the extent permitted by Applicable Law, request that such pledge be recorded on

such Pledged Securities substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 annexed hereto,
execute any customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or appropriate
to complete the pledge and give the Collateral Agent the right to transfer such
Pledged Securities under the terms hereof.
SECTION 3.3 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest. Each
Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, (i) such

individually or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000 payable under or
in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral is evidenced by any
Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper other than such Instruments and
Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 12 of the Perfection
Certificate and (ii) each Instrument and each item of Tangible Chattel
Paper has been properly endorsed, assigned and delivered to the

Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible
Chattel Paper, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument or Tangible Chattel
Paper shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the
Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer
-15-
or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from
time to time specify; provided, however, that so long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent
shall return such Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper to such Pledgor
from time to time, to the extent necessary for collection in the
ordinary course of such Pledgor's business.
(b) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If
any amount individually or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000
payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall
be evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any "transferable
record," as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section
16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any
relevant jurisdiction, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel
Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent
thereof and shall take such action as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably request to vest in the Collateral Agent control under UCC
Section 9-105 of such Electronic Chattel Paper or control under Section
201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce
Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such
transferable record. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Pledgor that
the Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory
to the Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result
in the Collateral Agent's loss of control, for the Pledgor to make
alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record
permitted under UCC Section 9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201 of
the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or
Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in
control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any
action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or
transferable record.
(c) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is at any time a
beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor of
such Pledgor in an amount individually or in the aggregate in excess of
$250,000, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent
thereof and such Pledgor shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) arrange for
the issuer and any confirmer of such Letter of Credit to consent to an
assignment as collateral to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any
drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral
Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit,
with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of
any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in
the Indentures.
(d) Special Provisions regarding the Collateral Account and
all Collateral Account Funds. Each Pledgor hereby represents and
warrants that at all times the Collateral Account and all Collateral
Account Funds shall be maintained in one or more accounts under which
Collateral Agent is the depositary, and Collateral Agent will be deemed
to have "control" (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) of such
Collateral Account and all Collateral Account Funds through its direct
dominion and control. If at any time the Collateral Account or any
Collateral Account Funds are not maintained with Collateral Agent, each
Pledgor shall enter into an agreement in form and substance acceptable
to Collateral Agent (each, a "Control Agreement") sufficient to
establish Collateral Agent's control over and perfection of its security
interest in any and all such
-16-
Collateral Account Funds. Each Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees
that notwithstanding any provisions hereof or any other circumstance to
the contrary, Collateral Agent shall at all times (A) have "control" (as
defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) of the Collateral Account and all
Collateral Account Funds, as may be confirmed in one or more Control
Agreements, and (B) be authorized in writing to direct the institution
maintaining the Collateral Account or any Collateral Account Funds to
comply without further consent of any Pledgor or any person acting or
purporting to act for any Pledgor being required, with all instructions
originated by Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent hereby agrees that it
shall not issue any such instructions to any institution maintaining the
Collateral Account or any Collateral Account Funds except in connection
with Collateral Agent's exercise of remedies upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default.
SECTION 3.5 Joinder of Additional Guarantors. The Pledgors shall
cause each Subsidiary of the Issuers which, from time to time, after the date

benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Indentures, to
execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a joinder agreement substantially in
the form of Exhibit 3 annexed hereto within a commercially reasonable period of
time (not to exceed 30 days) of the date on which it was acquired or created
and, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a
"Guarantor" and a "Pledgor" for all purposes hereunder. The execution and
delivery of such joinder agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor
hereunder. Additionally, each Pledgor (including any additional Pledgor) hereby
agrees to promptly update, or in the case of any new Pledgor, deliver, the
Perfection Certificate at any time upon the request of the Collateral Agent. The
rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party
to this Agreement.
SECTION 3.6 Use and Pledge of Pledged Collateral. Unless an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent
shall from time to time execute and deliver, upon written request of any Pledgor
and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, any and all instruments,
certificates or other documents, in a form reasonably requested by such Pledgor,
necessary or appropriate in the reasonable judgment of such Pledgor to enable
such Pledgor to continue to exploit, license, use, enjoy and protect the Pledged
Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof and of the Indentures. The
Pledgors and the Collateral Agent acknowledge that this Agreement is intended to
grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties security
interests in and Liens upon the Pledged Collateral and shall not constitute or
create a present assignment of any of the Pledged Collateral.

organization or corporate structure, (iii) its Federal Taxpayer Identification
Number or organizational identification number or (iv) its jurisdiction of
organization (in each case, including, without limitation, by merging with or

to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be
amended as a result of any of the changes described in Section 4.5(a). If any
Pledgor fails to provide information to the Collateral Agent about such changes
on a timely basis, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to
any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such
Pledgor's property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Collateral
Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent
shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform
the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing
that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search
for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any
Pledgor.

practicable make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and other
improvements which are necessary or appropriate in the conduct of such Pledgor's
business, except where the failure to make such repairs, replacements or
improvements would not have a Collateral Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.8 Corporate Names; Prior Transactions. Such Pledgor
has not, during the past five years, been known by or used any other corporate
or fictitious name or been a party to any merger or consolidation, or acquired
all or substantially all of the assets of any Person, or acquired any of its
property or assets out of the ordinary course of business, except as set forth
in Schedules 1(b), 1(c) and 4 of the Perfection Certificate.
SECTION 4.9 Due Authorization and Issuance. All of the Initial
Pledged Shares have been, and to the extent any Pledged Shares are hereafter
issued, such shares will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued
and fully paid and non-assessable. All of the Initial Pledged Interests have
been fully paid for, and there is no amount or other obligation owing by any
Pledgor to any issuer of the Initial Pledged Interests in exchange for or in
connection with the issuance of the Initial Pledged Interests or as a result
solely of any Pledgor's status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the
Initial Pledged Interests.

Securities pursuant to this Agreement does not violate Regulation T, U or X of
the Federal Reserve Board.
SECTION 4.11 No Options, Warrants, etc. There are no options,

Pledged Securities or obligating such Pledgor to grant, extend or enter into any
such option, warrant, call, right, commitment or agreement. There are no voting

equity interests of any issuer of the Pledged Securities (other than with

Buffington Harbor Parking Associates, LLC).
SECTION 4.12 No Claims. The use by such Pledgor of the Pledged
Collateral and all such rights with respect to the foregoing do not infringe on
the rights of any Person other than such infringement which would not,
individually or in the aggregate, result in a Collateral Material Adverse
Effect. No claim has been made and remains outstanding that such Pledgor's use
of any Pledged Collateral does or may violate the rights of any third Person
that would individually, or in the aggregate, have a Collateral Material Adverse
Effect.
SECTION 4.13 No Conflicts, Consents, etc. Neither the execution
and delivery hereof by each Pledgor nor the consummation of the transactions
herein contemplated nor the fulfillment of the terms hereof (i) violates any
Operative Agreement of such Pledgor or any issuer of Pledged Securities, (ii)
violates the terms of any agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
equipment lease, instrument or other document to which such Pledgor is a party,

Material Adverse Effect, (iii) conflicts with any Requirement of Law applicable
to any such Pledgor or its property, which conflict would, individually or in
the aggregate, have a Collateral Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) results in or
requires the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than the Lien

(C) for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the remedies in respect of the
Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of
Section 11.17 hereof, in the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise
any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth
in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or
consents of any Governmental Authority or any other Person therefor, then, upon
the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor agrees to use its
best efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as
practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such
remedies, rights and powers.

the Indenture.

an Event of Default such Proceeds shall be paid to the Collateral Agent to
satisfy any deficiency remaining after such foreclosure. The Collateral Agent
shall retain its interest in the Insurance Policies required to be maintained
pursuant to this Agreement during any redemption period.

operation of the Pledged Collateral or Mortgaged Property taken as a whole and
(iii) no proceedings have been instituted or are pending against such Pledgor
or, to such Pledgor's knowledge, threatened, and no claim against such Pledgor

respect to such Intellectual Property Collateral, in each case except as shall
be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (iv) upon such
Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in
writing of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and
adversely affect the value or utility of the Intellectual Property Collateral or
any portion thereof material to the use and operation of the Pledged Collateral
or Mortgaged Property (taken as a whole), the ability of such Pledgor or the
Collateral Agent to dispose of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any

not license the Intellectual Property Collateral other than licenses entered
into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of business, or

and adversely affects the right to receive payments thereunder, or in any manner
that would materially impair the value of the Intellectual Property Collateral
or the Lien on and security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral
intended to be granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, without the consent of the Collateral Agent and (vi) until the
Collateral Agent exercises its rights to make collection, diligently keep
adequate records respecting the Intellectual Property Collateral.
SECTION 6.5 After-Acquired Property. If any Pledgor shall, at
any time before the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (other than
contingent indemnification obligations which, pursuant to the provisions of the
Indenture or the Collateral Documents, survive the termination thereof),
-25-
(i) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (ii)
become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property
Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division,
continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral,
or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, the provisions
hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in clause
(i) or (ii) of this Section 6.5 with respect to such Pledgor shall automatically
constitute Intellectual Property Collateral if such would have constituted
Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject
to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further

of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions
to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution,
diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual
Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be
obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property
Collateral and/or bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or
the Secured Parties to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any

execute any and all documents requested by the Collateral Agent in aid of such
enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the
Collateral Agent, as the case may be, for all costs and expenses incurred by the
Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights under this Section 6.7 in
accordance with Section 11.3 hereof. In the event that the Collateral Agent
shall elect not to bring suit to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral,
each Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, to take
all commercially reasonable actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or
other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition,
dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual
Property Collateral by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain
any suit, proceeding or other action against any Person so infringing necessary
to prevent such infringement.

exchange, broker's board or at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or
elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price
or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem
commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee,
assignee or recipient of any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any
such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making
settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of
the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use

such Person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or
recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or
licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any
Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has

Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by
announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may,
without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the
fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold,
assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price
which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral
Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged
Collateral to more than one offeree.
SECTION 9.2 Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees
that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Pledged Collateral
shall be required by law, 10 days' prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and
place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other
intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable
notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it
has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing
or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.
SECTION 9.3 Waiver of Notice and Claims. Each Pledgor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, notice or judicial
hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent's taking possession or the
Collateral Agent's disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral, including,
without limitation, any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment
remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have
under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by Applicable Law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of
possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale
or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent's
rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay,
extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any Applicable Law. The
Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made
pursuant to this Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other
realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right,
title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable
Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in
equity against such Pledgor and against any and all Persons claiming or
attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon,
or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.
SECTION 9.4 Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral. (i) Each
Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law,
rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Collateral Agent
may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged
Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such
Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at
prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable
through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such
circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been
made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by
Applicable Law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in
public sales.
(ii) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent
may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities
Collateral, to limit purchasers to Persons who will agree, among other things,
to acquire such Securities Collateral for their own account, for investment and
not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each
-29-
Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms
less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public
sale without such restrictions (including, without limitation, a public offering
made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and,
notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be
deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the
Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no
obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time
necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale
requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state
securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the
reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral
Agent, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any
Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or
any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole
cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept
effective) and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so
requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such
Securities Collateral including, without limitation, registration under the
Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate
qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and
appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental
Authority. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each
such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof,
shall furnish to the Collateral Agent such number of prospectuses, offering
circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time
to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the
Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral Agent and all others
participating in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all
claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any
related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or
alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement,
notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(iv) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right
to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, the
applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all
such information as the Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the
number of securities included in the Securities Collateral which may be sold by
the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from
time to time in effect.
-30-
SECTION 9.5 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (i) No failure on
the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect
to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right,
power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce
or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
(ii) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this
Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall
have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors,
the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their
respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged
Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the
other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been
instituted.
SECTION 9.6 Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual
Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon
the written demand of Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver
to Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Patents,
Trademarks and/or Copyrights and such other documents as are necessary or
appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. Within five Business
Days of written notice thereafter from Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall make
available to Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor's power and
authority, such personnel in such Pledgor's employ on the date of the Event of
Default as Collateral Agent may reasonably designate to permit such Pledgor to
continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products
and services sold by such Pledgor under the registered Patents, Trademarks
and/or Copyrights, and such persons shall be available to perform their prior
functions on Collateral Agent's behalf.
ARTICLE X
APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS
The Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any
sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the
Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its
remedies as a secured creditor as provided in Article IX hereof shall be
applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent in the
manner set forth in the Priority Intercreditor Agreement.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 11.1 Concerning Collateral Agent. (i) The Collateral
Agent has been
-31-
appointed as such pursuant to the Priority Intercreditor Agreement. The actions
of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Priority
Intercreditor Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to
make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any
rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including, without
limitation, the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in
accordance with this Agreement and the Priority Intercreditor Agreement. The
Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith
and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may resign
and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the
Priority Intercreditor Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the
Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and
the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and
obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent's
resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the
Collateral Agent.
(ii) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its
possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially
equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity,
accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it
being understood that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured
Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with
respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters
relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or
(ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any Person with
respect to any Pledged Collateral.
(iii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone
message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent
or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to
this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.
SECTION 11.2 Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent
Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants
contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, such Pledgor's
covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies
hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay
or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if
any warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the
Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to
be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose;
provided, however, that Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire
into the validity of any tax, lien, imposition or other obligation which such
Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such
Pledgor does not contest in accordance in accordance with the provision of
Section 4.16 hereof. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent
shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.3
hereof. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by
Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent
any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any
breach of warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby
appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the
place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise,
from time to time in the
-32-
Collateral Agent's discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument
consistent with the terms of the Indenture and the other Collateral Documents
which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes hereof. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled
with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof.
Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause
to be done by virtue hereof.
SECTION 11.3 Expenses. Each Pledgor will upon demand pay to the
Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable costs and expenses,
including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and the reasonable
fees and expenses of any experts and agents which the Collateral Agent may incur
in connection with (i) any action, suit or other proceeding affecting the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof commenced, in which action, suit or
proceeding the Collateral Agent is made a party or participates or in which the
right to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof is threatened, or in
which it becomes necessary in the judgment of the Collateral Agent to defend or
uphold the Lien hereof (including, without limitation, any action, suit or
proceeding to establish or uphold the compliance of the Pledged Collateral with
any requirements of any Governmental Authority or law), (ii) the collection of
the Secured Obligations, (iii) the enforcement and administration hereof, (iv)
the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral, (v) the exercise or enforcement
of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party hereunder or
(vi) the failure by any Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions
hereof. All amounts expended by the Collateral Agent and payable by any Pledgor
under this Section 11.3 shall be due upon demand therefor (together with
interest thereon accruing at the highest rate then in effect under the Indenture
during the period from and including the date on which such funds were so
expended to the date of repayment) and shall be part of the Secured Obligations.
Each Pledgor's obligations under this Section 11.3 shall survive the termination
hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor's other obligations under this
Agreement, the Indenture and the other Collateral Documents.
SECTION 11.4 Indemnity.
(i) Indemnity. Each Pledgor agrees to indemnify, pay and
hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Trustees (collectively, the
"Indemnitees") from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs (including,
without limitation, settlement costs), expenses or disbursements of any kind or
nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees) which may be imposed on, incurred
by, or asserted against that Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising
out of this Agreement, any other Collateral Document or any other document
evidencing the Secured Obligations (including, without limitation, any
misrepresentation by any Pledgor in this Agreement, any other Collateral
Document or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations) (the
"Indemnified Liabilities"); provided, however, that no Pledgor shall have any
obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to
the extent it has been determined by a final decision (after all appeals and the
expiration of time to appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction that such
Indemnified Liabilities arose from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
that Indemnitee. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold
harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is
violative of any law or public policy, each Pledgor shall contribute the maximum
portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under Applicable Law to the
payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the
Indemnitees or any of them.
-33-
(ii) Survival. The obligations of the Pledgors contained in
this Section 10.4 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of the
Pledgors' other obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture and under the
other Collateral Documents.
(iii) Reimbursement. Any amounts paid by any Indemnitee as to
which such Indemnitee has the right to reimbursement shall constitute Secured
Obligations secured by the Pledged Collateral.
SECTION 11.5 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral
and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and
assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral
Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No
other Persons (including, without limitation, any other creditor of any Pledgor)
shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), subject to the
provisions of any applicable Gaming Laws and the prior approval of any
applicable Gaming Authority, any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer
any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other Person, and
such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect
thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to
the provisions of the Indenture.
SECTION 11.6 Termination; Release. The Pledged Collateral shall
be released from the Lien of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of
the Priority Intercreditor Agreement. Upon termination hereof or any release of
Pledged Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Priority
Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the request and at the
sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor,
against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent,
such of the Pledged Collateral to be released (in the case of a release) as may
be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or
otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other
Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3
termination statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the
release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be.
SECTION 11.7 Modification in Writing. No amendment,
modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof,
nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless
the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and unless
in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or
supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and
any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision
hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by
this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no
notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
SECTION 11.8 Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the
Indenture, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be
given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the
Indenture, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Issuers set
forth in the Indenture and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the
address set forth in
-34-
the Indenture, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by
such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with
the terms of this Section 11.8.
SECTION 11.9 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.
SECTION 11.10 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS;
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PLEDGOR WITH
RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND APPELLATE COURTS OF ANY THEREOF, AND
BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY HEREOF, EACH PLEDGOR ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN
CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NONEXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY
JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PLEDGOR AGREES
THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY
THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF
MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE ISSUER AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE
OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE TRUSTEE SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED PURSUANT
THERETO. IF ANY AGENT APPOINTED BY ANY PLEDGOR REFUSES TO ACCEPT SERVICE, SUCH
PLEDGOR HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE UPON IT BY MAIL SHALL CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT
NOTICE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER
MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE TRUSTEE TO BRING
PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY PLEDGOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE
PLEDGORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
SECTION 11.11 Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof
which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction.
SECTION 11.12 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any
amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
SECTION 11.13 Business Days. In the event any time period or any
date provided in this Agreement ends or falls on a day other than a Business
Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed
to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made
on such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such other
day.
-35-
SECTION 11.14 No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. Such
Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if
any, or interest payable under the Indentures or the Notes, and such Pledgor
shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become
payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax
on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof.
SECTION 11.15 No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the
Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or
services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right,
power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or
services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as
would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in respect
thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or
services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to
the Lien hereof.
SECTION 11.16 Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each
Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:
(i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement,
readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Pledgor;
(ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the
Indentures, the Notes or any other Collateral Document, or any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any
other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the
Indentures, the Notes or any other Collateral Document, or any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(iv) any pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to
any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured
Obligations;
(v) any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right,
remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Indentures,
the Notes or any other Collateral Document except as specifically set
forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.7
hereof; or
(vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute
a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor.
SECTION 11.17 Gaming Laws. (i) Nothing in this Agreement, the
Indentures or the other Collateral Documents shall require the Collateral Agent
to take any action contrary to any Gaming Laws or the rules, regulations or
determinations promulgated by any Gaming Authority.
(ii) Each provision of this Agreement is subject to and shall
be enforced in compliance with the provisions of the New Jersey Casino Control
Act.
-36-
(iii) The Collateral Agent acknowledges, understands and
agrees that the Indiana Riverboat Gambling Act rules and regulations of the
Indiana Gaming Commission may impose certain licensing or transaction approval
requirements prior to the exercise of the rights and remedies granted to it
under this Agreement, the Indentures or the other Collateral Documents with
respect to the Pledged Collateral. In particular, the Collateral Agent
acknowledges, understands and agrees that it may not take a direct possessory
interest in any gaming equipment, but may exercise rights only through an agent
appropriately licensed or approved by the Gaming Authorities.
(iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indentures,
the Priority Intercreditor Agreement or any other Collateral Documents to the
contrary, nothing in this Agreement, the Indentures, the Priority Intercreditor
Agreement or any other Collateral Document shall (i) effect any transfer of any
ownership interest (within the meaning of 68 Indiana Administrative Code 5) in
any Pledgor or (ii) effect any transfer, sale, purchase, lease or hypothecation
of, or any borrowing or loaning of money against, or any establishment of any
voting trust agreement or other similar agreement with respect to (all within
the meaning of Indiana Code 4-33-4-21), any certificate of suitability or any
Riverboat Gaming License heretofore or hereafter issued to any Person, including
Trump Indiana, Inc., under any of the Gaming Laws.
(v) The Collateral Agent acknowledges, understands and
agrees that the Indiana Gaming Commission reserves the right to disapprove and
subsequently cancel any contract that it determines does not comply with the
Indiana Riverboat Gambling Act, Title 68IAC and the regulations promulgated
thereunder.
(vi) Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied herein to
the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, the Indentures, the Priority
Intercreditor Agreement or the other Collateral Documents is intended to grant
to the Collateral Agent any authority to manage a casino or casino operation.
(vii) The Collateral Agent acknowledges the terms and
conditions of that certain Subordination Agreement dated as of October 12, 2001
by THCR Management Holdings, LLC in favor of the lenders under that certain Loan
Agreement dated as of October 17, 2001 by and among Twenty-Nine Palms
