(ii) subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, take such other actions as shall be necessary or appropriate under applicable law to evidence or perfect its Lien on any Collateral, or otherwise to give effect to the intent of this Security Agreement; and

Reasonably promptly after any change referred to in the preceding sentence, such Grantor shall, to the extent necessary, make all necessary Uniform Commercial Code amendment filings necessary to preserve the perfection and priority of the security interest created by this Security Agreement (to the extent required by this Security Agreement and the Indenture) and shall confirm to the Collateral Agent in writing (and, as and when available, provide any related information reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent) that all filings have been made under the Uniform Commercial Code, and all other actions have been taken, that are required by applicable Law so that such change will not at any time materially and adversely affect the validity, perfection or priority of any Lien on any of the Collateral.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (b) no Notes Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Security Agreement or any other Note Document, nor shall any Notes Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

Section 4.2 Delivery of Pledged Collateral. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor will deliver to the Collateral Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) upon execution of this Security Agreement all certificates or instruments, if any, representing or evidencing the Pledged Collateral (other than checks received in the ordinary course of business), together with duly executed instruments of transfer or assignments in blank. If any Grantor shall at any time after the Issue Date hold or acquire any other Pledged Collateral (other than checks received in the ordinary course of business), such Grantor shall, within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree or the Credit Facility Agent may agree with respect to the Credit Agreement Security Agreement), submit to the Collateral Agent a supplement to Schedule I hereto to reflect such additional Pledged Collateral (provided any Grantor’s failure to do so shall not impair the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein) and, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, deliver to the Collateral Agent all certificates or instruments, if any, representing such Pledged Collateral, together with duly executed instruments of transfer or assignments in blank.

Section 4.3 Uncertificated Pledged Collateral.

Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) copies of any notices or other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Collateral registered in the name of such Grantor. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after prior written notice to the applicable Grantor, the Collateral Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) shall at all times have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Collateral for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Security Agreement.

-13-

(b) Exercise of Rights in Pledged Collateral. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the parties hereto agree that:

(i) Without in any way limiting the foregoing and subject to clause (ii) below, each Grantor shall have the right to exercise all voting rights or other rights relating to the Pledged Collateral for all purposes not prohibited by this Security Agreement, the Indenture, or any other Note Document.

(ii) Each Grantor will permit the Collateral Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after prior written notice to the applicable Grantor, to exercise all voting rights or other rights relating to Pledged Collateral, including, without limitation, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges, or options pertaining to any Equity Interest or Investment Property constituting Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof; provided, that, unless otherwise directed by the Holders that hold the amount of notes required to provide direction as set out in the Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights.

(iii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the other Note Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that any non-cash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Collateral, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Collateral or received in exchange for Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent (or its non-fiduciary agent or designee) in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or instrument of assignment).

Section 4.5 Intellectual Property.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents and approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to or for the benefit of the Collateral Agent of any Intellectual Property held by such Grantor in order to enforce the security interests granted hereunder.

-14-

(b) Each Grantor shall notify the Collateral Agent promptly in writing if it knows that any application or registration relating to any Patent, Trademark or Copyright (now or hereafter existing) included in the Collateral and material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business may in such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment become abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any material adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the USPTO, the Copyright Office or any court (other than routine office actions in the ordinary course)) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such material registered or applied for Patent, Trademark or Copyright, its right to register the same, or to keep and maintain the same.

(c) In the event that any Grantor, either directly or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, (i) files an application for the registration of (or otherwise becomes the owner of) any Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the USPTO or the Copyright Office, (ii) acquires any United States applications for or registrations of any Patent, Trademark, or Copyright, or (iii) obtains an exclusive license to one or more Copyrights registered with the Copyright Office, such Grantor will, concurrently with any delivery of the information pursuant to Section 4.03(a) of the Indenture, provide the Collateral Agent written notice thereof, and any such Intellectual Property shall automatically constitute Collateral and shall be subject to the security interest created by this Security Agreement. Upon request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver any and all security agreements or other instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property and the General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(d) Except to the extent permitted by Section 4.5(f) below, each Grantor shall take all actions reasonably necessary, or otherwise reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights (now or hereafter existing) in each case that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of non-contestability and, if consistent with good business judgment, to initiate opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties.

(e) Each Grantor shall, upon such Grantor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing and shall, if consistent with good business judgment, promptly sue for any material infringement, misappropriation or dilution of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, or shall take such other actions as are appropriate under the circumstances in its reasonable business judgment to protect such Patent, Trademark or Copyright unless it shall reasonably determine that such Patent, Trademark or Copyright is not material to the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole).

(f) Nothing in this Security Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from taking any action with respect to any of its Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the Indenture.

-15-

Section 4.6 Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any Commercial Tort Claims for which such Grantor has filed complaint(s) in court(s) of competent jurisdiction, unless the Collateral Agent otherwise consents or the Credit Facility Agent otherwise consents with regard to the Credit Agreement Security Agreement, and shall update Schedule 9 of the Perfection Certificate, thereby granting to the Collateral Agent a security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim(s). The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort Claim does not exceed $7,500,000 held by each Grantor or to the extent such Grantor shall have previously notified the Collateral Agent in writing with respect to any previously held or acquired Commercial Tort Claim.

ARTICLE V

REMEDIES

Section 5.1 Remedies. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after written notice by the Collateral Agent of its intent to do so:

(a) the Collateral Agent may (and at the direction of the Holders that hold the amount of notes required to provide direction as set out in the Indenture, shall) exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(i) those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement, the Indenture or any other Note Document; provided that this Section 5.1(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights available to the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties prior to an Event of Default;

(ii) those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ Lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement;

(iii) enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help, and without judicial process) to, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable Law, collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice and may take place at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and

-16-

(iv) transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Collateral Agent was the outright owner thereof.

(b) Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the compliance by the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Notes Secured Parties, with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall have the right upon any public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption each Grantor hereby expressly releases.

(d) Until the Collateral Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or the value of the Collateral, or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Collateral Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Notes Secured Parties) with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Collateral Agent nor the Notes Secured Parties shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, the Grantors, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.

(f) Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if any Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so (it being acknowledged and agreed that no Grantor shall have any obligation hereunder to do so).

-17-

The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantor(s) ten days’ prior written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale or other disposition of Collateral.

Section 5.2 Grantors’ Obligations Upon Default. Upon the written request of the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement:

(a) assemble and make available to the Collateral Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places reasonably specified by the Collateral Agent, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere; and

(b) permit the Collateral Agent, by the Collateral Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy.

Section 5.3 Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this Article V upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby (a) grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties, an irrevocable (during the Event of Default) nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property rights now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided, however, (i) that such licenses to be granted hereunder with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks; (ii) that such licenses granted with regard to trade secrets shall be subject to the requirement that the secret status trade secrets be maintained and reasonable steps are taken to ensure that they are maintained; and (iii) that the Collateral Agent shall have no greater rights than those of any such Grantor under such license or sublicense; and (b) as to the rights of Grantors themselves, and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the rights of any third party at law, in equity, or pursuant to any license agreement entered into by a Grantor, irrevocably agrees that, at any time and from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may sell or license any Grantor’s Inventory directly to any Person, including without limitation to Persons who have previously purchased any Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, may (subject to any restrictions contained in applicable third party

-18-

licenses entered into by a Grantor) sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Intellectual Property interest owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Collateral Agent may finish any work in process and affix any relevant Trademark owned by or licensed to any Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein. The use of the license granted pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence by the Collateral Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided, however, that any permitted license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

ARTICLE VI

ACCOUNT VERIFICATION; ATTORNEY IN FACT; PROXY

Section 6.1 Account Verification. The Grantors acknowledge that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default after prior written notice to the relevant Grantor of its intent to do so, the Collateral Agent may in its own name, or in the name of such Grantor, communicate with the Account Debtors of such Grantor to verify with such Persons the existence, amount and terms of, and any other matter reasonably relating to, the Accounts owing by such Account Debtor to such Grantor (including any Instruments, Chattel Paper, payment intangibles and/or other Receivables that are Collateral relating to such Accounts).

Section 6.2 Authorization for Notes Secured Party to Take Certain Action.

(a) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor hereby (i) authorizes the Collateral Agent, without obligation, at any time and from time to time (1) to execute on behalf of such Grantor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, to file financing statements permitted under Section 4.1(b) and (2) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which would not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as shall be necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, to file financing statements permitted under Section 4.1(b), it being expressly understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have an obligation to do so, and (ii) appoints, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact (1) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for Permitted Liens), (2) to endorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral and to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Collateral Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided herein or in the Indenture or any other Note Document, (3) to demand payment or enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Collateral Agent or any Grantor and to endorse any and all checks, drafts, and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, (4) to sign any Grantor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to the Receivables, drafts against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, assignments and verifications of Receivables, (5) to exercise all of any Grantor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other Collateral, (6) to settle,

-19-

adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Receivables, (7) to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect Receivables and (8) to use information contained in any data processing, electronic or information systems relating to Collateral; and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable documented expense incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with any of the foregoing, in accordance with, and solely to the extent required by, Section 7.06 of the Indenture; provided that, this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Indenture.

(b) All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved by the Grantors. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Notes Secured Parties, under this Section 6.2 are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any Notes Secured Party to exercise any such powers.

ARTICLE VII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 7.1 Waivers. Except as set forth in Section 5.1, each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article VIII, at least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Collateral Agent or any Notes Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or such Notes Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Collateral Agent or any Notes Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral (after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default), made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

Section 7.2 Limitation on Collateral Agent’s and Notes Secured Party’s Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Collateral Agent and each Notes Secured Party shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Collateral Agent, nor any Notes Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its

-20-

possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Collateral Agent or such Notes Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it would be commercially reasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as a Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements at the Grantors’ cost to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 7.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 7.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 7.2.

Section 7.3 Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the Collateral Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Collateral Agent may at any time and from time to time, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Collateral Agent shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Collateral Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Collateral Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

-21-

Section 7.4 Notes Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay under this Security Agreement and such Grantor shall reimburse the Collateral Agent for any amounts paid by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 7.4 in accordance with Section 7.06 of the Indenture. Each Grantor’s obligation to reimburse the Collateral Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable in accordance with Section 7.06 of the Indenture.

Section 7.5 No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent or any Notes Secured Party in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement or consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless in writing signed by the Collateral Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the holders of the Notes to the extent required under Article 9 of the Indenture, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

Section 7.6 Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

Section 7.7 Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

-22-

Section 7.8 Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Grantor, the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns (including all Persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties, hereunder.

Section 7.9 Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of each Grantor contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement.

Section 7.10 Expenses. Solely to the extent required by Section 7.06 of the Indenture, each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to promptly reimburse the Collateral Agent for any and all documented out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent, including documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Collateral. Any and all costs and expenses incurred by any Grantor in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by such Grantor.

Section 7.11 Additional Grantors. Pursuant to and in accordance with Section 10.02 of the Indenture, each Grantor shall cause (i) each Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) formed or acquired after the date of this Security Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and (ii) any Restricted Subsidiary that was an Excluded Subsidiary but has ceased to be an Excluded Subsidiary, to enter into this Security Agreement as a Subsidiary Party within sixty (60) days after such formation, acquisition or designation (or, in each case, such longer period as the Collateral Agent may agree or the Credit Facility Agent may agree with respect to the Credit Agreement Security Agreement); for avoidance of doubt, the Company may, in its sole discretion, cause any Restricted Subsidiary that is not required to join this Security Agreement as a Subsidiary Party to execute an instrument in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto. Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral Agent and such Subsidiary of an instrument in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder.

-24-

OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR, ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GRANTOR AND EACH OTHER PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE NOTE DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.15.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund and return any and all amounts paid by Grantors or any of their affiliates under this Section 7.16 to such Indemnitee for any such fees, expenses or damages to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of such amount in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Company upon receipt of written notice of any claim or threat to institute a claim; provided that any failure by any Indemnitee to give such notice shall not relieve the Grantors from the obligation to indemnify such Indemnitee.

-25-

To the extent permitted by applicable Law, none of parties hereto (nor any Indemnitee) shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Grantor or Indemnitee, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Note Document or the use of the proceeds thereof, other than in the case of any such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging (including in .pdf format) means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement and may be used in lieu of original signature pages for all purposes. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Security Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

In the case of a conflict between this Security Agreement and the Mortgages (if any) with respect to Collateral that is real property (including Fixtures), the Mortgages shall govern.

THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ____________, ____, 20__, is entered into between ___________________________, a _______________ (the “New Subsidiary”), and DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”) under the Indenture, dated as of May 30, 2024 (the “Issue Date”), among COTY INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as trustee and collateral agent thereunder (as amended, restated, amended and restated, refinanced, replaced, extended, supplemented and/or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Security Agreement (as defined below).

The New Subsidiary and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, hereby agree as follows:

1. The New Subsidiary hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms that, by its execution of this Agreement, the New Subsidiary will be a Subsidiary Party under the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of the Issue Date, among the Company and certain Subsidiaries of the Company from time to time party thereto, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties (as amended, restated, amended and restated, replaced, supplemented and/or otherwise modified from time to time the “Security Agreement”) for all purposes of the Security Agreement and shall have all of the obligations of a Subsidiary Party thereunder as if it had executed the Security Agreement, including without limitation the grant pursuant to Article II of the Security Agreement of a security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties in the property and property rights constituting Collateral (as defined in Article II of the Security Agreement) of such Subsidiary Party, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired or arising and wherever located, as security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, all with the same force and effect as if the New Subsidiary were a signatory to the Security Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, as collateral security for the payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of the Secured Obligations, the New Subsidiary hereby pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, a security interest in all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral. The New Subsidiary authorizes the Collateral Agent, without obligation, to file UCC financing statements and any related continuation statements describing the Collateral as “all assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or “all personal property and fixtures” of the New Subsidiary or using words of similar effect.

2. The New Subsidiary hereby agrees that each reference in the Security Agreement to a Subsidiary Party shall also mean and be a reference to the New Subsidiary.

3. Attached to this Agreement are a duly completed Schedule I to the Security Agreement, updated Schedules to the Perfection Certificate, and, if applicable, Intellectual Property Security Agreements in substantially the form of Exhibit B to the Security Agreement, in each case, with respect to the New Subsidiary (collectively, the “Supplemental Schedules”). The New Subsidiary represents and warrants that the information contained on each of the Supplemental Schedules with respect to such New Subsidiary and its properties and affairs is true, complete and accurate in all material respects as of the date hereof.

4. The New Subsidiary hereby waives acceptance by the Collateral Agent and the Notes Secured Parties of this Agreement and acknowledges that the Secured Obligations are and shall be deemed to be incurred in reliance on this Agreement and the New Subsidiary’s joinder as a party to the Security Agreement as herein provided.

5. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging (including in .pdf format) means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement and may be used in lieu of original signature pages for all purposes. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

6. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

[THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by its authorized officer, and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, has caused the same to be accepted by its authorized officer, as of the day and year first above written.

This INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “IP Security Agreement”) dated [______], 20__, is among the Persons listed on the signature pages hereof (collectively, the “Grantors”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”) for the Notes Secured Parties (as defined in the Indenture referred to below).

WHEREAS, Coty Inc., a Delaware corporation, has entered into the Indenture dated as of May 30, 2024, with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee and collateral agent (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”). Terms defined in the Indenture or in that certain Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of the Issue Date, among the Grantors and the Collateral Agent (as amended, restated, amended and restated, replaced, supplemented and/or otherwise modified from time to time the “Security Agreement”) and not otherwise defined herein are used herein as defined in the Indenture or the Security Agreement, as the case may be (and in the event a term is defined differently in the Indenture and the Security Agreement, the applicable definition shall be the one given to such term in the Security Agreement).

WHEREAS, under the terms of the Security Agreement, the Grantors have granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, a security interest in, among other property, certain Intellectual Property of the Grantors, and have agreed thereunder to execute this IP Security Agreement for recording with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office and any other appropriate domestic governmental authorities, as applicable.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Grantor agrees as follows:

SECTION 1. Grant of Security. To secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of all Secured Obligations, each Grantor hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties, a security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to all Intellectual Property to the extent governed by, arising under, pursuant to, or by virtue of, the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, including the following (the “Collateral”):

(i) (a) any and all patents and patent applications (whether issued or applied-for in the United States); (b) all inventions and improvements described and claimed therein; (c) all reissues, divisions, continuations, renewals, extensions, and continuations-in-part thereof; (d) all income, royalties, damages, claims, and payments now or hereafter due or payable under and with respect thereto, including, without limitation, damages and payments for past and future infringements thereof; and (e) all rights to sue for past, present, and future infringements thereof (“Patents”);

(ii) (a) all trademarks (including service marks), trade names, trade dress, and trade styles, whether registered or unregistered in the United States, and the registrations and applications for registration thereof and the goodwill of the business symbolized by the foregoing; (b) all renewals of the foregoing; (c) all income, royalties, damages, and payments now or hereafter due or payable with respect thereto, including, without limitation, damages, claims, and payments for past and future infringements thereof; and (d) all rights to sue for past, present, and future infringements of the foregoing, including the right to settle suits involving claims and demands for royalties owing (“Trademarks”); and

(iii) (a) all copyrights, rights and interests in such copyrights, works protectable by copyright, copyright registrations, and applications to register copyright; (b) all renewals of any of the foregoing; (c) all income, royalties, damages, and payments now or hereafter due and/or payable under any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, damages or payments for past or future infringements for any of the foregoing; and (d) the right to sue for past, present, and future infringements of any of the foregoing (“Copyrights”);

(iv) all registrations and applications for registration for any of the foregoing in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, including, without limitation, the registrations and applications for registration of United States intellectual property set forth in Schedule I hereto (as may be supplemented from time to time), together with all reissues, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, extensions, renewals and reexaminations thereof;

provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), the security interest created hereby shall not extend to, and the term “Collateral” shall not include, any Excluded Assets, including, but not limited to, any intent-to-use trademark applications prior to the filing, and acceptance by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, of a “Statement of Use” or “Amendment to Allege Use” with respect thereto, if any, to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant of a security interest therein prior to such filing and acceptance would impair the validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark applications or the resulting trademark registrations under applicable federal law.

SECTION 2. Security for Obligations. The grant of a security interest in the Collateral by each Grantor under this IP Security Agreement secures the payment of all Secured Obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, premiums, penalties, fees, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise.

SECTION 3. Recordation. Each Grantor authorizes and requests that the Register of Copyrights, the Commissioner for Patents and the Commissioner for Trademarks and any other applicable government officer record this IP Security Agreement.

SECTION 4. Counterparts. This IP Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging (including in .pdf or format) means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement and may be used in lieu of original signature pages for all purposes. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 5. Grants, Rights and Remedies. This IP Security Agreement has been entered into in conjunction with the provisions of the Security Agreement. Each Grantor does hereby acknowledge and confirm that the grant of the security interest hereunder to, and the rights and remedies of, the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral are more fully set forth in the Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this IP Security Agreement and the terms of the Security Agreement, the terms of the Security Agreement shall govern.

SECTION 6. Intercreditor Agreement Governs. Notwithstanding anything contrary contained herein, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this IP Security Agreement and the Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Indenture and/or the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control (except that, in the case of any conflict between the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement, such Intercreditor Agreement with respect to the applicable Collateral shall control).

SECTION 7. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; ETC. (A) THIS IP SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.

(B) EACH GRANTOR AND EACH OTHER PARTY TO THIS IP SECURITY AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY NOTE DOCUMENT (EXCLUDING THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS TO THE EXTENT SUCH SECURITY DOCUMENTS EXPRESSLY PROVIDE OTHERWISE), OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF SUCH
