Secured Party as follows with respect to the Pledged Shares:

Company under the Financing Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Related
Agreements, the Secured Party will have good title (both record and beneficial)

to circumvent the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or any applicable state law,
(iii) that Pledgor has been advised by counsel of the
elements of a bona-fide pledge for purposes of Rule 144(d)(3)(iv) under the

(iv) that this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of Pledgor enforceable in accordance with its terms (except
as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium, and similar laws, now or hereafter in
effect).

security interest, claim, lien, pledge or other encumbrance with respect to such
Pledgor's Pledged Shares or attempt to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of
any of such shares until the Aggregate Secured Obligations have been paid in
full or otherwise fully performed.
7. Collection of Dividends and Interest. During the term of this
Agreement and so long as the Company is not in default under any of the Secured
Obligations and so long as Pledgor is not in default hereunder, Pledgor is
authorized to collect all
dividends, distributions, interest payments, and other amounts that may be,
or may become, due on any of the Collateral.
8. Voting Rights. During the term of this Agreement and until such
time as this Agreement has terminated or Secured Party has exercised its
rights under this Agreement to foreclose its security interest in the
Collateral, Pledgor shall have the right to exercise any voting rights
evidenced by, or relating to, the Collateral.
9. Warrants and Options. In the event that, during the term of this
Agreement, subscription, warrants, dividends, or any other rights or option
shall be issued in connection with the Collateral, such warrants, dividends,
rights and options shall be immediately delivered to Secured Party to be
held under the terms hereof in the same manner as the Collateral.
10. Preservation of the Value of the Collateral and Reimbursement of
Secured Party. Pledgor shall pay all taxes, charges, and assessments against
the Collateral and do all acts necessary to preserve and maintain the value
thereof. On failure of Pledgor so to do, Secured Party may make such
payments on account thereof as (in Secured Party's discretion) is deemed
desirable, and Pledgor shall reimburse Secured Party immediately on demand
for any and all such payments expended by Secured Party in enforcing,
collecting, and exercising its remedies hereunder.
11. Default and Remedies.
(a) For purposes of this Agreement, "Event of Default" shall
mean
(i) default in the performance by the Company or the
Pledgor of any of the Aggregate Secured Obligations
after the expiration, if such default is capable of
being cured, without cure following the expiration
of any applicable cure period, and if not so capable
of being cured, immediately; and
(ii) a breach by a Pledgor of any of his representations,
warrants, covenants or agreements in this Agreement.
(b) During the term of this Agreement, the Secured Party shall have the
following rights after any Event of Default and for so long as the Aggregate
Secured Obligations are not satisfied in full:
the rights and remedies provided by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted
by the State of New York (as said law may at any time be amended), except
that the Secured Party waives any right to deficiency pursuant to Section
9-608 thereof or otherwise;
the right to receive and retain all dividends, payments and other
distributions of any kind upon any or all of the Pledged Shares as
additional Collateral;
the right to cause any or all of the Pledged Shares and all additional
Collateral to be transferred to its own name and have such transfer recorded in
any place or places deemed appropriate by Secured Party; and
the right to sell, at a public or private sale, the Collateral or any part
thereof for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or
prices in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code (as such law may be
amended from time to time) and any applicable state and federal securities laws.
Upon and such sale contemplated by the preceding provisions, Secured Party shall
have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the
Collateral so sold. Secured Party shall give the Pledgor not less than ten (10)
days written notice of its intention to make any such sale. Any such sale shall
be held at such time or times during ordinary business hours and at such place
or places as Secured Party may fix in the notice of such sale. Secured Party may
adjourn or cancel any sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time
by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be
made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In case of any
sale of all or any part of the Collateral upon terms calling for payments in the
future, any Collateral so sold may be retained by Secured Party until the
selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but Secured Party shall incur no
liability in the case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for
the Collateral so sold and, in the case of such failure, such Collateral may
again be sold upon like notice. Secured Party, however, instead of exercising
the power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at
law or in equity to foreclose the security interest and sell the Collateral, or
any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of
competent jurisdiction, the Pledgor having been given due notice of all such
action. Secured Party shall incur no liability as a result of a sale of the
Collateral or any part thereof.
(c) Should the Secured Party exercise the rights set forth in clauses
(b)(ii) or (b)(iii) of this Section 11, the Secured Party so acting shall assign
to the Pledgor all of the rights and benefits of such Secured Party under the
Notes, the Financing Agreements, and the other Related Agreements; provided,
however, that the Secured Party shall make such assignment to the Pledgor
without recourse.
12. Waiver. Pledgor waives any right that it may have to require Secured
Party to proceed against any other person, or proceed against or exhaust any
other security, or pursue any other remedy Secured Party may have.
13. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect until all of the Aggregate Secured Obligations shall have been paid in
full or otherwise satisfied and the security interests are thereby released.
Upon termination of this Agreement, the Collateral shall be returned within five
(5) Business Days to Pledgor or counsel for the Company.
14. Company Acknowledgment, Representation and Agreement. The Company
acknowledges the terms of this Agreement and the pledge of the Pledged Shares
created thereby. The Company represents and warrants to the Secured Party that
the Pledged Shares are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and that it will not permit the transfer of the Pledged Shares
except in accordance with this Agreement while the same is in effect.
