THIS GUARANTY (including all exhibits hereto, as the same may be amended, modified and/or restated from time to time, this “Guaranty”) is made as of this 10th day of June, 2005, by PTHR HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), PANTHER II TRANSPORTATION, INC., an Ohio corporation ( “Panther” ), and PANTHER II, INC., an Ohio corporation f/k/a/ Sokolowski, Inc. (“Panther Sub”; Holdings, Panther and Panther Sub, together with each other Person who becomes a party to this Agreement by execution of a joinder in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, is referred to herein each individually as a “Guarantor” and collectively as the “Guarantors”) in favor of ANTARES CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as agent ( “Agent” ) on behalf of itself and certain financial institutions (the “Lenders” ) from time to time party to the Credit Agreement described below.

WHEREAS, Agent and Lenders have entered into that certain Credit Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement” ) with Panther Acquisition, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“Initial Borrower”; Initial Borrower, together with its permitted successors and assigns, including Panther from and after the consummation of the Panther Acquisition, is referred to herein as the “Borrower”);

WHEREAS, the Borrower will become liable for the “Obligations” (as that term is defined in the Credit Agreement) including, without limitation, loans and other financial accommodations from the Lenders (including Agent in its individual capacity) under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents referred to therein; and

WHEREAS, (i) Holdings directly or indirectly owns one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Borrower and (ii) Panther Sub is a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Borrower and therefor, each such Guarantor will derive substantial benefit and advantage from the loans and other financial accommodations available to the Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement, and it will be to the interest and economic benefit of each Guarantor to assist the Borrower in procuring said loans and other financial accommodations from the Lenders and the Agent.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to make loans and financial accommodations to the Borrower thereunder, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

1. Definitions: Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined herein are used with the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties the full and prompt payment to the Agent and the Lenders, when due, whether upon demand, at maturity or by reason of acceleration or otherwise and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the Obligations.

(b) Each Guarantor acknowledges that valuable consideration supports this Guaranty, including, without limitation, the consideration set forth in the recitals above as well as any commitment to lend, extension of credit or other financial accommodation, whether heretofore or hereafter made by the Lenders or the Agent to the Borrower; any extension, renewal or replacement of any of the Obligations; any forbearance with respect to any of the Obligations or otherwise; any cancellation of an existing guaranty; any purchase of any of the Borrower’s assets by the Lenders or the Agent; or any other valuable consideration.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that all payments under this Guaranty shall be made in United States currency and in the same manner as provided for the Obligations.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, it is intended that this Guaranty, and any interests, liens and security interests granted by Guarantors as security for this Guaranty, not constitute a “ Fraudulent Conveyance ” (as defined below) in the event that this Guaranty or such interest is subject to the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state. Consequently, Guarantors and Agent agree that if this Guaranty, or any such interests, liens or security interests securing this Guaranty, would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, this Guaranty and each such lien and security interest shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause this Guaranty or such interest, lien or security interest to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly at all relevant times. For purposes hereof, “ Fraudulent Conveyance ” means a fraudulent conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, as in effect from time to time.

Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agrees to pay on demand, if not paid by the Borrower, all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred by the Agent or the Lenders: (a) in enforcing this Guaranty, (b) in collecting any of the Obligations from the Borrower or any Guarantor, (c) in realizing upon or protecting any collateral for this Guaranty or for payment of any of the Obligations, and (d) for any other purpose related to the Obligations or this Guaranty. “Costs and expenses” as used in the preceding sentence shall include, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Agent or any Lender in retaining counsel for advice, suit, appeal, any insolvency or other proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, or for any purpose specified in the preceding sentence.

(a) This Guaranty is and is intended to be a continuing guaranty of payment of the Obligations, and not of collectibility, and is and is intended to be independent of and in

addition to any other guaranty, indorsement, collateral or other agreement held by the Agent or the Lenders therefor or with respect thereto, whether or not furnished by any Guarantor. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be required to prosecute collection, enforcement or other remedies against Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person, or to enforce or resort to any of the Collateral or other rights or remedies pertaining thereto, before calling on a Guarantor for payment. The obligations of each Guarantor to repay the Obligations hereunder shall be unconditional. No Guarantor shall have any right of subrogation with respect to any payments made by any Guarantor hereunder, and each Guarantor hereby waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Agent or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations and agrees that it will not take any action to enforce any obligations of the Borrower to any Guarantor, in each of the foregoing cases prior to the Obligations being finally and irrevocably paid in full and the termination of the Commitments under the Credit Agreement, provided that, in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Borrower, the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall be entitled notwithstanding the foregoing, to file in the name of any Guarantor or in its own name a claim for any and all indebtedness owing to a Guarantor by the Borrower (exclusive of this Guaranty) and to apply the proceeds of any such claim to the Obligations.

(b) For the further security of the Agent and the Lenders and without in any way diminishing the liability of the Guarantors, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all debts and liabilities, present or future of the Borrower to the Guarantors and all monies received from the Borrower or for its account by the Guarantors in respect thereof shall be received in trust for the Agent and the Lenders and forthwith upon receipt shall be paid over to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, until all of the Obligations have been paid in full. This assignment and postponement is independent of and severable from this Guaranty and shall remain in full effect whether or not any Guarantor is liable for any amount under this Guaranty.

(c) This Guaranty is absolute and unconditional and shall not be changed or affected by any representation, oral agreement, act or thing whatsoever, except as herein provided. This Guaranty is intended by the Guarantors to be the final, complete and exclusive expression of the guaranty agreement among the Guarantors and the Agent, for its own benefit and on behalf of the Lenders. No modification or amendment of any provision of this Guaranty shall be effective against Agent or a Guarantor unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of the Agent, individually and on behalf of the Lenders, and by such Guarantor.

(d) Each Guarantor hereby releases the Borrower from all, and agrees not to assert or enforce (whether by or in a legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise) any “claims” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code), whether arising under any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, policy or other requirement of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof, having jurisdiction over the conduct of its business or assets or otherwise, to which the Guarantors are or would at any time be entitled by virtue of its obligations hereunder, any payment made pursuant hereto or the exercise by Lender of its rights with respect to the Collateral, including any such claims to which such Guarantors may be entitled as a result of any right of subrogation, exoneration or reimbursement.

(a) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Agent and the Lenders may, and, authorizes the Agent and the Lenders to, without notice, demand or any reservation of rights against such Guarantor and without affecting such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, from time to time:

(i) renew, extend, increase, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, the terms of or the interest on the Obligations or any part thereof or grant other indulgences to the Borrower or others;

(ii) accept from any Person and hold collateral for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, and modify, exchange, enforce or refrain from enforcing, or release, compromise, settle, waive, subordinate or surrender, with or without consideration, such collateral or any part thereof;

(iii) accept and hold any indorsement or guaranty of payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, and discharge, release or substitute any such obligation of any such indorser or guarantor, or discharge, release or compromise any Guarantor, or any other Person who has given any security interest in any collateral as security for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, or any other Person in any way obligated to pay the Obligations or any part thereof, and enforce or refrain from enforcing, or compromise or modify, the terms of any obligation of any such indorser, guarantor, or Person;

(iv) dispose of any and all collateral securing the Obligations in any manner as Agent or the Lenders, in their sole discretion, may deem appropriate, and direct the order or manner of such disposition and the enforcement of any and all endorsements and guaranties relating to the Obligations or any part thereof as the Agent or the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine;

(v) except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, determine the manner, amount and time of application of payments and credits, if any, to be made on all or any part of any component or components of the Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses, or otherwise) including, without limitation, the application of payments received from any source to the payment of indebtedness other than the Obligations even though Agent or the Lenders might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to the Obligations to amounts which are not covered by this Guaranty; and

(vi) take advantage or refrain from taking advantage of any security or accept or make or refrain from accepting or making any compositions or arrangements when and in such manner as the Agent or the Lenders, in their sole discretion, may deem appropriate;

and generally do or refrain from doing any act or thing which might otherwise, at law or in equity, release the liability of such Guarantor as a guarantor or surety in whole or in part, and in no case shall the Agent or the Lenders be responsible or shall any Guarantor be released either in whole or in part for any act or omission in connection with the Agent or the Lenders having sold any security at less than its value.

(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and upon demand by Agent, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to pay the Obligations to the extent hereinafter provided:

(i) without deduction by reason of any setoff, defense (other than payment) or counterclaim of the Borrower or any other Guarantor;

(ii) without requiring presentment, protest or notice of nonpayment or notice of default to any Guarantor, to the Borrower or to any other Person;

(iii) without demand for payment or proof of such demand or filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Guarantor;

(iv) without requiring the Agent or the Lenders to resort first to the Borrower (this being a guaranty of payment and not of collection), to any other Guarantor, or to any other guaranty or any collateral which the Agent or the Lenders may hold;

(v) without requiring notice of acceptance hereof or assent hereto by the Agent or the Lenders; and

(vi) without requiring notice that any of the Obligations has been incurred, extended or continued or of the reliance by the Agent or the Lenders upon this Guaranty; all of which each Guarantor hereby waives.

(c) Each Guarantor’s obligation hereunder shall not be affected by any of the following, all of which such Guarantor hereby waives:

(i) any failure to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest in or other lien on any collateral securing payment of any of the Obligations or any Guarantor’s obligation hereunder;

(ii) the invalidity, unenforceability, propriety of manner of enforcement of, or loss or change in priority of any Loan Document or any such security interest or other lien or guaranty of the Obligations;

(iv) failure of a Guarantor to receive notice of any intended disposition of such collateral;

(v) any defense arising by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of liability of the Borrower including, without limitation, any failure, negligence or omission by the Agent or the Lenders in enforcing their claims against the Borrower;

(vi) any release, settlement or compromise of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Guarantor;

(viii) any change of ownership of the Borrower or any other Guarantor or the insolvency, bankruptcy or any other change in the legal status of the Borrower or any other Guarantor;

(ix) any change in, or the imposition of, any law, decree, regulation or other governmental act which does or might impair, delay or in any way affect the validity, enforceability or the payment when due of the Obligations;

(x) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which such Guarantor, Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person may have at any time against the Agent, any Lender or the Borrower in connection herewith or any unrelated transaction;

(xi) any Lender’s election, in any case instituted under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of section 111 l(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(xii) any use of cash collateral, or grant of a security interest by the Borrower, as debtor in possession, under sections 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(xiii) the disallowance of all or any portion of any of the Agent’s or the Lenders’ claims for repayment of the Obligations under sections 502 or 506 of the Bankruptcy Code; or

This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Obligations shall be finally and irrevocably paid in full in cash and the commitments under the Credit Agreement shall have been terminated; provided, however, this Guaranty shall be terminated as to Panther after the consummation of the Closing Date Merger. Thereafter, but subject to the following, the Agent shall take such action and execute such documents as the Guarantors may request (and at the Guarantors’ cost and expense) in order to evidence the termination of this Guaranty. Payment of all of the Obligations from time to time shall not operate as a discontinuance of this Guaranty. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Agent or any of the Lenders on the Obligations, or the Agent or the Lenders receive any proceeds of collateral securing the Obligations or any other payments with respect to the Obligations, which payment or receipt of proceeds or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be returned or repaid to the Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver, debtor in possession or any other Person, including, without limitation, the Guarantors, under any insolvency or bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment, return or repayment, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date when such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred, and this Guaranty shall continue in full force notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Agent or the Lenders in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights under this Guaranty and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable.

Each Guarantor also guaranties the full, prompt and unconditional performance of all obligations and agreements of every kind owed or hereafter to be owed by the Borrower to the Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party.

(b) Without limiting any other right of the Agent or any of the Lenders, whenever the Agent or the Lenders have the right to declare any of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable (whether or not it has been so declared), Agent and the Lenders at their sole election without notice to the undersigned may appropriate and set off against the Obligations:

(i) any and all indebtedness or other moneys due or to become due to any Guarantor by the Agent or the Lenders in any capacity; and

(ii) any credits or other property belonging to any Guarantor (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) at any time held by or coming into the possession of the Agent or any of the Lenders, or any affiliate of the Agent or any of the Lenders, whether for deposit or otherwise;

whether or not the Obligations or the obligation to pay such moneys owed by the Agent or the Lenders is then due, and the Agent or the Lenders shall be deemed to have exercised such right of set off immediately at the time of such election even though any charge therefor is made or entered on the Agent’s or the Lenders’ records subsequent thereto. The Agent or such Lender agrees to notify such Guarantor in a reasonably practicable time of any such set-off; however, failure to so notify such Guarantor shall not affect the validity of any set-off.

(c) Each Guarantor’s obligation hereunder is to pay the Obligations in full in cash when due according to the Credit Agreement to the extent provided herein, and shall not be affected by any stay or extension of time for payment by the Borrower or any other Guarantor resulting from any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law.

(d) No course of dealing between the Borrower or any Guarantor and the Agent or the Lenders and no act, delay or omission by the Agent or Lenders in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or with respect to any of the Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right or remedy, and no single or partial exercise thereof shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. TheAgent or

the Lenders may remedy any default by the Borrower under any agreement with the Borrower or with respect to any of the Obligations in any reasonable manner without waiving the default remedied and without waiving any other prior or subsequent default by the Borrower. All rights and remedies of the Lenders hereunder are cumulative.

(e) This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and their respective successors and assigns.

(f) Captions of the sections of this Guaranty are solely for the convenience of the Agent, the Lenders and the Guarantors, and are not an aid in the interpretation of this Guaranty and do not constitute part of the agreement of the parties set forth herein.

(g) If any provision of this Guaranty is unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be effective.

(h) EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR ILLINOIS STATE COURT SITTING IN CHICAGO IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

Any expenses incurred in connection with each Debtor’s obligations under this Section 4.1(f) shall be borne by such Debtor. No Debtor shall abandon any right to file a patent, trademark or service

mark application, or abandon any pending patent, application or any other Copyright, Patent or Trademark without the written consent of Secured Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(g) Further Identification of Collateral. Each Debtor shall, when and as often as requested by the Secured Party or its Representative, furnish to the Secured Party or such Representative, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Secured Party or its Representative may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(h) Investment Property. Each Debtor shall take any and all actions required or requested by the Secured Party, from time to time, to (i) cause the Secured Party to obtain exclusive control of any Investment Property owned by Debtor in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Secured Party and (ii) obtain from any issuers of Investment Property and such other Persons, for the benefit of the Secured Party, written confirmation of the Secured Party’s control over such Investment Property; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Secured Party shall not exercise any remedies with regard to any such Investment Property unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. For purposes of this Section 4.1(h), the Secured Party shall have exclusive control of Investment Property if (i) such Investment Property consists of certificated securities and any Debtor delivers such certificated securities to the Secured Party (with appropriate endorsements if such certificated securities are in registered form); (ii) such Investment Property consists of uncertificated securities and either (x) any Debtor delivers such uncertificated securities to the Secured Party or (y) the issuer thereof agrees, pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party, that it shall comply with instructions originated by the Secured Party without further consent by such Debtor, and (iii) such Investment Property consists of security entitlements and either (x) the Secured Party becomes the entitlement holder thereof or (y) the appropriate securities intermediary agrees, pursuant to the documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party, that it shall comply with entitlement orders originated by the Secured Party without further consent by any Debtor.

Each Debtor shall promptly notify Secured Party of any Commercial Tort Claim (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) acquired by it and unless otherwise consented to by Secured Party, such Debtor shall enter into a supplement to this Agreement, granting to Secured Party a Lien on and security interest in such commercial tort claim.

4.2 Other Liens. No Debtor shall create, permit or suffer to exist, and each Debtor shall defend the Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any Lien on the Collateral except Permitted Liens, and shall defend the right, title and interest of the Secured Party in and to the Collateral and in and to all Proceeds thereof against the claims and demands of all Persons whatsoever.

4.3 Preservation of Rights. Whether or not any Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, the Secured Party and its Representative may, but shall not be required to, take any steps the Secured Party or its Representative deems necessary or appropriate to preserve any Collateral or any rights against third parties to any of the Collateral, including obtaining insurance of Collateral at any time when a Debtor has failed to do so, and each Debtor shall promptly pay, or reimburse the Secured Party for, all expenses incurred in connection therewith.

(a) Each Debtor shall, upon the request of the Secured Party, provide to Secured Party a certificate of good standing from its state of incorporation, formation or organization.

(b) Without limiting the prohibition on mergers involving the Debtors contained in the Credit Agreement, no Debtor shall (i) reincorporate or reorganize itself under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated or organized as of the date hereof without the prior written consent of Secured Party, or (ii) otherwise change its name, identity or corporate structure. Each Debtor shall notify Secured Party promptly in writing prior to any change in the proposed use by such Debtor of any tradename or fictitious business name other than any such name set forth on Schedule II attached hereto.

(c) Except for the sale of Inventory and use and repair of Equipment in the ordinary course of business and except as expressly permitted in the Credit Agreement, Debtors shall keep the Collateral at the locations specified in Schedule I. Each Debtor shall give Secured Party thirty (30) day’s prior written notice of any change in such Debtor’s chief place of business or of any new location for any of the Collateral.

(d) If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehousemen, bailee, consignee or processor, each Debtor shall, upon the request of Secured Party or its Representative, notify such warehousemen, bailee, consignee or processor of the Lien and security interest created hereby and shall instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for Secured Party’s account subject to Secured Party’s instructions; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Secured Party shall not issue any such instructions unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(e) Each Debtor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any

financing statement without the prior written consent of Secured Party and agrees that it shall not do so without the prior written consent of Secured Party, subject to such Debtor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) to the Uniform Commercial Code.

(f) No Debtor shall enter into any Contract that restricts or prohibits the grant to Secured Party of a security interest in Accounts, Chattel Paper, Instruments or payment intangibles or the proceeds of the foregoing.

(a) At Secured Party’s request, on or prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, the Secured Party and each Debtor shall enter into a bank agency agreement (“ Bank Agency Agreement ”), in a form reasonably specified by the Secured Party, with each financial institution with which such Debtor maintains from time to time any deposit accounts (general or special), which financial institutions are set forth on Schedule VI attached hereto. Pursuant to the Bank Agency Agreements and pursuant hereto, each Debtor grants and shall grant to the Secured Party a continuing lien upon, and security interest in, all such accounts and all funds at any time paid, deposited, credited or held in such accounts (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) or otherwise in the possession of such financial institutions, and each such financial institution shall act as the Secured Party’s agent in connection therewith. Following the Closing Date, no Debtor shall establish any deposit account with any financial institution unless prior thereto, at the request of Secured Party, the Secured Party and such Debtor shall have entered into a Bank Agency Agreement with such financial institution.

(b) Upon the Secured Party’s request after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Debtor shall establish lock-box or blocked accounts (collectively, “ Blocked Accounts ”) in such Debtor’s name with such banks as are acceptable to the Secured Party (“ Collecting Banks ”), subject to irrevocable instructions in a form reasonably specified by the Secured Party, to which the obligors of all Accounts shall directly remit all payments on Accounts and in which such Debtor shall immediately deposit all cash payments for Inventory or other cash payments constituting proceeds of Collateral in the identical form in which such payment was made, whether by cash or check. In addition, the Secured Party may establish one or more depository accounts at each Collecting Bank or at a centrally located bank (collectively, the “Depository Account ”). All amounts held or deposited in the Blocked Accounts held by such Collecting Bank shall be transferred to the Depository Account without any further notice or action required by Secured Party. Subject to the foregoing, each Debtor hereby agrees that all payments received by the Secured Party or any Lender whether by cash, check, wire transfer or any other instrument, made to such Blocked Accounts or otherwise received by the Secured Party or any Lender and whether in respect of the Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral or otherwise shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Secured Party for the benefit of the Secured Party and the Lenders. Each Debtor, and any of its

Affiliates, employees, agents and other Persons acting for or in concert with such Debtor shall, acting as trustee for the Secured Party, receive, as the sole and exclusive property of the Secured Party, any moneys, checks, notes, drafts or other payments relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into the possession or under the control of such Debtor or any Affiliates, employees, agent or other Persons acting for or in concert with such Debtor, and immediately upon receipt thereof, such Debtor or Persons shall deposit the same or cause the same to be deposited in kind, in a Blocked Account.

4.6 Events of Default, Etc. During the period during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) each Debtor shall, at the request of the Secured Party or its Representative, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party or its Representative at a place or places designated by the Secured Party or its Representative which are reasonably convenient to Secured Party or its Representative, as applicable, and such Debtor;

(b) the Secured Party or its Representative may 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;

(c) the Secured Party shall have all of the rights, claims and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not said Uniform Commercial Code 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, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Secured Party were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Debtor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

(d) the Secured Party or its Representative in their discretion may, in the name of the Secured Party or in the name of a Debtor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or 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;

(e) the Secured Party, or its Representative, may take immediate possession and occupancy of any premises owned, used or leased by a Debtor and exercise all other rights and remedies of an assignee which may be available to the Secured Party; and

(f) the Secured Party may, upon ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Debtors of the time and place (which notice the Debtors hereby agree

is commercially reasonable notification for purposes hereof), with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Secured Party or its Representative, sell, lease, license, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Secured Party 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 above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, licensee, 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 any Debtor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. The Secured Party 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 4.6 shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.9 hereof.

4.7 Deficiency . If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Liabilities, the Debtors shall remain liable for any deficiency.

4.8 Private Sale. Each Debtor recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Collateral consisting of securities by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act” ), and applicable state securities laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who shall be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that any such 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 be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Collateral to permit Debtor to register such Collateral for public sale under the Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Debtor would agree to do so. The Secured Party shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale of any such Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale provided for in this Agreement conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, and each Debtor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Liabilities, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

Each Debtor further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any portion or all of any such Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at such Debtor’s expense, provided that the Debtors shall be under no obligation to take any action to enable any or all of such Collateral to be registered under the provisions of the Act. Each Debtor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 4.8 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in this Section 4.8 shall be specifically enforceable against the Debtors, and each Debtor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

4.9 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral, and any other cash at the time held by the Secured Party under this Agreement, shall be applied to the Liabilities in the manner set forth in Section 1.10 of the Credit Agreement.

4.10 Attorney-in-Fact. Each Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Debtor and in the name of such Debtor or in its own name, from time to time, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the discretion of the Secured Party, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Secured Party the power and right, on behalf of such Debtor, without notice to or assent by such Debtor, to do the following upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default:

(a) to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittance and receipts for any and all moneys due and to become due under any Collateral and, in the name of such Debtor or its own name or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other Instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured Party for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever payable and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Secured Party for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever payable;

(b) to pay or discharge charges or liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral (other than the Permitted Liens), to effect any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor;

(c) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due, and to become due thereunder, directly to the Secured Party or as the Secured Party shall direct, and to receive payment of and receipt for any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due, and to become due at any time, in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;

(d) to sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts and other Documents constituting or relating to the Collateral;

(e) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral;

(f) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against a Debtor with respect to any Collateral;

(g) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Secured Party may deem appropriate;

(h) to the extent that a Debtor’s authorization given in Section 4.1(b) of this Agreement is not sufficient, to file such financing statements with respect to this Agreement, or to file a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as the Secured Party may deem appropriate, and to execute in such Debtor’s name such financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require such Debtor’s signature; and

(i) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owners thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Secured Party’s option and at such Debtor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party reasonably deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party’s Lien therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Debtor might do.

Each Debtor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that such attorneys lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of attorney granted hereunder is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full and the Credit Agreement is terminated.

Each Debtor also authorizes the Secured Party, at any time from and after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, (x) to communicate in its own name with any party to any Contract with regard to the assignment of the right, title and interest of such Debtor in and under the Contracts hereunder and other matters relating thereto and (y) to execute, in connection with any sale of Collateral provided for in Section 4.5 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.

4.11 Perfection . Prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Debtor shall:

(a) file such financing statements, assignments for security and other documents in such offices as may be necessary or as the Secured Party or the Representative may request to perfect the security interests granted by Section 3 of this Agreement;

(b) at Secured Party’s request, deliver to the Secured Party or its Representative the originals of all Instruments together with, in the case of Instruments constituting promissory notes, allonges attached thereto showing such promissory notes to be payable to the order of a blank payee; and

(c) at Secured Party’s request, deliver to the Secured Party or its Representative the originals of all Motor Vehicle titles, duly endorsed indicating the Secured Party’s interest therein as lienholder.

4.12 Termination. This Agreement and the Liens and security interests granted hereunder shall not terminate until the termination of the Credit Agreement and the full and complete performance and indefeasible satisfaction of all the Liabilities (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which a claim has not then been asserted), whereupon the Secured Party shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral to or on the order of the Debtors. The Secured Party shall also execute and deliver to the Debtors upon such termination such Uniform Commercial Code termination statements, certificates for terminating the liens on the Motor Vehicles (if any) and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the Debtors to effect the termination and release of the Liens and security interests in favor of the Secured Party affecting the Collateral.

4.13 Further Assurances. (a) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Secured Party or its Representative, and at the sole expense of the Debtors, each Debtor shall promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments, documents and agreements and take such further actions as the Secured Party or its Representative may reasonably require in order for the Secured Party to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted in favor of the Secured Party, including, without limitation, using the Debtors’ commercially reasonable efforts to secure all consents and approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to the Secured Party of any Collateral held by the Debtors

or in which any Debtor has any rights not heretofore assigned, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the liens and security interests granted hereby, transferring Collateral to the Secured Party’s possession (if a security interest in such Collateral can be perfected by possession), placing the interest of the Secured Party as lienholder on the certificate of title of any Motor Vehicle and obtaining waivers of liens from landlords and mortgagees. Each Debtor also hereby authorizes the Secured Party and its Representative to file any such financing or continuation statement without the signature of such Debtor to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(b) Upon the request of the Secured Party, each Debtor shall procure insurers’ acknowledgements of any assignments of key man life insurance policies which may be assigned to the Secured Party as additional security for the Liabilities (if any) and shall take all such further action as required by any insurer or the Secured Party in connection with any such assignment.

4.14 Limitation on Duty of Secured Party. The powers conferred on the Secured Party under this Agreement are solely to protect the Secured Party’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither the Secured Party nor its Representative nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Debtors for any act or failure to act, except to the extent constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction on a final and non-appealable basis. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Party and any Representative shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in their possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Secured Party or any Representative, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of the type of Collateral involved, it being understood and agreed that neither the Secured Party nor any Representative shall have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps (other than steps taken in accordance with the standard of care set forth above) to preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral.

Also without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Secured Party nor any Representative shall have any obligation or liability under any Contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the granting to the Secured Party of a security interest therein or assignment thereof or the receipt by the Secured Party or any Representative of any payment relating to any Contract or license pursuant hereto, nor shall the Secured Party or any Representative be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of the Debtors under or pursuant to any Contract or license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Contract or license, or to present or file any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

5.1 No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Secured Party or any of its Representatives to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Secured Party or any of its Representatives of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.

5.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws and decisions of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof.

5.3 Notices. All notices, demands and requests that any party is required or elects to give to any other party shall be given in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

5.4 Amendments, Etc. The terms of this Agreement may be waived, altered or amended only by an instrument in writing duly executed by the Debtors and the Secured Party. Any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Secured Party and the Debtors and their respective successors and assigns.

5.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto, provided, that no Debtor shall assign or transfer its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

5.6 Counterparts; Headings. This Agreement may be authenticated in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may authenticate this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. This Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile or, if approved in writing by Secured Party, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not alter or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

5.7 Severability. If any provision hereof is invalid and unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Secured Party and its Representative in order to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible and (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

5.8 Other Loan Documents. This Agreement supplements the other Loan Documents and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or supersede the rights granted to Agent or the Secured Party or the Lenders or their agent in any other Loan Document. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall govern.

5.9 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF VENUE. (A) EACH DEBTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR ILLINOIS STATE COURT SITTING IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH DEBTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF SECURED PARTY TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY DEBTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY DEBTOR AGAINST SECURED PARTY OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF INVOLVING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO OR CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.

(B) EACH DEBTOR HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON IT BY MAIL SHALL CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

5.10 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. EACH DEBTOR AND SECURED PARTY EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

5.11 Joint and Several. The obligations, covenants and agreements of the Debtors hereunder shall be the joint and several obligations, covenants and agreements of each Debtor, whether or not specifically stated herein.

Section 5. Administration of Security. The following provisions shall govern the administration of the Pledged Shares:

(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Pledgor shall be entitled (subject to the other provisions hereof, including, without limitation, Section 8 below):

(i) to vote or consent with respect to the Pledged Shares in any manner not inconsistent with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other “Loan Documents” referred to therein; and

(ii) to receive cash dividends or other distributions in the ordinary course made in respect of the Pledged Shares, to the extent permitted to be paid pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

Pledgor hereby grants to Pledgee or its nominee, on behalf of Pledgee and Lenders, an irrevocable proxy to exercise all voting and corporate rights relating to the Pledged Shares in any instance, including, without limitation, to approve any merger involving any Subsidiary as a constituent corporation, which proxy shall only be exercisable immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon the request of Pledgee, Pledgor agrees to deliver to Pledgee, on behalf of Pledgee and Lenders, such further evidence of such irrevocable proxy or such further irrevocable proxies to vote the Pledged Shares as Pledgee may reasonably request.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event that Pledgor, as record and beneficial owner of the Pledged Shares, shall have received or shall have become entitled to receive, any cash dividends or other distributions in the ordinary course, Pledgor shall deliver to Pledgee, for the benefit of Pledgee and the Lenders, and Pledgee, for its own benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, shall be entitled to receive and retain, all such cash or other distributions as additional Pledged Collateral.

(c) Subject to any sale or other disposition by Pledgee, on behalf of the Pledgee and Lenders, of the Pledged Shares or other property pursuant to this Agreement, the Pledged Shares and any other Pledged Collateral shall be delivered to Pledgor upon full payment in cash, satisfaction and termination of all of the Liabilities and the termination of the lien and security interest hereby granted pursuant to Section 14 hereof.

Section 6. Rights of Pledgee. Neither Pledgee nor any of the Lenders shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon the Obligations or any collateral security or guaranty therefor, or any part thereof, or for any delay in so doing, nor shall Pledgee or any of the Lenders be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. Any or all of the Pledged Shares held by Pledgee hereunder may, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be registered in the name of Pledgee or its nominee and Pledgee or its nominee may thereafter without notice exercise all voting and corporate rights at any meeting with respect to Borrower and exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any of the Pledged Shares as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including, without limitation, the right to vote in favor of, and to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Shares upon, the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment with respect to Borrower or upon the exercise by Pledgor or Pledgee of any right, privilege or option pertaining to any of the Pledged Shares, and in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Shares with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as Pledgee may determine, all without liability except to account for property actually received by Pledgee, but Pledgee shall have no duty to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

Section 7. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgee, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon Pledgor or any other person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and/or notices are hereby expressly waived), may forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of (including the disposition by merger) and deliver said Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, in one or more portions at public or private sale or sales or transactions, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of Pledgee’s offices or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as Pledgee may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for any combination of cash and/or securities or other property or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, with the right to Pledgee upon any such sale or sales, public or private, to purchase the whole or any part of said Pledged Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Pledgor, which right or equity is hereby expressly waived or released. Pledgee, for its own benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization, sale or disposition, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the safekeeping of any and all of the Pledged Collateral or in any way relating to the rights of Pledgee or any of the Lenders hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, to the payment, in whole or in part, of the Liabilities in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Only after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by Pledgee of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615 of the UCC, need Pledgee, on behalf of the Lenders, account for the surplus, if

any, to Pledgor. Pledgor shall remain liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application. Pledgor agrees that Pledgee need not give more than ten (10) days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale or other intended disposition is to take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to Pledgor if Pledgor has signed after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to Pledgee for the benefit of the Lenders in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Liabilities, Pledgee and the Lenders shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and under any other applicable law.

Section 8. No Disposition, etc. Without the prior written consent of Pledgee, Pledgor agrees that Pledgor will not sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Pledged Shares or any other Pledged Collateral, nor will Pledgor create, incur or permit to exist any pledge, lien, mortgage, hypothecation, security interest, charge, option or any other encumbrance with respect to any of the Pledged Shares, any other Pledged Collateral or any interest therein, or any proceeds thereof, except for the lien and security interest provided for by this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of Pledgee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom), Pledgor agrees that it will not vote to enable, and will not otherwise permit, Borrower to (a) issue any stock or other securities of any nature in addition to or in exchange or substitution for the Pledged Shares or (b) dissolve, liquidate, retire any of its capital stock, reduce its capital or merge or consolidate with any other Person.

(a) Pledgor recognizes that Pledgee, for its own benefit and on behalf of Lenders, may be unable to effect a public sale or disposition (including, without limitation, any disposition in connection with a merger of Borrower) of any or all the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and applicable state securities laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales or dispositions thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale or disposition may result in prices and other terms (including the terms of any securities or other property received in connection therewith) less favorable to the seller than if such sale or disposition were a public sale or disposition and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale or disposition shall be deemed to be reasonable and affected in a commercially reasonable manner. Pledgee shall be under no obligation to delay a sale or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral in order to permit Pledgor or Borrower to register such securities for public sale Under the Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if Pledgor or Borrower would agree to do so.

dispositions, all at Pledgor’s expense. Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 2, 4, 5(b), 8, 9 or 10 hereof will cause irreparable injury to Pledgee and the Lenders, that Pledgee and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees, without limiting the right of Pledgee to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of Pledgor contained in this Agreement, that each and every covenant referenced above shall be specifically enforceable against Pledgor, and Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(c) Pledgor further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Pledgee and the Lenders, each of their respective successors and assigns, officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person in control of any thereof, from and against any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees (collectively called the “Indemnified Liabilities”), under federal and state securities laws or otherwise insofar as such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense:

(i) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or offering memorandum or in any preliminary prospectus or preliminary offering memorandum or in any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing or in any other writing prepared in connection with the offer, sale or resale of all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral unless such untrue statement of material fact was provided by Pledgee specifically for inclusion therein; or

(ii) arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

such indemnification to remain operative regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Pledgee or any successor thereof, or any Person in control of any thereof. In connection with a public sale or other distribution, Pledgor will provide customary indemnification to any underwriters, their respective successors and assigns, their respective officers and directors and each Person who controls any such underwriter (within the meaning of the Act). If and to the extent that the foregoing undertakings in this Section 9(c) may be unenforceable for any reason, Pledgor agrees to make maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The obligations of Pledgor under this Section 9(c) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(d) Pledgor further agrees to waive any and all rights of subrogation it may have against Borrower upon the sale or sales or dispositions of any portion or all of the Pledged Collateral by Pledgee.

Section 10. Further Assurances. Pledgor agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Pledgee, Pledgor will execute and deliver all stock powers, financing statements and such further documents and do such further acts and things as Pledgee may reasonably request consistent with the provisions hereof in order to effect the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 11. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12. No Waiver: Cumulative Remedies. Neither Pledgee nor any of the Lenders shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its remedies hereunder, and no waiver by Pledgee or any Lender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Pledgee or such Lender and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Pledgee, or any Lender, of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Pledgee, or such Lender, would otherwise have on any further occasion. No course of dealing between Pledgor and Pledgee or any Lender and no failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising on the part of Pledgee or any Lender of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 13. Successors. This Agreement and all obligations of Pledgor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Pledgor, and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Pledgee and the Lenders hereunder, inure to the benefit of Pledgee and the Lenders and their successors and assigns, except that Pledgor shall not have any right to assign its obligations under this Agreement or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Pledgee.

Section 14. Termination. This Agreement and the liens and security interests granted hereunder shall terminate upon indefeasible full and complete performance and satisfaction of the Liabilities (other than contingent indemnification obligations), and promptly upon such full and complete performance and satisfaction, Pledgee shall surrender the certificates evidencing the Pledged Shares to Pledgor.

Section 15. Possession of Pledged Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Pledged Collateral in the physical possession of Pledgee pursuant hereto, neither Pledgee nor any nominee of Pledgee shall have any duty or liability to collect any sums due in respect thereof or to protect, preserve or exercise any rights pertaining thereto, and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral upon surrendering them to Pledgor.

Section 16. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of Pledgor contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Section 17. Taxes and Expenses. To the extent not paid by Borrower, Pledgor will upon demand pay to Pledgee all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for Pledgee and of any experts and agents that Pledgee may incur in connection with:

(b) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral;

Section 18. Pledgee Appointed Attorney-In-Fact. Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Pledgee as Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with full authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time in Pledgee’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that Pledgee deems reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to Pledgor representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same, when and to the extent permitted by this Agreement.

NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF PLEDGEE TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST PLEDGOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY PLEDGOR AGAINST PLEDGEE OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.

(b) PLEDGOR HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE UPON IT BY MAIL SHALL CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE.

(c) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Pledgor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Pledgor enforceable in accordance

with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, moratorium, reorganization and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally;

(g) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Pledgor will not violate any provision of any applicable law or regulation or of any order, judgment, writ, award or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority, domestic or foreign, or of the charter or by-laws of Pledgor or Panther Sub or of any securities issued by Borrower or of any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract, or other agreement, instrument or undertaking to which Pledgor or Panther Sub is a party or which purports to be binding upon Pledgor or Panther Sub or upon any of their respective assets, and will not result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance on or security interest in any of the assets of Pledgor or Panther Sub except as contemplated by this Agreement; and

Stock Dividends, Distributions, etc. If, while this Agreement is in effect, Pledgor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any stock certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate representing a stock dividend or a stock distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital, or issued in connection with any reorganization, merger or consolidation), or any options or rights, whether as an addition to, in substitution for, or in exchange for any of the Pledged Shares, or otherwise, Pledgor agrees to accept the same as Pledgee’s agent and to hold the same in trust for Pledgee, and to deliver the same forthwith to Pledgee in the exact form received, with the endorsement of Pledgor when necessary and/or appropriate undated stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by

Pledgee, for the benefit of Pledgee and the Lenders, subject to the terms hereof, as additional Pledged Collateral. In case any distribution of capital shall be made on or in respect of the Pledged Shares or any property shall be distributed upon or with respect to the Pledged Shares pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of the issuer thereof or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, the property so distributed shall be delivered to Pledgee to be held by it as additional Pledged Collateral. Except as provided in subsection 5(a)(ii) below, all sums of money and property so paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Shares which are received by Pledgor shall, until paid or delivered to Pledgee, be held by Pledgor in trust as additional Pledged Collateral.

Section 5. Administration of Security. The following provisions shall govern the administration of the Pledged Shares:

(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Pledgor shall be entitled (subject to the other provisions hereof, including, without limitation, Section 8 below):

(i) to vote or consent with respect to the Pledged Shares in any manner not inconsistent with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other “Loan Documents” referred to therein; and

(ii) to receive cash dividends or other distributions in the ordinary course made in respect of the Pledged Shares, to the extent permitted to be paid pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

Section 6. Rights of Pledgee. Neither Pledgee nor any of the Lenders shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon the Obligations or any collateral security or guaranty therefor, or any part thereof, or for any delay in so doing, nor shall Pledgee or any of the Lenders be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. Any or all of the Pledged Shares held by Pledgee hereunder may, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be registered in the name of Pledgee or its nominee and Pledgee or its nominee may thereafter without notice exercise all voting and corporate rights at any meeting with respect to Panther Sub and exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any of the Pledged. Shares as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including, without limitation, the right to vote in favor of, and to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Shares upon, the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment with respect to Panther Sub or upon the exercise by Pledgor or Pledgee of any right, privilege or option pertaining to any of the Pledged Shares and in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Shares with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as Pledgee may determine, all without liability except to account for property actually received by Pledgee, but Pledgee shall have no duty to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

continuance of an Event of Default a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to Pledgee for the benefit of the Lenders in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Liabilities, Pledgee and the Lenders shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and under any other applicable law.

Section 8. No Disposition, etc. Without the prior written consent of Pledgee, Pledgor agrees that Pledgor will not sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Pledged Shares or any other Pledged Collateral, nor will Pledgor create, incur or permit to exist any pledge, lien, mortgage, hypothecation, security interest, charge, option or any other encumbrance with respect to any of the Pledged Shares, any other Pledged Collateral or any interest therein, or any proceeds thereof, except for the lien and security interest provided for by this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of Pledgee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom), Pledgor agrees that it will not vote to enable, and will not otherwise permit, Panther Sub to (a) issue any stock or other securities of any nature in addition to or in exchange or substitution for the Pledged Shares or (b) dissolve, liquidate, retire any of its capital stock, reduce its capital or merge or consolidate with any other Person.

(a) Pledgor recognizes that Pledgee, for its own benefit and on behalf of Lenders, may be unable to effect a public sale or disposition (including, without limitation, any disposition in connection with a merger of Panther Sub) of any or all the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and applicable state securities laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales or dispositions thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale or disposition may result in prices and other terms (including the terms of any securities or other property received in connection therewith) less favorable to the seller than if such sale or disposition were a public sale or disposition and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale or disposition shall be deemed to be reasonable and affected in a commercially reasonable manner. Pledgee shall be under no obligation to delay a sale or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral in order to permit Pledgor or Panther Sub to register such securities for public sale under the Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if Pledgor or Panther Sub would agree to do so.

(b) Pledgor further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale or sales or dispositions of any portion or all of the Pledged Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales or dispositions, all at Pledgor’s expense. Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 2, 4, 5(b), 8, 9 or 10 hereof will cause irreparable injury to Pledgee and the Lenders, that Pledgee and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees, without limiting the right of Pledgee to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of Pledgor contained in this

Agreement, that each and every covenant referenced above shall be specifically enforceable against Pledgor, and Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(ii) arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(d) Pledgor further agrees to waive any and all rights of subrogation it may have against Panther Sub upon the sale or sales or dispositions of any portion or all of the Pledged Collateral by Pledgee.

Section 12. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither Pledgee nor any of the Lenders shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its remedies hereunder, and no waiver by Pledgee or any Lender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Pledgee or such Lender and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Pledgee, or any Lender, of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Pledgee, or such Lender, would otherwise have on any further occasion. No course of dealing between Pledgor and Pledgee or any Lender and no failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising on the part of Pledgee or any Lender of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 16. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of Pledgor contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(b) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral;

Section 18. Pledgee Appointed Attorney-In-Fact . Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Pledgee as Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with full authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time in Pledgee’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that Pledgee deems reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to Pledgor representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same, when and to the extent permitted by this Agreement.

Section 19. Notices . All notices, approvals, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and delivered by hand or by nationally recognized overnight courier, or sent by first class mail or sent by telecopy (with such telecopy to be confirmed promptly in writing sent by first class mail), sent:

NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF PLEDGEE TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST PLEDGOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY PLEDGOR AGAINST PLEDGEE OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.

PLEDGOR AND PLEDGEE EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISIONS HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT.

(a) Each of Bank, Borrower and Agent acknowledge that, in order to secure the prompt and complete payment, performance and observance of all “Obligations” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Borrower has granted, and for avoidance of doubt and without limiting any prior grant, does hereby grant, to the Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, a continuing lien upon, and security interest in, the Accounts and all funds, checks, cash, items and other things of value at any time paid, deposited, credited or held in, payable or withdrawable from or in transit to any Account (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise), and all other property of the Borrower from time to time in the possession or under the control of, or in transit to, the Bank or any agent, bailee or custodian therefor, and all proceeds of all of the foregoing (collectively, the “Account Collateral” ).

(b) At all times when the Agent states in writing to the Bank that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) the Bank agrees to comply with instructions originated by Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Accounts or any other Account Collateral or to take such other action as shall from time to time be specified in writing from the Agent, in all cases without notice to or the consent of the Borrower, (ii) the Bank shall follow the instructions of the Agent as to the holding, investment and transfer of all Account Collateral (including, without limitation, any instructions to transfer such collected amounts to Agent or to an account designated by Agent), (iii) Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Bank to comply with any such instructions by Agent without further action or consent by Borrower and notwithstanding any subsequent objection or contrary direction the Bank may receive from Borrower, (iv) Borrower agrees that the Bank may act as the agent of the Agent in exercising any rights of set-off provided by applicable law or by any Loan Document as to any Account Collateral and (v) the Borrower agrees that the Bank shall be entitled to rely, without independent investigation, on any statement of the Agent to the effect that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or to the effect that any exercise of set-off requested by the Agent is permitted under applicable law or any Loan Document.

(c) Without limiting or qualifying the provisions of clause (b) above, the Agent hereby appoints the Bank as the Agent’s agent and pledgee-in-possession for the Accounts and all Account Collateral, for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s security interest therein; and the Bank by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower hereby agrees to such appointment of the Bank and further agrees that the Bank, on behalf of the Agent, shall be or willful misconduct of, or breach of this Agreement by, the Bank or its officers, agents or employees.

entitled to exercise, upon the instructions of the Agent and in accordance with this agreement, any and all rights that the Agent may have under that certain Credit Agreement and all other agreements and instruments executed pursuant thereto, or under applicable law, with respect to the Accounts and the Account Collateral.

3. Borrower’s Access to Accounts . Agent agrees that, until such time as Bank receives written notice from Agent of the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, Borrower shall be allowed access to the Accounts and the Account Collateral without Agent’s further consent (including, without limitation, presenting items drawn on the Accounts or giving Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or other disposition of any funds from time to time credited to the Accounts). Upon receipt by Bank of notice by Agent of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, and at all times thereafter until the Agent notifies the Bank otherwise, the Borrower shall not be entitled to access to the Accounts or the Account Collateral and the Bank shall not comply with any instructions or directions originated by Borrower or otherwise permit Borrower access to or control over the Accounts or the Account Collateral, including without limitation giving stop payment orders, presenting items for payment or making withdrawals therefrom.

4. Irrevocable Agreement . The Borrower hereby agrees and acknowledges that the agreements made by it and the authorizations granted by it herein are irrevocable and that the authorizations granted herein are powers coupled with an interest.

5. Set-off . The Bank hereby waives all existing and future rights of recoupment or set-off and banker’s liens against the Accounts and the Account Collateral, except those rights of set-off and banker’s liens arising in connection with (a) items deposited in the Accounts that are subsequently returned to the Bank unpaid and (b) any compensation and expenses owing and payable to Bank with respect to the Accounts which are assessed in accordance with the Bank’s standard account documentation.

6. Account Information . The Bank shall provide the Agent, at the address indicated in Section 11 below, with such information with respect to the Accounts and Account Collateral as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request, including, without limitation, and if requested by Agent, duplicate copies of all bank statements which are sent to Borrower. The Borrower hereby consents to such information being provided to the Agent.

7. Exculpation . The Bank undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the Bank shall not be liable for any action taken by it or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees in accordance with this Agreement. In no event shall the Bank be liable for indirect, special or consequential damages.

8. Indemnity . The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Bank and hold it harmless against any other loss, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other litigation expenses) which it may suffer as a direct result of the Bank’s entering into this Agreement and performing its obligation hereunder, including, honoring any instructions or direction it receives from the Agent with respect to the Accounts during the term of this Agreement, other than any loss, damage or expense incurred as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or breach of this Agreement by, the Bank or its officers, agents or employees.

9. No Other Assignments . Bank represents and warrants to Agent that no other notices of assignment of, lien upon or security interest in the Accounts or the Account Collateral are reflected in Bank’s records concerning the Accounts and Bank has no knowledge of any such assignment or lien. Borrower hereby instructs Bank and Bank hereby agrees to record in Bank’s records concerning the Accounts any such notice of assignment of the Accounts that it receives, including the notice conferred by this Agreement. Bank agrees with and covenants to Agent that it shall not enter into any other agreement with any Person which would obligate Bank to follow such Person’s instructions with respect to the Account or the Account Collateral, or which would otherwise confer control of the Accounts or the Account Collateral upon such Person.

10. Termination . This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Agent shall deliver written notice to the Bank of such termination. Upon payment in full of all Obligations and termination of all commitments to lend under the Credit Agreement, Agent shall notify Bank promptly thereof and of the termination of this Agreement. All rights of the Bank under Sections 7 and 8 for the period prior to any such termination shall survive such termination.

11. Notices . All notices, requests or other communications given to the Borrower, the Agent or the Bank hereunder shall be given in writing (including facsimile transmission), at the address specified below:

Any party may change its address for notices hereunder by written notice to each other party hereunder. Each notice, request or other communication shall be effective (a) if given by facsimile, when such facsimile is transmitted and electronic confirmation is received, (b) if given by mail

12. Applicable Law . THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, AND THE BANK’S JURISDICTION FOR PURPOSES OF SECTION 9-304 OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SHALL BE NEW YORK.

13. Miscellaneous Provisions . This Agreement shall supersede any other agreement (to the extent conflicting herewith) relating to the matters referred to herein, including any conflicting provision of the Bank’s customary account documentation or any other account agreement between the Borrower and the Bank. This Agreement is binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any trustee of the Borrower appointed or elected in any action under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended) and shall inure to their benefit. This Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived orally, except by a writing signed by the parties hereto, provided that any such writing need be signed only by the Bank and the Agent if it does not change any rights or obligations of, or authorizations granted by, the Borrower hereunder and notice thereof is provided to the Borrower by the Agent. Any provision of this Agreement that may prove unenforceable under any law or regulation shall not affect the validity of any other provision hereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

ANTARES CAPITAL CORPORATION, in its capacity as Agent for the Lenders

By:		[ILLEGIBLE]
Its:		Director

AGREEMENT dated as of June 10, 2005, by and among PTHR Holdings, Inc. (“Company”), Antares Capital Corporation (“Lender”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Depositary”).

The parties hereto refer to Account No. xxxxxxxxx in the name of Company maintained at Depositary (the “Account”) and hereby agree as follows:

1. Company and Lender notify Depositary that by separate agreement Company has granted Lender a security interest in the Account and all funds on deposit from time to time therein. Depositary acknowledges being so notified.

2. Prior to the Effective Time (as defined below) Depositary shall honor all withdrawal, payment, transfer or other fund disposition or other instructions (collectively, “instructions”) received from the Company (but not those from Lender) concerning the Account. On and after the Effective Time (and without Company’s consent), Depositary shall honor all instructions received from Lender (but not those from Company) concerning the Account and Company shall have no right or ability to access or withdraw or transfer funds from the Account.

For the purposes hereof, the “Effective Time” shall be the opening of business on the second business day next succeeding the business day on which a notice purporting to be signed by Lender in substantially the same form as Exhibit A, attached hereto, with a copy of this Agreement attached thereto (a “Shifting Control Notice”), is actually received by the individual employee of Depositary to whom the notice is required hereunder to be addressed; provided, however, that if any such notice is so received after 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any business day, the “Effective Time” shall be the opening of business on the third business day next succeeding the business day on which such receipt occurs; and, provided further, that a “business day” is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which Depositary is or is authorized or required by law to be closed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) all transactions involving or resulting in a transaction involving the Account duly commenced by Depositary or any affiliate prior to the Effective Time and so consummated or processed thereafter shall be deemed not to constitute a violation of this Agreement; and (ii) Depositary and/or any affiliate may (at its discretion and without any obligation to do so) commence honoring solely Lender’s instructions concerning the Account at any time or from time to time after it becomes aware that Lender has sent to it a Shifting Control Notice but prior to the Effective Time therefor (including without limitation halting, reversing or redirecting any transaction referred to in clause (i) above) with no liability whatsoever to Company or any other party for doing so.

3. This Agreement supplements, rather than replaces, Depositary’s deposit account agreement, terms and conditions and other standard documentation in effect from time to time with respect to the Account or services provided in connection with the Account (the “Account Documentation”), which Account Documentation will continue to apply to the Account and such services, and the respective rights, powers, duties, obligations, liabilities and responsibilities of the parties thereto and hereto, to the extent not expressly conflicting with the provisions of this Agreement (however, in the event of any such conflict, the provisions of this Agreement shall control). Prior to issuing any instructions on or after the Effective Time, Lender shall provide Depositary with such Account Documentation as Depositary may reasonably request to establish the identity and authority of the individuals issuing instructions on behalf of Lender.

4. Depositary agrees not to exercise or claim any right of offset, banker’s lien or other like right against the Account for so long as this Agreement is in effect except with respect to (i) returned or charged-back items, (ii) reversals or cancellations of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers, (iii) Depositary’s charges, fees and expenses with respect to the Account or the services provided hereunder or (iv) overdrafts in the Account

5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement: (i) Depositary shall have only the duties and responsibilities with respect to the matters set forth herein as is expressly set forth in writing herein and shall not be deemed to be an agent, bailee or fiduciary for any party hereto; (ii) Depositary shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith without investigation on any notice (including without limitation a Shifting Control Notice), instruction or request purportedly furnished to it by Company or Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in which case the parties hereto agree that Depositary has no duty to make any further inquiry whatsoever; (iii) it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that Depositary has no knowledge of (and is not required to know) the terms and provisions of the separate agreement referred to in paragraph 1 above or any other related documentation or whether any actions by Lender (including without limitation the sending of a Shifting Control Notice), Company or any other person or entity are permitted or a breach thereunder or consistent or inconsistent therewith, (iv) Depositary shall not be liable to any party hereto or any other person for any action or failure to act under or in connection with this Agreement except to the extent such conduct constitutes its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (and to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall under no circumstances be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages); and (v) Depositary shall not be liable for losses or delays caused by force majeure, interruption or malfunction of computer, transmission or communications facilities, labor difficulties, court order or decree, the commencement of bankruptcy or other similar proceedings or other matters beyond Depositary’s reasonable control.

6. Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Depositary against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel who may be an employee of Depositary) (collectively, “Covered Items”) incurred in connection with this Agreement or the Account (except to the extent due to Depositary’s willful misconduct or gross negligence) or any interpleader proceeding relating thereto or incurred at Company’s direction or instruction. Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Depositary against any Covered Items incurred (i) on or after the Effective Time in connection with this Agreement or the Account (except to the extent due to Depositary’s willful misconduct or gross negligence) or any interpleader proceeding related thereto, (ii) at Lender’s direction or instruction (including without limitation Depositary’s honoring of a Shifting Control Notice) or (iii) due to any claim by Lender of an interest in the Account or the funds on deposit therein.

7. Depositary may terminate this Agreement (a) in its discretion upon the sending of at least thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to the other parties hereto or (b) because of a material breach by Company or Lender of any of the terms of this Agreement or the Account Documentation, upon the sending of at least five (5) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto. Any other termination or any amendment or waiver of this Agreement shall be effected solely by an instrument in writing executed by all the parties hereto. The provisions of paragraphs 5 and 6 above shall survive any such termination.

8. Company shall compensate Depositary for the opening and administration of the Account and services provided hereunder in accordance with Depositary’s fee schedules from time to time in effect. Payment will be effected by a direct debit to the Account.

9. This Agreement: (i) may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument; (ii) shall become effective when counterparts hereof have been signed and delivered by the parties hereto; and (iii) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. All parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding relating to the Account or this Agreement. All notices under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent (including via facsimile transmission) to the parties hereto at their respective addresses or fax numbers set forth below (or to such other address or fax number as any such party shall designate in writing to the other parties from time to time).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

This constitutes a Shifting Control Notice as referred to in paragraph 2 of the Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto.
