of the Pledged Collateral, to the extent consistent with the Amended TA; and (ii) Pledgor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Collateral and to retain the power to control the direction, management and policies of the Company to the same
extent as Pledgor would if the Pledged Collateral were not pledged to Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that Secured Party shall receive, and Pledgor shall not be entitled to receive, (A) cash paid,
payable or otherwise distributed in redemption of, or in exchange for or in substitution of, any Pledged Collateral, or (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Pledged Collateral in connection with a
partial or total liquidation or dissolution of the Company or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in-surplus or any other type of recapitalization involving the Company; and provided further,
however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken or proxy given which would have the effect of impairing the position or interest of Secured Party in respect of the Pledged Collateral or which would
alter the voting rights with respect to the stock of the Company or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of this Agreement or any other Documents or which would permit or direct the Borrower to breach its agreements with Secured Party.
Secured Party shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to Pledgor all such proxies and other instruments as Pledgor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling Pledgor to exercise the voting and other rights which it
is entitled to exercise, and to receive distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain, pursuant to this subsection (a). 
  

 4.

following prior written notice to Pledgor to vote or consent to take any action with respect to the Pledged Collateral and exercise all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Pledged

the purposes of this Agreement. 
 (c) Distributions and other payments which are received by Pledgor but which it is not entitled to retain
as a result of the operation of subsection (A) or (B) shall be held in trust for the benefit of Secured Party, be segregated from the other property or funds of Pledgor, and be forthwith paid over or delivered to Secured Party in the same
form as so received. 
 (d) At any time and from time to time, Secured Party may cause any of the Pledged Collateral to be transferred into
its name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (subject to the revocable rights specified in subsection (a)). Secured Party shall at all times have the right to exchange uncertificated Pledged Collateral for certificated Pledged Collateral,
and to exchange certificated Pledged Collateral for certificates of larger or smaller denominations, for any purpose consistent with this Agreement. 
 (e) For the purpose of enabling Secured Party to exercise its rights under this Section 3 or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, Pledgor hereby (i) constitutes and appoints Secured Party (and any of
Secured Party’s officers, employees or agents designated by Secured Party) its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority to execute any notice, assignment, endorsement or other instrument or document, and to do any and all
acts and things for and on behalf of Pledgor, which Secured Party may deem necessary or desirable to protect, collect, realize upon and preserve the Pledged Collateral, to enforce Secured Party’s rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral
and to accomplish the purposes hereof, and (ii) revokes all previous proxies with regard to the Pledged Collateral and appoints Secured Party as its proxyholder with respect to the Pledged Collateral to attend and vote at any and all meetings
of the shareholders of the Company held on or after the date of this proxy and prior to the termination hereof, with full power of substitution to do so and agrees, if so requested, to execute or cause to be executed appropriate proxies therefor.
Each such appointment is coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as the Obligations have not been paid and performed in full. Pledgor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that Secured Party shall lawfully and in good faith
do or cause to be done by virtue of and in compliance with this Section. 
  

 5. 








 (f) Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, Secured Party shall have no duty to
exercise any of the rights, privileges or powers afforded to it and shall not be responsible to Pledgor or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the
Pledged Collateral while held hereunder and the accounting for moneys actually received by Secured Party hereunder, Secured Party shall have no duty or liability to exercise or preserve any rights, privileges or powers pertaining to the Pledged
Collateral.

up its affairs, shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, shall become subject to control by a receiver, trustee or other custodian, or
shall permit or suffer to occur any exercise of remedies by another person or entity such as a creditor or governmental authority that is likely to have a material adverse affect either (i) on Secured Party’s ability to receive the benefit

the same or different times, at any exchange, brokers’ board or elsewhere, by public or private sale, and at such times and on such terms, as Secured Party shall determine; provided, however, that Pledgor shall be credited with
the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by Secured Party in cash. Secured Party shall give Pledgor such notice of any private or public sales as may be required by the UCC or other applicable law. Pledgor recognizes
that Secured Party may be unable to make a public sale of any or all of the 

  

 8. 








 
Pledged Collateral, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted
group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale. Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such
private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption Pledgor hereby releases to the extent permitted by law. 
 (b) The cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of Pledged Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect
of the Pledged Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations. Any surplus thereof which exists after payment and performance in full of the Obligations shall be promptly
paid over to Pledgor or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the UCC or other applicable law. Pledgor shall remain liable to Secured Party for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Pledged Collateral.

 (c) Pledgor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) any right of redemption with respect to the Pledged Collateral,
whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Pledged Collateral or other collateral or security for the Obligations; (ii) any right to require Secured Party (A) to proceed against any Person,
(B) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Obligations, (C) to pursue any remedy in Secured Party’s power, or (D) to make or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests,
notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral; and (iii) all claims, damages, and demands against Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds of any
sale of the Pledged Collateral. 
 (d) Pledgor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and
shall not be impaired or affected by, nor shall Pledgor be exonerated or discharged by, (A) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, assignment for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, winding up or
dissolution of Company, Pledgor, any guarantor or any other Person; (B) any limitation, discharge, or cessation of the liability of Company or any Person for any Obligations due to any statute, regulation or rule of law, or any invalidity or
unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Obligations; (C) any merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of Company, Pledgor or any guarantor or other Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any or
all of the assets or shares of Company, Pledgor, any guarantor or other Person; (D) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Secured Party’s interests in and rights under the Documents; (E) any claim, defense,
counterclaim or setoff, other than that of prior performance, that Company, Pledgor, any guarantor or other Person may have or assert, including any defense of incapacity or lack of corporate or other authority to execute or deliver any Document or
this Agreement or any other document related thereto; (F) any direction of application of payment to Company, Pledgor, any guarantor or other Person; and (G) Secured Party’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or
inaction in any bankruptcy case related to the Obligations. 
  

 9. 








 (e) [THIRD PARTY PLEDGOR PROVISIONS OMITTED]. 
 (f) Pledgor waives and agrees not to assert: (A) any right to require Secured Party to proceed against any other Person, to proceed against or
exhaust any collateral or other security held for the Obligations, to give notice of or institute any public or private sale, foreclosure, or other disposition of any collateral or security for the Obligations, including, without limitation, to
comply with applicable provisions of the UCC or any equivalent provision of any other applicable law in connection with the sale, foreclosure, or other disposition of any collateral or to pursue any other right, remedy, power or privilege of Secured
Party whatsoever, or give Pledgor any other notice with respect to the foregoing; (B) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Obligations ; and (C) to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law which may conflict with the terms of this Agreement or any Document. 
 (g) Pledgor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, modification, extension or accrual of the Obligations. The Obligations shall conclusively
be deemed to have been created, contracted, incurred and permitted to exist in reliance upon this Agreement. Pledgor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice of default, dishonor or nonpayment and all other
notices to or upon Pledgor or any other Person with respect to the Obligations. 
 (h) [THIRD PARTY PLEDGOR PROVISIONS OMITTED]. 

(i) [THIRD PARTY PLEDGOR PROVISIONS OMITTED]. 
 (j) Pledgor waives any right it may have to require Secured Party to pursue any third person for any of the Obligations. Secured Party may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the
Pledged Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Pledge Collateral. Secured Party may sell the Pledged Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Pledged
Collateral. Secured Party may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Pledged Collateral. If Secured Party sells any of the
Pledged Collateral upon credit, Pledgor will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Secured Party and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Pledged
Collateral, Secured Party may resell the Pledged Collateral, and Pledgor shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale.
