Beyond reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or from any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency, or other agent selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith.

Without limitation to the foregoing, any Lender or Issuing Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any Note, Loan or other Secured Obligation, held by it to any other Person, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted herein. Upon the occurrence of the event described in Section 2.5(b) above, the security interest granted herein shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Pledgors, as applicable. Upon any such termination, the Administrative Agent will, at the Pledgors’ expense, execute and deliver to the Pledgors such documents as the Pledgors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination, without recourse or warranty to the Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE 3
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
          SECTION 3.1. Representations and Warranties. Each Pledgor represents and warrants as follows:
     (a) The Pledgor is and at all times will be the legal and beneficial owner of, and has and will have at all times good and marketable title to (and has and will at all times have full right and authority to pledge and assign), all Collateral pledged hereunder by such Pledgor, free and clear of all Liens or other charges or encumbrances, except, in each case, as otherwise permitted under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

     (c) The Pledged Interests have been duly authorized and validly issued, and are fully paid, and (except insofar as not the case in regard to a Foreign Subsidiary) nonassessable.

     (d) Except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Pledged Interests constitute, and at all applicable times thereafter more fully described in the Credit Agreement, the Aggregate Equity Pledge Threshold will be met, and the Pledged Interests will constitute (a) 100% of all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the Material Domestic Subsidiaries directly owned by the Pledgor and (b) 65% of all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of any first tier Material Foreign Subsidiaries directly owned by the Pledgor, when combined with the Pledged Interests of all other Pledgors with respect to such Foreign Subsidiary.

     Pledgors shall provide a supplement to, or replacement of, Schedule I in connection with any additional pledge hereunder, or to reflect any change of information in Schedule I, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Each such delivery shall be deemed a representation and warranty by each Pledgor that such supplement or replacement is true and correct as of such date of delivery. Without limiting such obligation, if Pledgors fail to deliver such supplement or replacement, the Administrative Agent may unilaterally supplement or replace Schedule I to reflect any additional pledge hereunder or to reflect any changed information in Schedule I; provided, that failure to so supplement Schedule I in writing shall not invalidate any additional pledged shares’ status as Pledged Interests.
     (f) Except for compliance with the requirements of Section 5.7, and except as may be required in connection with any Material Foreign Subsidiary, no authorization, approval, or other action by and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority is or will be required either:
          (i) for the pledge by the Pledgor of any Collateral pursuant to this Agreement or for the execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement by the Pledgor, or
          (ii) for the exercise by the Administrative Agent of the voting or other rights provided for in and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement (except, with respect to any Pledged Interests, as may be required in connection with a disposition of such Pledged Interests by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally).
     (g) As of the Closing Date, (i) 100% of the Capital Stock of each Material Domestic Subsidiary (other than the Capital Stock of any Domestic Subsidiary owned directly by a Foreign Subsidiary on the Closing Date) and 65% of each first tier Material Foreign Subsidiary is pledged under this Agreement, and (ii) sufficient shares of Capital Stock are pledged hereunder to meet the Aggregate Equity Pledge Threshold.
          SECTION 3.2. Warranties upon Pledge of Additional Collateral. Each Pledgor shall be deemed to restate (as to the respective additional Collateral) each representation and warranty set forth in Section 3.1 as at the date of each pledge hereunder by such Pledgor to the Administrative Agent of any additional Collateral.

No Pledgor will sell, assign, transfer, pledge or encumber in any other manner the Collateral (except in favor of the Administrative Agent hereunder, or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement). Each Pledgor will warrant and defend the right, title and security interest herein granted to the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral (and all right, title and interest represented by the Collateral) against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. Each Pledgor agrees that at any time, and from time to time, at the expense of the Pledgor, the Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments, and take all further action, that may be necessary, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.
          SECTION 4.2. Issuance of Equity Interests. No Pledgor will, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, cause or permit the Subsidiaries that have issued any Equity Interests pledged hereunder to issue or grant any warrants, options of any nature or other instruments convertible into any class of Equity Interests or issue any additional Equity Interests or sell or transfer any treasury Equity Interests, except that any Subsidiary may issue Equity Interests to the Pledgor if such Pledgor assures such Equity Interests are pledged hereunder and become a part of the Collateral to the extent required, and at the time(s) required, by Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement, and in the case of any Subsidiary that is not a Domestic Subsidiary except for any qualifying Equity Interest required to be issued to directors, managers or officers of such Subsidiary under applicable law. Such Pledgor will notify the Administrative Agent within the time periods required to effect additional pledges as set forth in Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement with respect to any such additional Pledged Interests, and of any additional Subsidiary formed or acquired after the date hereof (the Equity Interests of which shall likewise become additional Pledged Interests hereunder, subject to the limitation on the pledging of Equity Interests of Foreign Subsidiaries contained in the definition of “Pledged Interests”), and within the applicable time periods set forth in section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement, cause such Pledged Interests, together with signed transfer powers and proxies, in the form of Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, attached hereto (or in such other form consented to by the Administrative Agent), and such other documents and instruments as the Administrative Agent may require in its reasonable discretion, to be delivered into the Administrative Agent’s possession, and take all other steps deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion to perfect the first-priority security interest of the Administrative Agent in such additional Pledged Interests.
          SECTION 4.3. Taxes. The Pledgors will pay all taxes, assessments and charges levied, assessed or imposed upon the Collateral before the same become delinquent or become Liens upon any of the Collateral except where the same may be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and as to which adequate reserves have been provided.
          SECTION 4.4. Transfer Powers. Each Pledgor agrees that all certificated Pledged Interests (and all other certificated Equity Interests constituting Collateral) included as Collateral and delivered by the Pledgor to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement will be accompanied by all necessary instruments of transfer or assignment requested by the Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit A hereto (or such other form consented to by the Administrative Agent), duly executed in blank and, if the Administrative Agent shall so request, with signatures guaranteed by a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or by a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States. Thereafter, each Pledgor will, upon

7


 

the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly deliver to it such transfer powers, instruments and similar documents, satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent, with respect to the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and will, from time to time upon the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly transfer any Pledged Interests or other Equity Interests, including all Distributions, constituting Collateral pledged by such Pledgor into the name of the Administrative Agent or any nominee designated by the Administrative Agent.
          SECTION 4.5. Continuous Pledge. Each Pledgor will at all times keep pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto all Pledged Interests, all Dividends received during the existence of an Event of Default and Distributions with respect thereto, and all other Collateral pledged by such Pledgor, except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
          SECTION 4.6. Voting Rights; Dividends. In addition, each Pledgor agrees that:
     (a) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or if any Default or Event of Default shall occur as a result thereof, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Pledgor and without any request therefor by the Administrative Agent, the Pledgor shall deliver (properly endorsed where required hereby or requested by the Administrative Agent) to the Administrative Agent all Dividends received on account of Collateral, all of which shall be held by the Administrative Agent as additional Collateral for use in accordance with Section 5.5;
     (b) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon notice to the Pledgor by the Administrative Agent, all rights of the Pledgor to exercise or refrain from exercising voting or other consensual rights in respect of the Collateral shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights; and
     (c) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent, the Pledgor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent such proxies and other documents as may be necessary to allow the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights with respect to any Collateral pledged by such Pledgor.
Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise, in its reasonable judgment, but in a manner not inconsistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document (including this Agreement), the voting powers and all other incidental rights of ownership with respect to any Pledged Interests or other Equity Interests constituting Collateral (subject to the Pledgor’s obligation to deliver to the Administrative Agent such Pledged Interests and other Equity Interests in pledge hereunder to the extent required to be included as Collateral) and to the receipt of all Dividends. All Dividends, Distributions, cash payments and Proceeds which the Pledgor is then obligated to deliver to the Administrative Agent, shall, until delivery to the Administrative Agent, be held by the Pledgor separate and apart from its other property in trust for the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request of any Pledgor, promptly deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as shall be reasonably requested by the Pledgor which are necessary to allow the Pledgor to exercise voting power with respect to any unit of Equity Interests (including Pledged Interests) constituting Collateral; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver or ratification given, or action taken by the Pledgor that would impair in any material respect any Collateral or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document (including this Agreement).
          SECTION 4.7. Additional Information. Each Pledgor will furnish to the

8


 

Administrative Agent and the Lenders written notice of the occurrence of any event which would make any representation contained in Article 3 untrue at such time.
ARTICLE 5
EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES
     SECTION 5.1. Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder:
     (a) if there shall occur any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement;
     (b) if any of the Collateral shall be levied upon or seized in any legal proceeding, or held by virtue of any Lien or distress, or any Lien other than a Lien permitted under the Credit Agreement shall attach to any of the Collateral; or
     (c) if any representation or warranty of any Pledgor set forth herein shall be untrue in any material respect; or
     (d) if any Pledgor shall fail to observe or perform any covenant or agreement contained in Section 4.1 of this Agreement; or
     (e) if any Pledgor shall fail to observe or perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement (other than those referred to in clause (d) above), and such failure shall remain unremedied for 30 days after the earlier of (i) any Responsible Officer of any Pledgor becomes aware of such failure, or (ii) notice thereof shall have been given to the Borrowers’ Agent by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
          SECTION 5.2. Actions upon Event of Default. In addition to its rights and remedies provided hereunder, whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the U.C.C. or other applicable law. Any notification required by law of any intended disposition by the Administrative Agent of any of the Collateral shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if given at least ten (10) days before such disposition. Without limitation of the above, the Administrative Agent may, and upon direction of the Required Lenders shall, whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, take all or any of the following actions after giving at least ten (10) days prior notice to the Pledgors:
     (a) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder;
     (b) take control of any Proceeds of the Collateral; and
     (c) execute (in the name, place and stead of the Pledgors) endorsements, assignments, transfer powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral.
          SECTION 5.3. Attorney-in-Fact. Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of the Pledgors, the Secured Parties or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the Pledgors’ expense, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default to take any

9


 

action and to execute any instrument which the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable enable the Administrative Agent to realize the benefit of the security interest provided for in this Agreement.
          SECTION 5.4. Private Sales. (a) Each Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Interests by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state securities law or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers that will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay sale of any of the Pledged Interests for the period of time necessary to permit any Subsidiary to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities law, even if such Subsidiary would agree to do so.
          (b) Each Pledgor further agrees to use its reasonable best efforts, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to do or cause to be done all such acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Interests pursuant to this Section 5.4 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable Requirements of Law.
          SECTION 5.5. Application of Proceeds. All cash Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent during the existence of an Event of Default, be held by the Administrative Agent as additional collateral security for, or then or at any time thereafter during the existence of an Event of Default, be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.9 of the Credit Agreement and Section 5.6 of this Agreement) in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations in the following order:
     (a) first, ratably, to the unpaid interest accrued and then due or owing on the Secured Obligations and to the aggregate amount of fees described in Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement which have accrued and are unpaid;
     (b) second, ratably, among the Lenders and Issuing Bank, on account of all principal of any Secured Obligations then due or owing; and
     (c) third, to any other Secured Obligations then due or owing.
After termination of the Lenders’ Commitments, the termination of the commitment under the Credit Agreement of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit, and payment of the Secured Obligations (except to the extent such Secured Obligations consist solely of inchoate indemnity obligations, Treasury Management Obligations and/or Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit complying with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement), any surplus of such cash or cash Proceeds held by the Administrative Agent shall be paid over to the Pledgors or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
          SECTION 5.6. Indemnity and Expenses. Each Pledgor hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Secured Parties from and against any and all claims, losses, and liabilities growing out of or

10


 

resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement), to the same extent as the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement. Upon demand, each Pledgor will pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent the amount of any and all reasonable and documented expenses actually incurred, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents actually incurred, which the Administrative Agent incurs in connection with:
     (a) the administration of this Agreement;
     (b) the custody, preservation, use, or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral;
     (c) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder and any action taken by the Administrative Agent under Section 6.4; and
     (d) the failure by any Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
          SECTION 5.7. Registration Rights. If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any of the Pledged Interests (included as Collateral) pursuant to Section 5.2 or under applicable law, each Pledgor agrees that, upon request of the Administrative Agent, as soon as practicable, each Pledgor will, at its own expense:
     (a) execute and deliver, and cause each issuer of the Pledged Interests and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, advisable to register such Pledged Interests under the provisions of the Securities Act, and to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and remain effective for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectuses which, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto;
     (b) use its best efforts to qualify the Pledged Interests under state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and to obtain all necessary governmental approval for the sale of the Pledged Interests, as requested by the Administrative Agent;
     (c) cause each issuer of the Pledged Interests to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section 14(a) of the Securities Act; and
     (d) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of the Pledged Interests or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.
Each Pledgor further acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages which would be suffered by the Secured Parties by reason of the failure of a Pledgor to perform any of the covenants contained in this Section and, consequently, agrees that the remedy of specific performance may be granted to require the Pledgor to comply with the covenants contained in this Section, at any time after the Administrative Agent shall demand compliance with this Section.

EACH PLEDGOR, AND BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ON BEHALF OF THE SECURED PARTIES, (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY SECURED PARTY OR PLEDGOR HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH SECURED PARTY OR PLEDGOR WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
          SECTION 6.8. Postponement of Subrogation. Each Pledgor subordinates and agrees not to exercise any rights against any Borrower which it may acquire by way of subrogation or contribution, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until all the Secured Obligations shall have been irrevocably paid in full and the Credit Agreement shall have been irrevocably terminated. If any amount shall be paid to a Pledgor on account of such subrogation or contribution rights at any time when all the Secured Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.
