and place of such postponed or adjourned sale or disposition. Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees

warranties, including but not limited to warranties of title, possession, merchantability and fitness.
Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees that Secured Party’s disclaimer of any and all warranties in
connection with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Pledged Collateral will not be considered to
adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such disposition of the Pledged Collateral. If
Secured Party sells, leases, licenses or otherwise disposes of any of the Pledged Collateral on credit,
Pledgor will be credited only with payments actually made by the recipient of such Pledged Collateral and
received by Secured Party and applied to the Pledgor Obligations. If any Person fails to pay for Pledged

license or other disposition of, any Pledged Collateral.
(f) Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Secured Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement
shall be cumulative and not alternative or exclusive, irrespective of any other rights or remedies that may
be available to Secured Party under any other Loan Document, by operation of law or otherwise, and may
be exercised by Secured Party at such time or times and in such order as Secured Party in Secured Party’s
sole discretion may determine, and are for the sole benefit of Secured Party. Secured Party’s failure to
exercise or delay in exercising any right or remedy shall not (i) preclude Secured Party from exercising
such right or remedy thereafter, (ii) preclude Secured Party from exercising any other right or remedy of
Secured Party, or (iii) result in liability to Secured Party or Secured Party’s Affiliates or their respective
members, managers, shareholders, directors, officers, partners, employees, consultants or agents.

Pledged Collateral consisting of Ownership Interests has been transferred into the name of Secured Party
or its nominee, as Pledgor’s proxy with full power, in the same manner, to the same extent and with the
same effect as if Pledgor were to do the same:
07 IGXGLOBAL Pledge Final.docx
Page 6 of 15
(a) to attend all meetings of equityholders of the issuer(s) of any of such Ownership Interests

manner, can or could do as an owner of an equity or profits interest of any Issuer, giving to Secured Party
full power of substitution and revocation; provided, however, that this proxy shall not be exercisable by
Secured Party and Pledgor alone shall have the foregoing powers (whether or not the Ownership Interests
have been transferred into the name of Secured Party or its nominee) until Secured Party has given to
Pledgor notice in writing of Secured Party’s election to exercise this proxy and an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that Secured Party may, at its option upon notice to
Pledgor, elect to postpone having this proxy become exercisable notwithstanding the occurrence of any
event described in this sentence which would otherwise cause this proxy to become exercisable. This
proxy shall terminate when this Agreement is no longer in full force and effect as provided in this
Agreement. Pledgor hereby revokes any proxy or proxies heretofore given by Pledgor to any person or
persons whatsoever and agrees not to give any other proxies in derogation hereof until this Pledge
Agreement is no longer in full force and effect; and
(d) Pledgor shall deliver promptly to Secured Party copies of all notices, statements or other
communications received by Pledgor or its nominee as registered owner of the Ownership Interests, and
upon demand and receipt of payment of necessary expenses thereof. After the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Pledgor (i) shall give to Secured Party or its designee a proxy or
proxies to vote and take all action with respect to such Ownership Interests, (ii) hereby authorizes Secured
Party to transfer the Ownership Interests or any part thereof into Secured Party’s own name or that of
Secured Party’s nominee so that Secured Party or its nominee may appear of record as the sole owner

Document executed by Pledgor including, without limitation, Account Debtors; or (g) any attempt
to inspect, verify, protect, preserve, restore, collect, sell, lease, license, liquidate or otherwise

fees arising from such services and all expenses, costs and charges of such counsel, all fees, costs,
expenses and charges of consultants and professionals engaged by Secured Party, and all other costs
and out-of-pocket expenses of Secured Party relating to any of the events or actions described
above shall be payable by Pledgor to Secured Party, and shall be additional Pledgor Obligations

agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default Pledgor shall
pay directly or reimburse Lender for all fees, costs, expenses and charges incurred by Secured Party
in Secured Party’s sole discretion in connection with the foregoing matters.
(iii) Additionally, if any tax, levy or charge (including any intangibles tax, stamp tax or
recording tax) shall be imposed upon or payable by Secured Party in connection with the execution
or delivery of this Agreement, or the execution, delivery, issuance or recording of any other Loan
Document executed by Pledgor, or the creation of any of the Pledgor Obligations under the
Obligation Agreement (a) Pledgor will pay (or will promptly reimburse Secured Party for the
payment of) all such taxes, levies and charges including, but not limited to, any interest and
penalties thereon, (b) following receipt of notice from Secured Party regarding the claim for
payment of, or imposition of, any such tax, levy or charge, with the consent of Secured Party,
which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Pledgor shall have the
right, at its own cost and expense, to contest the imposition of such tax, levy or charge, and with the
consent of the Secured Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed, to compromise or settle such claim for such tax, levy or charge and pay the same following
such compromise or settlement, and (c) in any circumstance described in clause (a) or (b) above,
Pledgor will indemnify, defend and hold Secured Party harmless from and against any liability in
connection therewith.
(iv) Pledgor’s obligations under this Section 12(h) shall survive termination of the Loans and
the termination of this Agreement.
(i)
Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. Pledgor and Secured Party recognize that in matters related to
the Loans and/or this Agreement, and as it may be subsequently modified and/or amended, either party
may be entitled to a trial in which matters of fact are determined by a jury (as opposed to a trial in which
such matters are determined by a judge, magistrate, referee or other elected or appointed decider of facts).
By executing this Agreement, Secured Party and Pledgor will give up their respective right to a trial by
jury. Pledgor and Secured Party each hereby expressly acknowledges that this waiver is entered into to
avoid delays, minimize trial expenses, and streamline the legal proceedings in order to accomplish a quick
resolution of claims arising under or in connection with Agreement, the Loan(s), the Note(s) and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(i) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY
LAW, PLEDGOR AND SECURED PARTY EACH HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY
AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT PLEDGOR OR SECURED PARTY
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION, ACTION, SUIT OR
PROCEEDING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, AT ANY TIME ARISING OUT OF, UNDER,
OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY LOAN, ANY NOTE, ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT,
BEFORE OR AFTER MATURITY.
(ii) CERTIFICATIONS. PLEDGOR HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NEITHER ANY
REPRESENTATIVE NOR AGENT OF SECURED PARTY NOR SECURED PARTY’S
COUNSEL HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, OR IMPLIED THAT
SECURED PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY LITIGATION, ACTION SUIT OR
PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER.
PLEDGOR
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SECURED PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT BY,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATION HEREIN.

(j)
Indemnification by Pledgor. Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend (with
counsel selected by Secured Party) and hold harmless Secured Party, Secured Party’s Affiliates and their
respective members, managers, directors, shareholders, officers, partners, employees, attorneys,
consultants and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, actual attorney’s fees and expenses and other
costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal), which may be incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee (whether for breach of contract, in tort or under any other theory of
liability) in connection with or as a result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under
any other Loan Documents or with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or
administration of, or in any other way arising out of relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to in this Agreement, or
any action or failure to act with respect to any of the foregoing, including any and all product liabilities,
environmental liabilities, taxes and legal costs and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with
disputes between or among any parties to and of the Loan Documents, the correctness, validity or
genuineness of any Instrument or Document that may be released or endorsed to Borrower by Secured
Party (which shall automatically be deemed to be without recourse to Secured Party in any event), the
existence, character, quantity, quality, condition, value or delivery of any Goods purporting to be
represented by any such Instruments or Documents, or any broker’s commission, finder’s fee or similar
charge or fee payable by Pledgor in connection with the Loans and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), except to the extent that any such Indemnified
Liability is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such
Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. PLEDGOR, FOR ITSELF AND FOR ALL
SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES AND ALL OTHER PERSONS THAT
MAY ASSERT CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, HEREBY WAIVES ANY
AND ALL CLAIMS FOR INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES AGAINST ALL INDEMNITEES EXCEPT
TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH INDEMNIFIED LIABILITY IS FINALLY DETERMINED BY
A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH
INDEMNITEE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. NO INDEMNITEE SHALL
BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO PLEDGOR, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY
BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH
SUCH PARTY, FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR
FOR INDIRECT PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT MAY BE
ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR
TERMINATED UNDER ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER. THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS SECTION 12(j) SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THE LOANS AND THE
TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Pledgor be
liable to any Indemnitee for any indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages.
(k) Savings Clause for Indemnification. To the extent that Pledgor’s undertaking to indemnify,
pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 12(j) above may be unenforceable because it violates any
law or public policy, Pledgor shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and
satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all matters referred to under this Section
12(j).
(l)
Entire Agreement; Amendments; Secured Party’s Consent. This Agreement (including the
Schedules and Exhibits) constitutes the entire agreement between Secured Party and Pledgor with respect
to the pledge by Pledgor of the Pledged Collateral to Secured Party, and supersedes all prior and
contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements or conditions between Secured Party and
Pledgor, whether express or implied, oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided,
however, if there is any conflict between the terms or provisions of this Agreement and the Loan
Agreement, the terms of the Loan Agreement shall supersede and govern such conflicting terms or
provisions. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by
Pledgor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be Authenticated by Secured
07 IGXGLOBAL Pledge Final.docx
Page 10 of 15
Party in a Record, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
(m) Cross Default; Cross Collateralization. Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a)
each other Loan Document and agreement between Pledgor and Secured Party is hereby amended, to the
extent necessary, to provide that a Default or an Event of Default under this Agreement is a default or
event of default, respectively, under each such Loan Document or agreement, and a default or event of
default under any Loan Document or agreement between Pledgor and Secured Party is a Default or an
Event of Default, respectively, under this Agreement, and (b) the Pledged Collateral secures the final and
indefeasible payment to Secured Party in cash and performance of the Pledgor Obligations in full,
whether now or hereafter outstanding under all other Loan Documents and agreements between Pledgor
and Secured Party, and (c) that the Collateral and any other Property of any other Person pledged to
Secured Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any other Loan
Document or agreement with Secured Party secures the final and indefeasible payment to Secured Party
in cash and performance of the Pledgor Obligations in full.
(n) Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.
(o) Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or affecting the validity or enforceability of
such provision in any other jurisdiction.
(p) Governing Law; Consent To Jurisdiction.
