The following rights, duties and powers of Secured Party are applicable irrespective of whether an Event of Default occurs and is continuing:

Section 5.01 Discharge Encumbrances. Secured Party may, at its option, three (3) Business Days after receipt by Pledgor of prior written notice from Secured Party of its intent to do so, discharge any Liens at any time levied or placed on the Collateral that are prohibited by the Credit Agreement and that are not being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. Xxxxxxx agrees to reimburse Secured Party within five (5) days after demand for any payment so made, plus interest thereon from the date of Secured Party’s demand at the rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in Section 2.13(a) of the Credit Agreement.

Section 5.02 Transfer of Collateral. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, Secured Party may transfer any or all of the Obligations, and upon any such transfer Secured Party may transfer its interest in any or all of the Collateral and shall be fully discharged thereafter from all liability therefor. Any transferee of the Collateral shall be vested with all rights, powers, duties and remedies of Secured Party hereunder.

Section 5.03 Cumulative and Other Rights. The rights, powers and remedies of Secured Party hereunder are in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given by law or in equity. The exercise by Secured Party of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies herein shall not be construed as a waiver of any other rights, powers and remedies, including, without limitation, any other rights of set-off.

Section 5.04 Disclaimer of Certain Duties. The powers conferred upon Secured Party by this Agreement are to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Pledgor hereby agrees that Secured Party shall not be liable for, nor shall the indebtedness evidenced by the Obligations be diminished by, Secured Party’s delay or failure to collect upon, foreclose, sell, take possession of or otherwise obtain value for the Collateral.

Section 5.05 Custody and Preservation of the Collateral. Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which comparable secured parties accord comparable collateral, it being understood and agreed, however, that Secured Party shall not have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against Persons or entities with respect to any Collateral.

ARTICLE VI

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

Section 6.01 Events. An “Event of Default” (as defined in the Credit Agreement) which has occurred and is continuing shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement.

Section 6.02 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Secured Party may take any or all of the following actions without notice or demand to Pledgor (except that Secured Party will not take any action in the case of paragraph (b) below until ten (10) Business Days after receipt by Pledgor of written notice from Secured Party of its intent to do so):

(a) Subject to applicable provisions contained in the Credit Agreement, declare all or part of the indebtedness pursuant to the Obligations immediately due and payable and enforce payment of the same by any Obligor.

(b) Sell, in one or more sales and in one or more parcels, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in any commercially reasonable manner as Secured Party may elect, in a public or private transaction, at any location as deemed reasonable by Secured Party either for cash or credit or for future delivery at such price as Secured Party may reasonably deem fair, and (unless prohibited by the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted in any applicable jurisdiction) Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold and may apply upon the purchase price therefor any Obligations secured hereby. Any such sale or transfer by Secured Party either to itself or to any other Person shall be absolutely free from any claim of right by Pledgor, including any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal which Pledgor has or may have under any rule of law, regulation or statute now existing or hereafter adopted. Upon any such sale or transfer, Secured Party shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser or transferee thereof the Collateral so sold or transferred. If Secured Party reasonably deems it advisable to do so, it may restrict the bidders or purchasers of any such sale or transfer to Persons or entities who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account and not with the view to the distribution or resale of any of the Collateral. Secured Party may, at its discretion, provide for a public sale, and any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as Secured Party may fix in the notice of such sale. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to any such notice. Secured Party may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale by announcement at any time and place fixed for such sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In the event any sale or transfer hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Secured Party, such sale or transfer shall not exhaust the rights of Secured Party hereunder, and Secured Party shall have the right to cause one or more subsequent sales or transfers to be made hereunder. If only part of the Collateral is sold or transferred such that the Obligations remain outstanding (in whole or in part), Secured Party’s rights and remedies hereunder shall not be exhausted, waived or modified, and Secured Party is specifically empowered to make one or more successive sales or transfers until all the Collateral shall be sold or transferred and all the Obligations are paid. In the event that Secured Party elects not to sell the Collateral, Secured Party retains its rights to dispose of or utilize the Collateral or any part or parts thereof in any manner authorized or permitted by law or in equity, and to apply the proceeds of the same towards payment of the Obligations.

(c) Apply proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral to the Obligations in any manner elected by Secured Party and permitted by the Code or otherwise permitted by law or in equity. Such application may include, without limitation, the reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses incurred by Secured Party.

(d) Appoint any Person as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale or transfer by Secured Party of the Collateral.

(e) Receive, change the address for delivery, open and dispose of mail addressed to Xxxxxxx, and to execute, assign and endorse negotiable and other instruments for the payment of money, documents of title or other evidences of payment, shipment or storage for any form of Collateral on behalf of and in the name of Pledgor.

(f) Exercise all other rights and remedies permitted by law or in equity.

Section 6.03 Attorney-in-Fact. Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as Xxxxxxx’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time in Secured Party’s discretion upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, but at Pledgor’s cost and expense, three (3) Business Days after receipt by Pledgor of written notice from Secured Party of its intent to do so, to take any action and to execute any assignment, certificate, financing statement, stock power, notification, document or instrument which Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to Pledgor representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.

Section 6.04 Reasonable Notice. If any applicable provision of any law requires Secured Party to give reasonable notice of any sale or disposition or other action, Pledgor hereby agrees that ten days’ prior written notice shall constitute reasonable notice thereof. Such notice, in the case of public sale, shall state the time and place fixed for such sale and, in the case of private sale, the time after which such sale is to be made.

Section 6.05 Pledged Securities. Upon both (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) either (a) the Loans becoming due and payable at their stated maturity and not paid, (b) the Loans being declared due and payable pursuant to Article VII of the Credit Agreement, or (c) Secured Party giving prior written notice to Pledgor of Secured Party’s intent to exercise its rights under Section 6.02:

(a) All rights of Pledgor to receive the dividends, distributions and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 4.02 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Secured Party who shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such dividends, distributions and interest payments, but Secured Party shall have no duty to receive and hold such distributions, dividends and interest payments and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(b) All distributions, dividends and interest payments which are received by Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6.05 shall be received in trust for the benefit of Secured Party, shall be segregated from other funds of Pledgor and shall be promptly paid over to Secured Party as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

(c) Secured Party may exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any of the Pledged Interests as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion, any and all of the Pledged Interests upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of any issuer of such Pledged Interests or upon the exercise by any such issuer or Secured Party of any right, privilege or option pertaining to any of the Pledged Interests and in connection therewith,

to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Interests with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as it may determine, all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but Secured Party shall have no duty to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

Section 6.06 Non-judicial Enforcement. To the extent permitted by law, Secured Party may enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, and to the extent permitted by law Pledgor expressly waives any and all legal rights which might otherwise require Secured Party to enforce its rights by judicial process.

Section 7.12 Existing Pledge. Pledgor and Secured Party acknowledge that this Agreement amends and restates the Existing Pledge in its entirety, and all security interests created and granted by the Existing Pledge shall continue to exist, remain valid and subsisting, shall not be impaired or released hereby or considered a novation of the obligation thereunder, shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby renewed, extended, carried forward and conveyed as security for the Obligations.
