shall the Collateral include or the security interest granted under Section 2.2 hereof attach to
(a) any Intellectual Property, lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement to which any
Grantor is a party or any of its rights or interests thereunder if and for so long as the grant of

rights or agreement that does not result in any of the consequences specified in (i) or (ii) above;

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the
Collateral Trustee pursuant to this Agreement shall be a second priority lien on and security
interest in the Collateral and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Trustee

Trustee shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Collateral and such certificates, Instruments
or Documents in relation thereto to the First Lien Collateral Trustee or the ABL Collateral Agent
(each, as bailee for the Collateral Trustee).
The parties hereto agree that the requirements of this Agreement to obtain control agreements
(or to otherwise give control of any Collateral to the Collateral Trustee) shall be deemed
satisfied so long as such control agreements (of such other control) are in place with the First
Lien Collateral Trustee acting under each such control agreement for the benefit of the Secured
Parties pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or, upon the execution of the ABL
Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Collateral Agent (as defined therein) acting under each such
control agreement for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the ABL
Intercreditor Agreement.

with respect to every Grantor (the Secured Obligations).

enforce any rights under any agreement included in the Collateral, including, without limitation,
any agreements relating to Pledged Partnership Interests or Pledged LLC Interests, and (iii) the

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

any time during the continuance of an Event of Default to notify, or require any Grantor to
notify, any Account Debtor of the Collateral Trustees 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 Collateral Trustee may: (1) 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 Collateral Trustee; (2) 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 amounts
representing collections on checks and other payment items from time to time sent to or
deposited in such lockbox or other arrangement directly to the Collateral Trustee; and (3)
enforce, at the expense of such Grantor, collection of any such Receivables 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. If the Collateral Trustee notifies any Grantor that
it has elected to collect the Receivables in accordance with the preceding sentence, any
payments of Receivables received by such Grantor shall be forthwith (and in any event within
two (2) Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed
by such Grantor to the Collateral Trustee if required, in the Collateral Account maintained
under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Trustee, and until so turned over, all
amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by such Grantor in
respect of the Receivables, any Sup-
-18-
porting Obligation or Collateral Support shall be received in trust for the benefit of
the Collateral Trustee hereunder and shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor
and, subject to paragraph (i) above, such Grantor shall not adjust, settle or compromise the
amount or payment of any Receivable, or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or
obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon; and
(iv) it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep in full force and effect
any Supporting Obligation or Collateral Support relating to any Receivable.
(c) Delivery and Control of Receivables. With respect to any Receivables in excess of
$1,000,000 individually or $5,000,000 in the aggregate that is evidenced by, or constitutes,
Chattel Paper or Instruments, each Grantor shall cause each originally executed copy thereof to be
delivered to the Collateral Trustee (or its agent or designee) appropriately indorsed to the
Collateral Trustee or indorsed in blank: (i) with respect to any such Receivables in existence on
the date hereof, on or prior to the date hereof and (ii) with respect to any such Receivables
hereafter arising, within ten (10) Business Days of such Grantor acquiring rights therein. With
respect to any Receivables in excess of $1,000,000 individually or $5,000,000 in the aggregate
which would constitute electronic chattel paper under Article 9 of the UCC, each Grantor shall
take all steps necessary to give the Collateral Trustee control over such Receivables (within the
meaning of Section 9-105 of the UCC): (i) with respect to any such Receivables in existence on the
date hereof, on or prior to the date hereof and (ii) with respect to any such Receivables hereafter
arising, within ten (10) days of such Grantor acquiring rights therein. Any Receivable not
otherwise required to be delivered or subjected to the control of the Collateral Trustee in
accordance with this subsection (c) shall be delivered or subjected to such control upon request of
the Collateral Trustee during the continuance of an Event of Default.
4.4 Investment Related Property.
4.4.1 Investment Related Property Generally
(a) Covenants and Agreements. Each Grantor covenants and agrees that until payment in
full of all Obligations (other than unmatured contingent obligations):
(i) in the event it acquires rights in any Investment Related Property, with a value in
excess of $1,000,000 (except with respect to Pledged Equity Interests) after the date
hereof, it shall deliver to the Collateral Trustee a completed Pledge Supplement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, together with all
Supplements to Schedules thereto, reflecting such new Investment Related Property and all
other Investment Related Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and
agreed that the security interest of the Collateral Trustee shall attach to all Investment
Related Property immediately upon any Grantors acquisition of rights therein and shall not
be affected by the failure of any Grantor to deliver a supplement to Schedule 4.4 as
required hereby;
(ii) except as provided in the next sentence, in the event such Grantor receives any
dividends, interest or distributions on any Investment Related Property, or any securities
or other property upon the merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of any is-
-19-
suer of any Investment Related Property, then (a) such dividends, interest or
distributions and securities or other property shall be included in the definition of
Collateral without further action and (b) such Grantor shall within ten (10) Business Days
take all steps, if any, necessary or advisable to ensure the validity, perfection, priority
and, if applicable, control of the Collateral Trustee over such Investment Related Property
(including, without limitation, delivery thereof to the Collateral Trustee) and pending any
such action such Grantor shall be deemed to hold such dividends, interest, distributions,
securities or other property in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee authorizes each Grantor to
retain all cash dividends and distributions and all payments of interest and principal; and
(iii) each Grantor consents to the grant by each other Grantor of a Security Interest
in all Investment Related Property to the Collateral Trustee.
(b) Delivery and Control. Each Grantor agrees that with respect to any Investment
Related Property in which it currently has rights and which is included in the Collateral it shall

to any Investment Related Property hereafter acquired by such Grantor and which is included in the
Collateral, it shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.4.1(b) within (10) Business Days
upon acquiring rights therein, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Trustee. With respect to any Investment Related Property that is represented by a
certificate or that is an instrument with the value in excess of $1,000,000 (other than any
Investment Related Property credited to a Securities Account) and which is included in the
Collateral, it shall cause such certificate or instrument to be delivered to the Collateral
Trustee, indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement (as defined in Section 8-107 of the UCC),
regardless of whether such certificate constitutes a certificated security for purposes of the
UCC. With respect to any Investment Related Property that is an uncertificated security for
purposes of the UCC (other than any uncertificated securities credited to a Securities Account)
and which is included in the Collateral, it shall cause the issuer of such uncertificated security
to either (i) register the Collateral Trustee as the registered owner thereof on the books and
records of the issuer or (ii) execute an agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Collateral Trustee, pursuant to which such issuer agrees to comply with the Collateral Trustees
instructions with respect to such uncertificated security (such instructions only to be given upon
an Event of Default that is continuing in accordance with Section 7 hereof) without further consent
by such Grantor.
(c) Voting and Distributions. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing:
(1) except as otherwise provided under the covenants and agreements relating to
Investment Related Property in this Agreement or elsewhere herein or in the Security
Documents, 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
-20-
any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or
the Security Documents;
(2) the Collateral Trustee, at Grantors expense, shall promptly execute and deliver
(or cause to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all proxies, and other instruments
as such Grantor may from time to time reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such
Grantor with respect to Collateral registered in the name of the Collateral Trustee to
exercise the voting and other consensual rights when and to the extent which it is entitled
to exercise pursuant to clause (1) above and receive and retain dividends and other payments
to the extent which it is entitled pursuant to Section 4.4.1(a)(ii) above; and
(3) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:
(A) 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
Collateral Trustee who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting
and other consensual rights; and
(B) in order to permit the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee all proxies, dividend payment
orders and other instruments as the Collateral Trustee may from time to time
reasonably request and (2) each Grantor acknowledges that the Collateral Trustee may
utilize the power of attorney set forth in Section 6.1.

respect thereof;
(iv) none of the Pledged LLC Interests nor Pledged Partnership Interests are or
represent interests in issuers that: (a) are registered as investment companies or (b) are

control over such Deposit Account (within the meaning of the common law) and control (within the
meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) over such Deposit Account. Each Grantor shall have entered
into such control agreement or agreements with respect to: (i) any Securities Accounts (other than
Exempt Securities Accounts), Securities Entitlements or Deposit Accounts (other than the Exempt
Deposit Accounts) that exist on the date hereof and (ii) any Securities Accounts (other than Exempt

In addition to the foregoing, if any issuer of any Investment Related Property, with a value
in excess of $1,000,000 individually and $5,000,000 in the aggregate, is located in a jurisdiction
outside of the United States, each Grantor shall take such additional actions, including, without
limitation, causing the issuer to register the pledge on its books and records or making such
filings or recordings, in each case as may be necessary under the laws of such issuers
jurisdiction to insure the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest of the
Collateral Trustee. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the

upon written notice to the applicable Grantor, notify, or require any Grantor to notify, the
counterparty to make all payments under the Material Contracts directly to the Collateral
Trustee; and

advisable to enforce collection of such amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the

therein.
5.2 Further Assurances.
(a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Grantor, that it shall
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action,
that may be necessary and that the Collateral Trustee may reasonably request, in order to create
and/or maintain the validity, perfection or priority of and protect any security interest granted

including, without limitation, financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, in any
jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Collateral Trustee may determine, in its sole
discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to the Collateral
Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee herein, including, without limitation, describing such property
as all assets or all personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. Each Grantor
shall furnish to the Collateral Trustee from time to time statements and schedules further
identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral
as the Collateral Trustee may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.
(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Trustee to modify this Agreement after
obtaining such Grantors approval of or signature to such modification by amending Schedule
4.7 (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time) to include reference to
any right, title or interest in any existing Grantor Intellectual Property or any Grantor
Intellectual Property acquired or developed by any Grantor after the execution hereof or to delete

longer has or claims any right, title or interest.
5.3 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
Counterpart Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. Upon delivery of any
such Counterpart Agreement to the Collateral Trustee, 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 Collateral Trustee not to cause any Subsidiary of 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.
SECTION 6. COLLATERAL TRUSTEE APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.
6.1 Power of Attorney. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Trustee (such
appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Grantors attorney-in-fact, with full authority
in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, the Collateral Trustee or
otherwise, from time to time shall take any action at the direction of the majority of Noteholders

or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Trustee with respect to any of the
Collateral;
(e) to prepare and file any UCC financing statements against such Grantor as debtor;

Collateral Trustee, due and payable immediately without demand; and
(h) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, generally to
sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the
Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Trustee were the absolute owner
thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Collateral Trustees option and such Grantors
expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that the Collateral Trustee
deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the
Collateral Trustees security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this
Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.
6.2 No Duty on the Part of Collateral Trustee or Secured Parties. The powers conferred on the
Collateral Trustee hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the
Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Trustee or any Secured Party to
exercise any such powers. The Collateral Trustee and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only
for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they
nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for
any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
-31-
SECTION 7. REMEDIES.
7.1 Generally.
(a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Trustee may,
subject to the terms of and in the manner contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreement (and, upon
the execution of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), 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 Collateral
Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee forthwith, assemble all or part of the
Collateral as directed by the Collateral Trustee and make it available to the Collateral
Trustee at a place to be designated by the Collateral Trustee that is reasonably convenient
to both parties;
(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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral
Trustees 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 Collateral Trustee may
deem commercially reasonable.
(b) The Collateral Trustee at the direction of the majority of Noteholders or any Secured
Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent
to 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 Collateral Trustee, as collateral agent for and representative of
the Secured Parties, 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 Collateral Trustee 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
-32-
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 Collateral Trustee shall not be obligated
to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral
Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee accepts the first offer
received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree, provided this section
shall not restrict the operation of Section 9-615(f) of the UCC. 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 Collateral Trustee
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 Collateral Trustee, that the
Collateral Trustee 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 alter the rights of the Collateral Trustee hereunder.
(c) The Collateral Trustee may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the
Collateral. The Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.
7.2 Application of Proceeds. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement (and, upon
the execution of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), and subject to
the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds received by the Collateral Trustee in
respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the
Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Collateral Trustee against, the Secured
Obligations in accordance with Section 3.4 of the Collateral Trust Agreement.
7.3 Sales on Credit. If Collateral Trustee sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Grantor will
be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Collateral Trustee and
applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the
Collateral, Collateral Trustee may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with
proceeds of the sale.
-33-
7.4 Deposit Accounts. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Collateral Trustee may apply the balance from any Deposit Account (other than the Exempt Deposit
Accounts) or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account (other than the Exempt Deposit
Accounts) is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account (other than the Exempt Deposit
Accounts) to or for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee.
7.5 Investment Related Property. Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions
contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee is directed by a
majority of Noteholders to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Related
Property, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Stock
to be sold hereunder, each partnership and each limited liability company from time to time to
furnish to the Collateral Trustee all such information as the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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.
7.6 Intellectual Property.
(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of an Event of Default:
(i) at the direction of a majority of Noteholders the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee or otherwise, at the direction of a
majority of Noteholders, to enforce any Grantor Intellectual Property, in which event such
Grantor shall, at the request of the Collateral Trustee, do any and all lawful acts and
execute any and all documents reasonably required by the Collateral Trustee in aid of such
enforcement and such Grantor shall, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Collateral
Trustee as provided in Section 11 hereof in connection with the exercise of its rights under
this Section, and, to the extent that the Collateral Trustee shall elect not to bring suit
to enforce any Grantor Intellectual Property as provided in this Section, each
-34-
Grantor agrees to use commercially reasonable measures to the extent necessary, whether
by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement or other violation of
any of such Grantors rights in any Grantor Intellectual Property that is material to its
business by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or
proceeding against any Person so infringing as shall be necessary to prevent such
infringement or violation;
(ii) upon written demand from the Collateral Trustee, each Grantor shall grant, assign,
convey or otherwise transfer to the Collateral Trustee or such Collateral Trustees designee
all of such Grantors right, title and interest in and to the Grantor Intellectual Property
and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee
(or any Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other
realization upon, the Grantor Intellectual Property; and
(iv) the Collateral Trustee 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 the Grantor Intellectual Property, of the existence of the security interest created
herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to the
Collateral Trustee, 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 Collateral
Trustee hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be
forthwith paid over or delivered to the Collateral Trustee in the same form as so
received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied
as provided by Section 7.7 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 Collateral Trustee of
any rights, title and interests in and to the Grantor Intellectual Property 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
Collateral Trustee shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantors sole cost
and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor
-35-
any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Collateral Trustee as
aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by the Collateral Trustee;
provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Collateral Trustees security
interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Collateral
Trustee granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided further, the
rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or
on behalf of the Collateral Trustee and the Secured Parties.
(c) Solely for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Trustee to exercise rights and remedies
under this Section 7 after an Event of Default and at such time as the Collateral Trustee shall be
lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the
Collateral Trustee, to the extent it has the right to do so, an irrevocable, nonexclusive 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 said Trademarks, to use, operate under, license, or sublicense
any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same
may be located.
7.7 Cash Proceeds. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Trustee specified in Section 4.3
with respect to payments of Receivables, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor
consisting of cash, checks and other non-cash items (collectively, Cash Proceeds) shall be held
by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Trustee, segregated from other funds of such Grantor,
and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section
4.4(a)(ii), be turned over to the Collateral Trustee in the exact form received by such Grantor
(duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Trustee, if required) and held by the Collateral
Trustee in the Collateral Account. Any Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Trustee (whether
from a Grantor or otherwise): (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
shall be held by the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as
collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and (ii) if an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral
Trustee, (A) be held by the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee against the Secured Obligations
then due and owing.
SECTION 8. COLLATERAL TRUSTEE.
The Collateral Trustee has been appointed to act as Collateral Trustee hereunder by each of
the Secured Parties pursuant to the Collateral Trust Agreement. The Collateral Trustee shall be
obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or
refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including,
without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this
Agreement and the other Security Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this
Section, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no
right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and
agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by
-36-
the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this
Section.
SECTION 9. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF NOTES; RELEASES.
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
Collateral Trustee hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Trustee and its successors,
transferees and assigns. Upon any such termination, the Collateral Trustee shall, at the Grantors
expense, execute and deliver to the Grantors (or authorize the filing by the Grantors of) any
documents that the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Upon any
disposition of property including Capital Stock of a Grantor permitted by the Indenture to a Person
that is not a Grantor and in compliance with all provisions of the Indenture for release of the
Liens on such property, the Liens granted herein shall be deemed to be automatically released and
such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor, or such Grantor shall be
automatically released, as the case may be, in each case, with no further action on the part of any
Person. The Collateral Trustee shall, at the Grantors expense, execute and deliver or otherwise
authorize the filing of such documents as Grantors shall reasonably request, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee, including financing statement amendments to
evidence such release. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms
of the Indenture and the other Security Documents, any holder of the Notes may assign or otherwise
transfer any Secured Obligations held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the holders of the
Notes herein or otherwise. The liens of Collateral shall be released in accordance with Section
4.1 of the Collateral Trust Agreement.
SECTION 10. RESERVED.
SECTION 11. STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL TRUSTEE MAY PERFORM.
The powers conferred on the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee accords
its own property. Neither the Collateral Trustee nor any of its directors, officers, employees or
agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the
Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise.
-37-
SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS.
Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance
with Section 13.02 of the Indenture and Section 7.7 of the Collateral Trust Agreement. No failure
or delay on the part of the Collateral Trustee in the exercise of any power, right or privilege
hereunder or under any other Security 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, the
Indenture and the other Security 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 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 or an Event
of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Collateral Trustee and Grantors and their respective successors and
permitted assigns. Except as permitted under the Security Documents, no Grantor shall, without the
prior written consent of the Collateral Trustee given in accordance with the Indenture, assign any
right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other Security Documents embody the
entire agreement and understanding between Grantors and the Collateral Trustee and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
thereof. Accordingly, the Security 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 SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT
REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THAT WOULD REQUIRE APPLICATION OF LAWS OF ANOTHER STATE.
-38-
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Grantor and the Collateral Trustee have caused this Agreement to be
duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date
first written above.

Ladies and Gentlemen: |
Reference is made to the Second Lien Pledge and Security Agreement (as amended, amended and
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Security Agreement;
capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Security Agreement), dated as of April 6, 2010, among COFFEYVILLE RESOURCES, LLC, the

undersigned, [ ] (the Additional Grantor), pursuant to Section 5.3 of the

Security Agreement on the date of the Security Agreement. The Additional Grantor also hereby
agrees to be bound as a party by all of the terms, covenants and conditions applicable to it set
forth in the Indenture to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory
to the Indenture on the execution date of the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Additional Grantor hereby grants and pledges to the Collateral Agent, as collateral
security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, a security interest in and
continuing lien on, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral and
expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Grantor thereunder. The Additional Grantor
hereby makes each of the representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants
applicable to the Grantor contained in the Security Agreement and the Indenture.
