Guarantee

2.1 Guarantee. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the prompt and complete payment and performance by each Borrower when due and payable (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Borrower Obligations of such Borrower owed to the Secured Parties.

(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount that can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable law, including applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors; provided that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, it is the intent of the parties hereto that the rights of contribution of each Guarantor provided in Subsection 2.2 be included as an asset of the respective Guarantor in determining the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Borrower Obligations guaranteed by it hereunder may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder.

(d) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until the earliest to occur of (i) the first date on which all the Loans, all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing, and the obligations of each Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 then due and owing shall have been satisfied by payment in full in cash and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement any of the Borrowers may be free from any Borrower Obligations, (ii) as to any Guarantor, the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (to a Person other than the Borrowers or a Subsidiary Guarantor), or any other transaction or occurrence as a result of which a Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower, in each case that is permitted under the Credit Agreement and (iii) as to any Guarantor, such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary.

(e) No payment made by any Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party from any of the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of any of the Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of any of the Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Borrower Obligations of each Borrower guaranteed by it hereunder up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the earliest to occur of (i) the first date on which all the Loans and all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing, are paid in full in cash, (ii) as to any Guarantor, a sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (other than to a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor), or any other transaction or occurrence as a result of which a Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower, in each case, that is permitted under the Credit Agreement and (iii) as to any Guarantor, such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, including Subsection 2.6 hereof, (i) the obligations of Holdings under this Agreement, including in respect of its Guarantor Obligations, are expressly limited recourse obligations of Holdings, and such obligations shall be payable solely from, limited to, and shall in no event exceed, Holdings’ Pledged Collateral, and (ii) upon the collection, sale or disposition of, or other realization upon, Holdings’ Pledged Collateral by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, whether pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement or otherwise, the obligations of Holdings under this Agreement, including in respect of its Guarantor Obligations, shall be irrevocably and indefeasibly terminated and shall not be subject to reinstatement under any circumstance.

2.2 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share (based, to the maximum extent permitted by law, on the respective Adjusted Net Worths of the Guarantors on the date the respective payment is made) of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder that has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Subsection 2.3. The provisions of this Subsection 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties by any Borrower on account of the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash or any of the Commitments shall remain in effect, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be held as collateral security for all of the Borrower Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) guaranteed by such Guarantor and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied against any Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

2.4 Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations made by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party and any of the Borrower Obligations continued, and the Borrower Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, waived, modified, accelerated, compromised, subordinated, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, waived, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Collateral Agent

or the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or the applicable Lender(s), as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of any of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. None of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for any of the Borrower Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto, except to the extent required by applicable law.

Each Guarantor waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any of the Borrowers or any of the other Guarantors with respect to any of the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees, to the extent permitted by law, that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any and all defenses (other than any claim alleging breach of a contractual provision of any of the Loan Documents) that it may have arising out of or in connection with any and all of the following: (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) that may at any time be available to or be asserted by any of the Borrowers against the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) any change in the time, place, manner or place of payment, amendment, or waiver or increase in any of the Obligations, (d) any exchange, non-perfection, taking, or release of Security Collateral or Primary Collateral, (e) any change in the structure or existence of any of the Borrowers, (f) any application of Security Collateral or Primary Collateral to any of the Obligations, (g) any law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any Obligation or the rights of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect thereto, including (i) the application of any such law, regulation, decree or order, including any prior approval, which would prevent the exchange of any currency (other than Dollars) for Dollars or the remittance of funds outside of such jurisdiction or the unavailability of Dollars in any legal exchange market in such jurisdiction in accordance with normal commercial practice, (ii) a declaration of banking moratorium or any suspension of payments by banks in such jurisdiction or the imposition by such jurisdiction

or any Governmental Authority thereof of any moratorium on, the required rescheduling or restructuring of, or required approval of payments on, any indebtedness in such jurisdiction, (iii) any expropriation, confiscation, nationalization or requisition by such country or any Governmental Authority that directly or indirectly deprives any Borrower of any assets or their use, or of the ability to operate its business or a material part thereof, or (iv) any war (whether or not declared), insurrection, revolution, hostile act, civil strife or similar events occurring in such jurisdiction which has the same effect as the events described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above (in each of the cases contemplated in clauses (i) through (iv) above, to the extent occurring or existing on or at any time after the date of this Agreement), or (h) any other circumstance whatsoever (other than payment in full in cash of the Borrower Obligations guaranteed by it hereunder) (with or without notice to or knowledge of any of the Borrowers or such Guarantor) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Secured Parties that constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any of the Borrowers for the Borrower Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any of the Borrowers, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any of the Borrowers, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

2.6 Reinstatement.

SECTION 6

Remedial Provisions

6.1 Certain Matters Relating to Affiliate Rental Payments. (a) Each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Affiliate Rental Payments constituting Collateral and the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time, without limiting the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent’s rights under Subsection 4.16 of the Credit Agreement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement. If required by the Collateral Agent at any time, without limiting the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s rights under Subsection 4.16 of the Credit Agreement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, any Proceeds constituting Affiliate Rental Payments or other cash proceeds of Affiliate Rental Payments constituting Collateral, when collected by such Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days of receipt by such Grantor) deposited in, or otherwise transferred by such Grantor to, the Collateral Proceeds Account, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in Subsection 6.5, and (ii) until so

turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. All Proceeds constituting collections or other cash proceeds of Accounts Receivable constituting Collateral while held by the Collateral Account Bank (or by any Grantor in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as hereinafter provided. At any time when an Event of Default specified in Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, at the Administrative Agent’s election, each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of the funds on deposit in the Collateral Proceeds Account established by the relevant Grantor to the payment of the Obligations of such Grantor then due and owing, such application to be made as set forth in Subsection 6.5. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the funds on deposit in the Collateral Proceeds Account shall be remitted as provided in Subsection 6.1(c).

(b) At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, at the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s request, each Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent copies or, if required by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent for the enforcement thereof or foreclosure thereon, originals of all documents held by such Grantor evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to such Grantor’s Affiliate Rental Payments constituting Collateral.

(c) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall instruct the Collateral Account Bank to promptly remit any funds on deposit in each Grantor’s Collateral Proceeds Account to a Blocked Account of such Grantor, maintained in compliance with the provisions of Subsection 4.16 of the Credit Agreement. In the event that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent, at its option, may require that each Collateral Proceeds Account of each Grantor be established at the Administrative Agent or at another institution reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Subject to Subsection 4.16 of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to withdraw such of its own funds from its own Blocked Accounts, and to maintain such balances in its Blocked Accounts, as it shall deem to be necessary or desirable.

6.2 Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) The Collateral Agent or the Administrative in its own name or in the name of others, may at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, communicate with obligors under the Accounts Receivable constituting Primary Collateral and parties to the Contracts (in each case, to the extent constituting Collateral) to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s and the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts Receivable or Contracts.

(b) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent’s at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor shall notify obligors on such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable and parties to such Grantor’s Contracts (in each case, to the extent constituting Collateral) that such Accounts Receivable and such Contracts have been assigned to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of such Grantor’s Accounts Receivable to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. None of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Accounts Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Accounts Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(c) Each Pledgor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer or maker of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Pledgor hereunder to, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement and, where applicable, the provisions of any instruction delivered pursuant to any Local Law Security Document in respect of such Pledged Securities (which shall control in the case of any conflict or inconsistency with the provisions of this Subsection), (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing with respect to Capital Stock in such Issuer that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Pledgor, and each Pledgor agrees that each Issuer or maker 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 Securities directly to the Administrative Agent.

6.4 Proceeds to Be Turned Over to the Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent specified in Subsection 6.1 with respect to payments of Affiliate Rental Payments constituting Collateral, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, and the Collateral Agent shall have instructed any Grantor to do so, all Proceeds of Security Collateral received by such Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other Cash Equivalent items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereto, or for any Additional Agent and the other applicable secured parties, or the applicable Collateral Representative, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to

6.5 Application of Proceeds. It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any and all Proceeds of the relevant Granting Party’s Security Collateral received by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent (whether from the relevant Granting Party or otherwise) shall be held by such Person for the benefit of the Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party (whether matured or unmatured), and/or then or at any time thereafter may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, be applied by the Administrative Agent against the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party then due and owing in the order of priority set forth in Subsection 10.15 of the Credit Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Granting Party or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances, forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Security Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith, subject to any existing reserved rights or licenses, sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Security Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. To the extent permitted by law, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall have the right, upon any such sale or sales, to purchase the

whole or any part of the Security Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in such Granting Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Granting Party further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request (subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement), to assemble the Security Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Granting Party’s premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Subsection 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Security Collateral or in any way relating to the Security Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of the relevant Granting Party then due and owing, in the order of priority specified in Subsection 6.5, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Code, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to such Granting Party. To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) such Granting Party waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Security Collateral, other than any such claims, damages and demands that may arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party, and (ii) if any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Security Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Registration Rights. (a) Subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Subsection 6.6, and if in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent it is necessary or reasonably advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Pledgor will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of not more than one year from the date of the first public offering of such Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto. Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all states and the District of Columbia that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

(b) Such Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all such Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged 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. Such 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, to the extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(c) Such Pledgor agrees to use its reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of such Pledged Stock pursuant to this Subsection 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Such Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Subsection 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Subsection 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants (except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing under the Credit Agreement).

6.8 Waiver; Deficiency. Each Granting Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Security Collateral are insufficient to pay in full, the Loans and, to the extent then due and owing, all other Obligations of such Granting Party and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 7

The Collateral Agent

7.1 Collateral Agent’s and Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each Granting Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent and any authorized 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 Granting Party and in the name of such Granting Party or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable law, provided that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree not to exercise such power except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and in

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement), (x) each Pledgor hereby gives the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Pledgor, without notice or assent by such Pledgor, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Subsection 6.6 or 6.7, any endorsements, assessments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such Pledgor’s Pledged Collateral, and (y) each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Accounts Receivable of such Grantor that constitutes Collateral or with respect to any other Collateral of such Grantor and file any claim or take any other action or institute any proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Accounts Receivable of such Grantor that constitutes Collateral or with respect to any other Collateral of such Grantor whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Copyright, Patent, or Trademark constituting Collateral of such Grantor, execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to such Grantor to evidence the Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in such Copyright, Patent, or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby, and such Grantor hereby consents to the non-exclusive royalty free use by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent of any Copyright, Patent or Trademark owned by such Grantor included in the Collateral for the purposes of disposing of any Collateral;

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens, other than Liens permitted to exist under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, levied or placed on the Collateral of such Grantor, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof; and

(iv) (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral of such Grantor to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (B) ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral of such Grantor; (C) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral of such Grantor; (D) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral of such Grantor or any portion thereof and to enforce

any other right in respect of any Collateral of such Grantor; (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor; (F) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (G) subject to any existing reserved rights or licenses, assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark constituting Collateral of such Grantor (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in their sole discretion determine; and (H) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral of such Grantor as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent deem necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral of such Grantor and the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

(b) The reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Subsection 7.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on past due ABR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Granting Party, shall be payable by such Granting Party to the Collateral Agent on demand.

(c) Each Granting Party hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable as to the relevant Granting Party until the earliest to occur of (i) the first date on which all the Loans and all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing, are paid in full in cash, (ii) as to any Grantor, a sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Grantor (other than to a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor), or any other transaction or occurrence as a result of which such Grantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower, in each case, that is permitted under the Credit Agreement and (iii) as to any Grantor, such Grantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary.

7.2 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Security Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. None of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Security Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Security Collateral upon the request of any Granting Party or any other Person or, except as otherwise provided herein, to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Security Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the

Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Security Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Granting Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein or for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

7.3 Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Granting Party authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to such Granting Party’s Security Collateral without the signature of such Granting Party in such form and in such filing offices as the Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Granting Party authorizes the Collateral Agent to use any collateral description reasonably determined by the Collateral Agent, including the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets” or words of similar meaning in any such financing statements, provided that any collateral description in any financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument with respect to Holdings and/or Holdings’ Pledged Collateral shall be limited to an accurate and precise description of Holdings’ Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to notify the relevant Granting Party of any financing or continuation statement filed by it, provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of any such filing.

7.4 Authority of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent. Each Granting Party acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement or any amendment, supplement or other modification of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Granting Parties, on the other hand, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Granting Party shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

7.5 Right of Inspection. Upon reasonable written advance notice to any Grantor and as often as may reasonably be desired, or at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (or its designee) shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to all the books, correspondence and records of such Grantor, and the Administrative Agent and its representatives may examine the same, and to the extent reasonable take extracts therefrom and make photocopies thereof, and such Grantor agrees to render to the Administrative Agent (or its designee) at such Grantor’s reasonable cost and

expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto. The Administrative Agent and its representatives shall also have the right, upon reasonable advance written notice to such Grantor subject to any lease restrictions, to enter during normal business hours into and upon any premises owned, leased or operated by such Grantor where any of such Grantor’s Inventory or Equipment is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting its interests therein to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement).

SECTION 8

Non-Lender Secured Parties

8.1 Rights to Collateral. (a) The Non-Lender Secured Parties shall not have any right whatsoever to do any of the following: (i) exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral (such term, as used in this Section 8, having the meaning assigned to it in the Credit Agreement) or to direct the Collateral Agent to do the same, including the right to (A) enforce any Liens or sell or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral, (B) request any action, institute any proceedings, exercise any voting rights, give any instructions, make any election, notify account debtors or make collections with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral or (C) release any Granting Party under this Agreement or release any Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document or consent to or otherwise approve any such release; (ii) demand, accept or obtain any Lien on any Collateral (except for Liens arising under, and subject to the terms of, this Agreement); (iii) vote in any Bankruptcy Case or similar proceeding in respect of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (any such proceeding, for purposes of this clause (a), a “Bankruptcy”) with respect to, or take any other actions concerning the Collateral; (iv) receive any proceeds from any sale, transfer or other disposition of any of the Collateral (except in accordance with this Agreement); (v) oppose any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral; (vi) object to any debtor-in-possession financing in any Bankruptcy which is provided by one or more Lenders among others (including on a priming basis under Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code); (vii) object to the use of cash collateral in respect of the Collateral in any Bankruptcy; or (viii) seek, or object to the Lenders or Agents seeking on an equal and ratable basis, any adequate protection or relief from the automatic stay with respect to the Collateral in any Bankruptcy.

(b) Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, agrees that in exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, with the consent of the Collateral Agent, may enforce the provisions of the Security Documents and exercise remedies thereunder and under any other Loan Documents (or refrain from enforcing rights and exercising remedies), all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole business judgment. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights to collect, sell, dispose of or otherwise realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, to incur expenses in connection with such collection, sale, disposition or other realization and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in any applicable

jurisdiction. The Non-Lender Secured Parties by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents hereby agree not to contest or otherwise challenge any such collection, sale, disposition or other realization of or upon all or any of the Collateral. Whether or not a Bankruptcy Case has been commenced, the Non-Lender Secured Parties shall be deemed to have consented to any sale or other disposition of any property, business or assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and the release of any or all of the Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document in connection therewith.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Subsection 8.1, the Non-Lender Secured Parties shall be entitled subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleadings (A) in order to prevent any Person from seeking to foreclose on the Collateral or supersede the Non-Lender Secured Parties’ claim thereto or (B) in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Non-Lender Secured Parties. Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, agrees to be bound by and to comply with any applicable Intercreditor Agreement and authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into any applicable Intercreditor Agreement on its behalf.

(d) Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, agrees that the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may deal with the Collateral, including any exchange, taking or release of Collateral, may change or increase the amount of the Borrower Obligations and/or the Guarantor Obligations, and may release any Granting Party from its Obligations hereunder, all without any liability or obligation (except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein) to the Non-Lender Secured Parties.

8.2 Appointment of Agent. Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, shall be deemed irrevocably to make, constitute and appoint the Collateral Agent, as agent under the Credit Agreement (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Person’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, and in such capacity, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, with power of substitution for the Non-Lender Secured Parties and in each such Person’s name or otherwise, to effectuate any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral. It is understood and agreed that the appointment of the Collateral Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Non-Lender Secured Parties for the purposes set forth herein is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. It is understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent has appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent for purposes of perfecting certain of the security interests created hereunder and for otherwise carrying out certain of its obligations hereunder.

8.3 Waiver of Claims. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Non-Lender Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the Collateral Agent or the Lenders with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Lenders or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Loan Documents or any transaction relating to the Collateral (including any such exercise

described in Subsection 8.1(b)), except for any such action or failure to act that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Collateral Agent or any Lender or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any 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 Holdings, any Subsidiary of Holdings, any Non-Lender Secured Party or any other Person or to take any other action or forbear from doing so whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof, except for any such action or failure to act that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person.

8.4 Designation of Non-Lender Secured Parties. The Parent Borrower may from time to time designate a Person as a “Bank Products Affiliate” or a “Hedging Affiliate” hereunder by written notice to the Collateral Agent. Upon being so designated by the Parent Borrower, such Bank Products Affiliate or Hedging Affiliate (as the case may be) shall be a Non-Lender Secured Party for the purposes of this Agreement for as long as so designated by the Parent Borrower.

SECTION 9

Miscellaneous

9.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by each affected Granting Party, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, provided that (a) any provision of this Agreement imposing obligations on any Granting Party may be waived by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in a written instrument executed by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and (b) if separately agreed in writing between the Parent Borrower and any Non-Lender Secured Party (and such Non-Lender Secured Party has been designated in writing by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent for purposes of this sentence, for so long as so designated), no such waiver and no such amendment or modification shall amend, modify or waive Subsection 6.5 (or the definition of “Non-Lender Secured Party” or “Secured Party” to the extent relating thereto) if such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification would directly and adversely affect a Non-Lender Secured Party without the written consent of such affected Non-Lender Secured Party. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any amendment, waiver, supplement or other modification of or to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, through any reference herein to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise, of waiving, amending, supplementing or otherwise modifying this Agreement, or any term or provision hereof, or any right or obligation of any Granting Party hereunder or in respect hereof, shall not be given such effect except pursuant to a written instrument executed by each affected Granting Party, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Subsection 9.1.

9.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Granting Party hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Subsection 11.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on

Schedule 1, unless and until such Guarantor shall change such address by notice to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Subsection 11.2 of the Credit Agreement.

9.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. None of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Subsection 9.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

9.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to pay or reimburse each Secured Party, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent for all their respective reasonable costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement against such Guarantor and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties harmless from, (x) any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other similar taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Security Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (y) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement (collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”), in each case to the extent the Parent Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Subsection 11.5 of the Credit Agreement, and in any event excluding any taxes or other indemnified liabilities arising from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable decision.

(c) The agreements in this Subsection 9.4 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Granting Parties, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns permitted by the Credit Agreement.

9.6 Set-Off. Each Guarantor (other than Holdings) hereby irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party at any time and from time to time without notice to such Guarantor or any other Granting Party, any such notice being expressly waived by each Granting Party, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement so long as any amount remains unpaid after it becomes due and payable by such Guarantor hereunder, to set-off and appropriate and apply against any such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than the Collateral Proceeds Account), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party may elect. The Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party of the proceeds thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party under this Subsection 9.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party may have.

9.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

9.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction; provided that, with respect to any Pledged Stock, all rights, powers and remedies provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that they do not violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to any such Pledged Stock or affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the provisions of this Agreement against the Pledgor (such laws, rules or regulations, “Applicable Law”) and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any Applicable Law.

9.9 Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

9.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND ANY CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY RELATING HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS PRINCIPLES OR RULES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT SUCH PRINCIPLES OR RULES ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND WOULD REQUIRE OR PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

(d) Upon any Security Collateral being or becoming an Excluded Asset, the Lien pursuant to this Agreement on such Security Collateral shall be automatically released. At the request and sole expense of any Granting Party, the Collateral Agent shall deliver such Security Collateral (if held by the Collateral Agent) to such Granting Party and execute, acknowledge and deliver to such Granting Party such releases, instruments or other documents (including UCC termination statements), and do or cause to be done all other acts, as such Granting Party shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

(e) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall at the direction of any applicable Granting Party return to such Granting Party any proceeds or other property received by it during any Event of Default pursuant to either Subsection 5.3.1 or 6.4 and not otherwise applied in accordance with Subsection 6.5.

(f) The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Party as the result of any release of Security Collateral by it in accordance with (or which the Collateral Agent in good faith believes to be in accordance with) this Subsection 9.16.

9.17 Judgment. (a) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Collateral Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of any Guarantor in respect of this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of each holder of Secured Obligations, shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than the currency in which the sum originally due to such holder is denominated (the “original currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Collateral Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the judgment currency, the Collateral Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the original currency with the judgment currency; if the amount of the original currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such holder in the original currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Collateral Agent for the benefit of such holder, against such loss, and if the amount of the original currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent

agrees to remit to the Parent Borrower, such excess. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.18 Transfer Tax Acknowledgment. Each party hereto acknowledges that the shares delivered hereunder are being transferred to and deposited with the Collateral Agent (or other Person in accordance with any applicable Intercreditor Agreement) as security for the Obligations and that this Subsection 9.18 is intended to be the certificate of exemption from New York stock transfer taxes for the purposes of complying with Section 270.5(b) of the Tax Law of the State of New York.

SCHEDULE 8

AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES

The guarantees and security required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document to be provided in support of the Obligations will be given in accordance with the principles set forth in this Schedule 8 (the “Agreed Security Principles”).

The principles set forth in paragraph 2 below shall apply to all guarantees and security provided by any Qualified Loan Party; provided that, with respect to any Helicopter Mortgage, Local Law Security Document, Local Filing or registration of a Registrable Interest, the principles set forth in paragraph 2 below shall be subject to any inconsistent or conflicting provision of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (excluding its Schedules), the Credit Agreement or paragraph 3, 4 or 5 below.

1. Definitions: When used in this Schedule 8, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“ABL Group”: the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

“Protocol”: the Protocol to the Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment on Matters Specific to Aircraft Equipment, referred to in clause (b) of the definition of “Cape Town Convention” in the Credit Agreement.

“CHC Group”: the Parent Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

“IDERA”: an irrevocable de-registration and export request authorization substantially in the form annexed to the Aircraft Protocol.

“Local Helicopter Mortgage”: has the meaning given to it in paragraph 3.2 below.

“Registrable Interest”: an interest which is registrable with the International Registry pursuant to the Cape Town Convention.

2. Agreed Security Principles. The Agreed Security Principles embody recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective guarantees and security from the ABL Group in jurisdictions in which they are organized or conduct business. In particular:

2.1 General statutory limitations, financial assistance, capital maintenance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, “thin capitalization” rules, retention of title claims, exchange control restrictions and similar principles may limit the ability of a member of the ABL Group to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise. The Parent Borrower will use reasonable efforts to demonstrate that adequate corporate benefit accrues to each member of the ABL Group that is a Granting Party.

2.2 The security and extent of its perfection will be agreed taking into account the cost to the ABL Group of providing security and the proportionate benefit accruing to Secured Parties and subject always to the provisions of Subsection 5.2.5(c) of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

2.3 The maximum guaranteed or secured amount will be limited as necessary to minimize stamp duty, notarization, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties where the benefit of increasing the guaranteed or secured amount is disproportionate to the level of such fees, taxes and duties.

2.4 Where there is material incremental cost involved in creating security over all assets owned by a member of the ABL Group in a particular category (e.g. real estate) the principle stated at paragraph 2.2 above shall apply.

2.5 It is acknowledged that in certain jurisdictions it may be either impossible or impractical to create security over certain categories of assets in which event security will not be taken over such assets.

2.6 Any assets, other than Helicopter Equipment included in the Borrowing Base, subject to third party arrangements that prevent those assets from being charged will be excluded from any relevant security document; provided that the relevant member of the ABL Group will use reasonable endeavors to obtain consent to charging any such assets if the Administrative Agent determines the relevant asset to be material and if seeking such consent will not adversely affect the business or commercial relationships of any member of the CHC Group.

2.7 Members of the ABL Group will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents (whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise) if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant members of the ABL Group or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of the directors (or other officers) of the relevant member of the ABL Group or contravene any legal prohibition or regulatory condition or would result in (or in a material risk of) civil or criminal liability on the part of any director (or other officer) of any member of the ABL Group; provided that the relevant ABL Group-member will use reasonable endeavors lawfully available to it to overcome any such obstacle; and provided further that the above limitation shall be assessed in respect of the obligations of such member of the ABL Group under the Loan Documents generally and not just the guarantee or security being granted by such member.

2.8 No member of the ABL Group shall be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than the United States, or required by the laws of any such non-United States jurisdiction, or enter into any security agreement or pledge agreement governed by the laws of any such non-United States jurisdiction, in order to create any security interests (or other Liens) in assets located or titled outside of the United States or to perfect any security interests (or other Liens) in any assets not constituting Primary Collateral or Helicopters.

2.9 Perfection of security, when required, and other legal formalities will be completed as soon as reasonably practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified in this Agreement or the other Security Documents, as applicable, or (if earlier or to the extent no such

time periods are specified in such documents) within the time periods specified by applicable law in order to ensure perfection. The giving of a guarantee, the granting of security or the perfection of the security granted will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the CHC Group to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents.

2.10 To the extent possible, all security shall be given in favor of the Collateral Agent and not the Secured Parties individually; “parallel debt” provisions will be used where necessary and such provisions will be contained in any Applicable Intercreditor Agreement and not the individual security documents unless required under local laws.

2.11 To the extent possible, there should be no action required to be taken in relation to the guarantees or security when any Lender assigns or transfers any of its interests, or grants any participation, in the Revolving Credit Loans to a new lender.

2.12 Any subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor that is a Controlled Foreign Corporation (as defined in the United States Internal Revenue Code) may not give a guarantee or pledge any of its assets (including shares in a subsidiary) as security for an obligation of a United States Person (as defined in the United States Internal Revenue Code). Furthermore, not more than 65% of each class of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote of any such subsidiary may be pledged directly or indirectly as security for an obligation of United States Person. These principles also apply with respect to any entity that becomes a United States Person or a Controlled Foreign Corporation following any guarantee or pledge of assets or shares. These principles also apply to any relevant provision under any other Loan Document, including any Hedging Agreement entered into with any Hedging Affiliate, and any Bank Products Agreement entered into with any Bank Products Affiliate).

2.13 Save as otherwise required under this Agreement, no security will be required over investments/shares in joint ventures or the assets of joint ventures and no joint venture will be required to provide a guarantee.

2.14 Where security is to be granted over a class of assets by a member of the ABL Group and that security includes material and immaterial assets, such member and the Administrative Agent shall agree a threshold in respect of such assets.

3. Principles Applicable to Helicopter Mortgages. The following principles will apply to the grant of any Helicopter Mortgage.

3.1 Except as provided under paragraph 3.2 below, Helicopter Mortgages executed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Such New York governed Helicopter Mortgages and shall be in the form set forth in Annex 4 to this Agreement unless counsel to the Collateral Agent in the jurisdiction of registration, or intended jurisdiction of registration, of the relevant Helicopter have advised the Collateral Agent that a Helicopter Mortgage in such form would not be recognized under the laws of such jurisdiction of registration as being effective in creating a valid first priority perfected security interest (or other Lien) in the Helicopter. In such cases, the Helicopter Mortgage executed by the relevant member

of the ABL Group in respect of such Helicopter shall conform to the form of Helicopter Mortgage set forth in Annex 4 to this Agreement except that amendments to such form shall be made to the minimum extent necessary to enable such form of Helicopter Mortgage to be recognized as creating a first priority perfected security interest (or other Lien) in the relevant Helicopter under the laws of the jurisdiction of its registration.

3.2 The members of the ABL Group recognize and accept that it may be necessary for a Helicopter Mortgage in respect of a particular Helicopter to be governed by laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of New York in order to create or perfect a valid first priority security interest (or other Lien) in such Helicopter in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. In such cases, the relevant member of the ABL Group shall (subject to paragraph 3.3 below) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, in addition to a Helicopter Mortgage in the form set forth in Annex 4 to this Agreement, a Helicopter Mortgage (a “Local Helicopter Mortgage”) governed by such other laws as are necessary to ensure that a valid first priority perfected security interest recognizable under the laws of the relevant Helicopter’s jurisdiction of registration, or intended jurisdiction of registration, is created. A Local Helicopter Mortgage shall provide for its release immediately upon the subject Helicopter being de-registered from the relevant state of registration in relation to which such Local Helicopter Mortgage is required.

3.3 No Local Helicopter Mortgage shall be required in relation to a Helicopter to the extent that (a) the relevant member of the ABL Group has granted an existing Helicopter Mortgage in relation to such Helicopter and local counsel to the Collateral Agent in the jurisdiction of registration, or the intended jurisdiction of registration, of such Helicopter have advised the Collateral Agent that filings with the International Registry in relation to such existing Helicopter Mortgage would provide sufficient legal protection for the Secured Parties without a Local Helicopter Mortgage or (b) the jurisdiction of registration, or the intended jurisdiction of registration, of such Helicopter is one in relation to which the Borrower Representative and the Collateral Agent have agreed a Local Helicopter Mortgage is not required: provided that prior to such agreement the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to seek the advice of counsel in such local jurisdiction when determining whether or not to exercise such discretion.

3.4 The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to require the execution and delivery of such additional documents and instruments (other than further Helicopter Mortgages), including a de-registration powers of attorney and IDERAs, and the taking of such other actions by the ABL Group, in each case as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to ensure the enforceability of a Helicopter Mortgage against third parties under the laws of the jurisdiction of registration of such Helicopter; provided that such documents and instruments do not expand the obligations or limit the rights of the relevant member of the ABL Group in respect of transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

3.5 Save as expressly contemplated above, the terms of any Helicopter Mortgage should be consistent with the terms of the form of Helicopter Mortgage set forth in Annex 4 to this Agreement and the principles applicable to the terms of Security Documents generally, as set forth in paragraph 7 below.

4. Principles Applicable to Local Law Security Documents. The following principles shall apply to the grant of any Local Law Security Documents.

4.1 A key factor in determining whether or not a Local Law Security Document will be required is the applicable cost (including adverse effects on interest deductibility and stamp duty, notarization and registration fees) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit to be obtained by the Secured Parties under the Local Law Security Document.

4.2 The terms of any Local Law Security Document shall be consistent with the principles applicable to the terms of Security Documents generally, as set forth in paragraph 7 below, and the provisions of paragraphs 8 and 9 (to the extent applicable).

5. Principles Applicable to Local Filings and Registrable Interests. The following principles will apply with in relation to any requirement to make any Local Filings or registrations of Registrable Interests.

5.1 Local Filings may (and, with respect to security interests in Airframes, will) be required if and to the extent counsel in the relevant jurisdiction have advised that such Local Filings are necessary to perfect a security interest (or other Lien) in any Primary Collateral, Third Party Lease or Helicopter or to ensure the enforceability of any such security interest (or other Lien) against third parties under the laws of such jurisdiction.

5.2 A key factor in determining whether or not any Local Filing will be required is the applicable cost (including adverse effects on interest deductibility and stamp duty, notarization and registration fees) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit to be obtained by the Secured Parties.

5.3 No registration, filing or recording will be required to be made by the ABL Group, or made by the Collateral Agent, in respect of any security interest, Registrable Interest or other Lien created in any Engine (or any rights in any Engine), except as detailed in Schedule 3 to this Agreement.

5.4 The registration of Registrable Interests shall be confined to registrations of International Interests created in an Airframe or a Third Party Lease pursuant to a Helicopter Mortgage.

6. Principles Applicable to Legal Opinions. The following principles will apply with in relation to any requirement to deliver or obtain a legal opinion in relation to any Security Document.

6.1 A key factor in determining whether or not a legal opinion will be required by the Collateral Agent in respect of any Security Document or Local Filing is the applicable cost (including adverse effects on interest deductibility and stamp duty, notarization and registration fees) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit to be obtained by the Secured Parties.

6.2 It shall be reasonable for the Collateral Agent to require the delivery of a legal opinion issued by counsel to the Collateral Agent in (a) the jurisdiction of the laws governing any

Helicopter Mortgage and (b) the jurisdiction of incorporation of the member of the ABL Group executing such Local Helicopter Mortgage, upon delivery of any Local Helicopter Mortgage entered into pursuant to this Agreement.

7. Terms of Security Documents. The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any Security Document creating a security interest (or other Lien) granted as part of this transaction.

Accordingly, they will not contain any additional representations or undertakings unless these are required for the creation or perfection of the security (as and to the extent that such creation or perfection is required pursuant to the terms this Agreement or the Credit Agreement) of and are no more onerous than any equivalent representation or undertaking in this Agreement or the Credit Agreement.

7.3 Such documents will not contain repeating representations unless these are required for the creation or perfection of the security.

7.4 Such document will secure the obligations of the member of the ABL Group executing such document and will not be enforceable unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

7.5 Any provision for a member of the ABL Group to obtain an acknowledgement or other document shall require only that such member use its reasonable efforts to obtain such acknowledgement or other document, unless such acknowledgement or other document would be necessary for the creation or perfection of the security interest (or other Lien) under the governing law of such Security Document.

7.6 The Collateral Agent and/or the Administrative Agent will only be able to exercise any power of attorney granted to it under or in connection with such documents following the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing.

7.7 No such document shall operate so as to prevent any transaction otherwise permitted under this Agreement and the Credit Agreement or to require additional consents or authorizations. Each such document will permit the disposal of any asset where such disposal is permitted under this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, and the release of security where such release is provided for under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement.

7.8 No document will contain separate provisions for default or penalty interest, tax, gross-up or indemnification provisions.

7.9 Without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders at law, any rights of set off will not be exercisable unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

7.10 It is further acknowledged that pursuant to each Security Document (or, if applicable, this Agreement) the Collateral Agent shall not require that any costs, fees, taxes or other amounts payable in connection with any re-taking, re-notarization, perfection, presentation, novation or re-registration of any security in connection with an assignment or transfer by any Lender be for the account of any member of the CHC Group.

7.11 Information, such as lists of assets, will be provided if and only to the extent (a) required by law to create, enforce, perfect or register the security (and in the case of perfection or registration, only to the extent that the same is required pursuant to the terms of a Security Document) or (b) necessary to enforce the security; provided that such information need not be provided by any member of the CHC Group pursuant to this paragraph more frequently than annually unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and in each case provided that information can be provided without breaching confidentiality requirements or damaging business relationships.

7.12 Each Security Document shall contain a release clause automatically releasing, reassigning and cancelling the security constituted thereby, to the extent that such automatic release is possible under the laws governing such Security Document, and shall otherwise require the Collateral Agent to release or subordinate such security, all in accordance with Subsection 9.16 of this Agreement.

8. Terms of Security Documents Relating to Capital Stock. The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any Security Document creating a security interest (or other Lien) granted as part of this transaction in Capital Stock.

8.1 In respect of any shares charge (or other document creating a security interest (or other Lien) over Capital Stock), until an Event of Default has occurred and notice of enforcement has been given by the Administrative Agent under such document, the pledgor shall be permitted to retain and to exercise voting rights to any shares charged by them it in a manner that does not adversely affect the validity or enforceability of the security or cause an Event of Default to occur and the pledgor shall be permitted to receive payment of cash dividends (other than in connection with any liquidation) upstream on charged shares to the extent permitted under this Agreement.

9.2 If required by local law to perfect the security, notice of the security will be served on the account bank within ten Business Days of the security being granted and the relevant Granting Party shall use its reasonable endeavors to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within

twenty Business Days of service. If the relevant Granting Party has used its reasonable endeavors but has not been able to obtain acknowledgement, its obligation to obtain acknowledgement shall cease on the expiry of that twenty Business Day period. Irrespective of whether notice of the security is required for perfection, if the service of notice would prevent the relevant Granting Party from using a bank account in the course of its business, no notice shall be served until the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing.

9.3 Any security over bank accounts shall be subject to any prior security interests in favor of the account bank which are created either by law or in the standard terms and conditions of the account bank. The notice of security may request these are waived by the account bank, but the CHC Group shall not be required to change its banking arrangements if these security interests are not waived or only partially waived.

9.4 Except in respect of the Lien granted by any Granting Party pursuant to this Agreement or another Security Document, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall not have discretion to refrain from applying or to hold in suspense accounts moneys received from the CHC Group in respect of the Obligations or to exercise any general rights of set-off.

(i) cause the Mortgagor, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee), at the Mortgagor’s expense, to deliver promptly, and the Mortgagor shall deliver promptly, all or such part of Helicopter Collateral as the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) may so demand to the Administrative Agent or its order, or, if the Mortgagor shall have failed to so deliver any such part of the Helicopter Collateral after such demand, the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee), at its option, may enter upon the premises where all or such part of the Helicopter Collateral is located and take immediate possession of and remove the same, subject to all of the rights of the owner, lessor or lien holder;

(ii) sell all or any part of the Helicopter Collateral at public or private sale, whether or not the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall at the time have possession thereof, as the Collateral Agent may determine, or otherwise dispose of, hold, use, operate, lease to others (including the Mortgagor) or keep idle all or any part of the Helicopter Collateral as the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee), in its sole discretion, determines, all free and clear of any rights or claims of the Mortgagor, and the proceeds of such sale or disposition shall be distributed as set forth in Article II;

In connection therewith, the parties hereby agree to the extent permitted by Applicable Law that (i) Article 9(1) and Article 9(2) of the Convention, wherein the parties may agree or the court may order that any Helicopter Collateral shall vest in the Collateral Agent in or towards satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, shall not preclude the Collateral Agent from obtaining title to any Helicopter Collateral pursuant to any other remedies available under Applicable Law (including but not limited to Article 9-620 of the UCC); and (ii) the Collateral Agent may obtain from any applicable court, pending final determination of any claim resulting from an Event of Default, speedy relief in the form of any of the orders specified in Article 13 of the Convention and Article X of the Protocol as the Collateral Agent shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to any procedural requirements prescribed by Applicable Law.

Upon every such taking of possession of any Helicopter Collateral under this Section 3.01, the Collateral Agent may, from time to time, at the expense of the Helicopter Collateral, make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Helicopter Collateral as it deems necessary to maintain the Helicopter Collateral in good working order. In each such case, the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) may maintain, use, operate, store, insure, lease, control, manage or dispose of the Helicopter Collateral and may exercise all rights and powers of the Mortgagor relating to the Helicopter Collateral as the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) reasonably deems best, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance, use, operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Helicopter Collateral or any part thereof as the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) may reasonably determine; and the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall be entitled to collect and receive directly all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income,

(d) Notice of Sale; Bids; Etc. The Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall give the Mortgagor at least 30 days’ prior written notice of any public sale or of the date on or after which any private sale will be held, which notice the Mortgagor hereby agrees to the extent permitted by applicable law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of Article 8(4) of the Convention) is reasonable prior notice. The Mortgagor and its Affiliates shall also be entitled to bid for and become the purchaser of any Helicopter Collateral offered for sale pursuant to this Section 3.02.

(e) Power of Attorney, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Mortgagor irrevocably appoints, while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent (and the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Mortgagor (which appointment is coupled with an interest) in its name and stead and on its behalf, for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or delivery for the enforcement of the Lien of this Helicopter Mortgage, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of sale, or otherwise, to execute and deliver all such bills of sale, assignments and other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall do by virtue hereof in accordance with applicable law; provided that if so requested by the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) or any purchaser, the Mortgagor shall ratify and confirm any such sale, assignment, transfer or delivery, by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments, releases and other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may reasonably be designated in any such request.

No delay or omission

by the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of the Mortgagor or to be an acquiescence therein.

Section 3.03. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall have instituted any proceedings to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Helicopter Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee), then and in every such case the Mortgagor and the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall, subject to any determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Helicopter Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall continue as if no such proceedings had been undertaken (but otherwise without prejudice).

Section 3.04. Appointment of a Receiver. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent (or the Administrative Agent, as its subagent or designee) shall, as a matter of right, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver (who may be the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any successor or nominee thereof) for all or any part of the Helicopter Collateral, whether such receivership be incidental to a proposed sale of the Helicopter Collateral or the taking of possession thereof or otherwise, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company hereby consents to the appointment of such a receiver and will not oppose any such appointment.
