as necessary; to renew, extend or roll over any Collateral; and make demand and initiate actions to enforce any of the Obligations.  The Lender may take such action with respect to the Collateral as the Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to protect and preserve its interests in the Collateral.  The Lender shall also have and may exercise at any time all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and discretion of the Pledgor with respect to and under the Collateral, provided, however, the Lender shall have no right until an Event of Default has occurred to exercise any voting rights available to the Pledgor at any time the Collateral is held by the Lender solely as pledgee hereunder.  Except as limited above, all the rights, remedies, powers, privileges and discretion included in this paragraph may be exercised by the Lender whether or not any of the Obligations are then due and whether or not an Event of Default has occurred.  All powers conferred upon Lender by this Agreement, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, all Obligations are irrevocably paid in full and the Collateral is released.  The power of attorney shall not be affected by subsequent disability or incapacity of the Pledgor.  The Lender shall not be liable for any act or omission to act pursuant to this Paragraph except for any act or omission to act which is caused by the Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

6.    Further Assurances.  The Pledgor will from time to time execute and deliver to the Lender such documents, and take or cause to be taken, all such other further action, as the Lender may request in order to effect and confirm or vest more securely in the Lender all rights contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, to correct clerical errors) or to vest more fully in, or assure to the Lender the security interest in, the Collateral or to comply with applicable statute or law.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor authorizes the Lender to file financing statements, continuation statements or amendments, and any such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction.  The Lender may at any time and from time to time file financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto which contain any information required by Article 9 of the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or amendment, including whether the Pledgor is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to the Pledgor.  The Pledgor agrees to furnish any such information to the Lender promptly upon request.  In addition, the Pledgor shall at any time and from time to time take such steps as the Lender may reasonably request for the Lender (i) to obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, of any bailee having possession of any of the Collateral that the bailee holds such Collateral for the Lender, (ii) to obtain “control” of any Collateral comprised of investment property or deposit accounts (as such terms are defined in the Code), with any agreements establishing control to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, and (iii) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and priority of the Lender’s security interest in any of the Collateral and the preservation of its rights therein.  The Pledgor hereby constitutes the Lender its attorney-in-fact to execute and file all filings required or so requested for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed;  and such power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, all Obligations are irrevocably paid in full and the Collateral is released.

7.    Default.  If an Event of Default shall occur, at the election of the Lender, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand, except with

respect to Obligations payable on demand, which shall be due and payable on demand, whether or not an Event of Default has occurred.

The Lender is hereby authorized, at its election, after an Event of Default or after demand, without any further demand or notice except to such extent as notice may be required by applicable law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of the Collateral at public or private sale and/or enforce and collect the Collateral (including, without limitation, the liquidation of deposit accounts, debt instruments or securities and the exercise of conversion rights with respect to convertible securities, whether or not such instruments or securities have matured and whether or not any penalties or other charges are imposed on account of such action); and the Lender may also exercise any and all other rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code or which are otherwise accorded to it by applicable law, all as the Lender may determine.  If notice of a sale or other action by the Lender is required by applicable law, the Pledgor agrees that ten (10) days’ written notice to the Pledgor, or the shortest period of written notice permitted by law, whichever is longer, shall be sufficient notice; and that to the extent permitted by law, the Lender, its officers, attorneys and agents may bid and become purchasers at any such sale, if public, and may purchase at any private sale any of the Collateral that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market or which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations.  Any sale (public or private) shall be free from any right of redemption, which the Pledgor hereby waives and releases.  No purchaser at any sale (public or private) shall be responsible for the application of the purchase money.  Any balance of the net proceeds of sale remaining after paying all Obligations of the Pledgor to the Lender shall be returned to the Pledgor or to such other party as may be legally entitled thereto; and if there is a deficiency, the Pledgor shall be responsible for the same, with interest.  The Pledgor acknowledges that any exercise by the Lender of the Lender’s rights upon default may be subject to compliance by the Lender with any statute, regulation, ordinance, directive or order of any Federal, state, municipal or other governmental authority, and may impose, without limitation, any of the foregoing restricting the sale of securities.  The Lender, in its sole discretion at any such sale, may restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intentions, and may impose, without limitation, a requirement that the persons making such purchases represent and agree, to the satisfaction of the Lender, that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  The proceeds of any collection or of any sale or disposition of the Collateral held pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied towards the Obligations in such order and manner as the Lender determines in its sole discretion, any statute, custom or usage to the contrary notwithstanding.

8.    Safe Custody and Exclusivity.  The Lender shall have no duty as to the Collateral or protection of the Collateral or any income or distribution thereon, beyond the safe custody of such of the Collateral as may come into the possession of the Lender, and shall have no duty as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.  The Lender’s Rights and Remedies (as defined herein) may be exercised without resort or regard to any other source of satisfaction of the Obligations.

9.    Waivers.  The Pledgor waives notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of nonpayment, demand, presentment, protest or notice of protest of the Obligations, and all other notices, consents to any renewals or extensions of time of payment thereof, and generally waives any and all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof.  No course

of dealing and no delay or omission of the Lender in exercising or enforcing any of its rights, powers, privileges, remedies, immunities or discretion (all of which are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Lender’s Rights and Remedies”) hereunder or under applicable law shall constitute a waiver thereof; and no waiver by the Lender of any default of the Pledgor hereunder or of any demand hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any other default hereunder or any other demand hereunder.  No term or provision hereof shall be waived, altered or modified except with the prior written consent of the Lender, which consent makes explicit reference to this Agreement.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no other agreement or transaction, of whatsoever nature, entered into between the Lender and the Pledgor at any time (whether before, during or after the effective date or tern’ of this Agreement) shall be construed in any particular way as a waiver, modification or limitation of any of the Lender’s Rights and Remedies under this Agreement (nor shall anything in this Agreement be construed as a waiver, modification or limitation of any of the Lender’s Rights and Remedies under any such other agreement or transaction) but all the Lender’s Rights and Remedies not only under the provisions of this Agreement but also under any such other agreement or transaction shall be cumulative and not alternative or exclusive, and may be exercised by the Lender at such time or times and in such order of preference as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine.

10.    Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or portion of such provision or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent be held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement (or the remainder of such provision) and the application thereof to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby.

11.    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute but one agreement.

12.    Complete Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding between and among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes, all prior proposals, negotiations, agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to such subject matter.

13.    Binding Effect of Agreement.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, and shall remain in full force and effect (and the Lender shall be entitled to rely thereon) until released in writing by the Lender.  The Lender may transfer and assign this Agreement and deliver the Collateral to the assignee, who shall thereupon have all of the Lender’s Rights and Remedies; and the Lender shall then be relieved and discharged of any responsibility or liability with respect to this Agreement and the Collateral.  Except as expressly provided herein or in the other Loan Documents, nothing, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party, other than the parties hereto, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

14.    Notices.  Any notices under or pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed duly received and effective if delivered in hand to any officer or agent of the Pledgor or Lender, or if mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Pledgor or Lender at the address set forth in this Agreement or as any party may from time to time designate by written notice to the other party.
