SECTION 2.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor confirms its guarantee under Article II of the Original Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Loan Secured Parties, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment and performance of the Loan Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Loan Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Loan Obligation. Each Guarantor waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Grantor of any Loan Obligation, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor hereby further jointly and severally agrees that if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration

or otherwise) any of the Loan Obligations, such Guarantor will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Loan Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, it is intended that this Agreement, and any Liens granted hereunder by each Guarantor to secure the obligations and liabilities arising pursuant to this Agreement, not constitute a “Fraudulent Conveyance” (as defined below). Consequently, each Guarantor agrees that if this Agreement, or any Liens securing the obligations and liabilities arising pursuant to this Agreement, would, but for the application of this sentence and taking into account the provisions of Section 5.02, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, this Agreement and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause this Agreement or such Lien to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Agreement shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly at all relevant times. For purposes hereof, “Fraudulent Conveyance” means a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, nation or other governmental unit, as in effect from time to time.

SECTION 2.02. Guarantee of Payment. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and payable and not of collection, and waives any right (except such as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) to require that any resort be had by the Collateral Agent or any other Loan Secured Party to any security held for the payment of the Loan Obligations or to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other person.

(a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 7.14, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Loan Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Loan Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise, (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document (other than pursuant to the terms of a waiver, amendment, modification or release of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof) or any other agreement, including with respect to the release of any other Guarantor under this Agreement and so long as any such amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document is made in accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement, (iii) the release of, or any impairment of or failure to perfect any Lien on or security interest in, any security held by the Collateral Agent or any other Loan Secured Party for the Loan Obligations, (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Loan Obligations, or (v) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the occurrence of the Termination Date). Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Collateral Agent, in accordance with the Credit Agreement and applicable law, to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Loan Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in its sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Loan Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense (other than payment or performance of the Loan Obligations (other than contingent obligations), in full) based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Grantor or the unenforceability of the Loan Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Grantor, other than the occurrence of the Termination Date. The Collateral Agent and the other Loan Secured Parties may, in accordance with the Credit Agreement and applicable law, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Loan Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Grantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Grantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Termination Date has occurred. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Grantor, as the case may be, or any security.

SECTION 2.04. Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or shall be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time and for any reason payment, or any part thereof, of any Loan Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Collateral Agent or any other Loan Secured Party whether upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, any other Grantor, or otherwise, notwithstanding the occurrence of the Termination Date.

SECTION 2.05. Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Collateral Agent or any other Loan Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Grantor to pay any Loan Obligation when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally promises to and will promptly pay, or cause to be paid, to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the Loan Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Loan Obligation (other than payment of any contingent obligations). Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Collateral Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article V.

SECTION 2.06. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself reasonably informed of the Borrower’s and each other Grantor’s financial condition and assets and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Loan Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Loan Secured Party will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

SECTION 2.07. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Section 2 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Loan Secured Party, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

(a) As security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Loan Obligations (other than contingent obligations), each Grantor hereby confirms the pledge and grant to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns of the security interest of the Original Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, for the ratable benefit of the Loan Secured Parties, and as security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations), each Grantor hereby pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in all right, title or interest in or to any and all of the following assets and properties in each case whether tangible or intangible, wherever located, and now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (but excluding any Excluded Collateral, collectively, the “Collateral”):

(xix) to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds, all accessions to and substitutions and replacements for and products of any and all of the foregoing and all offsprings, rents profits and products of any of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any person with respect to any of the foregoing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Senior Secured Note Document, the Equity Interests and other securities of any direct or indirect subsidiary of Holdings that are owned by any Grantor will constitute Collateral securing Note Obligations for the benefit of Senior Secured Note Holders only to the extent that such Equity Interests and other securities can secure the Senior Secured Notes and/or the guarantees in respect thereof without Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act (or any other law, rule or regulation) requiring separate financial statements of such subsidiary to be filed with the SEC (or any other governmental agency). In the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act requires or is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would require) the filing with the SEC (or any other governmental agency) of separate financial statements of any subsidiary of Holdings due to the fact that such subsidiary’s Equity Interests and other securities secure the Senior Secured Notes and/or the related guarantees, then the Equity Interests and other securities of such subsidiary shall automatically be deemed not to be part of the Collateral securing the Note Obligations in favor of the Note Secured Parties (but only to the extent necessary to not be subject to such requirement) (any such Equity Interests or other securities, “Excluded Note Collateral”). In such event, the Security Documents may be amended or modified, without the consent of the Note Trustee, the Collateral Agent, any Senior Secured Note Holder or any holder of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, to the extent necessary to release the first-priority security interests in the shares of Equity Interests and other securities that are so deemed to no longer constitute part of the Collateral securing the Note Obligations in favor of the Note Secured Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, any such Equity Interests shall remain Collateral securing the Loan Obligations for the benefit of the Loan Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and this Agreement.

In the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC to permit (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation is adopted, which would permit) such subsidiary’s Equity Interests and other securities to secure the Senior Secured Notes and/or the related guarantees in excess of the amount then pledged without the filing with the SEC (or any other governmental agency) of separate financial statements of such subsidiary, then the Equity Interests and other securities of such subsidiary shall automatically be deemed to be a part of the Collateral securing the Note Obligations in favor of the Note Secured Parties (but only to the extent necessary to not be subject to any such financial statement requirement). In such event, the Security Documents may be amended or modified, without the consent of the Note Trustee, the Collateral Agent, any Senior Secured Note Holder or any holder of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, to the extent necessary to subject to the Liens under the Security Documents such additional Equity Interests and other securities.

This Section 3.01(b) shall apply mutatis mutandis to Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements (including fixture filings) with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that (i) indicate the Collateral as “all assets” of such Grantor or words of similar effect, and (ii) contain the information required by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including (x) whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor and (y) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing, a sufficient description of the real property to which such Collateral relates. Each Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon written request. The Collateral Agent agrees, upon request by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense, to promptly furnish copies of such filings to the Borrower.

(d) The Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office) such documents as may be necessary for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest granted by each Grantor, without the signature of any Grantor, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Collateral Agent as secured party. The Collateral Agent agrees, upon request by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense, to promptly furnish copies of such filings to the Borrower.

(e) The Security Interest is granted as security only and, except as otherwise required by applicable law, shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership, neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party 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 parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Collateral Agent shall become the owner of Pledged Collateral consisting of a limited liability company interest or a partnership interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party, any Grantor and/or any other Person.

The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Collateral, other than Permitted Liens.

(e) Schedule II correctly sets forth as of the Amendment No. 2 Closing Date the percentage of the issued and outstanding shares or units of each class of the Equity Interests of the issuer thereof represented by the Pledged Stock and includes all Equity Interests, debt securities and promissory notes required to be pledged hereunder.

(j) Each Grantor represents and warrants that the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights listed on Schedule III include all United States federal registrations and pending applications for Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights, all as in effect as of the Amendment No. 2 Closing Date, that such Grantor owns and that are material to the conduct of its business as of the Amendment No. 2 Closing Date.

(a) Subject to Section 3.02(i), each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Collateral against all persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien which does not constitute a Permitted Lien.

(b) Subject to Section 3.02(i), each Grantor agrees, upon written request by the Collateral Agent and at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably deem necessary to obtain, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and Taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing or continuation statements (including fixture filings) or other documents in connection herewith or therewith.

(c) At its option, but only following 5 Business Days’ written notice to each Grantor of its intent to do so unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due Taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens at any time levied or placed on the Collateral which do not constitute a Permitted Lien, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement and the Senior Secured Note Indenture, and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent within 30 days after written demand for any reasonable out-of-pocket payment made or any reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to Taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Transaction Documents.

(d) Each Grantor shall remain liable to observe and perform all conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Collateral, all in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

(e) In the case of each Grantor, such Grantor shall, promptly upon obtaining knowledge thereof, give notice to the Collateral Agent of any Commercial Tort Claim of such Grantor in which the damages being sought exceeds $1,000,000 and shall grant to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim. After such grant, such commercial tort claim shall be deemed to constitute Collateral for purposes of this Agreement.

(f) Subject to the following sentence, the Grantors will not (i) maintain any Inventory (other than such Collateral in transit) at any location other than those locations listed on Schedule VI (except for locations where the fair market value of Inventory at any such location does not exceed $2,000,000 and the aggregate fair market value of Inventory at all such locations does not exceed $10,000,000), (ii) otherwise change, or add to, such locations, or (iii) change their respective principal places of business or chief executive offices from the location identified on Schedule VI. Each Grantor will give the Collateral Agent at least ten (10) days prior written notice (or such shorter notice to which the Collateral Agent has consented in writing) of any new principal place of business or chief executive office or any new location for any of its Inventory, except for locations where the market value of Inventory stored or warehoused at any such new location does not exceed $2,000,000 and the aggregate market value of Inventory, stored or warehoused at all such new locations (together with all other locations not listed on Schedule VI) does not exceed $10,000,000 (such locations, “Excluded Locations”). With respect to any such new location (excluding Excluded Locations), such Grantor will execute such documents and take such actions as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary to perfect and protect the Liens granted under the Collateral Documents and, if requested by the Collateral Agent, will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement for each such location.

(i) The Grantors will deliver to the Collateral Agent promptly upon its request after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default duplicate invoices with respect to each Account bearing such language of assignment as the Collateral Agent shall specify.

SECTION 3.04. Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Security Interest in the Collateral, each Grantor agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Collateral:

(a) Instruments. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments in excess of $1,000,000 individually, such Grantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of endorsement, transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably specify.

(b) Investment Property. Subject to the terms hereof, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Certificated Securities, to the extent the same do not constitute Excluded Collateral, such Grantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably specify. Each delivery of Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities, which schedule shall be attached hereto as Schedule II and made a part hereof and supplement any prior schedule so delivered; provided that failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Securities and shall not in and of itself result in any Default or Event of Default. Each certificate representing an interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 3.01 shall be physically delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and endorsed to the Collateral Agent or endorsed in blank.

(c) Security Interests in Property of Account Debtors. If at any time any Grantor shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or any other Person the value of which equals or exceeds $250,000 to secure payment of an Account, such Grantor shall promptly assign such security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Such assignment need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.

(d) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Grantor is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit having an individual face amount in an amount in excess of $250,000, the applicable Grantor shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after becoming a beneficiary, notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, if requested to do so by the Collateral Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer and/or confirmation bank to (i) consent to the assignment of any Letter-of-Credit Rights to the Collateral Agent and (ii) agree to direct all payments thereunder to a Deposit Account of the Collateral Agent or subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. Unless requested by the Collateral Agent following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that the amount of any such letter of credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other letters of credit for which the actions described above in clause (i) and (ii) have not been taken, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Grantors.

SECTION 3.05. Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest, Etc. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and, except in the case of a Bankruptcy Default, the Collateral Agent shall have given the Grantors prior written notice of its intent to exercise its rights under this Agreement:

(a) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and applicable law and no notice of any such voting or exercise of any consensual rights and powers need be given to the Collateral Agent.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and delivered to each Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a) above.

(c) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are not prohibited by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents and applicable law; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Collateral shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent) on or prior to the later to occur of (i) 30 days following the receipt thereof and (ii) the earlier of the date of the required delivery of the Pricing Certificate following the receipt of such items and the date which is 45 days after the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter (or such longer period as to which the Collateral Agent may consent).

SECTION 3.06. Additional Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral.

(a) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor agrees that it will not do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any Patent that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business may become invalidated or dedicated to the public, other than the expiration of such Patent at the end of its natural term, subject to such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment.

(b) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor (either itself or through its licensees or its sublicensees) will, for each registered Trademark that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such Trademark registration in full force free from any legally binding determination of abandonment or invalidity of such Trademark registration due to nonuse, subject to such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment.

(c) Except to the extent failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and subject to each Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, each Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps that are consistent with the practice in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and the United States Copyright Office, to maintain and pursue each material application relating to the Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights (and to obtain the relevant grant or registration) and to maintain each issued Patent and each registration of the Trademarks and Copyrights that is material to the conduct of any Grantor’s business, including timely filings of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance fees, and, if consistent with good business judgment, to initiate opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties.

(d) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership interest in any Intellectual Property (other than any Excluded Collateral) after the date hereof, to the extent that such Intellectual Property would be a part of the Collateral under the terms of this Agreement had it been

owned by such Grantor as of the date hereof, (“After-Acquired Intellectual Property”), (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby shall automatically become part of the Collateral, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Within 90 days after the end of each calendar year (or such longer period as to which the Collateral Agent may consent), the relevant Grantor shall sign and deliver to the Collateral Agent an appropriate Intellectual Property Security Agreement with respect to all applicable United States federally registered (or application for United States federally registered) After-Acquired Intellectual Property owned by it as of the last day of applicable fiscal quarter, to the extent that such Intellectual Property becomes part of the Collateral and to the extent that it is not covered by any previous Intellectual Property Security Agreement so signed and delivered by it.

If requested by the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement, from the lessor of each leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee or consignee with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location where Inventory are stored or located (except for such locations where the value of Inventory stored or located at any such location does not exceed $2,000,000 so long as the aggregate value of Inventory does not exceed $10,000,000 for all such locations).

Each Grantor will provide to the Collateral Agent within 60 days of the Collateral Agent’s request (or such longer period as to which the Collateral Agent may consent), a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly executed on behalf of each financial institution holding a deposit account (other than an Excluded Deposit Account) of such Grantor as set forth in this Agreement.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and with prior written notice to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to hold the Pledged Securities in its own name as pledgee, the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent) or the name of the applicable Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent. Subject to the Term/Revolving Intercreditor Agreement and Section 4.06 with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral (as therein defined), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and with prior written notice to the relevant Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall at all times have the right to exchange the certificates representing any Pledged Securities for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (c) of Section 3.05 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and

retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of Section 3.05 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Grantor and shall be promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent upon written demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or instrument of assignment). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each applicable Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (c) of Section 3.05 and that remain in such account.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a) of Section 3.05, and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (b) of Section 3.05, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided, however, that unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders and Required Noteholders, the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default and the provision of the notice referred to above to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. To the extent the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (c) has been given, after all Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Grantor shall have the exclusive right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a) of Section 3.05, and the Collateral Agent shall again have the obligations under paragraph (b) of Section 3.05.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.01, if a Bankruptcy Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to give any notice referred to in Section 3.05 or this Section 4.01 in order to exercise any of its rights described in said Sections, and the suspension of the rights of each of the Grantors under said Sections shall be automatic upon the occurrence of such Bankruptcy Default.

SECTION 4.02. Uniform Commercial Code and Other Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver each item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent on written demand, and it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to take any of or all the following actions at the same or different times: (a) with respect to any Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on written demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Collateral (provided that such assignment, transfer or conveyance of any Collateral consisting of Trademarks includes an assignment, transfer or conveyance of the goodwill associated with such Trademarks) by the applicable Grantor to the Collateral Agent, or to license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then-existing licensing arrangements), (b) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Collateral without breach of the peace, and subject to the terms of any related lease agreement, to enter any premises where the Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Collateral, and (c) generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect in the applicable jurisdiction, or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory

requirements of applicable law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange upon such commercially reasonable terms and conditions as it may deem necessary, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. The Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it necessary to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.

The Collateral Agent shall give each applicable Grantor 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by applicable law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations (other than contingent obligations) paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.

Until the Termination Date, each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated in writing by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) for the purpose, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required under the Credit Agreement or the Senior Secured Note Indenture or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may upon prior written notice to such Grantor, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of any Grantor hereunder or any Default or Event of Default, in its sole discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Collateral Agent deems necessary. All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this paragraph, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon written demand as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement or any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture or any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Obligations secured hereby.

SECTION 4.03. Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing the Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral in accordance with the Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement or, (i) if the Loan Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent obligations) but only one class of Note Obligations or Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations remains outstanding, in accordance with the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or applicable Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable, or (ii) if the Note Obligations and Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent obligations) but the Loan Obligations remain outstanding, in accordance with the Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

SECTION 4.04. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights and remedies in this Article IV at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent (until the termination of this Agreement and subject to Section 7.14) an irrevocable nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors), subject in all respects to any Licenses to use, license or sublicense any of the Collateral consisting of know how, Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks, now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Collateral Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided, however, that any license or sublicense entered into by the Collateral Agent with a third party in accordance with this Section 4.04 shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default, except to the extent that such license or sublicense would invalidate or render unenforceable any such Grantor’s Intellectual Property.

SECTION 4.05. Securities Act, Etc. In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the Pledged Collateral, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Collateral Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Collateral under applicable “blue sky” or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Grantor recognizes that to the extent such restrictions and limitations apply to any proposed sale of Pledged Collateral, the Collateral Agent may, with respect to any sale of such Pledged Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that to the extent such restrictions and limitations apply to any proposed sale of Pledged Collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws and (b) may approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers (including a single potential purchaser) to effect such sale. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a limited number of purchasers (or a single purchaser) were approached. The provisions of this Section 4.05 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Collateral Agent sells.

SECTION 5.01. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 5.03), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall be made by any Guarantor under this Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of any Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part a claim of any Secured Party, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold.

SECTION 5.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 5.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Loan Obligation, or assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy any Loan Obligation owed to any Loan Secured Party, and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 5.01, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an

amount equal to (i) the amount of such payment or (ii) the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as the case may be, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.16, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under Section 5.01 to the extent of such payment.

SECTION 5.03. Subordination. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 5.01 and 5.02 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the Loan Obligations until the Termination Date; provided, that if any amount shall be paid to such Guarantors on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Loan Secured Parties and shall promptly be paid to the Collateral Agent to be credited and applied against the Loan Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 5.01 and 5.02 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 7.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement or after the Loan Obligations have been paid in full, in accordance with the Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement or, if only one class of Note Obligations or Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations remains outstanding, in accordance with the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or applicable Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable. All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 7.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Grantors herein or in any other Transaction Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders, the Senior Secured Noteholders and the holders of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations and shall survive the making by the Lenders of any Loans and the extension of credit or purchase by the Senior Secured Note Holders and holders of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, regardless of any investigation made by any Lender, any such Senior Secured Note Holder or any such holder of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any such Senior Secured Note Holder may have had notice or actual knowledge of any Default at the time of the making of such Loans or such extension or purchase, as applicable, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date.

SECTION 7.03. Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Grantors and the Collateral Agent and when the Collateral Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Grantor hereunder.

SECTION 7.04. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

(a) The parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement and any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture and any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable.

(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Transaction Documents, each Grantor agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and the other Indemnitees as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement and any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture and any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable.

(c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.05 shall survive the Termination Date.

(a) Until the Termination Date, each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (i) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof, (ii) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral, (iii) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral, (iv) to send verifications of Accounts to any Account Debtor, (v) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral, (vi) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral, (vii) to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent, (viii) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral (provided that any sale, assignment or transfer of Collateral consisting of Trademarks includes a sale, assignment or transfer of the goodwill associated

with such Trademarks), (ix) to apply the proceeds of any Obligations as provided in Article IV, (x) to exercise all of such Grantor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other Collateral, (xi) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor’s name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, (xii) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables, (xiii) to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to such Grantor to such Address as the Collateral Agent may designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor and (ix) to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith. The foregoing powers of attorney being coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until the Security Interest shall have terminated in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, under this Section 7.06 are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers.

(c) Following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may, in the Collateral Agent’s own name or in the name of a nominee of the Collateral Agent, communicate (by mail, telephone, facsimile or otherwise) with the Account Debtors of such Grantors, parties to contracts with the Grantors and obligors in respect of Instruments of the Grantors to verify with such Persons, to the Collateral Agent’s reasonable satisfaction, the existence, amount, terms of, and any other matter relating to, Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper, payment intangibles and/or other Receivables.

SECTION 7.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(a) No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or consent to any departure by any Secured Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 7.08, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the

purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date nor the purchase of the Senior Secured Notes shall be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. Except as otherwise provided herein, no notice or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle any Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Grantors that are party thereto and are affected by such waiver, amendment or modification, subject to Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement and any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture and any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agent, on behalf of itself and holders of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations, may become party to this Agreement, without any further action by any other party hereto, upon execution and delivery by the Borrower and such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agent of a properly completed joinder agreement hereto (which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent) and (ii) technical modifications may be made to this Agreement to facilitate the inclusion of Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations without any further action by any other party hereto to the extent such Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations are permitted to be incurred under the Loan Documents and the Senior Secured Note Documents.

SECTION 7.09. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO (AND EACH OTHER SECURED PARTY BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS HEREOF) HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.09.

SECTION 7.10. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 7.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 7.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile, PDF or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.12. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

(a) Each of the parties hereto and the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America, sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto and the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto and the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents against any Grantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b) Each of the parties hereto and the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto and the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c) Each party hereto and the Secured Parties, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(a) This Agreement, the Guarantees made herein, the Security Interest, the pledge of the Pledged Collateral and all other security interests granted hereby (including, without limitation, the licenses granted by the Grantors and the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4.04) shall automatically terminate on the Termination Date. The Security Interest in the Collateral securing the applicable Note Obligations shall also be released on the terms set forth in the Senior Secured Note Indenture or the applicable Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable.

(b) Any Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Security Interests created hereunder in the Collateral of such Guarantor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Senior Secured Note Indenture as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Guarantor under Section 2.01 and a guarantor of the Note Obligations.

(c) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Secured Note Indenture and each Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement to any person that is not a Grantor, or, upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the Security Interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 4.08 of the Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement or, (i) if the Loan Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent obligations) but only one class of Note Obligations or Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations remains outstanding, in accordance with the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or applicable Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable, or (ii) if the Note Obligations and the Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent obligations) but the Loan Obligations remain outstanding, in accordance with the Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement, the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released, and the licenses granted by the Grantors and the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4.04 shall be automatically terminated.

(d) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c) above, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all Uniform Commercial Code termination statements and similar documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.14 shall be without recourse to or representation or warranty by the Collateral Agent (other than any representation and warranty that the Collateral Agent has the authority to execute and deliver such documents) or any Secured Party. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.05, the Borrower shall reimburse the Collateral Agent upon written demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the fees, charges and expenses of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 7.14 as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement and any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture and any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable.

(e) At any time that the respective Grantor desires that the Collateral Agent take any action described in preceding paragraph (d) above, it shall, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent an officer’s certificate certifying that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c). The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any Secured Party as the result of any release of Collateral by it as permitted (or which the Collateral Agent in good faith believes to be permitted) by this Section 7.14.

SECTION 7.16. Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement and any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture and any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable, each wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Foreign Subsidiary, an Excluded Subsidiary, or a Domestic Subsidiary that is a disregarded entity for United States federal income tax purposes owned by a non-disregarded non-United States entity) that was not in existence or not a subsidiary on the date hereof is required to enter into this Agreement as a Subsidiary Guarantor and a Grantor upon becoming such a subsidiary. Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral Agent and such subsidiary of a supplement in the form of Exhibit A hereto, such subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor and a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Guarantor and a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 7.17. Security Interest and Obligations Absolute. Subject to Section 7.14 hereof, all rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Security Interest, the grant of a security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, the Senior Secured Note Indenture, any other Transaction Document, any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, the Senior Secured Note Indenture, any other Transaction Document, or any other agreement or instrument (so long as the same are made in accordance with the terms of Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement and any comparable provision of the Senior Secured Note Indenture and any Other Pari Passu Lien Obligations Agreement, as applicable), (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement other than payment of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations), in full.

SECTION 7.18. Effectiveness of Merger. Upon the consummation of the Merger, the Borrower shall succeed to all the rights and obligations of Merger Sub under this Agreement, without any further action by any Person.

SECTION 7.19. Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the Term/Note Intercreditor Agreement shall control and govern.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

Incorporated (as successor to Lehman Commercial Paper Inc.), as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) for the Secured Parties (as defined therein).

B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement referred to therein, as applicable.

C. The Grantors have entered into the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and to induce the initial purchasers of the Senior Secured Notes to purchase the Senior Secured Notes. Section 7.16 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement provides that certain additional Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become Subsidiary Guarantors and Grantors under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement and the Senior Secured Note Indenture to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and a Grantor under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as consideration for Loans previously made.

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 7.16 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Grantor and Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Grantor and Subsidiary Guarantor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms

and provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor and Subsidiary Guarantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor and Subsidiary Guarantor thereunder are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof (for this purpose, as though references therein to the Closing Date were to the date hereof). In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the payment in full of the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), does hereby create and grant to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, their successors and permitted assigns, a security interest in and lien on all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement). Each reference to a “Grantor” or a “Subsidiary Guarantor” in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Collateral Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that, when taken together, bear the signatures of the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile, PDF or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

SECTION 4. The New Subsidiary hereby represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties that as of the date hereof (a) Schedule I attached hereto correctly sets forth (i) any and all Equity Interests and Pledged Debt Securities now owned by the New Subsidiary, (ii) any and all Intellectual Property now owned by the New Subsidiary, (iii) the locations of Collateral owned by the New Subsidiary, (iv) the Deposit Accounts maintained by the New Subsidiary and (iv) Letter of Credit Rights and Chattel Paper of the New Subsidiary and (b) set forth under its signature hereto, is the exact legal name (as such name appears on its certificate or articles of incorporation or formation) of the New Subsidiary and its jurisdiction of organization.

SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF).

SECTION 7. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement or Section 14.02 of the Senior Secured Note Indenture. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Subsidiary shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement as provided in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement and Section 7.07 of the Senior Secured Note Indenture.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
