Balance Reports and Bank Statements. Bank agrees, at the request of Secured Party on any day on which Bank is open to conduct its regular banking business, other than a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday (each a "Business Day"), to make available to Secured Party a report ("Balance Report") showing the securities or sums in each Collateral Account as of the beginning of such Business Day, by a transmission method determined by Bank, in Bank's sole discretion. Company expressly consents to this transmission of information.

Bankruptcy Notice; Effect of Filing. If Bank at any time receives notice of the commencement of a bankruptcy case or other insolvency or liquidation proceeding by or against Company, Bank will continue to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that any action required of Bank under this Agreement is prohibited under applicable bankruptcy laws or regulations or is stayed pursuant to the automatic stay imposed under the United States Bankruptcy Code or by order of any court or agency.

Legal Process, Legal Notices and Court Orders. Bank will comply with any legal process, legal notice or court order it receives in relation to either Collateral Account if Bank determines in its sole discretion that the legal process, legal notice or court order is legally binding on it; provided, however, that Bank will give at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Secured Party of any intended compliance unless non-compliance would subject Bank to criminal liability.

10.

11.

Bank's Responsibility. This Agreement does not create any obligations of Bank, and Bank makes no express or implied representations or warranties with respect to its obligations under this Agreement, except for those expressly set forth herein. In particular, Bank need not investigate whether Secured Party is entitled under the Security Agreement or any related agreements to give any instructions to the Bank directing the Bank to dispose of any Collateral Account Assets, and Bank may rely on any and all notices and communications given by the Secured Party. Bank will not be liable to Company, Secured Party or any other party for any Losses and Liabilities caused by (i) circumstances beyond Bank's reasonable control (including, without limitation, computer malfunctions, interruptions of communication facilities, labor difficulties, acts of God, wars, or terrorist attacks) or (ii) any other circumstances, except to the extent that such Losses and Liabilities are caused by Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no event will Bank be liable for any indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not the likelihood of such damages was known to Bank, and regardless of the form of the claim or action, or the legal theory on which it is based.

12.

Termination. Upon termination, release or discharge of the security interests in the Collateral Account, this Agreement will terminate. Company's and Secured Party's respective obligations to report errors in funds transfers and bank statements and to pay Bank Fees, as well as the indemnifications made, and the limitations on the liability of Bank accepted, by Company and Secured Party under this Agreement will continue after the termination of this Agreement with respect to all the circumstances to which they are applicable, existing or occurring before such termination, and any liability of any party to this Agreement, as determined under the provisions of this Agreement, with respect to acts or omissions of such party prior to such termination will also survive such termination.

Bank is authorized by Company and Secured Party to act on any instructions or notices received by Bank if (a) such instructions or notices purport to be made in the name of Secured Party, (b) Bank reasonably believes that they are so made, and (c) they do not conflict with the terms of this Agreement as such terms may be amended from time to time, unless such conflicting instructions or notices are supported by a court order.

15.

Assignment; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, nor is this Agreement intended to confer upon any other person except the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party may transfer its rights and duties under this Agreement to a transferee to which, by contract or operation of law, Secured Party transfers substantially all of its rights and duties under the Security Agreement; provided that, as between Bank and Secured Party, Secured Party will not be released from its obligations under this Agreement unless and until Bank receives any such transferee's binding written agreement to assume all of Secured Party's obligations hereunder.

16.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a certified copy thereof via courier or overnight service to such party at the address it set forth on the signature page hereto and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Secured Party or the Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company's obligations to the Secured Party, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Secured Party. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

17.

To the extent that the terms of this Agreement are inconsistent with, or prohibited or unenforceable under, any applicable law or regulation, they will be deemed ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, and will be deemed modified and applied in a manner consistent with such law or regulation. Any provision of this Agreement which is deemed unenforceable or invalid in any jurisdiction will not affect the enforceability or validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or the same provision in any other jurisdiction.
