Buyer is hereby fully authorized and empowered (without the necessity of any further consent or authorization from Grantor) and the right is expressly granted to Buyer, and Grantor hereby constitutes, appoints and makes Buyer as Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent for Grantor and in Grantor’s name, place and stead with full power of substitution, in Buyer’s name or Grantor’s name or otherwise, for Buyer’s sole use and benefit, but at Grantor’s cost and expense, to exercise, without notice, all or any of the following powers at any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, in addition to the rights set forth in Section 4.8(e)(ii) above and any other rights and remedies of Buyer, with respect to all or any of the Collateral:

(a) notify obligors on the Collateral to make and deliver payment to Buyer;

(b) to demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due with respect to the Collateral and otherwise deal with Proceeds;

(c) to receive, take, endorse, assign and deliver any and all checks, notes, drafts, documents and other negotiable and non-negotiable instruments and chattel paper taken or received by Buyer in connection therewith, in Grantor’s name or its own name or otherwise;

(d) to file any claim or to take other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise, or settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto;

(e) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the same or the proceeds or avails thereof or the relative goods, as fully and effectively as if Buyer were the absolute owner thereof;

(f) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to grant waivers and make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto; and

(g) to act as the sole stockholder of the Pledged Subsidiary and to take all of the foregoing actions with respect to the Pledged Subsidiary with respect to any and all assets, claims, rights and other properties of the Pledged Subsidiary;

provided, however, that Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and Buyer shall be under no obligation or duty to exercise any of the powers hereby conferred upon it and shall be without liability for any act or failure to act in connection with the collection of, or the preservation of any rights under, any Collateral.

SECTION 5.3 Certain Remedies. If, and for as long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) Buyer may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC and also may (i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon reasonable request of Buyer forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Buyer and make it available to Buyer at a place to be designated by Buyer that is reasonably convenient to both parties and (ii) without notice except as specified below or, if notice cannot be waived under the UCC, as required to be provided by the UCC, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Buyer’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as Buyer may deem commercially reasonable; provided, that any sale of Collateral which constitutes securities, as defined by the federal securities laws, shall be made in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or disposition shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ prior notice to Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or disposition or the time after which any private sale or disposition is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification; provided, however, that with respect to Collateral that is (A) perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value, or (B) is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (including but not limited to, Investment Property), no notice of sale or disposition need be given. For purposes of this Article V, notice of any intended sale or disposition of any Collateral may be given by in the manner set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Buyer shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale or disposition having been given. Buyer may adjourn any public or private sale or disposition from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefore, and such sale or disposition may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(b) Grantor recognizes that Buyer may be unable to effect a public sale of the Pledged Interests by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the United States federal securities laws and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchases which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to Grantor than if such sale were a public sale and agrees that such circumstances shall not, in and of themselves result in a determination that such sale was not made in a commercially reasonable manner. Buyer shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Interests for the time period necessary to permit the Pledged Subsidiary to register such securities for public sale under applicable securities laws, even if the Pledged Subsidiary agreed to do so. Grantor further agrees to use its reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make any sale or sales of all or a portion of the Pledged Interests pursuant to this Pledge Agreement valid and binding and in compliance with the organizational documents of the Pledged Subsidiary and any other applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or other determination of any court, board, commission, agency or instrumentality of the federal or state government or of any municipality or any agency.

(c) All amounts received as a result of the exercise of remedies under this Pledge Agreement or under applicable law shall be applied upon receipt to the Secured Obligations as set forth in the Transaction Documents.

(d) Buyer may do any or all of the following: (i) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of Buyer or its nominee, with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder, (ii) notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to Buyer of any amount due or to become due thereunder, (iii) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto, (iv) endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in Grantor’s name to allow collection of the Collateral, (v) take control of any Proceeds of the Collateral, (vi) execute (in the name, place and stead of Grantor) endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral, or (vii) act as the sole stockholder of the Pledged Subsidiary and to take all of the foregoing actions with respect to the Pledged Subsidiary with respect to any and all assets, claims, rights and other properties of the Pledged Subsidiary.

SECTION 5.4 Indemnitv and Expenses.

(a) Without limiting the generality of the provisions of the Transaction Documents, Grantor indemnifies and holds harmless Buyer and each of its respective officers, directors, employees and agents (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities arising out of or resulting from this Pledge Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Pledge Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from any Indemnified Party’s bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct or unlawful acts. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, Grantor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the foregoing which is permissible under applicable law.

(b) Grantor will upon demand pay to Buyer and any local counsel (which shall be limited to one firm in any jurisdiction) the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which Buyer and any local counsel may incur in connection herewith, including without limitation in connection with (i) the administration of this Pledge Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Buyer and any local counsel or any of Buyer Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
