                    (d) it shall keep and maintain at its own cost and expense records of the Receivables which are complete in all material respects, including, but not limited to, the originals of all documentation with respect to all Receivables and records of all payments received and all credits granted on the Receivables, all merchandise returned and all other dealings therewith;

                    (e) other than in the ordinary course of business (i) it shall not amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of any Receivable in any manner which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the value of such Receivable; (ii) following and during the continuation of an Event of Default, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, such Grantor shall not (w) grant any extension or renewal of the time of payment of any Receivable, (x) compromise or settle any dispute, claim or legal proceeding with respect to any Receivable for less than the total unpaid balance thereof, (y) release, wholly or partially, any Person liable for the payment thereof, or (z) allow any credit or discount thereon; and

                    (f) the Bank shall have the right at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Parity Lien Default to notify, or require any Grantor to notify, any Account Debtor of the Bank’s security interest in the Receivables and any Supporting Obligation and, in addition, at any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Bank may: (i) direct the Account Debtors under any Receivables to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Bank; (ii) notify, or require any Grantor to notify, each Person maintaining a lockbox or similar arrangement to which Account Debtors under any Receivables have been directed to make payment to remit all

          6.6 Pledged Equity Interests, Investment Related Property.

                    (a) except as provided in the next sentence, in the event such Grantor receives any dividends, interest or distributions on any Pledged Equity Interest or other Investment Related Property, upon the merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of any issuer of any Pledged Equity Interest or Investment Related Property, then (i) such dividends, interest or distributions and any Securities (other than Excluded Securities) or other property shall be included in the definition of Collateral without further action and (ii) such Grantor shall promptly take all steps, if any, necessary or advisable to ensure the validity, perfection, priority and, if applicable, control of the Bank over such Investment Related Property (including, without limitation, delivery thereof to the Bank) and pending any such action such Grantor shall be deemed to hold such dividends, interest, distributions, Securities [(other than Excluded Securities)] or other property in trust for the benefit of the Bank and shall segregate such dividends, distributions, Securities or other property from all other property of such Grantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Bank authorizes each Grantor to retain all ordinary cash dividends and distributions paid in the normal course of the business of the issuer of any applicable Investment Related Property and consistent with the past practice of such issuer and all scheduled payments of interest.

                    (b) Voting.

 

 

 

 

                    (i) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, except as otherwise provided under the covenants and agreements relating to Investment Related Property in this Agreement or elsewhere herein, each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise or refrain from exercising any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Investment Related Property or any part thereof; and

 

 

 

 

                    (ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

 

 

 

 

(1)

all rights of each Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Bank

21



 

 

 

 

 

who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights; and

 

 

 

 

(2)

in order to permit the Bank to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder: (1) each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Bank all proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Bank may from time to time reasonably request and (2) each Grantor acknowledges that the Bank may utilize the power of attorney set forth in Section 8.1.

                    (c) without the prior written consent of the Bank, it shall not vote to enable or take any other action to: (i) amend or terminate any partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement, certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents in any way that materially changes the rights of such Grantor with respect to any Investment Related Property or adversely affects the validity, perfection or priority of the Bank’s security interest, (ii) permit any issuer of any Pledged Equity Interest to dispose of all or a material portion of their assets, (iii) waive any default under or breach of any terms of organizational document relating to the issuer of any Pledged Equity Interest or the terms of any Pledged Debt, or (iv) cause any issuer of any Pledged Partnership Interests or Pledged LLC Interests which are not securities (for purposes of the UCC) on the date hereof to elect or otherwise take any action to cause such Pledged Partnership Interests or Pledged LLC Interests to be treated as securities for purposes of the UCC; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if any issuer of any Pledged Partnership Interests or Pledged LLC Interests takes any such action in violation of the foregoing in this clause (iv), such Grantor shall promptly notify the Bank in writing of any such election or action and, in such event, shall take all steps necessary or advisable to establish the Bank’s Control thereof;

                    (d) without the prior written consent of the Bank, it shall not permit any issuer of any Pledged Equity Interest to merge or consolidate unless (i) such issuer creates a security interest that is perfected by a filed financing statement (that is not effective solely under section 9-508 of the UCC) in collateral in which such new debtor has or acquires rights, (ii) all the outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of the surviving or resulting corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity is, upon such merger or consolidation, pledged hereunder and no cash, securities or other property is distributed in respect of the outstanding equity interests of any other constituent Grantor; provided that if the surviving or resulting Grantors upon any such merger or consolidation involving an issuer which is a Controlled Foreign Corporation, then such Grantor shall only be required to pledge equity interests in accordance with Section 2.2 and (iii) Grantor promptly complies with the delivery and control requirements of Section 4 hereof; and

                    (e) it shall notify the Bank of any default under any Pledged Debt that has caused, either in any individual case or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect.

          6.7 Intellectual Property. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6,

                    (a) it shall not knowingly do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of the Grantor-owned Intellectual Property that is material to the business of such Grantor may lapse, or become abandoned, canceled, dedicated to the public, forfeited,

22


unenforceable or otherwise impaired, or which would adversely affect the validity, grant, or enforceability of the security interest granted therein;

                    (b) it shall not, with respect to any Trademarks, cease the use of any of such Trademarks or fail to maintain the level of the quality of products sold and services rendered under any of such Trademark at a level at least substantially consistent with the quality of such products and services as of the date hereof, and such Grantor shall take all commercially reasonable steps to ensure that licensees of such Trademarks use such consistent standards of quality;

                    (c) it shall promptly notify the Bank if it knows or has reason to know that any item of Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor may become (i) abandoned or dedicated to the public or placed in the public domain, (ii) invalid or unenforceable, (iii) subject to any adverse determination or development regarding such Grantor’s ownership, registration or use or the validity or enforceability of such item of Intellectual Property (including the institution of, or any adverse development with respect to, any action or proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, any state registry, any foreign counterpart of the foregoing, or any court) or (iv) the subject of any reversion or termination rights;

                    (d) it shall take all reasonable steps, including in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, any state registry or any foreign counterpart of the foregoing, to pursue any application and maintain any registration or issuance of each Trademark, Patent, and Copyright owned by or exclusively licensed to any Grantor, including, but not limited to, those items on Schedule 5.2(II) (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time);

                    (e) it shall use best efforts so as not to permit the inclusion in any contract to which it hereafter becomes a party of any provision that would materially impair or prevent the creation of a security interest in such Grantor’s rights and interests in any Grantor-owned Intellectual Property;

                    (f) in the event that any Intellectual Property owned by or exclusively licensed to any Grantor is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated by a third party, such Grantor shall promptly take all reasonable actions to stop such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation and protect its rights in such Intellectual Property including, but not limited to, the initiation of a suit for injunctive relief and to recover damages;

                    (g) it shall take all reasonable steps to protect the secrecy of all Trade Secrets owned by such Grantor;

                    (h) it shall continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor. In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and, at the Bank’s reasonable direction, shall take) such action as such Grantor or the Bank may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to enforce collection of such amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank shall have the right at any time, to notify, or require any Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to any such amounts of the existence of the security interest created hereby.

                    (i) Nothing in the foregoing subsections 6.7(a) through (h) shall be construed to require a Grantor to prosecute, maintain, renew or extend any item of registered Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, or any application for registration of Intellectual

23


Property owned by such Grantor, where such Grantor has, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, deemed such Intellectual Property to be of no material value to the business of such Grantor, or where, in the exercise of such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, such Grantor has determined that the failure to prosecute an application for registration or issuance of Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on such Grantor’s business.

          6.8 Non-Assignable Contracts.

          Each Grantor shall, within thirty (30) days after entering into any Material Contract that is a Non-Assignable Contract after the date hereof, request in writing the consent of the counterparty or counterparties to such Non-Assignable Contract pursuant to the terms of such Non-Assignable Contract or applicable law to the assignment or granting of a security interest in such Non-Assignable Contract to the Bank, and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent as soon as practicable thereafter.

SECTION 7. ACCESS; RIGHT OF INSPECTION; INSURANCE AND FURTHER ASSURANCES; ADDITIONAL GRANTORS.

          7.1 Access; Right of Inspection; Insurance.

                    (a) The Bank shall at all times have full and free access (during normal business hours) to all the books, correspondence and records of each Grantor, and the Bank and its representatives may examine the same, take extracts therefrom and make photocopies thereof, and each Grantor agrees to render to the Bank, at such Grantor’s cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto. The Bank and its representatives shall at all times also have the right to enter any premises of each Grantor and inspect any property of each Grantor where any of the Collateral of such Grantor granted pursuant to this Agreement is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting its interests therein.

                    (b) The Grantors will maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers, such public liability insurance, third party property damage insurance, business interruption insurance and casualty insurance with respect to liabilities, losses or damage in respect of the assets, properties and businesses of the Grantors and their respective Subsidiaries as may customarily be carried or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons of established reputation engaged in similar businesses, in each case in such amounts (giving effect to self insurance), with such deductibles, covering such risks and otherwise on such terms and conditions as shall be customary for such Persons. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantors will maintain or cause to be maintained (i) flood insurance with respect to each interest (fee, leasehold or otherwise) owned or held by any Grantor in any real property subject to a mortgage in favor of the Bank and located in an area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood or mud slide hazards, which area is located in a community that participates in the National Flood Insurance Program, in each case in compliance with any applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the United States Federal Reserve System (or any successor thereto), and (ii) replacement value casualty insurance on the Collateral under such policies of insurance, with such insurance companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and covering such risks as are at all times carried or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons of established reputation engaged in similar businesses. Each such policy of insurance shall (A) name the Bank as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear, (B) in the case of each casualty insurance policy, contain a loss payable

24


clause or endorsement, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Bank, that names the Bank as loss payee thereunder and provide for at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Bank of any modification or cancellation of such policy.

          7.2 Further Assurances.

                    (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Grantor, it shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary, or that the Bank may reasonably request, in order to create and/or maintain the validity, perfection or priority of any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Bank to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor shall:

 

 

 

                    (i) file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, record security interests in Intellectual Property and execute and deliver such other agreements, instruments, endorsements, powers of attorney or notices, as may be necessary or as the Bank may reasonably request, in order to effect, reflect, perfect and preserve the security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby;

 

 

 

                    (ii) take all actions necessary to ensure the recordation of appropriate evidence of the liens and security interest granted hereunder in any Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor with any intellectual property registry in which said owned Intellectual Property is registered or issued or in which an application for registration or issuance is pending, including, without limitation, the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, the various Secretaries of State, and the foreign counterparts on any of the foregoing;

 

 

 

                    (iii) at the Bank’s reasonable request, appear in and defend any action or proceeding that may affect such Grantor’s title to or the Bank’s security interest in all or any material part of the Collateral, except for Permitted Liens; and

 

 

 

                    (iv) furnish the Bank with such information regarding the Collateral, including, without limitation, the location thereof, as the Bank may reasonably request from time to time.

                    (b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Bank to file a Record or Records, including, without limitation, financing or continuation statements, Intellectual Property Security Agreements and amendments and supplements to any of the foregoing, in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Bank may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary to perfect the security interest granted to the Bank herein. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Bank may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Bank herein, including, without limitation, describing such property as “all assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, developed or created” or words of similar effect. Each Grantor shall furnish to the Bank from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Bank may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

25


                    (c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Bank to modify this Agreement after obtaining such Grantor’s approval of or signature to such modification by amending Schedule 5.2 (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time) to include reference to any right, title or interest in any existing Intellectual Property or any Intellectual Property acquired or developed by any Grantor after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any Intellectual Property in which any Grantor no longer has or claims any right, title or interest.

          7.3 Additional Grantors. From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Persons may become parties hereto as additional Grantors (each, an “Additional Grantor”), by executing a Pledge Supplement. Upon delivery of any such Pledge Supplement to the Bank, notice of which is hereby waived by Grantors, each Additional Grantor shall be a Grantor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if Additional Grantor were an original signatory hereto. Each Grantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Grantor hereunder, nor by any election of Bank not to cause any Subsidiary of the Company to become an Additional Grantor hereunder. This Agreement shall be fully effective as to any Grantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Grantor hereunder.

          The Grantors shall cause (a) each Subsidiary formed or acquired after the date hereof and each subsidiary that becomes a Subsidiary after the date hereof, in each case, concurrently upon becoming a Subsidiary, and (b) each Subsidiary that ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary after the date hereof, concurrently upon ceasing to be an Immaterial Subsidiary, to become a “Grantor” under and as defined in the applicable First Lien Collateral Documents in existence at such time, to deliver such schedules, documents, instruments, agreements and certificates as are similar to those delivered to the Bank in connection with this Agreement, and to take all actions necessary to grant and to perfect a first priority Lien in favor of the Bank (subject, in the case of priority only, to Permitted Prior Liens) on the collateral described therein.

SECTION 8. BANK APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.

          8.1 Power of Attorney. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Bank (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, the Bank or otherwise, from time to time in the Bank’s discretion:

                    (a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to the Bank pursuant to this Agreement and/or the Credit Agreement;

                    (b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

                    (c) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (b) above;

                    (d) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Bank may deem

26


necessary for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Bank with respect to any of the Collateral;

                    (e) to prepare and file any UCC financing statements against such Grantor as debtor;

                    (f) to prepare, sign, and file for recordation in any intellectual property registry, appropriate evidence of the lien and security interest granted herein in any Intellectual Property in the name of such Grantor as debtor;

                    (g) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to perform or comply or cause performance or compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, access to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Permitted Prior Liens) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by the Bank in its sole discretion, any such payments made by the Bank to become obligations of such Grantor to the Bank, due and payable immediately without demand; and

                    (h) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, lease, license, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Bank were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Bank’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that the Bank deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Bank’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

          8.2 No Duty on the Part of Bank. The powers conferred on the Bank hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Bank to exercise any such powers. The Bank 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, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 9. REMEDIES.

          9.1 Generally.

                    (a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to applicable Gaming Law, the Bank may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of the Bank on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

 

 

 

                    (i) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of the Bank forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Bank and make it available to the Bank at a place to be designated by the Bank that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

27



 

 

 

                    (ii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

 

 

 

                    (iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Bank deems appropriate; and

 

 

 

                    (iv) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Bank’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Bank may deem commercially reasonable.

                    (b) The Bank may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and the Bank shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Bank at such sale. 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 applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. 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 Bank shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Bank 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. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Bank to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Bank 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 which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Bank accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, Grantors shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by the Bank to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Bank, that the Bank has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way limit the rights of the Bank hereunder.

28


                    (c) The Bank may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Bank may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

                    (d) The Bank shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

          9.2 Application of Proceeds. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds received by the Bank in respect of any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by the Bank in accordance with Section 8.25 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

          9.3 Sales on Credit. If Bank sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Bank and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Bank may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.

          9.4 Investment Related Property. Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Bank may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Investment Related Property conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Investment Related Property under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Related Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Bank shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Investment Related Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If the Bank determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Related Property included in the Collateral, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any such Pledged Stock to be sold hereunder, each partnership and each limited liability company from time to time to furnish to the Bank all such information as the Bank may request in order to determine the number and nature of interest, shares or other instruments included in the Investment Related Property which may be sold by the Bank in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

          9.5 Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Bank, during the continuance of an Event of Default to exercise rights and remedies under Section 9 hereof at such time as the Bank shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and during the pendency thereof, and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Bank, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of such Trademarks, to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired, developed or created by such Grantor, wherever the

29


same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof.

          9.6 Intellectual Property.

                    (a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided herein, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

 

 

 

                    (i) the Bank shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, the Bank or otherwise, in the Bank’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property rights of such Grantor, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of the Bank, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents reasonably requested by the Bank in aid of such enforcement, and such Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Bank as provided in Section 12 hereof in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section 9.6, and, to the extent that the Bank shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property rights as provided in this Section 9.6, each Grantor agrees to use all reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation of any of such Grantor’s rights in the Intellectual Property by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing, misappropriating, diluting or otherwise violating as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation;

 

 

 

                    (ii) upon written demand from the Bank, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Bank or such Bank’s designee all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to any Intellectual Property and shall execute and deliver to the Bank such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement;

 

 

 

                    (iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that the Bank receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, any such Intellectual Property;

 

 

 

                    (iv) within five (5) Business Days after written notice from the Bank, each Grantor shall make available to the Bank, to the extent within such Grantor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Grantor’s employ on the date of such Event of Default as the Bank may reasonably designate, by name, title or job responsibility, to permit such Grantor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold or delivered by such Grantor under or in connection with any Trademarks or Trademark Licenses, such persons to be available to perform their prior functions on the Bank’s behalf and to be compensated by the Bank at such Grantor’s expense on a per diem, pro-rata basis consistent with the salary and benefit structure applicable to each as of the date of such Event of Default; and

 

 

 

                    (v) the Bank shall have the right to notify, or require each Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of any Intellectual Property of such Grantor, of the existence of the security

30



 

 

 

 

interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to the Bank, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done;

 

 

 

 

(1)

all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Bank hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to the Bank in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 9.7 hereof; and

 

 

 

 

(2)

Grantor shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

                    (b) if (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to the Bank of any rights, title and interests in and to any Intellectual Property of such Grantor shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor, the Bank shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Bank as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by the Bank; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Bank’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Bank granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect.

          9.7 Cash Proceeds; Deposit Accounts. (a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to the rights of the Bank specified in Section 6.5 with respect to payments of Receivables, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items (collectively, “Cash Proceeds”) shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Bank, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Bank in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Bank, if required) and held by the Bank in a Collateral Account. Any Cash Proceeds received by the Bank (whether from a Grantor or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of the Bank, (A) be held by the Bank for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (B) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Bank against the Secured Obligations then due and owing.

          (b) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Bank may apply the balance from any Deposit Account or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account to or for the benefit of the Bank.

SECTION 10. [RESERVED].

31


SECTION 11. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF NOTES AND OTHER INDEBTEDNESS.

          This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations, be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Bank hereunder, to the benefit of the Bank and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the applicable First Lien Documents, Bank may assign or otherwise transfer the Obligations held by it to any other Person to the extent permitted under the applicable First Lien Documents, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations and the termination of all commitments on the part of the Bank to extend credit to Grantors, the security interest granted hereby shall automatically terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. Upon any such termination the Bank shall, at the Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to the Grantors or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request, including financing statement amendments to evidence such termination. Upon any sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral permitted by the First Lien Documents, the Liens granted herein upon such Collateral shall be deemed to be automatically released and such Collateral shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor with no further action on the part of any Person. The Bank shall, at the applicable Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release.

SECTION 12. STANDARD OF CARE; BANK MAY PERFORM.

          The powers conferred on the Bank hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Bank 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 Bank shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Bank accords its own property. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained in Section 7.1(b) of this Agreement, the Bank may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Bank incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement and the other applicable First Lien Documents.

SECTION 13. MISCELLANEOUS.

          Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 9.9 of the Intercreditor Agreement. No failure or delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other First Lien Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other First Lien Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any

32


jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default under and as defined in the Credit Agreement if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Bank and the Grantors and their respective successors and assigns. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Bank given in accordance with the Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other First Lien Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Bank and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the First Lien Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

          This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

          THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND ALL CLAIMS AND CONTROVERSIES ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY OTHER LAW (OTHER THAN ANY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF THE UCC RELATING TO THE LAW GOVERNING PERFECTION AND THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST).

          THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT UNDER THE HEADING “SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS” ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE AND SUCH INCORPORATION SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT.

33


          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Grantor and the Bank have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.

          This Uncertificated Securities Control Agreement dated as of [_________], 20[__] among [________________] (the “Pledgor”), Comerica Bank (the “Bank”) and [______________________] (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned in the Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof, among the Pledgor, the other Grantors party thereto and the Bank (the “Security Agreement”). All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Michigan.

          Section 1. Registered Ownership of Shares. The Issuer hereby confirms and agrees that as of the date hereof the Pledgor is the registered owner of [__________] shares of the Issuer’s [common stock] (the “Pledged Shares”) and the Issuer shall not change the registered owner of the Pledged Shares without the prior written consent of the Bank.

          Section 2. Instructions. If at any time the Issuer shall receive instructions originated by the Bank relating to the Pledged Shares, the Issuer shall comply with such instructions without further consent by the Pledgor or any other person.

          Section 3. Additional Representations and Warranties of the Issuer. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants to the Bank:

          (a) It has not entered into, and until the termination of this agreement will not enter into, any agreement with any other person relating the Pledged Shares pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with instructions issued by such other person; and

          (b) It has not entered into, and until the termination of this agreement will not enter into, any agreement with the Pledgor or the Bank purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Issuer to comply with Instructions as set forth in Section 2 hereof.

          (c) Except for the claims and interest of the Bank and of the Pledgor in the Pledged Shares, the Issuer does not know of any claim to, or interest in, the Pledged Shares. If any person asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against the Pledged Shares, the Issuer will promptly notify the Bank and the Pledgor thereof.

The Bank may assign its rights hereunder only with the express written consent of the Issuer and by sending written notice of such assignment to the Pledgor.

          Section 8. Indemnification of Issuer. The Pledgor and the Bank hereby agree that (a) the Issuer is released from any and all liabilities to the Pledgor and the Bank arising from the terms of this Agreement and the compliance of the Issuer with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such liabilities arise from the Issuer’s negligence and (b) the Pledgor, its successors and assigns shall at all times indemnify and save harmless the Issuer from and against any and all claims, actions and suits of others arising out of the terms of this Agreement or the compliance of the Issuer with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such arises from the Issuer’s negligence, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising by reason of the same, until the termination of this Agreement.

          Section 9. Notices. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and deemed to have been properly given when delivered in person, or when sent by telecopy or other electronic means and electronic confirmation of error free receipt is received or two (2) days after being sent by certified or registered United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the party at the address set forth below.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned in the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Intercreditor Agreement) among the Debtor, the Bank, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other parties party thereto. All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York.

Pursuant to that certain Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of June 30, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “First Lien Security Agreement”), among the Debtor, the other grantors party thereto and the Bank, and that certain Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of June 30, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Second Lien Security Agreement”; and together with the First Lien Security Agreement, the “Security Agreements”), among the Debtor, the other grantors party thereto and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Debtor has granted a security interest in all of the Debtor’s rights in the Securities Account referred to in Section 2 below to each of the Bank and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, respectively. Bank and Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Debtor and the Securities Intermediary are entering into this Agreement to perfect each of the Bank’s and the Second Lien Collateral Agent’s security interests in such Securities Account. As between the Bank and the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Bank shall have a first priority security interest in such Securities Account and the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall have a second priority security interest in such Securities Account in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. The Securities Intermediary hereby acknowledges that it has received notice of the security interests of the Bank and the Second Lien Collateral Agent in such Securities Account and hereby acknowledges and consents to such liens.

          Section 2. Establishment of Securities Account. The Securities Intermediary hereby confirms and agrees that:

          (a) The Securities Intermediary has established account number [_______] in the name “[__________]” (such account and any successor account, the Securities Account”) and the Securities Intermediary shall not change the name or account number of the Securities Account without the prior written consent of (i) prior to delivery of a Notice of Termination of First Lien Obligations sent by the Bank in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (“Notice of Termination of First Lien Obligations”), the Bank, (ii) subsequent to delivery of a Notice of Termination of First Lien Obligations sent by the Bank, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, and (iii) prior to delivery pursuant to Section 9(a) of a Blocking Notice delivered by the Bank or Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto (“Blocking Notice”), the Debtor;

EXHIBIT C-1


          (b) All securities or other property underlying any financial assets credited to the Securities Account shall be registered in the name of the Securities Intermediary, indorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary and in no case will any financial asset credited to the Securities Account be registered in the name of the Debtor, payable to the order of the Debtor or specially indorsed to the Debtor except to the extent the foregoing have been specially indorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank;

          Section 3. “Financial Assets” Election. The Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that each item of property (including, without limitation, any investment property, financial asset, security, instrument, general intangible or cash) credited to the Securities Account shall be treated as a “financial asset” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC.

          Section 4. Control of the Securities Account. If at any time prior to delivery of a Notice of Termination of First Lien Obligations by the Bank the Securities Intermediary shall receive any order from the Bank directing transfer or redemption of any financial asset relating to the Securities Account, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the Debtor or any other person. If at any time the Securities Intermediary shall receive any entitlement order from the Second Lien Collateral Agent directing transfer or redemption of any financial asset relating to the Securities Account, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the Debtor or any other person; provided that, prior to receipt by the Securities Intermediary of a Notice of Termination of First Lien Obligations sent by the Bank, the Securities Intermediary shall not comply with any entitlement order issued by the Second Lien Collateral Agent without the written consent of the Bank.

If the Debtor is otherwise entitled to issue entitlement orders and such orders conflict with any entitlement order issued by the Bank or the Second Lien Collateral Agent (either with the written consent of the Bank or following the receipt by Securities Intermediary of a Notice of Termination of First Lien Obligations sent by the Bank), if applicable, the Securities Intermediary shall follow the orders issued by the applicable Collateral Lien Holder.

          Section 5. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the Securities Intermediary has or subsequently obtains by agreement, by operation of law or otherwise a security interest in the Securities Account or any security entitlement credited thereto, the Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Collateral Lien Holders. The financial assets and other items deposited to the Securities Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than the Collateral Lien Holders (except that the Securities Intermediary may set off (i) all amounts due to the Securities Intermediary in respect of customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Securities Account and (ii) the face
