7.

Voting Rights.  During the term of this Pledge Agreement and until such time as this Pledge Agreement has terminated or Secured Party has exercised its rights under this Pledge Agreement to foreclose its security interest in the Collateral, Pledgor shall have the right to exercise any voting rights evidenced by, or relating to, the Collateral.




8.

Warrants and Options.  In the event that, during the term of this Pledge Agreement, subscription, warrants, dividends, or any other rights or option shall be issued in connection with the Collateral, such warrants, dividends, rights and options shall be immediately delivered to Secured Party to be held under the terms hereof in the same manner as the Collateral.




9.

Preservation of the Value of the Collateral and Reimbursement of Secured Party.  Pledgor shall pay all taxes, charges, and assessments against the Collateral and do all acts necessary to preserve and maintain the value thereof.  On failure of Pledgor so to do, Secured Party may make such payments on account thereof as (in Secured Party's discretion) is deemed desirable, and Pledgor shall reimburse Secured Party immediately on demand for any and all such payments expended by Secured Party in enforcing, collecting, and exercising its remedies hereunder.




10.

Default and Remedies.  




(a)

For purposes of this Agreement, “Event of Default” shall mean any one or more of the following events:




(i)

any default in the performance by the Company or the Pledgor of any of the Note Obligations or the Guarantee, as the case may be, after the expiration, without cure, of the cure period (but only if any such cure period is specifically provided in the Transaction Agreements and without any regard to any cure period if no such cure period is provided; it being specifically acknowledged by the Company and the Pledgor that all payment obligations are time of the essence obligations, with no cure periods provided), or 




(ii)

a breach by a Pledgor of any of such Pledgor’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Pledge Agreement.




(b)

During the term of this Pledge Agreement, the Secured Party shall have the following rights after any Event of Default and for so long as the Obligations are not satisfied in full:




(i)  the rights and remedies provided by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of New York (as said law may at any time be amended), except that the Secured Party waives any right to a deficiency pursuant to Section 9-608 thereof or otherwise;




(ii)  the right to receive and retain all dividends, payments and other distributions of any kind upon any or all of the Pledged Shares as additional Collateral;






(iii)  to the extent of the Lender’s Allocable Share of the Secured Party, the right to cause any or all of the Pledged Shares and all additional Collateral to be transferred to its own name and have such transfer recorded in any place or places deemed appropriate by Secured Party; and




(iv)  the right to sell, at a public or private sale, to the extent of the Lender’s Allocable Share of the Secured Party, the Collateral or any part thereof for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code (as such law may be amended from time to time); it being understood that one or more of the Secured Parties may, but shall not be required to, take such actions jointly.  Upon any such sale, Secured Party shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold.  Secured Party shall give the Pledgor not less than ten (10) days written notice of its intention to make any such sale.  Any such sale shall be held at such time or times during ordinary business hours and at such place or places as Secured Party may fix in the notice of such sale.  Secured Party may adjourn or cancel any 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 upon terms calling for payments in the future, any Collateral so sold may be retained by Secured Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but Secured Party shall incur no liability in the case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.  Secured Party, however, 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 interest and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction, the Pledgor having been given due notice of all such action.  Secured Party shall incur no liability as a result of a sale of the Collateral or any part thereof.

  

  

11.

Waiver.  Each of the Debtor and the Pledgor waives any right that it may have to require Secured Party to proceed against any other person, or proceed against or exhaust any other security, or pursue any other remedy Secured Party may have.

  

  

12.

Term of Agreement.  This Pledge Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the earlier of the payment in full of the Notes.  If the Notes are paid in full, the security interests in the relevant Collateral shall be deemed released, and any portion of the Collateral not transferred to or sold by any one or more Secured Parties shall be returned to the Pledgor (and for such purpose, delivery to Darrin Ocasio, Esq., of Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP of New York, NY shall deemed to comply with such return requirement).  Upon termination of this Pledge Agreement, the relevant Collateral shall be returned within five (5) Trading Days to Debtor or to the Pledgor, as contemplated above.






13.

(a)

The Agent is acting as agent for the Secured Parties solely for the administrative convenience of the Debtor, the Pledgor and the Secured Parties.




(b)

The Agent is authorized to execute and file any and all financing statements desired to be filed by the Secured Parties to reflect the security interest in the Collateral in any and all jurisdictions.  For such purposes, each of the Debtor and the Pledgor irrevocably appoints the Agent (acting by Samuel M. Krieger or Ronald Nussbaum, or either one of them), with full power of substitution to execute and file such financing statements naming the Debtor and the Pledgor as debtors thereon.
