(p) Purchase Money Security
Interests . To the extent any Grantor uses the proceeds of any
of the Secured Obligations to purchase Collateral, such

the Secured Obligations used to purchase a particular item of
Collateral shall be paid in the chronological order such Grantor
purchased the Collateral.
(q) Controlled Foreign
Corporations . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
in no event shall the Collateral include, and no Grantor shall be

voting capital stock or other ownership interests of a Controlled
Foreign Corporation (as defined below) in excess of 66% of the
voting power of all classes of capital stock or other ownership
interests of such Controlled Foreign Corporation entitled to vote;
provided that immediately upon the amendment of the Code to
allow the pledge of a greater percentage of the voting power of
capital stock or other ownership interests in a Controlled Foreign
Corporation without adverse tax consequences, the Collateral shall
include, and such Grantor shall be deemed to have granted a
security interest in, such greater percentage of capital stock or
other ownership interests of each Controlled Foreign Corporation.

in no event shall the Collateral include, and no Grantor shall be

under the terms of such lease, license, contract, or agreement, or
applicable law with respect thereto, the valid grant of a security
interest or lien therein or in such assets to the Administrative

is not waived or the consent of the other party to such
lease,
11.
license, contract, or agreement has not been or
is not otherwise obtained or under applicable law such prohibition
cannot be waived or (ii) would constitute or result in the
abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of any right, title
or interest of any Grantor therein; provided, that the foregoing
exclusion shall in no way be (A) construed to apply if any
such prohibition would be rendered ineffective under the UCC or
other applicable law (including any Debtor Relief Laws) or
principles of equity, (B) construed so as to limit, impair or
otherwise affect the Administrative Agent’s unconditional
continuing security interests in and liens upon any rights or
interests of such Grantor in or to the proceeds thereof, including
monies due or to become due under any such lease, license,
contract, or agreement (including any Accounts), in each case, that
are not subject to such prohibitions, or (C) construed to
apply at such time as the condition causing such prohibition shall
be remedied and, to the extent severable, “Collateral”
shall include any portion of such lease, license, contract,
agreement or assets subject thereto that does not result in such
prohibition; and provided, further, that, upon the written request
of the Administrative Agent, each such Grantor shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consents with respect to
leases, licenses, contracts and agreements that are material to
such Grantor’s business pursuant to commercially reasonable
terms for the grant of a security interest or lien over such
leases, licenses, contracts, or agreements.
