(c) Payment of Interest. Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date each Loan is made but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable in arrears and in cash on the date of any principal repayment, at maturity (whether by demand, acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand. Section 2.06 Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes unless such deduction is required by applicable Law; provided that if any Loan Party or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. Lender agrees to take any reasonable action in order to avoid incurrence of Indemnified Taxes so long as Lender (in its reasonable discretion) suffers no legal, economic or other disadvantage.

As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender. (e) Status of Lender. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not the Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. The foregoing documentation shall include, as applicable and without limitation, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or appropriate Form W-8 required attachments thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding three sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Section 2.07 Maximum Lawful Rate. This Agreement and the Note are hereby limited by this Section 2.07. In no event, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of the amounts due hereunder or otherwise, shall interest and fees contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to Lender exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable Law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest and fees otherwise would be payable to Lender in excess of the maximum amount permissible under applicable Law, the interest and fees shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable Law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, Lender shall have received anything of value deemed interest by applicable Law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excess of interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount of the Note, in such manner as may be determined by Lender, and not to the payment of fees or interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the principal amount of the Note, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower.

31 created, contracted, continued or incurred in reliance upon this Guaranty, and all dealings between any Guarantor and the Lender shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or such Guarantor with respect to the relevant Obligations. This Guaranty shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be construed as continuing absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment (and not of collection) without regard to the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, any promissory note, or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any collateral security or guaranty therefor or right to offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Lender and without regard to any defense, setoff or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or may be asserted by the Lender against any other Person, or by any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or any Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower or any Guarantor for any of its Obligations, or of any Guarantor under this Guaranty in bankruptcy or in any other instance, and the obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Lender or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrower or against any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of any Obligations or against any collateral security or guaranty therefor or right to offset with respect thereto. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns, until the Obligations shall have been satisfied in full.

Section 7.06 Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding on each Guarantor, its successors and assigns until all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity or expense reimbursement obligations) have been satisfied in full; provided that the Guaranty of any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction not prohibited hereunder as a result of which such Guarantor shall cease to be a Subsidiary. Section 7.07 Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any Bankruptcy Law, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors or the Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”).

The rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

(c) Indemnification. In consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Lender, the Borrower hereby indemnifies, agrees to defend, exonerates and holds the Lender and each of its partners, members, officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, liabilities, obligations and damages, and expenses incurred in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), including reasonable attorneys’ and professionals’ fees and disbursements, whether incurred in connection with actions between the parties hereto or between the parties hereto and third parties (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), including, without limitation, Indemnified Liabilities arising out of or relating to the entering into and performance of any Loan Document by any of the Indemnified Parties (including any action brought by or on behalf of the Borrower as the result of any determination by the Lender not to fund any Loan as a consequence of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth therein); provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation or liability under this Section 9.03(c) with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities that arise from or are the direct result of an Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If and to the extent that the foregoing indemnification may be unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable Law. (d) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. Section 9.04 Assignments. No party may transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of (a) the Borrower, in the case of a transfer by the Lender or (b) the Lender, in the case of a transfer by any Loan Party (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any party without such consent shall be null and void); provided, that Lender shall be permitted to transfer its rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate without the prior written consent of Borrower. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

The provisions of Sections 2.06 and 9.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitment or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. Section 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Lender and when the Lender shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the full satisfaction of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Senior Loan Documents), to the extent any Obligor is required hereunder to deliver Collateral to the Lender for purposes of possession and control and is unable to do so as a result of having previously delivered such Collateral to the Original Senior Agent in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Documents, such Obligor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such delivery shall be deemed satisfied by the delivery to the Original Senior Agent, acting as gratuitous bailee of the Lender.

Lender shall not be required to take steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral. 4.04 Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral. (a) Pledged Shares.

The Obligors shall at no time elect to treat any limited liability company or partnership interests pledged hereunder as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC.


 
- 11 - (ii) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors shall have the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Pledged Shares for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other instrument or agreement referred to herein or therein, provided that the Obligors jointly and severally agree that they will not vote the Pledged Shares in any manner that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any such other instrument or agreement, or in any manner adverse to the Lender’s rights, remedies or interest in any of the Loan Documents. (iii) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors shall be entitled to receive and retain any dividends, distributions or Proceeds on the Pledged Shares paid in cash out of earned surplus to the extent such dividends, distributions or Proceeds are permitted to be made under Section 5.15 of the Credit Agreement. (iv) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, whether or not the Lender exercises any available right to declare any Secured Obligations due and payable or seek or pursue any other relief or remedy available to it under applicable law or under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other agreement relating to such Secured Obligation, (A) all rights of each Obligor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Pledged Shares pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(ii) hereof shall immediately cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Lender, which shall thereupon have the sole right (but not the obligation) to exercise such voting and other consensual rights, and, in connection therewith, each Obligor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time execute and deliver to Lender appropriate instruments, and such other documentation as Lender may reasonably request in order to permit Lender to exercise the voting and other rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to this clause (A), and (B), all dividends and other distributions on the Pledged Shares shall be paid directly to Lender, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, and, if Lender shall so request in writing, the Obligors jointly and severally agree to execute and deliver to Lender appropriate additional dividend, distribution and other orders and documents to that end. (v) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Obligor hereby expressly authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Shares pledged hereunder to (i) comply with any Instruction received by it from Lender in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further Instructions from such Obligor, and such Obligor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividend or other payment with respect to the Pledged Shares directly to Lender. (b) Intellectual Property. (i) For the purpose of enabling Lender to exercise rights and remedies under Section 4.05 (which are effective upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default), each Obligor hereby grants to Lender, to the extent grantable, upon the occurrence of and solely during the continuation of an Event of Default, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Obligor) to use and exploit the Intellectual Property in any manner as is necessary in connection with Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies under this Agreement and the Credit Agreement in connection with an Event of Default (including the licensing or sublicensing of such Intellectual Property if so permitted) now owned or hereafter acquired by such Obligor forming part of the Collateral, wherever the same


 
- 12 - may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided, that, in the case of Trademarks, the foregoing license is subject to sufficient rights of quality control and inspection in favor of such Obligor with respect to use of the Trademarks in order to avoid the risk of invalidation of such Trademarks. Such license shall terminate in the event the applicable Event of Default is cured. (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement that limit the rights of the Obligors to dispose of their property, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of the business of the Obligors. In furtherance of the foregoing, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender shall from time to time, upon the reasonable request of the respective Obligor (through Company), execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so reasonably requested, that such Obligor (through Company) shall have determined are appropriate in its reasonable business judgment to allow it to take any action permitted above. The exercise of rights and remedies under Section 4.05 by Lender shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Obligors in accordance with the first sentence of this clause (ii). (iii) With respect to Intellectual Property that is owned by an Obligor, each Obligor shall have the duty, to the extent determined by such Obligor in its reasonable business judgment to be necessary or in its best interests in the operation of such Obligor’s business, to use commercially reasonable efforts, (A) to promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation, or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, or dilution, (B) to prosecute diligently any trademark application or service mark application that is part of the Trademarks pending as of the date hereof or hereafter until the termination of this Agreement, (C) to prosecute diligently any patent application that is part of the Patents pending as of the date hereof or hereafter until the termination of this Agreement and (D) to take all reasonable and necessary action to preserve and maintain all of such Obligor’s Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, domain names, other material Intellectual Property, Intellectual Property licenses, and its rights therein, including filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability and opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings. Each Obligor hereby agrees to take the steps described in this Section 4.04(b)(iii) with respect to all new or acquired Intellectual Property to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is now or later becomes entitled, if and to the extent that such Obligor determines, in its reasonable business judgment, to be necessary to do so. To the extent that: (i) registration is necessary to perfect the security interest with respect to the unregistered Copyright Collateral, (ii) such unregistered Copyright Collateral is material to the business of the Obligors taken as a whole, and (iii) Lender reasonably requests that registration be sought for such unregistered Copyright Collateral, the applicable Obligor that owns such unregistered Copyright shall file an application with the USCO for such Copyright Collateral. Any expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be borne by the appropriate Obligor. Each Obligor further agrees not to abandon any Trademark, Patent, Copyright or Intellectual Property license (except in dispositions permitted by the Loan Documents) that is economically desirable in the operation of such Obligor’s business unless such Obligor has determined in the reasonable business judgement of such Obligor that maintaining such Trademark, Patent, Copyright or Intellectual Property License is no longer necessary or in the best interests of such Obligor’s business.


 
- 13 - (iv) Without limiting any obligations under an Intellectual Property license which has been assigned to Lender in connection with an Event of Default, Obligors acknowledge and agree that the Lender shall have no duties with respect to the Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property licenses. Without limiting the generality of this Section 4.04(b)(iv), Obligors acknowledge and agree that Lender shall not be under any obligation to take any steps necessary to preserve rights in the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property licenses, but Lender may do so at its option from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals) shall be the joint and several responsibility of the Obligors. (v) Within thirty (30) days of each fiscal quarter end, Obligors shall give Lender written notice of any and all Patents or Trademarks for which an application for the registration of any such Patent or Trademark with the USPTO has been filed by an Obligor, and Obligors shall cause to be filed any such Patents Security Agreements and Trademarks Security Agreements and/or amendments thereto with respect to such filings and applications, as applicable, with the USPTO within forty-five (45) days of each fiscal quarter end. Within thirty (30) days after any filing or application of any Copyright with the USCO by an Obligor, Obligors shall give Lender written notice of any and all such Copyrights, and Obligors shall cause to be filed any such Copyright Security Agreements and/or amendments thereto with respect to such filings and applications with the USCO. (c) Chattel Paper. Each Obligor shall (i) deliver to Lender each original of each item of Chattel Paper at any time constituting part of the Collateral, and (ii) cause each such original and each copy thereof to bear a conspicuous legend, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, indicating that such Chattel Paper is subject to the security interest granted hereby and that purchase of such Chattel Paper by a Person other than Lender without the consent of Lender would violate the rights of Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirements of this Section 4.04(c) shall not apply to Chattel Paper with a value less than $250,000 individually or to Chattel Paper with a value less than $500,000 in the aggregate. (d) Commercial Tort Claims. Each Obligor agrees that, if it shall acquire any interest in any Commercial Tort Claim (whether from another Person or because such commercial tort claim shall have come into existence), (i) such Obligor shall, promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days thereof) deliver to Lender, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, a notice of the existence and nature of such Commercial Tort Claim and a supplement to Annex 4 containing a specific description of such Commercial Tort Claim, (ii) Section 3 of this Agreement shall apply to such Commercial Tort Claim and (iii) upon the request of the Lender, such Obligor shall execute and deliver to Lender, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, any document, and take all other action, deemed by Lender to be reasonably necessary for Lender to obtain a perfected security interest in all such Commercial Tort Claims, subject to Permitted Liens. Any supplement to Annex 4 delivered pursuant to this Section 4.04(d) shall, after the receipt thereof by Lender, become part of Annex 4 for all purposes hereunder other than in respect of representations and warranties made prior to the date of such receipt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirements of this Section 4.04(d) shall not apply to a Commercial Tort Claim with a value less than $250,000 individually or to Commercial Tort Claims with a value less than $500,000 in the aggregate.


 
- 14 - 4.05 Remedies. (a) Rights and Remedies Generally upon Default. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including the right (but not the obligation), to the fullest extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if Lender were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Obligor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right); and without limiting the foregoing the Lender may, but shall not be obligated to: (i) in its name or in the name of any Obligor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or other property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; (ii) make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral; (iii) require the Obligors to notify (and each Obligor hereby authorizes Lender to so notify) each account debtor in respect of any Account, Chattel Paper or General Intangible, and each obligor on any Instrument, constituting part of the Collateral that such Collateral has been assigned to Lender hereunder, and to instruct that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral shall be made directly to Lender or as it may direct (and if any such payments, or any other Proceeds of Collateral, are received by any Obligor they shall be held in trust by such Obligor for the benefit of Lender and as promptly as possible remitted or delivered to Lender for application as provided herein); (iv) require the Obligors to assemble the Collateral at such place or places, reasonably convenient to Lender and the Obligors, as Lender may direct; (v) require the Obligors to cause the Pledged Shares to be transferred of record into the name of Lender or its nominee (and Lender agrees that if any of such Pledged Shares is transferred into its name or the name of its nominee, Lender will thereafter promptly give to respective Obligor (through Company) copies of any notices and communications received by it with respect to such Pledged Shares); and (vi) sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, at such place or places as Lender deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and Lender or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Obligors, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. In the event of any sale, assignment, or other disposition of any of the Trademark Collateral, the goodwill connected with and symbolized by the Trademark Collateral


 
- 15 - subject to such disposition shall be included. Lender may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned. The Proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 4.05, including by virtue of the exercise of any license granted to Lender in Section 4.04(b), shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.09. (b) Certain Securities Act Limitations. The Obligors recognize that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable federal, foreign or state securities laws, or otherwise, Lender may determine that a public sale is impracticable, not desirable or not commercially reasonable and may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Obligors acknowledge that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to Lender than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Lender shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for public sale. (c) Other acts. Each Obligor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Shares pursuant to this Section 4.05 valid and binding and in compliance with all other applicable legal requirements. Each Obligor further agrees that a breach of any covenant contained in this Section 4.05 will cause irreparable injury to the Lender, that the Lender has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 4.05 shall be specifically enforceable against such Obligor, and such Obligor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement. (d) Notice. The Obligors agree that to the extent Lender is required by applicable law to give reasonable prior notice of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, ten Business Days’ notice shall be deemed to constitute reasonable prior notice. 4.06 Deficiency. If the Proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.05 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Obligors shall remain liable for any deficiency. 4.07 Locations; Names, Etc. Without at least 30 days’ prior written notice to Lender, no Obligor shall agree to or authorize any modification of the terms of any item of Collateral that would result in a change thereof from one UCC category to another such category (such as from a General Intangible to Investment Property), if the effect of any such change would be to result in a loss of perfection of, or diminution of priority for, the security interests created hereunder in such item of Collateral, or the loss of control (within the meaning of Section 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of the NYUCC) over such item of Collateral. 4.08 Private Sale. The Lender shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 4.05 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Obligor hereby waives any claims against the Lender arising by reason of the


 
- 16 - fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. 4.09 Application of Proceeds. The Proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by Lender under this Section 4, shall be applied by Lender, in accordance with the Credit Agreement. 4.10 Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to Lender while no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of each Obligor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4 and taking any action and executing any instruments that Lender may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as Lender shall be entitled under this Section 4 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, Lender shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of any Obligor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. 4.11 Perfection and Recordation. Each Obligor authorizes Lender to file UCC financing statements describing the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property and fixtures” of such Obligor, provided that no such description shall be deemed to modify the description of Collateral set forth in Section 3. Each Obligor authorizes Lender to file any Patents Security Agreements, Trademarks Security Agreements and/or Copyrights Security Agreements with the USPTO, or USCO, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligors agree to prepare, record and file, at their own expense, financing statements (including renewal statements), amendments and supplements and any necessary filings with the USPTO and USCO, as applicable, and such other instruments with respect to the Collateral now existing or hereafter created in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect and maintain the security interests granted hereunder, and to deliver a file stamped copy of each such financing statement or other evidence of filing to Lender, and Lender has no obligation to file UCC financing statements, continuation statements or amendments, filings with the USPTO or USCO, or any similar filings. 4.12 Termination. (a) Subject to clause (c) below, when all Secured Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of Lender and each Obligor hereunder shall automatically terminate, and Lender shall, at the request and expense of the Obligors, execute and deliver such documentation as is requested to evidence the assignment and transfer, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, of any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the respective Obligor and to be released and canceled all licenses and rights referred to in Section 4.04(b). Lender shall also, at the expense and request of such Obligor, authorize the filing of and/or cause to be executed and delivered to the respective Obligor upon such termination such UCC termination statements, releases of security interests with respect to the Patent Collateral, Trademark Collateral and Copyright Collateral for recording at the USPTO or USCO, as applicable, and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the respective Obligor to effect the termination and release of the Liens on the Collateral as required by this Section 4.12(a). In each instance, the Obligors shall have delivered to the


 
- 17 - Lender such documentation as is required under the Credit Agreement, including but not limited to Sections 8.04 and 8.05 of the Credit Agreement. (b) Upon (i) any disposition of any asset permitted by the Credit Agreement to any Person that is not an Obligor or an Affiliate thereof and/or (ii) any release of a Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guaranty in accordance with the Credit Agreement, the Liens granted herein covering such asset or the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be released. Lender shall, at the request and expense of the Obligors, execute and deliver such documentation as is requested to evidence the release any Lien covering any asset that has been disposed of with the written consent of the Lender under the Credit Agreement. Lender shall also, at the expense of such Obligor, execute and deliver to the respective Obligor upon such release such documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the respective Obligor to effect or confirm the release of the Liens on the Collateral as required by this Section 4.12(b). In each instance, the Obligors shall have delivered to the Lender an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such release is in compliance with the Loan Documents (on which the Lender may conclusively rely) and such other supporting documentation as the Lender may reasonably request. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any payments on the Secured Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent of the amount of such voided or returned amount of the Secured Obligations, such amount shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Lender’s Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each other applicable Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect, and the obligations of the Obligor under this Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to the provision of collateral herein) shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be. In such event, this Agreement and each other applicable Loan Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Obligor shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Lender to effect such reinstatement. 4.13 Further Assurances. Each Obligor agrees that, from time to time, at such Obligor’s expense, upon the written request of Lender, such Obligor will execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as Lender may reasonably request in order fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement. Section 5. Miscellaneous. 5.01 Notices. (a) Notices Generally.
