to any of the foregoing Shared Collateral, (B) tort claims, including,
without limitation, all commercial tort claims and (C) cash.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2,
the following property shall be excluded from the lien and security interest
granted hereunder (and shall, as applicable, not be included as "Shared
Collateral", "Equipment", "Inventory", "Receivables", "Related Contracts",
"Security Collateral", "Agreement Collateral", "Account Collateral",
"Intellectual Property Collateral", "Commercial Tort Claims Collateral",
"Assigned Agreements", "Pledged Equity" or "Pledged Debt" for the purposes
hereof):
(i) any Shared Collateral constituting property that is the subject
of or relating to any contract, agreement or other document to which any
Grantor is a party on the date hereof or any similar contract, agreement or
other document entered into by such Grantor after the date hereof shall, in
each case, be excluded from the lien and security interest created by such
Grantor under this Section 2 to the extent (but only to the extent) that
the assignment thereof, or the creation of a lien and security interest
therein, would constitute a breach of the terms of such contract, agreement
or other document, or would cause a default or event of default under the
terms of such contract, agreement or other document, or would permit any
party to such contract, agreement or other document to terminate any
material contract right arising under any such contract agreement or other
document or to exercise any put, call, right of refusal, purchase option or
other similar right, or would permit any party to such contract, agreement
or other document to terminate such contract, agreement or other document;
provided, however, that any of the Excluded Shared Collateral shall
automatically cease to be excluded from this Section 2 at such time as (x)
the prohibition of assignment or of the creation of a lien and security
interest in such Excluded Shared Collateral is no longer in effect or is
rendered ineffective as a matter of law or (y) the applicable Grantor has
obtained the consent of the other parties to such agreement to the
assignment of, or creation of a lien and security interest in, such
Excluded Shared Collateral (which consent such Grantor shall not be
required to obtain hereunder, except upon a request of the Collateral
Trustees after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default) or (z) the breach, default, event of default or any other
conditions otherwise giving rise to the exclusion of such property under
this clause (i) shall cease to exist;
(ii) any contract, agreement or other document (and any contract
rights arising thereunder) to which any of the Grantors is a party on the
date hereof and any similar
13
contract or agreement entered into by any Grantor after the date hereof, in
each case, shall be excluded from the lien and security interest granted by
such Grantor under this Section 2 to the extent (but only to the extent)
that the assignment thereof, or the creation of a lien and security
interest therein, would constitute a breach of the terms of such contract,
agreement or other document to which any of the Grantors may now or
hereafter be a party or to which any Grantor may now or hereafter be
subject, or would cause a default or event of default under the terms of
such contract, agreement or other document, or would permit any party to
such contract, agreement or other document to terminate any material
contract right arising under any such contract agreement or other document
or to exercise any put, call, right of refusal, purchase option or other
similar right, or would permit any party to such contract, agreement or
other document to terminate such contract, agreement or other document (all
such contracts, agreements and other documents being the "Excluded
Agreements"); provided, however, that (x) except as set forth in clause
(iv) below, the exclusion from the lien and security interest granted by
such Grantor hereunder of any contract rights of any of the Grantors under
one or more of the Excluded Agreements shall not limit, restrict or impair
the grant by such Grantor of the lien and security interest in any accounts
or receivables arising under any such Excluded Agreement or any payments
due or to become due thereunder, and (y) any of the Excluded Agreements
shall automatically cease to be excluded from this Section 2 at such time
as, (A) the prohibition of assignment or of the creation of a lien and
security interest in such agreement is no longer in effect or is rendered
ineffective as a matter of law or (B) the applicable Grantor has obtained
the consent of the other parties to such agreement to the assignment of, or
creation of a lien and security interest in, the contract rights of such
Grantor thereunder (which consent such Grantor shall not be required to
obtain hereunder, except upon a request of the Collateral Trustees after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default);
(iii) any license, permit or authorization from any Governmental
Authority in favor of any Grantor shall be excluded from the lien and
security interest granted by such Grantor under this Section 2 to the
extent (but only to the extent) that the assignment thereof or the creation
of a lien and security interest therein would constitute a breach of or a
default or event of default under the terms of such license, permit or
authorization or would require any separate license, permit or
authorization or would otherwise terminate such license, permit or
authorization (all of the licenses, permits and authorizations referred to
herein being the "Excluded Authorizations"); provided, however, that any of
the Excluded Authorizations shall cease to be excluded from this Section 2
at such time as (x) the prohibition of assignment or of the creation of a
lien and security interest in such license, permit or authorization is no
longer in effect or is rendered ineffective as a matter of law or (y) the
applicable Grantor has obtained the consent of the applicable Governmental
Authority to the assignment of, or creation of a lien and security interest
in, such license, permit or authorization of such Grantor (which consent
such Grantor shall not be required to obtain hereunder, except upon a
request of the Collateral Trustees after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default);
(iv) any Permitted Collateral of any Grantor from time to time
pledged, assigned, conveyed or transferred, or against which any right of
set-off is granted or in which a Lien or security interest is granted, by
such Grantor under any Permitted
14
Contract or Netting Agreement shall be excluded from the lien and security
interest granted by such Grantor under this Section 2. To the extent any
such lien and security interest is deemed to be granted pursuant to this
Agreement in such Permitted Collateral hereunder notwithstanding the
exclusion contemplated hereby, such lien and security interest shall ipso
facto immediately and automatically terminate, without any further action
by any Person, upon any such pledge, assignment, conveyance, transfer,
grant of such right of set-off or grant of such Lien and security interest,
provided, however, that any such Permitted Collateral shall cease to be
excluded from this Section 2 at such time as (x) the Permitted Contract or
Netting Agreement, as the case may be, related thereto is terminated and
the setoff rights, Lien and security interest granted in such Permitted
Collateral are terminated or (y) the applicable Grantor has obtained the
consent of the applicable Counterparty to such Permitted Contracts or
Netting Agreements to the assignment of, or creation of a lien and security
interest in such Permitted Collateral hereunder (which consent such Grantor
shall not be required to obtain hereunder, except upon a request of the
Collateral Trustees after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default);
(v) as to each Grantor, any outstanding voting stock of any entity
that is a controlled foreign corporation under Section 957 of the Internal
Revenue Code (or any successor provision thereto), except for voting stock
consisting of no more than 66% of the outstanding voting stock of such
entity (any such stock being the "Excluded Equity"); and
(vi) any property or accounts (including without limitation, coal,
power, energy, other energy related products, natural gas, natural gas
liquids, condensate, and sulfur, and including any other products resulting
from generating, gas gathering, processing, fractionating and refining,
marketed by any Grantor on behalf of third parties and the proceeds derived
therefrom pursuant to processing agreements and/or marketing arrangements),
to the extent (but only to the extent) that any Grantor manages, maintains
or markets such property on behalf of a third party, including, without
limitation, any Shared Collateral maintained, managed or marketed by any
Grantor for a joint venture in which third parties participate or on behalf
of third parties;
(vii) any policy of insurance, provided, however, that proceeds of
insurance shall be included as Shared Collateral to the extent the security
interest granted hereby in the goods covered by such insurance would
continue in accordance with Section 9-315 of the UCC; and
(viii) the shares of stock or such other Equity Interests owned by and
set forth opposite any relevant Grantor's name on Schedule II-A hereto;
provided, however, that any proceeds received by any Grantor from the
Disposition of Excluded Shared Collateral, Excluded Authorizations, Excluded
Receivables, Excluded Equity and any other property excluded under clauses (i)
through (viii) above shall constitute Shared Collateral unless any assets or
property constituting such proceeds are themselves subject to the exclusions set
forth in clauses (i) through (viii) above.
15
Section 3. Security for Obligations. (a) Subject to the provisions of
Sections 3(b) and 3(c) below, this Shared Security Agreement secures, in the
case of each Grantor, the payment of all Shared Secured Obligations, whether
direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal,
reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, premiums, penalties,
indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Shared Security Agreement
secures, as to each Grantor, the payment of all amounts that constitute part of
the Shared Secured Obligations and would be owed by such Grantor to any Shared
Secured Party but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due
to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving
a Loan Party.
(b) With respect to any Shared Collateral described herein that
constitutes Black Thunder Collateral, the Lien created by this Shared Security
Agreement and the other Collateral Documents shall be, until such time (the
"Black Thunder Determination Date") as all Black Thunder Secured Obligations
have been satisfied in full, a second priority Lien (subject to Permitted
Liens), subordinate in all respects (including the exercise of remedies with
respect to such Shared Collateral) to the prior Lien of the Black Thunder
Collateral Documents on the terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit K to the
Credit Agreement.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any
Shared Collateral described that constitutes Principal Property shall secure
only (i) the Shared Secured Obligations in respect of the Principal Property
Secured Term Indebtedness and (ii) the Shared Secured Obligations in respect of
each Credit Extension under the Revolving Credit Facility or any issuance of a
letter of credit under the Alpha Facility to the extent that at the time of such
Credit Extension or such issuance of a letter of credit, it does not violate
Section 1006(b) of the 1995 Indenture or Section 10.06(b) of the 1996 Indenture.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is
agreed that, with respect to the Parent Guarantor, the "Shared Collateral" shall
include only the Parent Guarantor's right, title and interest to the following,
in each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Parent Guarantor,
and whether now or hereafter existing or arising:
(i) the Initial Pledged Equity set forth opposite the Parent
Guarantor's name on and otherwise described in Part I of Schedule II hereto
and issued by the Borrower and BG Holdings, Inc., respectively, and the
certificates, if any, representing such Initial Pledged Equity, and all
dividends, distributions, return of capital, cash, instruments and other
property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in
respect of or in exchange for any or all of such Initial Pledged Equity and
all subscription warrants, rights or options issued thereon or with respect
thereto;
(ii) all additional shares of stock and other Equity Interests of or
in the Borrower, BG Holdings, Inc. or any successor entity (such shares and
other Equity Interests, together with the Initial Pledged Equity, being
part of the Pledged Equity), and the certificates, if any, representing
such additional shares or other Equity Interests, and all dividends,
distributions, return of capital, cash, instruments and other property from
time to time received, receivable or
16
otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such
shares or other Equity Interests and all subscription warrants, rights or
options issued thereon or with respect thereto; and
(iii) all proceeds of, collateral for, income, royalties and other
payments now or hereafter due and payable with respect to, and supporting
obligations relating to, any and all of the foregoing.
It is further acknowledged and agreed that (x) the Parent Guarantor is
signing this Shared Security Agreement solely for the purpose of granting a
security interest in the foregoing property, (y) the security interests granted
by the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not cover any property of the Parent
Guarantor other than the foregoing property, and (z) any representations,
warranties, covenants, and agreements made by the Parent Guarantor herein shall
relate only to the foregoing property.
Section 4. Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and
agreements included in such Grantor's Shared Collateral to the extent set forth
therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same
extent as if this Shared Security Agreement had not been executed, (b) the
exercise by the Collateral Trustees 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 Shared Collateral and (c) none of the Collateral
Trustees, any Representative or any Shared Secured Party shall have any
obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the
Shared Collateral by reason of this Shared Security Agreement or any other Loan
Document, nor shall any of the Collateral Trustees, any Representative or any
Shared 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 or thereunder.
Section 5. Delivery and Control of Security Collateral. (a) With
respect to any certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security
Collateral (other than instruments representing or evidencing Investments
permitted by Section 7.02(b) of the Credit Agreement), to the extent that any
relevant Grantor has Knowledge of the existence of such certificates and
instruments, such certificates and instruments shall be delivered to and held by
or on behalf of the Collateral Trustees pursuant to this Shared Security
Agreement and the Collateral Trust Agreement and shall be in suitable form for
transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Trustees shall have the
right, at any time in their discretion and with notice to the Borrower, to
transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Trustees or any of
their nominees any or all of the Security Collateral, subject only to the
revocable rights specified in Section 13(a), provided, however, that the failure
to deliver any such notice to the Borrower shall not affect the validity of such
actions of the Collateral Trustees. In addition, after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Trustees shall have the
right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing Security Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or
larger denominations.
17
(b) With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has
any right, title or interest and that constitutes an uncertificated security, to
the extent that such Grantor has Knowledge of the existence of such
uncertificated securities, such Grantor will cause the issuer thereof either (at
such Grantor's election) (i) to register the Collateral Trustees as the
registered owners of such security or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record
with such Grantor and the Collateral Trustees that such issuer will comply with
instructions with respect to such security originated by the Collateral Trustees
without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated record to be in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees provided,
however, that the Collateral Trustees agree that they will not deliver any such
instructions to such issuer except upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default. With respect to any Security Collateral in
which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that is not an
uncertificated security, upon the request of the Collateral Trustees after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor will
notify each such issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to
the security interest granted hereunder.
(c) With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has
any right, title or interest and that constitutes a security entitlement in
which the Collateral Trustees are not the entitlement holder, to the extent that
such Grantor has Knowledge of the existence of such security entitlements, such
Grantor will cause the securities intermediary with respect to such security
entitlement either (at such Grantor's election) (i) to identify in its records
the Collateral Trustees as the entitlement holders of such security entitlement
against such securities intermediary or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record
with such Grantor and the Collateral Trustees that such securities intermediary
will comply with entitlement orders (that is, notifications communicated to such
securities intermediary directing transfer or redemption of the financial asset
to which such Grantor has a security entitlement) originated by the Collateral
Trustees without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated record to
be in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto or otherwise in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees (such agreement
being a "Securities Account Control Agreement").
(d) With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has
any right, title or interest and that constitutes a commodity contract, to the
extent that such Grantor has Knowledge of the existence of such commodity
contracts, such Grantor shall cause the commodity intermediary with respect to
such commodity contract to agree in an authenticated record with such Grantor
and the Collateral Trustees that such commodity intermediary will apply any
value distributed on account of such commodity contract as directed by the
Collateral Trustees without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated
record to be in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto or otherwise in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees (such agreement
being a "Commodity Account Control Agreement", and all such authenticated
records, together with all Securities Account Control Agreements being,
collectively, "Security Control Agreements").
(e) No Grantor will change or add any securities intermediary or
commodity intermediary that maintains any securities account or commodity
account in which any of the Shared Collateral is credited or carried, or change
or add any such securities account or commodity account, in each case without
first complying with the above provisions of this Section 5 in order to perfect
the security interest granted hereunder in such Shared Collateral.
18
For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5(f) shall not apply
to any securities account or commodity account that any Grantor manages or
maintains on behalf of third parties, such as securities accounts and commodity
accounts maintained or managed by any Grantor for a joint venture in which third
parties participate.
(f) Upon the request of the Collateral Trustees upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor will notify each
such issuer of Pledged Debt that such Pledged Debt is subject to the security
interest granted hereunder.
(h) To the extent that any of the Shared Collateral constituting money
or any of the Account Collateral or any Security Collateral is subject to a
Permitted Lien and such Permitted Lien has been perfected through control (as
such term is used in Sections 9-104 and 9-106 of the UCC) or possession,
perfection through possession or control of the security interest created
hereunder shall not be required.
Section 6. Maintaining the Account Collateral. So long as any Shared
Secured Obligations (other than indemnification obligations that are not yet due
and payable) which are accrued and payable shall remain unpaid and unsatisfied,
or any Letter of Credit (with respect to which any reimbursement obligation
related thereto constitutes a Shared Secured Obligation) shall remain
outstanding:
(a) Each Grantor will maintain all Designated Accounts only with the
Collateral Trustees or with banks (the "Pledged Account Banks") that have
agreed, in a record authenticated by the Grantor, the Collateral Trustees
and the Pledged Account Banks, to (i) comply with instructions originated
by the Collateral Trustees (as set forth in the Account Control Agreement)
directing the disposition of funds in the Designated Accounts without the
further consent of the Grantor and (ii) waive or subordinate (other than as
agreed between any Pledged Account Bank and the Collateral Trustees) in
favor of the Collateral Trustees all claims of the Pledged Account Banks
(including, without limitation, claims by way of a security interest, lien
or right of setoff or right of recoupment) to the Account Collateral, which
authenticated record shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B
hereto, or shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Collateral Trustees (the "Account Control Agreement"); provided,
however, this Section 6(a) shall not apply to Other Deposit Accounts listed
in Schedule V hereto, as such Schedule may be updated from time to time.
(b) Subject in all respects to the provisions of Section 5(h)
hereof, each Grantor agrees that it will not add any bank that maintains a
deposit account for such Grantor or open any new deposit account with any
then existing Pledged Account Bank unless (i) the Collateral Trustees shall
have received at least 10 days' prior written notice of such additional
bank or such new deposit account and (ii) the Collateral Trustees shall
have received, in the case of a bank or Pledged Account Bank that is not
the Collateral Trustees, an Account Control Agreement authenticated by such
new bank and such Grantor, or a supplement to an existing Account Control
Agreement with such then existing Pledged Account Bank, covering such new
deposit account (and, upon the receipt by the Collateral Trustees of such
Account Control Agreement or supplement, Schedule IV hereto shall be
automatically amended to include such Other Deposit
19
Account). Each Grantor may terminate any bank as a Pledged Account Bank or
terminate any Designated Account, if it gives the Collateral Trustees at
least 10 days' prior written notice of such termination (and, upon such
termination, Schedule IV hereto shall be automatically amended to delete
such Pledged Account Bank and Other Deposit Account without any additional
formal actions or agreements). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions
of this Section 6(b) shall not apply to any deposit account that any
Grantor manages or maintains on behalf of third parties, such as deposit
accounts maintained or managed by any Grantor for a joint venture in which
third parties participate.
(c) Subject in all respects to the provisions of Section 5(h)
hereof, upon any termination by a Grantor of any Other Deposit Account by
such Grantor, or any Pledged Account Bank with respect thereto, such
Grantor will promptly (i) either (at such Grantor's election), (A) comply
with the provisions regarding the opening of new deposit accounts as set
forth in the first sentence of Section 6(b) or (B) subject to the
restrictions set forth in Section 6(f), transfer all funds and property
held in such terminated Other Deposit Account to another Other Deposit
Account listed in Schedule IV and (ii) notify all Obligors that were making
payments to such Other Deposit Account to make all future payments to
another Other Deposit Account listed in Schedule IV hereto, in each case so
that the Collateral Trustees shall have a continuously perfected security
interest in such Designated Accounts. Subject in all respects to the
provisions of Section 5(h) hereof, after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to terminate any or
all Account Collateral and Account Control Agreements upon request by the
Collateral Trustees.
(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Collateral
Trust Agreement Default, the Collateral Trustees shall have sole right to
direct the disposition of funds with respect to each of the Designated
Accounts.
(e) The Collateral Trustees may, at any time after notice to the
Borrower (provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice to
the Borrower shall not affect the validity of any action taken by the
Collateral Trustees pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6(e)), but
without consent from the Grantor, (i) transfer, or direct the transfer of,
funds from the Designated Accounts to satisfy the Grantor's obligations
under the Shared Secured Agreements if (i) (A) a payment default in respect
of principal under such Shared Secured Agreements shall have occurred and
be continuing for a period greater than or equal to three Business Days, or
(B) a payment default in respect of any amount other than principle due
under such Shared Secured Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing
for a period greater than or equal to five Business Days, or (ii) an
acceleration of the Facilities shall have occurred and be continuing.
(f) Each of the Grantors agrees that at no time shall the aggregate
amount on deposit in the Other Deposit Accounts listed in Schedule V hereto
(other than any Other Deposit Account that is subject to a Permitted Lien)
exceed $20,000,000.
20
Section 7. Maintaining Electronic Chattel Paper, Transferable Records
and Letter-of-Credit Rights and Giving Notice of Commercial Tort Claims. So long
as any Shared Secured Obligations (other than indemnification obligations that
are not yet due and payable) which are accrued and payable shall remain
unsatisfied, or any Letter of Credit (with respect to which any reimbursement
obligation related thereto constitutes a Shared Secured Obligation) shall remain
outstanding:
(a) Each Grantor will maintain all (i) electronic chattel paper (to
the extent that such Grantor has Knowledge of the existence of such
electronic chattel paper) so that the Collateral Trustees have control of
the electronic chattel paper in the manner specified in Section 9-105 of
the UCC and (ii) all transferable records (to the extent that such Grantor
has Knowledge of the existence of such transferable records) so that the
Collateral Trustees have control of the transferable records in the manner
specified in Section 16 of the UETA; and
(b) Each Grantor will immediately give notice to the Collateral
Trustees of any material commercial tort claim that may arise in the future
and will immediately execute or otherwise authenticate a supplement to this
Shared Security Agreement, and otherwise take all necessary action, to
subject such material commercial tort claim to the first priority security
interest, as applicable, created under this Shared Security Agreement
provided, however, that any commercial tort claim shall not be covered by
the provisions of this Section 7(b) to the extent, but only to the extent,
that the assignment thereof or grant of a security interest therein would
violate any effective or enforceable provision of applicable law.
Section 8. Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and
warrants as follows:
(a) As of the date hereof, such Grantor's exact legal name, which is
sufficient in accordance with Section 9-503(a) of the UCC, is correctly set
forth in Schedule I hereto. With respect to each Grantor that is not a
"registered organization" as such term is defined in Section 9-102 of the
UCC, such Grantor has its chief executive office in the state or
jurisdiction set forth in Schedule I hereto. Within the five years
preceding the execution of this Shared Security Agreement, the information
set forth in Schedule I hereto with respect to such Grantor is true and
accurate in all respects, except to the extent that failure of such
information to be true and accurate could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the Knowledge of such Grantor, such
Grantor has not previously changed its name, the location of its chief
executive office, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or
organizational identification number (if such Grantor, now or has been
organized in a jurisdiction that requires the organizational number of a
debtor to be identified on the relevant financing statement in order to
create a perfected first priority security interest) from those set forth
in Schedule I hereto except as disclosed in Schedule III hereto.
(b) All Security Collateral consisting of certificated securities
and instruments (other than, prior to the Black Thunder Determination Date,
those that constitute Black Thunder Collateral and other than those
representing or evidencing Investments permitted
21
by Section 7.02(b) of the Credit Agreement), have to the Knowledge of the
relevant Grantor been delivered to the Collateral Trustees. To the
Knowledge of the relevant Grantor, none of the Receivables or Agreement
Collateral is evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument that has
not been delivered to the Collateral Trustees, other than those which
constitute Black Thunder Collateral.
(c) Such Grantor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Shared
Collateral of such Grantor free and clear of any Lien, claim, option or
right of others, except for Permitted Liens or the security interest
created under this Shared Security Agreement. No effective financing
statement or other instrument similar in effect covering all or any part of
such Shared Collateral or listing such Grantor or any trade name of such
Grantor as debtor is on file in any recording office, except such as may
have been filed in favor of the Collateral Trustees relating to the Shared
Secured Agreements or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement.
(d) With respect to the Pledged Equity that is an uncertificated
security (other than, prior to the Black Thunder Determination Date, any
that constitutes Black Thunder Collateral), to the extent that such Grantor
has Knowledge of the existence of any such uncertificated securities, such
Grantor has caused the issuer thereof either (at such Grantor's election)
(i) to register the Collateral Trustees as the registered owners of such
security or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record with such Grantor and
the Collateral Trustees that such issuer will comply with instructions with
respect to such security originated by the Collateral Trustees without
further consent of such Grantor provided, however, that the Collateral
Trustees agree that they will not deliver any such instructions to such
issuer except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default. If such Grantor is an issuer of Pledged Equity, such Grantor
confirms that it has received notice of such security interest. With
respect to all Security Collateral consisting of certificated securities
and instruments, to the extent that the relevant Grantor has Knowledge of
the existence of such certificated securities and instruments, all such
certificated securities and instruments (other than, prior to the Black
Thunder Determination Date, any that constitutes Black Thunder Collateral)
have been delivered to the Collateral Trustees.
(e) The Initial Pledged Equity pledged by such Grantor constitutes
the percentage of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the
issuers thereof indicated on Schedule II hereto.
(f) Subject in all respects to the provisions of Section 5(h)
hereof, to the Knowledge of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor has no
deposit accounts, other than the Account Collateral listed on Schedule IV
hereto, as such Schedule IV may be amended from time to time pursuant to
Section 6(b), and to the Knowledge of the relevant Grantor, legal, binding
and enforceable Account Control Agreements are in effect for each deposit
account that constitutes Account Collateral (other than Account Collateral
consisting of deposit accounts maintained with the Collateral Trustees or
that constitutes Black Thunder Collateral), except to the extent such
Account Control Agreements are not required by Sections 5(h) or 6(a). For
the avoidance of doubt, the representations and warranties in this Section
8(f) do not apply with respect to any deposit account that any
22
Grantor manages or maintains on behalf of third parties, such as deposit
accounts maintained or managed by any Grantor for a joint venture in which
third parties participate.
(g) Subject in all respects to the provisions of Section 5(h)
hereof, to the Knowledge of the relevant Grantor, all filings and other
actions (including without limitation, (A) actions necessary to obtain
control of Shared Collateral as provided in Sections 9-104, 9-105 and 9-106
of the UCC and Section 16 of UETA and (B) actions necessary to perfect the
Collateral Trustee's security interest with respect to Shared Collateral
constituting certificated securities or instruments) necessary to perfect
the security interest in the Shared Collateral of such Grantor created
under this Shared Security Agreement have been duly made or taken and are
in full force and effect, and this Shared Security Agreement creates in
favor of the Collateral Trustees for the benefit of the Shared Secured
Parties a valid and, together with such filings and other actions,
perfected security interest in the Shared Collateral of such Grantor,
securing the payment of the Shared Secured Obligations except, in each
case, (i) as is otherwise permitted pursuant to the express provisions of
this Shared Security Agreement and (ii) for Permitted Liens.
(h) To the Knowledge of the relevant Grantor, the Grantor has no
commercial tort claims other than those listed in Schedule VI hereto.
Section 9. Further Assurances. (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time
to time, at the expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly execute and
deliver, or otherwise authenticate, all further instruments and documents, and
take all further action that (to the Knowledge of such Grantor) may be
necessary, or that the Collateral Trustees reasonably may request, in order to
perfect and protect any pledge, assignment or security interest granted or
purported to be granted by such Grantor hereunder or to enable the Collateral
Trustees to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder with
respect to any Shared Collateral of such Grantor. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will promptly with respect to Shared
Collateral of such Grantor: (i) if any such Shared Collateral shall be evidenced
by a promissory note or other instrument or chattel paper and if such Grantor
has Knowledge of the existence of any such promissory notes, instruments, or
chattel paper, deliver and pledge to the Collateral Trustees hereunder such note
or instrument or chattel paper duly indorsed and accompanied by duly executed
instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees; (ii) execute or authenticate and file
such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other
instruments or notices, as may be necessary, or as the Collateral Trustees
reasonably may request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interest
granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor hereunder; (iii) with respect
to any certificates representing Security Collateral that constitutes
certificated securities, to the extent that the relevant Grantor has Knowledge
of the existence of such certificates, deliver and pledge to the Collateral
Trustees for ratable benefit of the Representatives and the Shared Secured
Parties certificates representing Security Collateral that constitutes
certificated securities, accompanied by undated stock or bond powers executed in
blank; (iv) subject in all respects to the provisions of Section 5(h) hereof,
with respect to any Shared Collateral consisting of deposit accounts, electronic
chattel paper, investment property or transferable records, to the extent that
the relevant Grantor has Knowledge of the existence of
23
such deposit accounts, electronic chattel paper, investment property or
transferable records, take all action necessary to ensure that the Collateral
Trustees have control of Shared Collateral consisting of deposit accounts,
electronic chattel paper, investment property and transferable records as
provided in Sections 9-104, 9-105 and 9-106 of the UCC and in Section 16 of
UETA; (v) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
at the request of the Collateral Trustees, take all action to ensure that the
Collateral Trustees' security interest is noted on any certificate of title
related to any Shared Collateral evidenced by a certificate of title; and (vi)
deliver to the Collateral Trustees evidence that all other action that the
Collateral Trustees may deem reasonably necessary in order to perfect and
protect the security interest created by such Grantor under this Shared Security
Agreement has been taken.
(b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Trustees to file one
or more financing and continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating
to all or any part of the Shared Collateral of such Grantor without the
signature of such Grantor where permitted by law, which shall be filed by the
Collateral Trustees upon the receipt of an instruction letter from the Required
Representative requesting the taking of such action and attaching the form of
financing statement. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Shared Security
Agreement or any financing statement covering the Shared Collateral or any part
thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.
Each Grantor ratifies its authorization for the Collateral Trustees to have
filed such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments filed
prior to the date hereof.
(c) Each Grantor will furnish to the Collateral Trustees from time to
time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Shared
Collateral of such Grantor and such other reports in connection with such Shared
Collateral as the Collateral Trustees may reasonably request, all in reasonable
detail.
(d) Within 10 days after the Closing Date, Dynegy Global Energy, Inc.
will deliver to the Collateral Trustees certificates representing 16% of the
ordinary shares of Dynegy Europe Limited, accompanied by undated stock powers
executed in blank.
(e) Within 10 days after the Closing Date, DMT Holdings, Inc. will
deliver to the Collateral Trustees certificates representing 100% of the Common
Stock of Dynegy Strategic Investment LP, Inc., accompanied by undated stock
powers executed in blank.
Section 10. Post-Closing Changes; Bailees; Collections on Receivables
and Related Contracts. (a) No Grantor will change its name, type of
organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number
(if such Grantor is organized in a jurisdiction that requires the organizational
number of a debtor to be identified on a financing statement in order to create
a perfected first priority security interest) or location of its chief executive
office (in the case only of a Grantor that is not a "registered organization",
as such term is defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) from those set forth in
Section 8(a) of this Shared Security Agreement without first giving at least 30
days' prior written notice to the Collateral Trustees and taking all action
required by the Collateral Trustees for the purpose of perfecting or protecting
the security interest granted by this Shared Security Agreement. Except with
respect to security agreements related to Permitted Liens, no Grantor will
become bound by a security agreement authenticated by another Person (determined
as provided in Section 9-203(d) of the
24
UCC) without giving the Collateral Trustees 30 days' prior written notice
thereof and taking all action required by the Collateral Trustees to ensure that
the perfection and first priority (or second priority in the case of any Shared
Collateral that constitutes Black Thunder Collateral) nature of the Collateral
Trustees' security interest in the Shared Collateral will be maintained. If any
Grantor that is organized in a jurisdiction that requires the organizational
number of a debtor to be identified on a relevant financing statement in order
to create a perfected first priority security interest does not have an
organizational identification number and later obtains one, it will forthwith
notify the Collateral Trustees of such organizational identification number.
(b) If any Shared Collateral constituting goods of any Grantor is, to
the Knowledge of such Grantor, at any time in the possession or control of a
warehouseman, bailee or agent, or if the Collateral Trustees so requests such
Grantor will (i) notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the security
interest created hereunder, (ii) instruct such warehouseman, bailee or agent to
hold all such Shared Collateral solely for the Collateral Trustees' account
subject only to the Collateral Trustees' instructions (which shall permit such
Shared Collateral to be removed by such Grantor in the ordinary course of
business until the Collateral Trustees notifies such warehouseman, bailee or
agent that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), (iii) use
commercially reasonable efforts, to cause such warehouseman, bailee or agent to
authenticate a record acknowledging that it holds possession of such Shared
Collateral for the Collateral Trustees' benefit and shall act solely on the
instructions of the Collateral Trustees without the further consent of the
Grantor or any other Person provided, however, that the Collateral Trustees
agree that they will not deliver any such instructions to such issuer except
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and (iv)
make such authenticated record available to the Collateral Trustees.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (c), each Grantor
will continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due
such Grantor under the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts.
In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and, at the
Collateral Trustees' direction given after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, will take) such action as such Grantor or
the Collateral Trustees may deem necessary to enforce collection of the Assigned
Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts; provided, however, that the
Collateral Trustees shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default and upon written notice to such
Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the Obligors under any Receivables
and Related Contracts of the assignment of such Receivables and Related
Contracts to the Collateral Trustees and to direct such Obligors to make payment
of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the
Collateral Trustees and, upon such notification and at the expense of such
Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Receivables and Related Contracts, to
adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner
and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done, and to otherwise
exercise all rights with respect to such Receivables and Related Contracts,
including, without limitation, those set forth set forth in Section 9-607 of the
UCC. After receipt by any Grantor of the notice from the Collateral Trustees
referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence, (i) all amounts and
proceeds (including, without limitation, instruments) received by such Grantor
in respect of the Receivables and Related Contracts of such Grantor shall be
received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Trustees hereunder, shall be
segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to
the Collateral Trustees in the same form as so received (with any
25
necessary indorsement) to be applied as provided in the Collateral Trust
Agreement and (ii) such Grantor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount
or payment of any Receivable or amount due on any Related Contract, release
wholly or partly any Obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon
except in the ordinary course of such Grantor's business. For the avoidance of
doubt, none of the provisions of this Section 10(c) shall apply with respect to
any Property that is excluded from the lien and security interest granted
hereunder pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v),
(vi), (vii) or (viii) of the "notwithstanding" clause at the end of Section 2,
including, but not limited to, Excluded Shared Collateral, Excluded
Authorizations, Permitted Collateral or Excluded Equity.
Section 11. As to Intellectual Property Collateral. (a) With respect
to its material Intellectual Property Collateral, each Grantor agrees, upon the
request of the Collateral Trustees, to execute or otherwise authenticate an
agreement in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit E hereto or otherwise
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees (an
"Intellectual Property Shared Security Agreement"), for recording the security
interest granted hereunder to the Collateral Trustees in such Intellectual
Property Collateral with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S.
Copyright Office and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the
security interest hereunder in such material Intellectual Property Collateral.
(b) Each Grantor agrees that should it obtain an ownership interest in
any item of the type set forth in Section 2(g) that is not on the date hereof a
part of the Intellectual Property Collateral ("After-Acquired Intellectual
Property") (i) the provisions of this Shared Security Agreement shall
automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual
Property and, in the case of trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall
automatically become part of the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to the
terms and conditions of this Shared Security Agreement with respect thereto. At
the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, each Grantor shall give written
notice to the Collateral Trustees identifying any material After-Acquired
Intellectual Property acquired during such fiscal quarter, and upon the request
of the Collateral Trustees, such Grantor shall execute and deliver to the
Collateral Trustees with such written notice, or otherwise authenticate, an
agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto or otherwise in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustees (an "IP Shared
Security Agreement Supplement") covering such material After-Acquired
Intellectual Property which IP Shared Security Agreement Supplement shall be
recorded with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office
and any other governmental authorities necessary to perfect the security
interest hereunder in such material After-Acquired Intellectual Property.
Section 12. Voting Rights; Dividends; Etc. (a) So long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
(i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting
and other consensual rights pertaining to the Security Collateral of such
Grantor or any part thereof for any purpose; provided however, that such
Grantor will not exercise or refrain from exercising any such right if such
action could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
26
(ii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all
dividends, interest and other distributions paid in respect of the Security
Collateral of such Grantor if and to the extent that the payment thereof is
not otherwise prohibited by the terms of the Shared Secured Agreements;
provided, however, that any and all dividends, interest and other
distributions paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and
instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise
distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Security Collateral
shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Trustees to
hold as, Security Collateral and shall, if received by such Grantor, be
received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Trustees, be segregated
from the other property or funds of such Grantor and be forthwith delivered
to the Collateral Trustees as Security Collateral in the same form as so
received (with any necessary indorsement).
(iii) The Collateral Trustees will execute and deliver (or cause to be
executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies and other
instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of
enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and other rights that it is
entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (i) above and to receive the
dividends or interest payments that it is authorized to receive and retain
pursuant to paragraph (ii) above.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and notice to the Borrower (provided that the failure to give any such
notice shall not affect the validity of any of the following actions taken by
the Collateral Trustees):
(i) All rights of each Grantor (x) to exercise or refrain from
exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise
be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 12(a)(i) shall, upon notice to
such Grantor by the Collateral Trustees, cease and (y) to receive the
dividends, interest and other distributions that it would otherwise be
authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 12(a)(ii) shall
automatically cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in
the Collateral Trustees, who shall thereupon have the sole right to
exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights
and to receive and hold as Security Collateral such dividends, interest and
other distributions.
(ii) All dividends, interest and other distributions that are
received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i) of this
Section 12(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral
Trustees, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be
forthwith paid over to the Collateral Trustees as Security Collateral in
the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).
(iii) The Collateral Trustees shall be authorized to send to each
Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary as defined in and under
any Security Control Agreement a Notice of Exclusive Control as defined in
and under such Security Control Agreement.
Section 13. As to Letter-of-Credit Rights. (a) Each Grantor, by
granting a security interest in its Receivables consisting of letter-of-credit
rights to the Collateral Trustees, intends to (and hereby does) assign to the
Collateral Trustees its rights (including its contingent
27
rights) to the proceeds of all Related Contracts consisting of letters of credit
of which it is or hereafter becomes a beneficiary or assignee. Upon the request
of the Collateral Trustees after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, each Grantor will promptly use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the issuer of each letter of credit and each nominated person
(if any) with respect thereto to consent to such assignment of the proceeds
thereof in a Consent to Assignment of Letter of Credit Rights.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, each Grantor will, promptly upon request by the Collateral Trustees,
(i) notify (and such Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Trustees to
notify) the issuer and each nominated person with respect to each of the Related
Contracts consisting of letters of credit that the proceeds thereof have been
assigned to the Collateral Trustees hereunder and any payments due or to become
due in respect thereof are to be made directly to the Collateral Trustees or
their designee.
(c) With respect to any Securities Account Control Agreement,
Commodity Accounts Control Agreement, Account Control Agreement or Consent to
Assignment of Letter of Credit Rights, the Collateral Trustees agree that they
will not issue any entitlement orders or other directions, instructions or
notifications thereunder with respect to the disposition or transfer of any
Shared Collateral therein addressed or blocking any Grantor's ability to deal
with any such Shared Collateral, except upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Collateral Trust Agreement Default. The Collateral Trustees
further agree that, upon their issuance of any such entitlement orders,
directions, instructions or notifications, they will promptly provide a copy
thereof to the relevant Grantor.
Section 14. Transfers and Other Liens; Additional Shares. (a) Each
Grantor agrees that it will not (i) sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, or
grant any option with respect to, any of the Shared Collateral, other than
sales, assignments and other dispositions of Shared Collateral, and options
relating to Shared Collateral, permitted under the terms of the Credit
Agreement, or (ii) create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to
any of the Shared Collateral of such Grantor except for the pledge, assignment
and security interest created under this Shared Security Agreement and Liens
permitted under the Credit Agreement.
(b) Each Grantor agrees that it will pledge hereunder, promptly upon
its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all additional Equity
Interests or other securities that are issued by any Grantor and are Pledged
Equity.
Section 15. Collateral Trustees Appointed Attorneys-in-Fact. Each
Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Trustees such Grantor's
attorneys-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor
and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Collateral
Trustees' discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the
Collateral Trustees may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes
of this Shared Security Agreement, including, without limitation:
(a) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the
Collateral Trustees pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement,
28
(b) to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise,
receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due
under or in respect of any of the Shared Collateral,
(c) to receive, indorse and collect any drafts or other instruments,
documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) or (b) above,
and
(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any
proceedings that the Collateral Trustees may deem necessary or desirable
for the collection of any of the Shared Collateral or otherwise to enforce
compliance with the terms and conditions of any Assigned Agreement or the
rights of the Collateral Trustees with respect to any of the Shared
Collateral.
Section 16. Collateral Trustees May Perform. If any Grantor fails to
perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Trustees may, but without
any obligation to do so and without notice, themselves perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Trustees
incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor under Section
19.
Section 17. The Collateral Trustees' Duties. (a) The powers conferred
on the Collateral Trustees hereunder are solely to protect the Shared Secured
Parties' interest in the Shared Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon
them to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Shared
Collateral in their possession and the accounting for moneys actually received
by them hereunder, the Collateral Trustees shall have no duty as to any Shared
Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls,
conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any
Shared Collateral, whether or not any Shared Secured Party has or is deemed to
have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to
preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Shared
Collateral. The Collateral Trustees shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable
care in the custody and preservation of any Shared Collateral in their
possession if such Shared Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal
to that which they accord their own property.
(b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Collateral Trustees may from time to time, when the Collateral Trustees deems it
to be necessary, appoint one or more subagents (each a "Subagent") for the
Collateral Trustees hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Shared
Collateral. In the event that the Collateral Trustees so appoint any Subagent
with respect to any Shared Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such
Shared Collateral and the security interest granted in such Shared Collateral by
each Grantor hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Shared Security
Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Collateral
Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Shared Secured Parties, as security for
the Shared Secured Obligations of such Grantor, (ii) such Subagent shall
automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Trustees, with all
rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Trustees
hereunder with respect to such Shared Collateral, and (iii) the term "Collateral
Trustees," when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges,
interests and remedies of the Collateral Trustees with respect to such Shared
Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such
Subagent shall be
29
authorized to take any action with respect to any such Shared Collateral unless
and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral
Trustees.
Section 18. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing:
(a) The Collateral Trustees may with the consent of the Required
Representative and shall at the request of the Required Representative
exercise in respect of the Shared Collateral, in addition to other rights
and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the
rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether
or not the UCC applies to the affected Shared Collateral) and also may: (i)
require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its
expense and upon request of the Collateral Trustees forthwith, assemble all
or part of the Shared Collateral as directed by the Collateral Trustees and
make it available to the Collateral Trustees at a place and time to be
designated by the Collateral Trustees that is reasonably convenient to all
parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Shared
Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private
sale, at any of the Collateral Trustees' offices or elsewhere, for cash, on
credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral
Trustees may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law and by contracts with third parties, and
subject to any applicable safety requirements at any such premises, occupy
any premises owned or leased by any of the Grantors where the Shared
Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable
period in order to effectuate their rights and remedies hereunder or under
law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; and
(iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under
or in connection with the Shared Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the
Shared Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights of
such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or
performance of any provision of, the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables,
the Related Contracts and the other Shared Collateral, (B) withdraw, or
cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Account
Collateral and (C) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to
the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the
other Shared Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in
Section 9-607 of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of
sale shall be required by law, at least ten days' notice to such Grantor of
the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private
sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral
Trustees shall not be obligated to make any sale of Shared Collateral
regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Trustees may
adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the
time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice,
be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.
(b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Collateral Trustees and all
cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Collateral Trustees in
respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or
any part of the Shared Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral
Trustees, be held by the Collateral Trustees as collateral for, and/or then
or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable
30
to the Collateral Trustees pursuant to Section 19) in whole or in part by
the Collateral Trustees for the ratable benefit of the Representatives and
the Shared Secured Parties against, all or any part of the Shared Secured
Obligations, in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Trust
Agreement.
(c) All payments received by any Grantor under or in connection with
any Assigned Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Shared Collateral
shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Trustees,
shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith
paid over to the Collateral Trustees in the same form as so received (with
any necessary endorsement).
(d) The Collateral Trustees may, without notice to any Grantor
except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge,
set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Shared Secured
Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Account Collateral
or in any other deposit account.
(e) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of the
Intellectual Property Collateral of any Grantor, the goodwill symbolized by
any Trademarks subject to such sale or other disposition shall be included
therein, and such Grantor shall supply to the Collateral Trustees or their
designee such Grantor's know-how and expertise, and documents and things
relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such sale or
other disposition, and such Grantor's customer lists and other records and
documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the
manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of
such Grantor.
Section 19. Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Each Grantor agrees to
indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Collateral Trustees, each
Representative and each Shared Secured Party and each of their Affiliates and
their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an
"Indemnified Party") from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all
claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or
asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of
or in connection with or resulting from this Shared Security Agreement
(including, without limitation, enforcement of this Shared Security Agreement),
except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in
a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The provisions of this Section 19(a) shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.
(b) Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Collateral Trustees the
amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the
reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel and of any experts and agents,
that the Collateral Trustees may incur in connection with (i) the administration
of this Shared Security Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or
operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of
the Shared Collateral of such Grantor, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any
of the rights of the Collateral Trustees, the Representatives or the other
Shared Secured Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by such Grantor to perform
or observe any of the provisions hereof.
31
(c) EACH GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS SHARED SECURITY AGREEMENT AND
OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS CONTAIN PROVISIONS RELEASING EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY
FROM LIABILITY AND/OR INDEMNIFYING AND HOLDING HARMLESS EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY
FOR, AMONG OTHER THINGS, INDEMNIFIED PARTY'S OWN NEGLIGENCE. EACH GRANTOR AGREES
THAT THE RELEASE AND/OR INDEMNITY PROVISIONS CONTAINED IN THESE DOCUMENTS ARE
CAPTIONED TO CLEARLY IDENTIFY THE RELEASE AND/OR INDEMNITY PROVISIONS AND,
THEREFORE, ARE SO CONSPICUOUS THAT EACH GRANTOR HAS FAIR NOTICE OF THE EXISTENCE
AND CONTENTS OF SUCH PROVISIONS. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY DEFENSES IT
MIGHT ASSERT AGAINST EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY BASED ON THE HOLDING OF THE TEXAS
SUPREME COURT IN ETHYL CORP. v. DANIEL CONST. CO., 725 S.W.2d 705 (Tex. 1987),
PAGE PETROLEUM, INC., et al. V. DRESSER INDUSTRIES, INC., et al., 853 S.W.2d 505

Section 20. Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors; Etc. (a) No
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Shared Security Agreement, and no
consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral
Trustees and the Borrower and otherwise shall comply with the provisions of
Section 9.01 of the Collateral Trust Agreement, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given. No failure on the part of the Collateral Trustees, the
Representatives or any other Shared Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in
exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.
(b) Upon the execution and delivery, or authentication, by any Person
of a security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto
(each a "Shared Security Agreement Supplement"), (i) such Person shall be
referred to as an "Additional Grantor" and shall be and become a Grantor
hereunder, and each reference in this Shared Security Agreement and the other
Shared Secured Agreements to "Grantor" shall also mean and be a reference to
such Additional Grantor, and each reference in this Shared Security Agreement
and the other Shared Secured Agreements to "Shared Collateral" shall also mean
and be a reference to the Shared Collateral of such Additional Grantor, and (ii)
the supplemental schedules I-VI attached to each Shared Security Agreement
Supplement shall be incorporated into and become a part of and supplement
Schedules I-VI, respectively, hereto, and the Collateral Trustees may attach
such supplemental schedules to such Schedules; and each reference to such
Schedules shall mean and be a reference to such Schedules as supplemented
pursuant to each Shared Security Agreement Supplement.
Section 21. Notices, Etc. (a) Unless otherwise expressly provided
herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder or any other
Shared Collateral Document shall be in writing (including by facsimile
transmission). All such written notices
32
shall be mailed, faxed or delivered to the applicable address, facsimile number
or (subject to Section 21(c)) electronic mail address, as follows:
(i) as to any Representative, or the Collateral Trustees, addressed
to their respective addresses specified in the Collateral Trust Agreement;
(ii) as to the Borrower, addressed to it at its address specified in
the Credit Agreement;
(iii) as to any Grantor, addressed to it at its address shown on
Schedule I hereto; and
(iv) as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by
such party in a written notice to the other parties.
All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given
or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party
hereto and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on
behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four Business
Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile,
when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by
electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of Section
21(c)), when delivered. In no event shall a voicemail message be effective as a
notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.
(b) Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Shared Security
Agreement or of any Shared Security Agreement Supplement or Schedule hereto may
be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such
documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force
and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on all parties
thereto. The Collateral Trustees may also require that any such documents and
signatures be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided,
however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the
effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
(c) Electronic mail and Internet and intranet websites may be used
only to distribute routine communications and to distribute Shared Collateral
Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be used for any
other purpose.
(d) The Collateral Trustees shall be entitled to rely and act upon any
notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Grantor even if (i) such
notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not
preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the

Secured Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in
respect of the Shared Secured Agreements, and a separate action or actions may
be brought and prosecuted against each Grantor to enforce this Shared Security
Agreement, irrespective of whether any action is brought against such Grantor or
any other Loan Party or whether such Grantor or any other Loan Party is joined
in any such action or actions. All rights of the Collateral Trustees, the
Representatives and the other Shared Secured Parties and the pledge, assignment
and security interest hereunder, and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder,
shall to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, be irrevocable,
absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and to the fullest extent permitted
under applicable law, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the maximum

hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:
(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Shared Secured
Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

any departure from any Shared Secured Agreement, including, without
limitation, any increase in the Shared Secured Obligations resulting from
the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its
Subsidiaries or otherwise;
(c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Shared
Collateral or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or
waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the
Shared Secured Obligations;
34
(d) any manner of application of any Shared Collateral or any other
collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Shared Secured
Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Shared
Collateral or any other collateral for all or any of the Shared Secured
Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in
respect of the Shared Secured Agreements or any other assets of any Loan
Party or any of its Subsidiaries;
(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or
otherwise), operations, performance, assets, nature of assets, liabilities
or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to such Shared
Secured Party (each Grantor waiving any duty on the part of the Shared
Secured Parties to disclose such information);
(g) the failure of any other Person to execute this Shared Security
Agreement or any other Shared Collateral Document, guaranty or agreement or
the release or reduction of liability of any Grantor or other grantor or
surety with respect to the Shared Secured Obligations; or
(h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any
statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any
representation by any Shared Secured Party that might otherwise constitute
a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Grantor or any other
Grantor or a third party grantor of a security interest.
To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, this Shared Security
Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be,
if at any time any payment of any of the Shared Secured Obligations is rescinded
or must otherwise be returned by the Collateral Trustees, any Representative or
any Shared Secured Party or by any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization of any Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had
not been made.

constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page to this Shared Security Agreement by telecopier shall be
effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Shared
Security Agreement.
Section 26. The Shared Mortgages. In the event that any of the Shared
Collateral hereunder is also subject to a valid and enforceable Lien under the
terms of any Shared Mortgage or the First Preferred Fleet Mortgage and the terms
of such Shared Mortgage or First Preferred Fleet Mortgage are inconsistent with
the terms of this Shared Security Agreement, then with respect to such Shared
Collateral, the terms of such Shared Mortgage or such First Preferred Fleet
Mortgage shall be controlling in the case of fixtures and real estate leases,
letting and
35
licenses of, and contracts and agreements relating to the lease of, real
property, and the terms of this Shared Security Agreement shall be controlling
in the case of all other Shared Collateral.
Section 27. Collateral in the State of Louisiana. (a) As to all Shared
Collateral now or hereafter located in the State of Louisiana, or as to which
the laws of the State of Louisiana may now be or hereafter become applicable,
each Grantor hereby acknowledges the Shared Secured Obligations, whether now
existing or to arise hereafter, and confesses judgment thereon if the Shared
Secured Obligations are not paid at maturity, and does by these presents
consent, agree and stipulate that if any portion of the Shared Secured
Obligations is not promptly and fully paid when due, the Shared Secured
Obligations shall, at the option of the Collateral Trustees, become immediately
due and payable and it shall be lawful for the Collateral Trustees, without
making a demand and without notice or putting in default, the same being hereby
expressly waived, to cause all and singular the Shared Collateral to be seized
and sold by executory process, without appraisement (appraisement being hereby
expressly waived), either in its entirety or in lots or parcels, as the
Collateral Trustees may determine, to the highest bidder for cash, or on such
terms as plaintiff in such proceedings may direct.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each Grantor
hereby expressly waives: (a) the benefit of appraisement, as provided in
Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724, Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure, and all
other laws conferring the same; (b) the demand and three (3) days delay accorded
by Articles 2639 and 2721, Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure; (c) the notice of
seizure required by Articles 2293 and 2721, Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure;
(d) the three (3) days delay provided by Articles 2331 and 2722, Louisiana Code
of Civil Procedure; and (e) the benefit of the other provisions of Articles
2331, 2722 and 2723, Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure, and the benefit of any
other Articles or laws relating to rights of appraisement, notice, or delay not
specifically mentioned above; and, to the fullest extent permitted under
applicable law, each Grantor expressly agrees to the immediate seizure of the
Shared Collateral in the event of suit hereon.
(c) Each Grantor acknowledges that the Collateral Trustees shall have
all rights to appointment of a keeper in connection with any action to foreclose
the lien hereof, all in accordance with La. R.S. 9:5136 et seq. The Court before
which the proceedings are pending shall determine the keeper's fees, and the
payment of such fees shall constitute a portion of the Shared Secured
Obligations secured by the lien hereof.
(d) This Section 27 shall in no way affect or be deemed a waiver of
the provisions of Section 28 or Section 29.
Section 28. Governing Law. This Shared Security Agreement shall be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New
York.
Section 29. Submission to Jurisdiction and Waiver. (a) Each Grantor
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to
the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of
the United States sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any
thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Shared
Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a
party, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each Grantor
hereby
36
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State
court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Grantor
agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or
in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Shared Security Agreement
shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Shared Security Agreement in the courts of any
jurisdiction.
(b) Each Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Shared Security Agreement to which it is or
is to be a party in any New York State or federal court. Each Grantor hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any
such court.
(c) EACH GRANTOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS SHARED SECURITY AGREEMENT, THE LOANS OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY
BANKS IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Grantor has caused this Shared Security
Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by its officer thereunto duly

comply with Account Directions from the Grantor.

setoff until the Security Interest is terminated, except that the Account Holder
(A) will retain its prior security interest and lien on property credited to any
Account, (B) may exercise any right in respect of such security interest or
lien, and (C) may exercise any right of recoupment or setoff against any
Account, in the case
3
of clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, to secure or to satisfy, and only to secure
or to satisfy, payment (x) for such property, (y) for its customary fees and
expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of such Account, and (z) if
such Account is a deposit account, for the face amount of any items that have
been credited to such Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of

any Person relating to Account Directions or other directions with respect to

parties referred to in this Agreement, the Account Holder will promptly notify
the Secured Party and the Grantor of such claim or interest.
SECTION 6. The Account Holder's Responsibility. (a) Except for
permitting a withdrawal, delivery, or payment in violation of Section 3, the
Account Holder will not be liable to the Secured Party for complying with
Account Directions or other directions concerning any Account from the Grantor
that are received by the Account Holder before the Account Holder receives and
has a reasonable opportunity to act on a Notice of Exclusive Control.
(b) The Account Holder will not be liable to the Grantor or the
Secured Party for complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or with an
Account Direction or other direction concerning any Account originated by the
Secured Party, even if the Grantor notifies the Account Holder that the Secured
Party is not legally entitled to issue the Notice of Exclusive Control or
Account Direction or such other direction unless the Account Holder takes the
action after it is served with an injunction, restraining order, or other legal
process enjoining it from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction,
and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or
other legal process.
(c) This Agreement does not create any obligation of the Account
Holder except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and, in the case
of any Account that is a securities account, in Part 5 of Article 8 of the N.Y.
Uniform Commercial Code and, in the case of any Account that is a deposit
account, in Article 4 of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code. In particular, the
Account Holder need not investigate whether the Secured Party is entitled under
the Secured Party's agreements with the Grantor to give an Account Direction or
other direction concerning any Account or a Notice of Exclusive Control. The
Account Holder may rely on notices and communications it believes given by the
appropriate party.

its officers, directors, employees and agents against claims, liabilities and
expenses arising out of this Agreement (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements), except to the extent the claims,

4
negligence or willful misconduct as found by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final, non-appealable judgment.

this Agreement by notice to the Account Holder and the Grantor. If the Secured
Party notifies the Account Holder that the Security Interest has terminated,
this Agreement will immediately terminate.

prior notice to the Secured Party and the Grantor, provided that before such
termination the Account Holder and the Grantor shall make arrangements to
transfer the property (including, without limitation, all funds and financial
assets) credited to each Account to another Account Holder that shall have
executed, together with the Grantor, a control agreement in favor of the Secured
Party in respect of such property in substantially the form of this Agreement or
otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party.
(c) Sections 6 and 7 will survive termination of this Agreement.

governed by the law of the State of New York. The Account Holder and the Grantor
may not change the law governing any Account without the Secured Party's express
prior written agreement.

and supersedes any prior agreements, and contemporaneous oral agreements, of the
parties concerning its subject matter.

this Agreement will be binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party
to be charged.

counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and all of which taken together shall
5
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
