(h)                                 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all rights of such Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 6.08(f)(i) hereof and to receive the payments pursuant to Section 6.08(f)(ii) hereof shall cease, and thereupon the Agent shall be entitled to exercise all voting power with respect to the Pledged Securities and to receive and retain, as additional collateral hereunder, any and all such payments any time declared or paid upon any of the Pledged Securities during such an Event of Default and otherwise to act with respect to the Pledged Securities as outright owner thereof.

(i)                                     At any time and from time to time during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to Applicable Law, the Agent may cause all or any of the Pledged Securities to be transferred to or registered in its name or the name of its nominee or nominees.

(j)                                    Without the prior written consent of the Agent, such Grantor will not (i) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof or any interest therein (except pursuant to a transaction not prohibited by the Credit Agreement); (ii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for the Security Interests created by this Agreement and except for Permitted Liens; or (iii) enter into any agreement or undertaking expressly restricting the foreclosure of the Agent’s Security Interest in any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof or any interest therein.

(k)                                 In the case of each Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Securities issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it, (ii) it will notify the Agent promptly in writing of the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 6.08(e) or Section 6.08(g) with respect to the Pledged Securities issued by it, and (iii) the terms of Section 12.04(c) shall apply to it, mutatis

11

mutandis, with respect to all actions that may be required of it with respect to the Pledged Securities issued by it.  Each Grantor which is an Issuer consents to the grant of a Security Interest in capital stock or other equity interests of such Issuer and the exercise of rights by the Agent in respect of such capital stock or other equity interests, including (to the extent permitted hereunder) the foreclosure thereon, and the Agent, its nominee or transferee becoming a partner or member of any such Issuer that is a partnership or limited liability company.

(l)                                     If the organizational documents of any Issuer of Pledged Securities restrict the transfer of such Pledged Securities, each such Issuer shall deliver to the Agent all consents required to authorize the transfer of such Pledged Securities to the Agent or its nominee, or to a third-party transferee upon the exercise by the Agent of it rights and remedies hereunder.

6.09.                     Reserved.

6.10.                     Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.  If such Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire interests in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record,” as that term is defined in Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the request of the Agent, shall take such action as the Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Agent control, under Section 9-105 of the UCC, of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record.  The Agent agrees with such Grantor that the Agent shall arrange, pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Agent’s loss of control, for such Grantor 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, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Grantor with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

(a)                                 Except in any respect that would not materially impair the right, power, authority and ability of any Grantor to use its intellectual property (taken as a whole) as necessary or convenient for the profitable conduct of their businesses and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

(i)                                     Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will continue to use each material Trademark on each and every trademark class of goods in the ordinary course of business in order to maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use in any class of goods for which registration was obtained, maintain in the ordinary course of business the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark and take all necessary steps to ensure that all licensed users of such Trademark maintain as in the past such quality, (C) use such Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable Requirements of Law, (D) not adopt or use any ▇▇▇▇ which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark unless the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, shall obtain a perfected security interest in such ▇▇▇▇ pursuant to this Agreement and the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, and (E) not (and not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such Trademark may become invalidated or impaired in any way.

(iv)                              Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act that knowingly uses any material Intellectual Property to infringe the intellectual property rights of any other Person.

(v)                                 Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will use proper statutory notice in connection with the use of each material Patent, Trademark and Copyright included in the Intellectual Property.

13

or abandon any right to file an application for letters patent, trademark, or copyright, unless such Grantor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business and that the loss thereof could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(viii)                        In the event that any material Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall (A) take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (B) if such infringement, misappropriation or dilution has or would reasonably be expected to have a material negative effect on revenue, promptly notify the Agent after it learns thereof and ▇▇▇ for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, seek injunctive relief where appropriate and recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution.

(ix)                              Such Grantor will do all things that are necessary and proper within such Grantor’s power and control to keep each license of Intellectual Property held by such Grantor as licensee or licensor in full force and effect except to the extent that (A) such Grantor has reasonably determined that the failure to keep any such license in full force and effect could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (B) any such license would expire by its terms or is terminable at will by a Person other than Grantor.

14

(d)                                 Such Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership interest in any item of Intellectual Property which is not now a part of the Intellectual Property Collateral (the “After-Acquired Intellectual Property”), (i) the provisions of Section 2 shall automatically apply thereto; (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property, and in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill of the business connected therewith or symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the Collateral; and (iii) within 45 days of the end of the calendar quarter in which such acquisition occurs, it shall provide the Agent with an amended Perfection Certificate and amended schedules to the applicable Intellectual Property Security Agreement reflecting the acquisition of such After-Acquired Intellectual Property.  Such Grantor authorizes the Agent to modify this Agreement by amending the Perfection Certificate and to modify the schedules to the applicable Intellectual Property Security Agreement if such Grantor fails to provide the Agent with satisfactory amended schedules hereto or thereto within the time period required hereunder (and will cooperate with the Agent in effecting any such amendment) to include any After-Acquired Intellectual Property which becomes part of the Intellectual Property Collateral under this Section, and to record any such modified agreement with the PTO, the Copyright Office, or any other applicable Governmental Authority.

(e)                                  Such Grantor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from the use of the Intellectual Property and hereby indemnifies and holds the Secured Creditors harmless from and against any claim, suit, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of any alleged defect in any product manufactured, promoted or sold by such Grantor (or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof) in connection with such Intellectual Property or out of the manufacture, promotion, labeling, sale or advertisement of any such product by such Grantor (or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof), except for any claim, suit, loss, damage or expense arising solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Secured Creditor as finally determined in a non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(f)                                   Such Grantor agrees to execute one or more applicable Intellectual Property Security Agreements with respect to its Intellectual Property in order to record the Security Interest granted herein to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors with the PTO, the Copyright Office, and any other applicable Governmental Authority within the time period set forth in Section 6.7 of the Credit Agreement.

6.14.                     Maintenance of Collateral; Compliance with Laws.  Such Grantor shall keep the Collateral provided by it in good order and repair and shall not use the same in violation of any law to the extent that such violation could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

15

6.18.                     Other Actions as to any and all Collateral.  Such Grantor further agrees to take any other action reasonably requested by the Agent to insure the attachment, perfection and first priority (subject to Permitted Liens) of, and the ability of the Agent to enforce, the Security Interest in any and all of the Collateral provided by such Grantor including, without limitation, (a) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the UCC, to the extent, if any, that such Grantor’s signature thereon is required therefor; (b) causing the Agent’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the Agent to enforce, the Security Interest in such Collateral; (c) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States of America as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to the attachment, perfection or priority of, or the ability of the Agent to enforce, the Security Interest in such Collateral; (d) obtaining governmental and other third-party consents and approvals, including without limitation any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on such Collateral; (e) obtaining waivers from mortgagees, bailees, landlords and any other person who has possession of or any interest in any Collateral or any real property on which any such Collateral may be located, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent; (f) providing to the Agent “control” over such Collateral, to the extent that perfection can only be achieved under the UCC by control or where obtaining perfection by control provides more protection to the Secured Creditors that perfection by filing a financing statement; and (g) taking all actions required by the UCC or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction; provided, however, that nothing contained in clause (d) or (e) shall require such Grantor to pay any consideration (other than any governmental application, processing, filing or recording fees) in order to obtain any consent or waiver referred to in such clauses.

16

8.02.                     Agent’s Obligations and Duties.

(a)                                 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each contract or agreement comprised in the Collateral provided by it to be observed or performed by such Grantor thereunder.  Neither the Agent nor any other Secured Creditor shall have any obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Agent or any other Secured Creditor of any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Agent or any other Secured Creditor be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Agent or any other Secured Creditor in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Agent or any other Secured Creditor or to which the Agent or any other Secured Creditor may be entitled at any time or times.

(b)                                 The Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the NYUCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the Agent deals with similar property for its own account.

(c)                                  Neither the Agent, nor any other Secured Creditor nor any of their in-fact or affiliates shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.  The powers conferred on the Secured Creditors hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Creditors’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon any Secured Creditor to exercise any such powers.  The Secured Creditors shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except to the extent that any such act or failure to act is found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from their respective gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)                                 Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Agent and the other Secured Creditors, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Agent and the Grantors, the Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Creditors with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

8.03.                     Duties as to Pledged Securities.

(a)                                 With respect to any calls, conversions, exchanges, redemptions, offers, tenders or similar matters relating to any such Pledged Securities (herein called “Events”), any duty in connection therewith imposed on the Agent by Applicable Law shall be fully satisfied if:

17

(i)                                     the Agent exercises reasonable care to ascertain the occurrence and to give reasonable notice to the applicable Grantor of any Events applicable to any Pledged Securities that are registered and held in the name of Agent or its nominee;

(ii)                                  the Agent gives the applicable Grantor reasonable notice of the occurrence of any Events of which the Agent has received actual knowledge, which Events are applicable to any securities that are in bearer form or are not registered and held in the name of the Agent or its nominee (each Grantor agreeing to give the Agent reasonable notice of the occurrence of any Events of which such Grantor has knowledge, which Events are applicable to any securities in the possession of the Agent); and

(iii)                               the Agent endeavors to take such action with respect to any of the Events as the applicable Grantor may reasonably and specifically request in writing in sufficient time for such action to be evaluated and taken or, if the Agent reasonably believes that the action requested would adversely affect the value of the Pledged Securities as collateral or the collection of the Obligations, or would otherwise prejudice the interests of any Secured Creditor, the Agent gives reasonable notice to such Grantor that any such requested action will not be taken and, if the Agent makes such determination or if such Grantor fails to make such timely request, the Agent takes such other action as it reasonably deems advisable in the circumstances.

(b)                                 Except as hereinabove specifically set forth, neither the Agent nor any other Secured Creditor shall have any further obligation to ascertain the occurrence of, or to notify any Grantor with respect to, any Events and shall not be deemed to assume any such further obligation as a result of the establishment by the Agent or any other Secured Creditor of any internal procedures with respect to any securities in its possession, nor shall the Agent or any other Secured Creditor be deemed to assume any other responsibility for, or obligation or duty with respect to, any Pledged Securities or its use of any nature or kind, or any matter or proceedings arising out of or relating thereto, including, without limitation, any obligation or duty to take any action to collect, preserve or protect its or any Grantor’s rights in the Pledged Securities or against any prior parties thereto, but the same shall be at such Grantor’s sole risk and responsibility at all times.

(c)                                  Nothing contained in this Section 8.03 shall be deemed to create any obligation in respect of Events on the Agent, the purpose of this Section 8.03 being solely to provide standards, in the event that Applicable Law imposes any obligations on the Agent as to Events.

Section 9.                                           SECURITIES AND DEPOSITS.  Without limitation of Section 6.08, but subject to Section 6.08(i), the Agent may at any time at its option, transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral, and, subject to Section 6.08(f)(ii), receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or apply it to the Obligations.  The Agent may after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it deems desirable with respect to the Collateral.  Regardless of the adequacy of Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Agent or any other Secured Creditor to any Grantor may at any time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations whether or not due and owing after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

Section 10.                                    NOTIFICATION TO ACCOUNT DEBTORS AND OTHER PERSONS OBLIGATED ON COLLATERAL.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor shall, at the request of the Agent, notify account debtors and other persons obligated on any of the

18

Collateral of such Grantor of the Security Interest in any account, chattel paper, General Intangible, instrument or other claims constituting Collateral that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Agent or to any financial institution designated by the Agent as the Agent’s agent therefor, and the Agent may itself, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to or demand upon any Grantor, so notify account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral.  After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, each Grantor shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, General Intangibles, instruments and other claims constituting Collateral received by the Grantor as trustee for the Secured Creditors without commingling the same with other funds of the Grantor and shall turn the same over to the Agent in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments.  The Agent shall have no liability or responsibility to any Grantor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance.  Without limitation of the foregoing, during the continuation of an Event of Default (1) the Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make test verifications of the accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and the Grantors shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Agent may require in connection with such test verifications, and (2) the Agent in its own name or in the name of others may communicate with account debtors on the accounts to verify with them to the Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any accounts.  The Agent may apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other claims constituting Collateral received by the Agent or any other Secured Creditor to the Obligations or hold such proceeds as additional Collateral, at the option of the Agent.  The provisions of Section 9-209 of the NYUCC shall not apply to any account, chattel paper or payment intangible as to which notification of assignment has been sent to the account debtor or other person obligation on the Collateral, whether under this Section 10, Section 11 or Section 12.

Section 11.                                    POWER OF ATTORNEY.

11.01.              Appointment and Powers of Agent.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(b)                                 in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and record or have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Agent may request to evidence the Security Interest in such Intellectual Property, and the goodwill and General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(c)                                  pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or provide any insurance and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(d)                                 execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 12, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral;

(e)                                  exercise all rights of such Grantor as owner of the Pledged Securities or as party to any partnership, limited liability company or similar agreement, including, without limitation, the right to sign any and all amendments, instruments, certificates, proxies, and other writings and exercise all voting and consent rights with respect to the Pledged Securities;

(f)                                   (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Agent or as the Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (3) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Agent may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains) throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Security Interest therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do; and

(g)                                  to the extent that such Grantor’s authorization given in Section 3 is not sufficient, to file such financing statements or similar documents under the laws of any jurisdiction with respect hereto, with or without such Grantor’s signature, or a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing statement or such other document, as the Agent may deem appropriate and to execute in such Grantor’s name such financing statements, other such documents and amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require such Grantor’s signature.

Anything in this Section 11.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 11.01 (other than under paragraph (g) of this Section 11.01) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

11.02.              Failure of Grantor to Perform.  If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

20

11.03.              Expenses of Attorney-in-Fact.  The expenses of the Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 11, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, from the date of payment by the Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Agent on demand.

11.04.              Ratification by Grantor.  To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Section 11.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

11.05.              No Duty on Agent.  The powers conferred on the Agent, its directors, officers and agents pursuant to this Section 11 are solely to protect the Secured Creditors’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon any of them to exercise any such powers.  Each Secured Creditor shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act, except for such Secured Creditor’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 12.                                    REMEDIES.

12.01.              Default.  Grantors shall be in default under this Agreement (a) whenever any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and each of the Grantors shall thereupon be in default hereunder without regard to whether or to what degree any Grantor individually may have caused, participated in, or had any knowledge of the occurrence of such Event of Default) and (b) at all times after any Loan has become due and payable and remains unpaid beyond any applicable grace period, whether at maturity, upon acceleration pursuant to the Credit Agreement or otherwise.

12.02.              Remedies Upon Default.  At any time when any Grantor is in default under this Agreement as set forth in Section 12.01, the Agent may exercise and enforce, in any order, (i) each and all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party upon default under the NYUCC or any other applicable UCC or other Applicable Law, (ii) each and all of the rights and remedies available to it under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iii) each and all of the following rights and remedies:

(a)                                 Collection Rights.  Without notice to any Grantor or any other Loan Party, the Agent may notify any or all account debtors and obligors on any accounts, instruments, general intangibles or other claims constituting Collateral of the Secured Creditors’ Security Interests therein and may direct, demand and enforce payment thereof directly to the Agent.  The provisions of Section 9-209 of the NYUCC shall not apply to any account, chattel paper or payment intangible as to which notification of assignment has been sent to the account debtor.

(b)                                 Taking Possession.  The Agent may (i) enter upon any and all premises owned or leased by any Grantor where Collateral is located (or believed by the Agent to be located), with or (to the fullest extent permitted by law) without judicial process and without any obligation to pay rent; (ii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Agent deems appropriate; (iii) take possession of any Grantor’s premises or place custodians in exclusive control thereof, remain on such premises and use the same and any Grantor’s equipment for the purpose of completing any work in process or otherwise preparing the Collateral for sale or selling or otherwise transferring the Collateral;

21

(iv) take possession of all items of Collateral that are not then in its possession, either upon such premises or by removal from such premises; and (v) require any Grantor or the Person in possession thereof to deliver such Collateral to the Agent at one or more locations designated by the Agent and reasonably convenient to it and each Grantor owning an interest therein.

(c)                                  Foreclosure.  The Agent may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of or transfer any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public sale or in private sale or transaction, on any exchange or market or at the Agent’s offices or on any Grantor’s premises or at any other location, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and may enter into all contracts necessary or appropriate in connection therewith, without any notice whatsoever unless required by law.  Where permitted by law, one or more of the Secured Creditors may be the purchasers at any such sale and in such event, the Secured Creditors bidding at such sale may bid part or all of the Obligations owing to them without necessity of any cash payment on account of the purchase price, even though any other purchaser at such sale is required to bid a purchase price payable in cash.  Each Grantor agrees that at least ten (10) calendar days’ written notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral owned by it (or, to the extent such Grantor is entitled by law to notice thereof, the public sale of any other Collateral), or the time after which any private sale of Collateral owned by it (or, to the extent such Grantor is entitled by law to notice thereof, the private sale of any other Collateral) is to be made, shall be commercially reasonable.  For purposes of such notice, to the fullest extent permitted by law (i) each Grantor waives notice of any sale of Collateral owned by any other Grantor and (ii) each Grantor agrees that notice given to the Borrower shall constitute notice given to such Grantor.  The giving of notice of any such sale or other disposition shall not obligate the Agent to proceed with the sale or disposition, and any such sale or disposition may be postponed or adjourned from time to time, without further notice.

(d)                                 Voting Rights.  The Agent may exercise any and all rights of any Grantor as the owner of any Pledged Securities, including, without limitation, voting rights, rights to give or withhold consent under any agreement under which any Pledged Security is issued and all other rights referred to in Section 11.01(e).

(e)                                  Use of Intellectual Property.  The Agent may, on a royalty-free basis, use and license use of any Trademark, Trade Secret, trade name, trade style, Copyright, Patent, technical knowledge or process or other Intellectual Property owned, held or used by any Grantor in respect of any Collateral as to which any right or remedy of the Agent is exercised or enforced.  In addition, the Agent may exercise and enforce such rights and remedies for collection as may be available to it by law or agreement.  Each Grantor grants a license pursuant to Section 12.03 in connection therewith.

(f)                                   Use of Collateral.  With respect to any Collateral in the possession of the Agent or any other Secured Creditor, or a bailee or other third party holding on its behalf, the Agent or such other Secured Creditor may use or operate such Collateral in any manner and to the extent determined by the Agent or such Secured Creditor.

(g)                                  Appointment of Receiver.  Without limiting any other right or remedy of the Agent in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Agent may by instrument in writing appoint any person as a receiver of all or any part of the Collateral of each applicable Grantor.  The Agent may from time to time remove or replace a receiver, or make application to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver.  Any receiver appointed by the Agent shall (for purposes relating to responsibility for the receiver’s acts or omissions) be considered to be the agent of each applicable Grantor.  The Agent may from time to time fix the

22

receiver’s remuneration and the Grantors shall pay the amount of such remuneration to the Agent.  The Agent shall not be liable to any Grantor or any other person in connection with appointing or not appointing a receiver or in connection with the receiver’s actions or omissions.

12.03.              Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property.  For the purpose of enabling the Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 12 at such time as the Agent shall be lawfully and otherwise entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, license or sub-license any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Grantor to the extent that such Grantor is not legally or contractually prohibited from doing so (Grantor agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts not to enter into, after the Closing Date, any such contractual prohibition), and wherever the same may be located, and 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 software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.  The use of such license by the Agent shall be exercised, at the Agent’s option, only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sub-license or other transaction entered into by the Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure, waiver or other termination of an Event of Default.

12.04.              Waivers by Grantors.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives (a) all rights of redemption from any foreclosure sale; (b) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, exemption and moratorium laws; (c) to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights to notice or a hearing prior to the exercise by the Agent of its right to take possession of any Collateral, whether by self-help or by legal process and any right to object to the Agent taking possession of any Collateral by self-help; and (d) if the Agent seeks to obtain possession of any Collateral by replevin, claim and delivery, attachment, levy or other legal process, (i) any notice or demand for possession prior to the commencement of legal proceedings, (ii) the posting of any bond or security in any such proceedings, and (iii) any requirement that the Agent retain possession and not dispose of any Collateral until after a trial or final judgment in such proceedings.

12.05.              Application of Proceeds.  Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds received by the Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Agent, be held by the Agent as Collateral for, or then, or at any other time thereafter, applied in full or in part by the Agent against, the Obligations in the following order of priority:

FIRST: to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder and all reasonable advances made by the Agent hereunder for the account of any Grantor, and to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, all in accordance with Section 18.09;

SECOND: to the payment of all other Obligations (for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof) then due and payable in the manner and order provided in the Credit Agreement;

23

THIRD: to any payments required by Section 9-608(a)(1)(C) or 9-615(a)(3) of the NYUCC or in accordance with other Applicable Law; and

FOURTH, to the payment to or upon the order of the Grantor entitled thereto, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.

12.06.              Surplus; Deficiency.  Any surplus proceeds of any sale or other disposition by the Agent of any Collateral remaining after discharge of the Credit Agreement and after all Obligations are Paid in Full and in cash and any payments required by Section 9-608(a)(1)(C) or 9-615(a)(3) of the NYUCC are Paid in Full shall be paid over to the Grantor entitled thereto, or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, but prior to termination and discharge of the Credit Agreement, such surplus proceeds may be retained by the Agent and held as Collateral until termination and discharge of the Credit Agreement.  The Borrower and each other Grantor shall be and remain liable for any deficiency.

12.07.              Information Related to the Collateral.  If, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent determines to sell or otherwise transfer any Collateral, each Grantor shall, and shall cause any Person controlled by it to, furnish to the Agent all information the Agent may request that pertains or could pertain to the value or condition of the Collateral or that would or might facilitate such sale or transfer.  The Agent shall have the right, notwithstanding any confidentiality obligation or agreement otherwise binding upon it, freely (but not in violation of any law, including federal securities laws) to disclose such information, and any and all other information (including confidential information) pertaining in any manner to the Collateral or the assets, liabilities, results of operations, business or prospects of any Secured Creditors, freely to any Person that the Agent in good faith believes to be a potential or prospective purchaser in such sale or transfer, without liability for any disclosure, dissemination or use that may be made as to such information by any such Person.

12.08.              Sale Exempt from Registration.  The Agent shall be entitled at any such sale or other transfer, if it deems it advisable to do so, to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will provide assurances satisfactory to the Agent that the Collateral may be offered and sold to them without registration under the Securities Act, and without registration or qualification under any other applicable state or federal law.  Upon the consummation of any such sale, the Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold.  The Agent may solicit offers to buy the Collateral, or any part of it, from a limited number of investors deemed by the Agent, in its good faith judgment or in good faith reliance upon advice of its counsel, to meet the requirements to purchase securities under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act (or any other regulation of similar import).  If the Agent solicits such offers from such investors, then the acceptance by the Agent of the highest offer obtained from any of them shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable method of disposition of the Collateral.  Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Securities conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Pledged Securities under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private placement may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a sale without such restrictions (including an offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances and the registration rights granted to Agent by such Grantor pursuant hereto, each Grantor agrees that any such

24

private placement shall not be deemed, in and of itself, to be commercially unreasonable solely because it is a private placement and that Agent shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any Pledged Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it.  If Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Securities, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Securities to be sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Agent all such information as Agent may request in order to determine the amount of Pledged Securities which may be sold by Agent in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

12.09.              Rights and Remedies Cumulative.  The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers or privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement.  The Agent may exercise and enforce each right and remedy available to it either before or concurrently with or after, and independently of, any exercise or enforcement of any other right or remedy of the Agent or any other Secured Creditor against any Person or property.  All such rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and no one of them shall exclude or preclude any other.

12.10.              No Direct Enforcement by Secured Creditors.  The Agent may freely exercise and enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors.  Except to the extent the Agent may consent in writing, no Secured Creditor, other than the Agent, shall have any independent right to collect, take possession of, foreclose against or otherwise enforce the Security Interests granted hereby.

Section 13.                                    STANDARDS FOR EXERCISING REMEDIES.

13.01.              Commercially Reasonable Manner.  To the extent that Applicable Law imposes duties on the Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Agent (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition or to postpone any such disposition pending any such preparation or processing; (b) to fail to obtain third-party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third-party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of; (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove any Lien on or any adverse claims against Collateral; (d) 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; (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature; (f) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral; (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature; (h) 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; (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets; (j) to disclaim disposition warranties; (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral; or (l) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, to

25

obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 13 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in the Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 13.  Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by Applicable Law in the absence of this Section 13.

13.02.              Standard of Care.  The powers conferred on the Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  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 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 to protect, preserve, vote or exercise any rights pertaining to any Collateral.  The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Agent accords its own property or if it selects, with reasonable care, a custodian to hold such Collateral on its behalf.

Section 14.                                    WAIVERS BY GRANTOR; OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE.

14.01.              Specific Waivers.  Each Grantor waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description other than those required pursuant to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents to which such Grantor is a party.

14.02.              Obligations Absolute.  All rights of the Agent hereunder, the Security Interest and all obligations of the Grantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument; (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from or any acceptance of partial payment thereon and or settlement, compromise or adjustment of any Secured Obligation or of any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations; or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement other than the prompt and complete performance and payment in full of the Obligations.

Section 15.                                    MARSHALLING.  The Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the 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 hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.  To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Agent’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or

26

evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the 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.

Section 16.                                    INTEREST.  Until paid, all amounts due and payable by each Grantor hereunder shall be a debt secured by the Collateral and shall bear, whether before or after judgment, interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, from the date of payment by the Agent to the date reimbursed by such Grantor, and such interest shall be payable by such Grantor to the Agent on demand.

Section 17.                                    REINSTATEMENT.  The obligations of each Grantor pursuant to this Agreement shall continue to be effective or automatically be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or otherwise must be restored or returned by the Agent or any other Secured Creditor upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of such Grantor or any other obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 18.                                    MISCELLANEOUS.

27

18.03.              WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ANY NOTE, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY LENDING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE FOREGOING, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

(a)                                 No failure or delay of the Agent in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Secured Creditors hereunder and of the Secured Creditors under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provisions of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle such or any other Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

29

of such Grantor to such Secured Creditor hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Secured Creditor against such Grantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, as such Secured Creditor may elect, whether or not any Secured Creditor has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured.  Each Secured Creditor shall notify such Grantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by such Secured Creditor of the proceeds thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  The rights of each Secured Creditor under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which such Secured Creditor may have.

18.13.              Integration.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

(c)                                  no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Secured Creditors or among the Grantors and the Secured Creditors.

18.16.              Releases.

(a)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any disposition of Property permitted by the Loan Documents, the Agent shall (without notice to or vote or consent of any other Secured Creditor) take such actions as shall be required to release the Security Interest in any Collateral being disposed of in such disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral being disposed of in such disposition and the terms of such disposition in reasonable detail, including the date thereof, the price thereof and any estimated expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds of such disposition will be applied in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

18.17.              Intercompany Debt.

(a)                                 Each Grantor hereby agrees that any intercompany Debt or other intercompany payables or receivables directly or indirectly made by or owed to such Grantor by any other Grantor (collectively, “Intercompany Debt”), of whatever nature at any time outstanding shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations.  Each Grantor hereby agrees that following a single written notice to the Borrower from Agent, such Grantor will not, while any Event of Default is continuing, accept any payment, including by offset, on any Intercompany Debt until all Obligations have been Paid in Full and the Commitments have been terminated, in each case, except with the prior written consent of the Agent.

(b)                                 In the event that any payment on any Intercompany Debt shall be received by a Grantor other than as permitted by this Section 18.17 before all Obligations have been Paid in Full and the Commitments have been terminated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, such Grantor shall receive such payments and hold the same in trust for, segregate the same from its own assets and shall immediately pay over to, the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the other Secured Creditors all such sums to the extent necessary so that the Agent and the other Secured Creditors shall have been Paid in Full, in cash, all Obligations owed or which may become owing.
