(c) The Pledgors shall defend the Pledgors’ title to the Collateral, subject to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Banks, against the claims and demands of all Persons which could reasonably be expected to affect the Pledgors’ title to the Collateral.

Each Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees to take all actions required under Section 5(b) and any other actions necessary to create for the benefit of the Collateral Agent a valid, first priority, perfected security interest in, and a first lien upon, such Eligible Collateral, as to which the Collateral Agent will have Control.

(b) Any delivery of any securities, security entitlements or any other financial assets as Collateral to the Collateral Agent (or, upon direction of the Collateral Agent, to its nominee or sub-custodian) by the Pledgors shall be effected (i) in the case of Collateral consisting of certificated securities registered in the name of either Pledgor, by delivery of certificates representing such securities to the Collateral Agent (or, upon direction of the Collateral Agent, to its nominee or sub-custodian), accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps, and in suitable form for transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank (including any related documentation required by the transfer agent for such securities in connection with effecting or registering transfer), with signatures appropriately guaranteed, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, (ii) in the case of Collateral consisting of uncertificated securities registered in the name of either Pledgor, by transmission by the relevant Pledgor of an instruction to the issuer of such securities instructing such issuer to register such securities in the name of the Collateral Agent (or, upon direction of the Collateral Agent, to its

17


(e) Promptly after any request therefor, the Collateral Agent shall provide such information regarding the Collateral as the Pledgors or any Bank may from time to time reasonably request, such as the number of Pledged Shares held as Collateral in the Collateral Account and the balance on deposit, if any, in the Cash Collateral Account at such time.

SECTION 6. Income and Voting Rights in Collateral. (a) The Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive and retain as Collateral hereunder all proceeds of the Collateral, including any Cash Distributions in respect of the Collateral, and the Pledgors shall take all such action as the Initial Banks or the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to give effect to such right. All such proceeds including, without limitation, all Cash Distributions and other payments and distributions in respect of the Collateral that are received by either Pledgor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Banks and, if the Collateral Agent so directs, shall be segregated from other funds of Pledgor and shall, forthwith upon demand by the Collateral Agent, be paid over to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the same form as received (with any necessary endorsement) for deposit into the Cash Collateral Account. Any Cash Distribution deposited pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall, at the Pledgors’ written request, be withdrawn and applied to pay obligations under the ISDA Agreements or hereunder that are then due and payable; provided that after giving effect to such application of funds, the LtV shall be less than 50%.

(b) Unless an Acceleration Event shall have occurred, the Pledgors shall have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall, upon receiving a written request from the Pledgors accompanied by a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Pledgors stating that no Acceleration Event has occurred, deliver to the relevant Pledgor or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any of the Collateral that is registered, or held through a securities intermediary, in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee or sub-custodian as shall be specified in such request and shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall only be required to deliver such proxies, powers of attorneys, consents, ratifications and waivers as have actually been received by it in respect of the Collateral and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall only be required to make such deliveries as quickly as reasonably practicable after its receipt of the relevant documents and the written request.

SECTION 7. Collateral Account; Cash Collateral Account; Margin Calls.

(a) (i) The Collateral Agent has established, or caused to be established, prior to the Amendment Effective Date, the Collateral Account, in the name of the Nevada Pledgor and under the exclusive Control of the Collateral Agent or its

 

18


sub-custodian, in or to which, subject to Section 17, all investment property owned by the Nevada Pledgor constituting Collateral pursuant to the Transaction Documents shall be held or credited from time to time. After consummation of the actions set forth in Sections 7(f) and (g), the Collateral Agent shall rename, or caused to be renamed, the Collateral Account in the name of the Pledgors and under the exclusive Control of the Collateral Agent or its sub-custodian, in or to which, subject to Section 17, all investment property owned by the Pledgors constituting Collateral pursuant to the Transaction Documents (other than any Cash Collateral held from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account) shall be held or credited from time to time.

(ii) The Collateral Agent will establish, or cause to be established, the Cash Collateral Account with the UK Securities Intermediary in the joint names of the Pledgors and under the exclusive Control of the Collateral Agent or its sub-custodian, into which all cash amounts owned by the Pledgors that are to be deposited therein pursuant to the Transaction Documents shall be deposited from time to time. The Pledgors may deliver cash to the Collateral Agent as additional Collateral at any time in amounts not less than the Minimum Transfer Amount. The Cash Collateral Account will be operated as provided in this Section.

19


(whether in the Cash Collateral Account or in investments permitted under Section 7(e)), the “Cash Margin”). The Pledgors shall deliver Cash Margin to the Collateral Agent in satisfaction of the Margin Call no later than the close of business on the second Business Day following the date of such Margin Call. The Collateral Agent or any Initial Bank making any Margin Call on the Pledgors shall give notice of such Margin Call substantially simultaneously with such Margin Call (x) in the case of the Collateral Agent, to the Banks and (y) in the case of any Initial Bank, to the Collateral Agent and the other Banks.

(d) Upon the Pledgors’ written request in the form set forth in Exhibit C hereto, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time withdraw from the Cash Collateral Account and deliver to the Pledgors the amount of Cash Margin specified in such request of the Pledgors, provided that (i) no Default, Event of Default or Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) as of the date of such request of the Pledgors the LtV is less than [***] and (iii) after giving effect to such withdrawal and delivery, the LtV shall be less than [***].

(e) During the term of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall or, after consummation of the actions set forth in Section 7(f), shall cause the UK Securities Intermediary to, invest and reinvest the balance on deposit from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account (such balance, the “Cash Collateral”) in any of the following investments denominated in U.S. dollars, in each case at the written direction of an Authorized Officer of the Pledgors:

(i) money market mutual funds investing in U.S. dollar-denominated securities with a long-term debt rating of AA or higher by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., or Aa2 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.; and

(ii) U.S. dollar-denominated term deposits with Deutsche Bank AG.

The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest, or to cause the UK Securities Intermediary to invest or reinvest, the Cash Collateral if deposited in the Cash Collateral Account after 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such day of deposit. Instructions received after 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) will be treated as if received on the following business day. The Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for any investment losses resulting from the investment, reinvestment or liquidation of the Cash Collateral. Any interest or other income received on such investment and reinvestment of the Cash Collateral shall become part of the Cash Collateral and any losses incurred on such investment and reinvestment of the Cash Collateral shall be debited against the Cash Collateral.

 

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested.

 

20


If a selection is not made and a written direction not given to the Collateral Agent, the Cash Collateral shall remain uninvested with no liability for interest therein. It is understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent may earn fees from third parties associated with the investments outlined above in accordance with the terms of such investments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the power to sell or liquidate the foregoing investments whenever the Collateral Agent shall be required to release all or any portion of the Cash Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be deemed an investment manager or adviser in respect of any selection of investments hereunder. It is understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent or its Affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral Agent’s economic self-interest for (A) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the investments, (B) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain investments and (C) effecting transactions in investments. For the avoidance of doubt, Pledgors acknowledge that, to the extent the Collateral Agent determines appropriate in order to comply with applicable law, the Collateral Agent may withhold amounts from the proceeds from investments described in this Section 7(e) paid to or credited to the account of Pledgors, and such withheld amounts shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as having been paid or credited to the account of Pledgors. If any governmental authority asserts a claim that the Collateral Agent did not properly withhold any such amounts, whether or not such assertion is or is determined to be correct, the Pledgors agree to indemnify and hold the Collateral Agent harmless from any losses resulting therefrom, including the amount of any such withholding(s), and any penalties, interest and expenses (including legal and other expenses) incurred in connection therewith.

(f) Each Pledgor shall, immediately upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, (i) execute and deliver the Infinity United Kingdom Securities Account Control Agreement to the Collateral Agent and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, in its capacity as securities intermediary, (ii) serve a notice on the UK Securities Intermediary of the Security Interest created hereunder in the Cash Collateral Account and all assets from time to time credited thereto, substantially in the form of Part 1 of Exhibit K (the “UK Securities Intermediary Notice”) and (iii) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that the UK Securities Intermediary acknowledges the notice, substantially in the form of Part 2 of Exhibit K (the “UK Securities Intermediary Acknowledgment”).

(g) Each Pledgor hereby instructs the Collateral Agent to, promptly (which shall in no event be later than April 23, 2008 at 10:00 a.m. (New York City time)) upon the execution and delivery of the Infinity United Kingdom Securities Account Control Agreement by the Pledgors, the UK Securities Intermediary and the Collateral Agent, the delivery of the UK Securities Intermediary Notice to the UK Securities Intermediary and the receipt of the UK

 

21


Securities Intermediary Acknowledgment executed by the UK Securities Intermediary, transfer the entire cash balance then on deposit in the Collateral Account to the Cash Collateral Account. Each Initial Bank hereby consents to such transfer of the Cash Collateral.

Section 8. Remedies Upon Acceleration Event. (a) Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, the Collateral Agent (and, as specified herein, the Disposition Agents as sub-agents) may exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) and, in addition, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, the Disposition Agents shall have the right, subject to the Right of First Refusal Provision and the Buy-Out Option Provision, to sell all or any part of the Collateral, at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the Disposition Agents may deem satisfactory. Any Initial Bank giving notice pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b) of the relevant ISDA Master Agreement (the “Initiating Bank”) to the Pledgors designating an Early Termination Date (a “Designation Notice”) shall give such notice (substantially simultaneously with the giving of notice to the Pledgors) to the Collateral Agent, Parent, the other Initial Banks and the Disposition Agents, it being understood and agreed that only an Initial Bank may give a Designation Notice. Promptly after giving a Designation Notice, the Initiating Bank agrees to consult with the other Initial Banks (each, a “Responding Bank”) regarding such notice and the exercise of remedies hereunder and if all three Initial Banks agree that the Designation Notice should be withdrawn, the Initiating Bank shall deliver a notice of such withdrawal (a “Withdrawal Notice”) prior to the Election Deadline to the Agents, the Pledgors, Parent and the Responding Banks, it being understood and agreed that if a Withdrawal Notice is not delivered (or deemed to be delivered pursuant to the Buy-Out Option Provision) by the Initiating Bank in respect of its Designation Notice prior to the Election Deadline, such Designation Notice shall continue to remain effective. From and after the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, subject to the Right of First Refusal Provision, any Initial Bank may instruct the Agents to, and any Agent may, proceed to realize on the Collateral and exercise other remedies available hereunder, under the Liquidity Agreement and applicable law. The Agents shall take such actions and exercise such remedies as may be directed by any of the Initial Banks, it being understood and agreed that any sale of Collateral shall be conducted by the Disposition Agents and that any Secured Party may purchase the Collateral for its own account at any such sale. Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that such Pledgor will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Agents deem necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law. Upon any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the buyer thereof the Collateral so sold. Each buyer at any such sale shall hold the

 

22


Collateral so sold absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Pledgors that may be waived or any other right or claim of the Pledgors, and each Pledgor, to the extent permitted by law, hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal that such Pledgor has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The notice (if any) of such sale required by Section 9-611 of the UCC shall (1) in case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (2) in case of sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or the portion thereof so being sold, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange and (3) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Disposition Agents may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Disposition Agents may determine. The Disposition Agents shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Disposition Agents 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 same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Agents until the selling price is paid by the buyer thereof, but no Agent shall incur any liability in case of the failure of such buyer to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice. The Agents, instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon them, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the Security Interests and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent (and each Disposition Agent in the case of any sale of Eligible Collateral) such Pledgor’s true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Pledgor, the Agents or the Banks or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Agents and the Banks, but at the expense of the Pledgors, to the extent permitted by law, to exercise, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral:

(i) to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,

(ii) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,

 

23


(iii) subject to the Right of First Refusal Provision, to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Agents were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the giving of instructions and entitlement orders in respect thereof); and

(iv) with the consent of all the Initial Banks, to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto.

(c) Upon any delivery or sale of all or any part of any Collateral made either under the power of delivery or sale given hereunder or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Agreement, each Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of each Pledgor, in the name and stead of such Pledgor, to make all necessary deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment, transfer or conveyance of the property, and all instructions and entitlement orders in respect of the property thus delivered or sold. For that purpose each Agent may execute all such documents, instruments, instructions and entitlement orders. This power of attorney shall be deemed coupled with an interest, and each Pledgor hereby ratifies and confirms that which such Pledgor’s attorney acting under such power, or such attorney’s successors or agents, shall lawfully do by virtue of this Agreement. If so requested by any Agent, by any Initial Bank or by any buyer of the Collateral or a portion thereof, the Pledgors shall further ratify and confirm any such delivery or sale by executing and delivering to such Agent, to such Initial Bank or to such buyer or buyers at the expense of the Pledgors all proper deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment, conveyance or transfer, releases, instructions and entitlement orders as may be designated in any such request.

(d) Upon the occurrence of any Acceleration Event, the Collateral Agent (and, in the case of Eligible Collateral, the Disposition Agents) may and, at the direction of any Initial Bank shall, subject to the Right of First Refusal Provision, proceed to realize upon the security interest in the Collateral against any one or more of the types of Collateral, at any time, as such Agents shall determine in their sole discretion subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 8. The proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, or other receipt from, any of the Collateral shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent and applied by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the instructions regarding such allocation of funds provided by the Calculation Agents, in the following order of priorities:

first, to the payment to the Agents of the expenses of such sale or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Agents and their agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Agents in connection therewith, including brokerage fees in connection with the sale by the Agents of any Collateral;

 

24


second, to the payment to each Bank of its pro rata share of the aggregate amount owing by the Pledgors in respect of the Transactions; and

finally, if all of the obligations of the Pledgors hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents have been fully discharged or sufficient funds have been set aside by the Collateral Agent at the request of the Pledgors for the discharge thereof, any remaining proceeds shall be released to the Pledgors.

(e) To the extent necessary to perform its duties under Section 8(d) above, the Collateral Agent may require the Calculation Agents to provide to the Collateral Agent instructions regarding the allocation of proceeds from the realization of Collateral.

(f) Each Pledgor recognizes that the Secured Parties may not choose to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained (x) in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as now or hereafter in effect, (y) in applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or (z) in any applicable rules or regulations, as now or hereafter in effect, and may resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will 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 Pledgor agrees that private sales so made may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such Collateral were sold at public sales, and that the Secured Parties have no obligation to delay sale of any such Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such Collateral, even if such issuer would agree, to register such Collateral for public sale under such applicable securities laws. Each Pledgor agrees that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances, including, without limitation, any sale to Parent or Parent’s designee pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement, shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

(g) Upon the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, no Pledgor shall vote or give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to the Collateral without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that such Pledgor will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Agents reasonably deem necessary or advisable in order to communicate such restriction to the Issuer or its agents.

 

25


(h) The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties agree and acknowledge that any disposition of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise of remedies under this Section 8 or otherwise shall be subject to the terms of the New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement, the New Jersey ICA Securities Account Control Agreement and the New Jersey ICA Collateral Disposition and Forbearance Agreement referenced in Section 17 hereof so long as such agreements are in effect.

SECTION 9. Prepayments and Payments. (a) To request a Prepayment under each Forward Transaction, a Pledgor shall notify the Collateral Agent of such request in writing substantially in the form of Prepayment Notice set forth as Exhibit E hereto, no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) three Business Days prior to the applicable Prepayment Date. Promptly after it receives a Prepayment Notice in accordance with this Section, the Collateral Agent shall advise each Bank as to the details of such Prepayment Notice and the amount of such Bank’s Prepayment to be made pursuant thereto.

(b) Each Bank making a Prepayment shall wire the amount thereof in immediately available funds, by 12:00 noon (New York City time), on the proposed Prepayment Date, to the Payment Account. The Collateral Agent shall make such funds available to the Pledgor requesting such Prepayment by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Pledgor in New York City designated by such Pledgor in the applicable Prepayment Notice.

(c) The Pledgors shall make each payment required to be made by them under the Transaction Documents to the Payment Account. The Collateral Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Persons to the appropriate parties promptly after receipt thereof ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of the payments then due to such parties.

(d) At least five Business Days prior to the date on which a payment is due under the Confirmations, the Calculation Agents shall furnish to the Collateral Agent the amount and description of such payment. The Calculation Agents shall provide the Collateral Agent with such additional information regarding payments in respect of the Transactions (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the interest rate applicable to the Floating Amount under the Swap Transactions) as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder.

SECTION 10. The Agents. (a) Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent and each Disposition Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Collateral Agent and the Disposition Agents by the terms hereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Collateral Agent may also determine purely administrative matters without consulting the Banks.

 

26


(b) The obligations of the Agents hereunder are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(c) The Agents may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

(d) Neither any Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with this Agreement (1) with the written consent or at the written request of any Bank or (2) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agents shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default or Termination Event unless and until notice describing such Event of Default or Termination Event is given to the Agents by any Pledgor or any Initial Bank. No Agent shall incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by Authorized Officers of the proper party or parties.

(e) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith (or selected by an agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary so selected by the Collateral Agent or by any agent, bailee, clearing corporation or securities intermediary selected in accordance with this parenthetical phrase).

(f) Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agents and any such sub-agent.

 

27


(g) Any corporation or association into which Collateral Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its agency business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party, shall, subject to the prior written consent of the Initial Banks, be and become a successor Collateral Agent hereunder and vested with all of the title to the Collateral and all of the powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and other matters as was its predecessor without, except as provided above, the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

(h) The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Banks and the Pledgors. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Initial Banks shall have the right, in consultation with the Pledgors, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Initial Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may on behalf of the Banks appoint a successor Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Collateral Agent shall notify the Pledgors and the Banks that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Security Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Banks under any of the Security Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to the Banks directly, until such time as the Banks appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Security Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Security Documents, the provisions of this Section shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent, its sub agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent.

 

28


SECTION 11. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Pledgors shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and their Affiliates (including without limitation, any reasonable fees and expenses payable by the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Control/Custody Agreement and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Agents), in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Banks (including without limitation, the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Banks), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including its rights under this Section or (B) in connection with the Transactions, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Transactions and (iii) all out of pocket expenses incurred by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) under the escrow agreement dated as of December 17, 2007 between the New Jersey ICA Trustee and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”) (including, without limitation, (i) all fees and disbursements of counsel, advisors and agents, (ii) all expenses related to the transfer of certificated shares from the transfer agent, and (iii) all taxes or other governmental charges), in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of the Escrow Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof.

(b) The Pledgors shall indemnify each Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Bank, the Escrow Agent, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by a Pledgor arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, the Escrow Agreement, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by a Pledgor, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

 

29


(c) To the extent that the Pledgors for any reason fail to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 11 to be paid by them to any Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Bank agrees to pay to such Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, its Applicable Percentage of such unpaid amount.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Pledgor shall assert, and each Pledgor hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, the Escrow Agreement, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Transaction or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor. Any such amount not paid on demand shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and payable for the actual number of days elapsed) at a rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate announced from time to time by the Collateral Agent or its affiliated bank as its prime rate.

(f) The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Collateral Agent, the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent, the replacement of any Bank, the termination of the Transactions and the payment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other obligations under the Transaction Documents.

SECTION 12. Miscellaneous. (a) Whenever any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such party. All the covenants and agreements herein contained by or on behalf of the Pledgors and the Collateral Agent shall bind, and inure to the benefit of, their respective successors and permitted assigns whether so expressed or not, and shall be enforceable by and inure to the benefit of the Banks and its successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents and the Banks) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

30


(b) To the extent permitted by law, the unenforceability or invalidity of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not render any other provision or provisions herein contained unenforceable or invalid.

(c) Any provision of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed by (i) in the case of the Confirmations, each Pledgor and each Initial Bank party thereto (with the consent of the other Initial Banks), (ii) in the case of this Agreement, each Pledgor, the Collateral Agent and each Initial Bank, (iii) in the case of the Liquidity Agreement, each Pledgor, Parent, the Collateral Agent and each Initial Bank and (iv) in the case of any other Security Document, each of the parties thereto, provided that the Collateral Agent shall not agree to any amendment or waiver thereto without the prior consent of each Initial Bank. All amendments and waivers to any Transaction Document made in accordance with this Section 12(c) shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of all parties to the Transaction Documents and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(d) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided under the Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(e) All notices, instructions, directions, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and, except in the case of notices, instructions, directions, demands and other communications given by the Collateral Agent, executed by an Authorized Officer and shall be deemed to have been duly given, (i) if to the Collateral Agent, if it has been delivered by telecopy (to the telecopy number for the Collateral Agent specified below or such other telecopy number as the Collateral Agent shall have specified to the other parties hereto by notice pursuant to this Section 12(e)) and the facsimile sender machine issues a confirmation of error free receipt, and (ii) if to any other party, if sent as an electronic image by email (to the email address for such party specified below or such other email address as such party shall have specified to the other parties hereto by notice pursuant to this Section 12(e)), or, if for any reason email is not available at that time, if sent by telecopy (to the telecopy number for such party specified below or such other telecopy number as such party shall have specified to the other parties hereto by notice pursuant to this Section 12(e)) and the facsimile sender machine issues a confirmation of error free receipt; provided that any Designation Notice, Withdrawal Notice and Buy-Out Exercise Notice shall be

Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that it shall take any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to continue the foregoing designations and appointments in full force and effect and to cause the Process Agent to continue to act in such capacity.

(i) Each Pledgor consents to process being served in any Proceedings by serving a copy thereof upon the Process Agent.

34


(l) Any right or remedy of either Pledgor hereunder or under any other Security Document or any notice that may be given by either or both Pledgors hereunder or under any other Security Document may be exercised or given by either Pledgor and such exercise or notice shall be binding on both Pledgors.

(m) This Agreement may be executed, acknowledged and delivered in any number of counterparts, and all such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

(n) The Collateral Agent hereby notifies each Pledgor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Pledgor, which information includes the name and address of such Pledgor and information that will allow the Collateral Agent to identify such Pledgor in accordance with the Act.

SECTION 13. Termination. This Agreement and the rights hereby granted by the Pledgors in the Collateral shall cease, terminate and be void upon fulfillment of all of the obligations of the Pledgors under the Transaction Documents.

SECTION 14. Assignment. (a) No Pledgor may assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement, except with the prior written consent of all other parties hereto, and any purported assignment or delegation without such prior written consent shall be void and of no effect; provided, however, that a Pledgor may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 16 with the prior written consent of each Initial Bank and the Collateral Agent.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Bank may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the ISDA Agreements and the other Transaction Documents (including all or a portion of its commitment to make a Prepayment and the outstanding Prepayments at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Pledgors, provided that no consent of the Pledgors shall be required for an assignment to (x) a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank or (y) if any Termination Event or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any other assignee with concurrent notice to the

 

35


Pledgors and Parent. The Pledgors shall be deemed to have given consent under this Section 14(b) to a transfer or assignment after a period of five Business Days has elapsed following the receipt by the Pledgors of a written request from the assignor, unless consent is expressly refused by the Pledgors within such period.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(B) the assignee, if it shall not be a Bank, shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an administrative questionnaire in the form prescribed by the Collateral Agent.

(c) Notwithstanding any assignment by any Initial Bank of any part of its rights and obligations under the ISDA Agreements and the other Transaction Documents and notwithstanding any other provision under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to the contrary, all rights hereunder expressly attributed to the Initial Banks (including without limitation, the right to give a Designation Notice and the right to vote on all amendments of the Transaction Documents) shall be reserved to the Initial Banks and may not be transferred to any assignee or any other Person.

(d) The Collateral Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Pledgors, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the commitment of, and outstanding amount of the Prepayments owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms of the Confirmations from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Pledgors and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Bank and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Bank hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Collateral Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

 

36


(f) Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under the Transaction Documents to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 14 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

(g) Each Bank hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to timely file or cause to be filed pursuant to applicable Gaming Laws (A) any application requested of such Bank by any Gaming Authority in connection with any licensing required of such Bank as a lender or other provider of credit to the Pledgors or (B) any required application or other submission required by a Gaming Authority and provided to such Bank by the Pledgors in connection with the determination of the suitability of such Bank as a lender or other provider of credit to the Pledgors.

SECTION 15. Initial Bank Buy-Out Option. (a) Upon the receipt of any Designation Notice from the Initiating Bank, the Responding Banks and any New Buy-Out Bank (collectively, the “Buy-Out Banks”) shall have the right (but not the obligation) by notice to the Initiating Bank, each other Responding Bank, the Pledgors, Parent and the Collateral Agent (the “Buy-Out Exercise Notice”) by the Election Deadline to purchase the rights and assume the obligations, in whole but not in part, of the Initiating Bank at the Buy-Out Price (the “Buy-Out Purchase”). If more than one Buy-Out Bank delivers a Buy-Out Exercise Notice, such Buy-Out Banks delivering such notice shall purchase the rights and assume the obligations of the Initiating Bank under the Transaction in equal shares or as they may otherwise agree. Upon delivery of a Buy-Out Exercise Notice, the Initiating Bank shall be deemed to have delivered a Withdrawal Notice in respect of its Designation Notice pursuant to Section 8(a) hereof. The closing date of any Buy-Out Purchase shall be the 20th Business Day immediately following the date of the first Buy-Out Exercise Notice, or such other date as the parties may agree. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the consummation of the Buy-Out Purchase the Initiating Bank shall no longer be deemed to be an Initial Bank under any of the Transaction Documents. As used herein, “Buy-Out Price”, in respect of any Buy-Out Purchase, means the Aggregate Prepayment Amount outstanding under the Transaction in respect to which the Initiating Bank is Party A plus any Unpaid Amounts and accrued but unpaid Floating Amount thereunder, in each case as of the closing date of such Buy-Out Purchase.

 

37


SECTION 16. Post-closing Restructuring. The Pledgors hereby advise the Secured Parties that the Pledgors and Parent are considering alternative ownership structures for the Pledged Shares, including transferring the Pledged Shares after the date hereof from the Pledgors to another Person (such Person, the “Proposed Substitute Pledgor”). The Pledgors shall not transfer ownership of the Pledged Shares to the Proposed Substitute Pledgor unless Section 17 such transfer shall not cause any of the Security Interests to become unperfected, cause the Collateral Agent to cease to have Control in respect of any of the Security Interests in any Collateral consisting of investment property or subject any Collateral to any other Lien or affect the accuracy of the representations and warranties herein relating to the Collateral, Section 18 the transferee shall be 100% beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent, Section 19 after giving effect to any such transfer, the Pledged Shares shall remain Eligible Collateral, Section 20 such transfer shall not, in the sole discretion of each Initial Bank, increase or adversely affect the economic risk of the Secured Parties under the Transaction Documents, Section 21 the Pledgors shall have caused to be delivered, at the Pledgors’ expense, to the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks unless otherwise agreed by the Initial Banks (i) an opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks, to the effect that (A) all financing statements and amendments or supplements thereto, continuation statements and other documents required to be filed or recorded in order to perfect the Security Interests after such transfer or assignment (except any continuation statements specified in such opinion of counsel that are to be filed more than six months after the date thereof) have been filed or recorded in each office necessary for such purpose, (B) all fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings or recordations have been paid in full and (C) the Collateral Agent shall have Control in respect of the Security Interests in all Accounts in which Collateral consisting of investment property is held or credited to, and (ii) an opinion of counsel of recognized standing with respect to U.S. federal income tax matters, and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks, to the effect that the Banks will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such post-closing restructuring and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such post-closing restructuring had not occurred, Section 22 the Initial Banks shall have, in their sole discretion, consented to such assignment or transfer, and Section 23 the Proposed Substitute Pledgor shall have agreed in writing to assume all the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Pledgors hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and for all purposes hereunder to become “Pledgor” hereunder and “Counterparty” under the other Transaction Documents effective immediately upon the effectiveness of such transfer or assignment. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent and the Banks agree to make commercially reasonable efforts to, acting in good faith, cooperate to accommodate such transfer or assignment hereunder and under the Transaction Documents.

SECTION 17. New Jersey Gaming Trust. (a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if as of any Prepayment Date, the Pledgors are required by any Gaming Laws of the State of New Jersey in connection with the Pledgors’ application for an “Interim Casino Authorization” relating to the Pledgors’ ownership of Shares to hold their Shares through or in the name of the trustee (the “New Jersey ICA Trustee”) under any trust agreement entered into by the Pledgors and the New Jersey ICA Trustee for purposes of complying with requirements of the New Jersey Gaming Laws in connection with the Pledgors’ application for an “Interim Casino Authorization” substantially in the form of Exhibit G (such agreement, the “New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement”), the Pledgors shall deliver to the Collateral Agent the Shares to be pledged hereunder on such date by causing such Shares to be credited to and held in a securities account (the “New Jersey ICA Securities Account”) maintained by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as securities intermediary, in the name of the New Jersey ICA Trustee; provided that, except as otherwise agreed by the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks, (i) such New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement shall be acceptable in form and substance to the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks in their reasonable discretion, (ii) the Pledgors, the New Jersey ICA Trustee, the Collateral Agent and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as securities intermediary in respect of the New Jersey ICA Securities Account, shall have entered into a securities account control agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 (the “New Jersey ICA Securities Account Control Agreement”), (iii) after giving effect to any such delivery, the Pledged Shares shall remain Eligible Collateral, (iv) with respect to such items of Eligible Collateral delivered to the Collateral Agent on such Prepayment Date, the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3(a), 3(b), 3(c) and 3(d) are true and correct with respect to such Eligible Collateral on and as of the date thereof, (v) the Pledgors, the New Jersey ICA Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall have entered into a collateral disposition and forbearance agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H (the “New Jersey ICA Collateral Disposition and Forbearance Agreement”), and (vi) the Pledgors shall have caused to be delivered, at the Pledgors’ expense, to the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks (x) an opinion of Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I and (y) an opinion of New Jersey counsel in respect of the New Jersey ICA Security Documents substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J.

(b) After the occurrence of any Prepayment Date, the Pledgors may, if required by any Gaming Laws of the State of New Jersey in connection with the Pledgors’ application for an “Interim Casino Authorization” relating to the Pledgors’ ownership of the Pledged Shares, request the Collateral Agent to transfer, and the Collateral Agent shall transfer, any Pledged Shares held in or credited to the Collateral Account to the New Jersey ICA Securities Account maintained by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas in the name of the New Jersey ICA Trustee; provided that, except as otherwise agreed by the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks, (i) the conditions set forth in Section 17(a) shall have been satisfied, (ii) the Pledgors’ rights to the Pledged Shares shall be conveyed

 

39


and transferred to the New Jersey ICA Trustee subject to the Security Interests, and (iii) such transfer shall not cause any of the Security Interests to become unperfected, require Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as securities intermediary, to relinquish possession of any Pledged Shares in certificated form, cause the Collateral Agent to cease to have Control in respect of any of the Security Interests in any Collateral consisting of investment property or subject any Collateral to any other Lien (other than the interests of the New Jersey ICA Trustee under the New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement).

(c) If the New Jersey Trustee shall resign or be removed in accordance with the terms of the New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall transfer or cause to be transferred the Pledged Shares to a securities account maintained by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas in the name of the successor New Jersey ICA Trustee only upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 17(a) and (b).

(d) The Pledgors agree that, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and the Initial Banks, the Pledgors will not perform any acts or cause any action to be taken under the New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement that would reasonably be expected to (x) cause the Security Interests to become unperfected or (y) have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce this Agreement or the New Jersey ICA Security Documents (it being understood that enforcement may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability).

(e) Upon the Pledgors being found qualified by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission or upon approval by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission of an application to terminate the New Jersey ICA Trust Agreement, the Pledgors shall cause the Pledged Shares to be transferred to the Collateral Account.

SECTION 18. Consultation On Beneficial Ownership. The Initial Banks shall consult among themselves, and each Bank hereby agrees to provide information upon request to any Initial Bank, regarding the number of Shares that may be deemed from time to time during the term of this Agreement to be beneficially owned (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934) by such Bank.

SECTION 19. Obligations Joint and Several; Guarantee. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that all Obligations (as defined below) of the Pledgors shall be joint and several obligations of both Pledgors. Each Pledgor hereby guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of the other Pledgor (each Pledgor, in its capacity as a guarantor under this Section 19, a “Guarantor Party”).

 

40


Obligations” means (i) the due and punctual payment of (A) all amounts payable by the Pledgors under the ISDA Agreements, when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, upon one or more dates set for prepayment or otherwise, and (B) all other monetary obligations of the Pledgors under the Transaction Documents and (ii) the due and punctual performance of all covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of the Pledgors under or pursuant to the Transaction Documents. Each Guarantor Party further agrees that the Obligations of the other Pledgor may be extended and renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its agreement hereunder notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation of the other Pledgor.

(b) Each Guarantor Party waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the other Pledgor of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of each Guarantor Party under this Section 19 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(i) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any Obligation of the other Pledgor under any Transaction Document, by operation of law or otherwise;

(ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to any Transaction Document by the other Pledgor;

(iii) any release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any Obligation of the other Pledgor under any Transaction Document;

(iv) any change in the limited liability company or limited partnership (as applicable) existence, structure or ownership of the other Pledgor, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the other Pledgor or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of either Pledgor contained in any Transaction Document;

(v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which such Guarantor Party may have at any time against the other Pledgor, any Secured Party or any other entity, whether in connection herewith or with any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

 

41


(vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the other Pledgor for any reason of any Transaction Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the other Pledgor of any amounts payable pursuant to any Transaction Document; or

(vii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the other Pledgor, any Secured Party or any other person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to such Guarantor Party’s obligations hereunder.

(c) Each Guarantor Party further agrees that its agreement under this Section 19 constitutes a promise of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Secured Party to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Secured Party in favor of the other Pledgor or any other person.

(d) The Obligations of each Guarantor Party hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor Party hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification in respect of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations of the other Pledgor, or by any other act or omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor Party or otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor Party as a matter of law or equity.

(e) Each Guarantor Party shall be liable under this Section 19 only for amounts aggregating up to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other applicable law.

(f) Each Guarantor Party’s obligations under this Section 19 shall remain in full force and effect until all the obligations of the Pledgors under the Transaction Documents shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of any Obligation of either Pledgor is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Pledgor or otherwise, each Guarantor Party’s obligations hereunder in respect of such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

 

42


(g) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Secured Party may have at law or in equity against any Pledgor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of a Pledgor to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor Party hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Collateral Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligations, and thereupon each Bank shall, in reasonable manner, assign the amount of the Obligations of the other Pledgor owed to it and paid by such Guarantor Party pursuant to this guarantee to such Guarantor Party, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Obligations in question were discharged by such Guarantor Party, or make such disposition thereof as such Guarantor Party shall direct (all without recourse to any Bank and without any representation or warranty by any Bank).

(h) Upon payment by a Guarantor Party of any sums as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor Party against the other Pledgor, as the case may be, arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the Obligations to the Secured Parties.

SECTION 20. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, managers, managing members, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Security Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Security Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any permitted assignee of or participant in, or any prospective permitted assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under the ISDA Agreements or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Pledgors and their obligations, (g) with the consent of the Pledgors or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Agents or the Banks or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Pledgors or the Parent.

 

43


For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Pledgors, Parent or any of their Affiliates relating to the Pledgors, the Parent or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agents and the Banks on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Pledgors, the Parent or any of their Affiliates. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 21. Non-recourse. It is expressly understood, and the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties agree, that notwithstanding any other provision of the ISDA Agreements or the Security Documents, the Pledgors’ maximum and sole liability under the ISDA Agreements and the Security Documents shall be limited to enforcement of the security interest provided for in Section 2. In no event will the Pledgors be liable for any amount in excess of, or in any manner other than, the Collateral Agent’s and Secured Parties’ execution and levy on the Collateral.
