COVENANTS

SECTION 4.1. Protect Collateral; Further Assurances. No Pledgor will sell, assign, transfer, pledge or encumber in any other manner the Collateral (except in favor of Administrative Agent hereunder), except as permitted by the Credit Agreement. Each Pledgor will warrant and defend the right, title and security interest herein granted to 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 Pledgor, Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments, and take all further action, that may be necessary, or that Administrative

6

Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable 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 such Subsidiary may issue Equity Interests to such Pledgor or any other Loan Party which Equity Interests are or become contemporaneously with such issuance, Pledged Interests that are pledged hereunder and become a part of the Collateral (in the same proportion as currently pledged), 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 Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of the issuance of 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 and Chinese Subsidiaries contained in the definition of “Pledged Interests”), and shall, in accordance with Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement, cause such Pledged Interests, together with signed transfer powers and proxies, and such other documents and instruments as Administrative Agent may require in its reasonable discretion, to be delivered into Administrative Agent’s possession, and take all other steps deemed necessary by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion to perfect the first-priority security interest of Administrative Agent in such additional Pledged Interests.

SECTION 4.3. Taxes. Each Pledgor 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) delivered by Pledgor to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement will be accompanied by all necessary instruments of transfer or assignment, duly executed in blank and, if Administrative Agent shall so request, in its reasonable discretion, 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 the request of Administrative Agent, promptly deliver to it such transfer powers, instruments and similar documents, satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent, with respect to the Collateral as Administrative Agent may reasonably request and will, from time to time upon the request of Administrative Agent, promptly transfer any Pledged Interests or other Equity Interests, including all Distributions, constituting Collateral into the name of Administrative Agent or any nominee designated by Administrative Agent.

SECTION 4.5. Continuous Pledge. Each Pledgor will at all times keep pledged to Administrative Agent pursuant hereto all Pledged Interests, all Dividends received during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default and Distributions with respect thereto, and all other Collateral.

7

SECTION 4.6. Voting Rights; Dividends. In addition, each Pledgor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) promptly upon receipt thereof by Pledgor and without any request therefor by Administrative Agent, Pledgor shall deliver (properly endorsed where required hereby or requested by Administrative Agent) to Administrative Agent all Dividends, all of which shall be held by Administrative Agent as additional Collateral for use in accordance with Section 5.5;

(b) upon notice to Pledgor by Administrative Agent, all rights of 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 Administrative Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights; and

(c) promptly upon request of Administrative Agent, Pledgor shall deliver to Administrative Agent such proxies and other documents as may be necessary to allow Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights with respect to any Collateral.

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, 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 Pledgor’s obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent such Pledged Interests and other Equity Interests in pledge hereunder) and to the receipt of all Dividends and Distributions. All Dividends, Distributions, cash payments and Proceeds which Pledgor is obligated to deliver to Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement, shall, until delivery to Administrative Agent, be held by Pledgor separate and apart from its other property in trust for Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent agrees that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 Pledgor which are necessary or appropriate to allow Pledgor to exercise voting power with respect to any Equity Interest (including any Pledged Interest) constituting Collateral; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver or ratification given, or action taken by Pledgor that would impair in any material respect any Collateral or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document (including this Agreement).

SECTION 4.7. Additional Information. Each Pledgor will furnish to 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. The existence or occurrence of any “Event of Default” as provided under the terms of the Credit Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement.

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, 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 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, 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 Pledgors

(a) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of 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 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 Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of Pledgors, Administrative Agent, the Lenders or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, but at Pledgors’ expense, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default to take any action and to execute any instrument which Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable enable 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 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 one or more 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. 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.

9

(b) Each Pledgor further agrees to use its commercially reasonable 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 Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by the Administrative Agent, promptly upon receipt thereof, in the manner set forth in Section 2.12(c) of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.6. Indemnity and Expenses. Each Pledgor hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and against any and all claims, losses, and liabilities growing out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement), to the same extent as Borrower pursuant to the terms of Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement. Upon demand, each Pledgor will pay, or cause to be paid, to Administrative Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses actually incurred, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents actually incurred, which 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 Administrative Agent hereunder and any action taken by 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, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at the time of any proposed sale of Pledged Interests, such Pledgor has a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such Pledgor will at its own expense upon the request of the Administrative Agent:

(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 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 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;

10

(b) use its best efforts to qualify (if applicable) 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 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 Administrative Agent and the Lenders 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 Pledgor to comply with the covenants contained in this Section, at any time after Administrative Agent shall demand compliance with this Section.
