the right to be allotted shareholder options, the right to receive a
dividend in kind or stock dividend, but not the right to liquidation
proceeds upon liquidation of CA) shall remain with the Pledgor.

the right but not the obligation, after having given the Pledgor 5
(five) Business Days' prior notice thereof, to realize, on the open
market, the pledge without regard to the formalities provided in the
Swiss Federal Code on Debt Collection and Bankruptcy and to apply the

valid, perfected and enforceable first ranking security interest in
the Shares in favour of the Pledgee.
