     (i) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all Lenders with outstanding Term Loans under the relevant Tranche continue to participate in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans under such Tranche (after giving effect to the incurrence of Incremental Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1(b) on a pro rata basis, including by adding the Incremental Term Loans to be so incurred to the then outstanding Borrowings of Term Loans on a pro rata basis even though as a result thereof such new Incremental Term Loan (to the extent required to be maintained as Eurocurrency Loans), may effectively have a shorter Interest Period than the then outstanding Borrowings of Term Loans under such Tranche and it is hereby agreed that (x) to the extent any then outstanding Borrowings of Term Loans that are maintained as Eurocurrency Loans are affected as a result thereof, any costs of the type described in subsection 3.12 incurred by such Lenders in connection therewith shall be for the account of the Borrowers or (y) to the extent the Incremental Term Loans to be so incurred are added to the then outstanding Borrowings of Term Loans which are maintained as Eurocurrency Loans, the Lenders that have made such additional Incremental Term Loans shall be entitled to receive an effective interest rate on such additional Incremental Term Loans as is equal to the Eurocurrency Rate as in effect two Business Days prior to the incurrence of such additional Incremental Term Loans plus the then Applicable Margin for such Tranche of Term Loans until the end of the respective Interest Period or Interest Periods with respect thereto,
     (ii) the Incremental Term Loans to be made pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall have the same Maturity Date and the same Weighted Average Life to Maturity as the Tranche of Term Loans to which the new

exceed under any circumstance whatsoever the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable usury laws.
          3.2 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Parent Borrower may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Term Loans from Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurocurrency Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Parent Borrower may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Term Loans from ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election. Any such notice of conversion to Eurocurrency Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurocurrency Loans and ABR Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) no Term Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, in the case of any Default, the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Parent Borrower that no such conversions may be made and (ii) no Term Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan after the date that is one month prior to the Maturity Date therefor.
          (b) Any Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Parent Borrower giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Term Loan, determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in subsection 1.1, provided that no Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, in the case of any Default, the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Parent Borrower that no such continuations may be made or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the Maturity Date therefor, and provided, further, that if the applicable Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Eurocurrency Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period.

          3.3 Minimum Amounts of Sets. All borrowings, conversions and continuations of Term Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans comprising each Set shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and so that there shall not be more than 15 Sets at any one time outstanding (other than Sets comprised of new Term Loans, if any).

(a) Each of the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Term Loans made to it, in whole or in part, subject to subsection 3.12 and paragraph (e) of this subsection. 3.4, upon at least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative

-33-


 

Agent, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans outstanding and at least one Business Day’s irrevocable notice by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent, in the case of ABR Loans; provided that any such notice of prepayment delivered by any such Borrower in connection with a prepayment of all outstanding Obligations may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Such notice shall specify the identity of the prepaying Borrower, the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurocurrency Loans, ABR Loans or a combination thereof. Upon the receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall (subject to the proviso contained in the third preceding sentence) be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid other than at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto) any amounts payable pursuant to subsection 3.12 and accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of the Incremental Term Loans pursuant to this subsection shall be applied as set forth and as agreed to in any Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreements to the respective installments of principal thereof (if any). Partial prepayments pursuant to this subsection 3.4(a) shall be in multiples of $1,000,000; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Term Loan may be prepaid in its entirety.
          (b) If on or after the Closing Date (i) the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall incur Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than Indebtedness permitted pursuant to subsection 7.1, except as otherwise specified in subsection 7.1) pursuant to a public offering or private placement or otherwise, (ii) the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall consummate an Asset Sale, (iii) a Recovery Event occurs or (iv) the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction, then, in each case, if and to the extent the applicable Net Cash Proceeds are not required to be applied to the payment of obligations of the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates that are borrowers under the ABL Credit Agreement, the relevant Borrower shall prepay, in accordance with subsection 3.4(c), the Term Loans in an amount equal to: (x) in the case of the incurrence of any such Indebtedness, 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof; (y) in the case of any such Asset Sale or Recovery Event, 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof minus any Reinvested Amounts; and (z) in the case of any such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, in each case with such prepayment to be made on the Business Day following the date of receipt of any such Net Cash Proceeds except that, in the case of clause (y), if any such Net Cash Proceeds are eligible to be reinvested in accordance with the definition of the term “Reinvested Amount” in subsection 1.1 and the Parent Borrower has not elected to reinvest such proceeds (or portion thereof, as the case may be), such prepayment to be made on the earlier of (1) the date on which the certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower to such effect is delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with such definition and (2) the last day of the period within which a certificate setting forth such election is required to be delivered in accordance with such definition). Nothing in this paragraph (b) shall limit the rights of the Agents and the Lenders set forth in Section 8.
          (c) Prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to subsections 3.4(b) shall be applied pro rata to each Tranche of Term Loans (based on the relative aggregate outstanding

-34-


 

principal amount of each Tranche of Term Loans) and applied as provided in the respective Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement for such Term Loans to the respective installments of principal (if any) under each such Tranche.
          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 3.4, if at any time any prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to subsection 3.4(a) or 3.4(b) would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in any Borrower incurring breakage costs under subsection 3.12 as a result of Eurocurrency Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, the relevant Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion, initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurocurrency Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans not immediately prepaid), to be held as security for the obligations of the Borrowers to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by the Parent Borrower); provided that, such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with subsection 3.1 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans or the related portion of such Eurocurrency Loans have or has been prepaid.
          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 3.4, or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Lenders shall have the option to waive a mandatory prepayment of such Term Loans made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this subsection 3.4 (each such prepayment, a “Waivable Prepayment”) upon the terms and provisions set forth in this paragraph (e). If a Lender elects to exercise the option referred to in the preceding sentence, such Lender shall so advise the Administrative Agent no later than the close of business two Business Days after the date such Lender receives notice of the respective prepayment from the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 3.4(b) and shall notify the Administrative Agent of the amount, if any, of such prepayment such Lender desires to receive in respect of such prepayment. If any Lender does not reply to the Administrative Agent within the aforementioned two Business Day period, such Lender will be deemed not to have waived any part of such prepayment. If any Lender does not specify an amount such Lender wishes to receive, it will be deemed to have waived 100% of the amount of its share of such payment. In the event that any such Lender waives all or part of such right to receive any such Waivable Prepayment, the amount so waived shall be retained by the Borrowers.
          (f) Each prepayment of Initial Term Loans pursuant to subsection 3.4(a) made prior to November 27, 2008 shall be subject to the payment of the fees described in subsection 3.5.
          (g) In addition to any other mandatory commitment reductions pursuant to this subsection 3.4, the Initial Term Loan Commitment of each Lender shall terminate in its entirety on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the incurrence of Initial Term Loans on such date).

-35-


 

          (h) In addition to any other mandatory commitment reductions pursuant to this subsection 3.4, (i) the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Lender provided pursuant to a particular Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall be permanently reduced on each Incremental Term Loan Borrowing Date on which Incremental Term Loans are incurred pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loans made by such Lender pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement on such date, (ii) the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Lender provided pursuant to a particular Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall terminate at 5:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the earlier of (i) the date specified in such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement and (ii) the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date (whether or not any Incremental Term Loans are incurred on either such date).
          (i) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and each other Borrower) shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, without premium or penalty to terminate any Incremental Term Loan Commitments in whole, or reduce such commitments in part, in an integral multiple of $10,000,000 in the case of partial reductions to unused Incremental Term Loan Commitments.
          (j) Each reduction to, or termination of, Incremental Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this paragraphs (g) and (h) of this subsection 3.4 shall be applied to proportionately reduce or terminate, as the case may be, the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Lender with an Incremental Term Loan Commitment.
          3.5 Fees. (a) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent (for the ratable distribution to each Lender holding Initial Term Loans) upon any prepayment of principal of Initial Term Loans pursuant to subsection 3.4(a), a fee in an amount equal to (i) in the case of any such prepayment occurring on or prior to November 27, 2007, the product of (x) the principal amount of Initial Term Loans being prepaid and (y) 2.0% and (ii) in the case of any such prepayment occurring after November 27, 2007 and on or prior to November 27, 2008, the product of (x) the principal amount of Initial Term Loans being prepaid and (y) 1.0%.
          (b) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender with an Incremental Term Loan Commitment such facility fees, commitment commission and other amounts, if any, as are specified in the Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement pursuant to which such Incremental Term Loan Commitment has been provided, with such facility fees, commitment commission and other amounts, if any, to be payable at the times set forth in such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement.
          (c) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers any fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by Holdings, any Affiliate of Holdings, the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement.

-36-


 

          3.6 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest (other than interest based on the Prime Rate) and any commitment fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed; and interest based on the Prime Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-day year, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Parent Borrower and the affected Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Term Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Parent Borrower and the affected Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.
          (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on each of the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Parent Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Parent Borrower or such Lender a statement showing in reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to subsection 3.1, excluding any Eurocurrency Base Rate which is based upon the Telerate British Bankers Assoc. Interest Settlement Rates Page and any ABR Loan which is based upon the Prime Rate.
          3.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan (the “Affected Rate”) for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (a) any Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Rate requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans and (b) any Term Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate shall be converted to or continued as ABR Loans.
          3.8 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on any Term Loans shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the respective Lenders. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by any of the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders holding the relevant Loans at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in subsection 10.2, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to such Lenders, if any such payment is received prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, in like funds as received prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Lenders on the next succeeding

-37-


 

Business Day. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.
          (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the Administrative Agent for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, (x) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower of the failure of such Lender to make such amount available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans hereunder on demand, from the Borrowers and (y) then the Borrowers may, without waiving or limiting any rights or remedies any of them may have against such Lender hereunder or under applicable law or otherwise, borrow a like amount on an unsecured basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon which such Lender does in fact make such borrowing available, provided that at the time such borrowing is made and at all times while such amount is outstanding the Borrowers would be permitted to borrow such amount pursuant to subsection 2.1.
          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:
     (i) If at any time a Lender shall not make a Loan required to be made by it hereunder (any such Lender, a “Defaulting Lender”), the Parent Borrower shall have the right to seek one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to each become a substitute Lender and assume all or part of the outstanding Loans and/or Term Loan Commitments of such Defaulting Lender. In such event, the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any such substitute Lender shall execute and deliver, and such Defaulting Lender shall thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered, an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance to effect such substitution.

-38-


 

     (ii) In determining the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, any Lender that at the time is a Defaulting Lender (and the Loans and/or Term Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender) shall be excluded and disregarded. No commitment fee shall accrue for the account of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.
     (iii) If at any time any Borrower shall be required to make any payment under any Loan Document to or for the account of a Defaulting Lender, then such Borrower, so long as it is then permitted to borrow Term Loans hereunder, may set off and otherwise apply its obligation to make such payment against the obligation of such Defaulting Lender (if any) to make such Term Loan. In such event, the amount so set off and otherwise applied shall be deemed to constitute a Term Loan by such Defaulting Lender made on the date of such set-off and included within any borrowing of Term Loans as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine.
          3.9 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Affected Loans, continue Affected Loans as such and convert an ABR Loan to an Affected Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Affected Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make an ABR Loan when an Affected Loan is requested and (c) such Lender’s Term Loans then outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Term Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of an Affected Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 3.12.
          3.10 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender):
     (i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Eurocurrency Loans made or maintained by it or its obligation to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof in each case, except for Non-Excluded Taxes and taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income, branch profit taxes or franchise taxes, or taxes measured by or imposed upon overall capital or net worth (in the case of such capital or net worth taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes), of such Lender or its applicable lending office, branch, or any affiliate thereof;

-39-


 

     (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate hereunder; or
     (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition (excluding any tax of any kind whatsoever);
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Parent Borrower from such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, in accordance herewith, the Borrowers shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans, provided that, in any such case, the Parent Borrower may elect to convert the Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender hereunder to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s notice of such election, in which case the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, amounts theretofore required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this subsection 3.10(a) and such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 3.12. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Parent Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this paragraph (a) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
          (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing Date, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within ten Business Days after submission by such Lender to the Parent Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events described in this paragraph (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender or corporation and a reasonably detailed

-40-


 

explanation of the calculation thereof, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or corporation for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 3.10, no Borrower shall be required to pay any amount with respect to any additional cost or reduction specified in paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) above, to the extent such additional cost or reduction is attributable, directly or indirectly, to the application of, compliance with or implementation of specific capital adequacy requirements or new methods of calculating capital adequacy, including any part or “pillar” (including Pillar 2 (“Supervisory Review Process”)), of the International Convergence of Capital Measurement Standards: a Revised Framework, published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in June 2004, or any implementation, adoption (whether voluntary or compulsory) thereof, whether by an EC Directive or the FSA Integrated Prudential Sourcebook or any other law or regulation, or otherwise.
          3.11 Taxes. (a) Except as provided below in this subsection or as required by law, all payments made by each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (“Taxes”), excluding Taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income of the Administrative Agent or Lender or its applicable lending office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, and all franchise Taxes, branch Taxes, Taxes on doing business or Taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall capital or net worth of any Administrative Agent or Lender or its applicable lending office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, in each case imposed: (i) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Administrative Agent or Lender, applicable lending office, branch or affiliate is organized or is located, or in which its principal executive office is located, or any nation within which such jurisdiction is located or any political subdivision thereof; or (ii) by reason of any connection between the jurisdiction imposing such Tax and the Administrative Agent or Lender, applicable lending office, branch or affiliate other than a connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations under, or received payment under or enforced, this Agreement or any Notes. If any such non-excluded Taxes (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Notes, the amounts so payable by such Borrower shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that each of the Borrowers shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, and the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify for, any Non-Excluded Taxes, and any such amounts payable by any Borrower to, or for the account of, any Administrative Agent or Lender, shall not be increased (x) if the Administrative Agent or Lender fails to comply with the requirements of paragraphs (b) or (c) of this subsection or (y) with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed in connection with the payment of any fees paid under this Agreement unless such Non-Excluded Taxes are

-41-


 

imposed as a result of a change in treaty, law or regulation that occurred after such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (or, if such Lender is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, after the relevant beneficiary or member of such Lender became such a beneficiary or member, if later) (such change, at such time, a “Change in Law”) or (z) with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof, unless such Non-Excluded Taxes are imposed as a result of a Change in Law. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrowers, as promptly as possible thereafter the Parent Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrowers showing payment thereof. If any Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this subsection 3.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
          (b) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall:
     (X) (i) on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Lender, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (A) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (certifying that it is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country) or Form W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case certifying that it is entitled to receive all payments under this Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, (B) in the case of DBNY, also deliver two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the Borrowers and DBNY agree to so treat DBNY as a U.S. person with respect to such payments), with the effect that the Borrowers can make payments to DBNY without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States and (C) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes;
     (ii) deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it to the Parent Borrower; and

-42-


 

     (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and completing such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent; or
     (Y) in the case of any such Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”,
     (i) represent to the Borrowers that it is not a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code;
     (ii) deliver to the Parent Borrower on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, (A) two certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit C (any such certificate a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or successor applicable form certifying to such Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such form to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and any Notes (and shall also deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of such form or certificate on or before the date it expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form or certificate and, if necessary, obtain any extensions of time reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms or certificates); and
     (iii) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Parent Borrower, to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes, provided that in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (ii) such Lender shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by any of the Borrowers) which would be imposed on such Lender of complying with such request; or
     (Z) in the case of any such Lender that is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
     (i) on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Lender, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and, if any beneficiary or member of such Lender is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, (I) represent to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that such Lender is not a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, and (II) also deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates certifying to such Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an

exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and any Notes; and
     (A) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Lender that is not claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, also deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (I) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (certifying that such beneficiary or member is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country), Form W-8ECI or Form W-9, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case so that each such beneficiary or member is entitled to receive all payments under this Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and (II) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that each such beneficiary or member is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to all payments under this Agreement and any Notes; and
     (B) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Lender that is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, (I) represent to the Borrowers that such beneficiary or member is not a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, and (II) also deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates from each beneficiary or member and two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or successor applicable form, certifying to such beneficiary’s or member’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and any Notes;
     (ii) deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any such forms, certificates or certifications referred to above on or before the date any such form, certificate or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or any beneficiary or member changes, and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form, certificate or certification and obtain such extensions of time reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms, certificates or certifications; and
     (iii) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Parent Borrower, to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender (or beneficiary or member) to an exemption from withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes, provided that in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (iii) such Lender shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by any of the Borrowers) which would be imposed on such Lender (or beneficiary or member) of complying with such request;

-44-


 

unless in any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Person becomes a Lender hereunder (or a beneficiary or member in the circumstances described in clause (Z) above, if later) which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender (or such beneficiary or member) from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
          (c) Each Lender that is organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, shall on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to such Lender, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or successor form, certifying that such Lender is a United States Person (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) and that such Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from United States backup withholding tax.
          3.12 Indemnity. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold each such Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (other than through such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction)) as a consequence of (a) any default by any of the Borrowers in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Parent Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) any default by any of the Borrowers in making any prepayment or conversion of Eurocurrency Loans after the Parent Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment (or the purchase pursuant to subsection 3.13(d)(i)) of Eurocurrency Loans or the conversion of Eurocurrency Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or converted, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or conversion or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurocurrency Loans, as applicable, provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under the indemnity contained in this subsection 3.12, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Parent Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in clause (a), (b) or (c) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the loss or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof and (z) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks indemnification hereunder and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any indemnification pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

          3.13 Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts. (a) Upon the request, and at the expense of the Borrowers, each Lender to which the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount pursuant to subsection 3.10 or 3.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford the Parent Borrower the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with the Parent Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender shall not be required to afford the Parent Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrowers shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender their joint and several obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrowers shall reimburse such Lender for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with the Parent Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender shall be required to afford the Parent Borrower the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with the Parent Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Taxes, if such Lender in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.
          (b) If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than pursuant to paragraph (c) below) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Borrowers to become obligated to pay any additional amount under subsection 3.10 or 3.11, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.
          (c) If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of time or giving of notice, result in the payment of any additional amount to any Lender by the Borrowers pursuant to subsection 3.10 or 3.11, such Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall take such steps as may reasonably be available to it to mitigate the effects of such condition or event (which shall include efforts to rebook the Term Loans held by such Lender at another lending office, or through another branch or an affiliate, of such Lender); provided that such Lender shall not be required to take any step that, in its reasonable judgment, would be materially disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur additional costs (unless the Borrowers agree to reimburse such Lender for the reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof).
          (d) If the Borrowers shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to subsection 3.10 or 3.11 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for payments under subsection 3.10 or 3.11, the Parent Borrower shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains, (i) with the assistance of the Administrative Agent, to seek one or more substitute Lenders reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to purchase the affected Term Loan, in whole or in part, at an aggregate price no less than such Term Loan’s principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon at least four Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, to prepay the affected Term Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, except as otherwise provided in subsections 3.6(a) and 3.12. In the case of the substitution of a Lender, the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to subsection 10.6(b) to effect the assignment of rights to, and the assumption of obligations by, the

-46-


 

substitute Lender; provided that any fees required to be paid by subsection 10.6(b) in connection with such assignment shall be paid by such Borrowers or the substitute Lender. In the case of a prepayment of an affected Term Loan, the amount specified in the notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with any accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. In the case of each of the substitution of a Lender and of the prepayment of an affected Term Loan, the Parent Borrower shall first pay the affected Lender any additional amounts owing under subsections 3.10 and 3.11 (as well as any commitment fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender, including any amounts under this subsection 3.13) prior to such substitution or prepayment.
          (e) If any Agent or any Lender receives a refund directly attributable to taxes for which any of the Parent Borrowers have made additional payments pursuant to subsection 3.10(a) or 3.11(a), such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall promptly pay such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto received from the relevant taxing authority, but net of any reasonable cost incurred in connection therewith) to such Borrower; provided, however, that each Borrower agrees promptly to return such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto due to the relevant taxing authority) (free of all Non-Excluded Taxes) to such Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, upon receipt of a notice that such refund is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority.
          (f) The obligations of any Agent, Lender or Participant under this subsection 3.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all amounts payable hereunder.
          Section 4. Representations and Warranties. To induce the Administrative Agent and each Lender to make the Term Loans requested to be made by it on the Closing Date and on each Borrowing Date thereafter, each Credit Agreement Party, with respect to itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby represents and warrants, on the Closing Date, in each case after giving effect to the Transaction, and on every Borrowing Date thereafter to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:
          4.1 Financial Condition. (a) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Recapitalized Business (it being understood that the reporting entity is RSC) as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005 and the consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Recapitalized Business (it being understood that the reporting entity is RSC) for the fiscal years ended as of December 31, 2003, December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005, reported on by and accompanied by unqualified reports from KPMG LLP, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition as at such date, and the consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended, of the Recapitalized Business. All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered thereby (except as approved by a Responsible Officer and disclosed in any such schedules and notes). During the period from December 31, 2005 to and including the Closing Date, except as provided in the Recapitalization Agreement and in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, there has been no sale, transfer or other disposition by the Recapitalized Business of any material part of the business or property of the Recapitalized Business, and no purchase or other acquisition by it of any business or property (including any

-47-


 

Capital Stock of any other Person) material in relation to the consolidated financial condition of the Recapitalized Business which is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or in the notes thereto and has not otherwise been disclosed in writing to the Lenders on or prior to the Closing Date.
          (b) The pro forma balance sheet and statements of operations of the Recapitalized Business and its consolidated Subsidiaries, copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, are the balance sheet and statements of operations of the Recapitalized Business and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005, adjusted to give effect (as if such events had occurred on such date for the purposes of the balance sheet and on January 1, 2005 for the purposes of the statement of operations) to the consummation of the Transaction.
          4.2 No Change; Solvent. Since December 31, 2005, except as and to the extent disclosed on Schedule 4.2, (a) there has been no development or event relating to or affecting Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries which has had or could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (after giving effect to the consummation of the Transaction) and (b) except in connection with the Transaction or as otherwise permitted under this Agreement and each other Loan Document, no dividends or other distributions have been declared, paid or made upon the Capital Stock of Holdings, nor has any of the Capital Stock of Holdings been redeemed, retired, purchased or otherwise acquired for value by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the consummation of the Transaction, each Loan Party is Solvent.
          4.3 Corporate Existence. Each of the Loan Parties (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, (b) has the corporate, limited liability company or partnership power and authority, as the case may be, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, except to the extent that the failure to have such legal right could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited liability company or partnership and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
          4.4 Corporate Power; Authorization; Consents; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the corporate, limited liability company or partnership power and authority, as the case may be, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of each of the Borrowers, to incur Term Loans hereunder, and each such Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate, limited liability company or partnership action, as the case may be, to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of each of the Borrowers, to authorize the incurrence of Term Loans by it, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Notes. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other similar act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required to be obtained or made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents to which it is a party or, in the case of each of the

-48-


 

Borrowers, with the incurrence of Term Loans by it, if any, hereunder, except for (a) consents, authorizations, notices and filings described in Schedule 4.4, all of which have been obtained or made prior to the Closing Date, (b) filings to perfect the Liens created by the Security Documents, (c) filings pursuant to the Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, as amended (31 U.S.C. § 3727 et seq.), in respect of accounts of Holdings and its Subsidiaries the obligor in respect of which is the United States of America or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof and (d) consents, authorizations, notices and filings which the failure to obtain or make could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Credit Agreement Party, and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party will be duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Loan Party. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Agreement Party and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party when executed and delivered will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, in each case enforceable against such Credit Agreement Party or such other Loan Party, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).
          4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by any of the Loan Parties, the incurrence of Term Loans hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof (a) will not violate any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of such Loan Party in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (b) will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than the Liens permitted by subsection 7.2) on any of its properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation.
          4.6 No Material Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower, threatened by or against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) which is so pending or threatened at any time on or prior to the Closing Date and relates to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or (b) which could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
          4.7 No Default. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect which could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
          4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each of Holdings and its Subsidiaries has good title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its material real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other material property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien, except for Liens permitted by subsection 7.2. Schedule 4.8 sets forth all material real properties owned in fee or leased by the Loan Parties as of the Closing Date.

-49-


 

          4.9 Intellectual Property. The Parent Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries owns, or has the legal right to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for each of them to conduct its business as currently conducted except for those the failure to own or have such legal right to use could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as provided on Schedule 4.9, no claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does the Parent Borrower know of any such claim, and, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower, the use of such Intellectual Property by the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements which in the aggregate, could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
          4.10 Compliance With Requirements of Law and Contractual Obligations.

Each Lender agrees that, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or given to the Agents for the account of or with copies for the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of Holdings, any Borrower or any other Loan Party which may come into the possession of the Agents, the Lead Arrangers or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.
          9.4 Reliance by the Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected (and shall have no liability to any Person) in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Credit Agreement Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by the each Agent. The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with subsection 10.6 and all actions required by such subsection in connection with such transfer shall have been taken. Any request, authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case

-92-


 

may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor. Each Agent shall be fully justified as between itself and the Lenders in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders and/or such other requisite percentage of the Lenders as is required pursuant to subsection 10.1(a) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and any Notes and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders and/or such other requisite percentage of the Lenders as is required pursuant to subsection 10.1(a), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Term Loans.
          9.5 Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or any Credit Agreement Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action reasonably promptly with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders and/or such other requisite percentage of the Lenders as is required pursuant to subsection 10.1(a); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.
          9.6 Acknowledgements and Representations by Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents or the Lead Arrangers nor any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or any Lead Arranger hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Credit Agreement Party or any other Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent or such Lead Arranger to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents, the Lead Arrangers and each of the Loan Parties that, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, the Lead Arrangers or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will make, its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, it has made its own decision to make its Term Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement and it will make its own decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the Agents nor any Lead Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Term Loans or at any time or times thereafter. Each Lender represents to each other party hereto that it is a bank, savings and loan association or other similar savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial institution which makes or acquires commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business, that it is participating hereunder as a Lender for such commercial

-93-


 

purposes, and that it has the knowledge and experience to be and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of being a Lender hereunder. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees to comply with the provisions of subsection 10.6 applicable to the Lenders hereunder.
          9.7 Indemnification. (a) The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) (to the extent not reimbursed by any Borrower or any other Loan Party and without limiting the joint and several obligations of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders (determined as if there were no Defaulting Lenders), in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this subsection, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Term Loans and/or all other amounts payable hereunder) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent arising from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction). The agreements in this subsection shall survive the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
          (b) Any Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document (except actions expressly required to be taken by it hereunder or under the Loan Documents) unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
          (c) The agreements in this subsection 9.7 shall survive the payment of all Borrower Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and Guarantor Obligations.
          9.8 The Administrative Agent and Lead Arrangers in their Individual Capacities. Each Agent, the Lead Arrangers and their Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Agreement Party or any other Loan Party as though such Agent and the Lead Arrangers were not an Agent or the Lead Arrangers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to Term Loans made or renewed by them and any Note issued to them, each Agent and the Lead Arrangers shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though they were not an Agent or a Lead Arranger, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Agents and the Lead Arrangers in their individual capacities.
          9.9 Collateral Matters. (a) Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note

-94-


 

by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, and the exercise by the Agents or the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.
          (b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in each case at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by such Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Term Loan Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the obligations under the Loan Documents at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than a Loan Party) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with subsection 7.5, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater amount, to the extent required by subsection 10.1(a)) or (iv) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this subsection 9.9.
          (c) No Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to any Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agents in this subsection 9.9 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, each Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given such Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as Lender and that no Agent shall have any duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction).
          (d) The Collateral Agent may, and hereby does, appoint the Administrative Agent as its agent for the purposes of holding any Collateral and/or perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein and for the purpose of taking such other action with respect to the collateral as such Agents may from time to time agree.
          9.10 Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its respective functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and the Parent Borrower. Any such resignation by an Administrative Agent hereunder shall also constitute its resignation as Collateral Agent, if applicable. Such resignation shall take effect upon the

-95-


 

appointment of a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, if applicable, pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.
          (a) Upon any such notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, if applicable, hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Parent Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that the Parent Borrower’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists).
          (b) If a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, if applicable, shall not have been so appointed within such 30 day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Parent Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that the Parent Borrower’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, if applicable, who shall serve as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, if applicable, hereunder or thereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, if applicable, as provided above.
          (c) If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 15th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.
          (d) Upon a resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection 9.10, the Administrative Agent shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the provisions of this Section 9 (and the analogous provisions of the other Loan Documents) shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Administrative Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as the Administrative Agent.
          9.11 Syndication Agent and Lead Arrangers. Neither the Syndication Agent, nor any of the entities identified as joint bookrunners and joint lead arrangers pursuant to the definition of Lead Arranger contained herein, shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its capacity as such.
          9.12 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, each Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax, and in no event shall such Agent be required to be responsible for or pay any additional amount with respect to any such withholding. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that any Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify such Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from or reduction of withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify such Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly

-96-


 

or indirectly, by such Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred.
          Section 10. Miscellaneous.
          10.1 Amendments and Waivers. (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived except in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 10.1. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, from time to time, (x) enter into with the respective Loan Parties hereto or thereto, as the case may be, written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or to the other Loan Documents or changing, in any manner the rights or obligations of the Lenders or the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (y) waive at any Loan Party’s request, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall:
     (i) reduce or forgive the amount or extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Term Loan or of any scheduled installment thereof or reduce the stated rate of any interest, commission or fee payable hereunder (other than as a result of (i) any waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates or (ii) an amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Term Loan Commitment or change the currency in which any Term Loan is payable, in each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate Term Loan Commitment of all Lenders shall not constitute an increase of the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Term Loan Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase in the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender);
     (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this subsection 10.1(a) or reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, or consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Agreement Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (other than pursuant to subsection 7.4 or 10.6(a)), in each case without the written consent of all the Lenders;
     (iii) release any Guarantor under any Security Document, or, in the aggregate (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions), all or substantially all of the Collateral without the consent of all of the Lenders, except as expressly permitted hereby or by any Security Document (as such documents are in effect on the date hereof or, if later, the date of execution and delivery thereof in accordance with the terms hereof);

-97-


 

     (iv) require any Lender to make Term Loans having an Interest Period of longer than six months without the consent of such Lender;
     (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 without the written consent of the then Administrative Agent and of any Lead Arranger affected thereby; or
     (vi) amend, modify or waive the order of application of payments set forth in subsections 3.4(d) or 3.8(a) hereof, or Section 4 of the Intercreditor Agreement in each case without the consent of the Supermajority Lenders;
provided, further, that, notwithstanding and in addition to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, release the Lien on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $10,000,000 in any fiscal year without the consent of any Lender.
          (b) Any waiver and any amendment, supplement or modification pursuant to this subsection 10.1 shall apply to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agent and all future holders of the Term Loans. In the case of any waiver, each of the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.
          (c) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Credit Agreement Parties (x) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the existing Facilities and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof, (y) to include, as appropriate, the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders or of the Lenders of each Tranche hereunder and (z) to provide class protection for any additional credit facilities in a manner consistent with those provided the original Facilities pursuant to the provisions of subsection 10.1(a) as originally in effect.
          (d) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document as contemplated by subsection 10.1(a), the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender, as applicable, is required and the consent of the Required Lenders at such time is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each such other Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Parent Borrower may, on ten Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative and the Non-Consenting Lender, replace such Non-Consenting Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Borrowers in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Parent Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to the applicable change, waiver, discharge or termination

-98-


 

of this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Term Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance. In connection with any such replacement under this subsection 10.1(d), if the Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement within a period of time deemed reasonable by the Administrative Agent after the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Term Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender.
          10.2 Notices. (a) All notices, requests, and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered by hand, or three days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice, when received, or, in the case of delivery by a nationally recognized overnight courier, when received, addressed as follows in the case of any Credit Agreement Party, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and as set forth in Schedule A in the case of the other parties hereto, or to such other address as may be hereafter notified by the respective parties hereto and any future holders of the Term Loans:

     (A) the Parent Borrower, provided that no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under subsection 8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; provided, further, that, unless an Event of Default under subsection 8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing, if any Lender assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one of its affiliates in connection with or in contemplation of the sale or other disposition of its interest in such affiliate, the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent shall be required for such assignment; and

-102-


 

Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under subsection 8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of assignments by each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;
     (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that for concurrent assignments to two or more Approved Funds such assignment fee shall only be required to be paid once in respect of and at the time of such assignments;
     (C) no assignments may be made to any entities identified by the Sponsors to the Administrative Agent in a separate writing prior to the date hereof; and
     (D) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.
     (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (and bound by any related obligations under) subsections 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and 10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this subsection.
     (iv) The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrowers’ agent, solely for purposes of this subsection 10.6, to maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Term Loan Commitments of, and interest and principal amount of the Term Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent

-103-


 

Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
     (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b)(ii)(B) of this subsection and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b)(i) of this subsection, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance, record the information contained therein in the Register and give prompt notice of such assignment and recordation to the Parent Borrower. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
     (vi) On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to this subsection 10.6(b), the assigning Lender shall surrender any outstanding Notes held by it all or a portion of which are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower marked “cancelled”.
          Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to this subsection 10.6(b) would be entitled to receive any greater payment under subsection 3.10, 3.11 or 10.5 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive as of such date under such subsections with respect to the rights assigned, shall be entitled to receive such greater payments unless the Parent Borrower has expressly consented in writing to waive the benefit of this provision at the time of such assignment.
          (c) (i) Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Loan Commitments and the Term Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Term Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (D) the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of subsection 10.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this subsection, the Borrowers jointly and severally agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) subsections 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and 10.5 to the same extent as if it were a

-104-


 

Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this subsection. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant shall be subject to subsection 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender.
          (i) No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under subsection 3.10, 3.11 or 10.5 than it would have been obligated to make in the absence of any participation, unless the sale of such participation is made with the prior written consent of the Parent Borrower and the Parent Borrower expressly waives the benefit of this provision at the time of such participation. Any Participant that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall not be entitled to the benefits of subsection 3.11 unless such Participant complies with subsection 3.11(b) and provides the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender that granted such participation.
          (d) Any Lender, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this subsection shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute (by foreclosure or otherwise) any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
          (e) No assignment or participation made or purported to be made to any Assignee or Participant shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Parent Borrower if it would require the Parent Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Term Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any Assignee or Participant to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment or participation is otherwise in accordance with applicable law.
          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Term Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in subsection 10.6(b). Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state, federal or provincial bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. Each such indemnifying Lender shall pay in full any claim received from the Parent Borrower pursuant to this subsection 10.6(f) within 30 Business Days of receipt of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower specifying in reasonable detail the cause and amount of the loss, cost, damage or

-105-


 

expense in respect of which the claim is being asserted, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Without limiting the indemnification obligations of any indemnifying Lender pursuant to this subsection 10.6(f), in the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate the Parent Borrower for such claim, any Term Loans held by the relevant Conduit Lender shall, if requested by the Parent Borrower, be assigned promptly to the Lender that administers the Conduit Lender and the designation of such Conduit Lender shall be void.
          (g) If the Parent Borrower wishes to replace the Term Loans or Term Loan Commitments under any Tranche with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders under such Tranche, instead of prepaying the Term Loans or reducing or terminating the Term Loan Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Tranche to assign such Term Loans or Term Loan Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with subsection 10.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, all Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Tranche in the same manner as would be required if such Term Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Term Loan Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Parent Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to subsection 3.12. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Tranche shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Term Loans or Term Loan Commitments under such Tranche pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.
          10.7 Adjustments; Set-off; Calculations; Computations. (a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Term Loans owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in subsection 8(f), or otherwise (except pursuant to subsection 3.4, 3.13(d) or 10.6)), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Term Loans owing to it, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders an interest (by participation, assignment or otherwise) in such portion of each such other Lender’s Term Loans owing to it, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the other Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
          (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under subsection 8(a) to set-off and appropriate and apply against any amount then due and payable under subsection 8(a) by any Borrower any and all

-106-


 

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 Lender or any Affiliate branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
          10.8 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 or other electronic transmission (i.e. pdf)), and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
          10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
          10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of each of the Loan Parties party hereto, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any of the Loan Parties party hereto, any Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

     (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 sue in any other jurisdiction; and
     (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this subsection any consequential or punitive damages.
          10.13 Acknowledgements. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that:
     (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
     (b) no Agent nor any Lead Arranger or any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor; and

Each Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential any information (a) provided to it by or on behalf of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Documents or (b) obtained by such Lender based on a review of the books and records of Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing any such information (i) to any Agent, any Lead Arranger or any other Lender, (ii) to any Transferee, or prospective Transferee or any creditor or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations which agrees to comply with the provisions of this subsection pursuant to a written instrument (or electronically recorded customary agreement from any Person listed above in this clause (ii), in respect to any electronic information (whether posted or otherwise distributed on Intralinks or any other electronic distribution system)) for the benefit of the Parent Borrower (it being understood that each relevant Lender shall be solely responsible for obtaining such instrument (or such electronically recorded agreement)), (iii) to its affiliates and

          10.20 Nature of Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed by the various parties to this Agreement that all Obligations to repay principal of, interest on, and all other amounts with respect to Term Loans and each Note, and all other Obligations arising hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which the Borrowers are a party (including all fees, indemnities, taxes and other Obligations in connection therewith) shall constitute the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers. In addition to the direct (and joint and several) obligations of the Borrowers with respect to Obligations as described above, all such Obligations shall be guaranteed pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.
          (a) The obligations of each Borrower with respect to the Obligations are independent of the obligations of each other Borrower or any Guarantor under its guaranty of such Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Borrower, whether or not any other Borrower or any such Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. Each Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to any Borrower shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Borrower.
          (b) Each of the Borrowers authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:
     (i) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any other Borrower or any Guarantor or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;
     (ii) release or substitute any other Borrower, endorsers, Guarantors or other obligors;
     (iii) settle or compromise any of the Obligations of any other Borrower or any other Loan Party, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of any Borrower to its creditors other than the Lenders;
     (iv) apply any sums paid by any other Borrower or any other Person, howsoever realized or otherwise received to or for the account of such Borrower to any liability or liabilities of such other Borrower or other Person regardless of what liability or liabilities of such other Borrower or other Person remain unpaid; and/or
     (v) consent to or waive any breach of, or act, omission or default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein, or otherwise, by any other Borrower or any other Person.
          (c) It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers,

-111-


 

directors, members, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall constitute the joint and several obligations of the Borrowers hereunder.
          (d) No Borrower shall have any rights of contribution or subrogation with respect to any other Borrower as a result of payments made by it hereunder, in each case unless and until the Total Term Loan Commitment has been terminated and all Obligations have been paid in full.
          Section 11. Holdings Guaranty.
          11.1 Guaranty. (a) In order to induce the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and to induce the other Guaranteed Creditors to enter into Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Permitted Hedging Arrangements and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by Holdings from the proceeds of the Term Loans, and the entering into of such Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Permitted Hedging Arrangements, Holdings hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: Holdings hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Guarantor Obligations of the Borrowers to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Guarantor Obligations of the Borrowers to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, Holdings, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Guaranteed Creditors on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Guarantor Obligations. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantor Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including any Borrower), then and in such event Holdings agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be binding upon Holdings, notwithstanding any revocation of the guarantee contained in this Section 11 or other instrument evidencing any liability of any Borrower, and Holdings shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.
          (b) The guarantee contained in this Section 11 shall remain in full force and effect until the first date on which all the Term Loans, the obligations of Holdings under the guarantee contained in this Section 11 then due and owing shall have been satisfied by payment in full in cash and any Term Loan Commitment shall have been terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement any of the Borrowers may be free from any obligations under the Loan Documents.
          11.2 Bankruptcy. Additionally, Holdings unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Guarantor Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors

-112-


 

whether or not due or payable by any Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in subsection 8.1(f), and irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Guaranteed Creditors on demand, in lawful money of the United States.
          11.3 Nature of Liability. The liability of Holdings hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional, exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Guarantor Obligations, whether executed by any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of Holdings hereunder shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by any Borrower or by any other party (other than a direction that results in the payment in full of the Guarantor Obligations), or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guarantor Obligations, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations to the extent of such payment, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Borrower, or (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Guarantor Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to any Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, or (f) any action or inaction by the Guaranteed Creditors as contemplated in subsection 11.5, or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or enforceability of all or any part of the Guarantor Obligations or of any security therefor.
          11.4 Independent Obligation. The obligations of Holdings hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or any Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Holdings whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or any Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or any Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to such Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to Holdings.
          11.5 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Holdings shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against Holdings and without notice to or further assent by Holdings, any demand for payment of any of the Guarantor Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Creditor and any of the Guarantor Obligations continued, and the Guarantor Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, waived, modified, accelerated, compromised, subordinated, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, waived, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or the applicable Lender(s), as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time,

-113-


 

and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor for the payment of any of the Guarantor Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. None of the Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent and each other Guaranteed Creditor shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for any of the Guarantor Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 11 or any property subject thereto, except to the extent required by applicable law.
          11.6 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Guarantor Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.
          11.7 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by Holdings hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of Holdings by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor, Holdings shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor for the payment of the Guarantor Obligations, nor shall Holdings seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by Holdings hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors by the Borrowers on account of the Guarantor Obligations are paid in full in cash and all Term Loan Commitments have been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to Holdings on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guarantor Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash or any of the Term Loan Commitments shall remain in effect, such amount shall be held by Holdings in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditor, segregated from other funds of Holdings, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by Holdings, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by Holdings (duly indorsed by Holdings to the Administrative Agent if required), to be held as collateral security for all of the Guarantor Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) guaranteed by Holdings and may be applied against any Guarantor Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.
          11.8 Waiver. (a) Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations to the extent of such payment), based on or arising out of the disability of any Borrower, Holdings, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Guarantor Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower (other than payment of the Guarantor Obligations to the extent of such payment). Subject to the other terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, the Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed

-114-


 

Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against any Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Holdings hereunder except to the extent the Guarantor Obligations have been paid. Holdings waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Holdings against any Borrower or any other party or any security.
          (b) Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 11, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guarantor Obligations. Holdings assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantor Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which Holdings assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise Holdings of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.
          11.9 Payments. All payments made by Holdings pursuant to this sub Section 11 shall be made in Dollars and will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and shall be subject to the provisions of subsections 3.8 and 3.11.
          11.10 Maximum Liability. It is the desire and intent of Holdings and the Guaranteed Creditors that the guarantee contained in this Section 11 shall be enforced against Holdings to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of Holdings under the guarantee contained in this Section 11 shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of Holdings’ obligations under the guarantee contained in this Section 11 shall be deemed to be reduced and Holdings shall pay the maximum amount of the Guarantor Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.

Schedule 4.9
to Credit Agreement
Schedule 4.9: Intellectual Property Claims
1.   Certain agreements with third parties require the consent of the other party to a change of ownership. In addition, unless RSC obtains a waiver, its development license agreement with Wynne Systems, Inc. to implement proprietary changes to our enterprise resource management software system can be terminated on six month’s notice as a result of the change in ownership. If RSC fails to obtain any required consent or waiver, the applicable third parties, including Wynne Systems, Inc. could seek to terminate their agreements with RSC, and, as a result, RSC’s ability to conduct its business could be impaired until RSC is able to enter into replacement agreements, which could result in a Material Adverse Effect on RSC’s results of operations or financial condition; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that as of the Closing Date RSC believes no claim arising from failure to obtain such a consent or waiver from Wynn Systems, Inc. (i) has been filed or (ii) would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          2.1 Subordination; Etc. Notwithstanding the date, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Second-Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral or of any Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, or any applicable law or the Second-Lien Loan Documents or any other circumstance whatsoever (including any non-perfection of any Lien purporting to secure the First-Lien Obligations and/or Second-Lien Obligations), the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents) hereby agrees that: (a) any Lien on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditors or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all respects and prior to any Lien on the Collateral securing any of the Second-Lien Obligations; and (b) any Lien on the Collateral now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, any


 

Page 11

Second-Lien Creditors or any agent or trustee therefor regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations. All Liens on the Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on the Collateral securing any Second-Lien Obligations for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any First-Lien Obligations are subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any other Grantor or any other Person. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that the First-Lien Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Second-Lien Obligations (and the security therefor).
          2.2 Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Second-Lien Creditor, and U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each First-Lien Creditor, agrees that it shall not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), (i) the validity or enforceability of any Security Document or any Obligation thereunder, (ii) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens, mortgages, assignments and security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents with respect to the First-Lien Obligations or (iii) the relative rights and duties of the holders of the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien Obligations granted and/or established in this Agreement or any other Security Document with respect to such Liens, mortgages, assignments, and security interests; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor to enforce this Agreement, including the priority of the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations as provided in Section 3.1 hereof.
          2.3 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, the parties hereto agree that neither Holdings nor the Parent Borrower shall, and shall not permit any other Grantor to, grant or permit any additional Liens, or take any action to perfect any additional Liens, on any asset or property to secure any Second-Lien Obligation unless it has also granted a Lien on such asset or property to secure the First-Lien Obligations and has taken all actions to perfect such Liens. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and/or the other First-Lien Creditors, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents), agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2 hereof.
          2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that the Second-Lien Collateral not be more expansive than the First-Lien Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.9 hereof, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:
          (i) upon request by either First-Lien Collateral Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the Second-Lien Collateral and the steps taken to


 

Page 12

perfect the Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the Second-Lien Loan Documents; and
          (ii) that the guarantees for the First-Lien Obligations and the Second-Lien Obligations shall be substantially in the same form.
          SECTION 3. Enforcement.
          3.1 Exercise of Remedies. (a) So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor: (i) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right under any lockbox agreement, control account agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor is a party) or institute or commence, or join with any Person in commencing, any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure, enforcement, collection or execution and any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), and will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by either First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor or any other exercise by either First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor, of any rights and remedies relating to the Collateral under the First-Lien Loan Documents or otherwise, or object to the forbearance by the either First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Collateral; and (ii) the First-Lien Collateral Agents shall have the exclusive right, and the Required First-Lien Creditors shall have the exclusive right to instruct the First-Lien Collateral Agents, to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including set-off and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, all as though the Second-Lien Obligations did not exist; provided, that (A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent may file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second-Lien Obligations, (B) the Second-Lien Collateral Agent may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on the Collateral securing the First-Lien Obligations, or the rights of the First-Lien Collateral Agents or the other First-Lien Creditors to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to preserve or protect their Lien on the Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (C) the Second-Lien Creditors shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleading in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second-Lien Creditors, including any claim secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (D) the Second-Lien Creditors may file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and (E) the Second-Lien Creditors may vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement


 

Page 13

with respect to the Second-Lien Obligations and the Collateral. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First-Lien Collateral Agents and the other First-Lien Creditors may enforce the provisions of the First-Lien Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.
          (b) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff) with respect to any Collateral, unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the sole right of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors with respect to the Collateral is to hold a Lien on the Collateral pursuant to the Second-Lien Security Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations has occurred in accordance with the terms of the Second-Lien Loan Documents and applicable law.
          (c) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents), (i) agrees that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors will not take any action that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit any exercise of remedies under the First-Lien Loan Documents, including any collection, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, or that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Lien or Security Document or subordinate the priority of the First-Lien Obligations to the Second-Lien Obligations or grant the Liens securing the Second-Lien Obligations equal ranking to the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations and (ii) hereby waives any and all rights it or the Second-Lien Creditors may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise (whether arising under the UCC or under any other law) to object to the manner in which any First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors seek to enforce or collect the First-Lien Obligations or the Liens granted in any of the First-Lien Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of any First-Lien Collateral Agent or First-Lien Creditors is adverse to the interest of the Second-Lien Creditors.
          (d) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second-Lien Security Documents or any other Second-Lien Loan Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of any First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First-Lien Loan Documents.
          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in preceding clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 3.1, at any time while a payment default exists with respect to the Second-Lien Obligations following the final maturity of the Second-Lien Obligations, or the acceleration by the relevant Second-Lien Creditors of the maturity of all then outstanding Second-Lien


 

Page 14

Obligations, and in either case so long as 180 days have elapsed after notice thereof (and requesting that enforcement action be taken with respect to the Collateral) has been received by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and so long as the respective payment default shall not have been cured or waived (or the respective acceleration rescinded), the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, and the other Second-Lien Creditors may, but only if the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the First-Lien Creditors are not pursuing enforcement preceding with respect to the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner (with any determination of which Collateral to proceed against, and in what order, to be made by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or such First-Lien Creditors in their reasonable judgment), enforce the Liens on Collateral granted pursuant to the Second-Lien Security Documents, provided that (x) any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or such other Second-Lien Creditor, as the case may be, in connection with the enforcement of such Lien shall be applied in accordance with Section 4 hereof and (y) the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditors may at any time take over such enforcement proceedings, provided that the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or such First-Lien Creditors, as the case may be, pursues enforcement proceedings with respect to the Collateral in a commercially reasonably manner, with any determination of which Collateral to proceed against, and in what order, to be made by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or such First-Lien Creditors in their reasonable judgment, and provided further that the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or Second-Lien Creditors, as the case may be, shall only be able to recoup (from amounts realized by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditors) in any enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral (whether initiated by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or First-Lien Creditors or taken over by them as contemplated above) any expenses incurred by them in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 4 hereof.
          SECTION 4. Payments.
          4.1 Application of Proceeds. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, any proceeds of any Collateral pursuant to the enforcement of any Security Document or the exercise of any remedial provision thereunder, together with all other proceeds received by any Creditor (including all funds received in respect of post-petition interest or fees and expenses) as a result of any such enforcement or the exercise of any such remedial provision or as a result of any distribution of or in respect of any Collateral (whether or not expressly characterized as such) upon or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Grantor, or the application of any Collateral (or proceeds thereof) to the payment thereof or any distribution of Collateral (or proceeds thereof) upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Grantor, shall be applied by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent to the First-Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant First-Lien Security Document. Upon the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent any proceeds of Collateral held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, to be applied by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent to the Second-Lien Obligations in such order as specified in the Second-Lien Security Documents.
          4.2 Payments Over. Until such time as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, any Collateral or proceeds thereof (together with assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3 hereof) (or any distribution in


 

Page 15

respect of the Collateral, whether or not expressly characterized as such) received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) relating to the Collateral or otherwise that is inconsistent with this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any such other Second-Lien Creditors. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until such time as this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.
          SECTION 5. Other Agreements.
          5.1 Releases.
          (a) If, in connection with:
               (i) the exercise of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral provided for in Section 3.1 hereof, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any such Collateral (any of the foregoing, a “Remedial Action”);
               (ii) any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (any of the foregoing, a “Disposition”) of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First-Lien Loan Documents (whether or not an “event of default” thereunder or under any Second-Lien Loan Document has occurred and is continuing); or
               (iii) any agreement (not contravening the First-Lien Loan Documents) between the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor (x) to release the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent’s Lien on any portion of the Collateral (other than in connection with, or in anticipation of, a Discharge of First-Lien Credit Agreement Obligations or a Discharge of First-Lien Obligations) or (y) to release any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First-Lien Obligations (other than in connection with, or in anticipation of, a Discharge of First-Lien Credit Agreement Obligations or a Discharge of First-Lien Obligations);
there occurs the release by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, acting on its own or at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors, of any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral, or of any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First-Lien Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and for the benefit of the Second-Lien Creditors, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Second-Lien Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released, and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself or on behalf of any such Second-Lien Creditors, promptly shall execute and deliver to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or such Grantor may request to effectively confirm such release; provided however that if an “event of default” then exists under the Second-Lien Credit Agreement and the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations occurs concurrently with any such release, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors) shall be entitled to receive the residual cash or cash


 

Page 16

equivalents (if any) remaining after giving effect to such release and the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations.
          (b) Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations occurs, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, 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 the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or such other Second-Lien Creditor or in the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time in the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, 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 Section 5.1, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.
          (c) If, prior to the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, a subordination of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent’s Lien on any Collateral is permitted (or in good faith believed by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent to be permitted) under the First-Lien Credit Agreement to another Lien permitted under the First-Lien Credit Agreement (a “Priority Lien”), then the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent is authorized to execute and deliver a subordination agreement with respect thereto in form and substance satisfactory to it, and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second-Lien Creditors, shall promptly execute and deliver to such First-Lien Collateral Agent or the relevant Grantor an identical subordination agreement subordinating the Liens of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second-Lien Creditors to such Priority Lien.
          5.2 Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors) shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First-Lien Loan Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First-Lien Security Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) in respect to the Collateral shall be paid to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors pursuant to the terms of the First-Lien Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of commitments, letters of credit and Hedging Agreements) and, after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second-Lien Creditors to the extent required under the Second-Lien Security Documents and then, to the extent no Second-Lien Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2 of this Agreement.


 

Page 17

          5.3 Amendments to First-Lien Loan Documents and Second-Lien Loan Documents.
          (a) The First-Lien Loan Documents may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the First-Lien Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second-Lien Creditors, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing of the First-Lien Credit Agreement shall not, without the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent increase the maximum aggregate principal of Loans and stated amount of Letters of Credit thereunder to an amount in excess of the Cap Amount.
          (b) Without the prior written consent of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors), no Second-Lien Loan Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Second-Lien Loan Document, would contravene the provisions of this Agreement or any First-Lien Loan Document. Each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and each other Guarantor agrees that each Second-Lien Security Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent):
“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of November 27, 2006 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among RSC Holdings II, LLC, RSC Holdings III, LLC, Rental Service Corporation, each other Grantor party thereto from time to time, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (“DBNY”), as U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and DBNY, as Second-Lien Collateral Agent and certain other persons party or that may become party thereto from time to time. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”
In addition, each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and each other Grantor agrees that each Second-Lien Security Document covering any Collateral shall contain such other language as the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Second-Lien Security Document to the First-Lien Security Document covering such Collateral.
          (c) In the event the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors and the relevant Grantor(s) enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First-Lien Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First-Lien Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, the other First-Lien Creditors, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the


 

Page 18

Second-Lien Credit Agreement and the Comparable Second-Lien Security Document without the consent of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second-Lien Creditors and without any action by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor, provided, that (A) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of (i) removing assets subject to the Lien of the Second-Lien Security Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 5.1 of this Agreement, (ii) imposing additional duties on the Second-Lien Collateral Agent without its consent, or (iii) permitting other liens on the Collateral not permitted under the terms of the Second-Lien Loan Documents or Section 6 hereof and (B) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (although the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect the effectiveness of any such amendment, waiver or consent).
          5.4 Rights As Unsecured Creditors. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor that has guaranteed the Second-Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second-Lien Loan Documents and applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors of the required payments of interest and principal on the Second-Lien Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. In the event the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing First-Lien Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second-Lien Obligations are so subordinated to such First-Lien Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First-Lien Collateral Agents or the other First-Lien Creditors may have with respect to the First-Lien Collateral.
          5.5 Bailee for Perfection.
          (a) The U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent agrees to acquire and acknowledges it holds the Pledged Collateral or other Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the First-Lien Loan Documents and the Second-Lien Loan Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.
          (b) Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms of the First-Lien Loan Documents as if the Liens of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent under the Second-Lien Security Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent’s rights under the First-Lien Loan Documents.


 

Page 19

          (c) The U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor to assure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.5.
          (d) The U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall not have by reason of the First-Lien Security Documents, the Second-Lien Security Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the First-Lien Creditors, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor.
          (e) Upon the Discharge of the First-Lien Obligations, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) (or proceeds thereof) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, if any Second-Lien Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the Parent Borrower or the relevant Grantor if no First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by such Person in connection with such Person’s obtaining a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
          5.6 When Discharge of First-Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If at any time after the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor immediately thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any First-Lien Loan Document evidencing a First-Lien Obligation which Refinancing is permitted hereby, then such Discharge of First-Lien Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations under such Refinancing First-Lien Loan Document shall automatically be treated as First-Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the first-lien collateral agent under such First-Lien Loan Documents shall be the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice stating that the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor has entered into a new First-Lien Loan Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new agent, such agent, the “New Agent”), the Second-Lien Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor or such New Agent may reasonably request in order to provide to the New Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement.
          5.7 Option to Purchase First-Lien Debt. (a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of remedies by the First-Lien Creditors, any Person or Persons (in each case who must meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant First-Lien Loan Documents) at any time or from time to time designated by the holders of more than 50% in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Second-Lien Obligations as being entitled to exercise all default purchase options as to the Second-Lien Obligations then outstanding (an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment (and shall thereby also assume all


 

Page 20

commitments and duties of the First-Lien Creditors), at any time during the exercise period described in clause (c) below of this Section 5.7, all, but not less than all, of the First-Lien Obligations (other than the First-Lien Obligations of a Defaulting Creditor), including all principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and fees on and all prepayment or acceleration penalties and premiums in respect of all First-Lien Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase; provided that at the time of (and as a condition to) any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7, all commitments pursuant to any then outstanding First-Lien Credit Agreement shall have terminated and all Hedging Agreements constituting First-Lien Documents shall also have been terminated in accordance with their terms. Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7(a) shall be made as follows:
          (1) for (x) a purchase price equal to the sum of (A) in the case of all loans, advances or other similar extensions of credit that constitute First-Lien Obligations (including unreimbursed amounts drawn in respect of Letters of Credit, but excluding the undrawn amount of then outstanding Letters of Credit), the greater of (I) 100% and (II) the then current market-based price, of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (without regard, however, to any acceleration prepayment penalties or premiums other than customary breakage costs), (B) in the case of any Hedging Agreement, the aggregate amount then owing to each counter party in respect of such Hedging Agreement thereunder pursuant to the terms of the respective Hedging Agreement, as the case may be, including without limitation all amounts owing to such counter party as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof plus (C) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts through the date of purchase; and (y) an obligation on the part of the respective Eligible Purchasers (which shall be expressly provided in the assignment documentation described below) to (i) reimburse each issuing lender (or any First-Lien Creditor required to pay same) for all amounts thereafter drawn with respect to any Letters of Credit constituting First-Lien Obligations which remain outstanding after the date of any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.7, together with all facing fees and other amounts which may at any future time be owing to the respective issuing lender with respect to such Letters of Credit, and (ii) pay over to the First-Lien Creditors any amounts recovered by such Eligible Purchasers on account of any acceleration prepayment premiums or penalties with respect to the First-Lien Obligations;
          (2) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) payable in cash on the date of purchase against transfer to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (without recourse and without any representation or warranty whatsoever, whether as to the enforceability of any First-Lien Obligation or the validity, enforceability, perfection, priority or sufficiency of any Lien securing, or guarantee or other supporting obligation for, any First-Lien Obligation or as to any other matter whatsoever, except the representation and warranty that the transferor owns free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances (other than participation interests not prohibited by the First-Lien Credit Agreement, in which case the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) shall be appropriately adjusted so that the Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers do not pay amounts represented by any participation interest which remains in effect), and has the right to convey, whatever claims and interests it may have in respect of the First-Lien Obligations); provided that the purchase price in respect of any


 

Page 21

outstanding Letter of Credit that remains undrawn on the date of purchase shall be payable in cash as and when such Letter of Credit is drawn upon (i) first, from the cash collateral account described in clause (a)(3) below, until the amounts contained therein have been exhausted, and (ii) thereafter, directly by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers;
          (3) with such purchase accompanied by a deposit of cash collateral under the sole dominion and control of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or its designee in an amount equal to 110% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit pursuant to the First-Lien Loan Documents and the aggregate facing and similar fees which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the Letters of Credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), as security for the respective Eligible Purchaser’s or Eligible Purchasers’ obligation to pay amounts as provided in preceding clause (a)(1)(y), it being understood and agreed that (x) at the time any facing or similar fees are owing to an issuer with respect to any Letter of Credit, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent may apply amounts deposited with it as described above to pay same and (y) upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall apply amounts deposited with it as described above to repay the respective unpaid drawing. After giving effect to any payment made as described above in this clause (3), those amounts (if any) then on deposit with the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent as described in this clause (3) which exceed 110% of the sum of the aggregate undrawn amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate facing and similar fees (to the respective issuers) which will accrue thereon through the stated maturity of the then outstanding Letters of Credit (assuming no drawings thereon before stated maturity), shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers (as their interests appear). Furthermore, at such time as all Letters of Credit have been cancelled, expired or been fully drawn, as the case may be, and after all applications described above have been made, any excess cash collateral deposited as described above in this clause (3) (and not previously applied or released as provided above) shall be returned to the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers, as their interests appear;
          (4) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(1)(x) accompanied by a waiver by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors) of all claims arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of exercising the purchase option contemplated by this Section 5.7;
          (5) with all amounts payable to the various First-Lien Creditors in respect of the assignments described above to be distributed to them by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with their respective holdings of the various First-Lien Obligations; and
          (6) with such purchase to be made pursuant to assignment documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and prepared by counsel for, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (with the cost of such counsel to be paid by the Grantors or, if the Grantors do not make such payment, by the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible


 

Page 22

Purchasers, who shall have the right to obtain reimbursement of same from the Grantors); it being understood and agreed that the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and each other First-Lien Creditor shall retain all rights to indemnification as provided in the relevant First-Lien Loan Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.7 (although the security interests securing same shall, following such purchase, be subordinated to the security interest of the Eligible Purchasers making such purchase). The relevant assignment documentation shall also provide that, if for any reason (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment)), the amount of cash collateral held by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or its designee pursuant to preceding clause (a)(3) is at any time less than the full amounts owing with respect to any Letter of Credit described above (including facing and similar fees) then the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers shall promptly reimburse the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (who shall pay the respective issuing bank) the amount of deficiency.
          (b) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.7(a) above shall be exercisable and legally enforceable upon at least seven Business Days’ prior written notice of exercise (which notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and fully binding on the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers) given to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent by an Eligible Purchaser. Neither the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor shall have any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor in connection with any exercise of such purchase option.
          (c) The right to purchase the First-Lien Obligations as described in this Section 5.7 may be exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described in preceding clause (b)) during the period that (1) begins on the date occurring three Business Days after the first to occur of (x) the date of the acceleration of the final maturity of the Loans under the First-Lien Credit Agreement, (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the Loans under the First-Lien Credit Agreement or (z) the occurrence of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to a First-Lien Borrower (other than RSC Canada or any other Borrower that is incorporated in Canada or a province thereof) which constitutes an event of default under the First-Lien Credit Agreement (in each case, so long as the acceleration, failure to pay amounts due at final maturity or such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding constituting an event of default has not been rescinded or cured within such 10 Business Day Period, and so long as any unpaid amounts constituting First-Lien Obligations remain owing); provided that if there is any failure to meet the condition described in the proviso of preceding clause (a) hereof, the aforementioned date shall be extended until the first date upon which such condition is satisfied and (2) ends on the 90th day after the start of the period described in clause (1) above.
          (d) The obligations of the First-Lien Creditors to sell their respective First-Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7 are several and not joint and several. To the extent any First-Lien Creditor (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its First-Lien Obligations under this Section 5.7, nothing in this Section 5.7 shall be deemed to require the First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor to purchase such Defaulting Creditor’s First-Lien Obligations for resale to the holders of Second-Lien Obligations and in all


 

Page 23

cases, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and each First-Lien Creditor complying with the terms of this Section 5.7 shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting Creditor; provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall require any Eligible Purchaser to purchase less than all of the First-Lien Obligations.
          (e) Each Grantor irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.7 (so long as they meet all eligibility standards contained in all relevant First-Lien Loan Documents, other than obtaining the consent of any Grantor to an assignment to the extent required by such First-Lien Loan Documents) for purposes of all First-Lien Loan Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Grantor shall be required.
          SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.
          6.1 Finance and Sale Issues. (a) If the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors) shall desire to permit the use of Cash Collateral (as defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) on which the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other creditor of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor has a Lien or to permit the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor to obtain financing (including on a priming basis), whether from the First-Lien Creditors or any other third party under Section 362, 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law (each, a “Post-Petition Financing”), then the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents), agrees that it will not oppose or raise any objection to or contest, or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting (and each Second-Lien Creditor hereby shall be deemed to have consented to), such use of Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly agreed in writing by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3 hereof) and, to the extent the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such Post-Petition Financing, its Liens on the Collateral shall be deemed to be subordinated, without any further action on the part of any person or entity, to the Liens securing such Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), and the Liens securing the Second-Lien Obligations shall have the same priority with respect to the Collateral relative to the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations as if such Post-Petition Financing had not occurred.
          (b) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents), agrees that it will raise no objection to, oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting), a sale or other disposition of any Collateral free and clear of its Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the First-Lien Creditors have consented to such sale or disposition of such assets.


 

Page 24

          6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents), agrees that none of them shall seek relief, pursuant to Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, from the automatic stay of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or from any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent.
          6.3 Adequate Protection. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, and each other Second-Lien Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of the Second-Lien Loan Documents), agrees that none of them shall (i) oppose, object to or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting) (a) any request by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors for adequate protection in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (or any granting of such request) or (b) any objection by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors claiming a lack of adequate protection or (ii) seek or accept any form of adequate protection under any of Sections 362, 363 and/or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Collateral, except to the extent that, in the sole discretion of the First-Lien Creditors, the receipt by the Second-Lien Creditors of any such adequate protection would not reduce (or would not have the effect of reducing) or adversely affect the adequate protection that the First-Lien Creditors otherwise would be entitled to receive (it being understood that, in any event, (A) no adequate protection shall be requested or accepted by the Second-Lien Creditors or by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent on their behalf unless the First-Lien Creditors are satisfied in their sole discretion with the adequate protection afforded to the First-Lien Creditors, and (B) any such adequate protection is in the form of a replacement Lien on the Grantors’ assets, such Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations (including any replacement Liens granted in respect of the First-Lien Obligations) and any Post-Petition Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second-Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the First-Lien Obligations under this Agreement.
          6.4 No Waiver; Voting Rights. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor from objecting on any basis in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, including the seeking by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor of adequate protection or the assertion by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors of any of its rights and remedies under the Second-Lien Loan Documents or otherwise. In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, neither the Second-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other Second-Lien Creditor shall (i) oppose, object to, or vote against any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement, or join with or support any third party in doing so, to the extent the terms of such plan or disclosure statement comply with the following clause (ii) and are otherwise consistent with the rights of the First-Lien Creditors under this Agreement or (ii) support or vote for any plan of reorganization or disclosure statement of any Grantor unless (x) such plan provides for the payment in full in cash of all First-Lien Obligations (including all post-petition interest, fees and


 

Page 25

expenses as provided in Section 6.6 hereof) on the effective date of such plan of reorganization, or (y) such plan provides on account of the First-Lien Obligations for the retention by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors, of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First-Lien Obligations, and on all proceeds thereof, and such plan also provides that any Liens retained by, or granted to, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent are only on assets or property securing the First-Lien Obligations and shall have the same relative priority with respect to the Collateral or other assets or property, respectively, as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Collateral, and to the extent such plan provides for deferred cash payments, or for the distribution of any other property of any kind or nature, on account of the First-Lien Obligations or the Second-Lien Obligations, such plan provides that any such deferred cash payments or other distributions in respect of the Second-Lien Obligations shall be delivered to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and distributed in accordance with the priorities provided in Section 4.1(a) hereof, it being understood that, in the event that any plan is proposed by any debtor, creditor, or other party in interest in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding that is inconsistent with or purports to alter the provisions of this Agreement (including the provisions of Section 4.1(a) hereof and the priority of application of the proceeds of Collateral set forth therein), the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have been granted, as of the date hereof, an irrevocable power of attorney to vote the claims of the Second-Lien Creditors against any such plan, with such appointment being coupled with an interest, and the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed the “holder” of such claims within the meaning of Section 1126(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as provided in this Section 6, the Second-Lien Creditors shall remain entitled to vote their claims in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.
          6.5 Preference Issues. If any First-Lien Creditor is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor any amount (a “Recovery”), then the First-Lien Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and the First-Lien Creditors shall be entitled to a reinstatement of First-Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. Any amounts received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor on account of the Second-Lien Obligations after the termination of this Agreement shall, in the event of a reinstatement of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5, be held in trust for and paid over to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First-Lien Creditors, for application to the reinstated First-Lien Obligations. This Section 6.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
          6.6 Post-Petition Interest.
          (a) Neither the Second-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other Second-Lien Creditor shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any First-Lien Creditor for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First-Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses. Regardless of whether any such claim for post-petition interest, fees or expenses is allowed or allowable, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement expressly is


 

Page 26

intended to include and does include the “rule of explicitness” in that this Agreement expressly entitles the First-Lien Creditors, and is intended to provide the First-Lien Creditors with the right, to receive payment of all post-petition interest, fees or expenses through distributions made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement even though such interest, fees and expenses are not allowed or allowable against the bankruptcy estate of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor under Section 502(b)(2) or Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or under any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law.
          (b) Without limiting the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the maximum extent permitted by law the parties hereto agree that) the First-Lien Obligations (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the Second-Lien Obligations (and the security therefor).
          6.7 Waiver. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second-Lien Creditors, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any First-Lien Creditor arising out of the election by any First-Lien Creditor of the application to the claims of any First-Lien Creditor of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or out of any Cash Collateral or Post-Petition Financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.
          6.8 Limitations. So long as the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations has not occurred, without the express written consent of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, none of the Second-Lien Creditors shall (or shall join with or support any third party making, opposing, objecting or contesting, as the case may be), in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor, (i) make an election for application to its claims of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) oppose, object to or contest the determination of the extent of any Liens held by any of the First-Lien Creditors or the value of any claims of First-Lien Creditors under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) oppose, object to or contest the payment to the First-Lien Creditors of interest, fees or expenses under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
          SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; Etc.
          7.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First-Lien Creditors under the First-Lien Loan Documents, acknowledges that it and the other First-Lien Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into such First-Lien Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under any First-Lien Document and this Agreement. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, acknowledges that it and the Second-Lien Creditors have, independently and without reliance on the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Creditor, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the Second-Lien Loan Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will

continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the Second-Lien Loan Documents and this Agreement.
          7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First-Lien Creditors under the First-Lien Documents, acknowledges and agrees that each of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Second-Lien Loan Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Second-Lien Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Second-Lien Loan Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, acknowledges and agrees that each of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the First-Lien Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The First-Lien Creditors will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under their respective First-Lien Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors shall have no duty to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the other First-Lien Creditors, and the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors shall have no duty to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any of the other Second-Lien Creditors, to act or refrain from acting in a manner which allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor (including under the First-Lien Documents and the Second-Lien Loan Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof which they may have or be charged with.
          7.3 No Waiver of Lien Priorities.
          (a) No right of the First-Lien Creditors, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or any of them to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any First-Lien Document shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor or by any act or failure to act by any First-Lien Creditor or the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, or by any noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, any of the First-Lien Documents or any of the Second-Lien Loan Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors, or any of them, may have or be otherwise charged with.
          (b) Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph (but subject to the rights of the Parent Borrower, RSC Canada and the other Grantors under the First-Lien Documents), the First-Lien Creditors, the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and any of them may, at any time and from time to time in accordance with the First-Lien Documents and/or applicable law, without the consent of, or notice to, the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, without incurring any liabilities to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor and without impairing or releasing the Lien priorities and


 

Page 28

other benefits provided in this Agreement (even if any right of subrogation or other right or remedy of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditors is affected, impaired or extinguished thereby) do any one or more of the following:
          (i) make loans and advances to any Grantor or issue, guaranty or obtain letters of credit for account of any Grantor or otherwise extend credit to any Grantor, in any amount and on any terms, whether pursuant to a commitment or as a discretionary advance and whether or not any default or event of default or failure of condition is then continuing;
          (ii) change the manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, or amend, renew, exchange, increase or alter, the terms of any of the First-Lien Obligations or any Lien on any First-Lien Collateral or guaranty thereof or any liability of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (including any increase in or extension of the First-Lien Obligations, without any restriction as to the amount, tenor or terms of any such increase or extension) or otherwise amend, renew, exchange, extend, modify or supplement in any manner any Liens held by the First-Lien Collateral Agents or any of the First-Lien Creditors, the First-Lien Obligations or any of the First-Lien Documents;
          (iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, enforce or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any part of the First-Lien Collateral or any liability of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor to the First-Lien Creditors or the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof;
          (iv) settle or compromise any First-Lien Obligation or any other liability of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor or any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof and apply any sums by whomsoever paid and however realized to any liability (including the First-Lien Obligations) in any manner or order;

Page 29

the Second-Lien Loan Documents), agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any other similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.
          7.4 Waiver of Liability; Indemnity.
          (a) The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, also agrees that the First-Lien Creditors and the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall have no liability to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditors, and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second-Lien Creditors, hereby waives any claim against any First-Lien Creditor or the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, arising out of any and all actions which the First-Lien Creditors or the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent may take or permit or omit to take with respect to: (i) the First-Lien Documents (including, without limitation, any failure to perfect or obtain perfected security interests in the First-Lien Collateral), (ii) the collection of the First-Lien Obligations or (iii) the foreclosure upon, or sale, liquidation or other disposition of, any First-Lien Collateral. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, agrees that the First-Lien Creditors and the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent have no duty, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to them in respect of the maintenance or preservation of the First-Lien Collateral, the First-Lien Obligations or otherwise. Neither the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents will be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, or will be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Borrower or any other Grantor or upon the request of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, any other holder of Second-Lien Obligations or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, each Second-Lien Creditor by accepting the benefits of the Second-Lien Security Documents agrees that neither the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent nor any other First-Lien Creditor (in directing the Collateral Agent to take any action with respect to the Collateral) shall have any duty or obligation to realize first upon any type of Collateral or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral in any manner, including as a result of the application of the principles of marshaling or otherwise, that would maximize the return to any class of Creditors holding Obligations of any type (whether First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Obligations), notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by such class of Creditors from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation.
          (b) With respect to its share of the Obligations, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (“Bank”) shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder as, and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for, any other Creditor, all as if Bank were not the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the Second-Lien Collateral Agent. The term “Creditors” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Bank in its individual capacity as a Creditor. Bank and its affiliates may lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Grantors or any of


 

Page 30

their Affiliates as if Bank were not acting as the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or Second-Lien Collateral Agent and without any duty to account therefor to any other Creditor.
          7.5 Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent and the other First-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second-Lien Creditors, respectively, hereunder (including the Lien priorities established hereby) shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
          (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any First-Lien Document or any Second-Lien Loan Document;
          (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of any First-Lien Document or any Second-Lien Loan Document;
          (c) any exchange of any security interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the First-Lien Obligations or Second-Lien Obligations or any guarantee thereof;
          (d) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor; or
          (e) any other circumstances which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor in respect of the First-Lien Obligations, or of the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any Second-Lien Creditor in respect of this Agreement.
          SECTION 8. Miscellaneous.
          8.1 Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the First-Lien Documents or the Second-Lien Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control.
          8.2 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the First-Lien Creditors may continue, at any time and without notice to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second-Lien Creditor, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor constituting First-Lien Obligations in reliance hereon. The Second-Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second-Lien Creditors, hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to


 

Page 31

constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable nonbankruptcy law. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. All references to the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor shall include the Parent Borrower or such Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, (i) with respect to the Second-Lien Collateral Agent, the other Second-Lien Creditors and the Second-Lien Obligations, upon the later of (1) the date upon which the obligations under the Second-Lien Credit Agreement terminate if there are no other Second-Lien Obligations outstanding on such date and (2) if there are other Second-Lien Obligations outstanding on such date, the date upon which such Second-Lien Obligations terminate and (ii) with respect to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent, the other First-Lien Creditors and the First-Lien Obligations, the date of the Discharge of First-Lien Obligations, subject to the rights of the First-Lien Creditors under Section 6.5.
          8.3 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent shall be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto; provided that (x) the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Required First-Lien Creditors) may, without the written consent of any other Creditor, agree to modifications of this Agreement for the purpose of securing additional extensions of credit (including pursuant to the First-Lien Credit Agreement or any Refinancing or extension thereof) and adding new creditors as “First-Lien Creditors” and “Creditors” hereunder, so long as such extensions (and resulting additions) do not otherwise give rise to a violation of the express terms of the First-Lien Credit Agreement or the Second-Lien Credit Agreement and (y) additional Grantors may be added as parties hereto in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.18 of this Agreement. Each waiver of the terms of this Agreement, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall not impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Grantor shall have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent its rights, interests, liabilities or privileges are directly affected.

Each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and each other Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Second-Lien Collateral Agent or the other Second-Lien Creditors and paid over to the U.S. First-Lien Collateral Agent or the other First-Lien Creditors pursuant to, and applied in accordance with, this Agreement, shall not relieve or reduce any of the Obligations owed by the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor under the Second-Lien Loan Documents.

constituting Collateral in any reasonable manner and through any reasonable medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and the relevant Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require in connection with such test verifications. At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or others reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to furnish to the Collateral Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral.
          (b) The Collateral Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral and the Collateral Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in subsection 8(a) of the Credit Agreement.

All Proceeds constituting collections or other cash proceeds of Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral while held by the U.S. Collateral Account Bank (or by any Grantor in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as hereinafter provided. At any time when an Event of Default specified in subsection 8(a) of the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, at the Collateral Agent’s election, each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of the funds on deposit in the U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account established by the relevant Grantor to the payment of the Obligations of such Grantor then due and owing, such application to be made as set forth in subsection 6.5 hereof.

Account. In the event that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent and the Grantors agree that the Collateral Agent, at its option, may require that each U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account and the General Funds Account of each Grantor be established at the Collateral Agent. Each Grantor shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to withdraw such of its own funds from its own General Fund Account, and to maintain such balances in its General Fund Account, as it shall deem to be necessary or desirable.
               Section 6.2. Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) The Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others, may at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in subsection 8(a) of the Credit Agreement, communicate with obligors under the Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral and parties to the Contracts (in each case, to the extent constituting Collateral) to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts Receivable or Contracts.
          (b) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in subsection 8(a) of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall notify obligors on such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable and parties to such Grantor’s Contracts (in each case, to the extent constituting Collateral) that such Accounts Receivable and such Contracts have been assigned to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent.
          (c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable 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. None of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Account Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
               Section 6.3. Pledged Stock. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Pledgor of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to subsection 6.3(b), each Pledgor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends and distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Stock (subject to the last two sentences of subsection 5.3.1 of this Agreement) and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to the Pledged Stock; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate right exercised or such other action taken (other than in connection with a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit

-29-


 

Agreement) which, in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable judgment, would materially impair the Pledged Stock or the related rights or remedies of the Secured Parties or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
          (b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Pledgor or Pledgors, (i) the Collateral Agent, or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and make application thereof to the Obligations of the relevant Pledgor in such order as is provided in subsection 6.5, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Stock shall be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee or the U.S. Collateral Agent or its nominee, and the Collateral Agent or its nominee or the U.S. Collateral Agent or its nominee, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Stock at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Stock as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Stock upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by the relevant Pledgor or the Collateral Agent, or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Stock, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent, or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, may reasonably determine), all without liability (other than for its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction) except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent, or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, shall have no duty, to any Pledgor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing, provided that the Collateral Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, shall not exercise any voting or other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Stock in any way that would constitute an exercise of the remedies described in subsection 6.6 other than in accordance with subsection 6.6.
          (c) Each Pledgor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer or maker of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Pledgor 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 Pledgor, and each Pledgor agrees that each Issuer or maker shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Securities directly to the Collateral Agent.

               Section 6.4. Proceeds to be Turned Over To Collateral Agent. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties specified in subsection 6.1 with respect to payments of Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, and the Collateral Agent shall have instructed any Grantor to do so, all Proceeds of Collateral received by such Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other Cash Equivalent items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereto or the Secured Parties (as defined in the U.S. Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) as applicable, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable (or their respective agents appointed for purposes of perfection), in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, if required). All Proceeds of Collateral received by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Collateral Agent, or the U.S. Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, in the relevant U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account maintained under its sole dominion and control.

               Section 6.5. Application of Proceeds. It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any and all Proceeds of the relevant Granting Party’s Collateral (as defined in the Credit Agreement) received by the Collateral Agent (whether from the relevant Granting Party or otherwise) shall be held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party (whether matured or unmatured), and/or then or at any time thereafter may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, be applied by the Collateral Agent as follows:

Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Borrower Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;
     (d) fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (a) through (c), inclusive, an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Borrower Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Parties as provided in subsection 6.5.2 hereof, with each Secured Party receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Borrower Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Borrower Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;
     (e) fifth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to preceding clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, ratably to any then remaining unpaid Obligations; and
     (f) sixth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (a) through (e), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement, to the relevant Grantor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
          6.5.2 For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Party’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Party’s Primary Borrower Obligations or Secondary Borrower Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Borrower Obligations or Secondary Borrower Obligations, as the case may be, (ii) “Primary Obligations” shall mean (x) in the case of the Loan Document Obligations, all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, fees and interest on, all Term Loans, and all fees and expenses due and owing pursuant to the Credit Agreement and (y) in the case of the Other Obligations, all amounts due under each Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Permitted Hedging Arrangement with an Other Creditor (other than indemnities, fees (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) and similar obligations and liabilities), (iii) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations, (iv) “Primary Borrower Obligations” shall mean all Primary Obligations which are also Borrower Obligations and (v) “Secondary Borrower Obligations” shall mean all Secondary Obligations which are also Borrower Obligations.

          6.5.4 For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this subsection 6.5, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Representative or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which the Administrative Agent, each Representative and the Other Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the

-32-


 

outstanding Primary Borrower Obligations and Secondary Borrower Obligations owed to the Lender Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has received written notice from a Lender Creditor or an Other Creditor to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding. Unless it has written notice from an Other Creditor to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Permitted Hedging Arrangements with an Other Creditor are in existence.
          6.5.5 It is understood that the Grantors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Obligations.
               Section 6.6. Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may, to the extent not inconsistent with the Intercreditor Agreement, exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations to the extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, under any other applicable law and in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, 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 Granting Party 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 Security Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Security Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall have the right, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Security Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in such Granting Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Granting Party further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Security Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Granting Party’s premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this subsection 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Security Collateral or in any way relating to the Security Collateral or the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party then due and owing, in the order of priority specified in subsection 6.5 above, and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Code, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to such Granting Party. To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i)

-33-


 

such Granting Party waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Security Collateral, other than any such claims, damages and demands that may arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party (in each case as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction), and (ii) if any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Security Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.
               Section 6.7. Registration Rights. (a) If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to subsection 6.6, and if in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent it is necessary or reasonably advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Pledgor will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and use its best efforts to 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, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of not more than one year from the date of the first public offering of such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all states and the District of Columbia that the Collateral Agent shall reasonably designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.
          (b) Such Pledgor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all such Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Such Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, to the extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.
          (c) Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of such Pledged Stock pursuant to this subsection 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any

-34-


 

and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Such Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this subsection 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, that the Collateral Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this subsection 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing under the Credit Agreement.
               Section 6.8. Waiver; Deficiency. Each Granting Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Security Collateral are insufficient to pay in full, the Term Loans and, to the extent then due and owing, all other Obligations of such Granting Party and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

          (b) The reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this subsection 7.1, together with the interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on past due ABR Loans that are Initial Term Loans under the Credit Agreement from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Granting Party, shall be payable by such Granting Party to the Collateral Agent on demand.

-36-


 

          (c) Each Granting Party hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable as to the relevant Granting Party until this Agreement is terminated as to such Granting Party, and the security interests in the Security Collateral of such Granting Party created hereby are released.
               Section 7.2. Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Security Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. None of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Security Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Security Collateral upon the request of any Granting Party or any other Person or, except as otherwise provided herein, to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Security Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Security Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Granting Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein or for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable decision issued by a court of competent jurisdiction).
               Section 7.3. Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Granting Party authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to such Granting Party’s Security Collateral without the signature of such Granting Party in such form and in such filing offices as the Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Granting Party authorizes the Collateral Agent to use any collateral description determined by the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets” in any such financing statements.
               Section 7.4. Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Granting Party 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 or any amendment, supplement or other modification of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit 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 Granting Parties, 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 Granting Party shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

               Section 7.5. Right of Inspection. Upon reasonable written advance notice to any Grantor and as often as may reasonably be desired, or at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to all the books, correspondence and records of such Grantor, and the Collateral Agent and its representatives may examine the same, and to the extent reasonable take extracts therefrom and make photocopies thereof, and such Grantor agrees to render to the Collateral Agent at such Grantor’s reasonable cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto. The Collateral Agent and its representatives shall also have the right, upon reasonable advance written notice to such Grantor subject to any lease restrictions, to enter during normal business hours into and upon any premises owned, leased or operated by such Grantor where any of such Grantor’s Inventory or Equipment is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting its interests therein.
ARTICLE VIII
Non-Lender Secured Parties
     Section 8.1. Rights to Collateral. (a) The Non-Lender Secured Parties shall not have any right whatsoever to do any of the following: (i) exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral (such term, as used in this Section 8, having the meaning assigned to it in the Credit Agreement), including, without limitation, the right to (A) enforce any Liens or sell or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral, (B) request any action, institute any proceedings, exercise any voting rights, give any instructions, make any election, notice account debtors or make collections with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral or (C) release any Guarantor under this Agreement or release any Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document or consent to or otherwise approve any such release; (ii) demand, accept or obtain any Lien on any Collateral (except for Liens arising under, and subject to the terms of, this Agreement); (iii) vote in any Bankruptcy Case or similar proceeding in respect of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (any such proceeding, for purposes of this clause (a), a “Bankruptcy”) with respect to, or take any other actions concerning the Collateral; (iv) receive any proceeds from any sale, transfer or other disposition of any of the Collateral (except in accordance with this Agreement); (v) oppose any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral; (vi) object to any debtor-in-possession financing in any Bankruptcy which is provided by one or more Lenders among others (including on a priming basis under Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code); (vii) object to the use of cash collateral in respect of the Collateral in any Bankruptcy; or (viii) seek, or object to the Lenders seeking on an equal and ratable basis, any adequate protection or relief from the automatic stay with respect to the Collateral in any Bankruptcy.
          (b) Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, agrees that in exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, with the consent of the Collateral Agent, may enforce the provisions of the Security Documents and exercise remedies thereunder and under any other Loan Documents (or refrain from enforcing rights and exercising remedies), all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole business judgment. Such exercise and enforcement shall include, without limitation, the rights to collect, sell, dispose of or otherwise realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, to incur expenses in

-38-


 

connection with such collection, sale, disposition or other realization and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction. The Non-Lender Secured Parties by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents hereby agree not to contest or otherwise challenge any such collection, sale, disposition or other realization of or upon all or any of the Collateral. Whether or not a Bankruptcy Case has been commenced, the Non-Lender Secured Parties shall be deemed to have consented to any sale or other disposition of any property, business or assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and the release of any or all of the Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document in connection therewith.
          (c) Notwithstanding any provision of this subsection 8.1, the Non-Lender Secured Parties shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleadings (A) in order to prevent any Person from seeking to foreclose on the Collateral or supersede the Non-Lender Secured Parties’ claim thereto or (B) in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Non-Lender Secured Parties.
          (d) Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefit of this Agreement, agrees that the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may deal with the Collateral, including any exchange, taking or release of Collateral, may change or increase the amount of the Borrower Obligations and/or the Guarantor Obligations, and may release any Guarantor from its Obligations hereunder, all without any liability or obligation (except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein) to the Non-Lender Secured Parties.
               Section 8.2. Appointment of Agent. Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, shall be deemed irrevocably to make, constitute and appoint the Collateral Agent, as agent under the Credit Agreement (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Person’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, and in such capacity, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, with power of substitution for the Non-Lender Secured Parties and in each such Person’s name or otherwise, to effectuate any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral. It is understood and agreed that the appointment of the Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Non-Lender Secured Parties for the purposes set forth herein is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. It is understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent has appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent for purposes of perfecting certain of the security interests created hereunder and for otherwise carrying out certain of its obligations hereunder.
               Section 8.3. Waiver of Claims. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Non-Lender Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the Collateral Agent or the Lenders with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Lenders or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Loan Documents or any transaction relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any such exercise described in subsection 8.1(b) above), except for any such action or failure to act which constitutes willful misconduct or gross

-39-


 

negligence of such Person (as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction). None of the Collateral Agent or any Lender or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Holdings, any Subsidiary of Holdings, any Non-Lender Secured Party or any other Person or to take any other action or forbear from doing so whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof, except for any such action or failure to act which constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person (as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction).
ARTICLE IX
Miscellaneous
               Section 9.1. Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each affected Granting Party and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders or, if required pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement, all of the Lenders), provided that (a) any provision of this Agreement imposing obligations on any Granting Party may be waived by the Collateral Agent in a written instrument executed by the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders or, if required pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement, all of the Lenders) and (b) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection 10.1 of the Credit Agreement, no such waiver and no such amendment or modification shall amend, modify or waive the definition of “Secured Party” or subsection 6.5 if such waiver, amendment, or modification would adversely affect a Secured Party without the written consent of each such affected Secured Party.
               Section 9.2. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Collateral Agent or any Granting Party hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in subsection 10.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1, unless and until such Guarantor shall change such address by notice to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent given in accordance with subsection 10.2 of the Credit Agreement.
               Section 9.3. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. None of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to subsection 9.1), 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 the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and

-40-


 

remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
               Section 9.4. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to pay or reimburse each Secured Party and the Collateral Agent for all their respective reasonable costs and expenses incurred in collecting against any Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement against such Guarantor and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent.
          (b) Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties harmless from, (x) any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other similar taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Security Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (y) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement (collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”), in each case to the extent the Parent Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to subsection 10.5 of the Credit Agreement, and in any event excluding any taxes or other indemnified liabilities arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party (as determined in a final non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction).
          (c) The agreements in this subsection 9.4 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
               Section 9.5. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Granting Parties, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided that no Granting Party may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.
               Section 9.6. Set-Off. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party at any time and from time to time without notice to such Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any of the Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor and by each Borrower, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under subsection 8(a) of the Credit Agreement so long as any amount remains unpaid after it becomes due and payable by such Guarantor hereunder, to set-off and appropriate and apply against any such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than the U.S. Collateral Proceeds Account), 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 the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of such

-41-


 

Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party may elect. The Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other 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 the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party under this subsection 9.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party may have.
               Section 9.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
               Section 9.8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction; provided that, with respect to any Pledged Stock issued by a Foreign Subsidiary, all rights, powers and remedies provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that they do not violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to any such Pledged Stock or affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the provisions of this Agreement against the Pledgor (such laws, rules or regulations, “Applicable Law”) and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any Applicable Law.
               Section 9.9. Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.
               Section 9.10. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Granting Parties, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Granting Parties, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.
               Section 9.11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

-42-


 

               Section 9.12. Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:
     (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America located in the county of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;
     (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;
     (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such party at its address referred to in subsection 9.2 or at such other address of which the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent (in the case of any other party hereto) or the Parent Borrower (in the case of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent) shall have been notified pursuant thereto;
     (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 sue in any other jurisdiction; and
     (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any consequential or punitive damages.
               Section 9.13. Acknowledgments. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that:
     (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party;
     (b) none of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Guarantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor; and
     (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby among the Secured Parties or among the Guarantors and the Secured Parties.

-43-


 

               Section 9.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO 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.
               Section 9.15. Additional Granting Parties. Each new Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to subsection 6.9(b) of the Credit Agreement shall become a Granting Party for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex 2 hereto. Each existing Granting Party that is required to become a Pledgor with respect to Capital Stock of any new Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower pursuant to subsection 6.9(b) of the Credit Agreement shall become a Pledgor with respect thereto upon execution and delivery by such Granting Party of a Supplemental Agreement substantially in the form of Annex 2 hereto.
               Section 9.16. Releases. (a) At such time as the Term Loans and the other Obligations then due and owing shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated, all Security Collateral shall be 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 Granting Party hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Security Collateral shall revert to the Granting Parties. At the request and sole expense of any Granting Party following any such termination, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to such Granting Party any Security Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Granting Party such documents (including without limitation UCC termination statements) as such Granting Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
          (b) In connection with any sale or other disposition of Security Collateral permitted by the Credit Agreement (other than any sale or disposition to another Grantor), the Lien pursuant to this Agreement on such sold or disposed of Security Collateral shall be automatically released. In connection with the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor (other than to Holdings, the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary of either) or the sale or other disposition of Security Collateral (other than a sale or disposition to another Grantor) permitted under the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt from the Parent Borrower of a written request for the release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee or the release of the Security Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, identifying such Guarantor or the relevant Security Collateral and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Parent Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, execute and deliver to the relevant Granting Party (at the sole cost and expense of such Granting Party and without representation or warranty of any kind) all releases or other documents (including without limitation UCC termination statements) necessary or reasonably desirable for the release of such Guarantee or the Liens created hereby on such Security Collateral, as applicable, as such Granting Party may reasonably request.

[Name of Payor] (the “Payor”), for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each holder of the Note to which this Annex ___is attached (the “Note”) by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of the principal of, interest on, and all other amounts owing in respect of, the Note (the “Subordinated Indebtedness”) is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner set forth below, to the prior payment in full in cash of all amounts owing in respect of Senior Indebtedness (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex ___). The provisions of this Annex ___shall constitute a continuing offer to all persons or other entities who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are made obligees hereunder the same as if their names were written herein as such, and they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions.
          Section 1.02. Payor Not to Make Payments with Respect to Subordinated Indebtedness in Certain Circumstances. (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness (including interest thereon or fees or any other amounts owing in respect thereof), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all Obligations (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex ___) owing in respect of the Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, before any payment of any kind or character, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise, is made on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness.

Each holder of the Note hereby agrees that, so long as any such Default or Event of Default in respect of any issue of Senior Indebtedness has occurred and is continuing, it will not sue for, or otherwise take any action to enforce the Payor’s obligations to pay, amounts owing in respect of the Note. Each holder of the Note understands and agrees that to the extent that clause (a) of this Section 1.02 or this clause (b) prohibits the payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness, such unpaid amount shall not constitute a payment default under the Note and the holder of the Note may not sue for, or otherwise take action to enforce the Payor’s obligation to pay such amount, provided that such unpaid amount shall remain an obligation of the Payor to the holder of the Note pursuant to the terms of the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as a Default or Event of Default has not occurred, Payor will be entitled to make (and any person or other entity on behalf of the Payor shall be entitled to make) and the holder of any Note will be entitled to receive scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Subordinated Indebtedness.

          Section 1.03. Subordination to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization of Payor.

     (b) any payment or distributions of assets of the Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities to which the holder of the Note would be entitled except for the provisions of this Annex___, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or other trustee or agent, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued as their respective interests may appear (including by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders), to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and
     (c) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.03, any payment or distribution of assets of the Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the holder of the Note on account of Subordinated Indebtedness before all amounts owing in respect of Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee

          Section 1.05. Obligation of the Payor Unconditional. Nothing contained in this Annex ___ or in the Note is intended to or shall impair, as between the Payor and the holder of the Note, the obligation of the Payor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holder of the Note the principal of and interest on the Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the holder of the Note and creditors of the Payor other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the holder of the Note from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon an event of default under the Note, subject to the provisions of this Annex ___and the rights, if any, under this Annex___of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property, or securities of the Payor received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any distribution of assets of the Payor referred to in this Annex ___, the holder of the Note shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution to the holder of the Note, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Payor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Annex ___.
          Section 1.06. Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of Payor or Holders of Senior Indebtedness. No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Payor or by any act or failure to act in good faith by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Payor with the terms and provisions of the Note, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or
