All shares of capital stock included in such Pledged Equity Interests (including shares of capital stock in respect of which such Lien Grantor owns a Security Entitlement) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable.

After the ARCA Effective Date, no Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor will be in the possession or under the Control of any other Person having a claim thereto or security interest therein, other than a Permitted Lien.

(g) The Transaction Liens on all Personal Property Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor (i) have been validly created, (ii) will attach to each item of such Collateral on the ARCA Effective Date (or, if such Lien Grantor first obtains rights thereto on a later date, on such later date) and (iii) when so attached, will secure all the Secured Obligations or such Lien Grantor’s Transaction Guarantee, as the case may be.

Such Lien Grantor constitutes the Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and file all Intellectual Property Filings and other filings required or so requested for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; and such power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until all the Transaction Liens granted by such Lien Grantor terminate pursuant to Section 19. The Borrower will pay the costs of, or incidental to, any Intellectual Property Filings and any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements or other documents recorded or filed pursuant hereto.

(b) Such Lien Grantor will not (i) change its name or corporate structure, (ii) change its location (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-307) or (iii) become bound, as provided in UCC Section 9-203(d) or otherwise, by a security agreement entered into by another Person, unless it shall have given the Agent at least 30 days prior notice thereof.

(c) Except for sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business, such Lien Grantor will not sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of its Collateral; provided that such Lien Grantor may do any of the foregoing unless (i) doing so would violate a covenant in the Credit Agreement or (ii) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Agent shall have notified such Lien Grantor that its right to do so is terminated, suspended or otherwise limited. Concurrently with any sale, lease or other disposition (except a sale or disposition to another Lien Grantor or a lease) permitted by the foregoing proviso, the Transaction Liens on the assets sold or disposed of (but not in any Proceeds arising from such sale or disposition) will cease immediately without any action by the Agent or any other Secured Party. The Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the relevant Lien Grantor such documents as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the fact that any asset so sold or disposed of is no longer subject to a Transaction Lien.

(d) Such Lien Grantor will, promptly upon request, provide to the Agent all information and evidence concerning such Lien Grantor’s Collateral that the Agent may reasonably request from time to time to enable it to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents.

Section 5. Equipment. Each Lien Grantor covenants that it will not permit any of its Pledged Equipment to become a fixture to real estate or an accession to any personal property that is not included in the Collateral.

Section 6. Recordable Intellectual Property. Each Lien Grantor covenants as follows:

(a) On the ARCA Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will sign and deliver to the Agent Intellectual Property Security Agreements with respect to all Recordable Intellectual Property then owned by it. Within 30 days after each June 30 and December 31 thereafter, it will sign and deliver to the Agent an appropriate Intellectual Property Security Agreement covering any Recordable Intellectual Property owned by it on such June 30 or December 31 that is not covered by any previous Intellectual Property Security Agreement so signed and delivered by it. Each Lien Grantor hereby authorizes the Agent to make all Intellectual Property Filings necessary to record the Transaction Liens on its Recordable Intellectual Property.

(b) Such Lien Grantor will notify the Agent promptly if it knows that any application or registration relating to any Recordable Intellectual Property owned or licensed by it that is material to its business may become abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any adverse determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding such Lien Grantor’s ownership of such Recordable Intellectual Property, its right to register or patent the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. If any of such Lien Grantor’s rights to any Recordable Intellectual Property are infringed, misappropriated or diluted in any material respect by a third party, such Lien Grantor will notify the Agent within 30 days after it learns thereof and will, unless such Lien Grantor shall reasonably determine that such action would be of negligible value, economic or otherwise, promptly xxx for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and take such other actions as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Recordable Intellectual Property.

Section 7. Investment Property. Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a) Certificated Securities. On the ARCA Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will deliver to the Applicable Agent as Collateral hereunder all certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities then owned by such Lien Grantor (to the extent not already delivered). Thereafter, whenever such Lien Grantor acquires any other certificate representing a Pledged Certificated Security, such Lien Grantor will immediately deliver such certificate to the Applicable Agent as Collateral hereunder. The provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation in Section 7(j) in the case of voting Equity Interests in a Foreign Subsidiary.

(b) Uncertificated Securities. On the ARCA Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will enter into (and cause the relevant issuer to enter into) an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of each Pledged Uncertificated Security then owned by such Lien Grantor and deliver such Issuer Control Agreement to the Applicable Agent (which shall enter into the same). Thereafter, whenever such Lien Grantor acquires any other Pledged Uncertificated Security, such Lien Grantor will enter into (and cause the relevant issuer to enter into) an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of such Pledged Uncertificated Security and deliver such Issuer Control Agreement to the Applicable Agent (which shall enter into the same). The provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation in Section 7(j) in the case of voting Equity Interests in a Foreign Subsidiary.

(c) Security Entitlements. On the ARCA Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will, with respect to each Security Entitlement then owned by it, enter into (and cause the relevant Securities Intermediary to enter into) a Securities Account Control Agreement in respect of such Security Entitlement and the Securities Account to which the underlying Financial Asset is credited and will deliver such Securities Account Control Agreement to the Applicable Agent (which shall enter into the same). Thereafter, whenever such Lien Grantor acquires any other Security Entitlement, such Lien Grantor will, as promptly as practicable, cause the underlying Financial Asset to be credited to a Controlled Securities Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (c), the Lien Grantors have the right not to comply therewith with respect to Securities Accounts having an aggregate value of less than $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Lien Grantors; provided, that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Applicable Agent may terminate the foregoing right not to comply, or reduce the amount thereof, by giving at least 10 Business Days’ notice of such termination or reduction to the relevant Lien Grantors.

(d) Perfection as to Certificated Securities. When such Lien Grantor delivers the certificate representing any Pledged Certificated Security owned by it to the Applicable Agent and complies with Section 7(h) in connection with such delivery, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Certificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except non-consensual Liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement having priority as a matter of law), (ii) the Applicable Agent will have Control of such Pledged Certificated Security and (iii) the Applicable Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof.

(e) Perfection as to Uncertificated Securities. When such Lien Grantor, the Applicable Agent and the issuer of any Pledged Uncertificated Security owned by such Lien Grantor enter into an Issuer Control Agreement with respect thereto, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Uncertificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except non-consensual Liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement having priority as a matter of law), (ii) the Applicable Agent will have Control of such Pledged Uncertificated Security and (iii) the Applicable Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof.

(f) Perfection as to Security Entitlements. So long as the Financial Asset underlying any Security Entitlement owned by such Lien Grantor is credited to a Controlled Securities Account, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Security Entitlement will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except Liens and rights of the relevant Securities Intermediary that are Permitted Liens and any other Liens consented to by the Applicable Agent, and non-consensual Liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement having priority as a matter of law), (ii) the Applicable Agent will have Control of such Security Entitlement and (iii) no action based on an adverse claim to such Security Entitlement or such Financial Asset, whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien or other theory, may be asserted against the Applicable Agent or any other Secured Party.

(g) Agreement as to Applicable Jurisdiction. In respect of all Security Entitlements owned by such Lien Grantor, and all Securities Accounts to which the related Financial Assets are credited, the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 8-110(e)) will at all times be located in the United States.

(h) Delivery of Pledged Certificates. All Pledged Certificates, when delivered to the Applicable Agent, will be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, with signatures appropriately witnessed, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Applicable Agent.

(i) Communications. Each Lien Grantor will promptly give to the Applicable Agent copies of any material notices and communications received by it with respect to (i) Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Lien Grantor or its nominee and (ii) Pledged Security Entitlements as to which such Lien Grantor is the Entitlement Holder.

(j) Foreign Subsidiaries. A Lien Grantor will not be obligated to comply with the provisions of this Section at any time with respect to any voting Equity Interest in a Foreign Subsidiary if and to the extent (but only to the extent) that such voting Equity Interest is excluded from the Transaction Liens at such time pursuant to clause (B) of the proviso at the end of Section 2(a) and/or the comparable provisions of one or more Security Agreement Supplements.

(k) Compliance with Applicable Foreign Laws. If and so long as the Collateral includes (i) any Equity Interest in, or other Investment Property issued by, a legal entity organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States or (ii) any Security Entitlement in respect of a Financial Asset issued by such a foreign legal entity, the relevant Lien Grantor will take all such action as may be required under the laws of such foreign jurisdiction to ensure that the Transaction Lien on such Collateral ranks prior to all Liens and rights of others therein.

Section 8. Controlled Deposit Accounts. Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a) All cash owned by such Lien Grantor will be deposited, upon or promptly after the receipt thereof, in one or more Controlled Deposit Accounts. Each Controlled Deposit Account will be operated as provided in Section 10.

(b) In respect of each Controlled Deposit Account, the Depositary Bank’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-304) will at all times be a jurisdiction in which Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect.

(c) So long as the Applicable Agent has Control of a Controlled Deposit Account, the Transaction Lien on such Controlled Deposit Account will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except the Depositary Bank’s right to deduct its normal operating charges and any uncollected funds previously credited thereto and any other Liens consented to by the Applicable Agent, and non-consensual Liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement having priority as a matter of law).

(d) Materiality Exception. The Lien Grantors have the right not to comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section with respect to (i) Deposit Accounts that are payroll or trust accounts and (ii) other Deposit Accounts having total collected balances that do not at any time exceed $2,000,000 in the aggregate for all Lien Grantors.

Section 9. Cash Collateral Accounts. (a) The Lien Grantors will establish the following Deposit Accounts (each such Deposit Account, a “Cash Collateral Account”), which will be operated as provided in this Section and Section 10:

(i) the Collection Account, which shall be under the exclusive control of the Agent; and

(ii) the Letter of Credit Account, which shall be under the exclusive control of the Agent.

(b) The following amounts shall be deposited into the Cash Collateral Accounts:

(i) the Lien Grantors shall deposit to the Collection Account all amounts required pursuant to Sections 2.12(b) and 5.11(b) of the Credit Agreement;

(ii) the Lien Grantors shall deposit to the Letter of Credit Account all amounts required pursuant to Sections 2.03(k) and 2.12(a)(ii) and Article 7 of the Credit Agreement; and

(iii) the Agent shall deposit to the Collection Account each amount realized or otherwise received with respect to assets of any Lien Grantor upon any exercise of remedies pursuant to any Security Document.

(c) The Agent shall maintain such records and/or establish such sub-accounts as shall be required to enable it to identify the amounts held in each Cash Collateral Account from time to time pursuant to each clause of subsection (b) of this Section, as applicable.

(d) The Agent shall withdraw amounts from the Cash Collateral Accounts and apply them for the following purposes:

(i) any amounts deposited in the Collection Account shall be applied by the Agent on each Business Day to prepay outstanding Loans or to increase the amount of Cash Collateralization in the Letter of Credit Account in accordance with Section 2.12(a) of the Credit Agreement; and

(ii) any amounts deposited to the Letter of Credit Account shall (i) be held as collateral security for the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in respect of any LC Exposure and withdrawn and applied against the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in respect of any unreimbursed LC Disbursements, (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or if the maturity of the Loans shall have been accelerated pursuant to Article 7 of the Credit Agreement, be held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and, in the discretion of the Agent, transferred to the Collection Account or (iii) be returned to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Section 10. Operation of Collateral Accounts. (a) Funds held in any Cash Collateral Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the Borrower shall request from time to time; provided that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent (in the case of the Collection Account and the Letter of Credit Account) or the Applicable Agent (in the case of all other Cash Collateral Accounts) may select such Permitted Investments. Funds held in any Controlled Deposit Account or Controlled Securities Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the Borrower shall request from time to time; provided that if a Liquidity Trigger Period shall be continuing, the Applicable Agent may select such Permitted Investments. Any investment income received on the Cash Collateral Accounts will be deposited into and become part of the Cash Collateral Accounts.

(b) With respect to each Controlled Deposit Account and each Controlled Securities Account (it being understood that the provisions of Section 9 shall apply to all Cash Collateral Accounts), the Applicable Agent will instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank that the relevant Lien Grantor may withdraw, or direct the disposition of, funds held therein unless and until the Applicable Agent rescinds such instruction. The Applicable Agent will not rescind such instructions unless a Liquidity Trigger Period shall be continuing.

(c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent (with respect to the Collection Account and the Letter of Credit Account) and the Applicable Agent (with respect to any other Collateral Account) may retain or liquidate, or instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank to retain or liquidate, any or all cash or investments then held in such Collateral Account and/or withdraw any amounts held therein and apply such amounts as provided in Section 14.

Section 11. Transfer of Record Ownership. At any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Applicable Agent may (and to the extent that action by it is required, the relevant Lien Grantor, if directed to do so by the Applicable Agent, will as promptly as practicable) cause each of the Pledged Securities (or any portion thereof specified in such direction) to be transferred of record into the name of the Applicable Agent or its nominee. Each Lien Grantor will take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Applicable Agent to facilitate compliance with this Section. If the provisions of this Section are implemented, Section 7(b) shall not thereafter apply to any Pledged Security that is registered in the name of the Applicable Agent or its nominee. The Applicable Agent will promptly give to the relevant Lien Grantor copies of any notices and other communications received by the Applicable Agent with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of the Applicable Agent or its nominee.

Section 12. Right to Vote Securities. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lien Grantor will have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any Pledged Security owned by it and the Financial Asset underlying any Pledged Security Entitlement owned by it, and the Agent will, upon receiving a written request from such Lien Grantor, deliver to such Lien Grantor or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any such Pledged Security that is registered in the name of the Agent or its nominee or any such Pledged Security Entitlement as to which the Agent or its nominee is the Entitlement Holder, in each case as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Applicable Agent will have no right to take any action which the owner of a Pledged Partnership Interest or Pledged LLC Interest is entitled to take with respect thereto, except the right to receive payments and other distributions to the extent provided herein.

(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Applicable Agent will have the right (but not the obligation), to the extent permitted by law (and, in the case of a Pledged Partnership Interest or Pledged LLC Interest, by the relevant partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement, operating agreement or other governing document), to vote, to give consents, ratifications and waivers and to take any other action with respect to the Pledged Investment Property, the other Pledged Equity Interests (if any) and the Financial Assets underlying the Pledged Security Entitlements, with the same force and effect as if the Applicable Agent were the absolute and sole owner thereof, and each Lien Grantor will take all such action as the Applicable Agent may reasonably request from time to time to give effect to such right.

Section 13. Remedies upon Event of Default. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent may exercise (or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) under the Security Documents.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent may exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) with respect to any Personal Property Collateral and, in addition, the Agent (with respect to the Collection Account and the Letter of Credit Account) and the Applicable Agent (with respect to any other Collateral Account) may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, withdraw all cash held in such Collateral Account and apply such cash as provided in Section 14 and, if there shall be no such cash or if such cash shall be insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations in full, sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof. Notice of any such sale or other disposition shall be given to the relevant Lien Grantor(s) as required by Section 16. The foregoing provisions of this subsection shall apply to Real Property Collateral only to the extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of any applicable Mortgage or other document.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and subject to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement with respect to each Type of Common Collateral:

(i) the Agent may license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any Pledged intellectual property (including any Pledged Recordable Intellectual Property) throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as the Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; provided that such licenses or sublicenses do not conflict with any existing license of which the Agent shall have received a copy;

(ii) the Agent may (without assuming any obligation or liability thereunder), at any time and from time to time, in its sole and reasonable discretion, enforce (and shall have the exclusive right to enforce) against any licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of any Lien Grantor in, to and under any of its Pledged intellectual property and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof, and each Lien Grantor releases the Agent and each other Secured Party from liability for, and agrees to hold the Agent and each other Secured Party free and harmless from and against any claims and expenses arising out of, any lawful action so taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto, except for claims and expenses arising from the Agent’s or such Secured Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision; and

(iii) upon request by the Agent (which shall not be construed as implying any limitation on its rights or powers), each Lien Grantor will execute and deliver to the Agent a power of attorney, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, for the implementation of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of any of such Lien Grantor’s Pledged intellectual property or any action related thereto. In connection with any such disposition, but subject to any confidentiality restrictions imposed on such Lien Grantor in any license or similar agreement, such Lien Grantor will supply to the Agent its know-how and expertise relating to the relevant intellectual property or the products or services made or rendered in connection with such intellectual property, and its customer lists and other records relating to such intellectual property and to the distribution of said products or services.

Section 14. Application of Proceeds. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent may apply (i) any cash held in the Collection Account and the Letter of Credit Account and (ii) subject to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement with respect to each Type of Common Collateral, any amounts held in any other Collateral Account and the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral, in the following order of priorities:

first, to pay the expenses of such sale or other disposition, including reasonable compensation to agents of and counsel for the Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Agent in connection with the Security Documents, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Agent pursuant to Section 15 or pursuant to Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement;

second, to pay ratably (x) the unpaid principal of the Obligations and (y) all Secured Obligations constituting Banking Services Obligations or Secured Hedging Obligations (or provide for the payment thereof pursuant to Section 14(b)), until payment in full thereof shall have been made (or so provided for);

third, to pay ratably (i) all interest (including Post-Petition Interest) on the Obligations and (ii) all Fees payable under the Credit Agreement, until payment in full of all such interest and Fees shall have been made;

fourth, to pay ratably (or provide for the payment thereof pursuant to Section 14(b)) all other Secured Obligations, until payment in full of all such other Secured Obligations shall have been made (or so provided for);

fifth, to the Term Loan Agent to be applied in accordance with Section 14 of the Term Loan Security Agreement; and

finally, to pay to the relevant Lien Grantor, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, any surplus then remaining from the proceeds of the Collateral owned by it;

provided that (i) Collateral owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor and any proceeds thereof shall be applied pursuant to the foregoing clauses only to the extent that the value thereof does not exceed the largest amount that would not render the Transaction Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable law. The Agent may make such distributions hereunder in cash or in kind or, on a ratable basis, in any combination thereof.

(b) If at any time any portion of any monies collected or received by the Agent would, but for the provisions of this Section 14(b), be payable pursuant to Section 14(a) in respect of a Contingent Secured Obligation, the Agent shall not apply any monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation but instead shall request the holder thereof, at least 10 days before each proposed distribution hereunder, to notify the Agent as to the maximum amount of such Contingent Secured Obligation if then ascertainable (e.g., in the case of a letter of credit, the maximum amount available for subsequent drawings thereunder). If the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation does not notify the Agent of the maximum ascertainable amount thereof at least two Business Days before such distribution, such holder will not be entitled to share in such distribution. If such holder does so notify the Agent as to the maximum ascertainable amount thereof, the Agent will allocate to such holder a portion of the monies to be distributed in such distribution, calculated as if such Contingent Secured Obligation were outstanding in such maximum ascertainable amount. However, the Agent will not apply such portion of such monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation, but instead will hold such monies or invest such monies in Permitted Investments. All such monies and Permitted Investments and all proceeds thereof will constitute Collateral hereunder, but will be subject to distribution in accordance with this Section 14(b) rather than Section 14(a). The Agent will hold all such monies and Permitted Investments and the net proceeds thereof in trust until all or part of such Contingent Secured Obligation becomes a Non-Contingent Secured Obligation, whereupon the Agent at the request of the relevant Secured Party will apply the amount so held in trust to pay such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation; provided that, if the other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 14(a) (i.e., clause second or fourth) were not paid in full, the Agent will apply the amount so held in trust to pay the same percentage of such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation as the percentage of such other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 14(a). If (i) the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation shall advise the Agent that no portion thereof remains in the category of a Contingent Secured Obligation and (ii) the Agent still holds any amount held in trust pursuant to this Section 14(b) in respect of such Contingent Secured Obligation (after paying all amounts payable pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any portions thereof that became Non-Contingent Secured Obligations), such remaining amount will be applied by the Agent in the order of priorities set forth in Section 14(a).

(c) In making the payments and allocations required by this Section, the Agent may rely upon information supplied to it pursuant to Section 18(c). All distributions made by the Agent pursuant to this Section shall be final (except in the event of manifest error) and the Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by any Secured Party of any amount distributed to it.

Section 15. Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will forthwith upon demand pay to the Agent:

(i) the amount of any taxes that the Agent may have been required to pay by reason of the Transaction Liens or to free any Collateral from any other Lien thereon;

(ii) the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including transfer taxes and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, professional advisors and other experts, that the Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or enforcement of the Security Documents, including such expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Transaction Lien, (y) the collection, sale or other disposition of any Collateral or (z) the exercise by the Agent of any of its rights or powers under the Security Documents;

(iii) the amount of any fees that the Borrower shall have agreed in writing to pay to the Agent and that shall have become due and payable in accordance with such written agreement; and

(iv) the amount required to indemnify the Agent and its directors, officers, agents, counsel and employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) for, or hold them harmless and defend them against, any loss, liability or expense (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel, professional advisors and any experts or sub-agents appointed by it hereunder) incurred or suffered by the Indemnitees in connection with the Security Documents, except to the extent that such loss, liability or expense arises from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or a breach of any duty that the Agent has under this Agreement (after giving effect to Sections 17 and 18), as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision.

Any such amount not paid to the Agent on demand will bear interest for each day thereafter until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

(b) If any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax or other tax is payable in connection with any transfer or other transaction provided for in the Security Documents, the Borrower will pay such tax and provide any required tax stamps to the Agent or as otherwise required by law.

Section 16. Authority to Administer Collateral. Each Lien Grantor irrevocably appoints the Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Lien Grantor, any Secured Party or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the Borrower’s expense, to the extent permitted by law to exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of such Lien Grantor’s Collateral:

(a) to demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,

(b) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,

(c) to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and

(d) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto;

provided that, except in the case of Personal Property Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Agent will give the relevant Lien Grantor at least ten days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof will be made. Any such notice shall (i) contain the information specified in UCC Section 9-613, (ii) be Authenticated and (iii) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to UCC Section 9-611(c); provided that, if the Agent fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of law under the UCC.

Section 17. Limitation on Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof, the Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any sub-agent or bailee or any income therefrom or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by the Agent in good faith, except to the extent that such liability arises from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision.

Section 18. General Provisions Concerning the Agent.

(a) The provisions of Article 8 of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Agent, and shall be binding upon all Lien Grantors and all Secured Parties, in connection with this Agreement and the other Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Security Documents that the Agent is required in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.09 of the Credit Agreement), and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to any Group Member that is communicated to or obtained by the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any Collateral or for the validity, perfection, continuation, priority or enforceability of any Transaction Lien, including without limitation the filing, form, content or renewal of UCC financing statements, Mortgages or similar documents or instruments, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part under the Security Documents. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by a Lien Grantor or a Secured Party.

(b) Sub- Agents and Related Parties. The Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through one or more sub-agents appointed by it and shall not be responsible for the negligence of such sub-agents appointed with reasonable care. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of Section 17 and this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent.

(c) Information as to Secured Obligations and Actions by Secured Parties. For all purposes of the Security Documents, including determining the amounts of the Secured Obligations and whether a Secured Obligation is a Contingent Secured Obligation or not, or whether any action has been taken under any Secured Agreement, the Agent will be entitled to rely on information from (i) its own records for information as to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender, their Secured Obligations and actions taken by them, (ii) any Secured Party for information as to its Secured Obligations and actions taken by it, to the extent that the Agent has not obtained such information from its own records, and (iii) the Borrower, to the extent that the Agent has not obtained information from the foregoing sources.

(d) Refusal to Act. The Agent may refuse to act on any notice, consent, direction or instruction from any Secured Parties or any agent, trustee or similar representative thereof that, in the Agent’s opinion, (i) is contrary to law or the provisions of any Security Document, (ii) may expose the Agent to liability (unless the Agent shall have been indemnified, to its reasonable satisfaction, for such liability by the Secured Parties that gave such notice, consent, direction or instruction) or (iii) is unduly prejudicial to Secured Parties not joining in such notice, consent, direction or instruction.

Section 19. Termination of Transaction Liens; Release of Collateral. (a) The Transaction Liens granted by each Guarantor shall terminate when its Transaction Guarantee terminates in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(b) The Transaction Liens shall terminate when all the Release Conditions are satisfied; provided, that if at any time any payment of a Secured Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, the Transaction Liens shall be reinstated.

(c) At any time before the Transaction Liens terminate, the Agent may, at the written request of the Borrower, release any Collateral (but not all or substantially all the Collateral) with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

(d) Upon any termination of a Transaction Lien or release of Collateral, the Agent will, at the expense of the relevant Lien Grantor, execute and deliver to such Lien Grantor such documents as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of such Transaction Lien or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be.

Section 20. Additional Lien Grantors. Any Subsidiary may become a party hereto by signing and delivering to the Agent a Security Agreement Supplement, whereupon such Subsidiary shall become a “Lien Grantor” as defined herein.

Section 21. Notices. Each notice, request or other communication given to any party hereunder shall be given or made in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 22. No Implied Waivers; Remedies Not Exclusive. No failure by the Agent or any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right or remedy under any Security Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Agent or any Secured Party of any right or remedy under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies specified in the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 23. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties. If all or any part of any Secured Party’s interest in any Secured Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred in a transaction permitted under the Credit Agreement, the transferor’s rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall be automatically transferred with such obligation. This Agreement shall be binding on the Lien Grantors and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 24. Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended, modified or terminated except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agent, with the consent of such Lenders as are required to consent thereto under Section 10.09 of the Credit Agreement. No such waiver, amendment or modification shall (i) be binding upon any Lien Grantor, except with the written consent of the Borrower or (ii) affect the rights of a Secured Party (other than a Lender) hereunder more adversely than it affects the comparable rights of the Lenders hereunder, without the consent of such Secured Party.

Section 25. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law and except to the extent that remedies provided by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York are governed by the laws of such jurisdiction.

Section 26. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 27. Severability. Any provision of any Security Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 28. Credit Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Credit Agreement and this Agreement but subject to Section 30, the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall control. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the other Security Documents and this Agreement but subject to Section 30, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.

Section 29. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopier or electronic image scan transmission (such as a “pdf” file) will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 30. ABL Intercreditor Agreement. Reference is made to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

Section 31. Amendment And Restatement. On the ARCA Effective Date, the Existing Security Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement, and the Existing Security Agreement shall thereafter be and shall be deemed replaced and superseded in all respects by this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation or termination of the Secured Obligations under the Existing Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents as in effect prior to the ARCA Effective Date and which remain outstanding as of the ARCA Effective Date, (ii) the Secured Obligations under the Existing Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby and which are in all respects hereinafter subject to the terms herein) and (iii) without in any way limiting the grant of security pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, the Liens and security interests as granted under the Existing Security Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents securing payment of such Secured Obligations are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect and are reaffirmed hereby. To the extent applicable, the Lien Grantors hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that any financing statements, fixture filings, filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or other instruments similar in effect to the foregoing under applicable law covering all or any part of the Collateral previously filed in favor of the Agent under the Existing Security Agreement are in full force and effect as of the date hereof and each Lien Grantor ratifies its authorization for the Agent to file in any relevant jurisdictions any such financing statement, fixture filing or other instrument relating to all or any part of the Collateral if filed prior to the date hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
