The Pledgor has delivered to and deposited with the Secured Parties any and all certificates or other instruments representing the Pledged Collateral and undated trust share powers endorsed in blank, as security for the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations. If in the future the Pledgor possesses or controls any other certificates or other instruments representing the Pledged Collateral, the Pledgor shall immediately and without notice deliver the same to the Secured Parties together with undated trust share powers endorsed in blank, as security for the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations.
Section 3. Secured Obligations. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Secured Obligations” shall mean the payment and performance of each and every obligation of the Tenant, the Guarantor and the Subtenants under the Transaction Documents or relating thereto, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and including, without limitation, the payment of the full amount of the Rent payable under the Amended Lease No. 2.
Section 4. Representations of the Pledgor. The Pledgor covenants that the Pledged Interests are duly and validly pledged to the Secured Parties in accordance with law and the Pledgor shall warrant and defend the Secured Parties’ right, title and security interest in and to the Pledged Interests against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever. The Pledgor represents and warrants to the Secured Parties that the Pledgor has good and marketable title to all the Pledged Interests pledged by it hereunder, free and clear of all claims, mortgages, pledges, liens, security interests and other encumbrances of every nature whatsoever; that the Pledged Interests are not subject to any restriction on transfer
3
contained in the Declarations of Trust or any other charter documents of the Subtenants or in any agreement or instrument to which the Subtenants or such Pledgor is a party or by which the Subtenants or the Pledgor is bound which would prohibit or restrict the pledge of the Pledged Interests hereunder or the disposition thereof upon default hereunder; that all of the Pledged Interests have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid for and nonassessable; and that the Pledged Interests constitute all of the presently issued and outstanding shares of the beneficial interests of the Subtenants.

The Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not sell, convey or otherwise dispose of any of the Pledged Collateral nor create, incur or permit to exist any pledge, mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance or any security interest whatsoever with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral or the proceeds thereof, other than the liens on and security interests in the Pledged Collateral created hereby.

Section 9. Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Parties may cause all or any of the Pledged Collateral to be transferred into its name or into the name of its nominee or nominees, subject to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to exercise the voting power with respect to the Pledged Collateral, to receive and retain, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, any and all dividends or other distributions at any time and from time to time declared or made upon any of the Pledged Collateral, and to exercise any and all such rights of payment, conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof,
5
including, without limitation, all such rights under the Declaration of Trust or any other charter document of any Subtenant, and further including, without limitation, the right to exchange, at its discretion, any and all of the Pledged Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of such Subtenant, upon the exercise of any such right, privilege or option pertaining to the Pledged Collateral, and in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Secured Parties may determine.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Parties shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law and shall have the right to sell, resell, assign and deliver all or any of the Pledged Collateral in one or more parcels at any exchange or broker’s board or at public or private sale. The Secured Parties shall give the Pledgor at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made. Any such notice shall be deemed to meet any requirement hereunder or under any applicable law (including the Uniform Commercial Code) that reasonable notification be given of the time and place of such sale or other disposition. Such notice may be given without any demand of performance or other demand, all such demands being hereby expressly waived by the Pledgor to the extent permitted by applicable law. All such sales shall be at such commercially reasonable price or prices as the Secured Parties shall deem best and either for cash or on credit or for future delivery (without assuming any responsibility for credit risk). At any such sale or sales, the Secured Parties may purchase any or all of the Pledged Collateral to be sold thereat upon such terms as the Secured Parties may deem best. Upon any such sale or sales, the Pledged Collateral so purchased shall be held by the purchaser absolutely free from any claims or rights of any kind or nature of the Pledgor, including any equity of redemption and any similar rights, all such equity of redemption and any similar rights being hereby expressly waived and released by the Pledgor to the extent permitted by applicable law. In the event any consent, approval or authorization of any governmental agency will be necessary to effectuate any such sale or sales, the Pledgor shall execute, and hereby agrees to cause the applicable Subtenant to execute, all such applications or other instruments as may be required. The proceeds of any such sale or sales,
6
together with any other additional collateral security at the time received and held hereunder, shall be received and applied: first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, including attorneys’ fees; and second, to the payment of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as the Secured Parties shall determine; and any surplus thereafter remaining shall be paid to the Pledgor or to whomever may be legally entitled thereto (including, if applicable, any subordinated creditor of the Pledgor).
The Pledgor recognizes that the Secured Parties may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own accounts, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor agrees that private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if such Pledged Collateral were sold at public sales, and that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit such Pledged Collateral to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. The Pledgor agrees that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances may be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Pledgor to effect a registration of the Pledged Collateral under the Securities Act of 1933.
(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Secured Parties, in their discretion, may demand, xxx for and/or collect any money or property at any time due, payable or receivable, to which it may be entitled hereunder, on account of or in exchange for any of the Pledged Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Secured Parties shall further have the right, for and in the name, place and stead of the Pledgor, to execute endorsements, assignments, or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Pledged Collateral.
(e) The Secured Parties shall not be obligated to do any of the acts hereinabove authorized and in the event that the Secured Parties elect to do any such act, the Secured Parties shall not be responsible to the Pledgor, other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct.
7
(f) The Secured Parties shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Pledgor, or against or in payment of the Secured Obligations or any other obligation owed to the Secured Parties by the Pledgor or any other person.
Section 10. Rights of Secured Parties. No course of dealing between the Pledgor and the Secured Parties nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Parties, any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the Secured Obligations, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided and provided under any of the Secured Obligations are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law, including, without limitation, the rights and remedies of a Secured Parties under the Uniform Commercial Code.
Section 11. Assignment, Etc. No waiver by the Secured Parties or by any other holder of Secured Obligations of any default shall be effective unless in writing nor operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion. In the event of a sale or assignment by any of the Secured Parties of its interest under the Transaction Documents, such Secured Party may assign or transfer its rights and interest under this Agreement in whole or in part to the purchaser or assignee of such interest, whereupon such purchaser or purchasers shall become vested with all of the powers and rights given to such Secured Party hereunder, and such Secured Party shall thereafter be forever released and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility thereafter arising hereunder with respect to the rights and interests so assigned.
Section 12. Duty of Secured Parties. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Pledged Collateral while held hereunder, the Secured Parties shall have no duty or liability to collect any sums due in respect thereof or to protect or preserve rights pertaining thereto, and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral upon surrendering the same to the Pledgor.
Section 13. Waivers, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and assigns, hereby waives presentment, demand, payment, notice of dishonor, protest and, except as otherwise provided herein, all other demands and notices in connection with this Agreement or the enforcement of the rights of the
8
Secured Parties hereunder or in connection with any Secured Obligations. The Secured Parties may release, supersede, exchange or modify any collateral security it may from time to time hold and release, surrender or modify the liability of any third party without giving notice hereunder to the Pledgor. The Secured Parties shall be under no duty to exhaust its rights against any such collateral security or any such third party before realizing on the Pledged Collateral. Such modifications, changes, renewals, releases or other actions shall in no way affect the Pledgor’s obligations hereunder.
The Pledgor further waives any right it may have under the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (or under the constitution of any other state in which the any of the Pledged Collateral may be located), or under the Constitution of the United States of America, to notice (except for notice specifically required hereby) or to a judicial hearing prior to the exercise of any right or remedy provided by this Agreement to the Secured Parties, and waives its rights, if any, to set aside or invalidate any sale duly consummated in accordance with the foregoing provisions hereof on the grounds (if such be the case) that the sale was consummated without a prior judicial hearing.

The Secured Parties are hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, of the Pledgor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action, including, without limitation, executing, delivering and filing applications, certificates, instruments and other documents and papers with governmental authorities, and executing any instruments, including without
