Pledgee shall at once pay over to the Pledgor any such
dividends which may have been received by it; provided,
however, that all shares or property representing

or reclassification of such Collateral or received in exchange
therefor, as a result of a merger, consolidation or otherwise,

the same is continuing:
(a) the Pledgee, or its nominee or nominees, shall, at its option
(after notice to the Pledgor of the Pledgee's intent to
exercise such rights), have the sole and exclusive right to
exercise all voting powers pertaining to the shares
constituting Collateral, and shall exercise such powers in

the Pledgee's sole option and as the Pledgee in its sole discretion may deem
advisable:
(a) the Pledgee may enforce any and all security which it may hold
including the Collateral and may deal with or realize upon
such of the Collateral as it may in its sole discretion deem
fit; provided however, that the Pledgee shall not be bound
- 7 -
to deal with the Collateral nor exercise any right or remedy
thereunder and shall not be liable for any loss which may be
occasioned by any failure to do so;
(b) to settle, compromise or release, on terms acceptable to the

Collateral, nor any stock dividends on any Collateral nor such cash dividends on
any such Collateral as may become payable on or in the course of the
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of any corporation and which shall be in
any way the proceeds of or chargeable to or payable out of capital. Any such
redemption price, stock dividends and cash dividends chargeable to or payable
out of capital received by the Pledgor shall forthwith be paid over or delivered
to the Pledgee without demand. If the Pledgee shall have permitted any such
Collateral to remain registered in the name of the Pledgor, the Pledgor
covenants to furnish to the Pledgee on demand suitable orders for the payment to
the Pledgee of any such redemption price or cash dividends which represent the
proceeds of or are chargeable to or payable out of capital or for the issue in
the name of the Pledgee or its nominee or nominees, and the delivery to the
Pledgee of any such stock dividends.
11. Protection of Securities. The Pledgee may, in its discretion, protect the
property which underlies or is charged or affected by any of the Collateral by

thereof, by joining in any reorganization of such property or of the corporation
owing the same, or in any other manner which the Pledgee may deem expedient.

whatsoever to collect any dividends, interest or other payments due or accruing

to the Pledgee under any statute or rule of law, this Pledge Agreement or any
other agreement, all of which rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative
and may be exercised successively or concurrently.
14. Forbearance Not Waiver. Any forbearance, failure or delay by the Pledgee in
exercising any right, power or remedy shall not preclude the further exercise
thereof, and every right, power or remedy of the Pledgee shall continue in full
force and effect until such right, power or remedy is specifically waived in a
writing executed by the Pledgee. The Pledgor waives any right to require the
Pledgee to proceed against any person or to exhaust any Collateral or to pursue
any remedy in the Pledgee's power prior to pursuing the Pledgor in respect of
the Obligations.
15. Setoff. The Pledgor agrees that the Pledgee may exercise its rights of
setoff with respect to the Obligations in the same manner as if the Obligations

liens, claims and rights of third parties whatsoever. All documentary, stamp or
other taxes or fees owing in connection with the issuance, transfer and/or
pledge of the Collateral or any substituted or additional Collateral have been
paid and will hereafter be paid by the Pledgor as such become due and payable.

in default or of any demand for payment having been made shall be prima facie
evidence of such default or demand.

Liability or either of them as the Pledgee may see fit, and the Pledgee shall at
all times and from time to time have the right to change

or the Pledgee's right to hold, deal with and realize on the security of the
Collateral.
19. Return; Acquittance. The Pledgee may at any time deliver any Collateral to
the Pledgor and the receipt thereof by the Pledgor shall be a complete and full
