So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall be entitled to receive and retain all cash dividends paid in respect of the Securities, to vote the Securities and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Securities; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given by the Company if the effect thereof would in the judgment of the Secured Party impair any of the Securities Collateral or be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any of the provisions of the Facility Agreement, the Security Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. All such rights of the Company to receive cash dividends shall cease in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. All such rights of the Company to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications with respect to the Securities shall, at the Secured Party's option, as evidenced by the Secured Party's notifying the Company of such election, cease in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

7. Remedies.

7.1. In General.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Party shall thereafter have the following rights and remedies (to the extent permitted by applicable law) in addition to the rights and remedies of a secured party under the NY UCC, all such rights and remedies being cumulative, not exclusive, and enforceable alternatively, successively or concurrently, at such time or times as the Secured Party deems expedient:

(a) if the Secured Party so elects and gives notice of such election to the Company, the Secured Party may vote any or all shares of the Securities (whether or not the same shall have been transferred into its name or the name of its nominee or nominees) for any lawful purpose, including, without limitation, if the Secured Party so elects, for the liquidation of the assets of the issuer thereof, and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Securities and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (the Company hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Secured Party the proxy and attorney-in-fact of the Company, with full power of substitution, to do so);

(b) the Secured Party may demand, xxx for, collect or make any compromise or settlement the Secured Party deems suitable in respect of any Securities Collateral;

(c) the Secured Party may sell, resell, assign and deliver, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Securities Collateral, for cash or credit or both and upon such terms at such place or places, at such time or times and to such entities or other persons as the Secured Party thinks expedient, all without demand for performance by the Company or any notice or advertisement whatsoever except as expressly provided herein or as may otherwise be required by law;

(d) the Secured Party may cause all or any part of the Securities held by it to be transferred into its name or the name of its nominee or nominees; and

(e) the Secured Party may set off or otherwise apply or credit against the Obligations any and all sums deposited with it or held by it.

7.2. Sale of Securities Collateral.

In the event of any sale or other disposition of the Securities Collateral as provided in clause (c) of §7.1 and to the extent that any notice thereof is required to be given by law, the Secured Party shall give to the Company at least ten (10) days' prior notice of the time and place of any public sale or other disposition of the Securities Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. The Company hereby acknowledges that ten (10) days' prior notice of such sale or other disposition or sales or other dispositions shall be reasonable notice. The Secured Party may enforce its rights hereunder without any other notice and without compliance with any other condition precedent now or hereunder imposed by statute, rule of law or otherwise (all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law). The Secured Party may buy or otherwise acquire any part or all of the Securities Collateral at any public sale or other disposition and if any part or all of the Securities Collateral is of a type customarily sold or otherwise disposed of in a recognized market or is of the type which is the subject of widely-distributed standard price quotations, the Secured Party may buy or otherwise acquire at private sale or other disposition and may make payments thereof by any means. The Secured Party may apply the cash proceeds actually received from any sale or other disposition to the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like, to reasonable attorneys' fees, travel and all other expenses which may be incurred by the Secured Party in attempting to collect the Obligations or to enforce this Agreement or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding related to the subject matter of this Agreement, and then to the Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents. Only after such applications, and after payment by the Secured Party of any amount required by §9-608(a)(1)(C) or §9-615(a)(3) of the NY UCC, need the Secured Party account to the Company for any surplus.

7.3. Private Sales.

The Company recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale or other disposition of the Securities by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), federal banking laws, and other applicable laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers. The Company agrees that any such private sales may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales and that such private sales shall not by reason thereof be deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or such other federal banking or other applicable laws, even if the issuer would agree to do so. Subject to the foregoing, the Secured Party agrees that any sale of the Securities shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner, and the Company agrees to use its best efforts to cause the issuer or issuers of the Securities contemplated to be sold, to execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such issuer to execute and deliver, all at the Company's expense, all such instruments and documents, and to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Secured Party, advisable to exempt such Securities from registration under the provisions of the Securities Act, and to make all amendments to such instruments and documents which, in the opinion of the Secured Party, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. The Company further agrees to use its best efforts to cause such issuer or issuers to comply with the provisions of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of any jurisdiction which the Secured Party shall designate and, if required, to cause such issuer or issuers to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

7.4. Company's Agreements, etc.

The Company further agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary to make any sales of any portion or all of the Securities pursuant to this §7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto and all applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws), regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at the Company's expense. The Company further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this §7 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party, that the Secured Party has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees that each and every covenant contained in this §7 shall be specifically enforceable against the Company by the Secured Party and the Company hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

8. Marshalling.

The Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Securities Collateral), or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. All of the Secured Party's rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, the Company hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral that might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Party's rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and to the extent that it lawfully may the Company hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

9. Company's Obligations Not Affected.

The obligations of the Company hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired by (a) any exercise or nonexercise, or any waiver, by the Secured Party of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any security thereof (including this Agreement); (b) any amendment to or modification of the Transactions Documents or any of the Obligations; (c) any amendment to or modification of any instrument (other than this Agreement) securing any of the Obligations, including, without limitation, the Security Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; or (d) the taking of additional security for, or any other assurances of payment of, any of the Obligations or the release or discharge or termination of any security or other assurances of payment or performance for any of the Obligations; whether or not the Company shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing, the Company hereby generally waiving all suretyship defenses to the extent applicable.

10. Transfer, etc., by Company.

Without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, the Company will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or pledge or grant any security interest in or otherwise encumber or restrict any of the Securities Collateral or any interest therein, except for the pledge thereof and security interest therein provided for in this Agreement and any Permitted Liens (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement) set forth in clause (a) of the definition of Permitted Liens set forth in the Security Agreement so long as the holder of such lien has not taken any action to foreclose or otherwise realize on the Securities Collateral.

11. Further Assurances.

The Company will do all such acts, and will furnish to the Secured Party all such financing statements, certificates and other documents and will obtain all such governmental consents and corporate approvals and will do or cause to be done all such other things as the Secured Party may reasonably request from time to time in order to give full effect to this Agreement and to secure the rights of the Secured Party hereunder, all without any cost or expense to the Secured Party. The Company hereby irrevocably authorizes the Secured Party at any time and from time to time to file in any filing office in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral as the Securities Collateral or words of similar effect, or as being of equal or lesser scope or in greater detail, and (b) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction of the filing office for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether the Company is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to the Company. The Company agrees to furnish any such information to the Secured Party promptly upon request. The Company also ratifies its authorization for the Secured Party to have filed in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any like initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

12. Secured Party's Exoneration.

Under no circumstances shall the Secured Party be deemed to assume any responsibility for or obligation or duty with respect to any part or all of the Securities Collateral of any nature or kind or any matter or proceedings arising out of or relating thereto, other than (a) to exercise reasonable care in the physical custody of the Securities Collateral and (b) after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing to act in a commercially reasonable manner. The Secured Party shall not be required to take any action of any kind to collect, preserve or protect its or the Company's rights in the Securities Collateral or against other parties thereto. The Secured Party's prior recourse to any part or all of the Securities Collateral shall not constitute a condition of any demand, suit or proceeding for payment or collection of any of the Obligations.

13. No Waiver, etc.

Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by a written instrument expressly referring to this Agreement and to the provisions so modified or limited, and executed by the Secured Party and the Company. No act, failure or delay by the Secured Party shall constitute a waiver of its rights and remedies hereunder or otherwise. No single or partial waiver by the Secured Party of any default or right or remedy that it may have shall operate as a waiver of any other default, right or remedy or of the same default, right or remedy on a future occasion. The Company hereby waives presentment, notice of dishonor and protest of all instruments, included in or evidencing any of the Obligations or the Securities Collateral, and any and all other notices and demands whatsoever (except as expressly provided herein or in the Transaction Documents).
