(c) any Governmental Authority becoming party to any Material Contract, which notice shall be delivered not more than 15 days from such occurrence thereof.

4.8. Investment Property.

option or rights in respect of the Equity Interests (including any Pledged Equity Interest) of any Issuer that is a Subsidiary, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of or other ownership interests in the Pledged Securities, or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of the Secured Parties, hold the same in trust for the Secured Parties and deliver the same forthwith to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if the Collateral Agent so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by the Collateral Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for the Secured Obligations.

In addition, each Grantor which is either an Issuer or an owner of any Pledged Security hereby consents to the grant by each other Grantor of the security interest hereunder in favor of the Collateral Agent and to the transfer of any Pledged Security to the Collateral Agent or its nominee following an Event of Default and to the substitution of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a partner, member or shareholder of the related Issuer.

4.9. Accounts. (a) Other than in the ordinary course of business, and consistent with its current practices and in accordance with prudent and standard practices used in the industry in which such Grantor is engaged, and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Grantor will not (i) grant any extension of the time of payment of any Receivable, (ii) compromise or settle any Receivable for less than the full amount thereof, (iii) release, wholly or partially, any Person liable for the payment of any Receivable, (iv) allow any credit or discount whatsoever on any Receivable or (v) amend, supplement or modify any Receivable in any manner that could adversely affect the value thereof, in each case, if any such Accounts individually have a value in excess of $1,000,000.

(b) Such Grantor will deliver prompt notice to the Collateral Agent a copy of any legal claim filed against it with respect to the validity or enforceability of more than 5% of the aggregate amount of the then outstanding Accounts.

4.10. [Reserved].

4.11. Intellectual Property. (a) Except where the failure to take such action could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will (i) continue to use each material Trademark owned by such Grantor on each and every trademark class of goods applicable to its current line as reflected in its current catalogs, brochures and price lists in order to maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain as in the past the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark and take all necessary steps to ensure that all licensed users of such Trademark maintain as in the past such quality, (iii) use such Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable Requirements of Law, (iv) not adopt or use any xxxx which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark unless the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, shall obtain a perfected security interest in such xxxx pursuant to this Agreement and the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, and (v) not (and not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such Trademark may become invalidated or impaired in any way.

(c) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act that infringes, misappropriates or violates the Intellectual Property-rights of any other Person, except, where any such infringement, misappropriation or violation could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will use proper statutory notice in connection with the use of each material Patent, Trademark and Copyright owned by such Grantor, except where the failure to use such notice could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Such Grantor will notify the Secured Parties immediately if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including, without limitation, the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s registration or ownership of, or the validity or enforceability of, any such Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same.

(f) Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report all such filings to the Collateral Agent annually (and, in any event within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of Holdings). Upon request of the Collateral Agent upon the direction of the Authorized Representative or Authorized Representatives representing the Required Secured Parties, such Grantor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Collateral Agent may so request to evidence the Secured Parties’ security interest in any Copyright, Patent, Trademark or other Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(g) Except where the failure to take such action could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, such Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps, including, without limitation, in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar

office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and each registration of material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, including, without limitation, the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of responses to office actions issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, the filing of applications for renewal or extension, the filing of affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability, and the participation in interference, reexamination, opposition, cancellation, infringement and misappropriation proceedings.

(h) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, discontinue use of, cancel, or otherwise abandon any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, or abandon any application or any right to file an application for any Patent, Trademark, or Copyright, unless such Grantor shall have previously determined that such use or the maintenance of such Intellectual Property is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business and that the loss thereof could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and, in such case, such Grantor shall give prompt written notice of any such abandonment to the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith.

(i) In the event that any material Intellectual Property owned by any Grantor is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall (i) take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such Intellectual Property is of material economic value, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing after it learns thereof and, in its reasonable business judgment, xxx for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, except where such infringement, misappropriation or dilution could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect,.

(j) Such Grantor agrees that, should it create, develop, or otherwise acquire or obtain an ownership interest in any item of material Intellectual Property which is not now a part of the Collateral (the “After-Acquired Intellectual Property”), (i) the provisions of Section 2 shall automatically apply thereto, (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property, and in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill of the business connected therewith or symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the Collateral, and (iii) it shall provide the Collateral Agent annually (and, in any event within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of Holdings) with an amended Schedule 6 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time ) hereto and take the actions specified in 4.11(l).

(k) Such Grantor agrees to execute short form security agreements with respect to Intellectual Property owned or held by such Grantor and with respect to any After-Acquired Intellectual Property in substantially the form of Exhibits B and C in order to record the security interest granted herein to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, and any other applicable Governmental Authority.

(l) Such Grantor shall take all steps reasonably necessary consistent with industry standards to protect the confidentiality of all Trade Secrets used or held in its business,

including, without limitation, entering into confidentiality agreements with employees and labeling and restricting access to confidential and proprietary information and documents.

SECTION 5. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

5.1. Certain Matters Relating to Accounts. (a) [Reserved].

(a) The Collateral Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Accounts and each Grantor hereby agrees to continue to collect all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor under the Accounts and any Supporting Obligation and diligently exercise each material right it may have under any Receivable and any Supporting Obligation, in each case, at its own expense; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If required by the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Accounts, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Collateral Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in Section 5.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Accounts shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

(b) [Reserved].

5.2. Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) The Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with obligors under any Receivable with a value in excess of $1,000,000, and parties to the Contracts to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any such Accounts or such Contracts.

(a) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may upon written notice to the applicable Grantor, notify, or require any Grantor to notify, the Account Debtor or counterparty to make all payments under the Accounts and/or Contracts directly to the Collateral Agent;

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Accounts and Contracts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto.

5.3. Pledged Securities. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 5.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Equity Interests and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, in each case paid in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuer and consistent with past practice, to the extent permitted in the Indenture Documents and any Additional Secured Debt Documents, and to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to the Pledged Securities; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other ownership right exercised or other action taken which would materially impair the Collateral or which would result in any violation of any provision of this Agreement, any other Indenture Documents or any Additional Secured Debt Documents.

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing: (i) all rights of each Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right, but shall be under no obligation, to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall have the right, without notice to any Grantor, to transfer all or any portion of the Investment Property to its name or the name of its nominee or agent. In addition, the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time, without notice to any Grantor, to exchange any certificates or instruments representing any Investment Property for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. 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 and each Grantor acknowledges that the Collateral Agent may utilize the power of attorney set forth herein.

(b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Securities directly to the Collateral Agent.

5.4. Proceeds to be Turned Over To Collateral Agent. (a) In addition to the rights of the Secured Parties specified in Section 5.1 with respect to payments of Accounts, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, Cash Equivalents, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 5.5.

(b) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, the Company and any Guarantor shall immediately take all actions necessary or desirable to enable the Collateral Agent to obtain “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) with respect to any Investment Property, Deposit Accounts and any other relevant Collateral, including without limitation, executing and delivering and causing the relevant depositary bank or securities intermediary to execute and deliver a control agreement in a form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion.

5.5. Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Collateral Agent’s election, the Collateral Agent shall apply all or any part of the net Proceeds (after deducting fees and expenses as provided in Section 5.6) constituting Collateral realized through the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies hereunder, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in the Indenture and any Additional Secured Debt Document, in payment of the Secured Obligations in such order of application as is required by the Collateral Agency Agreement.

5.6. Code and Other Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may take all such actions and exercise all such rights and remedies set forth in this clause (a). The 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 Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC (whether or not the New York UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or its rights under any other applicable law or in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the 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 Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith Dispose of or give option or options to purchase and deliver the 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 any 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. Each Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the

extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each purchaser at any such sale 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 applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely effect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent to Dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree (it being understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may bid at a private sale only if permitted by Section 9-610(c)(2) of the New York UCC and Grantor reserves the right to object to commercial reasonableness of any private sale if buyer at such private sale is the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party). Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 5.6, 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 Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations as set forth in Section 5.5 and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a) of the New York UCC, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. If the Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by the Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and the Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law,

each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against any Secured Party arising out of the exercise by any of them of any rights hereunder.

(b) In the event of any Disposition of any of the Intellectual Property, the goodwill of the business connected with and symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such Disposition shall be included, and the applicable Grantor shall supply the Collateral Agent or its designee with such Grantor’s know-how and expertise, and with documents and things embodying the same, relating to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products or the provision of services relating to any Intellectual Property subject to such Disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and documents relating to such Intellectual Property and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of such products and services.

5.7. Registration Rights. (a) If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities pursuant to Section 5.6, and the Required Secured Parties direct the Collateral Agent to have the Pledged Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Grantor will cause the Issuer thereof (if such Issuer is a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Holdings or the Issuer) to (i) execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to register the Pledged Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of the Pledged Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which are necessary, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all jurisdictions as required by the sale to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities, 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 Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof (is such Issuer is a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Holdings or the Issuer) 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.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its 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 the Pledged Equity Interests or the Pledged Debt Securities pursuant to this Section 5.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 5.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Parties, that 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 Section 5.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor 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 and is continuing under the Indenture or any Additional Secured Debt Document, as applicable, or a defense of payment.

5.8. Waiver; 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 Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by any Secured Party to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor hereby expressly waives and covenants not to assert any appraisement, valuation, extension, redemption or similar laws, now or at any time hereafter in force, which delay, prevent or otherwise impede the performance or enforcement of this Agreement.

5.9. FCC Licenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Indenture Documents, any Additional Secured Debt Document or in any other agreement, instrument or document executed by any Grantor in connection with the Indenture Documents or any Additional Secured Debt Document, to the extent that any FCC license is included in the Collateral, the Collateral Agent will not take any action pursuant to any document referred to above which would constitute or result in any assignment of any FCC license or any change of control (whether de jure or de facto) of any Grantor or subsidiary of any Grantor if such assignment of any FCC license or change of control would require, under then existing law, the prior approval of the FCC without first obtaining such prior approval of the FCC. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Grantor agrees to take any action that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to obtain from the FCC such approval as may be necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Collateral Agent by this Agreement and the other documents referred to above, including specifically, at the cost and expense of each Grantor, the use of its best efforts to assist in obtaining approval of the FCC for any action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement for which such approval is or shall be required by law, and specifically, without limitation, upon request, to prepare, sign and file with the FCC the assignor’s or transferor’s portion of any application or applications for consent to the assignment of license or transfer of control necessary or appropriate under the FCC’s rules and regulations for approval of (i) any sale or other disposition of the Collateral by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent, or (ii) any assumption by the Collateral Agent of voting rights in the Collateral effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that all foreclosure and related actions will be made in accordance with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended from time to time, and other applicable FCC regulations and published policies and decisions.

5.10. Voting.

(a) The provisions of this Section 5.10 shall apply solely after incurrence of the Additional Secured Obligations. The provisions of the Indenture shall apply prior to the incurrence of any such Additional Secured Obligations.

(b) The Required Secured Parties shall have the right to direct the Collateral Agent, following the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, to foreclose on, or exercise its other rights with respect to, the Collateral (or exercise other remedies with respect to the Collateral). For the purposes of determining the Required Secured Parties and their directions in accordance with this Section, each Secured Party or its Authorized Representative shall provide to the Collateral Agent certificates, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, setting forth the respective amounts of outstanding principal obligations owing to such Secured Parties and their direction or vote and the Collateral Agent shall be fully entitled to rely on such certificates.

(c) Any action taken or not taken without the vote of any Secured Party or Secured Parties under this Section 5.10 shall nevertheless be binding on such Secured Party or Secured Parties.

(d) Except as provided in the succeeding sentence or in Section 6, in the case of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Collateral Agent will only be permitted, subject to applicable law, to exercise remedies and sell the Collateral under this Agreement at the direction of the Required Secured Parties. If the Collateral Agent has asked the Secured Parties for instruction and the applicable Secured Parties have not yet responded to such request, the Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take, but shall not be required to take, and shall in no event have any liability for the taking, any delay in taking or the failure to take, such actions with regard to a Default or Event of Default which is continuing which the Collateral Agent, in good faith, believes to be reasonably required to promote and protect the interests of the Secured Parties and to preserve the value of the Collateral and shall give the Secured Parties appropriate notice of such action; provided that once instructions with respect to such request have been received by the Collateral Agent from the applicable Secured Parties, the actions of the Collateral Agent shall be governed thereby and the Collateral Agent shall not take any further action which would be contrary thereto.

SECTION 6. THE COLLATERAL AGENT

6.1. Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any 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 Grantor and in the name of such Grantor 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 which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the 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) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may request to evidence the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, 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;

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 5.6 or 5.7, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and 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 Collateral; (3) sign and endorse 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 Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 6.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that, except as provided in Section 6.1(b), it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 6.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement; provided, however, that unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or time is of the essence, the Collateral Agent shall not exercise this power without first making demand on the Grantor and the Grantor failing to promptly comply therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may not take any of the actions set forth in Sections 5.2(a) and (b) except in compliance with those sections.

(c) The expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 6.1, together with interest, from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall promptly be paid by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys 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 until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

6.2. Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Collateral Agent, nor any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates 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 any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon any Secured Party to exercise any such powers (it being understood and agreed that the Secured Parties will have the obligations of a secured party under the New York UCC). The 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, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except to the extent that any such act or failure to act is found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of a duty owed to such Grantor.

6.3. No Duty of the Collateral Agent. The powers conferred on Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the interests of Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of

the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Collateral Agent to exercise any such powers. Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No provision of this Agreement shall require Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

6.4. Execution of Financing Statements. Each Grantor acknowledges that pursuant to Section 9-509(b) of the New York UCC and any other applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral in such form and in such offices as the Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor agrees that such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described in the Security Documents or as “all assets” or “all personal property” of the undersigned, whether now owned or hereafter existing or acquired by the undersigned or such other description as the Collateral Agent, in its sole judgment, determines is necessary or advisable; provided that such financing statements shall exclude any FCC licenses. A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no obligation to (except at the direction of the Authorized Representative or Authorized Representatives representing the Required Secured Parties), file or record financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, or any other filing or recording document or instrument with respect to the Collateral to perfect or maintain the perfection of the security interests in the Collateral granted under this Agreement.

6.5. Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the 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 shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Collateral Agency Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the 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 Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

6.6. Appointment of Co-Collateral Agents. At any time or from time to time, in order to comply with any Requirement of Law, the Collateral Agent may appoint another bank or trust company or one of more other persons, either to act as co-agent or, with the consent of Holdings and the Company, as agents on behalf of the Secured Parties with such power and authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and which may be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of the Collateral

Agent, include provisions for indemnification and similar protections of such co-agent or separate agent).

SECTION 7. MISCELLANEOUS

7.1. 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 affected Grantor, the Collateral Agent and the Required Secured Parties in accordance with the Collateral Agency Agreement and (ii) the Company may amend any Schedule referred to herein after the date hereof to reflect any change in facts after the date hereof if necessary in connection with the making of any representation set forth herein, provided the Company delivers such revised Schedule to the Collateral Agent and any applicable Authorized Representative promptly following such revision.

7.2. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Collateral Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 12.01 of the Indenture; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Grantor shall be addressed to such Grantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time).

7.3. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. No Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 7.1), 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 any 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 any 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 such 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.

7.4. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Grantor agrees to pay or reimburse each Secured Party for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Grantor under the guarantee pursuant to the Indenture or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Indenture Documents to which such Grantor is a party, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel to each Secured Party.

This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their successors and assigns; provided that, except in connection with the Sirius Merger, no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and any such assignment, transfer or delegation without such consent shall be null and void.

7.6. Set-Off. Subject to the requirements of the Collateral Agency Agreement, each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes each Secured Party at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to such Grantor or any other Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Secured Party may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Grantor to such Secured Party hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Secured Party against such Grantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Indenture, any other Indenture Document, any Additional Debt Document or otherwise, as such Secured Party may elect, whether or not any Secured Party has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. Each Secured Party shall notify such Grantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by such Secured Party of the proceeds thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Secured Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which such Secured Party may have.

7.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other jurisdiction; and

On or after the date hereof and from time to time, upon the compliance by any Additional Secured Debtholder with the terms of Section 6.18 of the Collateral Agency Agreement, the Additional Secured Obligations of such Additional Secured Debtholder shall be deemed to be Additional Secured Obligations hereunder. Each Authorized Representative agrees that upon the satisfaction of the provisions of such Section 6.18 of the Collateral Agency Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall act as agent under and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Collateral Agency Agreement for the benefit of all Secured Parties, including any Additional Secured Debtholders that hold any such Additional Secured Obligations, and each Authorized Representative agrees to the appointment, and acceptance of the appointment, of the Collateral Agent as agent for the holders of such Additional Secured Obligations as set forth in the Additional Secured Debt Notice and Joinder Agreement, and the Authorized Representative providing such Additional Secured Debt Notice and Joinder Agreement shall, on behalf of itself and each Additional Secured Debtholder it represents, be bound by this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, all Obligations arising under or in connection with the Notes (including Additional Notes) constitute Note Obligations rather than Additional Secured Obligations; however upon the issuance of Additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate signed by the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the particulars of the Additional Notes including the aggregate principal amount or face amount thereof and certifying that such issuance of Additional Notes complies with the terms of the Indenture.

Representatives representing the Required Secured Parties, in order to carry out and give full effect to the intents and purposes of the Indenture Document and/or any Additional Secured Debt Document and (d) comply with the requirements of Section 7.15 to the extent the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective successors or assignees desires to have any of its Additional Secured Obligations treated as Additional Secured Obligations hereunder.

7.17. Releases. (a) At such time as the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full, the commitments (if any) have been terminated or expired and no letters of credit shall be outstanding (or shall have been cash collateralized in an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate face amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest and fees that are expected to be payable until the expiration thereof on a first priority secured basis), the Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Collateral Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

(a) If any of the Collateral shall be Disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Indenture and each Additional Secured Debt Document (other than a transaction in which all or substantially all of the Collateral is Disposed of, even if so permitted by the Indenture and each such Additional Secured Debt Document), the Liens created hereby on such Collateral shall be automatically released. At the request and sole expense of the Company, a Subsidiary Grantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary Grantor shall be Disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Indenture and each Additional Secured Debt Document.

(b) Each Grantor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement originally filed in connection herewith without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent subject to such Grantor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the New York UCC.

7.18. Effects of Certain Errors or Omissions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company, the Guarantors, the applicable Authorized Representatives and the Collateral Agent may amend this Agreement without the consent of any Secured Party to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Secured Party and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of the Required Secured Parties.

7.19. Existing Obligations. Any provision contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement is not intended to and shall not serve to effect a novation of the obligations under the Existing Collateral Documents (the “Existing Obligations”), but instead constitutes an amendment and restatement of all obligations, liabilities, terms, conditions and provisions of the Existing Collateral Documents in respect of the Existing Obligations. It is the express intention of the parties hereto to reaffirm the obligations and liabilities created under the

Existing Collateral Documents in respect of the Existing Obligations, which continue as Obligations hereunder in whole or in part (and without the discontinuance of any Lien granted pursuant to the Existing Collateral Documents, which Liens continue uninterrupted under the Collateral Documents as defined herein).

7.20. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
