Corporate Actions Except as otherwise set forth herein, Pledgor and Secured Party agree that Securities Intermediary shall have no responsibility for ascertaining or acting upon any calls, conversions, exchange offers, tenders, interest rate changes or similar matters relating to any Financial Assets credited to or held for the credit of the Reserve Account (except based on written instructions originated by Pledgor or Secured Party), or for informing Pledgor or Secured Party with respect thereto, whether or not Securities Intermediary has, or is deemed to have, knowledge of any of the aforesaid. Securities Intermediary is authorized to withdraw securities sold or otherwise disposed of, and to credit the Reserve Account with the proceeds thereof or make such other disposition thereof as may be directed in accordance with this Agreement. Securities Intermediary is further authorized to collect all income and other payments which may become due on Financial Assets credited to the Reserve Account, to surrender for payment maturing obligations and those called for redemption and to exchange certificates in temporary form for like certificates in definitive form, or, if the par value of any shares is changed, to effect the exchange for new certificates. It is understood and agreed by Pledgor and Secured Party that, although Securities Intermediary will use reasonable efforts to effect the transactions set forth in the preceding sentence, Securities Intermediary shall incur no liability for its failure to effect the same unless its failure is the result of negligence or willful misconduct.
