If available and if otherwise required by this Agreement, Xxxx shall have the right to exchange uncertificated Pledged Collateral for certificated Pledged Collateral, and to exchange certificated Pledged Collateral for certificates of larger or smaller denominations, for any purpose consistent with this Agreement.

SECTION 7 Authorization; Xxxx Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Xxxx shall have the right to, in the name of the Company, or in the name of Xxxx or otherwise, without notice to or assent by the Company, and the Company hereby constitutes and appoints Xxxx (and any of Aron’s officers, employees or agents designated by Xxxx) as the Company’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority to:

(a) file any of the financing statements which must be filed to perfect or continue perfected, maintain the priority of or provide notice of Aron’s security interest in the Collateral;

(f) send requests for verification of Rights to Payment to the customers or other obligors of the Company;

(l) [Reserved.]

(m) execute any and all endorsements, assignments or other documents and instruments necessary to sell, lease, assign, convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of the Collateral;

(n) execute and deliver to any securities intermediary or other Person any entitlement order or other notice, document or instrument which Xxxx may xxxx necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Deposit Accounts and Investment Property constituting Collateral and Aron’s security interest therein; and

(o) execute any and all such other documents and instruments, and do any and all acts and things for and on behalf of the Company, which Xxxx may xxxx necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Collateral and Aron’s security interest therein and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

Xxxx agrees that, except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney, or any rights granted to Xxxx, pursuant to clauses (b) through (n). The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as the Secured Obligations have not been paid and performed in full. The Company hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that Xxxx shall lawfully and in good faith do or cause to be done by virtue of and in compliance with this Section 7.

SECTION 8 Xxxx Performance of Company Obligations. Xxxx may perform or pay any obligation which the Company has agreed to perform or pay under or in connection with this Agreement, and the Company shall reimburse Xxxx on demand for any amounts paid by Xxxx pursuant to this Section 8.

SECTION 9 Aron’s Duties. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, Xxxx shall have no duty to exercise any of the rights, privileges or powers afforded to it and shall not be responsible to the Company or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of Collateral in Aron’s possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by Xxxx hereunder, Xxxx shall have no duty or liability to exercise or preserve any rights, privileges or powers pertaining to the Collateral.

SECTION 10 Remedies.

(a) Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Xxxx shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, the S&O Agreement or any other Transaction Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other Applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company agrees that:

(i) Xxxx may peaceably and without notice enter any premises of the Company, take possession of any Collateral, remove or dispose of all or part of the Collateral on any premises of the Company or elsewhere, and otherwise collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, and demand, give receipt for, settle, renew, extend, exchange, compromise, adjust, or xxx for all or any part of the Collateral, as Xxxx may determine.

(ii) Xxxx may require the Company to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to Xxxx at any place and time designated by Xxxx.

(iii) [Reserved.]

(iv) Xxxx may secure the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof (to the extent and in the manner provided by Applicable Law).

(v) Xxxx may withdraw (or cause to be withdrawn) any and all funds from any Deposit Accounts or securities accounts constituting Collateral.

(vi) Xxxx may sell, resell, lease, use, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing (utilizing in connection therewith any of the Company’s assets, without charge or liability to Xxxx therefor) at public or private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, for cash or credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, all as Xxxx xxxxx advisable; provided, however, that the Company shall be credited with the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by Xxxx. Xxxx shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption the Company hereby releases, to the extent permitted by law. Xxxx shall give the Company such notice of any public or private sale as may be required by the UCC or other Applicable Law. The Company recognizes that Xxxx may be unable to make a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale.

(vii) Xxxx shall not have any obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. Xxxx has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Secured Obligations by collecting them from any other Person liable for them and Xxxx may release, modify or waive any Collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Secured Obligations, all without affecting Aron’s rights against the Company. The Company waives any right it may have to require Xxxx to pursue any third Person for any of the Secured Obligations. Xxxx may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial

reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Xxxx may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Xxxx may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If Xxxx xxxxx any of the Collateral upon credit, the Company will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Xxxx and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Xxxx may resell the Collateral and the Company shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale.

(b) [Reserved.]

(c) Proceeds Account. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations may be contingent, unmatured or unliquidated at such time as there may exist an Event of Default, Xxxx may, at its election, (i) retain the proceeds of any sale, collection, disposition or other realization upon the Collateral (or any portion thereof) in a special purpose non-interest-bearing restricted deposit account (the “Proceeds Account”) created and maintained by Xxxx for such purpose (which shall constitute a Deposit Account included within the Collateral hereunder) until such time as Xxxx may elect to apply such proceeds to the Secured Obligations, and the Company agrees that such retention of such proceeds by Xxxx shall not be deemed strict foreclosure with respect thereto; (ii) in any manner elected by Xxxx, estimate the liquidated amount of any such contingent, unmatured or unliquidated claims and apply the proceeds of the Collateral against such amount; or (iii) otherwise proceed in any manner permitted by Applicable Law. The Company agrees that the Proceeds Account shall be a blocked account and that upon the irrevocable deposit of funds into the Proceeds Account, the Company shall not have any right of withdrawal with respect to such funds. Accordingly, the Company irrevocably waives until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 23 the right to make any withdrawal from the Proceeds Account and the right to instruct Xxxx to honor drafts against the Proceeds Account.

(d) Application of Proceeds. The cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of the Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect of the Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall be applied as provided in Article 19 of the S&O Agreement. Any surplus thereof which exists after payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations shall be promptly paid over to the Company or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the UCC or other Applicable Law. The Company shall remain liable to Xxxx for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral.

SECTION 11 Certain Waivers. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) any right of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Collateral or other collateral or security for the Secured Obligations; (b) any right to require Xxxx (i) to proceed against any Person, (ii) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) to pursue any remedy in Aron’s power, or (iv) to make or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Collateral; and (c) all claims, damages, and demands against Xxxx arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral, unless such damages, and claims and demands in respect thereof, are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from Aron’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 12 Notices. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be given in the manner and to the addresses specified in the S&O Agreement, subject to the terms set forth in Article 27 of the S&O Agreement. Each of the Company and Xxxx may change its address, facsimile number or email address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties.

SECTION 13 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of Xxxx to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to Xxxx.

SECTION 14 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification; Other Charges.

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay:

(i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Xxxx and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for Xxxx), and shall pay all reasonable fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of Xxxx, in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including in connection with the preservation or custody of any Collateral;

(ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Xxxx (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Xxxx), and shall pay all reasonable fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of Xxxx, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, (B) in connection with the Secured Obligations, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the Secured Obligations, and including in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, and (C) in connection with the protection, sale or collection of, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, including all expenses of taking, collecting, holding, sorting, handling, preparing for sale, selling, or the like, and other such expenses of sales and collections of Collateral; and

(b) Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify Xxxx, any Affiliate thereof (and any agent thereof) and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless

from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all reasonable fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Company), other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties, arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the Secured Obligations or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Company, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, if the Company has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(d) Interest. Any amounts payable to Xxxx under this Section 14 or otherwise under this Agreement if not paid upon demand shall bear interest from the date of such demand until paid in full, at the rate of interest set forth in Section 10.6 of the S&O Agreement.

(e) Survival. The agreements in this Section 14 shall survive the termination of the Agreement and the repayment of all Secured Obligations.

SECTION 15 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Company, Xxxx, each indemnified Person referred to in Section 14, and their respective successors and assigns and shall bind any Person who becomes bound as a debtor to this Agreement.

SECTION 16 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERENED BY, CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER STATE.

SECTION 17 Submission to Jurisdiction. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SITUATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, (WITHOUT RECOURSE TO ARBITRATION UNLESS BOTH PARTIES AGREE IN
