The Agent agrees with such Grantor that the Agent will 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 or

control, as applicable, for such Grantor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under UCC Section 9-105 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 for a party in Control to allow without loss of Control or control, as applicable, 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.

Section 4.4. Delivery of Pledged Collateral. Each Grantor will promptly deliver to the Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) upon execution of this Security Agreement all certificates or instruments, if any, representing or evidencing the Pledged Collateral, together with duly executed instruments of transfer or assignments in blank. Each delivery of Pledged Collateral (including any After-acquired Shares and After-acquired Debt) after the date hereof shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities theretofore and then being pledged hereunder, which shall be attached hereto as part of Exhibit F hereto and made a part hereof; provided, that the failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered.

Section 4.5. Uncertificated Pledged Collateral. Unless otherwise consented to by the Agent, Equity Interests required to be pledged hereunder in any Domestic Subsidiary that is organized as a limited liability company or limited partnership and pledged hereunder shall either (i) be represented by a certificate, and in the organizational documents of such entity, the applicable Grantor shall cause the issuer of such interests to elect to treat such interests as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of its jurisdiction of organization or formation, as applicable, by including in its organizational documents language substantially similar to the following and, accordingly, such interests shall be governed by Article 8 of the UCC:

“The [partnership/limited liability company] hereby irrevocably elects that all [partnership/membership] interests in the [partnership/limited liability company] shall be securities governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of [jurisdiction of organization or formation, as applicable]. Each certificate evidencing [partnership/membership] interests in the [partnership/limited liability company] shall bear the following legend: “This certificate evidences an interest in [name of [partnership/limited liability company]] and shall be a security for purposes of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code.” No change to this provision shall be effective until all outstanding certificates have been surrendered for cancellation and any new certificates thereafter issued shall not bear the foregoing legend.”

or (ii) not have elected to be treated as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC and shall not be represented by a certificate.

(a) Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee), on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall hold certificated Pledged Collateral in the name of the applicable Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Agent. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will promptly give to the Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) copies of any notices or other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Collateral registered in the name of such Grantor. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, following the

occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) shall at all times have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Collateral for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Security Agreement.

(b) Exercise of Rights in Pledged Collateral. Subject, in each case, to the Intercreditor Agreement,

(i) Without in any way limiting the foregoing and subject to clause (ii) below, each Grantor shall have the right to exercise all voting rights or other rights relating to the Pledged Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that no vote or other right shall be exercised or action taken which would reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially and adversely impairing the rights of the Agent in respect of the Pledged Collateral.

(ii) Each Grantor will permit the Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without written notice, to exercise all voting rights or other rights relating to Pledged Collateral, including, without limitation, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges, or options pertaining to any Equity Interest or Investment Property constituting Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof.

(iii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all Stock Rights to the extent and only to the extent that such Stock Rights are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that any non-cash Stock Rights that would constitute Pledged Collateral, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Collateral or received in exchange for Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall be forthwith delivered to the Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or instrument of assignment). The proviso to the first sentence of this clause (iii) shall not apply to dividends between or among the Company and the other Loan Parties only of property subject to a perfected security interest under this Security Agreement; provided that the Company notifies the Agent in writing, specifically referring to this Section 4.6, at the time of such dividend and takes any actions the Agent reasonably specifies to ensure the continuance of its perfected security interest in such property under this Security Agreement

Section 4.7. Intellectual Property. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents and approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to or for the benefit of the Agent of any License held by such Grantor in order to enforce the security interests granted hereunder.

(b) Each Grantor shall in its reasonable business judgment notify the Agent promptly if it knows or reasonably expects that any application or registration relating to any Patent, Trademark or Copyright (now or hereafter existing) included in the Collateral and material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business may become abandoned or dedicated, or of any material adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in

the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such material registered or applied for Patent, Trademark or Copyright, its right to register the same, or to keep and maintain the same.

(c) In the event that any Grantor, either directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, files an application for the registration of any material Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, such Grantor will, concurrently with any delivery of financial statements pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) and 5.01(b) of the Credit Agreement, provide the Agent written notice thereof, and, upon request of the Agent, such Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver any and all security agreements or other instruments as the Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Agent’s security interest in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and the General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(d) Each Grantor shall take all actions necessary or reasonably requested by the Agent to maintain and pursue each material application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights (now or hereafter existing) material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, except in cases where, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, such Grantor reasonably decides to abandon, allow to lapse or expire any Patent, Trademark or Copyright, including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of non-contestability and, if consistent with good business judgment, to initiate opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties.

(e) Each Grantor shall, unless it shall reasonably determine that a Patent, Trademark or Copyright is not material to the conduct of its business, promptly notify the Agent and shall, if consistent with good business judgment, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution of such material Patent, Trademark or Copyright and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, or shall take such other actions as are appropriate under the circumstances in its reasonable business judgment to protect such Patent, Trademark or Copyright.

(f) Nothing in this Security Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or maintenance of, failing to pursue, or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or put into the public domain, any of its Collateral constituting Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business.

Section 4.8. Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent of any Commercial Tort Claims for which such Grantor has filed complaint(s) in court(s) of competent jurisdiction and, unless the Agent otherwise consents, such Grantor shall update Exhibit E to this Security Agreement, thereby granting to Agent a security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim(s) (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement). The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort Claim does not exceed $2,500,000 held by each Grantor or to the extent such Grantor shall have previously notified the Agent with respect to any previously held or acquired Commercial Tort Claim.

Section 4.9. Letter-of-Credit Rights. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Grantor is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit having a face amount in excess of $2,500,000, which Letter-of-Credit Rights are not Supporting Obligations with respect to any Collateral in which the security interest is perfected, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and cause the issuer and/or confirmation bank to (i) consent to the assignment of any Letter-of-Credit Rights to the Agent and (ii) agree to direct all payments thereunder following the occurrence and during the continuance of an

Event of Default or a Liquidity Event to an account as directed by the Agent for application to the Secured Obligations, in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

Section 4.10. Insurance. All insurance policies required under Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement shall name the Agent (for the benefit of the Agent and the other Secured Parties) as lender’s loss payee or, upon request by Agent, as additional insured, as applicable, and shall contain lender’s loss payable clauses or mortgagee clauses, through endorsements in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent.

Section 4.11. Collateral Access Agreements. To the extent required by the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement, from the lessor of each of its leased warehouse and distribution facilities, and the bailee, warehouseman or other third party with respect to any warehouse or other location, in each case where Collateral is stored or located.

Section 5.1. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) the Agent may (and at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall) exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(i) those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this Section 5.1(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights available to the Agent and the Secured Parties prior to an Event of Default;

(ii) those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) 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;

(iii) give notice of sole control or any other instruction under any Blocked Account Agreement, Collateral Access Agreement or any other control or similar agreement and take any action provided therein with respect to the applicable Collateral;

(iv) without notice (except as specifically provided in Section 7.1 or elsewhere herein), demand or advertisement of any kind to any Grantor or any other Person, enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice and may take place at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and

(v) concurrently with written notice to the Grantors, transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all Stock Rights that any Grantor may be entitled to receive in connection therewith and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Agent was the outright owner thereof.

(b) Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the compliance by the Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(c) The Agent shall have the right upon any public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption each Grantor hereby expressly releases.

(d) Until the Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of Collateral, the Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or the value of the Collateral, or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Agent. The Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Agent and Secured Parties) with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Agent nor the Secured Parties shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the Grantors, 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 Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.

(f) Each Grantor recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if any Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so (it being acknowledged and agreed that no Grantor shall have any obligation hereunder to do so).

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any rights and remedies provided in this Section 5.1 shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 5.2. Grantors’ Obligations Upon Default. Upon the written request of the Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will:

(a) assemble and make available to the Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places reasonably specified by the Agent, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere; and

(b) permit the Agent, by the Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy.

Section 5.3. Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this Article V upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at such time as the Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby (a) grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties, an irrevocable nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any intellectual property rights now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located, and including in such license 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; provided, however that such licenses to be granted hereunder with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks; and provided further that the Agent shall have no greater rights than those of any such Grantor under such license or sublicense; and (b) irrevocably agrees that, at any time and from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may sell any Grantor’s Inventory directly to any Person, including without limitation Persons who have previously purchased any Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, may (subject to any restrictions contained in applicable third party licenses entered into by a Grantor) sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Agent may finish any work in process and affix any relevant Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein. The use of the license granted pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence by the Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided, however, that any permitted license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

Section 6.1. Account Verification. The Grantors acknowledge that (i) prior to an Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Agent, the Grantors shall (either accompanied by the Agent or at the Agent’s direction), and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may in its own name, or in the name of such Grantor, communicate with the Account Debtors of such Grantor to verify with such Persons the existence, amount, terms of, and any other matter reasonably relating to the Accounts owing by such Account Debtor to such Grantor (including any Instruments, Chattel Paper, payment intangibles and/or other Receivables that are Collateral relating to such Accounts).

(a) Each Grantor hereby (i) authorizes the Agent, at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Agent (1) to execute on behalf of such Grantor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Agent’s reasonable discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, to file financing statements permitted under Section 4.1(b) and (2) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which would not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Agent in its reasonable discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, to file financing statements permitted under Section 4.1(b) and (ii) appoints, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent as its attorney in fact (1) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for such Liens as are specifically permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement), (2) to endorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral and to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided herein or in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, (3) to demand payment or enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Agent or any Grantor and to endorse any and all checks, drafts, and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, (4) to sign any Grantor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to the Receivables, drafts against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, assignments and verifications of Receivables, (5) to exercise all of any Grantor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other Collateral, (6) to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Receivables, (7) to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect Receivables, (8) to prepare, file and sign any Grantor’s name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, (9) to prepare, file and sign any Grantor’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables, (10) to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to any Grantor to such address as the Agent may designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor, and (11) to use information contained in any data processing, electronic or information systems relating to Collateral; and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Agent for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable documented expense incurred by the Agent in connection with any of the foregoing, in accordance with the provisions Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement; provided that, this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement.

(b) All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved by the Grantors. The powers conferred on the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and Secured Parties, under this Section 6.2 are solely to protect the Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers.

Section 6.3. PROXY. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS, EFFECTIVE UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, THE AGENT AS ITS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT (AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 6.2 ABOVE) WITH RESPECT TO THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO VOTE SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO. IN ADDITION TO THE RIGHT TO VOTE ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL, THE APPOINTMENT OF THE 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 AGENT THEREOF), UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.

Section 6.4. NATURE OF APPOINTMENT; LIMITATION OF DUTY. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN THIS ARTICLE VI IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 7.13. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, NEITHER THE AGENT, NOR ANY SECURED PARTY, NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY DUTY TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OR POWER GRANTED HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE OR TO PRESERVE THE SAME AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO DO SO OR FOR ANY DELAY IN DOING SO, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH DAMAGES ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION; PROVIDED THAT, IN NO EVENT SHALL THEY BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

Section 7.1. Waivers. 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 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 Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article VIII, at least ten 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. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Agent or any Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or such Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Agent or any Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

Section 7.2. Limitation on Agent’s and Secured Party’s Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.

The Agent and each Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Agent or such Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Agent to exercise remedies, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it would be commercially reasonable for the Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) 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, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) 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, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as a Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) 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 capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements at the Grantors’ cost 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 (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, to 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 7.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, 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 7.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7.2 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 Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 7.2.

Section 7.3. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the 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 Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

Section 7.4. Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay under this

Security Agreement and such Grantor shall reimburse the Agent for any amounts paid by the Agent pursuant to this Section 7.4. Each Grantor’s obligation to reimburse the Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable on demand.

Section 7.5. No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay by the Agent or any Secured Party in exercising any right or power 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 Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement or consent to any departure by any Secured Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless in writing signed by the Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the Lenders required under Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

Section 7.6. Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. 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.

Section 7.7. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

Section 7.8. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Grantor, the Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted 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 Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties, hereunder.

Section 7.9. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of each Grantor contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement.

Section 7.10. Taxes and Expenses. To the extent required by Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to (i) pay any taxes payable or ruled payable by Federal or State authority in respect of this Security Agreement, together with interest and penalties, if any, and (ii) reimburse the Agent for any and all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the 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 Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Collateral). Any and all costs and expenses incurred by any Grantor in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by such Grantor.

Section 7.11. Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to and in accordance with Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall cause (i) each Domestic Subsidiary of the Company (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) formed or acquired after the date of this Security Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and (ii) any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company that was an Excluded Subsidiary but has ceased to be an Excluded Subsidiary, to enter into this Security Agreement as a Subsidiary Party as promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable (but in no event to exceed ninety (90) days after such formation or acquisition or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Agent in writing. Upon execution and delivery by the Agent and such Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Exhibit J hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Security Agreement.

Section 7.12. 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.

(a) This Security Agreement shall continue in effect until the Termination Date.

(b) A Subsidiary Party shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the security interests created hereunder in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Party shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Party ceases to be a Subsidiary.

(c) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under Section 4.1(d) to any Person that is not another Grantor or, upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released.

(d) The security interests granted hereunder on any Collateral, to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Loan Party, shall be automatically released upon termination or expiration of such lease, pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.

(e) The security interests created hereunder in the Collateral shall be automatically released as required pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that the Agent may, in its discretion, release the Lien on Collateral as provided in Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.

(f) In the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC or any other relevant Governmental Authority to require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would require) the filing with the SEC (or any other Governmental Authority) of separate financial statements of any Subsidiary of the Company due to the fact that the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary are pledged under this Security Agreement, then the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed not to be part of the Collateral to the extent necessary not to be subject to such requirement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Security Agreement, if Equity Interests of any Subsidiary are not required to be pledged under this Security Agreement because Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act would require the filing of separate financial statements of such Subsidiary if its Equity Interests were so pledged, in the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC or any other relevant Governmental Authority to no longer require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation that would not require) the filing of separate financial statements of such Subsidiary if some or all of its Equity Interests are pledged under this Security Agreement, then such Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed part of the Collateral and pledged under this Security Agreement.

(g) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), or (f) above, the Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all UCC termination statements and similar documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.13 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Agent or any Secured Party. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.18, the Company shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for all reasonable and documented costs and out of pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and expenses of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 7.13.

Section 7.14. Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between each Grantor and the Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between any Grantor and the Agent relating to the Collateral.

Section 7.15. CHOICE OF LAW. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

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, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GRANTOR (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 7.18. Indemnity. Each Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Agent, the other Secured Parties, and their respective Related Parties harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities, and related expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Agent or any Secured Party is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent or the Secured Parties, or their respective Related Parties, in any way relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement, to the extent the Grantor would be required to do so pursuant to Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.
