SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of March 31, 2014, made by each of the undersigned assignors (each, an “Assignor” and, together with any other entity that becomes an assignor hereunder, the “Assignors”), in favor of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as collateral agent (together with any successor collateral agent, in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent” or the “Assignee”), for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein (including Article X hereof) have the meanings ascribed to them in the New York UCC or the Indenture (each as defined below), as applicable.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Lee Enterprises, Incorporated (the “Issuer”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as indenture trustee, and the Collateral Agent have entered into that certain Indenture, dated as of March 31, 2014 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance by the Issuer of certain notes, as contemplated therein (the Holders of the notes (including any beneficial holders thereof) and the Collateral Agent are herein called the “Secured Creditors”);

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the issuance of the notes under the Indenture that each Assignor shall have executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, each Assignor will obtain benefits from the issuance of the notes under the Indenture and, accordingly, desires to execute this Agreement in order to satisfy the condition described in the preceding paragraph;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each Assignor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Assignor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and hereby covenants and agrees with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors as follows:

ARTICLE I

SECURITY INTERESTS

Section 1.1 Grant of Security Interests. (a) As security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due of all of its Obligations, each Assignor does hereby assign and transfer unto the Collateral Agent, and does hereby pledge and grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, a continuing security interest in all of the right, title and interest of such Assignor in, to and under all of the following personal property and fixtures (and all rights therein) of such Assignor, or in which or to which such Assignor has any rights, in each case whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired:

(i) each and every Account;

(iv) all Chattel Paper (including, without limitation, all Tangible Chattel Paper and all Electronic Chattel Paper);

(v) all Commercial Tort Claims as described on Annex G as updated from time to time;

(vi) all computer programs of such Assignor and all intellectual property rights therein and all other proprietary information of such Assignor, including but not limited to Domain Names and Trade Secret Rights;

(vii) all Contracts, together with all Contract Rights arising thereunder;

(viii) all Equipment;

(ix) all Deposit Accounts and all other demand, deposit, time, savings, cash management, passbook and similar accounts maintained by such Assignor with any Person and all monies, securities, Instruments and other investments deposited or required to be deposited in any of the foregoing;

(x) all Documents;

(xi) all General Intangibles;

(xii) all Goods;

(xiii) all Instruments;

(xviii) all Letter-of-Credit Rights (whether or not the respective letter of credit is evidenced by a writing);

(xix) all Notes;

(xx) all Permits;

(xxi) all Security Entitlements and other Investment Property (to the extent not already covered by another clause of this Section 1.1(a));

 

2


(xxii) all Supporting Obligations;

(xxiii) all Fixtures;

(xxiv) all other goods and personal property, whether tangible or intangible; and

(xxv) all Proceeds and products of, and all accessions to, substitutions and replacements for, and rents, profits and products of, any and all of the foregoing

(all of the above, the “Collateral”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Collateral” shall not include any Excluded Property.

(b) The security interest of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement automatically (and without the taking of any action by any Assignor) extends to all Collateral which any Assignor may acquire (including, without limitation, by purchase, stock dividend, distribution or otherwise), or with respect to which such Assignor may obtain rights, at any time during the term of this Agreement and such Collateral shall automatically be subject to the security interest created pursuant hereto. Each Assignor shall (to the extent provided below) take the following actions as set forth below (as promptly as practicable and, in any event, within 10 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) after it obtains such Collateral) for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors:

(i) with respect to a Certificated Security (other than a Certificated Security credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary), such Assignor shall physically deliver such Certificated Security to the Collateral Agent, endorsed to the Collateral Agent or endorsed in blank;

(ii) with respect to an Uncertificated Security (other than an Uncertificated Security credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary), such Assignor shall cause the issuer of such Uncertificated Security to duly authorize, execute, and deliver to the Collateral Agent, an agreement for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Creditors substantially in the form of Annex R (appropriately completed and with such modifications, if any, as shall be necessary) pursuant to which such issuer agrees to comply with any and all instructions originated by the Collateral Agent without further consent by the registered owner and not to comply with instructions regarding such Uncertificated Security (and any Partnership Interests and Limited Liability Company Interests issued by such issuer) originated by any other Person other than a court of competent jurisdiction;

(iii) with respect to a Certificated Security, Uncertificated Security, Partnership Interest or Limited Liability Company Interest credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary (including a Federal Reserve Bank, Participants Trust Company or The Depository Trust Company), such Assignor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and shall promptly take (x) all actions required (i) to comply with the applicable rules of such Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary and (ii) to perfect the security interest of the Collateral Agent under applicable law (including, in

 

3


any event, under Sections 9-314(a), (b) and (c), 9-106 and 8-106(d) of the UCC) and (y) such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing;

(iv) with respect to any Capital Stock (other than a Partnership Interest or Limited Liability Company Interest credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary), (1) if such Capital Stock is represented by a certificate and is a Security for purposes of the UCC, the procedure set forth in Section 1.1(b)(i) hereof, and (2) if such Capital Stock is not represented by a certificate or is not a Security for purposes of the UCC, the procedure set forth in Section 1.1(b)(ii) hereof;

(v) with respect to any Note, such Assignor shall physically deliver such Note to the Collateral Agent, endorsed in blank, or, at the request of the Collateral Agent, endorsed to the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 3.6; and

(vi) with respect to cash proceeds from any of the Collateral (other than cash proceeds received from a disposition of Collateral permitted under and applied in accordance with the Notes Documents), at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent or upon an occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, (i) establishment by the Collateral Agent of a cash account in the name of such Assignor over which the Collateral Agent shall have “control” within the meaning of the UCC and at any time any Default or Event of Default is in existence no withdrawals or transfers may be made therefrom by any Person except with the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and (ii) deposit of such cash in such cash account.

(c) In addition to the actions required to be taken pursuant to Section 1.1(b) hereof, each Assignor shall take the following additional actions with respect to the Collateral:

(i) with respect to all Collateral of such Assignor whereby or with respect to which the Collateral Agent may obtain “control” thereof within the meaning of Section 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, 8-106, and 9-107 of the New York UCC (or under any provision of the UCC, or under the laws of any relevant State other than the State of New York), such Assignor shall take all actions as may be necessary from time to time, in accordance with this Section 1.1, and Sections 3.10 and 3.12, so that “control” of such Collateral is obtained and at all times held by the Collateral Agent; and

(ii) in accordance with Section 7.5, each Assignor shall from time to time cause to be filed appropriate financing statements (on appropriate forms) under the UCC as in effect in the applicable States, covering all Collateral hereunder, to be filed in the relevant filing offices so that at all times the Collateral Agent’s security interest in all Investment Property and other Collateral which can be perfected by the filing of such financing statements (in each case to the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant States, including, without limitation, Section 9-312(a) of the New York UCC) is so perfected.

Section 1.2 Lien Subordination; Bailee for Perfection. (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is the understanding of the parties that the Liens granted pursuant to Section 1.1 herein shall, with respect to any such Liens granted in Pulitzer

 

4


Collateral on and after the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, be subject and subordinate to the First Priority Lien (as defined in the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement) on such Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) subject to the terms of the Lee Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, the Lee Junior Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Pari Intercreditor Agreement, (i) the requirements of this Agreement to endorse, assign or deliver Collateral to the Collateral Agent, or to provide the Collateral Agent “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) over Collateral, shall be deemed satisfied by endorsement, assignment or delivery of such Collateral to the Revolving Collateral Agent (as defined in the applicable Intercreditor Agreement) or by exercise of control over such Collateral by the Revolving Collateral Agent, in each case as bailee and agent for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) any endorsement, assignment or delivery of Collateral to the Revolving Collateral Agent or control over such Collateral by the Revolving Collateral Agent, in each case as bailee and agent for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, shall be deemed an endorsement, assignment or delivery to, or control by, the Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder and (iii) any covenant hereunder or in the Indenture requiring (or any representation or warranty hereunder to the extent it would have the effect of requiring) any of the actions described in clauses (x)(i) and (x)(ii) above, including the payment or other transfer of Collateral to the Collateral Agent, shall be deemed to have been satisfied (or, in the case of any representation and warranty, shall be deemed to be true) if such action has otherwise been taken with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Revolving Collateral Agent as noted above in clauses (x)(i) and (x)(ii), (y) subject to the terms of the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement, on and after the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, (i) the requirements of this Agreement to endorse, assign or deliver Pulitzer Collateral to the Collateral Agent, or to provide the Collateral Agent “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) over Pulitzer Collateral, shall be deemed satisfied by endorsement, assignment or delivery of Pulitzer Collateral to the First Priority Representative or by exercise of control over such Collateral by the First Priority Representative, in each case as bailee and agent for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) any endorsement, assignment or delivery of Pulitzer Collateral to the First Priority Representative or control over the Pulitzer Collateral by the First Priority Representative, in each case as bailee and agent for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement, shall be deemed an endorsement, assignment or delivery to, or control by, the Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder and (iii) any covenant hereunder or in the Indenture requiring (or any representation or warranty hereunder to the extent it would have the effect of requiring) any of the actions described in clauses (y)(i) and (y)(ii) above, including the payment or other transfer of Pulitzer Collateral to the Collateral Agent, shall be deemed to have been satisfied (or, in the case of any representation and warranty, shall be deemed to be true) if such action has otherwise been taken with respect to the Pulitzer Collateral for the benefit of the First Priority Representative as noted above in clauses (y)(i) and (y)(ii), and (z) the requirement of this Agreement to endorse, assign or deliver to the Collateral Agent, or to otherwise provide the Collateral Agent “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) over, any Investment Property of an Assignor, shall not apply to any Excluded Property.

Section 1.3 Power of Attorney. Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor hereby constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent its true and

 

5


lawful attorney, irrevocably, with full power after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default (in the name of such Assignor or otherwise) to act, require, demand, receive, compound and give acquittance for any and all monies and claims for monies due or to become due to such Assignor under or arising out of the Collateral, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which may be reasonably necessary to protect the interests of the Secured Creditors, which appointment as attorney is coupled with an interest.

ARTICLE II

GENERAL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

Each Assignor represents, warrants and covenants, which representations, warranties and covenants shall survive execution and delivery of this Agreement, as follows:

Section 2.1 Necessary Filings. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, all filings, registrations, recordings and other actions reasonably necessary or appropriate to create, preserve and perfect the security interest granted by such Assignor to the Collateral Agent hereby in respect of the Collateral have been accomplished and the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement in and to the Collateral creates a valid and, together with all such filings, registrations, recordings and other actions, a perfected security interest therein prior to the rights of all other Persons (other than the collateral agents under the Pari Passu Credit Facility and in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and, after the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, the First Priority Representative) therein and subject to no other Liens (other than Liens permitted by Section 3.5 of the Indenture) and is entitled to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the UCC or other relevant law as enacted in any relevant jurisdiction to perfected security interests, in each case to the extent that the Collateral consists of the type of property in which a security interest may be perfected by possession or control (within the meaning of the New York UCC), by filing a financing statement under the UCC as enacted in any relevant jurisdiction or by a filing of a Grant of Security Interest in the respective form attached hereto in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or in the United States Copyright Office.

Section 2.2 No Liens. Such Assignor is, and as to all Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof such Assignor will be, the owner of all Collateral free from any Lien or other right, title or interest of any Person (other than Liens permitted by Section 3.5 of the Indenture), and such Assignor shall defend the Collateral against all claims and demands of all Persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent.

Section 2.3 Other Financing Statements. As of the date hereof, there is no financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Collateral (other than financing statements filed in respect of Liens permitted by Section 3.5 of the Indenture), and so long as the Termination Date has not occurred, such Assignor will not execute or authorize or request to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) or statements relating to the

 

6


Collateral, except financing statements filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted hereby by such Assignor, in connection with Liens permitted by Section 3.5 of the Indenture or financing statement amendments or terminations in connection with the release of Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Notes Documents.

Section 2.4 Chief Executive Office, Record Locations. The chief executive office of such Assignor is, on the date of this Agreement, located at the address indicated on Annex A hereto for such Assignor. During the period of the four calendar months preceding the date of this Agreement, the chief executive office of such Assignor has not been located at any address other than that indicated on Annex A in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, in each case unless each such other address is also indicated on Annex A hereto for such Assignor.

Section 2.5 [RESERVED].

Section 2.6 Legal Names; Type of Organization (and Whether a Registered Organization and/or a Transmitting Utility); Jurisdiction of Organization; Location; Organizational Identification Numbers; Federal Employer Identification Number; Changes Thereto; etc. The exact legal name of each Assignor, the type of organization of such Assignor, whether or not such Assignor is a Registered Organization, the jurisdiction of organization of such Assignor, such Assignor’s Location, the organizational identification number (if any) of such Assignor, the Federal Employer Identification Number (if any); and whether or not such Assignor is a Transmitting Utility, is listed on Annex C hereto for such Assignor. Such Assignor shall not change its legal name, its type of organization, its status as a Registered Organization (in the case of a Registered Organization), its status as a Transmitting Utility or as a Person which is not a Transmitting Utility, as the case may be, its jurisdiction of organization, its Location, its organizational identification number (if any), or its Federal Employer Identification Number (if any) from that used on Annex C hereto, except that any such changes shall be permitted (so long as not in violation of the applicable requirements of the Notes Documents and so long as the same do not involve (x) a Registered Organization ceasing to constitute the same or (y) such Assignor changing its jurisdiction of organization or Location from the United States or a State thereof to a jurisdiction of organization or Location, as the case may be, outside the United States or a State thereof) if (i) it shall have given to the Collateral Agent not less than 15 days’ prior (or such shorter period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) written notice of each change to the information listed on Annex C (as adjusted for any subsequent changes thereto previously made in accordance with this sentence), together with a supplement to Annex C which shall correct all information contained therein for such Assignor, and (ii) in connection with such change or changes, it shall have taken all necessary actions to maintain the security interests of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. In addition, to the extent that such Assignor does not have an organizational identification number on the date hereof and later obtains one, such Assignor shall promptly thereafter notify the Collateral Agent in writing of such organizational identification number and shall take all actions necessary to maintain the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby fully perfected and in full force and effect.

Section 2.7 [RESERVED].

Section 2.8 Certain Significant Transactions. During the one year period preceding the date of this Agreement, no Person shall have merged or consolidated with or into any Assignor, and no Person shall have liquidated into, or transferred all or substantially all of its assets to, any Assignor, in each case except as described in Annex E hereto. With respect to any transactions so described in Annex E hereto, the respective Assignor shall have furnished such information with respect to the Person (and the assets of the Person and locations thereof) which merged with or into or consolidated with such Assignor, or was liquidated into or transferred all or substantially all of its assets to such Assignor, and shall have furnished to the Collateral Agent UCC lien searches with respect to such Person and its assets, to establish that no security interest (excluding Liens permitted by Section 3.5 of the Indenture) continues perfected on the date hereof with respect to any Person described above (or the assets transferred to the respective Assignor by such Person), including without limitation pursuant to Section 9-316(a)(3) of the UCC.

Section 2.9 Non-UCC Property. The aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Assignors in good faith) of all Collateral of the Assignors of the types described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of Section 9-311(a) (other than Copyrights, Marks and Patents which are the subject of a filing of a grant of security interest in the respective form attached hereto in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or in the United States Copyright Office) of the UCC does not exceed $5,000,000. If the aggregate value of all such Collateral at any time owned by all Assignors exceeds $5,000,000, the Assignors shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the Collateral Agent and, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, the Assignors shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion)) take such actions (at their own cost and expense) as may be required under the respective United States, State or other laws referenced in Section 9-311(a) of the UCC to perfect the security interests granted herein in any Collateral where the filing of a financing statement does not perfect the security interest in such property in accordance with the provisions of Section 9-311(a) of the UCC.

Section 2.10 As-Extracted Collateral; Timber-to-be-Cut. On the date hereof, such Assignor does not own, or expect to acquire, any property which constitutes, or would constitute, As-Extracted Collateral or Timber-to-be-Cut. If at any time after the date of this Agreement such Assignor owns, acquires or obtains rights to any As-Extracted Collateral or Timber-to-be-Cut, such Assignor shall furnish the Collateral Agent with prompt written notice thereof (which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the As-Extracted Collateral and/or Timber-to-be-Cut and the locations thereof) and shall take all actions as may be necessary to perfect the security interest of the Collateral Agent therein.

Section 2.11 Collateral in the Possession of a Bailee. If any material amounts of Inventory or other Goods (as to the Assignors taken as a whole) are at any time in the possession of a bailee, such Assignor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing thereof and shall, to the extent required by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain an acknowledgment from such bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall act upon the instructions of the Collateral Agent, without the further consent of such Assignor. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Assignor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any such instructions unless an Event of Default has

 

8


occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by the respective Assignor with respect to any such bailee.

Section 2.12 Recourse.

Each Assignor will keep and maintain at its own cost and expense, in all material respects, accurate records of its Accounts and Contracts pursuant to its historical customs and practices, including, but not limited to, originals of all documentation (including each Contract) with respect thereto, records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all other dealings therewith, and such Assignor will make the same available on any premise of any Assignor to the Collateral Agent for inspection, at such Assignor’s own cost and expense, at any and all reasonable times upon prior notice to such Assignor and otherwise in accordance with the Indenture. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at the request of the Collateral Agent, such Assignor shall, at its own cost and expense, deliver all tangible evidence of its Accounts and Contract Rights (including, without limitation, all documents evidencing the Accounts and all Contracts) and such books and records to the Collateral Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Assignor).

Except as otherwise directed by the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, any Assignor may allow in the ordinary course of business as adjustments to amounts owing under its Accounts and Contracts (i) an extension or renewal of the time or times of payment, or settlement for less than the total unpaid balance, which such Assignor finds appropriate in accordance with reasonable business judgment and (ii) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged merchandise or improperly performed services or for other reasons which such Assignor finds appropriate in accordance with reasonable business judgment. The reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of collection, whether incurred by an Assignor or the Collateral Agent, shall be borne by the relevant Assignor.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Assignors shall remain liable under each of the Accounts to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to such Accounts. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Creditor shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (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 Creditor of any payment relating to such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Assignor under or pursuant to any Account (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 them or as to the

 

11


sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to them or to which they may be entitled at any time or times.

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

Section 3.9 Deposit Accounts; Etc. (a) No Assignor maintains, or at any time after the date of this Agreement shall establish or maintain, any demand, time, savings, passbook or similar account, except for such accounts maintained with a bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) whose jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) is within a State of the United States. Annex F hereto accurately sets forth, as of the date of this Agreement, for each Assignor, each Deposit Account maintained by such Assignor (including a description thereof and the respective account number), the name and address of the respective bank with which such Deposit Account is maintained, and the jurisdiction of the respective bank with respect to such Deposit Account, and indicates whether such Deposit Account constitutes an Excluded Account. For each Deposit Account (other than (i) the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained with the Collateral Agent and (ii) any Excluded Account), the respective Assignor shall cause the bank with which the Deposit Account is maintained to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (or to the Person contemplated by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements), within 90 days of this Agreement (or such later date as may be agreed to by such Person contemplated by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements) or, if later, at the time of the establishment of the respective Deposit Account, a “control agreement” in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. If any bank with which a Deposit Account (other than (i) the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained with the Collateral Agent and (ii) any Excluded Account) is maintained refuses to, or does not, enter into such a “control agreement”, then the respective Assignor shall promptly (and in any event within 90 days thereafter) close the respective Deposit Account and transfer all balances therein to the Cash Collateral Account or another Deposit Account meeting the requirements of this Section 3.9. If any bank with which a Deposit Account (other than (i) the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained with the Collateral Agent and (ii) any Excluded Account) is maintained refuses to subordinate all its claims with respect to such Deposit Account to the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein on terms consistent with market practice, then (x) such Deposit Account shall be terminated in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence or (y) a “control agreement” may be entered into without such

 

12


subordination to the extent agreed to by the collateral agents under the Pari Passu Credit Facility and in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, in each case to the extent then extant. The Collateral Agent agrees that it will only give a “Notice of Exclusive Control” under a “control agreement” following the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(b) After the date of this Agreement, no Assignor shall establish any new demand, time, savings, passbook or similar account, except for (i) Deposit Accounts established and maintained with banks and meeting the requirements of preceding clause (a) and (ii) Excluded Accounts. At the time any such Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account) is established, the appropriate “control agreement” shall be entered into in accordance with the requirements of preceding clause (a) and the respective Assignor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent a supplement to Annex F hereto containing the relevant information with respect to the respective Deposit Account and the bank with which same is established.

Section 3.10 Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Assignor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit with a stated amount of $500,000 or more, such Assignor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the request of the Collateral Agent, such Assignor shall, pursuant to an agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under such letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such letter of credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be applied as provided in this Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

Section 3.11 Commercial Tort Claims. All Commercial Tort Claims of each Assignor in existence on the date of this Agreement in an amount (taking the greater of the aggregate claimed damages thereunder or the reasonably estimated value thereof) of $500,000 or more are described in Annex G hereto. If any Assignor shall at any time after the date of this Agreement acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount (taking the greater of the aggregate claimed damages thereunder or the reasonably estimated value thereof) of $500,000 or more, such Assignor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Assignor and describing the details thereof and shall grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement.

Section 3.12 Chattel Paper. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent made at any time or from time to time, each Assignor shall promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a list of all Electronic Chattel Paper held or owned by such Assignor. Furthermore, to the extent required by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor shall promptly take all actions which are reasonably practicable so that the Collateral Agent has “control” of all Electronic Chattel Paper in accordance with the requirements of Section 9-105 of the UCC. Each Assignor will promptly (and in any event within 10 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion)) following any request by the Collateral Agent and subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, deliver any of its Tangible Chattel Paper so requested by the Collateral Agent to the Collateral Agent. At all times, each Assignor will mark Tangible Chattel Paper with a legend indicating the security interest herein.

 

13


Section 3.13 Further Actions. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such vouchers, invoices, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps, including any and all actions as may be necessary or required under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, relating to its Accounts, Contracts, Instruments and other property or rights covered by the security interest hereby granted, as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require.

All such rights of each Assignor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case

Nothing contained in this Section 4.5 shall limit or restrict in any way the Assignee’s right to receive the proceeds of the Collateral in any form in accordance with this Agreement. All dividends, distributions or other payments which are received by any Assignor contrary to the provisions of this Section 4.5 or Article VIII hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Assignee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Assignor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Assignee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

Section 4.6 Assignee Not a Partner or Limited Liability Company Member. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Assignee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner in any partnership.

The Assignee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Assignor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 4.6.

(c) The Assignee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Assignor as a result of the security interest in the Pledged Stock hereby effected.

(d) The acceptance by the Assignee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Pledged Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Pledged Collateral.

Section 4.7 The Assignee As Collateral Agent. The Assignee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Pledged Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood, acknowledged and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Assignee as holder of the Pledged Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the Indenture. The Assignee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Indenture.

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and any Assignor shall have received from the Assignee a written request or requests that such Assignor cause any registration, qualification or compliance under any federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, such Assignor as soon as practicable and at its expense will use its best efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its best efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Pledged Collateral, including, without limitation, registration under the Securities Act, as then in effect (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with any other governmental requirements; provided, that the Assignee shall furnish to such Assignor such information regarding the Assignee as such Assignor may reasonably request in writing and as shall be

 

16


required in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance. Each Assignor will cause the Assignee to be kept reasonably advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, will furnish to the Assignee such number of prospectuses, offering circulars and other documents incident thereto as the Assignee from time to time may reasonably request, and will indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Assignee and all other Secured Creditors participating in the distribution of such Pledged Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by an untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Assignor by the Assignee or such other Secured Creditor expressly for use therein.

(b) If at any time when the Assignee shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to Article VIII hereof, and such Pledged Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities Act, as then in effect, the Assignee may sell such Pledged Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Assignee may deem necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be effected without such registration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Assignee (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Pledged Collateral or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Assignee shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price which the Assignee may deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until the registration as aforesaid.

Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an absolute power of attorney to sign, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any document which may be required by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, domain name registrar or similar registrar in order to effect an absolute assignment of all right, title and interest in each Mark and/or Domain Name, and record the same.

Each Assignor further agrees to prosecute diligently in accordance with reasonable business practices any Person infringing any Mark or Domain Name in any manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.4 Preservation of Marks. Each Assignor agrees to take all such actions as are reasonably necessary to preserve its Marks as trademarks or service marks under the laws of the United States (other than any such Marks which are no longer used or useful in its business or operations and except as otherwise permitted by the Indenture).

18


shall pay all fees and disbursements in connection therewith and shall not abandon any such filing of affidavit of use or any such application of renewal prior to the exhaustion of all administrative and judicial remedies (other than with respect to registrations and applications deemed by such Assignor in its reasonable business judgment to be no longer prudent to pursue).

Each Assignor further warrants that it has received no third party claim that any aspect of such Assignor’s present or contemplated business operations infringes or will infringe any Patent or Copyright of any other Person or that such Assignor has misappropriated any Trade Secret or proprietary information, and has no knowledge of any threat of any such claim (including “cease and desist” letters and invitations to take a patent license), in each case, which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an absolute power of attorney to sign, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any document which may be required by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office in order to effect an absolute assignment of all right, title and interest in each Patent or Copyright, and to record the same.

Section 6.2 Licenses and Assignments. Except as otherwise permitted by the Notes Documents, each Assignor hereby agrees not to divest itself of or grant any license (other than any licenses granted in the ordinary course of business) to any right under any Patent or Copyright material to the operation of its business absent prior written approval of the Collateral Agent acting at the direction of the Required Secured Creditors.

Section 6.3 Infringements. Each Assignor agrees, promptly upon learning of any infringement, misappropriation or other violation of any Patent, Copyright or Trade Secret owned by such Assignor, to furnish the Collateral Agent in writing with all pertinent information available to such Assignor with respect to any infringement, contributing infringement or active inducement to infringe or other violation of such Assignor’s rights in any Patent or Copyright or to any claim that the practice of any Patent or use of any Copyright violates any property right of a third party, or with respect to any misappropriation of any Trade Secret Right or any claim that practice of any Trade Secret Right violates any property right of a third party, in each case, in any manner which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Assignor further agrees, absent direction of the Collateral Agent to the contrary, to diligently prosecute, in accordance with its reasonable business judgment, any Person infringing any Patent or Copyright or any Person misappropriating any Trade Secret Right, in each case to the extent that such infringement or misappropriation, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.4 Maintenance of Patents or Copyrights. At its own expense, each Assignor shall make timely payment of all fees required to prosecute and maintain in force its rights under each Patent or Copyright material to the operation of its business, absent prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (other than with respect to Patents and Copyrights, or applications therefor, deemed by such Assignor in its reasonable business judgment to be no longer prudent to maintain and except as otherwise permitted by the Indenture).

Section 6.5 Prosecution of Patent or Copyright Applications. At its own expense, each Assignor shall diligently prosecute all material applications for (i) United States Patents listed in Annex I hereto and (ii) Copyrights listed on Annex J hereto, in each case for

Section 6.6 Other Patents and Copyrights. Within 45 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) of the acquisition or issuance of a United States Patent or of filing of an application for a United States Patent, and within 30 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) of registration of a Copyright or of filing of an application for a Copyright, the relevant Assignor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of said Copyright or Patent, or certificate or registration of, or application therefor, as the case may be, with a grant of a security interest as to such Patent or Copyright, as the case may be, to the Collateral Agent and at the expense of such Assignor, confirming the grant of a security interest, the form of such grant of a security interest to be substantially in the form of Annex L or M hereto, as appropriate or in such other customary or necessary form to properly perfect such security interest.

Section 6.7 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and the Indenture, the Collateral Agent may, by written notice to the relevant Assignor, take any or all of the following actions: (i) declare the entire right, title, and interest of such Assignor in each of the Patents and Copyrights vested in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in which event such right, title, and interest shall immediately vest in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in which case the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise the power of attorney referred to in Section 1.3 hereof to execute, cause to be acknowledged and notarized and to record said absolute assignment with the applicable agency; (ii) take and practice or sell the Patents and Copyrights; and (iii) direct such Assignor to refrain, in which event such Assignor shall refrain, from practicing the Patents and using the Copyrights directly or indirectly, and such Assignor shall execute such further documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request further to confirm this and to transfer ownership of the Patents and Copyrights to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors.

ARTICLE VII

PROVISIONS CONCERNING ALL COLLATERAL

Section 7.1 Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. Except as otherwise permitted by the Notes Documents, each Assignor will do nothing to impair, in any material respect, the rights of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral. Each Assignor will at all times maintain insurance, at such Assignor’s own expense to the extent and in the manner provided in the Notes Documents. Except to the extent otherwise permitted to be retained by such Assignor or applied by such Assignor pursuant to the terms of the Notes Documents, the Collateral Agent shall, at the time any proceeds of such insurance are distributed to the Secured Creditors, apply such proceeds in accordance with Section 8.4 hereof. Each Assignor assumes all liability and responsibility in connection with the Collateral acquired by it and the liability of such Assignor

 

21


to pay the Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the fact that such Collateral may be lost, destroyed, stolen, damaged or for any reason whatsoever unavailable to such Assignor.

Section 7.2 Warehouse Receipts Non-Negotiable. To the extent practicable, each Assignor agrees that if any warehouse receipt or receipt in the nature of a warehouse receipt is issued with respect to any of its Inventory, such Assignor shall request that such warehouse receipt or receipt in the nature thereof shall not be “negotiable” (as such term is used in Section 7-104 of the UCC as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction or under other relevant law).

Section 7.3 Additional Information. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, promptly (and in any event within 10 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) after its receipt of the respective request) furnish to the Collateral Agent such information with respect to the Collateral (including the identity of the Collateral or such components thereof as may have been requested by the Collateral Agent, and the estimated value and location of such Collateral). Without limiting the foregoing, each Assignor agrees that it shall promptly (and in any event within 20 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) after its receipt of the respective request) furnish to the Collateral Agent such updated Annexes hereto as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent.

Section 7.4 Further Actions. Each Assignor will, at its own expense and upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such lists, descriptions and designations of its Collateral, warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the Collateral and other property or rights covered by the security interest hereby granted, which the Collateral Agent deems reasonably appropriate or advisable to perfect, preserve or protect its security interest in the Collateral consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 7.5 Financing Statements. Each Assignor agrees to execute and file or cause to be filed such financing statements as are reasonably necessary to establish and maintain a valid, enforceable, perfected security interest in the Collateral as provided herein and the other rights and security contemplated hereby. Each Assignor will pay any applicable filing fees, recordation taxes and related expenses relating to its Collateral. Each Assignor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file any such financing statements without the signature of such Assignor where permitted by law (and such authorization includes describing the Collateral as “all assets” of such Assignor with further reference to those assets specifically excluded from the grant of the security interest contained in this Agreement). For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to file any financing statements.

ARTICLE VIII

REMEDIES UPON OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT

Section 8.1 Remedies; Obtaining the Collateral Upon Default. Subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and the Indenture, each Assignor agrees that, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, the Collateral Agent, in addition to any rights now or hereafter existing under applicable law and under the other provisions of this Agreement, shall have all rights as a secured creditor under any UCC, and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured creditor is entitled under the laws in effect in all relevant jurisdictions and may:

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

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

(iii) instruct all banks which have entered into a control agreement with the Collateral Agent to transfer all monies, securities and instruments held by such depositary bank to the Cash Collateral Account;

(iv) sell, assign or otherwise liquidate any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with Section 8.2 hereof, or direct such Assignor to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof, and, in each case, take possession of the proceeds of any such sale or liquidation;

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

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

(y) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 9.2 hereof; and

 

23


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

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

(vii) apply any monies constituting Collateral or proceeds thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.4;

(viii) accelerate any Note which may be accelerated in accordance with its terms, and take any other lawful action to collect upon any Note (including, without limitation, to make any demand for payment thereon);

(ix) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Collateral Agent’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

(x) vote (and exercise all rights and powers in respect of voting) all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Collateral Agent) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Assignor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Collateral Agent the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Assignor, with full power of substation to do so); and

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

it being understood that each Assignor’s obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by such Assignor of said obligation. By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and each other Collateral Document, the Secured Creditors expressly acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and each other Collateral Document may be enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents and the Indenture.

Section 8.2 Remedies; Disposition of the Collateral. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then any Collateral repossessed by the Collateral Agent under or pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Collateral Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold,

 

24


leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Collateral Agent or after any overhaul or repair at the expense of the relevant Assignor which the Collateral Agent shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Any such sale, lease or other disposition may be effected by means of a public disposition or private disposition, effected in accordance with the applicable requirements (in each case if and to the extent applicable) of Sections 9-610 through 9-613 of the UCC and/or such other mandatory requirements of applicable law as may apply to the respective disposition. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private disposition or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the disposition, and such disposition may be made at any time or place to which the disposition may be so adjourned. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Collateral Agent may bid for and become the purchaser (and may pay all or any portion of the purchase price by crediting Obligations against the purchase price) of the Collateral or any item thereof, offered for disposition in accordance with this Section 8.2 without accountability to the relevant Assignor. If, under applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall be permitted to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the relevant Assignor as hereinabove specified, the Collateral Agent need give such Assignor only such notice of disposition as shall be required by such applicable law. Each Assignor agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary to make such disposition or dispositions of all or any portion of the Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at such Assignor’s expense.

Section 8.3 Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE AND JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S TAKING POSSESSION OR THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR REMEDIES, and each Assignor hereby further waives, to the extent permitted by law:

(i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession or any such disposition except any damages which are the direct result of the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision);

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

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

 

25


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

Section 8.4 Application of Proceeds. (a) Subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and the Indenture, all monies collected by the Collateral Agent (or, to the extent any Mortgage or any other Collateral Document requires proceeds of collateral under such other Collateral Document to be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent or other agent under such other Collateral Document) upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, together with all other monies received by the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be applied as provided in the applicable Intercreditor Agreements.

(b) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made to the Collateral Agent for the account of the Secured Creditors.

(c) It is understood that the Assignors 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 8.5 Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Collateral Agent shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, the other Notes Documents or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Collateral Agent. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any of the Obligations shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence thereof. No notice to or demand on any Assignor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the event that the Collateral Agent shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Collateral Agent may recover reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the amounts thereof shall be included in such judgment.

Section 8.6 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case the relevant Assignor, the Collateral Agent and each holder of any of the

 

26


Obligations shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral subject to the security interest created under this Agreement, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

Each Assignor agrees that upon written notice by any Indemnitee of the assertion of such a liability, obligation, damage, injury, penalty, claim, demand, action, suit or judgment, the relevant Assignor shall assume full responsibility for the defense thereof; provided however, that failure to provide written notice shall not relieve Assignors of any obligation to provide indemnity. Each Indemnitee agrees to use its best efforts to promptly notify the relevant Assignor of any such assertion of which such Indemnitee has knowledge.

(b) Without limiting the application of Section 9.1(a) hereof, each Assignor agrees, jointly and severally, to pay or reimburse the Collateral Agent for any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature incurred in connection with the creation, preservation or protection of the Collateral Agent’s Liens on, and security interest in, the Collateral, including, without limitation, all fees and taxes in connection with the recording or filing of instruments and documents in public offices, payment or discharge of any taxes or Liens upon or in respect of the Collateral, premiums for insurance with respect to the Collateral and all other fees, costs and expenses in connection with protecting, maintaining or preserving the

 

27


Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s interest therein, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise, or in defending or prosecuting any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to the Collateral.

(c) Without limiting the application of Section 9.1(a) or (b) hereof, each Assignor agrees, jointly and severally, to pay, indemnify and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any loss, costs, damages and expenses which such Indemnitee may suffer, expend or incur in consequence of or growing out of any misrepresentation by any Assignor in this Agreement, any other Notes Document or in any writing contemplated by or made or delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any other Notes Document.

It is expressly understood and agreed that the obligations of the Collateral Agent as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the Indenture. The Collateral Agent shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Indenture.

In the event of any conflict between the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

Section 11.14 Discretionary Action. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, whenever reference is made in this Agreement to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction, reasonable satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under this Agreement if it shall not have received such written instruction, advice or concurrence of the the Required Secured Creditors as it deems appropriate. This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns and is not intended to and will not entitle the other parties hereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any party hereto.
