such Grantor if such contest would expose the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to (a) any possible criminal liability or (b) any additional civil liability for failure to comply with such obligations unless such Grantor shall have furnished a bond or other security therefor satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, or such other Secured Party, as the case may be.

SECTION 5.11.                                        Access to Collateral, Books and Records; Other Information.  Such Grantor shall, at any and all times, within a reasonable time after written request by the Collateral Agent, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Collateral Agent, in such manner and in

SECTION 6.4.                                               Defaults, Etc.  Such Grantor is not in default in the payment of any portion of any mandatory capital contribution, if any, required to be made under any agreement to which such Grantor is a party relating to the Pledged Securities pledged by it.  No Securities Collateral pledged by such Grantor is subject to any defense, offset or counterclaim, nor

REMEDIES

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

(a)                                 Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from any Grantor 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 Grantor’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 Grantor;

(b)                                 Demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, 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 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 Grantor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Grantor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent;

(c)                                  Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Grantor 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 Grantor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Grantor shall at its own expense:  (i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent; (ii) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the 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 Grantor’s obligation to deliver the Collateral as contemplated in this SECTION 9.1 is of the essence hereof.  Upon application

27

to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Grantor of such obligation;

(e)                                  Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Grantor constituting Collateral (including Trust Monies in the Collateral Account) for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in ARTICLE X hereof;

(f)                                   Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in ARTICLE X hereof;

(g)                                  Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral, including, without limitation, 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 under the UCC, and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in SECTION 9.2 hereof, sell, assign 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 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 Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable.  The Collateral Agent or any other Grantor 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 Secured 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 Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by 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.  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.  To the fullest extent permitted by Law, 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, 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 Collateral to more than one offeree.

SECTION 9.2.                                               Notice of Sale.  Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by applicable Law and unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value, or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which event the Collateral Agent shall provide such

28

Grantor such advance notice as may be practicable under the circumstances), ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Grantor 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.  No notification need be given to any Grantor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying (as permitted under Law) any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 9.3.                                               Waiver of Notice and Claims.  Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Grantor would otherwise have under Law, and each Grantor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law: (a) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession; (b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder; and (c) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Law.  The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.  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 Grantor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Grantor 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 Grantor.

SECTION 9.4.                                               Certain Sales of Collateral.

(a)                                 Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the 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 such Governmental Authority.  Each Grantor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the 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 Law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

(b)                                 Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities Laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale 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 Grantor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including, without limitation, 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

29

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 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.

(c)                                  If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Grantor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number of securities included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the 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.

(d)                                 Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this SECTION 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Grantors, that the Collateral Agent and the other Grantors 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 Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 9.5.                                               No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(a)                                 No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the 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 Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by Law.

(b)                                 In the event that the 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 Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Grantors, the 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 Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

ARTICLE X

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

SECTION 10.1.                                        Application of Proceeds.  Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or

SECTION 11.2.                                        Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  If any Grantor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement, in any of the Security Documents or in the Indenture and each Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement or if any warranty on the part of any Grantor contained herein shall be breached, the 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 Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Grantor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Grantor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and each Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement.  Neither the provisions of this SECTION 11.2 nor any action taken by 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 warranty from constituting an Event of Default.  Each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Indenture and each Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement and the other Security Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary 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 Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

35

remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Collateral Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth.  A waiver by Collateral Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which Collateral Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion.  In addition, the Security Interests granted hereunder and the Liens granted under any of the other Security Documents shall terminate and be released, in whole or in part, (i) as to the Notes Obligations, as provided in the Indenture and (ii) as to the Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations under any Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement, as provided in such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement.  Collateral shall be released from the Security Interest under this Agreement and the Lien under any of the other Security Documents as provided in (i) the Indenture with respect to Liens securing the Notes Obligations and (ii) each Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement relating to Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations with respect to Liens securing such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations.

THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND
SECURED PARTY ACKNOWLEDGMENTS(1)

Acknowledgment of Priorities of Security Interests and Liens; Application of Proceeds.

(a)                                 Each of the Secured Parties acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the date, time or creation of any Liens securing any of the Secured Obligations under the Security Agreement or the Security Documents, the Secured Obligations shall be equally and ratably secured by the Liens of the Security Agreement and the Security Documents and all Liens securing any of the Secured Obligations (and any proceeds received from the enforcement of any such Liens) shall be for the equal and ratable benefit of all Secured Parties and shall be applied as provided in clause (c) below.  Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereunder and of the Security Documents, agrees for the benefit of the other Secured Parties that, to the extent any additional or substitute collateral for any of the Secured Obligations is delivered by a Grantor to or for the benefit of any Secured Party, such collateral shall be subject to the provisions of this clause (a).

(b)                                 Each of the Secured Parties hereby agrees not to challenge or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any Security Document (in each case as a whole or any term or provision contained therein) or the validity of any Lien or financing statement in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as provided in the Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, or the relative priority of any such Lien.  Each Secured Party consents to the release of Trust Monies from the Collateral Account in accordance with Article 12 of the Indenture.

(c)                                  Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, 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 Collateral under this Agreement or any other Security Document (excluding funds deposited with the Trustee or any Additional Pari Passu Agent, in such capacities, in connection with any defeasance or discharge of the Indenture or any Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement, which shall be applied as provided therein) shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in the Collateral Account, promptly by the Collateral Agent as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses, liabilities, fees, commissions and taxes paid or payable by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any Security Document including, without limitation, the costs and expenses of

(1)                                 Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Security Agreement, are used herein as therein defined.

the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith;

SECOND, without duplication of amounts applied pursuant to clause FIRST above, to the payment in full in cash, pro rata, based on the amount of Secured Obligations outstanding under the Indenture and each Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement and then due and owing to (i) the Trustee to be applied as provided in the Indenture, and (ii) each Additional Pari Passu Agent to be applied as provided in the applicable Permitted Additional Pari Passu Lien Agreement; and

THIRD, the balance, if any, to such Grantor or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

If, despite the provisions of this Agreement, any Secured Party shall receive any payment or other recovery in excess of its portion of payments on account of the Secured Obligations to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Agreement, such Secured Party shall hold such payment or recovery in trust for the benefit of all Secured Parties for distribution in accordance with this EXHIBIT 4.

Enforcement.

Subject to the Collateral Agent’s rights under SECTION 11.1 of this Agreement, the Required Secured Parties may direct the Collateral Agent in exercising any right or remedy available to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any Security Document.  In the absence of any such instruction, the Collateral Agent may (but shall be under no obligation to) exercise such rights and remedies in any manner that complies with SECTION 11.1 of this Agreement.  No Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) shall have any individual right to pursue any remedies under this Agreement against any Grantor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that (i) any of the Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations is unenforceable under applicable law or are subordinated to any other obligations, (ii) any of the Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations does not have an enforceable security interest in any of the Collateral and/or (iii) any intervening security interest exists securing any other obligations (other than other Secured Obligations) on a basis ranking prior to the security interest of such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations but junior to the security interest of the Notes Obligations (any such condition referred to in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) with respect to any Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations, an “Impairment” of such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations), the results of such Impairment shall be borne solely by the holders of such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations, and the rights of the holders of such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations (including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions in respect of such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations) set forth herein shall be modified to the extent necessary so that the effects of such Impairment are borne solely by the holders of such Permitted Additional Pari Passu Obligations subject to such Impairment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Collateral for which a third party (other than a Secured Party) has a lien or security interest that is junior in priority to the security interest of the holders of the

2

Notes Obligations but senior (as determined by appropriate legal proceedings in the case of any dispute) to the security interest of any other Secured Obligations (such third party, an “Intervening Creditor”), the value of any Collateral or proceeds which are allocated to such Intervening Creditor shall be deducted on a ratable basis solely from the Collateral or proceeds to be distributed in respect of the Secured Obligations with respect to which such Impairment exists.
