The relevant Grantor will advise the Administrative Agent in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, will furnish to the Administrative Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars and other documents incident thereto as the Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably request, and will indemnify the Administrative Agent and all others participating in the distribution of such Pledged Equity Interests against all claims, losses, damages or liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by an untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Grantor by the Administrative Agent expressly for use therein.

Section 6.11 Sale of Pledged Equity Interests in Connection with Enforcement. If at any time when the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Pledged Equity Interests pursuant to Section 8.01, such Pledged Equity Interests or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities Act, as then in effect, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, sell such Pledged Equity Interests or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be effected without such registration, provided that at least ten (10) days’ notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the relevant Grantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, (a) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Equity Interests or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (b) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale and (c) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Pledged Equity Interests or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Administrative Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability to any Grantor for selling all or any part of the Pledged Equity Interests at a price which the Administrative Agent may in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until the registration as aforesaid.

(b) instruct the obligor or obligors on any Account Receivable, agreement, instrument or other obligation (including, without limitation, account debtors) constituting the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such Account Receivable, agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Administrative Agent and/or directly to a lockbox under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent;

(f) pay and discharge taxes, Liens or claims on or against any of the Collateral;

(g) pay, perform or satisfy, or cause to be paid, performed or satisfied, for the benefit of any Grantor, any of the obligations, terms, covenants, provisions or conditions to be paid, observed, performed or satisfied by such Grantor under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to its Collateral, all in accordance with the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions thereof, as and to the extent that such Grantor fails or refuses to perform or satisfy the same;

(h) enter into any extension of, or any other agreement in any way relating to, any of the Collateral;

(i) make any compromise or settlement the Administrative Agent reasonably deems desirable or necessary with respect to any of the Collateral; and/or

(j) take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing such Grantor or any other Person in possession thereof in writing to deliver the same to the Administrative Agent at any place or places designated by the Administrative Agent, in which event such Grantor shall at its own expense:

(i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Administrative Agent and delivered to the Administrative Agent,

(ii) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Administrative Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 8.02, and

(iii) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in substantially the same condition prior to such action;

it being understood that such Grantor’s obligation to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by such Grantor of said obligation.

Section 8.02 Disposition of the Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any Collateral repossessed by the Administrative Agent under or pursuant to Section 8.01 and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Administrative Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale of the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Administrative Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Administrative Agent or after any overhaul or repair which the Administrative Agent shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Except in the case of any Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, (a) in the case of any such disposition which shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such requirements, such sale shall be made upon not less than ten (10) days’ written notice to such Grantor specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the ten (10) days after the giving of such notice, to the right of the relevant Grantor or any nominee of the relevant Grantor to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified, and (b) in the case of any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by such requirements, such sale shall be made upon not less than ten (10) days’ written notice to the relevant Grantor specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable requirements of law, shall be by public auction (which may, at the Administrative Agent’s sole option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction not less than ten (10) days prior thereto in two newspapers in general circulation in the city where such Collateral is located. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors (or certain of them) may bid for and become the purchaser (by bidding in Secured Obligations or otherwise) of the Collateral or any item thereof offered for sale in accordance with this Section without accountability to the relevant Grantor (except to the extent of surplus money received as provided in Section 8.05). Unless so obligated under mandatory requirements of applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall not make dispositions of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the Grantor as hereinabove specified. The Administrative Agent need give the relevant Grantor only such notice of disposition as the Administrative Agent shall deem to be reasonably practicable in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law.

Section 8.03 Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Article VIII at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantor) to use, assign or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property of such Grantor, now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

Section 8.04 Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Grantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law: (a) all damages occasioned by any taking of possession of the Collateral as permitted hereunder except any damages which are the direct result of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; (b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder; and (c) all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof, and each Grantor, for itself and all who may claim under it, insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. 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 relevant Grantor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the relevant 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 and under the relevant Grantor.

Section 8.05 Application of Proceeds. All Collateral and proceeds of Collateral obtained and realized by the Administrative Agent in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement pursuant to this Article VIII shall be applied as follows:

(i) first, to the payment to the Administrative Agent, for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement; and

(ii) second, to the extent remaining after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i) and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.09 hereof, to the relevant Grantor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such payment.

Section 8.06 Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Administrative Agent shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given under this Agreement, any Designated Hedge Document or the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Administrative Agent. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or partial or single exercise thereof, and no renewal or extension of any of the Secured Obligations, shall impair or constitute a waiver of any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. No notice to or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Administrative Agent may recover reasonable, actual expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the amounts thereof shall be included in such judgment.

Section 8.07 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, then and in every such case the relevant Grantor, the Administrative Agent and each holder of any of the Secured Obligations shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral subject to the security interest created under this Agreement, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Administrative Agent shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 8.08 Purchasers of Collateral. Upon any sale of any of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Administrative Agent or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Administrative Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.
