3. VOTING RIGHTS, DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:
3(a) Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting
and/or consensual rights and powers relating or pertaining to the Collateral or
any part thereof, subject to the terms hereof.
3(b) Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain cash
dividends payable on the Collateral; provided, however, that all other dividends
(including, without limitation, stock and liquidating dividends), distributions
in property, returns of capital and other distributions made on or in respect of
the Collateral, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or
reclassification of the outstanding capital stock of XM or received in exchange
for the Collateral or any part thereof or as a result of any merger,
consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which XM may be a
party or otherwise, and any and all cash and other property received in exchange
for or redemption of any of the Collateral, shall be retained by Secured Party,
or, if delivered to Pledgor, shall be held in trust for the benefit of Secured
Party and forthwith delivered to Secured Party and shall be considered as part
of the Collateral for all purposes of this Agreement.
3(c) Secured Party shall execute and deliver (or cause to be
executed and delivered) to Pledgor all such proxies, powers of attorney,
dividend orders, and other instruments as Pledgor may request for the purpose of
enabling Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers
which Pledgor is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 3(a) above and/or to
receive the dividends which Pledgor is authorized to receive and retain pursuant
to Section 3(b) above; and Pledgor shall execute and deliver to Secured Party
such instruments as may be required or may be requested by Secured Party to
enable Secured Party to receive and retain the dividends, distributions in
property, returns of capital and other distributions it is authorized to receive
and retain pursuant to Section 3(b) above.
3(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, all rights of Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual
rights and powers which Pledgor is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 3(a)
above and/or to receive the dividends which Pledgor is authorized to receive and
retain pursuant to Section 3(b) above shall cease, at the option of Secured
Party (if so directed by Secured Party), on not less than one (1) day's notice
to Pledgor, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Secured Party,
who shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such
voting and/or consensual rights and powers and/or to receive and retain such
dividends. In such case Pledgor shall execute and deliver such documents as
Secured Party may request to enable Secured Party to exercise such rights and
receive such dividends. In addition, Secured Party is hereby appointed the
attorney-in-fact of Pledgor, with full power of substitution, which appointment
as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, to take all
such actions after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, whether in the name of Secured Party or Pledgor, as Secured Party may
consider necessary or desirable for the purpose of exercising such rights and
receiving such dividends. Any and all money and other property paid over to or
received by Secured Party pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3(d) shall
be retained by Secured Party as part of the Collateral and shall be applied in
accordance with the provisions hereof.
4. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT
4(a) If at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, then Secured Party may, in addition to having the right to
exercise any right or remedy of a secured party upon default under the UCC as
then in effect in the jurisdiction in which the Collateral is held by Secured
Party or its agent, to the extent permitted by law, without being required to
give any notice to Pledgor except as provided below:
(i) Apply any cash held by it hereunder in the
manner provided in Section 4(c) below; and
(ii) If there shall be no such cash or if the
cash so applied shall be insufficient to pay in full the items specified in
Sections 4(c)(i), (c)(ii) and (c)(iii) below, collect, receive, appropriate and
realize upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and/or, Secured Party may,
sell, assign, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver the
Collateral or any part thereof, in its entirety or in portions, at public or
private sale or at any broker's board, on any securities exchange or at any of
Secured Party's places of business or elsewhere, for cash, upon credit or for
future delivery, and at such price or prices as Secured Party may deem best, and
Secured Party or Secured Party may (except as otherwise provided by law) be the
purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold and thereafter may hold the
same, absolutely, free from any right or claim of whatsoever kind.
In the event of a sale as aforesaid, Secured Party is
authorized to, at any such sale, if it deems it advisable so to do, restrict the
number of prospective bidders or purchasers and/or further restrict such
prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that
they are purchasing for their own account, for investment, and not with a view
to the distribution or resale of the Collateral, and may otherwise require that
such sale be conducted subject to restrictions as to such other matters as
Secured Party may deem necessary in order that such sale may be effected in such
manner as to comply with all applicable state and federal securities laws. Upon
any such sale, Secured Party shall have the right to deliver, assign and
transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold.
Pledgor hereby acknowledges that, notwithstanding that a
higher price might be obtained for the Collateral at a public sale than at a
private sale or sales, the making of a public sale of the Collateral may be
subject to registration requirements under applicable securities laws and
similar other legal restrictions compliance with which would require such
actions on the part of Pledgor, would entail such expenses, and would subject
Secured Party, any underwriter through whom the Collateral may be sold and any
controlling person of any of the foregoing to such liabilities, as would make a
public sale of the Collateral impractical. Accordingly, Pledgor hereby agrees
that private sales made by Secured Party in good faith in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 4(a) may be at prices and on other terms less
favorable to the seller than if the Collateral were sold at public sale, and
that Secured Party shall not have any obligation to take any steps in order to
permit the Collateral to be sold at public sale, a private sale being considered
or deemed to be a sale in a commercially reasonable manner.
Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold,
absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any
equity or right of redemption of Pledgor, who hereby specifically waives all
rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which Pledgor has or may have under any
rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted. Secured Party shall
give Pledgor not less than ten (10) days' written notice of its intention to
make any such public or private sale. Such notice, in case of a public sale,
shall state the time and place fixed for such sale, and, in case of a sale at
broker's board, on a securities exchange, at one or more of Secured Party's
places of business or elsewhere, shall state the board, exchange or other
location at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral,
or that portion thereof so being sold, will first be offered for sale at such
location. Such notice, in case of a private sale, shall state only the date on
or after which such sale may be made. Any such notice given as aforesaid shall
be deemed to be reasonable notification.
Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times
within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as Secured Party may
fix in the notice of such sale. At any sale the Collateral may be sold in one
lot as an entirety or in parts, as Secured Party may determine. Secured Party
shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to any such notice. Secured
Party may, without notice or publication, adjourn 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 on
credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by Secured
Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Secured
Party shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to
take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure,
such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.
In no event shall any person be permitted to purchase any
Collateral unless such person agrees to execute a joinder agreement to become a
party to that certain Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement dated August
8, 2000, among XM, the Company and the other parties thereto.
Secured Party, 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 its lien or security interest arising from this Agreement and sell the
Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or
courts of competent jurisdiction.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Secured Party or
its nominee shall have the right, upon not less than one (1) day's notice to
Pledgor, to exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or
any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any shares of the
Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including, without
limitation, the right to exchange, at its discretion, any or all of the
Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or
other readjustment of XM, or upon the exercise by XM of any right, privilege or
option pertaining to any such shares of the Collateral, and, in connection
therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Collateral with any
committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon
such terms and conditions as Secured Party may determine.
On any sale of the Collateral, Secured Party is hereby
authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such
sale that it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any
violation of applicable law or in order to obtain any required approval of the
purchaser or purchasers by any governmental regulatory authority or officer or
court.
It is expressly understood and agreed by Pledgor that Secured
Party may exercise its rights under any other document providing security for
the Secured Obligations without exercising its rights or affecting the security
provided hereunder, and it is further understood and agreed by Pledgor that
Secured Party may proceed against all or any portion or portions of the
Collateral and all other collateral securing the Secured Obligations in such
order and at such time as Secured Party, in its sole discretion, sees fit; and
Pledgor hereby expressly waives any rights under the doctrine of marshalling of
assets.
Compliance with the foregoing procedures shall result in such
sale or disposition being considered or deemed to have been made in a
commercially reasonable manner.
4(b) Each of the rights, powers, and remedies provided herein,
in any Investment Documents or in any other document providing security for the
Secured Obligations or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition
to every other right, power or remedy provided for herein or therein or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. The exercise
of any such right, power or remedy shall not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise of any or all other such rights, powers or remedies. No notice to or
demand on Pledgor in any case shall entitle Pledgor to any other notice or
demand in similar or other circumstances.
4(c) The proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt,
appropriation, realization or sale as aforesaid shall be applied by Secured
Party in the following order:
(i) First, to the payment of all costs and
expenses of every kind incurred by Secured Party in connection therewith or
incidental to the care, safekeeping or otherwise of any of the Collateral,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses;
(ii) Second, to the payment of any amounts due
under the Secured Obligations; and
(iii) Finally, to the payment to TD on behalf of
the Banks and the Guarantors, unless Secured Party has received notice from TD
that it is no longer entitled to the same under the Term Loan Security
Agreements, in which event to Pledgor, of any surplus then remaining from such
proceeds, unless otherwise required by law or directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction.
