Section 6. REMEDIES. During the Security Agreement Remedies Period, until the Secured Obligations are paid in full, the Purchaser may exercise and enforce, in any order, (i) each and all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party upon default under the UCC or other applicable law, (ii) each and all of the rights and remedies available to it under the Assignment Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, and (iii) each and all of the following rights and remedies:

(a) Notification of Account Debtors. At the request of the Purchaser, the Company shall notify any account debtors and other persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the lien of the Purchaser on the Collateral and shall direct such account debtors that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Purchaser or to any financial institution designated by the Purchaser as the Purchaser’s agent. Without notice to the Company or ARIAD UK, the Purchaser may notify any or all account debtors and obligors on any accounts or other claims constituting Collateral and may direct, demand and enforce payment thereof directly to the Purchaser.

(b) Disposition of Collateral. The Purchaser may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of or transfer any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public foreclosure sale or in a private foreclosure sale or transaction, on any exchange or market or at the Purchaser’s offices or at any other location, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and may enter into all contracts necessary or appropriate in connection therewith,

without any notice whatsoever unless required by law. Where permitted by law, the Purchaser may be the purchaser at any such sale. The Company and ARIAD UK agree that at least ten (10) calendar days’ written notice to the Company and ARIAD UK of the time and place of any public foreclosure sale of Collateral, or the time after which any private foreclosure sale of Collateral is to be made, shall be commercially reasonable. The giving of notice of any such sale or other disposition shall not obligate the Purchaser to proceed with the sale or disposition, and any such sale or disposition may be postponed or adjourned from time to time, without further notice.

6.02 Application of Proceeds. All proceeds received by the Purchaser in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Purchaser against the Secured Obligations in the following order of priority:

First, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Purchaser and its agents and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Purchaser in connection therewith;

Second, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations then due and payable in the manner and order provided in the Assignment Agreement; and

Third, the reminder of such proceeds shall be paid to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

Section 7. STANDARDS FOR EXERCISING REMEDIES. The powers conferred on the Purchaser hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Purchaser shall not be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Purchaser shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or to protect, preserve, vote or exercise any rights pertaining to any Collateral. The powers conferred on the Purchaser hereunder are solely to protect the Purchaser’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Purchaser to exercise any such powers. The Purchaser shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Purchaser accords its own property or if it selects, with reasonable care, a custodian to hold such Collateral on its behalf.
