of Default, to execute, and in addition hereby confirms that
pursuant to §10 hereof such Assignor has constituted and
appointed the Collateral Agent as such Assignor’s true and
lawful attorney-in-fact to execute on such Assignor’s behalf,
an assignment of federally registered trademarks and other
registered trademarks in substantially the form of
Exhibit 1 hereto (the “ Assignment of
Marks ”). Each Assignor hereby authorizes the Collateral
Agent to complete as assignee and record with the PTO and any other
relevant authority the Assignment of Marks upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default and the proper

to, and not by way of limitation of, the grant, pledge and mortgage
of the Pledged Trademarks provided in §2.1, and subject to the

the Secured Parties, such Assignor’s entire right, title and
interest in and to the Pledged Trademarks; provided that
such grant, assignment, transfer and conveyance shall be and become
of force and effect only (i) upon or after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) either
(A) upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent at any
time during such continuance or (B) immediately and
automatically (without notice or action of any kind by the

of the Notes is automatic under the Indenture or upon the sale or
other disposition of or foreclosure upon the Collateral pursuant to
the Security Documents, and applicable law (including the transfer
or other disposition of the Collateral by any Assignor to the
Collateral Agent or its nominee in lieu of foreclosure).
4
2.3. Supplemental to Security Agreement .
Pursuant to the Security Agreement, each Assignor has granted to
the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a
continuing security interest in and lien on such Assignor’s
right, title and interest to the Collateral (including the Pledged
Trademarks). The Security Agreement, and all rights and interests
of the Collateral Agent in and to the Collateral (including the
Pledged Trademarks) thereunder, are hereby ratified and confirmed
in all respects. In no event shall this Trademark Agreement, the
grant, assignment, transfer and conveyance of the Pledged
Trademarks hereunder, or the recordation of this Trademark
Agreement (or any document hereunder) with the PTO or any other
relevant authority, adversely affect or impair, in any way or to
any extent, the Security Agreement, the security interest of the
Collateral Agent in the Collateral (including the Pledged
Trademarks) pursuant to the Security Agreement and this Trademark
Agreement, the attachment and perfection of such security interest
under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York or any
other relevant jurisdiction (including the security interest in the
Pledged Trademarks), or any present or future rights and interests
of the Collateral Agent in and to the Collateral (including the
Pledged Trademarks) under or in connection with the Security
Agreement, this Trademark Agreement or the Uniform Commercial Code
of the State of New York or any other relevant jurisdiction or
otherwise. Any and all rights and interests of the Collateral Agent
in and to the Pledged Trademarks (and any and all obligations of
each Assignor with respect to the Pledged Trademarks) provided
herein, or arising hereunder or in connection herewith, shall only
supplement and be cumulative and in addition to the rights and
interests of the Collateral Agent or any of the other Secured
Parties (and the obligations of each Assignor) in, to or with
respect to the Collateral (including the Pledged Trademarks)
provided in or arising under or in connection with the Security
Agreement or otherwise and shall not be in derogation
thereof.

written consent, no Assignor will enter into any agreement (for

licenses of the Pledged Trademarks in the ordinary course of
business in connection with franchise agreements permitted under
§28 of the Security Agreement and upon prior written notice to
the Collateral Agent.

automatically apply thereto and the Assignors shall provide to the
Collateral Agent notice thereof in writing not later than one month
after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Issuer and execute
and deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents or instruments
as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request further to

prosecution, defense, enforcement or any other necessary or
desirable actions in connection with the Pledged Trademarks, and
shall hold each of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties

6
7.2. Assignors’ Duties, etc . Each
Assignor shall have the right and the duty, subject to the last

jointly and severally by the Assignors. No Assignor shall abandon
any filed trademark registration application, or any Trademark
Registration or Trademark (other than any Trademark which has a
minimal value or is otherwise no longer useful in the business of
the Issuer and its Subsidiaries), without the consent of the
Collateral Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
7.3. Assignors’ Enforcement Rights

provided that no Assignor shall have the duty to take any
action with respect to any Trademark which has a minimal value or
is otherwise no longer useful in the business of the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries. Such Assignor may require the Collateral Agent to
join in such suit or action as necessary to assure such
Assignor’s ability to bring and maintain any such suit or
action in any proper forum if (but only if) the Collateral Agent is
completely satisfied that such joinder will not subject the
Collateral Agent or any Holder to any risk of liability. Each
Assignor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the
Collateral Agent for all damages, costs and expenses, including
legal fees, incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this
§7.3.
7.4. Protection of Trademarks, etc . In
general, each Assignor shall take any and all such actions
(including institution and maintenance of suits, proceedings or
actions) as may be necessary or appropriate to properly maintain,
protect, preserve, care for and enforce the Pledged Trademarks;
provided that no Assignor shall have the duty to take any
action with respect to any Trademark which has a minimal value or
is otherwise no longer useful in the business of the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries. No Assignor shall take or fail to take any action,
nor permit any action to be taken or not taken by others under its
control, that would adversely affect the validity, grant or
enforcement of the Pledged Trademarks; provided that no
Assignor shall have the duty to take any action with respect to any
Trademark which has a minimal value or is otherwise no longer
useful in the business of the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries.
7.5. Notification by Assignors . Promptly
upon obtaining knowledge thereof, the Assignors will notify the
Collateral Agent in writing of the institution of, or any final
adverse determination in, any proceeding in the PTO or any similar
office or agency of the United States or any foreign country, or
any court, regarding the validity of any of the Trademarks,
Trademark Registrations or Trademark Rights or any Assignor’s
rights, title or interests in and to the Pledged Trademarks, and of
any event that does or reasonably could materially adversely affect
the value of any of the Pledged Trademarks, the ability of any
Assignor or the Collateral Agent to dispose of any of the Pledged
Trademarks or the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent in
relation thereto (including but not limited to the levy of any
legal process against any of the Pledged Trademarks).
7
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the
Collateral Agent shall have, in addition to all other rights and
remedies given it by this Trademark Agreement, the Security
Agreement or otherwise, those rights and remedies allowed by law
and the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code as enacted in the State of New York or any other
relevant jurisdiction, and, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Collateral Agent may immediately, without demand of
performance and without other notice (except as set forth next
below) or demand whatsoever to any Assignor, all of which are
hereby expressly waived, sell or license at public or private sale
or otherwise realize upon the whole or from time to time any part
of the Pledged Trademarks, or any interest that any Assignor may
have therein, and after deducting from the proceeds of sale or
other disposition of the Pledged Trademarks all expenses incurred
by the Collateral Agent in attempting to enforce this Trademark
Agreement (including all reasonable expenses for broker’s
fees and legal services), shall transfer the residue of such
proceeds to the Trustee, which shall apply the residue of such
proceeds toward the payment of the Obligations in accordance with
the terms of the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement. Notice
of any sale, license or other disposition of the Pledged Trademarks
shall be given to the Assignors at least six (6) Business Days
before the time that any intended public sale or other public
disposition of the Pledged Trademarks is to be made or after which
any private sale or other private disposition of the Pledged
Trademarks may be made, which each Assignor hereby agrees shall be
reasonable notice of such public or private sale or other
disposition. At any such sale or other disposition, the Collateral
Agent may, to the extent permitted under applicable law, purchase
or license the whole or any part of the Pledged Trademarks or
interests therein sold, licensed or otherwise disposed of, subject
to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
