(c) The Company hereby authorizes the Purchasers to make appropriate notations on the grid attached to the Notes, including the date, outstanding principal amount and any prepayment thereof, which notations shall be conclusive evidence of such date, outstanding principal and prepayment absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Purchasers to make such notation or any error on the Notes shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay, in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Agreement, the principal amount of the Notes together with all interest and other amounts due hereunder.

(d) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each payment of principal of the Notes by the Company shall be made for the account of the holders thereof pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate outstanding principal amounts of the Notes held by them and each payment of the interest on Notes shall be made for the account of the holders thereof pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Notes then due and payable to the respective Purchasers.

3.3 Interest.

(a) Interest shall be payable on the principal amount of the Notes, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws on any increase thereof as provided below, at the applicable interest rate until paid in full. Interest on the Notes will initially be pay-in-kind at a rate of 12% per annum (“PIK Interest”), which PIK Interest will be capitalized, compounded and added to the unpaid principal amount of the Note Obligations on the applicable Interest Payment Date whereupon from and after such date such additional amount shall be also accrue interest at the interest rate then applicable to the principal amount of the Notes. Interest on the Notes shall automatically convert to accruing cash pay interest at a rate of 10% per annum (the “Cash Interest Rate”) from and including the earlier of (i) March 15, 2021 and (ii) the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 for which the Total Net Leverage Ratio has decreased to 3.39 to 1.0; provided that upon any such reduction in the Total Net Leverage Ratio contemplated by this clause (ii), the Company shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the holders of

In the event of any conversion to the Cash Interest Rate on a date other than an Interest Payment Date, both (i) PIK Interest accrued to, but excluding, the date of conversion, will be capitalized, compounded and added to the unpaid principal amount of the Note Obligations as of the date of conversion and (ii) cash pay interest accrued from the date of conversion shall be paid on the next applicable Interest Payment Date. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, at the election of the Requisite Purchasers and upon written notice thereof to the Company by the Requisite Purchasers, all PIK Interest shall be converted to cash interest at the Cash Interest Rate and become immediately due and payable upon demand by the Requisite Purchasers or otherwise due and payable in cash on the Maturity Date.

(c) The Purchasers and the Company intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury Law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Note Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law from time to time in effect (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”). No Note Party, nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Note Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, and the provisions of this Section 3.3(c) shall control over all other provisions of the Note Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. The Purchasers expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Note Obligation is accelerated. If (i) the maturity of any Note Obligation is accelerated for any reason; (ii) any Note Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate; or (iii) any Purchaser or any other holder of any or all of the Note Obligations shall otherwise collect money which is determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Note Obligations to an amount in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Note Obligations. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Company and the Purchasers (and any other payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense or fee rather than as interest; (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the instruments evidencing the Note Obligations in accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3.3 or Section 3.4, if a court of competent jurisdiction applying applicable law determines in a final

order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Company shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by the Purchasers, is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Interest Rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in Section 3.3(a) through (c) and Section 3.4, unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount which such Purchaser could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be compounded monthly, on the last day of each calendar month, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws; provided that this Section 3.4 shall not apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Purchasers pursuant to Section 10.3.

7.9 Books and Records. Maintain proper books of record and account, in which entries that are full, true and correct in all material respects and are in conformity with GAAP and which reflect all material financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be (it being understood and agreed that certain Foreign Subsidiaries maintain individual books and records in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in their respective countries of organization and that such maintenance shall not constitute a breach of the representations, warranties or covenants hereunder).

7.10 Additional Collateral; Additional Guarantors. At the Company’s expense, subject to the terms, conditions and provisions of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and any applicable limitation in any Collateral Document, take all action necessary or reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to ensure that the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement continues to be satisfied.

7.13 Designation of Subsidiaries.

determined in good faith by the Company or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment therein.

9.1 Note Register.

(a) The Company shall cause to be kept at their principal office a register for the registration and transfer of the Notes (the “Note Register”). The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Notes owing to each holder of Notes pursuant to the terms hereof, the transfer of the Notes and the names and addresses of the transferees of the Notes shall be registered in the Note Register.

(b) The Person in whose name any registered Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until due presentment of such Note for registration of transfer so provided in this Section 9.1(b). Payment of or on account of the principal, interest and any other amount paid on any registered Note shall be made to (or based upon the written order of) such registered holder.

(c) Upon surrender of any Note for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’ expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be in the form of Exhibit A hereto. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes.

9.2 Lost, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes.

Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of a Purchaser being satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company (if such Purchaser is a Purchaser as of the date hereof, a financial institution or another institutional investor, its own agreement being satisfactory) or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender for cancellation of such Note, the Company shall, without charge, issue, register and deliver in lieu of such Note a new Note of like kind representing the same rights represented by and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note. Any such new Note shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Note shall be at any time enforceable by any Person.

9.3 Restriction on Transfer.

Except pursuant to Section 7.15 hereof, no Note holder may transfer any Note or any of the rights of such holder hereunder, prior to January 1, 2021 or without the prior authorization of the Company, provided that a Note holder may transfer all or any portion of such holder’s Notes (together with the related rights hereunder) to a Permitted Transferee of such holder, subject to compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Any attempted transfer that is not in compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, and the Company shall not be required to recognize such transfer or the purported transferee(s) as a holder.

9.4 Restrictive Legend.

Each certificate for the Notes, and each certificate for any such securities issued to subsequent transferees of any such certificate shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE (A) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED A COPY OF THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT, (B) AGREES THAT IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND WILL TAKE NO ACTIONS CONTRARY TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT, (C) AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTS THE COLLATERAL AGENT TO ENTER INTO THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT AS COLLATERAL AGENT AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH HOLDER AND (D) HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE PAYMENT SUBORDINATION AND THE SUBORDINATION OF THE LIENS SECURING THE NOTE OBLIGATIONS ON THE TERMS SET FORTH IN THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT. THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS ARE INTENDED AS AN INDUCEMENT TO THE LENDERS AND/OR PURCHASERS UNDER THE FIRST LIEN LOAN DOCUMENTS (AS

DEFINED IN THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT) AND THE OTHER SECOND LIEN NOTE DOCUMENTS (AS DEFINED IN THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT) TO EXTEND CREDIT TO THE COMPANY AND THE GUARANTORS AND SUCH LENDERS AND/OR PURCHASERS ARE INTENDED THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES OF SUCH PROVISIONS. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT OR INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT AND THIS NOTE OR THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT REFERRED TO ABOVE, THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT SHALL CONTROL.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS NOTE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS.

ADDITIONALLY, THE TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS NOTE IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN THE SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT DATED AS OF MARCH 8, 2018, AMONG THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN OTHER SIGNATORIES THERETO, AS AMENDED, SUPPLEMENTED OR OTHERWISE MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE ISSUER HEREOF.

THIS NOTE HAS BEEN ISSUED WITH “ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT” (WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 1272 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED). UPON WRITTEN REQUEST, THE COMPANY WILL PROMPTLY MAKE AVAILABLE TO ANY HOLDER OF THIS NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION: (1) THE ISSUE PRICE AND DATE OF THE NOTE, (2) THE AMOUNT OF ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT ON THE NOTE AND (3) THE YIELD TO MATURITY OF THE NOTE. HOLDERS SHOULD CONTACT THE TREASURER OF THE COMPANY AT 0000 XXXXXX XXXXX, XXXXX 0000, XXX XXXXXXX, XX 00000.”

9.5 Notice of Transfer. Each holder shall, prior to any Transfer of any Notes permitted hereunder, give three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice (or, if such three Business Day notice period is not reasonably practicable, such notice as is reasonably practicable), to the Company of such holder’s intention to effect such Transfer and to comply in all other respects with the provisions of this Section 9.5 in making such proposed Transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer. Upon the

reasonable request by the Company, the holder delivering such notice shall deliver a written opinion, addressed to the Company, of counsel for such holder (which may be in-house counsel for such holder), stating that in the opinion of such counsel (which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) such proposed Transfer does not involve a transaction requiring registration of such Notes under the Securities Act; provided, however, that (i) in the case of a holder of Notes which is a partnership or a limited liability company, no such opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by such holder of Notes to a partner or member of such holder of Notes, or a retired partner or member of such holder who retires after the date hereof, or the estate of any such partner or member or retired partner or member, if in each case the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Article IX to the same extent as if such transferee were originally a signatory to this Agreement; and (ii) in the case of a holder of Notes which is a corporation or a limited liability company, no such opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by such holder of Notes to an Affiliate, officer, director, member or manager of such entity. Subject to compliance with Section 9.3, such holder shall be entitled to Transfer the Notes in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company, if the Company does not request such opinion, within three Business Days after delivery of such notice or, if the Company does request such opinion, upon its receipt thereof. Each certificate or other instrument evidencing the securities issued upon the Transfer of any Notes (and each certificate or other instrument evidencing any untransferred balance of such Notes) shall bear the applicable legend set forth in Section 9.4 unless (i) such opinion of counsel is to the effect that registration of any future Transfer is not required by the applicable provisions of the Securities Act or (ii) the Company has waived the requirement of such legend.

(a) such default either results from the failure to pay any principal of such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or relates to an obligation other than the obligation to pay principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated final maturity; and

(h) A final judgment or order for the payment of money is entered against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in excess of $20,000,000 in the aggregate (to the extent not covered by either (i) independent third-party insurance as to which the insurer does not deny coverage or (ii) another creditworthy (as reasonably determined by the Collateral Agent) indemnitor and such judgment shall not have been satisfied, vacated, discharged or stayed or bonded pending an appeal for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days; or

(j) (i) An ERISA Event occurs which has resulted or would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) a Note Party, any Restricted Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate fails to pay when due, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, any instalment payment with respect to its withdrawal liability under Section 4201 of ERISA under a Multiemployer Plan and a Material Adverse Effect would reasonably be expected to result or (iii) a termination, withdrawal or noncompliance with applicable Law or plan terms or other event similar to an ERISA Event occurs with respect to a Foreign Plan that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, either individually or in the aggregate with each other such event.

10.2 Acceleration.

If an Event of Default occurs (other than a Specified Event of Default), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Requisite Purchasers may take any of the following actions and at the same or different times: (i) declare the Notes (if outstanding) to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the entire unpaid principal of the Notes, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and all other Note Obligations (including without limitation, any fee), shall become forthwith due and payable in full in cash, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Note Party, anything contained herein or in any other Note Document to the contrary notwithstanding or (ii) exercise any and all other remedies provided under any Note Document upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default; provided, however, that with respect to the occurrence of a Specified Event of Default, the principal of the Notes, together with accrued but unpaid interest and fees thereon and any other liabilities of the Note Parties accrued hereunder or

in any other Note Document, shall automatically become due and payable in full in cash, all without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Note Party, anything contained in this Agreement or in any other Note Document to the contrary notwithstanding. Without limiting the foregoing, any redemption, prepayment, repayment, or payment of the Notes in or in connection with an insolvency proceeding shall constitute an optional prepayment thereof under the terms of Section 3.5 and require the immediate payment of the premium set forth in Section 3.5.

10.3 Waiver of Defaults.

The Requisite Purchasers by notice to the Parent may waive an existing Event of Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note or (b) an Event of Default in respect of a provision that under Section 13.8 cannot be amended without the consent of each Purchaser affected. When an Event of Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any consequent right.

10.4 Control by Majority.

The Requisite Purchasers may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Purchasers or the Collateral Agent or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the holders of the Notes, in each case in its capacity as such. No Purchaser may pursue any remedy with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or the Collateral other than as provided in the preceding sentence, except that the right of any Purchaser to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such Purchaser, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Purchaser.

ARTICLE XII

THE COLLATERAL AGENT

12.1 Appointment.

As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, and in no event later than the Closing Date, the Purchasers agree to appoint a collateral agent mutually agreeable to the Company and the Purchasers (in each case acting reasonably and in good faith) as the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Note Documents as a contractual representative of the Purchasers with respect to the Collateral. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as its agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Note Documents,

including entry into the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement as the agent of such Purchaser. The Collateral Agent agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Note Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Article XII are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers and no Note Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Purchasers and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Note Party.

12.2 Powers and Duties; General Immunity.

(a) Each Purchaser irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action on such Purchaser’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Note Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Collateral Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified in this Agreement and the other Note Documents. The Collateral Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. The Collateral Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Purchaser or any Note Party; and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to any Purchaser for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Note Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by the Collateral Agent to the Purchasers or by or on behalf of any Note Party to the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser in connection with the Note Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Note Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Note Obligations, nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Note Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the sale of the Notes or as to the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding principal amount of the Notes or the component amounts thereof.

(c) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Purchasers for any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the Note Documents except to the extent caused by the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action)

in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from the Requisite Purchasers (or such other Purchasers as may be required to give such instructions hereunder) and, upon receipt of such instructions from the Requisite Purchasers (or such other Purchasers, as the case may be), the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Note Document or applicable laws. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication (including any electronic message), instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Note Parties), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Purchaser shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Collateral Agent as a result of the Collateral Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Purchasers (or such other Purchasers as may be required to give such instructions hereunder).

12.3 Independent Investigation by the Purchasers; No Responsibility For Appraisal of Creditworthiness.

Each Purchaser agrees that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Note Parties in connection with the purchase of the Notes and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Note Parties. The Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Purchasers or to provide any Purchaser with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the Closing or at any time or times thereafter, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Purchasers.

12.4 Right to Indemnity.

Each Purchaser, in proportion to its pro rata share of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by such Purchaser, severally agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, professional advisors and Affiliates to the extent that any such Person shall not have been reimbursed by the Note Parties, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements and fees and disbursements of any financial advisor engaged by the Collateral Agent) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent or such other Person in exercising the powers, rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or performing duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the other Note Documents or otherwise in its capacity as the Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Note

Documents; provided that no Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of the Collateral Agent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to the Collateral Agent or any other such Person for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Collateral Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

12.5 Resignation of Collateral Agent; Successor Collateral Agent.

The Requisite Purchasers may replace the Collateral Agent at any time with or without cause. The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty days’ prior written notice thereof to the Purchasers and the Company. Upon any such notice of resignation by the Collateral Agent, the Requisite Purchasers shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Company, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Purchasers and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Purchasers, appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If the Collateral Agent shall notify the Purchasers and the Company that no Person has accepted such appointment as successor Collateral Agent, such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s notice and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Note Documents, except that any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent will continue to be held by it until a Person shall have accepted the appointment of successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring the Collateral Agent and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement (if not already discharged as set forth above). After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Collateral Agent under this Agreement.

12.6 Collateral Documents.

Each Purchaser hereby further authorizes the Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Purchasers, to enter into each Collateral Document as secured party and to be the agent for and representative of the Purchasers under the Guaranty Agreement, and each Purchaser agrees to be bound by the terms of each Collateral Document and the Guaranty Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall not (a) enter into or consent to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in any Collateral Document, the Guaranty Agreement or (b) release any Collateral (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Document), in each case without the prior written consent of the Requisite Purchasers; provided, further, however, that, without further written consent or authorization from the Purchasers, the Collateral Agent may execute any documents or instruments necessary to release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted by this

Agreement or to which the Requisite Purchasers have otherwise consented in writing. Anything contained in any of the Note Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Note Parties, the Collateral Agent and each Purchaser hereby agree that (1) no Purchaser shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or to enforce the Guaranty Agreement, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents and the Guaranty Agreement may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers in accordance with the terms thereof, and (2) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Purchasers (but not any Purchaser or the Purchasers in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Requisite Purchasers shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Note Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale.

The Company shall indemnify the Collateral Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Purchaser, 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 (other than lost profits), claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by

102

any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Company, any other Note Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Securities Document 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 the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Securities, any other Note Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided 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 bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 13.5(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities, etc., arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) Reimbursement by Purchasers. To the extent that the Company for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 13.5(a) to be paid by it to the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Purchaser severally agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Purchaser’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Purchaser); provided that the unreimbursed indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent (or any such sub-agent) or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Collateral Agent in connection with such capacity.

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or any other party hereto, 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 Securities Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. No Indemnitee 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 Securities Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(d) Payments. All amounts due under Section 13.5 shall be payable promptly after demand therefor.

104

13.8 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay of the Purchasers in exercising any power or right in this Agreement or in any other Securities Document shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise of any other right or power. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Note Document or consent to any departure by the Securities Parties therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be authorized as provided for in Section 13.8(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

13.10 Independence of Covenants, Representations and Warranties.

All agreements and covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a certain action or condition constitutes a default under a certain agreement or covenant, the fact that such action or condition is permitted by another agreement or covenant shall not affect the occurrence of such default, unless expressly permitted under an exception to such initial covenant. In addition, all representations and warranties hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is breached, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the same or similar subject matter is correct or is not breached will not affect the incorrectness or breach of a representation and warranty hereunder.

13.11 No Fiduciary Relationship.

No provision in this Agreement or in any other Securities Document and no course of dealing among the parties hereto shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty by the Purchasers or any of their respective agents or Affiliates to any Note Party or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, stockholders or Affiliates.

It is the intent of the parties, however, that any invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions be automatically replaced by other provisions which are as similar as possible in terms to such invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions but are valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Purchaser or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to identify the Company in accordance with the Patriot Act.

13.19 Lien Termination, Subordination and Release; Guarantee Release.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Securities Document (i) upon payment in full of all Note Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been made), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed or to be Disposed as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Securities Document, (iii) subject to Section 13.8, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Purchasers or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement pursuant to Section 13.9(c);

(b) The Collateral Agent shall subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Securities Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted to be senior to the Liens securing the Note Obligations pursuant to Sections 8.1(b), (u), (w) (with respect to assumed Indebtedness), (aa) (with respect to Section 8.2(b) and (u)) and (bb); and

(c) The Collateral Agent shall release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted under this Agreement or any other Securities Document.

13.20 Pro Forma Calculations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining compliance with any test contained in this Agreement, the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, Total net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Interest Coverage Ratio, Consolidated EBITDA and Total Assets shall be calculated on a pro forma basis to give effect to all Specified Transactions that have been made during the applicable period of measurement or subsequent to such period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation is made in the

107

manner prescribed by this Section 13.20. In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a pro forma basis, the reference to the “Test Period” for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Test Period for which internal financial statements of the Company are available (as determined in good faith by the Company).

(b) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test (including the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Interest Coverage Ratio, Consolidated EBITDA and Total Assets), Specified Transactions (with any incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith to be subject to Section 13.20(d)) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period and (ii) if applicable as described in Section 13.20(a), subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio or test is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day (or, in case of the determination of Total Assets, the last day) of the applicable Test Period. If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 13.20, then such financial ratio or test (and Consolidated EBITDA and Total Assets) shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 13.20.

(c) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company and include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of “run-rate” cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies projected by the Company in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken or expected to be taken (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) and “run-rate” means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target’s compliance costs with public company requirements) net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial pro forma calculations of such financial ratios or tests and during any subsequent Test Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized relating to such Specified Transaction; provided that (i) such amounts are (A) reasonably supportable and quantifiable in the good faith judgment of the Company, (B) reasonably anticipated to be realized not later than 18 months after the date of such Specified Transaction, and (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this Section 13.20 to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period; provided that any increase to Consolidated EBITDA as a result of cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies pursuant to this Section 13.20 shall be subject to the limitations set forth in clause (vii) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA.”

108

(d) In the event that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of any financial ratio or test, (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subject to Section 13.20(a) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period.

In order to induce the Purchasers to enter into the Purchase Agreement and purchase the Notes, and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in the Purchase Agreement, each Guarantor has agreed (to the extent hereinafter provided) to guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations (as hereinafter defined). Accordingly, the Guarantors agree as follows:

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Section 2. The Guarantee.

Section 2.01 The Guarantee. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.08, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally with the other Guarantors, irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to each Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns (i) the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of Title 11 of the United States Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code and any other Debtor Relief Laws) on the Notes and (ii) the due and punctual performance of all Note Obligations, including, without limitation, covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities

from time to time owing to the Purchasers and to the Collateral Agent under the Purchase Agreement and the other Note Documents, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations described in clauses (i) and (ii) being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if the Company or any other Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. Each Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that each Purchaser may enforce this Guaranty up to the full amount guaranteed by the Guarantors hereunder without proceeding against any other obligor, against any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or against the Guarantors under any other guarantee covering the Guaranteed Obligations. All payments made by the Guarantors under this Guaranty shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other demand and shall be paid at the place and in the manner specified in the Purchase Agreement.

Section 2.02 Waiver of Defenses. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by and the Guarantors hereby expressly waive (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this provision, might operate to release or otherwise exonerate the Guarantors from their obligations hereunder in whole or in part, including without limitation, and whether or not known to any Guarantor or any Purchaser:

(a) any time, indulgence or waiver granted to the Company, the Guarantors or any other Person, or any failure to enforce any rights, remedies or securities against the Company, the Guarantors or any other Person;

(b) any taking, variation, renewal, exchange, compromise, release, refusal or neglect to perfect or take up, or failure to realize the full value of any collateral for any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any non-presentment or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument;

(c) any legal limitation, disability, incapacity or other similar circumstance relating to the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person;

(d) any unenforceability, invalidity or frustration of any obligation of the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person under any Note Document or any other document or security, so that the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect, and this Guaranty shall be construed accordingly, as if there were no such unenforceability, invalidity or frustration;

(e) any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, or renewal of the Purchase Agreement or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or other Note Documents or any of the obligations arising thereunder, including without limitation, modifications, extensions or renewals of payment dates or subordination of security;

(f) any other circumstance, condition or event that might constitute or give rise to a defense to performance and/or payment by the Guarantors of their obligations under this Guaranty (other than satisfaction in full and/or payment in full in cash of the obligations in question by the Company or the Guarantors); and

(g) any notice (including notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty), promptness, diligence, presentment, protest and demand with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and all other demands whatsoever, and, to the extent a Guarantor may legally do so, the benefit of all provisions of any Laws which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty.

Section 2.03 Immediate Recourse. Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Purchaser, the Collateral Agent or any other Person to proceed or enforce any rights against the Company or any Collateral, or to claim from the Company or any other Person, before making a claim against the Guarantors under this Guaranty.

Section 2.04 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 2 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company or any other Note Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 2.05 Preservation of Rights. Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Company in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably and unconditionally paid and discharged in full, the Purchasers and the Collateral Agent may:

(a) refrain from applying or enforcing any other security or rights held or received by the Collateral Agent or the Purchasers, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers see fit (whether against such amounts or otherwise); and

(b) hold in a suspense account (with interest accruing thereon, which shall be credited to such suspense account) any moneys received by them from the Guarantors or on account of the Guarantors’ liabilities under this Guaranty.

Section 2.06 Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such Guarantor and the Purchasers, the obligations of the Company under the Purchase Agreement and the Notes may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement) for purposes of Section 2.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Company and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 2.01.

Section 2.07 Continuing Guaranty. The guarantees in this Section 2 are continuing guarantees, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 2.08 General Limitation on Guaranty Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 2.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 2.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Note Party, the Purchasers or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the liability under this Guaranty) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 2.09 Additional Security. This Guarantee shall be in addition to, and shall not in any way be prejudiced by, any other security now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Purchasers as security for the obligations of the Company under the Purchase Agreement, it being acknowledged and agreed by the Guarantors that payments by the Guarantors hereunder shall not constitute security for the Notes.

(a) As of the Closing Date, each Grantor has delivered or caused to be delivered to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement), for the benefit of the Secured Parties, any and all Pledged Equity evidenced by a certificate and, to the extent required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(b) below, any and all Pledged Debt; provided that no Grantor shall be required to take any action to perfect the interest of the Secured Parties in the Pledged Equity of Foreign Subsidiaries that are Immaterial Subsidiaries, including but not limited to delivering any pledges under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction and delivering or causing to be delivered any certificates evidencing such Pledged Equity. Each Grantor agrees promptly (but in any event within 10 Business Days after receipt by such Grantor or such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement), for the benefit of the Secured Parties, any and all Pledged Equity acquired after the Closing Date that is evidenced by a certificate and, to the extent required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(b), any and all Pledged Debt acquired after the Closing Date.

(b) Each Grantor will cause any Indebtedness for borrowed money having an aggregate principal amount in excess of $5,000,000 owed to such Grantor by any Person that is evidenced by a duly executed promissory note to be pledged and delivered to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement), for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c) Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement), any Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by stock or security powers, endorsements or allonges duly executed in blank or other instruments of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (other than instruments or documents requiring actions in any non-U.S. jurisdiction related to Equity Interests of Foreign Subsidiaries). Each delivery of Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the Pledged Securities, which schedule shall be deemed to supplement Schedule II and made a part hereof; provided that failure to supplement Schedule II shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered.

(d) No actions in any non-U.S. jurisdiction or required by the Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction shall be required in order to create any security interests in assets located, titled, registered or filed outside of the U.S. or to perfect such security interests (it being understood that there shall be no security agreements or pledge agreements governed under the Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction).

Section 2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants to and with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that:

(a) As of the date hereof, Schedule II includes all Equity Interests, debt securities and promissory notes required to be pledged by such Grantor hereunder in order to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement;

(b) the Pledged Equity issued by the Issuer or a wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary have been duly and validly authorized and issued by the issuers thereof and are fully paid and non-assessable (if applicable);

(d) as of the Closing Date, except for restrictions and limitations (i) imposed or permitted by the Note Documents, Contractual Obligations permitted pursuant to Section 8.8 of the SPA, or securities laws generally, (ii) imposed by the Communications Act with respect to any proposed transfer of control or assignment of a FCC Authorization, and (iii) in the case of Pledged Equity of Persons that are not Subsidiaries, transfer restrictions that exist at the time of acquisition of Equity Interests in such Persons (but not entered into in contemplation thereof), the Pledged Collateral is freely transferable and assignable, and none of the Pledged Collateral is subject to any option, right of first refusal, shareholders agreement, charter or bylaw provisions or contractual restriction of any nature that could reasonably be expected to prohibit, impair, delay or otherwise affect, in each case, in any manner material and adverse to the Secured Parties the pledge of such Pledged Collateral hereunder, the sale or disposition thereof pursuant hereto or the exercise by the Collateral Agent of rights and remedies hereunder;

(e) the execution and performance by the Grantors of this Agreement are within each Grantor’s corporate or limited liability company powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action or other organizational action;

(f) no approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action, filing, notice or registration is necessary to ensure the validity of the pledge effected hereby, except for (i) approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations, or other actions by, or notices to, or filings and registrations necessary to perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Note Parties in favor of the Secured Parties (or release existing Liens) under applicable U.S. law, (ii) the approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations, actions, notices and filings which have been duly obtained, taken, given or made and are in full force and effect (except to the extent not required to be obtained, taken, given or made or in full force and effect pursuant to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement) and (iii) those approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations or other actions, notices or filings, the failure of which to obtain or make could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(g) by virtue of the execution and delivery by each Grantor of this Agreement, and delivery of the Pledged Equity to and continued possession by the Collateral Agent in the State of New York, the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) has a legal, valid and perfected second-priority lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Equity as security for the payment and performance of the Note Obligations to the extent such perfection is governed by the UCC, subject only to Liens permitted by Section 8.2 of the SPA and the Enforcement Qualifications;

(h) by virtue of (i) the filing of UCC financing statements or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations prepared by the Collateral Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in the applicable filing office, in each case, as required by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and Section 7.10 of the SPA and (ii) delivery of the Pledged Debt to and continued possession of the Pledged Debt by the

Collateral Agent in the State of New York, the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) has a legal, valid and perfected security interest in respect of all Collateral in which the Security Interest in the Pledged Debt may be perfected by filing or recording in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the UCC or by possession of the Pledged Debt (subject, in each case, to the Enforcement Qualifications); and

(i) the pledge effected hereby is effective to vest in the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the rights set forth herein of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Collateral.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, each Grantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it will comply with instructions of the Collateral Agent with respect to the Equity Interests in such Grantor that constitute Pledged Equity hereunder without further consent by the applicable owner or holder of such Equity Interests.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent any provision of this Agreement or the SPA excludes any assets from the scope of the Pledged Collateral, or from any requirement to take any action to perfect any security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Collateral, the representations, warranties and covenants made by any relevant Grantor in this Agreement with respect to the creation, perfection or priority (as applicable) of the security interest granted in favor of the Collateral Agent (including, without limitation, this Section 2.03) shall be deemed not to apply to such excluded assets.

Section 2.04. Certification of Limited Liability Company and Limited Partnership Interest. No interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor that constitutes Pledged Equity is, or shall be, represented by a certificate unless the limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement expressly provides that such interests shall be a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC; provided that, (x) regardless of whether such Pledged Equity is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, any and all certificates evidencing such Pledged Equity shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement) in accordance with Section 2.02 and (y) the certification of the Equity Interests of each of N44 HQ, LLC, Emerging Markets Communications, LLC and EMC Satcom Technologies, LLC shall not be deemed to violate this Section 2.04 so long as any and all certificates evidencing such Equity Interests are delivered to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement) in accordance with Section 2.02(a) hereof and the applicable Grantor shall have fulfilled all other requirements under Section 2.02 hereof applicable in respect thereof. If any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor, the interest of which is pledged under Section 2.01, includes in its limited liability company agreement or partnership agreement that any interests in such limited liability company or such limited partnership be a “security” as defined under Article 8 of the UCC, the applicable Grantor shall promptly certificate any Equity Interests in any such limited liability company or such limited partnership. To the extent an interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 2.01 is certificated or becomes certificated, (i) each such certificate shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to Section 2.02(a) and (ii) such Grantor shall fulfill all other requirements under Section 2.02 applicable in respect thereof. To the extent an interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 2.01 is an “uncertificated security” as defined under Article 8 of the UCC, each Grantor shall not permit any issuer of such uncertificated securities (other than (x) an uncertificated security credited on the books of a

Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary and (y) an uncertificated security issued by a Person that is not a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) to (i) enter into any agreement with any Person, other than the Collateral Agent, whereby such issuer effectively delivers “control” of such uncertificated securities under the UCC to such Person, or (ii) allow such uncertificated securities to become “certificated securities”, as defined under Article 8 of the UCC, unless such Grantor complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04.

Section 2.05. Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given the Issuer two (2) Business Days prior written notice of its intent to exercise such rights, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, (a) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to hold the Pledged Equity in its own name as pledgee, the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as subagent) or the name of the applicable Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent and each Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any written notices or other written communications received by it with respect to Pledged Equity registered in the name of such Grantor and (b) to the extent permitted by the documentation governing such Pledged Equity, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Equity for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.

Section 2.06. Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have provided two (2) Business Days prior written notice to the Issuer that the rights of the Grantor under this Section 2.06 are being suspended:

(i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof and each Grantor agrees that it shall not exercise such rights in violation of this Agreement, the SPA and the other Note Documents.

(ii) The Collateral Agent shall promptly (after reasonable advance notice) execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (i) above.

(iii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the SPA, the other Note Documents and applicable Laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Equity or Pledged Debt, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and

apart therefrom, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall be promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days or such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly deliver to each Grantor any Pledged Securities in its possession if requested to be delivered to the issuer thereof in connection with any exchange or redemption of such Pledged Securities permitted by the SPA in accordance with this Section 2.06(a)(iii).

(b) Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent shall have notified the Issuer of the suspension of the Grantors’ rights under paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06, then all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 2.06 shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days or such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) delivered to the Collateral Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06 and that remain in such account.

(c) Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent shall have provided the Issuer with notice of the suspension of its rights under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, then all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Requisite Purchasers, the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Grantor shall have the exclusive right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that the Issuer would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(i) above, and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06 shall be reinstated.

(d) In order to permit the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder, each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Collateral Agent all proxies, dividend

payment orders and other instruments as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request, but in any event solely after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and after having provided required notice to Issuer of its desire to exercise its rights hereunder, and each Grantor acknowledges that the Collateral Agent may utilize the power of attorney set forth in Section 6.13 herein in accordance with the terms thereof.

(e) Any notice given by the Collateral Agent to the Issuer under Section 2.05 or this Section 2.06 (i) shall be given in writing, (ii) may be given with respect to one or more Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under paragraph (a)(i) or paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 in part without suspending all such rights (as specified by the Collateral Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights to give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Note Document, the Collateral Agent shall not exercise voting rights under this Section 2.06 with respect to any Pledged Securities unless and until it has obtained FCC consent to any transfers of control or assignments that would result from the assumption of voting rights for such Pledged Securities (if applicable).

(c) The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral; provided that the foregoing will not limit or otherwise affect the obligations and liabilities of the Grantors to the extent set forth herein and in the other Note Documents.

(d) Upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice (or, with respect to filings as of the Closing Date, without any such notice) to the applicable Grantor, the Collateral Agent is authorized to file with the USPTO or the USCO (or any successor office) additional documents (including any Intellectual Property Security Agreements and/or supplements thereto) as may be necessary for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest in the Registered Intellectual Property Collateral of each Grantor in which a security interest has been granted by each Grantor, and naming any Grantor as debtor and the Collateral Agent as secured party.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Note Documents, none of the Grantors shall be required, nor is the Collateral Agent authorized, (i) to perfect the Security Interests granted by this Agreement (including Security Interests in Investment Property and Fixtures) by any means other than by (A) filings pursuant to the UCC in the office of the secretary of state (or similar central filing office) of the relevant State(s), and filings in the applicable real estate records with respect to any fixtures relating to Mortgaged Property to the extent required by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, (B) filings in United States government offices with respect to Intellectual Property of Grantor as expressly required elsewhere herein, (C) delivery to the Collateral Agent (or to the First Lien Administrative Agent pursuant to the First Lien Security Agreement), to be held in its possession of all Collateral consisting of Instruments or certificated Pledged Collateral as expressly required elsewhere herein or (D) other methods expressly provided herein, (ii) to enter into any deposit account control agreement, securities account control agreement or any other control agreement with respect to any deposit account, securities account or any other Collateral that requires perfection by “control,” (iii) to take any action (other than the actions listed in clauses (i)(A) and (C) above) with respect to any assets located outside of the United States or any other assets, including any Intellectual Property registered in any non-U.S. jurisdiction (and no security agreements or pledge agreements governed under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction shall be required), (iv) to perfect in any assets subject to a certificate of title statute or (v) to deliver any Equity Interests except as expressly provided in Section 2.02.

Section 3.02. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties that:

(a) Each Grantor has good and valid rights in and title (except as otherwise permitted by the Note Documents) to (or, with respect to Licenses, a license or other permission to use) the Article 9 Collateral with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full organizational power and authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority other than (i) any consent or approval that has been obtained or (ii) any consent or approval for which the lack thereof could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information set forth therein is correct and complete in all material respects (except the information therein with respect to the exact legal name of each Grantor shall be correct and complete in all respects) as of the Closing Date. The UCC financing statements or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations prepared by the Collateral Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in the applicable filing office (or specified by notice from the Issuer to the Collateral Agent after the Closing Date in the case of filings, recordings or registrations (other than filings required to be made in the USPTO and the USCO in order to perfect the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral consisting of Registered Intellectual Property Collateral), in each case, as required by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and Section 7.10 of the SPA), are all the filings, recordings and registrations that are necessary to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the UCC; provided, however, that additional filings may be necessary in the USPTO and USCO to perfect the Security Interest in any Registered Intellectual Property Collateral acquired, owned, filed or developed by or on behalf of any Grantor after the date hereof.

(c) Each Grantor represents and warrants that the Intellectual Property Security Agreements containing a description of all Registered Intellectual Property Collateral (other than, in each case, any Excluded Assets), have been delivered as of or prior to the date hereof to the Collateral Agent for recording with the USPTO and the USCO pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations thereunder, as applicable (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Registered Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent required by this Agreement or the SPA. To the extent a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration with the USPTO or the USCO under the U.S. Federal intellectual property laws, then no further or subsequent filing, re-filing, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than (i) such filings and actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Registered Intellectual Property Collateral acquired, owned, filed or developed by or on behalf of any Grantor after the date hereof and (ii) the UCC financing and continuation statements contemplated in Section 3.02(b)).

(d) The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Note Obligations, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section 3.02(b), a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) pursuant to the UCC, and (iii) subject to the filings described in Section 3.02(c), a perfected security interest in all Intellectual Property included in the Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a security agreement or analogous document with the USPTO or the USCO, as applicable. Subject to the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, the Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, other than any Liens permitted pursuant to Section 8.2 of the SPA.

(e) The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, except for Liens permitted pursuant to Section 8.2 of the SPA. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of (i) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the USPTO or the USCO or (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 8.2 of the SPA and assignments expressly permitted by the SPA.

(f) As of the date hereof, no Grantor has any Commercial Tort Claim in respect of which a complaint or a counterclaim has been filed by such Grantor, seeking damages in an amount reasonably estimated to exceed $5,000,000, other than the Commercial Tort Claims listed on Schedule III.

Section 3.03. Covenants.

(a) The Issuer agrees to notify the Collateral Agent in writing (x) promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days following (or such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), any change in (i) the legal name of any Grantor, (ii) the identity or type of organization or corporate structure of any Grantor, or (iii) the jurisdiction of organization of any Grantor and (y) promptly, but at any event within twenty (20) Business Days (or such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) after any change in (i) the chief executive office of any Grantor or (ii) the organizational identification number of such Grantor, if any.

(b) Subject to Section 3.01(e), each Grantor shall, at its own expense, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Collateral against all Persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not permitted pursuant to Section 8.2 of the SPA; provided that, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of its assets or properties if such discontinuance is permitted by the SPA.

(c) Subject to Section 3.01(e), each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to promptly execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request to better assure, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and taxes reasonably required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements or other documents in connection herewith or therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or in any other Note Document shall require any Grantor to make any filings or take any other actions in any jurisdiction outside of the United States to record or perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in any Intellectual Property of any Grantor.

(d) Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, at its option after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Grantors, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 8.2 of the SPA, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the SPA or any other Note Document and within a reasonable period of time after the Collateral Agent has required that it do so, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the SPA; provided, however, the Grantors shall not be obligated to reimburse the Collateral Agent with respect to any Intellectual Property that any Grantor has failed to maintain or pursue, or otherwise allowed to lapse, terminate or be put into the public domain in accordance with Section 3.03(f)(iv). Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Note Documents.

(e) If at any time any Grantor shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or any other Person the value of which is in excess of $2,500,000 to secure payment and performance of an Account, such Grantor shall promptly grant a security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such grant shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in any Excluded Assets. Such grant need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.

(f) Intellectual Property Covenants.

(i) Other than to the extent not prohibited herein or in the SPA, or with respect to registrations and applications no longer used by or useful to Grantors in the applicable Grantor’s business operations, or except to the extent failure to act would not,

as deemed by the applicable Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to each registration or pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property for which such Grantor has standing to do so, each Grantor agrees to take, at its expense, all reasonable steps, including, without limitation, in the USPTO, the USCO and any other governmental authority located in the United States, to pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark, or Copyright registration or application now or hereafter included in the Collateral owned by such Grantor that are not Excluded Assets.

(ii) Other than to the extent not prohibited herein or in the SPA, or with respect to registrations and applications no longer used by or useful to Grantors in the applicable Grantor’s business operations, or except as would not, as deemed by the applicable Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, excluding Excluded Assets, may lapse, be terminated, become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain (or in the case of a trade secret, become publicly known).

(iii) Other than as excluded or as not prohibited herein or in the SPA, or with respect to Patents, Copyrights or Trademarks which are no longer used by or useful to Grantors in the applicable Grantor’s business operations, or except where failure to do so would not, as deemed by the applicable Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall take all reasonable steps to preserve and protect each item of Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks owned by such Grantor, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the Closing Date, and taking reasonable steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the Trademarks abide by the applicable license’s terms with respect to standards of quality.

(iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement or any other Note Document prevents or shall be deemed to prevent any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or maintenance of, failing to pursue, or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or be put into the public domain, any of its Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the SPA if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such disposition of, discontinuance, failure to pursue, or other allowance to lapse, termination, or placement in the public domain is desirable in the conduct of its business.

(v) Within the same delivery period as required for the delivery of the financial statements required to be delivered under Section 7.1(a) and (b) of the SPA, the Issuer shall provide a list of any Registered Intellectual Property Collateral owned by all Grantors not listed in any Intellectual Property Security Agreement previously delivered to the Collateral Agent, together with supplemental Intellectual Property Security Agreements covering all such Registered Intellectual Property Collateral duly executed by such Grantors and in proper form for recording, and shall promptly file and record such supplemental Intellectual Property Security Agreements with the USPTO or the USCO, as applicable.

(g) Commercial Tort Claims. If the Grantors shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount reasonably estimated by such Grantor to exceed $5,000,000 for which this clause has not been satisfied and for which a complaint in a court of competent jurisdiction has been filed, such Grantor shall, on the date on which financial statements are delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 7.1(a) or (b) of the SPA for the fiscal quarter in which such complaint was filed, notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor including a summary description of such claim and grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 4

REMEDIES

Section 4.01. Remedies Upon Default. Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party with respect to the Note Obligations, including the obligations arising pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement, under the UCC or other applicable Law or in equity and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent, promptly assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under Law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with written notice thereof prior to such occupancy; (iii) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with written notice thereof prior to such exercise; and (iv) subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable Law and the notice requirements described below, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral securing the Note Obligations at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. The Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale of securities (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by Law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any Law now existing or hereafter enacted.

The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is commercially reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral

Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent 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 sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable Law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Note Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at Law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

Section 4.02. Application of Proceeds. The Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, first, to the payment of the Note Obligations then due and owing, and second, the balance, if any, to the Issuer or as otherwise required by applicable law.

The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

The Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on information supplied to it as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Note Obligations, provided that nothing in this sentence shall prevent any Grantor from contesting any amounts claimed by any Secured Party in any information so supplied. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be final (absent manifest error).

Section 4.03. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, for the exclusive purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at and during the continuance of such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies at any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent a nonexclusive, royalty-free, limited license (exercisable until the termination or cure of the Event of Default) to use, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor or for which such Grantor has the ability to grant sublicenses, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided, however, that all of the foregoing rights of the Collateral Agent to use such licenses, sublicenses and other rights, and (to the extent permitted by the terms of such licenses and sublicenses) all licenses and sublicenses granted thereunder, shall expire immediately upon the termination or cure of all Events of Default (together with the Issuer’s written notice to the Collateral Agent of such termination or cure) and shall be exercised by the Collateral Agent solely in connection with the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 4.01 and, to the extent reasonably practicable, upon prior written notice to the Issuer, and nothing in this Section 4.03 shall require Grantors to grant any license that is prohibited by any rule of law, statute or regulation, or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing, giving rise to or theretofore granted, to the extent permitted by the SPA, with respect to such property or otherwise unreasonably prejudices the value thereof to the relevant Grantor; provided, further, that any such license and any such license granted by the Collateral Agent to a third party shall include reasonable and customary terms and conditions necessary to preserve the existence, validity and enforceability of the affected Intellectual Property, including provisions requiring the continuing confidential handling of trade secrets, requiring the use of appropriate notices and prohibiting the use of false notices, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to Patents, copyright notices and restrictions on decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software (it being understood and agreed that, without limiting any other rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, any other Note Document or applicable Law, nothing in the foregoing license grant shall be construed as granting the Collateral Agent rights in and to such Intellectual Property above and beyond (x) the rights to such Intellectual Property that each Grantor has reserved for itself and (y) in the case of Intellectual Property that is licensed to any such Grantor by a third party, the extent to which such Grantor has the right to grant a sublicense under such Intellectual Property hereunder). For the avoidance of doubt, the use of such license by the Collateral Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, only during the continuance of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may also exercise the rights afforded under Section 4.01 of this Agreement with respect to Intellectual Property contained in the Article 9 Collateral.

Section 4.04. Effect of Securities Laws. Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.

Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the applicable issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

Section 4.05. Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Note Obligations and, to the extent set forth herein and in the other Note Documents, the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

Section 4.06. FCC Authorizations; Related Collateral.

(a) The Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder (and the rights of any receiver appointed by reason of the exercise of remedies hereunder) with respect to the FCC Authorizations and any Collateral subject to such FCC Authorizations, as applicable, are expressly subject to, and limited by any obligations and/or restrictions imposed by, the Communications Act.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but without waiving or limiting any obligations of any Grantor hereunder, neither the Collateral Agent nor any receiver appointed by reason of the exercise of remedies hereunder shall control, supervise, direct, or manage, or attempt to control, supervise, direct, or manage, the business of any Grantor, in any case that would constitute or result in any assignment of any FCC Authorization or a direct or indirect transfer of control of any Grantor, or any FCC Authorization, whether de jure or de facto, if such assignment or such direct or indirect transfer of control would require, under the Communications Act, the prior approval of the FCC or any other Governmental Authority without first obtaining such approval.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions herein, each Grantor agrees to take any lawful action with respect to requesting and obtaining any approvals from any Governmental Authority that may be required by Law which the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties by this Agreement, including, specifically, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and an exercise of the Collateral Agent’s remedies hereunder, such Grantor’s full cooperation in lawfully obtaining any approval of the FCC and of any other Governmental Authority that is then required under the Communications Act or any other Law for the exercise of the Collateral Agent’s remedies under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 5

SUBORDINATION

Section 5.01. Subordination.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Grantors to indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable Law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full of the Note Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted). No failure on the part of the Issuer or any other Grantor to make the payments required under applicable Law or otherwise shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Grantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Grantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the Obligations of such Grantor hereunder.

(b) Each Grantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after written notice from the Collateral Agent, all Indebtedness owed to it by any other Grantor shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full of the Note Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted).

ARTICLE 6

All communications and notices hereunder to the Issuer or any other Grantor shall be given to it in care of the Issuer as provided in Section 13.1 of the SPA.

Section 6.02. Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay by any Secured Party in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Note Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Secured Parties herein provided, and provided under each other Note Document, are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 6.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the issuance of a Note to a Purchaser shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and any consent required in accordance with Section 13.8 of the SPA.

Section 6.03. Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) The parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred hereunder and indemnity for its actions in connection herewith as provided in Sections 13.4 and 13.5 of the SPA.

(b) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Note Obligations secured hereby and by the other Collateral Documents. The provisions of this Section 6.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Note Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated

hereby, the repayment of any of the Note Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Note Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section 6.03 shall be payable within 30 days of written demand therefor (including documentation reasonably supporting such request).

Section 6.04. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties here to and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 6.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Grantors hereunder and in the other Note Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Note Documents, the issuance of any Notes to a Purchaser, regardless of any investigation made by any Secured Party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time any Note was purchased under the SPA, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as this Agreement has not been terminated or released pursuant to Section 6.11 below.
