• Pledge and Security Interest CUC hereby pledges and lawfully grants to Telesource a security interest in and to the Escrow Account and all funds and assets at any time contained therein, whether in the form of cash, bonds, bills, notes, securities, other instruments, or other obligations, regardless of where or by which person or entity the Escrow Account or such funds or assets shall be held. For purposes of this Agreement and Telesource's continuing security interest in the Escrow Account, the Agent shall maintain at its principal office at the address stated above in ________________, ________________, the funds and other assets comprising the Escrow Account or evidence of record and/or beneficial ownership thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement and the Escrow Account shall secure, for the benefit of Telesource and its successors and assign, all current and future obligations of CUC to Telesource pursuant to the Contract and the Notes and any successor instrument thereto. Each party hereto agrees and covenants to take all such action as may be reasonably requested of it to perfect Telesource's first priority security interest in the Escrow Account; provided however, that such security interest shall not be superior to the Agent's rights to be compensated or indemnified in accordance with the terms hereof. Without the prior written consent of Telesource, CUC will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber to any person other than Telesource all or part of the Escrow Account or any interest therein. If there occurs any change in the law, rules or regulation or any judicial decision or any other event or circumstance pertaining to or affecting rights of creditors in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings the result of which would be to increase the likelihood in Telesource's view that the Escrow Account would not or may not be available to Telesource for the purposes described herein and in the Contract, CUC agrees, upon Telesource's request, (i) to negotiate in good faith with Telesource changes in this Agreement and/or the entire mechanism by which CUC's obligations under the Contract and the Notes are secured and (ii) to permit Telesource to hold the balance of the Escrow Account in an account in Telesource's name in an institution selected by Telesource, which institution shall have a combined capital and surplus of not less than $100 million. Telesource shall bear its own costs of such negotiations and associated document preparation. CUC shall not be obligated to accept any new arrangement which increases the amount of collateral that it must provide to secure its repayment and payment obligations under this Agreement. In the event that there is any change in the location of all or part of the Escrow Account, CUC agrees to take all action requested by Telesource to amend, modify or replace Telesource's filings perfecting its security interest in the Escrow Account, or to enable Telesource to effect any required new or additional filing to perfect its said security interest.

• Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral (a) 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. (b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in 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 and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each 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 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 or Investment Property 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. (c) 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 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. (d) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, 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 or Investment Property 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. (e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
