Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Holder of Secured

Obligations (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent hereby agrees, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon the occurrence of the Release Event, (ii) upon the termination of the all Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations, and Banking Services Obligations and Rate Protection Obligations not yet due and payable), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (iii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Borrower certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted by the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); (iv) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII; (v) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (vi) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, provided that, except as set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Administrative Agent shall not release all or substantially all of the Collateral without the consent of all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(bb) Section 9.01(a) of the Credit Agreement is amended to (1) change fax number for CFO Treasurer to “(▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇” in clause (i) thereof, (2) add the phrase “Attention of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (Telephone No. (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇); and” to the end of clause (iii) thereof and (3) to delete the phrase “Attention of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (Telephone No. (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇); and” appearing in clause (iv) thereof.

Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.
