Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or other Applicable Law. In each case subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default shall include, without limitation, the right (but not the obligation) to take any or all of the following actions at the same or different times:

(a)                 With respect to any Collateral consisting of Accounts, General Intangibles (including Payment Intangibles), Letter-of-Credit Rights, Instruments, Chattel Paper, Documents, and Investment Property, the Collateral Agent may collect the Collateral with or without the taking of possession of any of the Collateral.

(b)                 With respect to any Collateral consisting of Accounts, the Collateral Agent may: (i) demand, collect and receive any amounts relating thereto, as the Collateral Agent may determine; (ii) commence and prosecute any actions in any court for the purposes of collecting any such Accounts and enforcing any other rights in respect thereof; (iii) defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; (iv) receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to any Grantor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to such Accounts or securing or relating to such Accounts, on behalf of and in the name of such Grantor; and (v) sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any such Accounts or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent was the absolute owner thereof for all purposes.

11  

(c)                 With respect to any Collateral consisting of Investment Property, the Collateral Agent may: (i) exercise all rights of any Grantor with respect thereto, including without limitation, the right to exercise all voting and corporate rights at any meeting of the shareholders of the issuer of any Investment Property and to exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any Investment Property as if the Collateral Agent was the absolute owner thereof, including the right to exchange, at its discretion, any and all of any Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the issuer thereof, all without liability; (ii) transfer such Collateral at any time to itself, or to its nominee, and receive the income thereon and hold the same as Collateral hereunder or apply it to the Secured Obligations; and (iii) demand, sue for, collect or make any compromise or settlement it deems desirable. The Grantors recognize that (a) the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Investment Property by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C, §77, (as amended and in effect, the “Securities Act”) or the Securities laws of various states (the “Blue Sky Laws”), but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, (b) that private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Investment Property were sold at public sales, (c) that neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any obligation to delay sale of any of the Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the Investment Property to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act or the Blue Sky Laws, and (d) that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Grantor shall be required to register, or cause the registration of, any Investment Property under the Securities Act or any Blue Sky Laws.

(d)                 With respect to any Collateral consisting of Inventory, Goods, and Equipment, the Collateral Agent may conduct one or more going out of business sales, in the Collateral Agent’s own right or by one or more agents and contractors. Such sale(s) may be conducted upon any premises owned, leased, or occupied by any Grantor. The Collateral Agent and any such agent or contractor, in conjunction with any such sale, may augment the Inventory with other goods (all of which other goods shall remain the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor). Any amounts realized from the sale of such goods which constitute augmentations to the Inventory (net of an allocable share of the costs and expenses incurred in their disposition) shall be the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor and neither any Grantor nor any Person claiming under or in right of any Grantor shall have any interest therein. Each purchaser at any such going out of business sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor.

(e)                 With or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, the Collateral Agent may enter upon, occupy, and use any premises owned or occupied by each Grantor, and may exclude the Grantors from such premises or portion thereof as may have been so entered upon, occupied, or used by the Collateral Agent to the extent the Collateral Agent deems such exclusion reasonably necessary to preserve and protect the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to remove any of the Collateral from any such premises upon the Collateral Agent’s taking possession thereof, and may render any Collateral unusable to the Grantors. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable to any Grantor for use or occupancy by the Collateral Agent of any premises pursuant to this Section 6.01, nor for any charge (such as wages for the Grantors’ employees and utilities) incurred in connection with the Collateral Agent’s exercise of the Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies (as defined herein) hereunder.

12  

(f)                  The Collateral Agent may require any Grantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at the Grantor’s sole risk and expense at a place or places which are reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and such Grantor.

(g)                 Each Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to Applicable Law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor.

(h)                 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 the Grantors such notice as may be practicable under the circumstances), the Collateral Agent shall give the Grantors at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice, by authenticated record, of the date, time and place of any proposed public sale, and of the date after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral may be made. Each Grantor agrees that such written notice shall satisfy all requirements for notice to that Grantor which are imposed under the UCC or other Applicable Law with respect to the exercise of the Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies upon default. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale or other disposition of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement

(i)                   Any public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice of such sale. At any sale or other disposition, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. If any of the Collateral is sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of by the Collateral Agent on credit, the Secured Obligations shall not be deemed to have been reduced as a result thereof unless and until payment in full is received thereon by the Collateral Agent.

(j)                   At any public (or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section 6.01, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor, the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party from any Grantor on account of the Secured Obligations as a credit against the purchase price, and the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor.

(k)                 For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof. The Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full.

13  

(l)                   As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose upon the Collateral and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.

(m)              To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Grantor hereby waives all rights of redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal which such Grantor 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 exercise rights and remedies and sell the Collateral under the Collateral Documents only in accordance with the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and the Indenture.

Section 6.02                  Application of Proceeds.

(a)                 Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and acceleration of the Secured Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof and of the Indenture or any Additional Pari Passu Document, the Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of the Collateral, as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, or any Collateral granted under any other of the Collateral Documents, in the following order or priority:

First: to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, each of their agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.7 of the Indenture and any corresponding provisions of any Additional Pari Passu Document, including payment of all reasonable compensation, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances that may have been made, by the Collateral Agent and the Trustee and the fees, costs and expenses of collection;

Second: to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (the amounts so applied to be distributed to the Trustee or the Additional Senior Class Debt Representative pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts of the Secured Obligations for further distribution in accordance with the Indenture and the Additional Pari Passu Document owed to them on the date of any such distribution; and

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

(b)                 Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, 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 other recovery in trust for the benefit of all Secured Parties hereunder for distribution in accordance with this Section 6.02.

(c)                 In making the determinations and allocations required by this Section 6.02, the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by the Trustee or Additional Senior Class Debt Representative as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Secured Obligations, and the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information, provided that nothing in this sentence shall prevent any Grantor from contesting any amounts claimed by any Secured Party in any information so supplied. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be (subject to any decree of any court of competent jurisdiction) final (absent manifest error), and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by any Additional Senior Class Debt Representative of any amounts distributed to it.

14  

(d)                 Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, the Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement, the Indenture and each Additional Pari Passu Document. Upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the purchase money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale or other disposition shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold or otherwise disposed of 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 Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

ARTICLE 7

Perfection of Security Interest

Section 7.01                  Perfection by Filing. This Agreement constitutes an authenticated record, and each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral, in such filing offices as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably deem necessary, and the Grantors shall pay the Collateral Agent’s reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection therewith. Each Grantor hereby further agrees that a carbon, photographic, or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a Financing Statement and may be filed as a Financing Statement in any and all jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing authorization, each Grantor hereby agrees to prepare and file or caused to be filed, at its own expense, any financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, or any other documents or instruments, relative to all or any part of the Collateral, in such filing offices as are necessary or required in order to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Security Interest in the Collateral, and to deliver to the Collateral Agent a filed stamped copy of each such financing or continuation statement, or amendment thereto, or other such document or instrument.

Section 7.03                  Savings Clause. Nothing contained in this Article 7 shall be construed to narrow the scope of the Collateral Agent’s Security Interest in any of the Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof or to impair or otherwise limit any of the Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies hereunder except (and then only to the extent) as mandated by the UCC.

ARTICLE 8

Section 8.04                  Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Grantors herein and in any other Collateral Document and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Collateral Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents and the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes or any other Secured Obligations, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Indenture or any Additional Pari Passu Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect unless terminated in accordance with Section 8.14 hereof and the Indenture.

(a)                 The rights, remedies, powers, privileges, and discretions of the Collateral Agent hereunder (herein, the “Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies”) shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which it would otherwise have. No delay or omission by the Collateral Agent in exercising or enforcing any of the Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies shall operate as, or constitute, a waiver thereof. No waiver by the Collateral Agent of any Event of Default or of any Default under any other agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other Event of Default or other Default hereunder or under any other agreement. No single or partial exercise of any of the Collateral Agent’s Rights or Remedies, and no express or implied agreement or transaction of whatever nature entered into between the Collateral Agent and any Person, at any time, shall preclude the other or further exercise of the Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies. No waiver by the Collateral Agent of any of the Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies on any one occasion shall be deemed a waiver on any subsequent occasion, nor shall it be deemed a continuing waiver. The Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies may be exercised at such time or times and in such order of preference as the Collateral Agent may determine. The Collateral Agent’s Rights and Remedies may be exercised without resort or regard to any other source of satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. No waiver of any provisions of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document 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 Grantor or any other Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b)                 Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to a written agreement entered into between the Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to whom such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the Indenture and corresponding provisions of each Additional Pari Passu Document.

17  

Section 8.09              WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

Section 8.10                  Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 8.11                  Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

Section 8.12                  Headings. Article and Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

Section 8.13                  Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a)                 Each of the Grantors agrees that any suit for the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or any federal court sitting therein, as the Collateral Agent may elect in its sole discretion, and consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. Each party to this Agreement hereby waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any such court or that such suit is brought in an inconvenient forum and agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against a Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b)                 Each of the Grantors agrees that any action commenced by any Grantor asserting any claim or counterclaim arising under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Collateral Document shall be brought solely in a court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or any federal court sitting therein, as the Collateral Agent may elect in its sole discretion, and consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any such action.

(c)                 Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Collateral Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

18  

Section 8.14                  Termination; Release of Collateral.

(a)                 The Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes will be released, in whole or in part, as provided in Section 10.4 of the Indenture and the Liens securing Additional Pari Passu Obligations of any series will be released, in whole or in part, as provided in the Additional Pari Passu Documents governing such obligations. Upon at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written request by the Grantors accompanied by the Officer’s Certificate required by the Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall, without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind and at the Grantors sole cost and expense, execute such documents as the Grantors may reasonably request to evidence the release of the Liens upon any Collateral described in this Section 8.14; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in its reasonable opinion, would, under Applicable Law, expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any adverse 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 (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of any Grantor in respect of) all interests retained by any Grantor, including, without limitation, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(b)                 Except for those provisions which expressly survive the termination thereof, this Agreement and the Security Interest granted herein shall terminate when all of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations with respect to then unasserted claims) have been paid in full in cash, at which time, upon receipt of the Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required by the Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall, without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind, execute and deliver to the Grantors, at the Grantors’ expense, all UCC termination statements and similar documents that the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination; provided, however, that the Indenture, any Additional Pari Passu Document, this Agreement, and the Security Interest granted herein shall be reinstated if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Grantor or any other Grantor. Any execution and delivery of termination statements or other documents pursuant to this Section 8.14 shall be without recourse to, or warranty by, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.

Section 8.15                  Additional Grantors. If, after the date hereof, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Indenture and/or any Additional Pari Passu Document, any Grantor shall be required to cause any Subsidiary or other Person to become a party hereto, such Grantor shall cause such Person to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an Additional Grantor Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit A (the “Additional Grantor Joinder Agreement”), and such Person shall thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor party hereto and shall be deemed to have collaterally assigned and granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the security interest described in such Additional Grantor Joinder Agreement and Article 2 hereof.

Section 8.16                  Additional Pari Passu Obligations. On or after the date hereof, the Company may from time to time designate additional obligations as Additional Pari Passu Obligations pursuant to Section 5.13 of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement. Upon such designation in accordance with Section 5.13 of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and delivery by such Additional Senior Class Debt Representative of a Joinder Agreement, such Additional Pari Passu Obligations will be governed by and will constitute Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, except as may be otherwise specified in such Joinder Agreement.

19  

Section 8.17                  Intercreditor Agreement. This Agreement (other than Section 2.01 of this Agreement) and each other Collateral Document (other than Section 2.01 of this Agreement) are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreements in all respects and, in the event of any conflict between the terms of either Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement (other than Section 2.01 of this Agreement), the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the priority of the Lien and Security Interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Collateral Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Collateral Document are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of the Collateral Agent (and the Secured Parties) shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements. Prior to Discharge of ABL Secured Obligations (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), the delivery of any ABL Priority Collateral to the ABL Collateral Agent pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement shall satisfy any delivery requirement under the Indenture, the Notes or hereunder or under any other Collateral Document with respect to such ABL Priority Collateral to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, and the ABL Collateral Agent shall hold such ABL Priority Collateral as bailee for the Collateral Agent for the purpose of perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral. Prior to the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations (as defined in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement) that are Credit Agreement Obligations (as defined in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement), the delivery of any Collateral to the Term Loan Collateral Agent pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement shall satisfy any delivery requirement under the Indenture, the Notes or hereunder or under any other Collateral Document with respect to such Collateral to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, and the Term Loan Collateral Agent shall hold such Collateral as bailee for the Collateral Agent for the purpose of perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral.

Section 8.18                  Incorporation by Reference; Concerning the Collateral Agent. Wilmington Trust, National Association is entering into this Agreement solely in its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Indenture and not in its individual or corporate capacity. In connection with its execution and acting hereunder, the Collateral Agent is entitled to all of the rights, privileges, protections, immunities, benefits and indemnities provided to it under the Indenture and any corresponding provision of any Additional Pari Passu Document, as if such rights, privileges, protections, immunities, benefits and indemnities were set forth herein. Whether or not expressly stated therein, in executing, delivering and performing its obligations under any other Collateral Document, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the rights, privileges, protections, immunities, benefits and indemnities granted to it under the Indenture and any corresponding provision of any Additional Pari Passu Document. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or the other Collateral Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (and, if applicable, a majority of the Secured Parties) or the Applicable Authorized Representative in accordance with the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders (and, if applicable, the Secured Parties) against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

ADDITIONAL GRANTOR JOINDER AGREEMENT

This Additional Grantor Joinder Agreement, dated as of _______, ____ (this “Joinder Agreement”), is delivered pursuant to (a) Section 8.15 of the Security Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”) by and among Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse Corporation, a Florida corporation (the “Company”), the Guarantors from time to time party hereto and each of the other entities that may become a party thereto as provided therein (each of the foregoing, a “Grantor” and collectively, the “Grantors”), and Wilmington Trust, National Association, in its capacity as collateral agent for the Secured Parties, (in such capacity and together with any successors in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties, (b) Section 16 of the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “IP Security Agreement”) among the Company, the Grantors from time to time party thereto and each of the other entities that may become a party thereto as provided therein and the Collateral Agent and (c) Section 15 of the Pledge Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Pledge Agreement”) among the Company, the Guarantors from time to time party thereto and each of the other entities that may become a party thereto as provided therein (each of the foregoing, a “Pledgor” and collectively, the “Pledgors”) and the Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein are used herein with the meaning given them in the Security Agreement, the IP Security Agreement and the Pledge Agreement, as the case may be.

By executing and delivering this Joinder Agreement, the undersigned hereby becomes a party to the Security Agreement, the IP Security Agreement and the Pledge Agreement as a Grantor or Pledgor, as applicable, with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor or Pledgor, as applicable, therein, and expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Grantor or Pledgor, as applicable, thereunder and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full of the respective Secured Obligations of the undersigned, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties, a security interest in, and collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for its own benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties, all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral and the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) wherever located, and whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired from time to time. From and after the date hereof, the undersigned shall for all purposes be a party to the Security Agreement, the IP Security Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and shall have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor or Pledgor, as applicable, party thereto.

Without limiting the foregoing, the undersigned designates the Collateral Agent as such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney, exercisable by the Collateral Agent whether or not an Event of Default exists, with full power of substitution, at the Collateral Agent’s option, to file one or more Financing Statements, amendments to Financing Statements, continuation statements, or to sign other documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, or protecting the Security Interest granted by each Grantor, without the signature of any Grantor (each Grantor hereby appointing the Collateral Agent as such Person’s attorney to sign such Person’s name to any such instrument or document, whether or not an Event of Default exists), and naming any Grantor or the Grantors, as debtors, and the Collateral Agent, as secured party. Any such financing statement may indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Grantor whether now existing or hereafter acquired”, “all personal property of the debtor whether now existing or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC.

Notwithstanding the foregoing grant of authority to the Collateral Agent, each Grantor or Pledgor, as applicable, hereby agrees to prepare and file or cause to be filed, at its own expense, any Financing Statements, amendments to Financing Statements, continuation statements or any other documents or instruments in connection herewith in each applicable filing office as is necessary to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral and the Pledged Collateral and to deliver to the Collateral Agent a file stamped copy of each such Financing Statement, amendment thereto, continuation statement or other document or instrument in connection with this Agreement or any other Collateral Document.

Without limiting the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph and in furtherance of the provisions of the second paragraph of this Joinder Agreement, the Collateral Agent hereby designates each undersigned Grantor as the Collateral Agent’s true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, at such Grantor’s option, to file one or more Financing Statements, amendments to Financing Statements, continuation statements, or to sign other documents solely for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, or protecting the Security Interest granted by such Grantor, but not releasing or deleting any Collateral, without the signature of the Collateral Agent, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors, as debtors, and the Collateral Agent, as secured party. Any such financing statement may indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Grantor whether now existing or hereafter acquired”, “all personal property of the debtor whether now existing or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC.

The information set forth in Annex I is hereby added to the information set forth in Schedules I and 4.10 to the Security Agreement, the information in Annex II is hereby added to the information set forth in Exhibits A through D to the IP Security Agreement and the information set forth in Annex III is hereby added to the information set forth in Schedule I to the Pledge Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that each of the representations and warranties contained in the Security Agreement, the IP Security Agreement and the Pledge Agreement applicable to it is true and correct in all material respects on and as the date hereof as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, if a representation and warranty is qualified as to materiality, the materiality qualifier shall be disregarded with respect to such representation and warranty.

This Joinder Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal law of the State of New York without reference to conflicts of law rules other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York except that matters concerning the validity and perfection of a security interest shall be governed by the conflict of law rules set forth in the UCC. The undersigned hereby consents to the application of New York civil law to the construction, interpretation and enforcement of this Joinder Agreement, and to the application of New York civil law to the procedural aspects of any suit, action or proceeding relating thereto, including, but not limited to, legal process, execution of judgments and other legal remedies.

Transmission by facsimile, “PDF” or similar electronic format of an executed counterpart of this Joinder Agreement shall be deemed to constitute due and sufficient delivery of such counterpart.
