The aforementioned rights and duties are subject to any Assignor’s right to abandon, drop or decline to maintain or renew any Domain Names or Domain Name Rights in the ordinary course of business.

                            5






appoints each Assignor as its agent for all matters referred to in the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 and agrees to execute any documents necessary to confirm such appointment.

Each Assignor shall have the right, with the consent of the Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to bring suit or other action in such Assignor’s own name to maintain and enforce the Domain Name Collateral, the Domain Name License Rights and the Domain Name Rights.  The Lender shall be required to join in such suit or action as may be necessary to assure such Assignor’s ability to bring and maintain any such suit or action in any proper forum so long as the Lender is completely satisfied that such joinder will not subject it to any risk of liability or if required by law or any order of any Court or tribunal.  To the extent Lender does not join in any proceeding, Lender shall cooperate to the extent reasonably required by Assignors for purposes of Assignors’ enforcement rights as they relate to the Domain Name Collateral.  Such Assignor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Lender for all damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, incurred by the Lender pursuant to this Section 6.

Assignors shall not take or fail to take any action, nor permit any action to be taken or not taken by others under their control, which would adversely affect the validity, grant or enforcement of any of the Domain Name Collateral other than Domain Name Rights and Domain Names dropped or not renewed in the ordinary course of business.


6.5.    Notification by Assignors.  Promptly upon obtaining knowledge thereof, each Assignor will notify the Lender in writing of the institution of, or any final adverse determination in, any proceeding by any Registry, ICANN or any similar office or agency of the United States or any foreign country, or any court, or any private registry or organization having authority over disputes with respect to domain names regarding the validity of any of the Domain Names or such Assignor’s rights, title or interests in and to any of the Domain Name Collateral, and of any event which does or reasonably could materially adversely affect the value of any of the Domain Name Collateral, the ability of such Assignor or the Lender to dispose of any of the Domain Name Collateral or the rights and remedies of the Lender in relation thereto (including but not limited to the levy of any legal process against any of the Domain Name Collateral).

At any such sale or other disposition, the Lender may, to the extent permitted under applicable law, purchase or license the whole or any part of the Domain Name Collateral or interests therein sold, licensed or otherwise disposed of.


8.    COLLATERAL PROTECTION.  


If any Assignor shall fail to do any act that it has covenanted to do hereunder, or if any representation or warranty of any Assignor shall be breached, the Lender, in its own name or that of any Assignor (in the sole discretion of the Lender), may (but shall not be obligated to) do such act or remedy such breach (or cause such act to be done or such breach to be remedied), and Assignors agree promptly to reimburse the Lender for any cost or expense incurred by the Lender in so doing.


9.    POWER OF ATTORNEY.  


If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Assignor does hereby make, constitute and appoint the Lender (and any officer or agent of the Lender as it may select in its exclusive discretion) as such Assignor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with the power to endorse such Assignor’s name on all applications, documents, papers and instruments necessary for the Lender, to use any of the Domain Name Collateral, to grant or issue any exclusive or nonexclusive license of any of the Domain Name Collateral to any third person, or to take any and all actions necessary for the Lender to assign, pledge, convey or otherwise transfer title in or dispose of the Domain Name Collateral or any part thereof or interest therein to any third person, and, in general, to execute and deliver any instruments or documents and do all other acts which such Assignor is obligated to execute and do hereunder.  Each Assignor hereby ratifies all that such attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof, and releases the Lender from any claims, liabilities, causes of action or demands arising out of or in connection with any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Lender under this power of attorney (except for the Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct).  This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for the duration of this Agreement.

12.    COURSE OF DEALING.


No course of dealing between the Assignors and the Lender, nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the Loan Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
