SPECIAL PROVISIONS CONCERNING

RECEIVABLES; CONTRACT RIGHTS; INSTRUMENTS

          3.1 Additional Representations and Warranties. As of the time when each of its Receivables arises, each Assignor shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Receivable, and all material records, papers and documents relating thereto (if any) are genuine and in all material respects what they purport to be, and that all papers and documents (if any) relating thereto (i) will be the only original writings evidencing and embodying such obligation of the account debtor named therein (other than copies created for general accounting purposes) and (ii) will, to the knowledge of such Assignor, evidence true and valid obligations of the account debtor named therein.

          3.2 Maintenance of Records. Each Assignor will keep and maintain at its own cost and expense satisfactory and complete records of its Receivables and Contracts, and such Assignor will make the same available to the Collateral Agent for inspection, at such Assignor’s own cost and expense, at any and all reasonable times (i.e., during normal business hours) and upon reasonable prior notice to such Assignor. If requested by the Collateral Agent while an

8

Event of Default is in existence, such Assignor shall, at its own cost and expense, deliver all tangible evidence of its Receivables and Contract Rights (including, without limitation, copies of all documents evidencing the Receivables and all Contracts) and such books and records to the Collateral Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Assignor). If the Collateral Agent so directs, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Assignor shall legend, in form and manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, the Receivables and Contracts, as well as books, records and documents of such Assignor evidencing or pertaining to such Receivables with an appropriate reference to the fact that such Receivables and Contracts have been assigned to the Collateral Agent and that the Collateral Agent has a security interest therein.

          3.3 Modification of Terms; etc. No Assignor shall rescind or cancel any indebtedness evidenced by any Receivable or under any Contract, or modify any term thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto, or extend or renew the same, or compromise or settle any material dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating thereto, or sell any Receivable or Contract, or interest therein, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, except (i) as permitted by Section 3.4 hereof and (ii) in accordance with such Assignor’s reasonable business practices. Each Assignor will duly fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with all material Receivables and Contracts and will do nothing to impair the rights of the Collateral Agent in the Receivables or Contracts.

          3.4 Collection. Each Assignor shall endeavor in accordance with reasonable business practices to cause to be collected from the account debtor named in each of its Receivables or obligor under any Contract, as and when due (including, without limitation, amounts which are delinquent, such amounts to be collected in accordance with generally accepted lawful collection procedures) any and all amounts owing under or on account of such Receivable or Contract, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such Receivable or under such Contract, except that, so long as no Event of Default is then in existence in respect of which the Collateral Agent has given notice that this exception is no longer applicable, any Assignor may allow in the ordinary course of business as adjustments to amounts owing under its Receivables and Contracts (i) an extension or renewal of the time or times of payment, or settlement for less than the total unpaid balance, which such Assignor finds appropriate in accordance with sound business judgment and (ii) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged merchandise or improperly performed services. The reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) of collection, whether incurred by any Assignor or the Collateral Agent, shall be borne by such Assignor.

          3.5 Direction to Account Debtors; etc. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Noticed Event of Default, and if the Collateral Agent so directs any Assignor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Assignor agrees (x) to cause all payments on account of the Receivables and Contracts to be made directly to the Cash Collateral Account, (y) that the Collateral Agent may, at its option, directly notify the obligors with respect to any Receivables and/or under any Contracts to make payments with respect thereto as provided in preceding clause (x) and (z) that the Collateral Agent may enforce collection of any Receivables or Contracts and may adjust, settle or compromise the amount of payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Assignor. The Collateral Agent may apply any or all amounts then in, or thereafter deposited in, the Cash Collateral Account in the manner provided

9

in Section 7.4 of this Agreement. The reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of collection, whether incurred by any Assignor or the Collateral Agent, shall be borne by such Assignor. The Collateral Agent shall deliver a copy of each notice referred to in the preceding clause (y) to the relevant Assignor; provided that, the failure of the Collateral Agent to so notify such Assignor shall not affect the effectiveness of such notice or the other rights of the Collateral Agent created by this Section 3.5.

          3.6 Instruments. If any Assignor owns or acquires any Instrument, such Assignor will within 30 Business Days notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and upon request by the Collateral Agent promptly deliver such Instrument (other than checks payable to any Assignor and processed in the ordinary course of business) to the Collateral Agent appropriately endorsed to the order of the Collateral Agent as further security hereunder.

          3.7 Further Actions. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps, including any and all actions as may be necessary or required under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, relating to its Receivables, Contracts, Instruments and other property or rights covered by the security interest hereby granted, as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require to give effect to the purposes of this Agreement.

          3.8 Assignors Remain Liable Under Receivables and Contracts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Assignors shall remain liable under each of the Receivables and each Contract to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by them thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of the agreement giving rise to such Receivables or such Contract. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Creditor shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or any Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor of any payment relating to such Receivable or such Contract pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Assignor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or any Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by them or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or any Contract, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to them or to which they may be entitled at any time or times.

          3.9 Deposit Accounts; Etc. (a) No Unrestricted Assignor maintains, or at any time after the date hereof shall establish or maintain, any demand, time, savings, passbook or similar account, except for such accounts maintained with a bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) whose jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) is within a State of the United States, provided that an Unrestricted Assignor may maintain or establish an account or accounts outside of the United States on terms, and in circumstances, reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, so long as (i) the aggregate amount of cash in all such accounts maintained outside the United States (exclusive of any amounts deposited in any

10

such account representing monies from revenue generated exclusively from operations outside the United States) shall not exceed $150,000,000 and (ii) the aggregate amount of cash in all such accounts maintained outside the United States in excess of the amount permitted in preceding clause (i) does not exceed an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (each such account outside the United States meeting the foregoing requirements, a “Non-U.S. Deposit Account”). Annex J hereto accurately sets forth, as of the date of this Agreement, for each Unrestricted Assignor, each Deposit Account maintained by such Unrestricted Assignor (including a description thereof and the respective account number), the name of the respective bank with which such Deposit Account is maintained, and the jurisdiction of the respective bank with respect to such Deposit Account. For each Perfected Deposit Account, the respective Unrestricted Assignor shall cause the bank with which the Perfected Deposit Account is maintained to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, within 60 days after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date or, if later, at the time of the establishment of the respective Perfected Deposit Account, a “control agreement” in the form of Annex L hereto (appropriately completed), with such changes thereto as may be approved by the Collateral Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). If any bank with which a Perfected Deposit Account is maintained refuses to, or does not, enter into such a “control agreement”, then the respective Unrestricted Assignor shall promptly (and in any event within 60 days after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date or, if later, 60 days after the opening of such account) close the respective Perfected Deposit Account and transfer all balances therein to the Cash Collateral Account or another Perfected Deposit Account meeting the requirements of this Section 3.9. If any bank with which a Perfected Deposit Account is maintained refuses to subordinate all its claims with respect to such Perfected Deposit Account to the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein on terms satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, then the Collateral Agent, at its option, may (x) require that such Perfected Deposit Account be terminated in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence or (y) agree to a “control agreement” without such subordination, provided that in such event the Collateral Agent may at any time, at its option, subsequently require that such Perfected Deposit Account be terminated (within 60 days after notice from the Collateral Agent) in accordance with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence.

          (B) After the date hereof, no Unrestricted Assignor shall establish any new demand, time, savings, passbook or similar account, except for Perfected Deposit Accounts established and maintained with banks and meeting the requirements of preceding clause (a).

ARTICLE VI

PROVISIONS CONCERNING ALL COLLATERAL

          6.1 Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. Each Assignor will at all times keep its Inventory and Equipment insured in favor of the Collateral Agent, at its own expense, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement; copies of all policies or certificates with respect to such insurance (i) shall be endorsed to the Collateral Agent’s reasonable satisfaction for the benefit of the Collateral Agent (including, without limitation, by naming the Collateral Agent as loss payee and the Collateral Agent and the other relevant Secured Creditors as additional insureds), (ii) shall state that such insurance policies shall not be cancelled or materially revised without at least 30 days’ (or at least 10 days’ in the case of nonpayment of premium) prior written notice thereof by the insurer to the Collateral Agent and (iii) shall be deposited with the Collateral Agent. If any Assignor shall fail to insure such Inventory or Equipment to the extent required by the Credit Agreement, or if any Assignor shall fail to so endorse and deposit copies of all policies or certificates with respect thereto, the Collateral Agent shall have the right (but shall be under no obligation), upon prior written notice to such Assignor, to procure such insurance and such Assignor agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses of procuring such insurance. Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall apply any proceeds of such insurance required after a Noticed Event of Default in accordance with Section 7.4 (it being understood that so long as no Noticed Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent will release any interest it has in the proceeds of any casualty insurance to the Assignors). Each Assignor assumes all liability and responsibility in connection with the Collateral acquired by it and the liability of such Assignor to pay its Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the fact that such Collateral may be lost, destroyed, stolen, damaged or for any reason whatsoever unavailable to such Assignor.

          6.2 Further Actions. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such lists, descriptions and designations of its Collateral, warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the Collateral and other property or rights covered by the security interest hereby granted, which the Collateral Agent deems reasonably appropriate or advisable to perfect, preserve or protect its security interest in the Collateral.

          6.3 Financing Statements. Each Assignor agrees to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such financing statements, in form acceptable to the Collateral Agent, as the

17

Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request or as are reasonably necessary or desirable in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent to establish and maintain a valid, enforceable, first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject to the Permitted Liens) as provided herein and the other rights and security contemplated hereby all in accordance with the UCC as enacted in any and all relevant jurisdictions or any other relevant law. Each Assignor will pay any applicable filing fees, recordation taxes and related expenses. Each Assignor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file any such financing statements (including, without limitation, (x) financing statements which list the Collateral specifically and/or “all assets” as collateral and (y) “in lieu of” financing statements) without the signature of such Assignor where permitted by law.

          6.4 Additional Information. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, promptly (and in any event within 10 days after its receipt of the respective request) furnish to the Collateral Agent such information with respect to the Collateral (including the identity of the Collateral or such components thereof as may have been requested by the Collateral Agent, the value and location of such Collateral, etc.) as may be requested by the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the forgoing, each Assignor agrees that it shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after its receipt of the respective request) furnish to the Collateral Agent such updated Annexes hereto as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent.

ARTICLE VII

          7.1 Remedies; Obtaining the Collateral Upon Default. Each Assignor agrees that, if a Noticed Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, subject to any mandatory requirements of applicable law then in effect, the Collateral Agent, in addition to any rights now or hereafter existing under applicable law and under the other provisions of this Agreement, shall have all rights as a secured creditor under the UCC in all relevant jurisdictions and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured creditor is entitled under the laws in effect in all relevant jurisdictions and may also:

     (i) personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from such Assignor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon such Assignor’s premises where any of the Collateral is located and remove the same and use in connection with such removal any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of such Assignor;

     (ii) instruct the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation (including, without limitation, the Receivables and the Contracts) constituting the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such instrument or agreement directly to the Collateral Agent and may exercise any and all remedies of such Assignor in respect of such Collateral;

18

     (iii) instruct all banks which have entered into a control agreement with the Collateral Agent to transfer all moneys, securities and instruments held by such depository bank to the Cash Collateral Account and withdraw all moneys, securities and instruments in the Cash Collateral Account for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 7.4 hereof;

     (iv) sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, or direct such Assignor to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with Section 7.2 hereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale or liquidation;

     (v) take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing such Assignor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Assignor shall at its own expense:

     (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent and there delivered to the Collateral Agent,

     (B) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 7.2, and

     (C) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such guards, other security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition;

     (vi) license or sublicense whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any Marks, Patents or Copyrights included in the Collateral for such term and on such conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole judgment determine;

     (vii) apply any moneys constituting Collateral or proceeds thereof in accordance with Section 7.4; and

     (viii) take any other action as specified in clauses (1) through (5), inclusive, of Section 9-607 of the UCC

(it being understood that such Assignor’s obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by such Assignor of said obligation). By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and each other Security Document, the Secured Creditors expressly acknowledge and agree that (x) this Agreement and each other Security Document may be enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or, if the CA Termination Date has occurred, the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of all remaining Obligations, provided that if prior to the CA Termination Date a payment default with respect to at least $300,000,000 principal amount in the aggregate of New Senior Notes and/or Refinancing Senior Notes has continued for at least 180 days (and such defaulted payment has not been

19

received pursuant to a drawing under any letter of credit), the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Indebtedness subject to such payment default or defaults can direct the Collateral Agent to commence and continue enforcement of the Liens created hereunder, which the Collateral Agent shall comply with subject to receiving any indemnity which it reasonably requests, provided further that the Collateral Agent shall thereafter comply only with the directions of the Required Lenders as to carrying out such enforcement so long as such directions are not adverse to the aforesaid directions of the holders of Indebtedness subject to such payment default or defaults, and (y) no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or any other Security Document or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby or thereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies shall be exercised exclusively by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors as their interest may appear upon the terms of this Agreement and the other Security Documents.

          7.2 Remedies; Disposition of the Collateral. Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Noticed Event of Default, any Collateral repossessed by the Collateral Agent under or pursuant to Section 7.1 and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Collateral Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Collateral Agent or after any overhaul or repair which the Collateral Agent shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Any such disposition which shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such requirements shall be made upon not less than ten (10) days’ written notice to the relevant Assignor specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the ten (10) days after the giving of such notice, to the right of the relevant Assignor or any nominee of such Assignor to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified. Any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by such requirements shall be made upon not less than ten (10) days’ written notice to the relevant Assignor specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable requirements of law, shall be by public auction (which may, at the Collateral Agent’s option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction not less than 10 days prior thereto in one newspaper in general circulation in the City of New York and one newspaper in general circulation in Winston Salem, North Carolina. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors (or certain of them) may bid for and become the purchaser (by bidding in the Obligations or otherwise) of the Collateral or any item thereof, offered for sale in accordance with this Section without accountability to the relevant Assignor (except to the extent of surplus money received as provided in Section 7.4). If, under mandatory requirements of applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall be required to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the relevant Assignor as hereinabove specified, the Collateral Agent need give such Assignor only such notice of disposition as shall be reasonably practicable in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law.

20

          7.3 Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE AND JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S TAKING POSSESSION OR THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR REMEDIES AND ANY SUCH RIGHT WHICH SUCH ASSIGNOR WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OR ANY STATUTE OF THE UNITED STATES OR OF ANY STATE, and such Assignor hereby further waives, to the extent permitted by law:

     (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession or any such disposition except any damages which are the direct result of the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct;

     (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder; and

     (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof, and each Assignor, for itself and all who may claim under it, insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws.

Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the relevant Assignor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Assignor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through and under such Assignor.

          7.4 Application of Proceeds. (a) All moneys collected by the Collateral Agent upon any sale, other disposition of or other realization upon any Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the Collateral Agent hereunder (collectively, the “Collateral Proceeds”), shall be applied as follows:

     (i) first, to the payment of all Obligations owing to the Collateral Agent of the type described in clauses (vi), (vii) and (viii) of the definition of “Obligations” contained in Article IX hereof;

     (ii) second, to the extent proceeds of the sale, any disposition of or other realization upon any item of Collateral remain after the application pursuant to preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Applicable Obligations secured by such item of Collateral shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as their interests may appear, with (x) each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Applicable Obligations secured by such item of Collateral or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Applicable Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount so remaining to

21

be distributed and (y) in the case of the Credit Document Obligations, the New Senior Notes Obligations and the Refinancing Senior Notes Obligations included in such Applicable Obligations, any such amount to be applied (1) first to the payment of interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of Loans, New Senior Notes or Refinancing Senior Notes, as the case may be, (2) second to the payment of principal of Loans, New Senior Notes or Refinancing Senior Notes, as the case may be, and (3) third to the other Credit Document Obligations, New Senior Notes Obligations or Refinancing Senior Notes Obligations, as the case may be; and

     (iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), to the relevant Assignor or, to the extent directed by such Assignor or a court of competent jurisdiction, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

          (b) No delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising any of its rights, remedies, powers and privileges hereunder or partial or single exercise thereof, shall constitute a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Assignor shall constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent to any other or further action without notice or demand to the extent such action is permitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent without notice or demand under the terms of this Agreement.

          10.3 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of each Assignor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired by, (a) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Assignor; (b) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of, any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other Secured Debt Agreement, except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof; or (c) any amendment to or modification of any other Credit Document or any other Secured Debt Agreement or any security for any of the Obligations; whether or not any Assignor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.

          10.4 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Assignor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and assigns. All agreements, statements, representations and warranties made by such Assignor herein or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by each Assignor or on its behalf under this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Creditors and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the other Secured Debt Agreements, regardless of any investigation made by the Secured Creditors on their behalf.

          10.5 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

          10.6 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          10.7 Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

          10.8 Assignors’ Duties. It is expressly agreed, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, that each Assignor shall remain liable to perform all of the obligations,

37

if any, assumed by it with respect to the Collateral and the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligations or liabilities with respect to any Collateral by reason of or arising out of this Agreement, except any obligations or liabilities which are the direct result of the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, nor shall the Collateral Agent be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Assignor under or with respect to any Collateral.

          10.9 Termination; Release. (a) After the Termination Date (as defined below), this Agreement shall terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Article VIII hereof shall survive any such termination) and the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of the respective Assignor, will execute and deliver to such Assignor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement as provided above, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Assignor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement, together with any moneys at the time held by the Collateral Agent hereunder. As used in this Agreement, (i) “CA Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Total Commitment has been terminated, no Letter of Credit or Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and all other Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than arising from indemnities for which no request for payment has been made) and (ii) “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which (x) the CA Termination Date shall have occurred and (y) if (but only if) a Notified Non-Credit Agreement Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the CA Termination Date (and after giving effect thereto), either (I) such Notified Non-Credit Agreement Event of Default shall have been cured or waived by the requisite holders of the relevant Obligations subject to such Notified Non-Credit Agreement Event of Default or (II) all Secured Credit Card Agreements and Secured Hedging Agreements (if any) giving rise to a Notified Non-Credit Agreement Event of Default shall have been terminated and all Obligations subject to such Notified Non-Credit Agreement Event of Default shall have been paid in full (other than arising from indemnities for which no request for payment has been made).

          (b) So long as no Notified Non-Credit Agreement Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the event that (x) prior to the CA Termination Date, (i) any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of in connection with a sale or other disposition permitted by Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement (it being agreed for such purposes that a release will be deemed “permitted by Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement” if the proposed transaction constitutes an exception to Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement) or (ii) all or any part of the Collateral is released at the direction of the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 12.12 of the Credit Agreement), and the proceeds of such sale or disposition or from such release (if any) are applied in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement to the extent required to be so applied or (y) on and after the CA Termination Date, any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of without violating the New Senior Notes Documents, the Refinancing Senior Notes Documents, the Secured Credit Card Agreements and the Secured Hedging Agreements, the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of the respective Assignor will release such Collateral from this Agreement, duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Assignor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or released and as may be in possession of the Collateral

38

Agent and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that upon the release of all or any portion of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent at the direction of the Lenders as provided above, the Lien on the Collateral in favor of the Credit Card Issuers, the Hedging Creditors, the New Senior Notes Creditors and the Refinancing Senior Notes Creditors shall automatically be released).

          (c) In addition to the foregoing, all Collateral shall be automatically released (subject to reinstatement upon the occurrence of a new Trigger Event) in accordance with Section 7.10(i) of the Credit Agreement.

          (d) At any time that the relevant Assignor desires that the Collateral Agent take any action to give effect to any release of Collateral pursuant to the foregoing Section 10.9(a), (b) or (c), it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate signed by an authorized officer describing the Collateral to be released and certifying its entitlement to a release pursuant to the applicable provisions of Sections 10.9(a), (b) or (c) and in such case the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of such Assignor, will execute such documents as required to duly release such Collateral and to assign, transfer and deliver to such Assignor or its designee (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being released and as may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any Secured Creditor as the result of any release of Collateral by it as permitted by (or which the Collateral Agent in good faith believes to be permitted by) this Section 10.9. Upon any release of Collateral pursuant to Section 10.9(a), (b) or (c), so long as no Noticed Event of Default is then in existence, none of the Secured Creditors shall have any continuing right or interest in such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof (subject to reinstatement rights upon the occurrence of a new Trigger Event in the case of a release pursuant to Section 10.9(c)).

          10.10 Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. By accepting the benefits of this Agreement, each Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Collateral Agent as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and Annex M hereto. The Collateral Agent shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement and in Annex M hereto, the terms of which shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference as fully as if the same were set forth herein in their entirety. In the event that any provision set forth in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement in respect of the Collateral Agent conflicts with any provision set forth in Annex M hereto, the provisions of Annex M hereto shall govern (except that the Lenders shall remain obligated to indemnify the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 11 of the Credit Agreement, to the extent the Collateral Agent is not indemnified by Secured Creditors pursuant to Annex M). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.2 of this Agreement, this Section 10.10, and the duties and obligations of the Collateral Agent set forth in this Section 10.10, may not be amended or modified without the consent of the Collateral Agent.

          10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the

39

same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Collateral Agent.

          10.12 Additional Assignors. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to become a party to this Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the requirements of the Credit Agreement shall become an Assignor hereunder by (x) executing a counterpart hereof and/or an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, (y) delivering supplements to Annexes A through F hereto and Annexes I, J and K hereto, as are necessary to cause such Annexes to be complete and accurate with respect to such additional Assignor on such date and (z) taking all actions as specified in this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, in each case with all documents required above to be delivered to the Collateral Agent and with all documents and action required above to be taken to the reasonable satisfaction of the Collateral Agent.

          10.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is entered into solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and for the benefit of the Secured Creditors from time to time and their respective successors and assigns and, except for the Secured Creditors and their successors and assigns, there shall be no third party beneficiaries hereof, nor shall any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and the Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns, be entitled to enforce the provisions hereof or have any claims against any party hereto (or any Secured Creditor) or their successors and assigns arising from, or under, this Agreement.

          10.14 Amendment and Restatement. Each of the Collateral Agent and each of the Assignors hereby acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, this Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the Second Amended and Restated Security Agreement in its entirety.
