At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Trustee or Trustee’s designee may notify Account Debtors of the Obligors that the Obligors’ Accounts, chattel paper, or General Intangibles have been assigned to Trustee or that Trustee has a security interest therein. After the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, each Obligor agrees that it will hold in trust for the Secured Party, as the Secured Party’s trustee, any of its Collections that it receives and immediately will deliver to Trustee in their original form as received by such Obligor or its Subsidiaries.

2.4 Filing of Financing Statements; Commercial Tort Claims; Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Each Obligor authorizes Trustee to file any financing statement necessary or desirable to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents, and any continuation statement or amendment with respect thereto, in any appropriate filing office without the signature of Obligors where permitted by applicable law.

(b) At any time upon the request of Trustee (except as expressly permitted otherwise in the Financing Documents), Obligors shall execute or deliver to Trustee any and all financing statements, original financing statements in lieu of continuation statements, fixture filings, security agreements, pledges, assignments, Commercial Tort Claim Assignments, endorsements of certificates of title, to the extent applicable, and all other documents (collectively, the “Additional Documents”) that Trustee may request in its Permitted Discretion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Trustee in its Permitted Discretion, to create, perfect, and continue to perfect the Trustee’s Liens in the Collateral (whether now owned or hereafter arising or acquired, tangible or intangible, real or personal), to create and perfect Liens in favor of Trustee in any owned Real Property having a value in excess of $1,000,000 acquired after the Closing Date, and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Obligor authorizes Trustee to execute any such Additional Documents in the applicable Obligor’s name and authorizes Trustee to file such executed Additional Documents in any appropriate filing office. In addition, on such periodic basis as Trustee shall reasonably require (in the event an Obligor acquires or develops a material patent or files a patent application therefor, immediately upon such acquisition, development and filing), Obligors shall cause to be prepared, executed, and delivered to Trustee supplemental schedules to the applicable Financing Documents to identify all material patents, patent applications, copyright registrations and registered trademarks acquired or generated by any Obligor as being subject to the security interests created thereunder; provided, however, that (i) no Obligor shall register with the U.S. Copyright Office any unregistered copyrights (whether in existence on the Closing Date or thereafter acquired, arising or developed) unless (x) the applicable Obligor provides Trustee with written notice of its intent to register such copyrights not less than 30 days prior to the date of the proposed registration, and (y) prior to such registration, the applicable Obligor executes and delivers to Trustee a Copyright Security Agreement, supplemental

-8-

schedules to an existing Copyright Security Agreement or such other documentation as Trustee reasonably deems necessary in order to perfect and continue perfected Trustee’s Liens on such copyrights following such registration and (ii) no Obligors shall be required to make any filings in any jurisdiction outside the United States in respect of patents, copyrights and trademarks.

2.5 Power of Attorney. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Obligor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes, and appoints Trustee (and any of Trustee’s officers, employees, or agents designated by Trustee) as such Obligor’s true and lawful attorney, with power, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law, to (a) if such Obligor refuses to, or fails timely to execute and deliver any of the documents described in Section 2.4, sign the name of such Obligor on any of the documents described in Section 2.4 and (b) after the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, (i) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, sign such Obligor’s name on any invoice or ▇▇▇▇ of lading relating to the Obligor Collateral, drafts against Account Debtors, or notices to Account Debtors, (ii) send requests for verification of Obligors’ Accounts to the extent constituting Obligor Collateral, (iii) endorse such Obligor’s name on any of its payment items (including all of its Collections) that may come into the Secured Party’s possession, (iv) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, make, settle, and adjust all claims under such Obligor’s policies of insurance and make all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance, and (v) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting Obligors’ Accounts to the extent constituting Collateral, chattel paper, or General Intangibles directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and upon terms that Trustee determines to be reasonable, and Trustee may cause to be executed and delivered any documents and releases that Trustee determines to be necessary. The appointment of Trustee as each Obligor’s attorney, and each and every one of its rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully and finally repaid.

2.6 Right to Inspect. Trustee (through any of its officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, from time to time hereafter upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times to inspect the Books and make copies or abstracts thereof and to check, test, and appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof, in order to verify the amount, quality, value, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Obligor Collateral.

2.7 Control Agreements. (a) Obligors agree that they will not transfer assets out of any of their Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts; provided, however, that (i) any Obligor may make any such transfer if immediately thereafter, the Obligors are in compliance with Section 2.7(b) and (ii) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, Obligors may use such assets (and the proceeds thereof) to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement or the other Financing Documents and, if the transfer is to another bank or securities intermediary and made after the Discharge of Credit Obligations (unless otherwise permitted under Section 2.7(b)), so long as the applicable Obligor, Trustee, and the substitute bank or securities intermediary have entered into a Control Agreement, After the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, Obligors agree that they will, subject to Sections 2.2, 2.5 and 2.7(b), take any or all reasonable steps that Trustee requests in order for Trustee to obtain control in accordance with Sections 8-106, 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 of the Code with respect to any of its or their Securities Accounts, Deposit Accounts, electronic chattel paper, Investment Property, and letter-of-credit rights. No Control Agreement in respect of any Securities Accounts or other Investment Property shall be modified by Obligors without the prior written consent of Trustee. After the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the provisions of any Control Agreement, Trustee may notify any bank or securities intermediary to liquidate the applicable Deposit Account or Securities Account or any related Investment Property maintained or held thereby and remit the proceeds thereof to an account designated by the Trustee

-9-

for the applicable Obligor; provided that, notwithstanding anything in any Financing Document to the contrary, Trustee agrees that it shall not give any bank or securities intermediary written notice instructing such bank or securities intermediary to cease honoring the applicable Obligor’s instructions unless and until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b) After the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, Obligors shall not have Permitted Investments (other than Cash Management Accounts) in Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts in an aggregate amount in excess of $4,000,000 outstanding at any one time unless the applicable Obligor and the applicable securities intermediary or bank have entered into Control Agreements or similar arrangements governing such Permitted Investments in order to perfect (and further establish) the Trustee’s Liens in such Permitted Investments.

2.8 Junior Priority Nature of Liens. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Trustee hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, until the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, the requirements of this Agreement to deliver Obligor Collateral to the Trustee shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Obligor Collateral to the Agent (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement).

Subject to Section 2.8 and the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an Event of Default, the Trustee may do any one or more of the following on behalf of the Secured Parties, all of which are authorized by Obligors:

(a) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Obligors’ Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Trustee considers advisable, and in such cases, Trustee will credit the Secured Parties with only the net amounts received by Trustee in payment of such disputed Accounts after deducting all expenses reasonably incurred or expended in connection therewith;

(b) Cause Obligors to hold all of their returned Inventory in trust for the Secured Parties and segregate all such Inventory from all other assets of Obligors or in Obligors’ possession;

(c) Without notice to or demand upon any Obligor, make such payments and do such acts as Trustee considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in the Obligor Collateral. Each Obligor agrees to assemble the Obligor Collateral if Trustee so requires, and to make the Obligor Collateral available to Trustee at a place that Trustee may designate which is reasonably convenient to both parties. Each Obligor authorizes Trustee to enter the premises where the Obligor Collateral is located, to lake and maintain possession of the Obligor Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien that in Trustee’s determination appears to conflict with the Trustee’s Liens in and to the Obligor Collateral and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Obligors’ owned or leased premises, each Obligor hereby grants Trustee a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of the Secured Party’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

-11-

(d) Without notice to any Obligor (such notice being expressly waived), and without constituting an acceptance of any collateral in full or partial satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the Code), to the extent permitted by applicable law, set off and apply to the Obligations of such Obligor any and all (i) balances and deposits of such Obligor held by any Secured Party, or (ii) Indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of such Obligor held by any Secured Party;

(e) Hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits of any Obligor held by any Secured Party, to secure the full and final repayment of all of the Obligations of such Obligor;

(f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Obligor Collateral. Each Obligor hereby grants to Trustee a non-exclusive license or other right to use, without charge, such Obligor’s labels, patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Obligor Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Obligor Collateral and such Obligor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Secured Parties’ benefit;

(g) Sell the Obligor Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Obligors’ premises) as Trustee determines in its Permitted Discretion is commercially reasonable. It is not necessary that the Obligor Collateral be present at any such sale but Trustee shall give the applicable Obligor notice in writing of the time and place of public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other than a public sale is to be made of the Obligor Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made; and

(i) The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the applicable Obligor at its address and in the manner provided in the Indenture, at least 10 days before the earliest time of disposition set forth in the notice: no notice needs to be given prior to the disposition of any portion of the Obligor Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market; and

(ii) Trustee, on behalf of the Secured Parties may credit bid and purchase at any public sale;

(h) Trustee may seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Obligor Collateral or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may seek the appointment of such a receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing; and

(i) The Trustee and the Secured Parties shall have all other rights and remedies available to them at law or in equity pursuant to any other Financing Documents.

4.2 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Secured Parties under this Agreement, the other Financing Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Secured Parties shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Secured Parties of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election,

-12-

and no waiver by the Secured Parties of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Secured Parties shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

5. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

5.1 Demand; Protest; etc. Each Obligor waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by any Secured Party on which any such Obligor may in any way be liable.

5.2 Trustee’s Liability for Obligor Collateral. Each Obligor hereby agrees that: (a) so long as the Trustee complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, Trustee shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Obligor Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, except, in each case, to the extent such liability arises from the Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (b) except as otherwise provided in clause (a), all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Obligor Collateral shall be borne by Obligors.

7.2 No Waivers: Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Trustee or any Noteholder to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or delay by Trustee or any Noteholder in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Trustee or any Noteholder will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Trustee or any Noteholder on any occasion shall affect or diminish Trustee’s and each Noteholder’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Obligors of any provision of this Agreement. Trustee’s and each Noteholder’s rights under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Trustee or any Noteholder may have.

8. TRUSTEE.

8.1 Costs and Expenses. Trustee may incur and pay expenses to the extent Trustee reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Security Documents, including court costs, attorneys fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Obligor Collateral, whether or not Obligors are obligated to reimburse Trustee or Noteholders for such expenses pursuant to the Financing Documents or otherwise. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Trustee.

Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Noteholders to assure that the Obligor Collateral exists or is owned by Obligors or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Trustee’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Trustee pursuant to any of the Financing Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Obligor Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Trustee may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Trustee’s own interest in the Obligor Collateral in its capacity as one of the Secured Parties and that Trustee shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Noteholder as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

9. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

9.1 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by Obligors and the Trustee.

-14-

9.2 Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

9.3 Interpretation. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against the Secured Party or Obligors, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto. In the event two or more agreements made in favor of the Trustee in connection with this Agreement ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇ in the same Obligor Collateral, the fact that any one such agreement may describe such Obligor Collateral in specific terms shall not be construed to limit any Lien granted in the same Obligor Collateral which is described in general terms in another such agreement.

9.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

9.5 Counterparts; Telefacsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

9.6 Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations. If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by any Obligor or the transfer to the Secured Parties of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (collectively, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if the Secured Party is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Secured Parties are required or elect to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of the Secured Parties related thereto, the liability of Obligors automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

9.7 Termination; Release. The security interests granted hereunder in any Obligor Collateral shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1 hereof, the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement and upon the payment in full of the Obligations. Upon any such release, Trustee will, at Obligors’ sole expense, execute and deliver any UCC termination statements, lien releases, mortgage releases, re-assignments of trademarks, discharges of security interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form) as are reasonably necessary to evidence such release.

9.8 Notices. All notices to any party under this Agreement shall be given in the manner and to the addresses set forth in the Indenture.

U.S. Bank National Association, in its capacity as trustee pursuant to the Security Agreement (as hereinafter defined) acting for and on behalf of the parties thereto as Secured Parties (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, “Trustee”) and the parties from time to time to the Security Agreement as secured parties (collectively, “Secured Parties”) have entered or are about to enter into financing arrangements with [Name of Borrower], a [Type of Entity] (“Debtor”) pursuant to which Trustee has been or may be granted a security interest in any or all of Debtor’s and certain of its affiliates’ personal property, including, but not limited to, inventory and equipment (hereinafter “Personal Property”). For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the term “Personal Property” does not include plumbing and electrical fixtures, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, wall and floor coverings, walls or ceilings and other fixtures not constituting trade fixtures. Some of the Personal Property has or may from time to time become affixed to or be located on, wholly or in part, the real property leased by Debtor or its affiliates located at [Street Address of Property], the legal description of which is attached as Exhibit A (the “Premises”). The undersigned is the owner or lessor of the Premises. The term “Security Agreement” as used herein shall mean the Security Agreement by and among Debtor, certain of its affiliates, Trustee and Secured Parties, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced.

In order for Trustee and Secured Parties to consider making loans or providing other financial accommodations to Debtor or its affiliates in reliance upon the Personal Property as collateral, the undersigned agrees as follows:

1. The undersigned waives and relinquishes any landlord’s lien, rights of levy or distraint, claim, security interest or other interest the undersigned may now or hereafter have in or with respect to any of the Personal Property, whether for rent or otherwise.

2. The Personal Property may be installed in or located on the Premises and is not and shall not be deemed a fixture or part of the real property but shall at all times be considered personal property.

3. Trustee, for itself and the benefit of Secured Parties, at its option, may, enter and use the Premises for the purpose of repossessing, removing, selling or otherwise dealing with any of the Personal Property, and such license shall be irrevocable and shall continue from the date Trustee enters the Premises for a period of up to 90 days after the receipt by Trustee of written notice from the under signed directing removal of the Personal Property; provided that (a) for each day that Trustee uses the Premises pursuant to the rights granted to it herein, unless the undersigned has otherwise been paid rent in respect of any of such period, Trustee shall pay the regularly scheduled rent provided under the lease relating to the Premises between the undersigned and Debtor (the “Lease”), prorated on a per diem basis to be determined on a thirty (30) day month, without Trustee or any Secured Party thereby assuming the Lease or incurring any other obligations of Debtor and (b) any damage to the Premises caused by Trustee or its representatives will be repaired by Trustee (for the account of Debtor).

4. The undersigned agrees to send notice in writing of any default under the Lease to:

Upon receipt of such notice, Trustee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default within ten (10) days thereafter.

4. Bank is permitted to charge the Account:

(b) In no event will Bank be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits.

-2-

(c) Bank will be excused from failing to act or delay in acting, and no such failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any liability of Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Bank’s reasonable control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, war, riot, theft, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster, breakdown of public or private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or negligence or default of Company or Trustee or (ii) such failure or delay resulted from Bank’s reasonable belief that the action would have violated any guideline, rule or regulation of any governmental authority.

(d) Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether Company’s obligations to Trustee are in default or whether Trustee is entitled to provide the Notice to Bank. Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by the appropriate party.

(e) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the event of the commencement of a case pursuant to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Code, filed by or against Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against Company, Bank may act as Bank deems necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of governing statutes and shall not be in violation of this Agreement as a result.

(f) Bank shall be permitted to comply with any writ, levy order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process concerning the Account or any Check and shall not be in violation of this Agreement for so doing.

THIS COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT OF COPYRIGHTS (SECURITY AGREEMENT) (this “Agreement”), dated [ ]is made between [NAME OF PLEDGOR], a [Type of Entity] with an office at [Address of Chief Executive Office] (“Pledgor”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association with an office at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (“Pledgee”), in its capacity as Trustee for the noteholders (the “Noteholders”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Pledgee, Pledgor, Smart Modular Technologies (WWH), Inc., an exempted company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and certain other subsidiaries of the Issuer (the “Guarantors” and together with the Company, the “Issuers”) have entered into that certain Indenture, dated as of the date hereof (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, the “Indenture”). Initially capitalized terms used herein without definitions shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

WHEREAS, Pledgor owns all right, title, and interest in and to, among other things, the copyrights and rights and interests in copyrights and works protectable by copyright, pending, registered or otherwise, in the United States and throughout the world, in the works set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Copyrights”).

WHEREAS, in order to secure Pledgor’s obligations to the Noteholders under the Indenture, Pledgor has agreed to grant to Pledgee a security interest in the Copyrights and certain other assets with respect to the Copyrights, as further set forth herein and in the Security Documents, and Pledgee has requested Pledgor to enter into this Agreement to evidence further such security interest.

NOW THEREFORE, KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that for valuable consideration received and to be received, as security for the full payment and performance of Pledgor’s obligations under the Indenture, Pledgor hereby grants, transfers and assigns to Pledgee, for the benefit of Pledgee and the Noteholders (collectively, the “Secured Parties” and each a “Secured Party”), a continuing security interest in all of Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to:

(a) the Copyrights;

(b) all registrations of the Copyrights in the United States and any foreign countries and localities;

(c) all right, title and interest in and to copyrights of all works based on, incorporated in, derived from, incorporating or relating to all Copyrights (the “Future Copyrights”);

(d) all extensions, renewals, and continuations of the Copyrights and Future Copy rights and the registrations referred to in clause (b) above;

(e) all rights to ▇▇▇ for past, present and future infringements of the Copyrights and Future Copyrights;

(f) all right, title and interest to make and exploit all derivative works based on or adapted from all Copyrights and Future Copyrights; and

(g) all licenses and other agreements under which Pledgor is licensor, and all fees, rents, royalties, proceeds or monies thereunder, relating to the Copyrights and Future Copyrights and the use thereof.

All of the foregoing items set forth in clauses (a) through (g) are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Collateral.”

AND ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby covenants with Pledgee as follows:

1. Pledgor’s Obligations. Pledgor agrees that, notwithstanding this Agreement, it will perform and discharge and remain liable for all its covenants, duties, and obligations arising in connection with the Collateral and any licenses and agreements related thereto except to the extent any failure to so perform, discharge or remain liable would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein. No Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability in connection with the Collateral or any licenses or agreements relating thereto by reason of this Agreement or any payment received by any Secured Party relating to the Collateral, nor shall any Secured Party be required to perform any covenant, duty or obligation of Pledgor arising in connection with the Collateral or any license or agreement related thereto or to take any other action regarding the Collateral or any such licenses or agreement.

2. Representations and Warranties. Pledgor represents and warrants to Pledgee that:

(a) Pledgor is the owner of the Collateral, and no adverse claims are currently outstanding with respect to its title to or the validity of the Collateral except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein;

(b) the copyrights listed on Schedule 12(b) to the Perfection Certificate (as updated from time to time) are the only material copyrights, copyright registrations and pending copy rights in which Pledgor is the owner or is an exclusive licensee;

(c) none of the Collateral is subject to any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, lease, charge, encumbrance or license (by Pledgor as licensor), except for Pledgee’s security interest and Permitted Liens; and

(d) when this Agreement is filed in the United States Copyright Office and Pledgee has taken the other actions contemplated in this Agreement and by the Security Documents, this Agreement will create a legal and valid perfected and continuing lien on and security interest in the Collateral, subject to any limitations permitted under the Security Documents, in favor of Pledgee, enforceable against Pledgor and all third parties, subject to no other mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance, or security or other interest other than Permitted Liens.

-2-

in the business of Pledgor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and so long as any Copyright or Future Copyright has any significant economic value or is used by or useful to the business of Pledgor, Pledgor shall not permit the expiration, termination or abandonment of such Copyright or Future Copyright without the prior written consent of Pledgee. If, before the Pledgor’s obligations under the Security Documents have been satisfied in full (other than unmatured contingent obligations) and the Security Documents have been terminated, Pledgor shall obtain rights to or be licensed to use any new copyright, or become entitled to the benefit of any copyright application or copyright registration, the provisions of Section 1 hereof shall automatically apply thereto and Pledgor shall comply with Section 2.4 of the Security Agreement, if applicable.

4. Use Prior to Default. Effective until Pledgee’s exercise of its rights and remedies upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under and as defined in the Security Documents (an “Event of Default”), Pledgor shall be entitled to use the Collateral, subject to the terms and covenants of the Security Documents and this Agreement.

5. Remedies Upon Default. Whenever any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Pledgee shall have all the rights and remedies granted to it in such event by the Security Documents, which rights and remedies are specifically incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof, and, subject to any limitations set forth in the Security Agreement or any other Security Document, any and all rights and remedies of law available to Pledgee. Pledgee in such event may collect directly any payments due to Pledgor in respect of the Collateral and may sell, license, lease, assign, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral in the manner set forth in the Security Documents. Pledgor agrees that, in the event of any disposition of the Collateral upon and during the continuance of any such Event of Default, it will duly execute, acknowledge, and deliver all documents necessary or advisable (as determined by Trustee in its Permitted Discretion) to record title to the Collateral in any transferee or transferees thereof, including, without limitation, valid, recordable assignments of the Copyrights or Future Copyrights. In the event Pledgor fails or refuses to execute and deliver such documents, Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Pledgee as its attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, to execute, deliver, and record any such documents on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ behalf. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgor may sell any merchandise incorporating, utilizing or bearing the Copyrights and Future Copyrights to the extent permitted by the Security Agreement, until it receives written notice from Pledgee to the contrary. The preceding sentence shall not limit any right or remedy granted to Pledgee with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ inventory under any Security Documents now or hereinafter in effect.

6. Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law. The rights and remedies provided herein are intended to be in addition to and not in substitution of the rights and remedies provided by the Security Documents.

7. Waiver of Rights. No course of dealing between the parties to this Agreement or any failure or delay on the part of any such party in exercising any rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of such party or any other party, and no single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies by one party hereunder shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies of such party or any other party. No waiver by Pledgee or any Secured Party of any breach or default by Pledgor shall be deemed a waiver of any other previous breach or default or of any breach or default occurring thereafter.

8. Further Acts. Until all of the Obligations shall have been terminated, except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection

-3-

or priority of the security interests therein, Pledgor shall have the duty to make applications on material unregistered but registrable by copyright in any location where Pledgor does business, to prosecute such applications diligently, and to preserve and maintain all rights in the Copyrights and the other Collateral. Any expenses incurred in connection with such applications or other actions shall be borne by Pledgor. Pledgor shall not abandon any right to file a copyright application or registration for any copyright, or abandon any such pending copyright application or registration, without the consent of Pledgee, except to the extent such abandonment would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein.

9. Enforcement. Upon Pledgor’s failure to do so after Pledgee’s demand, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgee shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit in its own name (as agent for the Secured Parties) to enforce the Copyrights and Future Copyrights and any license thereunder, in which event Pledgor shall at the request of Pledgee do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents required by Pledgee in aid of such enforcement and Pledgor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Pledgee, each Secured Party and its respective agents for all costs and expenses incurred by each such person in the exercise of its rights under this Section 9.

10. Release. Upon (i) the consummation of a Permitted Disposition of the Pledgor or all (or any portion) of the Collateral or (ii) such time as or at any time after all of the Obligations (other than unmatured contingent Obligations) shall have been paid in full in cash and satisfied, other than upon enforcement of Pledgee’s remedies under the Security Documents upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the obligations of Pledgor hereunder and the Liens created hereby shall automatically terminate (provided that, in the case of any disposition of a portion of the Collateral, such termination and release shall only apply to the Collateral disposed of), and Pledgee, as agent for the Secured Parties, will execute and deliver to Pledgor all releases or other instruments or take any such other actions as may he necessary or evidence such releases.

11. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon Pledgor or Pledgee under this Agreement shall be given in the manner prescribed by the Security Agreement.

12. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

(b) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF PLEDGOR AND PLEDGEE HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS.

Except as permitted under the Security Agreement, no consent to assignment by Pledgee or any Secured Party shall release Pledgor from its obligations hereunder. Pledgee and Secured Parties may assign this Agreement and their respective rights and duties hereunder pursuant to and to the extent permitted by the terms of the Security Agreement and, except as expressly required pursuant to the terms thereof, no consent or approval by Pledgor is required in connection with any such assignment.

THIS COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT OF PATENTS (SECURITY AGREEMENT) (this “Agreement”) dated [ ], is made between [ ], a [ ]with an office at [ ] (“Pledgor”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association with an office at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (“Pledgee”), in its capacity as Trustee for the noteholders (the “Noteholders”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Pledgee, Pledgor, Smart Modular Technologies (WWH), Inc., an exempted company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Issuer”) and certain other subsidiaries of the Issuer (the “Guarantors”) have entered into that certain Indenture, dated as of the date hereof (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, the “Indenture”). Initially capitalized terms used herein without definitions shall have the meanings given in the Indenture.

WHEREAS, Pledgor owns all right, title, and interest in and to, among other things, all the United States and foreign patents, registrations and applications for the protection of inventions or designs set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Patents”).

WHEREAS, in order to secure Pledgor’s obligations to the Noteholders under the Indenture, Pledgor has agreed to grant to Pledgee a security interest in the Patents and certain other patents, inventions and assets with respect to the Patents as further set forth herein and in the Security Documents, and Pledgee has requested ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to enter into this Agreement to evidence further such security interest.

(a) the Patents;

(b) all patents, registrations and applications for the protection of inventions and designs hereafter acquired by, granted to, or filed by Pledgor, whether based upon, derived from or variations of any invention or designs disclosed in the Patents or otherwise (the “Future Patents”);

(c) all extensions, renewals, and continuations, re-issues, divisions, and continuations-in-part of the Patents and Future Patents;

(d) all rights to ▇▇▇ for past, present and future infringements of the Patents and Future Patents;

(e) all proceeds, including without limitation, license royalties and proceeds of infringement suits, based on the Patents and Future Patents;

(f) all licenses and other agreements and all fees, rents, royalties, proceeds or monies thereunder, relating to the Patents and Future Patents and the use thereof; and

(g) all trademarks, trademark registrations, trademark registration applications, formulae, processes, compounds, methods, know-how, and trade secrets relating to the manufacture of Pledgor’s products under, utilizing, or in connection with the Patents and Future Patents and all goodwill connected with, symbolized by or related to the foregoing.

All of the foregoing items set forth in clauses (a) through (g) are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Collateral.”

AND Pledgor hereby covenants with Pledgee as follows:

2. Representations and Warranties. Pledgor represents and warrants to Pledgee that:

(a) Pledgor is the registered owner of, and no adverse claims are currently outstanding with respect to its title to or the validity of the Collateral except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein;

(b) except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein, such title is indefeasible for the duration of each such Patent; the Patents are subsisting and no part thereof has been adjudicated invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part; each Patent is, to its best knowledge, valid and, if granted and registered, enforceable;

(c) the patents listed on Exhibit A (as updated from time to time) are the only material patents as to which Pledgor is the owner or is an exclusive licensee; none of the Collateral is subject to any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, lease, charge, encumbrance or license (by Pledgor as licensor), except Pledgee’s security interest and Permitted Liens; and

(d) when this Agreement is filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and Pledgee has taken the other actions contemplated in this Agreement and by the other Security Documents, this Agreement will create a legal and valid perfected and continuing lien on and security interest in the Collateral, subject to any limitation permitted under the Indenture, in favor of Pledgee, enforceable against Pledgor and all third parties, subject to no other mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance, or security or other interest other than Permitted Liens.

-2-

3. Covenants. Except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein, Pledgor will maintain and renew all items of Collateral, and will defend the Collateral against the claims of all persons; provided, however, that Pledgor will not be required to maintain any Collateral which no longer has any significant economic value and which is no longer used or useful in the business of Pledgor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as any Patent or Future Patent has any significant economic value or is used by or useful to the business of Pledgor, Pledgor shall not permit the expiration of any registration of or termination of any application for any such Patent and Future Patent without the prior written consent of Pledgee. If, before the Pledgor’s obligations under the Indenture have been satisfied in full (other than unmatured contingent obligations) and the Security Documents have been terminated, Pledgor shall obtain rights to or be licensed to use any new patentable inventions, or become entitled to the benefit of any patent application or patent for any reissue, division, continuation, renewal, extension, or continuation-in-part of any Patent, or any improvement on any Patent, the provisions of Section 1 hereof shall automatically apply thereto.

4. Use Prior to Default. Effective until Pledgee’s exercise of its rights and remedies upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under and as defined in the Indenture (an “Event of Default”), Pledgor shall be entitled to use the Collateral, subject to the terms and covenants of the Security Documents and this Agreement.

5. Remedies Upon Default. Whenever any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Pledgee shall have all the rights and remedies granted to it in such event by the Indenture and the Security Documents, which rights and remedies are specifically incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof, and, subject to any limitations set forth in the Indenture or any other Security Document, any and all rights and remedies of law available to Pledgee. Pledgee in such event may collect directly any payments due to Pledgor in respect of the Collateral and may sell, license, lease, as sign, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral in the manner set forth in the Indenture and the Security Documents. Pledgor agrees that, in the event of any disposition of the Collateral upon and during the continuance of any such Event of Default, it will duly execute, acknowledge and deliver all documents necessary or advisable (as determined by Agent in its Permitted Discretion) to record title to the Collateral in any transferee or transferees thereof, including, without limitation, valid, recordable assignments of the Patents and Future Patents. In the event Pledgor fails or refuses to execute and deliver such documents, Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Pledgee as its attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, to execute, deliver, and record any such documents on Pledgor’s behalf. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgor may sell any merchandise incorporating or utilizing the Patents and Future Patents to the extent permitted by the Indenture until it receives written notice from Pledgee to the contrary. The preceding sentence shall not limit any right or remedy granted to Pledgee with respect to Pledgor’s inventory under the Indenture or any Security Documents now or hereinafter in effect. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Pledgee pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Pledgee hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of March [24], 2005 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among Pledgor, Pledgee, ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Foothill, Inc., as Credit Agent, and the other parties thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

-3-

7. Waiver of Rights. No course of dealing between the parties to this Agreement or any failure or delay on the part of any such party in exercising any rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of such party or any other party, and no single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies by one party hereunder shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies of such party or any other party. No waiver by Pledgee of any breach or default by Pledgor shall be deemed a waiver of any other previous breach or default or of any breach or default occurring thereafter.

8. Further Acts. Until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein, Pledgor shall have the duty to prosecute diligently any applications for the material Patents and Future Patents pending as of the date of this Agreement or thereafter, to make applications on material unpatented or unregistered but patentable or registrable inventions, in any location where Pledgor does business, and to preserve and maintain all rights in the Patents. Any expenses incurred in connection with such applications or actions shall be borne by Pledgor. Pledgor shall not abandon any right to file a patent application or registration for any invention, nor abandon any such pending patent application or registration, without the consent of Pledgee, except to the extent that such abandonment would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein.

9. Enforcement. Upon Pledgor’s failure to do so after Pledgee’s demand, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgee shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit in its own name (as agent for the Secured Parties) to enforce the Patents and Future Patents and any license thereunder, in which event Pledgor shall at the request of Pledgee do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents required by Pledgee in aid of such enforcement and Pledgor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Pledgee and its agents for all costs and expenses incurred by such person in the exercise of their rights under this Section 9.

10. Release. Upon a release of the Collateral pursuant to Section 10.03 of the Indenture, the obligations of Pledgor hereunder and the Liens created hereby shall automatically terminate (provided that, in the case of any disposition of a portion of the Collateral, such termination and release shall only apply to the Collateral disposed of), and Pledgee, as agent for the Secured Parlies, will execute and deliver to Pledgor all releases or other instruments or take any such other actions as may be necessary or evidence such releases.

11. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon Pledgor or Pledgee under this Agreement shall be given in the manner prescribed by the Indenture.

No consent to assignment by Pledgee, except as permitted under the Indenture shall release Pledgor from its obligations hereunder. Pledgee may assign this Agreement and its rights and duties hereunder pursuant to and to the extent permitted by the terms of the Indenture and, except as expressly required pursuant to the terms thereof, no consent or approval by Pledgor is required in connection with any such assignment.

All of the foregoing items set forth in clauses (a) through (h) are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Collateral.”

AND Pledgor hereby covenants with Pledgee as follows:

1. Pledgor’s Obligations. Pledgor agrees that, notwithstanding this Agreement, it will perform and discharge and remain liable for all its covenants, duties, and obligations arising in connection with the Collateral and any licenses and agreements related thereto except to the extent any failure to so perform, discharge or remain liable would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein. No Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability in connection with the Collateral or any licenses or agreements relating thereto by reason of this Agreement or any payment received any Secured Party relating to the Collateral, nor shall any Secured Party be required to perform any covenant, duty or obligation of Pledgor arising in connection with the Collateral or any license or agreement related thereto or to take any other action regarding the Collateral or any such licenses or agreement.

2. Representations and Warranties. Pledgor represents and warrants to Pledgee that:

(b) the trademarks listed on Exhibit A are the only material trademarks, trademark registrations, trademark applications and trade names in which Pledgor has any or all ownership right, title and interest;

(c) none of the Collateral is subject to any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, lease, charge, encumbrance or license (by Pledgor as licensor), except for Pledgee’s interests granted hereunder and Permitted Liens; and

(d) when this Agreement is filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “Trademark Office”) and Pledgee has taken the other actions contemplated in this Agreement and by the Security Documents, this Agreement will create a legal and valid perfected and continuing lien on and security interest in the Collateral, subject to any limitations permitted under the Indenture, in favor of Pledgee, enforceable against Pledgor and all third parties, subject to no other mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance, or security or other interest other than Permitted Liens.

3. Covenants. Except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein, Pledgor will maintain the Collateral, defend the Collateral against the claims of all persons, and will maintain and renew all registrations of the Collateral; provided, however, that Pledgor will not be required to maintain any Collateral which no longer has any significant economic value and which is no longer used or useful in the business of Pledgor. Pledgor will maintain the same standard of quality (which Pledgee has reviewed) for the goods and services in connection with which the Trademarks are used as Pledgor maintained for such goods and services prior to entering into this Agreement except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein. To the extent permitted by, and subject to Pledgee’s compliance with the Indenture, Pledgee shall have the right to enter upon Pledgor’s premises at all reasonable times to monitor such quality standards. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and so long as any Trademark or Future Trademark has any significant economic value or is used by or useful to the business of Pledgor, Pledgor shall not permit the expiration, termination or abandonment of such Trademark or Future Trademark without the prior written consent of Pledgee. If, before the Pledgor’s obligations under the Security Documents have been satisfied in full and the Security Documents have been terminated, Pledgor shall obtain rights to or be licensed to use any new trademark, or become entitled to the benefit of any trademark application or trademark registration, the provisions of Section 1 hereof shall automatically apply thereto.

5. Remedies Upon Default. Whenever any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Pledgee shall have all the rights and remedies granted to it in such event by the Indenture and the Security Documents, which rights and remedies are specifically incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof, and, subject to any limitations set forth in the Indenture or any Security Document, any and all rights and remedies of law available to Pledgee or any Noteholder. Pledgee in such event may collect directly any payments due to Pledgor in respect of the Collateral and may sell, license, lease, assign, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral in the manner set forth in the Indenture and the Security Documents. Pledgor hereby agrees that Pledgee shall at all times have such royalty-free licenses, to the extent permitted by law and the Indenture and the Security Documents, to use any Collateral that is reasonably necessary to permit the exercise of any of Pledgee’s rights or remedies upon or after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to (among other things) any Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), including Pledgee’s rights to sell inventory, tooling or packaging which is acquired by Pledgor or any of its Affiliates (or is successor, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy). Pledgor agrees that, in the event of any disposition of the Collateral upon and during the continuance of any such Event of Default, it will duly execute, acknowledge, and deliver all documents necessary or advisable (as determined by Agent in its Permitted Discretion) to record title to the Collateral in any transferee or transferees thereof, including, without limitation, valid, recordable assignments of the Trademarks or Future Trademarks. In the event Pledgor fails or refuses to execute and deliver such documents, Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Pledgee as its attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, to execute, deliver, and record any such documents on Pledgor’s behalf. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgor may sell any merchandise or services bearing the Trademarks and Future Trademarks to the extent permitted by the Indenture until it receives written notice from Pledgee to the contrary. The preceding sentence shall not limit any right or remedy granted to Pledgee with respect to Pledgor’s inventory under any Indenture now or hereinafter in effect. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to

-3-

the Pledgee pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Pledgee hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of March [24], 2005 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among Pledgor, Pledgee, ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Foothill Inc., as credit agent and the other parties thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

7. Waiver of Rights. No course of dealing between the parties to this Agreement or any failure or delay on the part of any such party in exercising any rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of such party or any other party, and no single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies by one party hereunder shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies of such party or any other party. No waiver by Pledgee or the Noteholders of any breach or default by Pledgor shall be deemed a waiver of any other previous breach or default or of any breach or default occurring thereafter.

8. Future Acts. Until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, except as would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein, Pledgor shall have the duty to make applications on material unregistered but registrable as trademarks in any location where Pledgor does business, to prosecute such applications diligently, and to preserve and maintain all rights in the Trademarks and the other Collateral. Any expenses incurred in connection with such applications and other actions shall be borne by Pledgor. Pledgor shall not abandon any right to file a trademark application or registration for any trademark, or abandon any such pending trademark application or registration, without the consent of Pledgee, except to the extent that such abandonment would not have a material impact on the overall value of all the Collateral or the enforcement, perfection or priority of the security interests therein.

9. Enforcement. Upon Pledgor’s failure to do so after Pledgee’s demand, or upon the continuance and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgee shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit in its own name (as trustee for the Secured Parties) to enforce the Trademarks and Future Trademarks and any license thereunder, in which event Pledgor shall at the request of Pledgee do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents required by Pledgee in aid of such enforcement and Pledgor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Pledgee, each Lender and their respective agents for all costs and expenses incurred by each such Person in the exercise of its rights under this Section 9.

10. Release. Upon a release of the Collateral pursuant to Section 10.03 of the Indenture, the obligations of Pledgor hereunder and the Liens created hereby shall automatically terminate (provided that, in the case of any disposition of a portion of the Collateral, such termination and release shall only apply to the Collateral disposed of), and Pledgee, as agent for the Secured Parties, will execute and deliver to Pledgor all releases or other instruments or take any such other actions as may be necessary or evidence such releases.

11. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon Pledgor or Pledgee under this Agreement shall be given in the manner prescribed by the Indenture.

Except as permitted under the Indenture, no consent to assignment by Pledgee or any Lender shall release Pledgor from its obligations hereunder.
