In connection with any such change, the applicable Grantor shall take all action reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in the Collateral, if applicable, and such Grantor agrees to promptly provide the Administrative Agent with certified organizational documents reflecting any of the changes described in the preceding sentence.

 

Perfection of Security Interest. Upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such agreements, assignments or instruments and do all such other things as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary, appropriate or convenient (i) to assure to the Administrative Agent the effectiveness, perfection and priority of its security interests in the Collateral hereunder, including (A) such instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request in order to perfect and maintain the security interests granted hereunder in accordance with the UCC, (B) with regard to Copyrights, a Notice of Grant of Security Interest in Copyrights for filing with the United States Copyright Office in the form of Exhibit 5(d)(i) attached hereto, (C) with regard to Patents issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, a Notice of Grant of Security Interest in Patents for filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office in the form of Exhibit 5(d)(ii) attached hereto and (D) with regard to Trademarks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and all applications for Trademarks filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, a Notice of Grant of Security Interest in Trademarks for filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office in the form of Exhibit 5(d)(iii) attached hereto, (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and (iii) to otherwise protect and assure the Administrative Agent of its rights and interests hereunder. To that end, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file one or more financing statements (with collateral descriptions broader, including without limitation “all assets” and/or “all personal property” collateral descriptions, and/or less specific than the description of the Collateral contained herein) disclosing the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any or all of the Collateral of such Grantor without such Grantor’s signature thereon, and further each Grantor also hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, its nominee or any other Person whom the Administrative Agent may designate, as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact with full power and for the limited purpose to sign in the name of such Grantor any such financing statements (including renewal statements), amendments and supplements, notices or any similar documents that in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion would be necessary, appropriate or convenient in order to perfect and maintain perfection of the security interests granted hereunder, such power, being coupled with an interest, being and remaining irrevocable so long as the Secured Obligations (other than (x) Hedging Agreements entered into with a Hedging Bank, (y) Treasury Management Agreements entered into with Treasury Management Banks, or (z) contingent indemnification obligations or contingent expense reimbursement, indemnification, yield protection or tax gross-up obligations, in each case for which no claim has been made) remain unpaid and until the commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated. Each Grantor hereby agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any such financing statement is sufficient for filing as a financing statement by the Administrative Agent without notice thereof to such Grantor wherever the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion desire to file the same. In the event for any reason the law of any jurisdiction other than New York becomes or is applicable to the Collateral of any Grantor or any part thereof, or to any of the Secured Obligations, such Grantor agrees to execute and deliver all such instruments and to do all such other things as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary, appropriate or convenient to preserve, protect and enforce the security interests of the Administrative Agent under the law of such other jurisdiction (and, if a Grantor shall fail to do so promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may execute any and all such requested documents on behalf of such Grantor pursuant to the power of attorney granted hereinabove). If any Collateral is in the possession or control of a Grantor’s agents and the Administrative Agent so requests, such Grantor agrees to notify such agents in writing of the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein and, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so requests, instruct them to hold all such Collateral for the account of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions. Each Grantor agrees to mark its books and records to reflect the security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Grantors shall not be required to obtain landlord waivers or consents with respect to any Collateral located on any real property leased by any Grantor.

 

Control. Execute and deliver (and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause third parties to execute and deliver) all agreements, assignments, instruments or other documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining and maintaining control within the meaning of the UCC with respect to any Collateral consisting of Deposit Accounts.

 

Collateral held by Warehouseman, Bailee, etc. If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee (other than carriers transporting Inventory and Equipment in the ordinary course of business), agent or processor of such Grantor and is expected to remain in possession and control of such third party, (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such possession or control and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, take such action as the Administrative Agent shall request, including without limitation, (A) notify such Person of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Collateral, (B) instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for the account of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors and subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions and (C) obtain an acknowledgment from such Person that it is holding such Collateral for the benefit of the Administrative Agent.

 

Covenants Relating to Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks.

 

(i)     Not make any assignment or agreement in conflict with the security interest in the material Copyrights of each Grantor hereunder (other than in connection with a Permitted Lien or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement).

 

(ii)     Not make any assignment or agreement in conflict with the security interest in the material Patents or Trademarks of each Grantor hereunder (other than in connection with a Permitted Lien or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement).

 

Insurance. Such Grantor shall maintain insurance covering the Collateral in accordance with Section 6.8 of the Credit Agreement.

 

Commercial Tort Claims.

 

(i)     Promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the initiation of any Commercial Tort Claim in excess of $1,000,000 before any Governmental Authority by or in favor of such Grantor and grant to the Administrative Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

(ii)     Execute and deliver such statements, documents and notices and do and cause to be done all such things as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary, appropriate or convenient, or as are required by law, to create, perfect and maintain the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any Commercial Tort Claim in excess of $1,000,000.

 

6.     Advances by Secured Creditors. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and upon notice from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, upon prior notice to the Grantors, perform the following and in so doing may expend such sums as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable in the performance thereof: the payment of any insurance premiums, the payment of any taxes, a payment to obtain a release of a Lien or potential Lien, expenditures made in defending against any adverse claim and all other expenditures that the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors may make for the protection of the security hereof or may be compelled to make by operation of law. All such sums and amounts so expended shall be repayable by the Grantors on a joint and several basis (subject to Section 22 hereof) promptly upon timely notice thereof and demand therefor, shall constitute additional Secured Obligations and shall bear interest from the date said amounts are expended at the Default Interest rate. No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors on behalf of any Grantor, and no such advance or expenditure therefor, shall relieve the Grantors of any default under the terms of this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent may make any payment hereby authorized in accordance with any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged, without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by a Grantor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

 

7.     Remedies.

 

(a)     General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or by applicable law (including, without limitation, levy of attachment and garnishment), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral and, further, the Administrative Agent may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of others to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) without breach of the peace, enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Grantors, take possession of the Collateral, (ii) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (iii) require the Grantors to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent at the expense of the Grantors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (v) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or process of law, all of which each of the Grantors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion (subject to any and all mandatory legal requirements). Each of the Grantors acknowledges that any private sale referenced above may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and terms that might have been obtained at a public sale. In addition to all other sums due the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors with respect to the Secured Obligations, the Grantors shall pay the Administrative Agent and each of the Secured Creditors all reasonable documented costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any such Secured Creditor, in enforcing its remedies hereunder including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and court costs, in obtaining or liquidating the Collateral, in enforcing payment of the Secured Obligations, or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding by or against the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors or the Grantors concerning any matter arising out of or connected with this Security Agreement, any Collateral or the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing arising in, arising under or related to a case under the Debtor Relief Laws. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Grantor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower in accordance with the notice provisions of 11.1 of the Credit Agreement at least ten Business Days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by law, any Secured Creditor may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Grantors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Administrative Agent may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place.

 

(b)     Remedies relating to Accounts. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, whether or not the Administrative Agent has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, (i) each Grantor will promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent instruct all account debtors to remit all payments in respect of Accounts to a mailing location selected by the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce any Grantor’s rights against its customers and account debtors, and the Administrative Agent or its designee may notify (or require any Grantor to notify) any Grantor’s customers and account debtors that the Accounts of such Grantor have been assigned to the Administrative Agent or of the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein, and may (either in its own name or in the name of a Grantor or both) demand, collect (including without limitation by way of a lockbox arrangement), receive, take receipt for, sell, sue for, compound, settle, compromise and give acquittance for any and all amounts due or to become due on any Account, and, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, file any claim or take any other action or proceeding to protect and realize upon the security interest of the Secured Creditors in the Accounts. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be solely for the Administrative Agent’s own convenience. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors shall have no liability or responsibility to any Grantor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance. Each Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors from and against all liabilities, damages, losses, actions, claims, judgments, costs, expenses, charges and attorneys’ fees suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) because of the maintenance of the foregoing arrangements except as relating to or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party or its officers, employees or agents. In the case of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding, the foregoing indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by a Grantor, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any other Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto.

 

(c)     Access. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, pursuant to a judicial process or without breach of the peace, to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Grantors without cost or charge to the Administrative Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Grantors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral.

 

(d)     Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Security Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by law, or any delay by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Administrative Agent, the Secured Creditors, nor any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors under this Security Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors may have.

 

(e)     Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors are legally entitled, the Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency (subject to Section 22 hereof), together with interest thereon at the Default Interest rate, together with the costs of collection and attorneys’ fees and expenses. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Grantors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.

 

8.     Rights of the Administrative Agent.

 

(a)     Power of Attorney. Each Grantor hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Creditors, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Grantor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

 

(i)     to demand, collect, settle, compromise and adjust, and give discharges and releases concerning the Collateral, all as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate;

 

(ii)     to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any of the Collateral and enforcing any other right in respect thereof;

 

(iii)     to defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate;

 

(iv)     to receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to a Grantor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the Collateral on behalf of and in the name of such Grantor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral;

 

(v)     to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

 

(vi)     to direct any parties liable for any payment in connection with any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct;

 

(vii)     to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims, and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;

 

(viii)     to sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services that have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes;

 

(ix)     to adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto;

 

(x)     to execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, renewal financing statements, security and pledge agreements, affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this Security Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated therein;

 

(xi)     to institute any foreclosure proceedings that the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and

 

(xii)     to do and perform all such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate or convenient in connection with the Collateral.

 

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations (other than (x) Hedging Agreements entered into with a Hedging Bank, (y) Treasury Management Agreements entered into with Treasury Management Banks, or (z) contingent indemnification obligations or contingent expense reimbursement, indemnification, yield protection or tax gross-up obligations, in each case for which no claim has been made) shall remain outstanding and until all of the commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Security Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral.

 

(b)     The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder and to account for all proceeds thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Grantors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Grantors. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.

 

(c)     Release of Collateral. To the extent permitted by and in accordance with the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent may release any of the Collateral from the liens created pursuant to this Security Agreement or may substitute any of the Collateral for other Collateral without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Security Agreement as to any Collateral not expressly released or substituted, and this Security Agreement shall continue as a lien on all Collateral not expressly released or substituted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under this Security Agreement (i) upon the termination of the Security Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, (ii) that is transferred or to be transferred (other than a transfer to another Grantor) as part of or in connection with any transfer or other disposition permitted under the Loan Documents, or (iii) as approved in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

 

9.     Application of Proceeds. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, any payments hereunder and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent or any of the Secured Creditors in cash or its equivalent, will be applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement, and each Grantor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of such payments and proceeds and acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and proceeds in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, notwithstanding any entry to the contrary upon its books and records.

 

10.     Continuing Agreement.

 

(a)     This Security Agreement shall be a continuing agreement in every respect and shall remain in full force and effect so long as any of the Secured Obligations (other than (x) Hedging Agreements entered into with a Hedging Bank, (y) Treasury Management Agreements entered into with Treasury Management Banks, or (z) contingent indemnification obligations or contingent expense reimbursement, indemnification, yield protection or tax gross-up obligations, in each case for which no claim has been made) remains outstanding and until all of the commitments relating thereto have been terminated. Upon payment or other satisfaction of all Secured Obligations (other than (x) Hedging Agreements entered into with a Hedging Bank, (y) Treasury Management Agreements entered into with Treasury Management Banks, or (z) contingent indemnification obligations or contingent expense reimbursement, indemnification, yield protection or tax gross-up obligations, in each case for which no claim has been made) and termination of all commitments relating thereto, this Security Agreement shall be automatically terminated and the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request and at the expense of the Grantors, forthwith release all of its liens and security interests hereunder, shall return all certificates or instruments pledged hereunder and shall execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents reasonably requested by the Grantors evidencing such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all releases and indemnities provided hereunder shall survive termination of this Security Agreement.

 

(b)     This Security Agreement shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor in defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Secured Obligations.

 

11.     Amendments and Waivers. This Security Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived, modified, changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement.

 

12.     Successors in Interest. This Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that, except as provided in the Credit Agreement, none of the Grantors may assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby releases the Administrative Agent and each Secured Creditor, and their respective successors and assigns, from any liability for any act or omission relating to this Security Agreement or the Collateral, except for any liability arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such holder, or their respective Related Parties.

 

13.     Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given under this Security Agreement shall be given as provided in Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement.

 

14.     Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which where so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Security Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

 

15.     Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Security Agreement.

 

16.     Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. The terms of Sections 11.5 and 11.6 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

 

17.     Severability. If any provision of this Security Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

 

18.     Entirety. This Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

 

19.     Survival. All representations and warranties of the Grantors hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the delivery of the Revolving Credit Notes and the extension of credit thereunder or in connection therewith.

 

20.     Other Security. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real property and securities owned by a Grantor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law the Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or the Secured Obligations or any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Creditors under this Security Agreement, under any of the other Loan Documents or under any other document relating to the Secured Obligations.

 

21.     Joint and Several Obligations of Grantors.

 

(a)     Each of the Grantors is accepting joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodation to be provided by the Secured Creditors, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Grantors and in consideration of the undertakings of each of the Grantors to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each of them.

 

(b)     Each of the Grantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Grantors with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations arising under this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Secured Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Grantors without preferences or distinction among them.

 

(c)     Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any other of the Loan Documents or in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the obligations of each Guarantor under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law.

 

22.     Joinder. At any time after the date of this Security Agreement, one or more additional Persons may become party hereto by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement. Immediately upon such execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement (and without any further action), each such additional Person will become a party to this Security Agreement as a “Grantor” and have all of the rights and obligations of a Grantor hereunder, and this Security Agreement and the Schedules hereto shall be deemed amended by such Joinder Agreement. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.
