In addition to the rights of the Note Collateral Agent specified in subsection 6.1 with respect to payments of Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, and the Note Collateral Agent shall have instructed any Grantor to do so, all Proceeds of Security Collateral received by such Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other Cash Equivalent items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Note Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereto, the ABL Agent and the other ABL Secured Parties, the Term Agent and the Term Secured Parties, any Additional Agent and the other applicable Additional Secured Parties, the Second Lien Note Agent and the Second Lien Noteholder Secured Parties or the applicable Collateral Representative, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Note Collateral Agent, or the applicable Collateral Representative, ABL Agent, Term Agent, or any Additional Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement (or their respective agents appointed for purposes of perfection), in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Note Collateral Agent, or the applicable Collateral Representative, ABL Agent, Term Agent, or any Additional Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, if required). All Proceeds of Security Collateral received by the Note Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Note Collateral Agent in the relevant Collateral Proceeds Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds of Security Collateral while held by the Note Collateral Agent in such Collateral Proceeds Account (or by the relevant Grantor in trust for the Note Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations of such Grantor and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in subsection 6.5.

6.5 Application of Proceeds. It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any and all Proceeds of the relevant Granting Party’s Collateral (as defined in the Indenture) received by the Note Collateral Agent (whether from the relevant Granting Party or otherwise) shall be held by the Note Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party (whether matured or unmatured), and/or then or at any time thereafter may, in the sole discretion of the Note Collateral Agent, be applied by the Note Collateral Agent against the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party then due and owing in the following order of priority, subject to each applicable Intercreditor Agreement:

First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 707 of the Indenture;

-31-

Second: To the payment of all amounts due the Note Collateral Agent under Section 1510 of the Indenture;

Third: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the other Obligations of such Grantor ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Obligations; provided that any such application of Proceeds shall be made on a pro rata basis as between and among (i) the Holders and their respective successors and assigns and their permitted transferees and endorsees and (ii) the Non-Indenture Secured Parties; and

Fourth: to such Grantor.

6.6 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Note Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations to the extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Note Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Granting Party or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances, forthwith (subject to the terms of any documentation governing any Special Purpose Financing, and subject to each applicable Intercreditor Agreement) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Security Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith, subject to any existing reserved rights or licenses, sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Security Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall have the right, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Security Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in such Granting Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Granting Party further agrees, at the Note Collateral Agent’s request (subject to the terms of any documentation governing any Special Purpose Financing), to assemble the Security Collateral and make it available to the Note Collateral Agent at places which the Note Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Granting Party’s premises or elsewhere. The Note Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this subsection 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Security Collateral or in any way relating to the Security Collateral or the rights of the Note Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party then due and owing, in the order of priority specified in subsection 6.5 above, and only after such application and after the payment by the Note Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Code, need the Note Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to such Granting Party. To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) such Granting Party waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Security Collateral, other than

-32-

any such claims, damages and demands that may arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Note Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party, and (ii) if any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Security Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Registration Rights.

(a) If the Note Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to subsection 6.6, and if in the reasonable opinion of the Note Collateral Agent it is necessary or reasonably advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Pledgor will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Equity Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the directors and officers of such Equity Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the reasonable opinion of the Note Collateral Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of not more than one year from the date of the first public offering of such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the Note Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Equity Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all states and the District of Columbia that the Note Collateral Agent shall reasonably designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

(b) Such Pledgor recognizes that the Note Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all such Pledged Stock, 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. Such Pledgor 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, to the extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Note Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Equity Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Equity Issuer would agree to do so.

(c) Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of such Pledged Stock pursuant to this subsection 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Such Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this subsection 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Note Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, that the Note Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this subsection 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing under the Indenture.

-33-

6.8 Waiver; Deficiency. Each Granting Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Security Collateral are insufficient to pay in full, the Notes and, to the extent then due and owing, all other Obligations of such Granting Party and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 7 THE NOTE COLLATERAL AGENT

7.1 Note Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Granting Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Note Collateral Agent and any authorized officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Granting Party and in the name of such Granting Party or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable law, provided that the Note Collateral Agent agrees not to exercise such power except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and in accordance with and subject to each applicable Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law) and subject to each applicable Intercreditor Agreement, (x) each Pledgor hereby gives the Note Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Pledgor, without notice or assent by such Pledgor, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in subsection 6.6 or 6.7, any indorsements, assessments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such Pledgor’s Pledged Collateral, and (y) each Grantor hereby gives the Note Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) subject to the terms of any documentation governing any Special Purpose Financing, in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Account Receivable of such Grantor that constitutes Collateral or with respect to any other Security Collateral of such Grantor and file any claim or take any other action or institute any proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Note Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Account Receivable of such Grantor that constitutes Collateral or with respect to any other Collateral of such Grantor whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Copyright, Patent, or Trademark constituting Collateral of such Grantor, execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Note Collateral Agent may reasonably request to such Grantor to evidence the Note Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Copyright, Patent, or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens, other than Liens permitted under this Agreement or the other Note Documents, levied or placed on the Security Collateral of such Grantor, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof; and

-34-

(iv) subject to the terms of any documentation governing any Special Purpose Financing, (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Security Collateral of such Grantor to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Note Collateral Agent or as the Note Collateral Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Security Collateral of such Grantor; (C) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Security Collateral of such Grantor; (D) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Security Collateral of such Grantor or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Security Collateral of such Grantor; (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor; (F) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Note Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (G) subject to any existing reserved rights or licenses, assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark constituting Collateral of such Grantor (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Note Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (H) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Security Collateral of such Grantor as fully and completely as though the Note Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Note Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Note Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Security Collateral of such Grantor and the Note Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

(b) The reasonable expenses of the Note Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this subsection 7.1 shall be payable by such Granting Party to the Note Collateral Agent on demand in accordance with the Indenture.

(c) Each Granting Party hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable as to the relevant Granting Party until this Agreement is terminated as to such Granting Party, and the security interests in the Security Collateral of such Granting Party created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Note Collateral Agent. The Note Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Security Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Note Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. None of the Note Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Security Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Security Collateral upon the request of any Granting Party or any other Person or, except as otherwise provided herein, to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Security Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Note Collateral

-35-

Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Note Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Security Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Note Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Granting Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein or for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

7.3 Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Granting Party authorizes the Note Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to such Granting Party’s Security Collateral without the signature of such Granting Party in such form and in such filing offices as the Note Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Note Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Granting Party authorizes the Note Collateral Agent to use any collateral description reasonably determined by the Note Collateral Agent, including the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets” in any such financing statements. The Note Collateral Agent agrees to notify the relevant Granting Party of any financing or continuation statement filed by it; provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of any such filing.

7.4 Authority of Note Collateral Agent. Each Granting Party acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Note Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Note Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Note Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement or any amendment, supplement or other modification of this Agreement shall, as between the Note Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Indenture and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Note Collateral Agent and the Granting Parties the Note Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Granting Party shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. The Note Collateral Agent shall have the benefit of the rights, privileges and immunities contained in Section 1509 of the Indenture.

7.5 Note Collateral Agent as Bailee for the Grantors. In the event that at any time, any Capital Stock or Intercompany Notes owned by any Grantor and held by the Note Collateral Agent constitute Excluded Assets or Excluded Subsidiary Securities (including any such Capital Stock or Intercompany Notes constituting Pledged Securities at the time of delivery to the Note Collateral Agent that later become Excluded Assets or Excluded Subsidiary Securities), and for so long as they constitute Excluded Assets or Excluded Subsidiary Securities, any such Capital Stock or Intercompany Notes in the possession of the Note Collateral Agent, shall be held by the Note Collateral Agent solely as bailee and in trust for the applicable Grantor and such Pledged Securities will not be subject to subsections 3.1 and 3.2 or any Lien or security interest created pursuant thereto. The Note Collateral Agent, at the request of the applicable Grantor, shall promptly return to such Grantor any Capital Stock or Intercompany Notes held by the Note Collateral Agent constituting Excluded Assets or Excluded Subsidiary Securities.

(a) The Non-Indenture Secured Parties shall not have any right whatsoever to do any of the following: (i) exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral (such term, as used in this Section 8, having the meaning assigned to it in the Indenture), or to direct the Note Collateral Agent to do the same, including, without limitation, the right to (A) enforce any Liens or sell or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral, (B) request any action, institute any proceedings, exercise any voting rights, give any instructions, make any election, notify account debtors or make collections with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral or (C) release any Grantor under this Agreement or release any Collateral from the Liens of any Note Security Document or consent to or otherwise approve any such release; (ii) demand, accept or obtain any Lien on any Collateral (except for Liens arising under, and subject to the terms of, the Note Security Documents); (iii) vote in any Bankruptcy Case or similar proceeding in respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (any such proceeding, for purposes of this clause (a), a “Bankruptcy”) with respect to, or take any other actions concerning the Collateral; (iv) receive any proceeds from any sale, transfer or other disposition of any of the Collateral (except in accordance with the Note Security Documents); (v) oppose any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral; (vi) object to any debtor-in-possession financing in any Bankruptcy which is provided by one or more Holders among others (including on a priming basis under Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code); (vii) object to the use of cash collateral in respect of the Collateral in any Bankruptcy; or (viii) seek, or object to any Indenture Secured Party seeking on an equal and ratable basis, any adequate protection or relief from the automatic stay with respect to the Collateral in any Bankruptcy.

Such exercise and enforcement shall include, without limitation, the rights to collect, sell, dispose of or otherwise realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, to incur expenses in connection with such collection, sale, disposition or other realization and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction. The Non-Indenture Secured Parties by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Note Security Documents hereby agree not to contest or otherwise challenge any such collection, sale, disposition or other realization of or upon all or any of the Collateral. Whether or not a Bankruptcy Case has been commenced, the Non-Indenture Secured Parties shall be deemed to have consented to any sale or other disposition of any property, business or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the release of any or all of the Collateral from the Liens of any Note Security Document in connection therewith.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this subsection 8.1, the Non-Indenture Secured Parties shall be entitled, subject to each applicable Intercreditor Agreement, to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleadings (A) in order to prevent any Person from seeking to foreclose on the Collateral or supersede the Non-Indenture Secured Parties’ claim thereto or (B) in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Non-Indenture Secured Parties. Each Non-Indenture Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, agrees to be bound by and to comply with each applicable Intercreditor Agreement and authorizes the Note Collateral Agent to enter into each Intercreditor Agreement on its behalf.

-37-

(d) Each Non-Indenture Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, agrees that the Note Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the Holders may deal with the Collateral, including any exchange, taking or release of Collateral, may change or increase the amount of the Company Obligations and/or the Grantor Obligations, and may release any Grantor from its Obligations hereunder, all without any liability or obligation (except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein) to the Non-Indenture Secured Parties. The Note Collateral Agent shall not be required to provide any notice of any event that the Note Collateral Agent may be aware of, or any action taken by the Note Collateral Agent, to any Non-Indenture Secured Party.

8.2 Appointment of Agent. Each Non-Indenture Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Note Security Documents, shall be deemed irrevocably to make, constitute and appoint the Note Collateral Agent, as agent under the Indenture (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Note Collateral Agent) as such Person’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, and in such capacity, the Note Collateral Agent shall have the right, with power of substitution for the Non-Indenture Secured Parties and in each such Person’s name or otherwise, to effectuate any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral. It is understood and agreed that the appointment of the Note Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Non-Indenture Secured Parties for the purposes set forth herein is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

8.3 Waiver of Claims. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Non-Indenture Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the Note Collateral Agent, the Trustee or the Holders with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the Note Collateral Agent, the Trustee or the Holders or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Note Documents or any transaction relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any such exercise described in subsection 8.1(b) above), except for any such action or failure to act which constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person. None of the Note Collateral Agent, the Trustee or any Holder or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Company any Subsidiary of the Company, any Non-Indenture Secured Party or any other Person or to take any other action or forbear from doing so whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof, except for any such action or failure to act which constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person. The Note Collateral Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties of any kind or nature to the Non-Indenture Secured Parties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing.

8.4 Designation of Non-Indenture Secured Parties. The Company may from time to time designate a Person as a “Note Bank Products Provider”, a “Note Hedging Provider” or a “Management Credit Provider” hereunder by delivering to the Note Collateral Agent a Non-Indenture Secured Party Designation (in substantially the form attached as Annex 4 hereto) executed by the Company and such Note Bank Products Provider, Note Hedging Provider or Management Credit Provider.

SECTION 9 MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each

-38-

affected Granting Party and the Note Collateral Agent, subject to Article IX of the Indenture. In addition, if separately agreed in writing between the Company and any Non-Indenture Secured Party (and such Non-Indenture Secured Party has been designated in writing by the Company to the Note Collateral Agent for purposes of this sentence, for so long as so designated), no such amendment, modification or waiver shall amend, modify or waive subsection 6.5 (or the definition of “Non-Indenture Secured Party” or “Secured Party” to the extent relating thereto) if such amendment, modification or waiver would directly and adversely affect such Non-Indenture Secured Party without the written consent of such Non-Indenture Secured Party. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any amendment, amendment and restatement, waiver, supplement or other modification of or to any Intercreditor Agreement that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, through any reference herein to any Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise, of waiving, amending, supplementing or otherwise modifying this Agreement, or any term or provision hereof, or any right or obligation of any Granting Party hereunder or in respect hereof, shall not be given such effect except pursuant to a written instrument executed by each affected Granting Party and the Note Collateral Agent in accordance with this subsection 9.1.

9.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. None of the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to subsection 9.1 hereof or Article IX of the Indenture), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Note Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Note Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

Additional Rights and Remedies of the Mortgagee

5.1 Rights Upon an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee, immediately and without additional notice and without liability therefor to the Mortgagor, except for gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or unlawful conduct, may do or cause to be done any or all of the following to the extent permitted by applicable law, and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement: (a) enter the Premises and take exclusive possession thereof; (b) invoke any legal remedies to dispossess the Mortgagor if the Mortgagor remains in possession of the Premises without the Mortgagee’s prior written consent; (c) hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Premises upon such terms and conditions as the Mortgagee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as the Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable), and apply all rents and other amounts collected by the Mortgagee in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions hereof; (d) institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of the Mortgage, either by judicial action or by power of sale, in which case the Premises may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels; and (e) exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under the Indenture, the other Note Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity. At any foreclosure sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings, power of sale,

Annex 5-6

or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Mortgagor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the Mortgagor, and against all other Persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under the Mortgagor. The Mortgagee or any of the Secured Parties may be a purchaser at such sale and if Mortgagee is the highest bidder, Mortgagee shall credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to Mortgagee against the indebtedness in lieu of paying cash. In the event this Mortgage is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement of the Premises is waived to the extent permitted by applicable law. With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC to the extent applicable, the Mortgagor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable.

5.2 Appointment of Receiver. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Mortgagee shall be entitled, without additional notice and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Obligations secured hereby, whether the same shall then be occupied as a homestead or not, or the solvency of any party bound for its payment, to make application for the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and to operate the Premises, and to collect the rents, issues, profits, and income thereof, all expenses of which shall be added to the Obligations and secured hereby. The receiver shall have all the rights and powers provided for under the laws of the state in which the Premises are located, including without limitation, the power to execute leases, and the power to collect the rents, sales proceeds, issues, profits and proceeds of the Premises during the pendency of such foreclosure suit, as well as during any further times when the Mortgagor, its successors or assigns, except for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents, sales proceeds, issues, proceeds and profits, and all other powers which may be necessary or are usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Premises during the whole of said period. Receiver’s fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the appointment of a receiver pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be secured by this Mortgage. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver, trustee or other custodian, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to retain possession and control of any cash or other instruments at the time held by or payable or deliverable under the terms of the Mortgage to the Mortgagee to the fullest extent permitted by law.

5.3 Waivers. No waiver of a prior Event of Default shall operate to waive any subsequent Event(s) of Default. All remedies provided in this Mortgage, the First Lien Notes, the Indenture or any of the other Note Documents are cumulative and may, at the election of the Mortgagee, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any manner and are in addition to any other rights provided by law.

5.4 Delivery of Possession After Foreclosure. In the event there is a foreclosure sale hereunder and at the time of such sale, the Mortgagor or the Mortgagor’s successors or assigns are occupying or using the Premises, or any part thereof, each and all immediately shall become the tenant of the purchaser at such sale, which tenancy shall be a tenancy from day to day, terminable at the will of either landlord or tenant, at a reasonable rental per day based upon the value of the property occupied, such rental to be due daily to the purchaser; and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the purchaser at such sale, notwithstanding any language herein apparently to the contrary, shall have the sole option to demand possession immediately following the sale or to permit the occupants to remain as tenants at will. In the event the tenant fails to surrender possession of said property upon demand, the purchaser shall be entitled to institute and maintain a summary action for possession of the property (such as an action for forcible detainer) in any court having jurisdiction.

Annex 5-7

5.5 Marshalling. The Mortgagor hereby waives, in the event of foreclosure of this Mortgage or the enforcement by the Mortgagee of any other rights and remedies hereunder, any right otherwise available in respect to marshalling of assets which secure any First Lien Notes and any other indebtedness secured hereby or to require the Mortgagee to pursue its remedies against any other such assets.

5.6 Protection of Premises. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee may take such actions, including, but not limited to disbursements of such sums, as the Mortgagee in its sole but reasonable discretion deems necessary to protect the Mortgagee’s interest in the Premises.
