4.6.4 Exercise of Rights in Pledged Securities and other Investment Property. Each Grantor will permit the Administrative Agent or its nominee at any time after the occurrence and continuance of a Default, without notice, to exercise or refrain from exercising any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral owned by such Grantor or any part thereof, and to receive all dividends and interest in respect of such Pledged Collateral. Unless and until a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral for any purpose that does not violate the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Grantor will be entitled to exercise any such right if the result thereof could materially and adversely affect the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or Holders of Secured Obligations under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or the ability to exercise the same, and (ii) each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain all dividends or interest in respect of such Pledged Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends or

interest are not prohibited by the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable laws, other than any dividends or interest resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification or received in exchange for Pledged Collateral, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets.

4.8. Letter-of-Credit Rights.

5.2. Acceleration and Remedies.

5.2.1 Those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document; provided that this Section 5.2.1 shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations prior to a Default.

5.2.2 Those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the New York UCC or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement.

5.2.3 Without notice except as specifically provided in Section 8.1 hereof or elsewhere herein, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations, may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Pledged Collateral, and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Pledged Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Holders of Secured Obligations shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured

Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Pledged Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Pledged Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order or (iii) effect a public sale of any of the Pledged Collateral.

5.4. License. The Administrative Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, exercisable only following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, without charge, each Grantor’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, customer lists and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Pledged Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Pledged Collateral, and, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, such Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Administrative Agent’s benefit. In addition, each Grantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent may, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, sell any of such Grantor’s Inventory directly to any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased such Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Administrative Agent may finish any work in process and affix any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.

ARTICLE VI

WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Holder of Secured Obligations to exercise any right or remedy granted under this Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of (a) the Required Lenders (or, if required pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, with the

concurrence or at the direction of Required Revolving Lenders or all of the Lenders) and (b) each Grantor, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth; provided that the addition of any Subsidiary of the Company as a Grantor hereunder by execution of a Security Agreement Supplement in the form of Annex I (with such modifications as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) shall not require receipt of any consent from or execution of any documentation by any other Grantor party hereto. All rights and remedies contained in this Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full.

ARTICLE VII

PROCEEDS; COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES

7.1. Lockboxes and Account Control Agreements. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, each Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent irrevocable lockbox and account control agreements in the form provided by or otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which agreements shall be accompanied by an acknowledgment by the bank where the lockbox and applicable deposit account is located of the Lien of the Administrative Agent granted hereunder and of irrevocable instructions to wire all amounts collected therein to a special collateral account at the Administrative Agent.

7.2. Collection of Receivables. The Administrative Agent may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, by giving each Grantor written notice, elect to require that the Receivables that constitute Pledged Collateral be paid directly to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations. In such event, each Grantor shall, and shall permit the Administrative Agent to, promptly notify the account debtors or obligors under the Receivables owned by such Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s interest therein and direct such account debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts then or thereafter due under such Receivables directly to the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall thereafter hold in trust for the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations, all amounts and proceeds received by it with respect to the Receivables and Other Collateral and immediately and at all times thereafter deliver to the Administrative Agent all such amounts and proceeds in the same form as so received, whether by cash, check, draft or otherwise, with any necessary endorsements. The Administrative Agent shall hold and apply funds so received as provided by the terms of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 hereof.

7.3. Special Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent may require, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, all cash proceeds of such Grantor’s Pledged Collateral to be deposited in a special non-interest bearing cash collateral account with the Administrative Agent and held there as security for the Secured Obligations. No Grantor shall have any control whatsoever over said cash collateral account. If no Default has occurred or is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall from time to time deposit the collected balances in said cash collateral account into the applicable Grantor’s general operating account with the Administrative Agent. If any Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent

may (and shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders), from time to time, apply the collected balances in said cash collateral account to the payment of the Secured Obligations whether or not the Secured Obligations shall then be due.

7.4. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Pledged Collateral shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1. Notice of Disposition of Pledged Collateral; Condition of Pledged Collateral. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Company, as designee for the other Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Pledged Collateral for sale.

8.2. Compromises and Collection of Pledged Collateral. Each Grantor and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

8.3. Administrative Agent Performance of Grantors’ Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Security Agreement and such Grantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any reasonable amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.3. Each Grantor’s obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable within ten (10) days after demand.

8.4. Authorization for Administrative Agent to Take Certain Action; Proxy.

8.4.1 Each Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to execute on behalf of such Grantor as

debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral, (ii) to endorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Pledged Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems reasonably necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral, (iv) to contact and enter into one or more agreements with the issuers of uncertificated securities which are Pledged Collateral owned by such Grantor and which are Securities or, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, with financial intermediaries holding other Investment Property as may be necessary or advisable to give the Administrative Agent Control over such Securities or other Investment Property, (v) to enforce payment of the Instruments, Accounts and Receivables in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Grantor, (vi) to apply the proceeds of any Pledged Collateral received by the Administrative Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article VII and (vii) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Pledged Collateral (except for such Liens as are specifically permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document), and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith; provided that this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent agrees not to exercise the powers of attorney granted pursuant to the foregoing clauses (iv) and (v) unless a Default has occurred and is continuing.

8.4.2 EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS THE PROXY AND ATTORNEY IN FACT OF SUCH GRANTOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL OWNED BY SUCH GRANTOR, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO VOTE ANY INSTRUMENTS, SECURITIES OR OTHER INVESTMENT PROPERTY CONSTITUTING PLEDGED COLLATERAL IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS HEREOF, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO. IN ADDITION TO THE RIGHT TO VOTE ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL AFTER A DEFAULT, THE APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT SHALL INCLUDE THE RIGHT TO EXERCISE ALL OTHER RIGHTS, POWERS, PRIVILEGES AND REMEDIES TO WHICH A HOLDER OF SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL WOULD BE ENTITLED (INCLUDING GIVING OR WITHHOLDING WRITTEN CONSENTS OF SHAREHOLDERS, CALLING SPECIAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS AND VOTING AT SUCH MEETINGS). SUCH PROXY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE, AUTOMATICALLY AND WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF ANY ACTION (INCLUDING ANY TRANSFER OF ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL ON THE RECORD BOOKS OF THE ISSUER THEREOF) BY ANY PERSON (INCLUDING THE ISSUER OF SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL OR ANY

OFFICER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THEREOF), UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF A DEFAULT. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.12. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AGREES NOT TO EXERCISE THE POWER OF ATTORNEY GRANTED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.4.2 UNLESS A DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED AND IS CONTINUING.

8.5. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1.5, 4.1.6, 4.4 or 5.3 or in Article VII hereof will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations, that the Administrative Agent and Holders of Secured Obligations have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Holders of Secured Obligations to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this Security Agreement, that the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantors.

8.6. Use and Possession of Certain Premises. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to occupy and use any premises owned or leased by any Grantor where any of such Grantor’s Pledged Collateral or any records relating to such Grantor’s Pledged Collateral are located until the Secured Obligations are paid or such Grantor’s Pledged Collateral is removed therefrom, whichever first occurs, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy.

8.7. Dispositions Not Authorized. No Grantor is authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of its respective Pledged Collateral except as set forth in Section 4.1.5 hereof and notwithstanding any course of dealing between such Grantor and the Administrative Agent or other conduct of the Administrative Agent, no authorization to sell or otherwise dispose of such Grantor’s Pledged Collateral (except as set forth in Section 4.1.5 hereof) shall be binding upon the Administrative Agent or the Holders of Secured Obligations unless such authorization is in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent or at the direction of the Required Lenders (or, if required pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, with the consent or at the direction of each of the Lenders).

8.8. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

Each Grantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any and all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses and internal charges (including reasonable attorneys’, auditors’ and accountants’ fees) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Pledged Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Pledged Collateral). Any and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Grantors in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by the Grantors.

8.11. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement.

8.13. Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Pledged Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Pledged Collateral.

8.14. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

8.14.1 THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

8.14.2 Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each Grantor 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 Security Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or

proceeding relating to this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

8.14.3 Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 8.14.2. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

8.14.4 Each party to this Security Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Article IX of this Security Agreement, and each of the Grantors hereby appoints the Company as its agent for service of process. Nothing in this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Security Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

8.14.5 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GRANTOR (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER GRANTOR HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER GRANTOR WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER GRANTORS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

8.15. Indemnity. Each Grantor hereby agrees, jointly with the other Grantors and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations, and their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs, and expenses of any kind and nature (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Holder of Secured Obligations is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Holders of Secured Obligations, or their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, in any way relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition of any Pledged Collateral (including, without limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Administrative Agent or the Holders of Secured Obligations or any Grantor, and any claim for patent, trademark or copyright infringement) other

than to the extent such liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs, and expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any such indemnified party.

8.16. Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Grantor agrees that any and all claims of such Grantor against any other Grantor (each an “Obligor”) with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Secured Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, such Grantor may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course of business with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from each such Obligor to the extent not prohibited by the terms of this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Grantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Grantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the Holders of Secured Obligations and the Administrative Agent in those assets. No Grantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until this Security Agreement has terminated or expired in accordance with Section 8.12 hereof. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Grantor (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application on any of the Secured Obligations, due or to become due, until such Secured Obligations shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the applicable Grantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the satisfaction of all of the Secured Obligations and the termination or expiration of all Commitments of the Lenders and Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, such Grantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Grantor where necessary), for application to any of the Secured Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by such Grantor as the property of the Holders of Secured Obligations. If any such Grantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Grantor agrees that until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all Commitments and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement have terminated or expired, no Grantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent,

the Company, another Grantor or, to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement, another Subsidiary of the Company) any claim any such Grantor has or may have against any Obligor.

8.17. Severability. Any provision in this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

8.18. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement.
