Until the Discharge Date, the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall have “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106(d)(2) or Section 9-104(a) (as applicable) of the UCC) of the Accounts and the Company’s “security entitlements” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) with respect to the Financial Assets credited to the Account. All property delivered to the Depositary Agent pursuant to this Agreement will be promptly credited to the applicable Account.

The Depositary Agent shall not change the name or account number of any Account without the prior written consent of the Collateral Trustee and at least five Business Days’ prior notice to the Company, and shall not change the entitlement holder.

To the extent that the Accounts are not considered “securities accounts” (within the meaning of Section 8-501(a) of the UCC), the Accounts shall be deemed to be and maintained as “deposit accounts” (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(29) of the UCC) to the extent a security interest can be granted and perfected under the UCC in the Accounts as deposit accounts, which the Company shall maintain with the Depositary Agent acting not as a securities intermediary but as a “bank” (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(8) of the UCC).

The Company, the Collateral Trustee and the Depositary Agent agree that, for purposes of the UCC, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any other agreement relating to the establishment and operation of the Accounts, the jurisdiction of the Depositary Agent (in its capacity as the securities intermediary and bank) is the State of New York and the laws of the State of New York govern the establishment and operation of the Accounts.

Section 2.6 Degree of Care; Liens. The Depositary Agent shall exercise the same degree of care in administering the funds held in the Accounts and the investments purchased with such funds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as Depositary Agent exercises in the ordinary course of its day-to-day business in administering other funds and investments for its own account and as required by Government Rules. The Depositary Agent is not party to and shall not execute and deliver, or otherwise become bound by, any agreement under which the Depositary Agent agrees with any Person other than the Collateral Trustee to comply with entitlement orders or instructions originated by such Person relating to any of the Accounts or the security entitlements that are the subject of this Agreement. The Depositary Agent shall not grant any Lien on any Financial Asset, other than any Lien granted to the Collateral Trustee under the Secured Debt Documents.

Section 2.7 Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the Depositary Agent has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a Lien in any Account or in any Account Collateral, the Depositary Agent agrees that such Lien shall be subordinate to the Lien of the Collateral Trustee. The financial assets standing to the credit of the Accounts and any other Account Collateral will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Collateral Trustee (except to the extent of fees, charges and expenses incurred in connection with the purchase or sale of Permitted Investments, fees, expenses and indemnities payable to the Depositary hereunder, and returned items and chargebacks either for uncollected checks or other items of payment and transfers previously credited to one or more of the Accounts, and the Company and the Collateral Trustee hereby authorize the Depositary Agent to debit the Account for such amounts).

Section 2.8 No Other Agreements. None of the Depositary Agent, the Collateral Trustee and the Company have entered or will enter into any agreement with respect to any Account or in any Account Collateral, other than this Agreement and the other Secured Debt Documents.

Section 2.10 Rights and Powers of the Collateral Trustee.

If no successor Depositary Agent shall have been appointed by the Company and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Depositary Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the removal of the retiring Depositary Agent or if an Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing, then the retiring Depositary Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Depositary Agent, which shall be a bank or trust company which has an office in New York, New York and that has a combined capital surplus of at least $500,000,000 or at least $100,000,000 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of a bank or trust company that has a combined capital surplus of at least $500,000,000 and is reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee; provided, that if the Collateral Trustee does not confirm such acceptance or reject such appointee in writing within 30 days following selection of such successor by the retiring Depositary Agent, then it shall be deemed to have given acceptance thereof and such successor shall be deemed appointed as the Depositary Agent hereunder.

After the retiring Depositary Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Depositary Agent, the provisions of this Article IV and of Article V shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Depositary Agent. Any corporation into which the Depositary Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Depositary Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Depositary Agent shall be the successor of the Depositary Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
