interests granted hereby.
6. Administration of the Collateral and Valuation of the
Securities.
(a) Valuation of Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall
determine as of 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Business Day whether the

Insufficiency Determination or Collateral Event of Default shall have occurred
and, from and after any substitution of U.S. Government Securities for pledged
Class A Common Stock or Marketable Securities pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 6, shall determine the Pledge Value and the Pledge Value Requirement on
each Business Day and shall provide written notice of the Pledge Value and the
Pledge Value Requirement, in the form of Exhibit A, to the Pledgor.
(b) Substitution of Collateral. Pledgor may substitute
Collateral in accordance with the following provisions:
(1) Unless an Event of Default or a failure by the Pledgor to

occurred and is continuing, the Pledgor shall have the right at any
time and from time to time to deposit Eligible Collateral with the
Collateral Agent in substitution for Pledged Items previously deposited
hereunder

required under Section 6(d) and any other actions necessary to create
for the benefit of the Collateral Agent a valid, first priority
perfected security interest in, and a first lien upon, such Eligible
Collateral deposited with the Collateral Agent in substitution for
Prior Collateral.
(3) No such substitution shall be made unless and until the
Collateral Agent shall have determined that the aggregate Pledge Value
of all of the Collateral at the time of such proposed substitution,
after giving effect to the proposed substitution, shall at least equal
the Pledge Value Requirement.
(c) Additional Collateral. The Pledgor may pledge additional
Collateral hereunder at any time.
-12-
Concurrently with the delivery of any additional Eligible Collateral, the
Pledgor shall deliver (i) a certificate of the Pledgor substantially in the form
of Exhibit C hereto and dated the date of such delivery, (A) identifying the
additional items of Eligible Collateral being pledged and (B) certifying that
with respect to such items of additional Eligible Collateral the representations
and warranties contained in such Exhibit C hereto are true and correct on and as
of the date thereof and (ii) an opinion, dated the date of such delivery, of
counsel addressed to the Collateral Agent confirming the representations
contained in the second sentence of paragraph 2(b) of Exhibit C hereto. The
Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees to take all actions required under Section
6(d) and any other actions necessary to create for the benefit of the Collateral
Agent a valid, first priority perfected security interest in, and a first lien
upon, such additional Eligible Collateral.
(d) Delivery of Collateral. The Pledgor shall deliver the
Collateral to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the following provisions:
(1) Pledged Class A Common Stock. In the case of Collateral
consisting of Class A Common Stock, by delivery to the Collateral Agent
of Class A Common Stock, registered in the name of the Collateral Agent
or its nominee or duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers
duly executed in blank;
(2) Pledged U.S. Government Securities. In the case of
Collateral consisting of U.S. Government Securities, by transfer
thereof through the Book Entry System of the Federal Reserve System to
the account of the Collateral Agent or to an account (other than an
account of the Pledgor) designated by the Collateral Agent; and
(3) Pledged Marketable Securities. In the case of Collateral
consisting of Marketable Securities, by delivery of certificates
evidencing such Marketable Securities, registered in the name of the
Collateral Agent or its nominee, together with undated stock
-13-
powers with respect thereto duly endorsed in blank, or, if such
Marketable Securities are not issuable in certificated form but are
held in book entry form by The Depository Trust Company, by transfer to
an account of the Collateral Agent or to an account (other than an
account of the Pledgor) designated by the Collateral Agent with The
Depository Trust Company. Each such delivery of Marketable Securities
shall be accompanied by an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent that the Collateral Agent has obtained a valid, first
priority perfected security interest in, and a first lien upon, such
Marketable Securities.
Upon delivery of any Pledged Item under this Collateral Agreement, the
Collateral Agent shall examine such Pledged Item and any opinions and
certificates delivered pursuant to Sections 6(b) or (c) or otherwise pursuant to
the terms hereof in connection therewith to determine that they comply as to
form with the requirements for Eligible Collateral. The Pledgor hereby
designates the Collateral Agent as the person in whose name any Collateral held
in book entry form in the Federal Reserve System shall be registered.
(e) Insufficiency Determination.
(1) If at 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day
the Collateral Agent determines that the aggregate Pledge Value of the
Collateral is less than the Pledge Value Requirement (any such determination, an
"Insufficiency Determination"), the Collateral Agent shall promptly notify the
Pledgor of such determination by telephone call to an Authorized Representative
of the Pledgor followed by a written confirmation of such call.
(2) If, by 4:00 p.m., New York City time on the next Business
Day following the day on which telephonic notice shall have been given pursuant
to the preceding paragraph (e)(1), the Pledgor shall have failed to deliver, in
the manner set forth in paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 6, sufficient
additional Eligible Collateral so that, after giving effect to such delivery,
the aggregate Pledge Value of the Collateral, as of such next business
-14-
day, is at least equal to the Pledge Value Requirement, then (x) the Collateral
Requirement with respect to any U.S. Government Securities pledged hereunder
(other than in respect of Cash Delivery Obligations) shall be increased from
150% to 200%, and (y) unless a Collateral Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall:
(i) commence sales, in the manner described in paragraph (3)
below, of such portion of the Collateral consisting of U.S. Government
Securities as may be required to be sold in order to generate proceeds
sufficient to purchase Class A Common Stock or, after a Reorganization
Event, Marketable Securities, as described in the following clause
(ii); and
(ii) commence purchases, in the manner described in paragraph
(3) below, of Class A Common Stock or, after a Reorganization Event,
Marketable Securities, in an amount sufficient to cause the aggregate
Pledge Value of the Collateral to be at least equal to the Pledge Value
Requirement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall discontinue sales and
purchases pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), respectively, if at
any time a Collateral Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
The Collateral Agent shall determine the Market Value and the Pledge Value of
the Collateral after each purchase of Class A Common Stock or Marketable
Securities pursuant to the preceding clause (ii) in order to determine whether
the Pledge Value Requirement is met and whether a Collateral Event of Default
has occurred. Solely for purposes of such calculation, the Market Value of the
Class A Common Stock or Marketable Securities shall be: (A) the most recent
sales price as reported in the composite transactions for the principal
securities exchange on which the Class A Common Stock or Marketable Securities,
as the case may be, are then listed or, if such securities are not so listed,
the last quoted ask price for such securities in the over-the-counter market as
reported by The NASDAQ National Market or, if not so reported, by the National
-15-
Quotation Bureau or a similar organization; or (B) if higher, in the case of
Class A Common Stock, the most recent available Closing Price.
A "Collateral Event of Default" shall mean, at any time, the
occurrence of any of the following: (A) if no U.S. Government Securities shall
be pledged as substitute Collateral at such time, failure of the aggregate
Market Value of the Collateral to equal or exceed the Pledge Value Requirement;
(B) if any U.S. Government Securities shall be pledged as substitute Collateral
at such time, failure of the Market Value of any U.S. Government Securities
pledged at such time (not including any U.S. Government Securities pledged in
respect of Cash Delivery Obligations at such time) to have an aggregate Market
Value of at least 105% of the Market Value of a number of shares of Class A
Common Stock (or, from and after any Reorganization Event, Marketable
Securities) equal to (x) the Maximum Deliverable Number thereof minus (y) the
number thereof pledged as Collateral hereunder at such time; or (C) from and
after any Reorganization Event in which consideration other than Marketable
Securities shall have been delivered, failure of the U.S. Government Securities
pledged in respect of Cash Delivery Obligations to have an aggregate Market
Value at least equal to 105% of the Cash Delivery Obligations at such time, if,
in the case of a failure described in this clause (C), such failure shall
continue to be in effect at 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the next Business
Day following the day on which telephonic notice in respect thereof shall have
been given pursuant to paragraph (e)(1) above. For purposes of this Agreement,
the portion of any pledged U.S. Government Securities that shall be deemed to be
in respect of Cash Delivery Obligations at any time shall be a portion having a
Market Value equal to 105% of the Cash Delivery Obligations at such time (or, if
less, the aggregate Market Value of all U.S. Government Securities pledged at
such time).
(3) Collateral sold and Class A Common Stock or shares of
Marketable Securities purchased by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the
preceding paragraphs (e)(1) and (2) may be sold and purchased on any securities
exchange or in
-16-
any over-the-counter market or in any private purchase transaction, and at such
price or prices, in each case as the Collateral Agent may deem satisfactory. The
Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will execute and deliver such documents and
take such other action as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable in
order that any such sales and purchases may be made in compliance with law.
(f) Release of Excess Collateral. If on any Business Day the
Collateral Agent determines that the aggregate Pledge Value of the Pledgor's
Eligible Collateral exceeds the Pledge Value Requirement and no Event of Default
or failure by the Pledgor to meet any of its obligations under Sections 5 or 6
hereof has occurred and is continuing, the Pledgor may obtain the release from
the Lien hereof of any Collateral having an aggregate Pledge Value on such
Business Day less than or equal to such excess, upon delivery to the Collateral
Agent of a written notice from an Authorized Representative of the Pledgor
indicating the items of Collateral to be released. Such Collateral shall be
released only after the Collateral Agent shall have determined that the
aggregate Pledge Value of all of the Collateral remaining after such release as
determined on such Business Day is at least equal to the Pledge Value
Requirement.
(g) Delivery of Purchase Agreement Consideration. On the
Exchange Date, unless (i) a Reorganization Event shall have occurred prior
thereto or (ii) Seller shall have elected the Cash Settlement Alternative
pursuant to Section 1.3(d) of the Contract and made the cash payment required by
that Section, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Trust Class A Common
Stock then held by it hereunder representing the number of shares of Class A
Common Stock then required to be delivered under the Purchase Agreement. If a
Reorganization Event shall have occurred prior to the Exchange Date, then, (A)
if the consideration received by holders of Class A Common Stock in such
Reorganization Event does not include Marketable Securities, the Collateral
Agent shall deliver to the Trust all cash or other assets then held by the
Collateral Agent and required to be delivered under the Purchase Agreement; and
(B) in any other case, if
-17-
so instructed by the Pledgor by the close of business on the Business Day
preceding the Exchange Date, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Trust, to
the extent permitted to be delivered in lieu of cash required to be delivered on
such date under Section 6.2 of the Purchase Agreement, the Marketable Securities
then held by the Collateral Agent hereunder. Upon such delivery, the Trust shall
hold such Class A Common Stock or Marketable Securities, as the case may be,
absolutely and free from any claim or right whatsoever.
(h) Investment of Cash Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall
invest any cash received by it pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Purchase Agreement
in U.S. Treasury Securities maturing on or before June __, 2001.
7. Income and Voting Rights on Collateral.
(a) Unless an Event of Default or failure by the Pledgor to
meet any of its obligations under Section 5(b) or (c) hereof has occurred and is
continuing, the Pledgor shall be entitled to receive for its own account all
dividends, interest and, if any, principal and premium relating to all of the
Collateral, unless the payment thereof to the Pledgor would reduce the aggregate
Pledge Value of the Collateral below the Pledge Value Requirement. The
Collateral Agent agrees to remit to the Pledgor on the Business Day received or
the first Business Day thereafter all such payments received by it. If an Event
of Default or failure by the Pledgor to meet any of its obligations under
Section 5(b) or (c) hereof has occurred and is continuing, all such payments
made or accrued after and during the continuance of such default or failure
shall be retained by the Collateral Agent, and any such payments which are
received by the Pledgor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Trust,
shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgor and shall forthwith be paid
over to the Collateral Agent. Any such payments so retained by, or paid over to,
the Collateral Agent shall be held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral
hereunder.
-18-
(b) Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Pledgor shall have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give
consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to the Collateral, and the
Collateral Agent shall, upon receiving a written request from the Pledgor,
deliver to the Pledgor or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of
attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any of the
Collateral which is registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its
nominee as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Collateral Agent shall have the right to the extent permitted by law, and
the Pledgor shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
give effect to such right, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and
waivers, and take any other action with respect to any or all of the Collateral
with the same force and effect as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute and
sole owner thereof.
8. Remedies upon Events of Default.
(a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise on behalf of the Trust all the
rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the
jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) and, in addition, without being
required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by
mandatory provisions of law, shall: (i) deliver all Collateral consisting of
Class A Common Stock or Marketable Securities (but not, in either case, in
excess of the number of shares thereof deliverable under the Purchase Agreement
at such time) to the Trust on the date of the Acceleration Notice relating to
such Event of Default (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in
clause (iii) or (iv) of the definition thereof, on the Exchange Date) (in either
case, the "Delivery Date"), whereupon the Trust shall hold such Class A Common
Stock or Marketable Securities absolutely free from any claim or
-19-
right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the
Pledgor which may be waived, and the Pledgor, to the extent permitted by law,
hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it
has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted; and (ii) if
such delivery shall be insufficient to satisfy in full all of the obligations of
Pledgor under the Purchase Agreement, sell all of the remaining Collateral, or
such lesser portion thereof as may be necessary to generate proceeds sufficient
to satisfy in full all of the obligations of Pledgor under the Purchase
Agreement, at public or private sale or at any broker's board or on any
securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such
price or prices as the Collateral Agent may deem satisfactory. The Pledgor
covenants and agrees that it will execute and deliver such documents and take
such other action as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary or
advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law. Upon
any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and
transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any
such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold absolutely and free from any claim
or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the
Pledgor which may be waived, and the Pledgor, to the extent permitted by law,
hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it
has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The notice (if
any) of such sale required by Article 9 of the UCC shall (1) in case of a public
sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (2) in case of sale at a
broker's board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which
such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or the portion
thereof so being sold, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange,
and (3) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may
be consummated. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within
ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may
fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in
one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may
determine.
-20-
The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to
any such notice. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication,
adjourn any public or private 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 the Collateral Agent until
the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Collateral Agent
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. The Collateral Agent, 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 interests and sell the
Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or
courts of competent jurisdiction.
(b) Power of Attorney. Upon any delivery or sale of all or any
part of any Collateral made either under the power of delivery or sale given
hereunder or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for
foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Collateral Agreement, the
Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of
the Pledgor, in the name and stead of the Pledgor, to make all necessary deeds,
bills of sale and instruments of assignment, transfer or conveyance of the
property thus delivered or sold. For that purpose the Collateral Agent may
execute all such documents and instruments. This power of attorney shall be
deemed coupled with an interest, and the Pledgor hereby ratifies and confirms
all that its attorneys acting under such power, or such attorneys' successors or
agents, shall lawfully do by virtue of this Collateral Agreement. If so
requested by the Collateral Agent, by the Trustees or by any purchaser of the
Collateral or a portion thereof, the Pledgor shall further ratify and confirm
any such delivery or sale by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent,
to the Trustees or to such purchaser or purchasers at the expense of the
-21-
Pledgor all proper deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment, conveyance
of transfer and releases as may be designated in any such request.
(c) Application of Collateral and Proceeds. In the case of an
Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may proceed to realize upon the security
interest in the Collateral against any one or more of the types of Collateral,
at any one time, as the Collateral Agent shall determine in its sole discretion
subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 8. The proceeds of any sale
of, or other realization upon, or other receipt from, any of the remaining
Collateral shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in the following order of
priorities:
first, to the payment to the Trust of an amount equal to: (A)
the aggregate Market Value of a number of shares of Class A Common
Stock equal to (1) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock
required to be delivered under the Purchase Agreement on the Delivery
Date minus (2) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock delivered
by the Collateral Agent to the Trust on the Delivery Date as described
above; or (B) from and after a Reorganization Event, the sum of (1) the
Cash Delivery Obligations on the Delivery Date and (2) the aggregate
Market Value on the Delivery Date of a number of Marketable Securities
equal to (x) the number thereof permitted to be delivered on the
Delivery Date under Section 6.2 of the Purchase Agreement minus (y) the
number thereof delivered by the Collateral Agent to the Trust on the
Delivery Date as described above;
second, to the payment to the Collateral Agent of the expenses
of such sale or other realization, including reasonable compensation to
the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses,
liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Collateral Agent in
connection therewith, including brokerage fees in connection with the
sale by the Collateral Agent of any Pledged Item; and
-22-
finally, if all of the obligations of the Pledgor hereunder
and under the Purchase Agreement have been fully discharged or
sufficient funds have been set aside by the Collateral Agent at the
request of the Pledgor for the discharge thereof, any remaining
proceeds shall be released to the Pledgor.
9. The Collateral Agent.
The Collateral Agent accepts its duties and responsibilities
hereunder as agent for the Trust, on and subject to the following terms and
conditions:
(a) Performance of Duties. The Collateral Agent undertakes to
perform such duties and only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and,
beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the performance of such duties, no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Collateral Agreement
against the Collateral Agent. No provision hereof shall be construed to relieve
the Collateral Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent action,
grossly negligent failure to act or its own wilful misconduct, subject to the
following:
(1) The Collateral Agent may consult with counsel, and the
advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of an action taken or suffered
hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion
of counsel.
(2) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable with respect to
any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith (i)
reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or
rights or powers conferred on it by this Collateral Agreement or (ii)
in accordance with any direction or request of the Trustees.
(3) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of
judgment made in good faith by any of its
-23-
officers, unless the Collateral Agent was grossly negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts.
(4) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Collateral
Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any note, notice,
resolution, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, teletype
message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper
Person or Persons.
(5) No provision of this Collateral Agreement shall require
the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it
shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such
funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it.
(6) The Collateral Agent may perform any duties hereunder
either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and the
Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care
by it hereunder. In furtherance thereof, any subsidiary owned or
controlled by the Collateral Agent, or its successors, as agent for the
Collateral Agent, may perform any or all of the duties of the
Collateral Agent relating to the valuation of securities and other
instruments constituting Collateral hereunder.
(7) In no event shall the Collateral Agent be personally
liable for any taxes or other governmental charges imposed upon or in
respect of (i) the collateral or (ii) the income or other distributions
thereon.
(8) Unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received
notice from the Pledgor, or unless and
-24-
until a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have actual
knowledge to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to
deem and treat all Collateral delivered to it hereunder as Eligible
Collateral hereunder, provided that the Collateral Agent has carried
out the duties specified in Section 6 with respect to such Collateral
at the time of delivery thereof.
The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the correctness of the
recitals and statements herein which are made by the Pledgor or for any
statement or certificate delivered by the Pledgor pursuant hereto. Except as
specifically provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for
the validity, sufficiency, collectibility or marketability of any Collateral
given to or held by it hereunder or for the validity or sufficiency of the
Purchase Agreement or the Lien on the Collateral purported to be created hereby.
(b) Knowledge. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge of any Event of Default (except a Collateral Event of Default),
unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have actual
knowledge thereof or shall have received written notice thereof.
(c) Merger. Any corporation or association into which the
Collateral Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be
consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its agency business and assets
as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association
resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to
which it is a party, shall be and become a successor Collateral Agent hereunder
and vested with all of the title to the Collateral and all of the powers,
discretions, immunities, privileges and other matters as was its predecessor
without, except as provided above, the execution or filing of any instrument or
any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto,
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
-25-
(d) Resignation. The Collateral Agent and any successor
Collateral Agent may at any time resign by giving thirty days' written notice by
registered or certified mail to the Pledgor and notice to the Trust in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10(d) hereof. Such resignation shall
take effect upon the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent by the Trust.
(e) Removal. The Collateral Agent may be removed at any time
by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the
Collateral Agent and to the Pledgor and signed by the Trust.
(f) Appointment of Successor. (1) If the Collateral Agent
hereunder shall resign or be removed, or be dissolved or shall be in the course
of dissolution or liquidation or otherwise become incapable of action hereunder,
or if it shall be taken under the control of any public officer or officers or
of a receiver appointed by a court, a successor may be appointed by the Trust by
an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the Trust or by its
attorneys in fact fully authorized. A copy of such instrument or concurrent
instruments shall be sent by registered mail to the Pledgor.
(2) Every such temporary or permanent successor Collateral
Agent appointed pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be a trust company or
bank in good standing, having a reported capital and surplus of not less than
$100,000,000 and capable of holding the Collateral in the State of New York, if
there be such an institution willing, qualified and able to accept the duties of
the Collateral Agent hereunder upon customary terms.
(g) Acceptance by Successor. Every temporary or permanent
successor Collateral Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver to its predecessor and also to the Pledgor an instrument in writing
accepting such appointment hereunder, whereupon such successor, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the estates,
properties, rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessors. Such
-26-
predecessor shall, nevertheless, on the written request of its successor or the
Pledgor, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all
the estates, properties, rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder. Every
predecessor Collateral Agent shall deliver all Collateral held by it as the
Collateral Agent hereunder to its successor. Should any instrument in writing
from the Pledgor be required by a successor Collateral Agent for more fully and
certainly vesting in such successor the estates, properties, rights, powers,
duties and obligations hereby vested or intended to be vested in the
predecessor, any and all such instruments in writing shall, at the request of
the temporary or permanent successor Collateral Agent, be forthwith executed,
acknowledged and delivered by the Pledgor.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Benefit of Agreement; Successors and Assigns. Whenever any
of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include
the successors and assigns of such party. All the covenants and agreements
herein contained by or on behalf of the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent shall
bind, and inure to the benefit of, their respective successors and assigns
whether so expressed or not, and shall be enforceable by and inure to the
benefit of the Trust and its successors and assigns.
(b) Separability. To the extent permitted by law, the
unenforceability or invalidity of any provision or provisions of this Collateral
Agreement shall not render any other provision or provisions herein contained
unenforceable or invalid.
(c) Amendments and Waivers. Any term, covenant, agreement or
condition of this Collateral Agreement may be amended or compliance therewith
may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retrospectively or prospectively) but only by a writing signed by the Collateral
Agent, the Pledgor and the Trust.
-27-
(d) Notices. (1) Any notice provided for herein, unless
otherwise specified, shall be in writing (including transmittals by telex or
telecopier) and shall be given to a party at the address set forth opposite such
party's name on the signature pages hereto or at such other address as may be
designated by notice duly given in accordance with this Section 10(d) to each
other party hereto.
(2) Each such notice given pursuant to paragraph (1) shall be
effective (i) if sent by certified mail (return receipt requested), 72 hours
after being deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid; (ii) if given
by telex or telecopier, when such telex or telecopied notice is transmitted; or
(iii) if given by any other means, when delivered at the address specified in
this Section 10(d).
(e) Governing Law. This Collateral Agreement shall in all
respects be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State
of New York; provided that as to Pledged Items located in any jurisdiction other
than the State of New York, the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Trust shall
have all of the rights to which a secured party is entitled under the laws of
such other jurisdiction.
(f) Counterparts. This Collateral Agreement may be executed,
acknowledged and delivered in any number of counterparts and such counterparts
taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
11. Termination of Collateral Agreement.
This Collateral Agreement and the rights hereby granted by the
Pledgor in the Collateral shall cease, terminate and be void upon fulfillment of
all of the obligations of the Pledgor under the Purchase Agreement, and the
Pledgor shall have no further liability hereunder upon such termination. Any
Collateral remaining at the time of such termination (including any Class A
Common Stock held following Seller's election of the Cash Settlement Alternative
and payment in respect thereof pursuant to the Contract) shall be fully released
and discharged from the
-28-
Lien hereof and delivered to the Pledgor by the Collateral Agent, all at the
expense of the Pledgor.
12. No Personal Liability of Trustees.
By executing this Collateral Agreement none of the Trustees
assumes any personal liability hereunder.
-29-

Agreement to be duly executed on its behalf, and the Collateral Agent has caused
