(a)     Subject to Section 6(b) below, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Debtor and in the name of such Debtor or in its own name, from time to time at the Administrative Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Security Agreement, to take all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Debtor, without notice to or assent by such Debtor to do the following:

 

(i)     to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and receipts for any and all monies due or to become due under any Collateral and, in the name of such Debtor, in its own name or otherwise to take possession of, endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other Instruments for the payment of monies due under any Collateral and to file any claim or to take or commence any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such monies due under any Collateral whenever payable;

 

(ii)     to pay or discharge any liens, including, without limitation, any tax lien, levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, to effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Security Agreement and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof, which actions shall be for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and not any Debtor;

 

(iii)     subject to applicable Gaming Laws, to (1) direct any person liable for any payment under or in respect of any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all monies due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct, (2) receive payment of any and all monies, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time arising out of or in respect of any Collateral, (3) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against Debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with Accounts and other Instruments and Documents constituting or relating to the Collateral, (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral, (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against any Debtor with respect to any Collateral, (6) settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate, (7) license or, to the extent permitted by an applicable license, sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any Patent or Trademark throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall in its discretion determine and (8) sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and the Debtors’ expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Security Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Debtors might do; and

  

 
 

 

 

(iv)     to execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action that are required of such Debtor by Section 5.1 above.

 

(b)     The Administrative Agent agrees that, except upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney or any rights granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 6. Each Debtor hereby ratifies, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 6 is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Secured Obligations are completely paid and performed in full or this Security Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

 

(c)     The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, including any responsibility for (i) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral or (ii) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Investment Property, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as any Debtor reasonably requests in writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default. Failure of the Administrative Agent to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be responsible to the Debtors for any act or failure to act, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(d)     Subject to applicable Gaming Laws, each Debtor also authorizes the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, to (i) communicate in its own name with any party to any Contract with regard to the assignment of the right, title and interest of any Debtor in and under the Contracts hereunder and other matters relating thereto and (ii) execute, in connection with the sale of Collateral provided for in Section 7, below, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.

  

 
 

 

 

(e)     If any Debtor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein and the Administrative Agent, as provided for by the terms of this Security Agreement, shall perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement, the costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs, of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a per annum rate equal to the Default Rate shall be payable by the Debtors to the Administrative Agent promptly following demand and shall constitute Secured Obligations secured hereby.

 

Each Debtor hereby ratifies all that the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact shall do or cause to be done by virtue of this Security Agreement.

  

 
 

 

 

Section 7.     Rights and Remedies Upon Default.

 

(a)     If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise (in accordance with applicable Gaming Laws), in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable law, including, without limitation, the UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Debtor expressly agrees that in any such event the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Debtors or any other person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent not prohibited by the UCC and other applicable law), shall have the right to collect the Proceeds from all Collateral (including, without limitation, dividends or distributions on Pledged Collateral) and may (i) reclaim, take possession, recover, store, maintain, finish, repair, prepare for sale or lease, ship, advertise for sale or lease and sell or lease (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral, and in connection with liquidation of the Collateral and collection of the accounts receivable pledged as Collateral, use any trademark, trade name, trade style, copyright, or process used or owned by any Debtor; (ii) forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange or broker’s board or at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk and (iii) to the exclusion of any Debtor, exercise (A) all voting, consent, corporate and other rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, of the relevant issuer or issuers of Pledged Collateral or otherwise and (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any issuer of securities pledged hereunder, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Debtor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. Each Debtor authorizes the Administrative Agent, on the terms set forth in this Section 7, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, appears to be prior or superior to its security interest. The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption each Debtor hereby releases. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral and may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, which procedures shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Each Debtor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at any Debtor’s premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale as provided in Section 7(h), below, and Debtors shall remain liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and only after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-608(a)(1)(C) of the UCC (or any other then applicable provision of the UCC), need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Debtors. To the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, each Debtor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. Each Debtor agrees that the Administrative Agent need not give more than ten (10) days’ prior written notice (which notification shall be deemed given in accordance with the Credit Agreement) of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters. Debtors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties are entitled, and Debtors shall also be liable for attorneys’ fees or costs of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency.

  

 
 

 

 

(b)     As to any Collateral constituting certificated securities or uncertificated securities, if, at any time when the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell the whole or any part of such Collateral, such Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under Securities Act of 1933, as amended (as so amended the “Act”), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), sell such Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable, but subject to the other requirements of this Section 7(b), and shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, (i) in accordance with applicable securities laws, proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part thereof could be or shall have been filed under the Act; (ii) approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale; and (iii) restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In addition to a private sale as provided above in this Section 7(b), if any of such Collateral shall not be freely distributable to the public without registration under the Act at the time of any proposed sale hereunder, then the Administrative Agent shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected but may, in its sole discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), require that any sale hereunder (including, without limitation, a sale at auction) be conducted subject to such restrictions as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or appropriate in order that such sale (notwithstanding any failure so to register) may be effected in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the Act and all applicable state securities laws.

 

(c)     In order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to this Security Agreement with respect to the Pledged Collateral and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive under this Security Agreement with respect to the Pledged Collateral, (i) each Debtor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Administrative Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request and (ii) without limiting the effect of clause (i) above, such Debtor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Collateral held by such Debtor and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of such Pledged Collateral would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, calling special meetings of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of such Pledged Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other Person (including the issuer of such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof) during each period of time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the irrevocable proxy granted to the Administrative Agent by such Debtor pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to the Pledged Collateral held by such Debtor is coupled with an interest and shall be exercisable by the Administrative Agent during each period of time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, regardless of the length of any such period of time. Each Debtor hereby expressly authorizes and instructs each issuer of any Pledged Collateral pledged hereunder by such Debtor to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Security Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Debtor, and each Debtor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Collateral directly to the Administrative Agent in compliance with any such instructions.

  

 
 

 

 

(d)     Each Debtor agrees that in any sale of any of such Collateral, whether at a foreclosure sale or otherwise, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law (including, without limitation, compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental authority, and each Debtor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Administrative Agent be liable nor accountable to any Debtor for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction.

 

(e)     Each Debtor also agrees to pay all fees, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights and remedies hereunder.

 

(f)     Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in the Credit Documents, each Debtor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

 

(g)     Each Debtor agrees that a breach of any covenants contained in this Section 7 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent, that in such event the Administrative Agent and would have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees that in such event each and every covenant contained in this Section 7 shall be specifically enforceable against the Debtors, and each Debtor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that the Secured Obligations are not then due and payable.

 

(h)     The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent as set forth in Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(i)     For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7 at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Debtor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Debtors during the existence of an Event of Default) to use, license or sublicense any of the Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Debtor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof, except to the extent that such license may not be granted as a result of an exclusive license arrangement. The use of such license by the Administrative Agent shall be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license or sublicense entered into by the Administrative Agent with a Person other than a Lender Party in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Debtors notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

  

 
 

 

 

Section 8.     Limitation on the Administrative Agent’s Duty in Respect of Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and disposition of any of the Collateral if it complies with the obligations of a secured party under Section 9-207 of the UCC (or any other then applicable provision of the UCC).

 

Section 9.     Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Debtor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Debtor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Debtor’s property and assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. This Section 9 shall survive the termination of this Security Agreement.

 

Section 10.     Miscellaneous.

 

10.1     Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications to or upon the Debtors (which shall be sent care of the Borrower) or the Administrative Agent under this Security Agreement shall be given as provided in Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

10.2     Partial Invalidity. If at any time any provision of this Security Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
