the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any person liable for the payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon except in the ordinary course of business (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent shall have instructed the Grantors not to grant or make any such extension, credit, discount, compromise, or settlement under any circumstances during the continuance of such Event of Default).

5.2. Communications with Account Debtors; Grantors Remain Liable.

(a) Subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, communicate with Account Debtors under the Accounts to verify with them to the Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts. The Agent shall have the absolute right to share any information it gains from such inspection or verification with any Secured Party.

(b) Subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, upon the written request of the Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify Account Debtors on the Accounts that the Accounts have been assigned to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Agent.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the receipt by the Agent or any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Agent or any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor 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 it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

5.3. Proceeds To Be Turned Over to Agent. In addition to the rights of the Agent and the other Secured Parties specified in subsection 5.1 with respect to payments of Accounts, subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Agent so requires by notice in writing to the relevant Grantor, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Agent hereunder shall be held by the Agent in a collateral deposit account maintained under its sole dominion and control and on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Agent (the “Collateral Deposit Account”). All Proceeds while held by the Agent in a Collateral

-13-

Deposit Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Agent and the Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in subsection 5.4.

5.4. Application of Proceeds. (a) Subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds received by the Agent of any collection or sale of the Collateral as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, at any time after receipt shall be applied as follows:

(i) first, to pay amounts owing to the Agent (in its capacity as such) pursuant to this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to preceding clause (i), to the payment of the Obligations in the order or preference provided for in the Credit Agreement; and

(iii) third, the balance, if any, to the Grantors or such other persons entitled thereto.

Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the 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 Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.

If, despite the provisions of this Section 5.4, any Secured Party shall receive any payment or other recovery in excess of its portion of payments on account of the Obligations to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Section 5.4, such Secured Party shall hold such payment or recovery in trust for the benefit of all Secured Parties for distribution in accordance with this Section 5.4.

(b) It is understood that the Grantors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Obligations.

(c) It is understood and agreed by all parties hereto that the Agent shall have no liability for any determinations made by it in this Section 5.4. The parties also agree that the Agent may (but shall not be required to and shall have no liability for not doing so), at any time and in its sole discretion, and with no liability resulting therefrom, petition a court of competent jurisdiction regarding any application of Collateral in accordance with the requirements hereof and of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, and the Agent shall be entitled to wait for, and may conclusively rely on, any such determination.

(d) Each of the Secured Parties acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding the date, time or creation of any Liens securing any of the Obligations under this Security Agreement or the other Security Documents, the Obligations shall be equally and ratably secured by the Liens

-14-

of this Security Agreement and the Security Documents and all Liens securing any of the Obligations (and any proceeds received from the enforcement of any such Liens) shall be for the equal and ratable benefit of all Secured Parties and shall be applied as provided in clause (a) above. Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereunder and of the Security Documents, hereby agrees for the benefit of the other Secured Parties that, to the extent any additional or substitute collateral for any of the Obligations is delivered by a Grantor to or for the benefit of any Secured Party, such collateral shall be subject to the provisions of this clause (d).

(e) Each of the Secured Parties hereby agrees not to challenge or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any Security Document (in each case as a whole or any term or provision contained therein) or the validity of any Lien or financing statement in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as provided in this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, or the relative priority of any such Lien.

5.5. Code and Other Remedies.

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC or any other Applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Agent may take such steps as it considers necessary or desirable to obtain possession of all or any part of the Collateral (including without limitation any books and records relating to the Collateral) and, to that end, each Grantor agrees that the Agent, its servants or agents or Receiver (as hereinafter defined) may, at any time, during the day or night, enter upon lands and premises where the Collateral may be found for the purpose of taking possession of and/or removing the Collateral or any part thereof. In the event of the Agent taking possession of the Collateral, or any part thereof, the Agent shall have the right to maintain the same upon the premises on which the Collateral may then be situate. The Agent may without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange broker’s board or at any of the Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such price or prices and upon such other terms as are commercially reasonable irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Collateral. The Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers of Collateral 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 Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Agent or any Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, and the Agent or such Secured Party may subject to (x) the satisfaction in full in cash of all payments due pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and (y) the ratable satisfaction

-15-

of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement pay the purchase price by crediting the amount thereof against the Obligations. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against the Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Agent’s request and at such Grantor’s sole expense, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Agent at places which the Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this subsection 5.5 in accordance with the provisions of subsection 5.4.

(b) The Agent may, in addition to any other rights it may have, appoint by instrument in writing a receiver or receiver and manager (both of which are herein called a "Receiver") of all or any part of the Collateral or may institute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of such a Receiver. Any such Receiver is hereby given and shall have the same powers and rights and exclusions and limitations of liability as the Agent may have under this Security Agreement, at law or in equity. In exercising any such powers, any such Receiver shall, to the extent permitted by law, act as and for all purposes shall be deemed to be the agent of each Grantor, and the Agent shall not be responsible for any act or default of any such Receiver. The Agent may appoint one or more Receivers hereunder and may remove any such Receiver or Receivers and appoint another or others in his or their stead from time to time. Any Receiver so appointed may be an officer or employee of the Agent or any of the Lenders. A court need not appoint or ratify the appointment by the Agent of or otherwise supervise in any manner the actions of any Receiver. Upon any Grantor receiving notice from the Agent of the taking of possession of the Collateral or the appointment of a Receiver, all powers, functions, rights and privileges of each of the directors and officers of such Grantor with respect to the Collateral shall cease, unless specifically continued by the written consent of the Agent.

5.6. Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for (a) any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and (b) the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Agent or any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

5.7. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. Each Grantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Grantor and without notice to or further assent by any Grantor, (a) any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by such party and any of the Obligations continued, (b) the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset

-16-

with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) the Credit Agreement, Notes, the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, and (d) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Security Agreement or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any Grantor, the Agent or any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the U.S. Borrower or any other Grantor or grantor, and any failure by the Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the U.S. Borrower or any other Grantor or grantor or any release of the U.S. Borrower or any Grantor or grantor shall not relieve any Grantor in respect of which a demand or collection is not made or any Grantor not so released of its several obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Agent or any other Secured Party against any Grantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

5.8. Suretyship Waivers by the Grantors. Each Grantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Security Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered, notice of any Obligations incurred and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Security Agreement and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure against any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person (including any other Grantor) or any Collateral securing the Obligations or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description. With respect to both the Obligations and the Collateral, each Grantor assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Agent may deem advisable. Each Grantor further waives any and all other suretyship defenses and all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law, or other similar law now or hereafter in effect.

5.9. Marshaling. Neither the Agent nor any Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the rights and remedies of the Agent or any Secured Party hereunder and of the Agent or any Secured Party in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Agent's rights and remedies under

-17-

this Security Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

6. The Agent.

6.1. Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby appoints, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, the Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, either in the Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, without assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Account or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Account or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable, and exercise all of such Grantor’s rights and remedies in and to, and to collect any, Collateral or the products and Proceeds thereof;

(viii) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral;

(ix) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral (with such Grantor’s consent to the extent such action or its resolution could materially affect such Grantor or any of its Affiliates in any manner other than with respect to its continuing rights in such Collateral);

(x) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Agent may deem appropriate (with such Grantor’s consent to the extent such action or its resolution could materially affect such Grantor or any of its Affiliates in any manner other than with respect to its continuing rights in such Collateral) and discharge or release any Account;

(xi) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew an Account;

(xii) notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of remittances from Account Debtors or other obligors in respect of Accounts or other proceeds of Collateral to an address designated by the Agent, and open and dispose of all mail addressed to any such Grantor and handle and store all mail relating to the Accounts;

(xiii) take control in any manner of any item of payment in respect of Accounts or constituting Accounts Collateral or otherwise received in or for deposit in the applicable deposit account subject to a Control Agreement or otherwise received by the Agent;

(xiv) have access to any lockbox or postal box into which remittances from Account Debtors or other obligors in respect of Accounts or other proceeds of Collateral are sent or received; and

(xv) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Collateral, including, without limitation, Accounts, as fully and completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things that the Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the

-19-

Collateral and the Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ Security Interests therein and to effect the intent of this Security Agreement or the other Security Documents, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

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

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein or in any other Security Document, the Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The expenses of the Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this subsection 6.1, together with interest thereon at the rate set forth in Section 3.1.1(c) of the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Agent on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Security Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Security Agreement is terminated and the Security Interests created hereby are released.

6.2. Duty of Agent. The Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Agent accords its own property. Neither the Agent, any Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder or pursuant to the other Security Documents are solely to protect the Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder or pursuant to the other Security Documents, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise

-20-

perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Agent in good faith.

The Agent shall not be responsible (a) for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral, (b) for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Agent, (c) for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, (d) for the validity of the title of any Grantor to the Collateral, (e) for insuring the Collateral, (f) for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral, or (g) otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

Notwithstanding anything in this Security Agreement to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, the Agent shall have no duty to act outside of the United States in respect of any Collateral located in any jurisdiction other than the United States.

6.3. Authority of Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Agent under this Security Agreement or the other Security Documents with respect to any action taken by the Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Security Agreement or the other Security Documents shall, as between the Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Agent and the Grantors, the Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

6.4. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Agent hereunder and under the other Security Documents, the Security Interest and all Obligations of the Grantors hereunder and under the other Security Documents shall be absolute and unconditional.

6.5. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments Under the Credit Agreement; Release.

(a) This Security Agreement and the other Security Documents shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Grantor and the successors and assigns thereof and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns until the Final Date. In addition, the security interests granted hereunder shall terminate and be released, in whole or in part, upon the Discharge of Obligations.

(b) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), the Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all documents that such

-21-

Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this subsection 6.5 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Agent.

6.6. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement and the other Security Documents shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Agent or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

7. Agent As Agent.

(a) Bank of America, N.A. has been appointed to act as Agent under the Credit Agreement by the Lenders and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof and the other Security Documents, the other Secured Parties. The Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder and under the other Security Documents, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Security Agreement, the other Security Documents, the Credit Agreement and any applicable Intercreditor Agreement; provided that, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for herein, including in Section 5, in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this subsection 7(a), each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder or pursuant to the other Security Documents, may be exercised solely by the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this subsection 7(a).

(b) The Agent shall at all times be the same Person that is the Agent under the Credit Agreement. Written notice of resignation by the Agent pursuant to Section 12.8 of the Credit Agreement shall also constitute notice of resignation as Agent under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents; removal of the Agent shall also constitute removal as Agent under this Security Agreement or the other Security Documents; and appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to Section 12.8 of the Credit Agreement shall also constitute appointment of a successor Agent under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent under Section 12.8 of the Credit Agreement by a successor Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, and the retiring or removed Agent under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Agent under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Agent

-22-

or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Agent of the Security Interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents. After any retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents shall inure to such Agent’s benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it or its designees under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents while it was Agent hereunder, or after such resignation or removal for so long as the Agent or its designees continue to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

8. Miscellaneous.

8.1. Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the affected Grantor and the Agent in accordance with Section 14.1 of the Credit Agreement.

8.2. Notices. All notices, requests and demands pursuant hereto shall, if to the Agent or the U.S. Borrower, be made in accordance with Section 14.3 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Grantor shall be given to it in care of the U.S. Borrower at the U.S. Borrower’s address set forth in Section 14.3 of the Credit Agreement.

8.3. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Agent nor any Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to subsection 8.1 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that the Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

8.4. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Each Grantor agrees to pay any and all expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that may be paid or incurred by any Secured Party in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, such Grantor under this Security Agreement or any other Security Document.

-23-

(b) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Agent and the Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement or any other Security Document.

In furtherance of the foregoing, each New Grantor, as security for the payment and performance in full of the Obligations, does hereby bargain, sell, convey, assign, set over, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate and transfer to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
