(f) No consent, approval,
authorization, or other order or other action by, and no notice to
or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is
required (i) for the grant of a Security Interest by Grantor
in and to the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement or for the
execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement by Grantor,
or (ii) for the exercise by Agent of the voting or other
rights provided for in this Agreement with respect to the
Investment Related Property or the remedies in respect of the
Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, except as may be required in
connection with such disposition of Investment Related Property by
laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally and
except for approvals required under applicable mandatory Gaming
Laws. No Intellectual Property License material to the conduct of
Grantor’s business to which Grantor is a party requires any
consent for Grantor to grant the security interest granted
hereunder, to the extent permitted under Section 9-408 of the
Code, in Grantor’s right, title or interest in or to any
Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks or material Intellectual Property
Licenses.

to the Required Library obligations set forth in the Purchase
Documents, Grantor has made in accordance with the procedures and
regulations of the United States Copyright Office and the United
States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, all payments,
filings and recordations to protect and maintain its interest in
the Intellectual Property identified on Schedule 1 in a manner
sufficient to claim in the public record Grantor’s ownership
thereof, including (i) making all necessary registration,
maintenance, and renewal fee payments; and (ii) filing all
necessary documents, including all applications for registration of
Copyrights comprising the Required Library, Patents and
Trademarks.
(h) Grantor has and uses
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce a policy requiring its
employees, consultants and contractors to execute appropriate
assignment agreements, pursuant to which each such employee,
consultant or contractor has assigned to Grantor all of such
individual’s rights (including with respect to Intellectual
Property) in and to all ideas, inventions, processes, works of
authorship and other work products that relate to Grantor’s
business and that were conceived, created, authored or developed
during the term of such employee’s, consultant’s or
contractor’s employment or engagement by Grantor. No past or
present employee or contractor of Grantor has any ownership
interest, license, permission or other right in or to any
Intellectual Property that is necessary to, or economically
desirable in connection with, the conduct of Grantor’s
business, except that solely to the extent necessary for the
conduct of their work for or on behalf of Grantor,
(i) employees of Grantor may have permission to use
Intellectual Property Rights and (ii) contractors may have
permission to use or license rights in the Intellectual
Property.
(i) Except as set forth in Schedule
1, no claim has been made in writing and is continuing or, to
Grantor’s knowledge, threatened that the use by Grantor of
any Intellectual Property that is necessary to, or economically
desirable in connection with, the conduct of its business does or
may violate the Intellectual Property rights of any Person. To
Grantor’s knowledge, there is currently no infringement or
unauthorized use of any item of Intellectual Property contained on
Schedule 1 .
(j) Schedule 6 attached
hereto sets forth all motor vehicles owned by Grantor as of the
Closing Date, by model, model year and vehicle identification
number.

reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals)
shall be for the sole account of Issuer and shall be chargeable to
the Note Account;

written notice thereof or any Patent or Trademark with the United

revenue generated for (A) the preceding calendar quarter, and
(B) the preceding twelve month period ending on the last day
of such calendar quarter, in each case, by and/or arising from each
such Copyright. No more than 5 days following each such date of

all other actions necessary to register or record a transfer of
ownership, as applicable, to Grantor on an expedited basis (if
expedited processing is available in accordance with the applicable
regulations and procedures of the United States Copyright Office
and any similar office of any other United States jurisdiction in
which Copyrights are used) each such Copyright comprising the
Required Library which on the applicable date of delivery is not
already the subject of a valid registration or an application
therefor diligently prosecuted with the United States Copyright
Office (or any similar office of any other United States
jurisdiction in which Copyrights are used) identifying Grantor as
the sole claimant thereof in a manner sufficient to claim in the
public record (or as a co-claimant thereof, if such is the case)
Grantor’s

ownership thereof, unless filing such a
Copyright would waive any trade secret rights and (B) cause to
be prepared, executed, and delivered to Agent, with sufficient time
to permit Agent to record no later than 5 days following the date
of registration of or recordation of transfer of ownership, as
applicable, to the Grantor of such Copyrights, (I) a Copyright
