2.             INDEBTEDNESS.


 


(a)            The Collateral
secures and will secure all Indebtedness of (i) Prospect Medical Group, Inc.,
a California professional corporation (“PMG”), (ii) Prospect
Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”) and (iii) PMS,
in each case, owed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  Each person or entity obligated under any
Indebtedness is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as a “Debtor”.

(i)            all “Obligations”

of the foregoing),


 


(ii)           all obligations
and liabilities of Pledgor to the Administrative Agent hereunder, and

or liabilities which are or may hereafter be “consumer credit” subject to the
disclosure requirements of the Federal Truth in Lending law or any regulation
promulgated thereunder.


 


3.             COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES.   Pledgor and each Debtor
covenant, represent and warrant that unless compliance is waived by the
Administrative Agent in writing:


 


(a)            Pledgor is the
legal and beneficial owner of all the Collateral free and clear of any and all
liens, encumbrances, or interests of any third parties other than the first
priority security interest of the Administrative Agent and the Second Priority
Lien (as defined in the Second Lien Credit Agreement) of the Second Lien
Administrative Agent, and will keep the Collateral free of

Collateral or designate a successor physician as the record holder of such
Collateral at any time (collectively, as each may be amended, the “Option
Agreement”).


 


(b)            Pledgor and
each Debtor shall, at PMG’s expense, take all actions necessary or advisable
from time to time to maintain the first priority and perfection of the security
interest of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral and shall not take any
actions that would alter, impair or eliminate said priority or perfection.


 


(c)            Pledgor and
each Debtor agree to cause PMG, and PMG agrees, to pay prior to delinquency all
taxes, charges, liens and assessments against the Collateral, and upon the
failure of Pledgor to do so, the Administrative Agent at its option may pay any
of them and shall be the sole judge of the legality or validity thereof and the
amount necessary to discharge the same.


 


(d)            If any of the
Collateral is margin stock as defined in Regulation U promulgated by the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States (“FRB”),
Pledgor will provide the Administrative Agent a properly executed Form U-1
Purpose Statement. The Administrative Agent and Pledgor will comply with the
requirements and restrictions imposed by Regulation U.


 


(e)            Pledgor’s exact

Agent in writing in the event that any of the foregoing representations and
warranties is no longer true and correct:


 


(a)            The Equity
Securities have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
non-assessable.


 


(b)            There are no
restrictions on the pledge of the Equity Securities by Pledgor to the
Administrative Agent nor on the sale of the Equity Securities by Pledgor or the
Administrative Agent (whether pursuant to securities laws or regulations or any
shareholder, lock-up or other similar agreement or insider trading rules of
the issuer).


 


5.             ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT APPOINTED
ATTORNEY IN FACT.  Upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Pledgor authorizes and
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as Pledgor’s true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full power of 


 


3

















 


substitution to take any
action and execute or otherwise authenticate any record or other documentation
that the Administrative Agent considers necessary or advisable to accomplish
the purposes of this Agreement, including but not limited to, the following
actions: (a) to endorse, receive, accept and collect all checks, drafts,
other payment orders and instruments representing or included in the Collateral
or representing any payment, dividend or distribution relating to any
Collateral or to take any other action to enforce, collect or compromise any of
the Collateral; (b) to transfer any Collateral (including converting
physical certificates to book-entry holdings) into the name of the
Administrative Agent or its nominee or any broker-dealer (which may be an

covering any Collateral on Pledgor’s behalf and as attorney-in-fact for Pledgor
in order to perfect the Administrative Agent’s first priority and continuing
security interest in the Collateral and in order to provide the Administrative
Agent with control of the Collateral, and Pledgor’s signature on this Agreement
or other authentication of this Agreement shall constitute an irrevocable
direction by Pledgor to any bank, custodian, broker dealer, any other
securities intermediary or commodity intermediary holding any Collateral or any
issuer of any letters of credit to comply with any instructions or entitlement
orders, of the Administrative Agent without further consent of Pledgor; (c) to
participate in any recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization,
consolidation, redemption, stock split, merger or liquidation of any issuer of
securities which constitute Collateral, and in connection therewith the
Administrative Agent may deposit or surrender control of the Collateral, accept
money or other property in exchange for the Collateral, and take such action as
it deems proper in connection therewith, and any money or property received on
account of or in exchange for the Collateral shall be applied to the
Indebtedness or held by the Administrative Agent thereafter as Collateral
pursuant to the provisions hereof; (d) to exercise any right, privilege or
option pertaining to any Collateral, but the Administrative Agent has no obligation
to do so; (e) to file any claims, take any actions or institute any
proceedings which the Administrative Agent determines to be necessary or
appropriate to collect or preserve the Collateral or to enforce the
Administrative Agent’s rights with respect to the Collateral; (f) to
execute in the name or otherwise authenticate on behalf of Pledgor any record
reasonably believed necessary or appropriate by the Administrative Agent for
compliance with laws, rules or regulations applicable to any Collateral,
or in connection with exercising the Administrative Agent’s rights under this
Agreement; (g) to file any financing statement relating to this Agreement;
(h) to make any compromise or settlement it deems desirable or proper with

Collateral hereunder that constitutes restricted or control securities under
the securities laws.  The foregoing
appointments are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall survive the
death or disability of Pledgor and shall not be revoked without the
Administrative Agent’s written consent. 
To the extent permitted by law, Pledgor hereby ratifies all said
attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do by virtue hereof.


 


6.             VOTING RIGHTS.


 


(a)            So long as no
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing and the Administrative
Agent has not delivered the notice specified in subsection (b) below,
Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual
rights pertaining to the Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not
inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any document or agreement
executed in connection herewith.


 


(b)            Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the option of

otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to subsection (a) above shall
cease, and the Administrative Agent shall thereupon have the sole right to
exercise such voting and other consensual rights.


 


4

















 


7.             EVENTS OF DEFAULT;
REMEDIES.


 


(a)            Any one or more
of the following shall be a default hereunder (each an, “Event of Default”):


 


(i)            An “Event of
Default” under the Credit Agreement (as such term is defined in the Credit
Agreement) occurs and is continuing.


 


(ii)           Pledgor or any
Debtor fails to pay any Indebtedness when due, after giving effect to any
applicable grace period.


 


(iii)          Pledgor or any
Debtor fails to cure a breach of any collateral maintenance provisions set
forth in this Agreement or in any agreement governing or executed or delivered
in connection with any Indebtedness within the applicable cure period specified
therein.


 


(iv)          Pledgor or any
Debtor breaches any term, provision, warranty or representation under this
Agreement not specifically referred to in subsection (a) of this Section or
breaches any term, provision, warranty or representation of the Credit
Agreement or any other agreement or instrument evidencing, securing or executed
or delivered in connection with the Indebtedness beyond any grace period
provided with respect thereto.


 


(v)           Any control
agreement covering any Collateral is breached, or any party to such control
agreement terminates or notifies the Administrative Agent or Pledgor of its
intention to terminate the control agreement or denies the enforceability of
the control agreement.


 


(vi)          Any involuntary
lien of any kind or character attaches to any of the Collateral.


 


(b)            If an Event of

following:


 


(i)            Declare any
Indebtedness immediately due and payable, without notice or demand.

regulations), sell all or any part of the Collateral at public or private sale
in accordance with the UCC, without advertisement, in such manner and order as
the Administrative Agent may elect.  The
Administrative Agent may purchase the Collateral for its own account at any
such sale.


 


5

















 


(v)           Enforce the
security interest of the Administrative Agent in any deposit account which is
part of the Collateral by applying such account to the Indebtedness.


 


(vi)          Exercise any
other remedy provided under this Agreement or by any applicable law.


 


(vii)         Comply with any
applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition
of the Collateral and such compliance will not be considered to affect
adversely the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the
Collateral.


 


(viii)        Sell the
Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral.  The Administrative Agent may specifically
disclaim any warranties of title or the like. 
This procedure will not be considered to affect adversely the commercial
reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral.


 


(ix)           If requested by
the Administrative Agent, Holdings, PMS and/or PMG will direct Pledgor (whether
pursuant to the Option Agreement or otherwise), or his estate, as the case may
be, to sell and Pledgor, or his estate, as the case may be, shall promptly sell
all (or any portion as may be directed by the Administrative Agent) of the
Collateral to such person(s) as Holdings, PMS and PMG shall in their
reasonable discretion direct, subject to the reasonable approval of
Administrative Agent (the “New Shareholder(s)”).  If requested by the Administrative Agent,
such New Shareholder(s) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent a pledge agreement and such other agreements, documents and instruments
as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may request evidencing or relating
to the Collateral, each in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.


 


8.             RIGHT TO CURE; LIMITATION ON
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S DUTIES.  If
Pledgor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Administrative
Agent may perform or cause performance of such agreement and the expenses of
the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by
the Debtors, on a joint and several basis, under Section 13.  Any powers conferred on the Administrative
Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall
not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  Except for reasonable care in the custody of
any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually
received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any
Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights
against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to
have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the
Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment
substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own
property, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
responsibility for (a) ascertaining, exercising or taking other action or
giving Pledgor notice with respect to subscription rights, calls, conversions,
exchanges, maturities, lenders or other matters relative to any Collateral,
whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of
such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against
any parties with respect to any Collateral. 
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any loss to the
Collateral resulting from acts of God, war, civil commotion, fire, earthquake,
or other disaster or for any other loss or damage to the Collateral except to
the extent such loss is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 


6

















 


9.             WAIVERS.  The Administrative Agent shall be under no
duty or obligation whatsoever and Pledgor waives any right to require the
Administrative Agent to (i) make or give any presentment, demands for
performances, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest or
notices of dishonor in connection with any obligations or evidences of
indebtedness held by the Administrative Agent as Collateral, or in connection
with any obligation or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in whole or
in part the Indebtedness, (ii) proceed against any person or entity, (iii) proceed
against or exhaust any collateral in any order and in any manner it so elects
or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s power.  Pledgor waives any defense arising by reason
of (i) any disability or other defense of any Debtor or any other person, (ii) the
cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Debtor or any other
person, (iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit
Agreement, any other document of consistence executed in connection herewith or
any other agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any Secured
Obligations, (iv) the insolvency of any Debtor or any other person or (v) any
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or
a discharge of, Pledgor.


 


Until
the Indebtedness is paid in full, Pledgor waives any right of subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution (contractual, statutory or
otherwise), including without limitation any claim or right of subrogation
under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the U.S. Code) or any successor statute,
arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement, and Pledgor waives
any right to enforce any remedy which the Administrative Agent now has or may
hereafter have against any Debtor or against any other person and waives any
benefit of and any right to participate in any Collateral or security
whatsoever now or hereafter held by the Administrative Agent.  If Pledgor is not also a Debtor with respect
to a specified Indebtedness, Pledgor authorizes the Administrative Agent
without notice or demand and without affecting Pledgor’s liability hereunder,
from time to time to:  (i) renew,
extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of or otherwise
change the terms of the Indebtedness or any part thereof, including increase or
decrease of the rate of interest thereon; (ii) take and hold security,
other than the Collateral, for the payment of the Indebtedness or any part
thereof, and exchange, enforce, waive and release the Collateral or any part
thereof or any such other security; (iii) apply the proceeds of any
Collateral to the Indebtedness in any order and in any manner it so elects and (iv) release
or substitute any Debtor or any one or more of them, or any of the endorsers or
guarantors of the Indebtedness or any part thereof, or any other parties
thereto and Pledgor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action
by the Administrative Agent which might in any manner or to any extent vary the
risks of Pledgor under this Agreement or which, but for this provision, might
operate as a discharge of Pledgor. 
Pledgor agrees that it is solely responsible for keeping itself informed
as to the financial condition of each Debtor and of all circumstances which
bear upon the risk of nonpayment or the risk of a margin call or liquidation of
the Collateral.


 


Pledgor
understands and acknowledges that if the Administrative Agent forecloses
judicially or nonjudicially against any real property security for the
Indebtedness, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any ability that Pledgor
may have to seek reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification from any
Debtor or others based on any right Pledgor may have of subrogation,
reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification for any amounts paid by Pledgor
under this Agreement.  Pledgor further understands
and acknowledges that in the absence of this paragraph, such potential
impairment or destruction of the Pledgor’s rights, if any, may entitle Pledgor
to assert a defense to this Agreement based on Section 580d of the
California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank v. Gradsky,
265 Cal.App.2d 40 (1968). By executing this Agreement, Pledgor freely,
irrevocably, and unconditionally: (i) waives and relinquishes that defense
and agrees that Pledgor will be fully liable under this Agreement even though
the Administrative Agent or any other person may foreclose, either by judicial
foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of trust securing the
Indebtedness; (ii) agrees that Pledgor will not assert that defense in any
action or proceeding which the Administrative Agent or any other person may
commence to enforce this Agreement; (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the
rights and defenses waived by Pledgor 


 


7

















 


in this Agreement include
any right or defense that the Pledgor may have had or be entitled to assert
based on or arising out of any one or more of Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726
of the California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2848 of the
California Civil Code; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that the
Administrative Agent and each other Lender is relying on this waiver in
creating the Indebtedness, and that this waiver is a material part of the
consideration which the Administrative Agent and each Lender is receiving for creating
the Indebtedness.


 


10.           TRANSFER, DELIVERY
AND RETURN OF COLLATERAL.


 


(a)            Pledgor shall
immediately deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent (or
the Securities Intermediary, if any) (i) any certificates or instruments
now or hereafter representing or evidencing Collateral and such certificates
and instruments shall be in suitable form for transfer without restriction or
stop order by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment in blank in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the same form as received (with any
necessary endorsement), all dividends and other distributions paid or payable
in cash in respect of any Collateral and any such amounts, if received by
Pledgor, shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent
and be segregated from the other property or funds of Pledgor.


 


(b)            The
Administrative Agent may at any time deliver the Collateral or any part thereof
to Pledgor and the receipt by Pledgor shall be a complete and full acquittance
for the Collateral so delivered, and the Administrative Agent shall thereafter
be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor.


 


(c)            Upon the
transfer of all or any part of the Indebtedness, the Administrative Agent may
transfer all or any part of the Collateral and shall be fully discharged
thereafter from all liability and responsibility with respect to such
Collateral so transferred, and the transferee shall be vested with all the
rights and powers of the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to such
Collateral so transferred; but with respect to any Collateral not so
transferred the Administrative Agent shall retain all rights and powers hereby
given.  Pledgor agrees that the
Administrative Agent may disclose to any prospective purchaser or transferee
and any purchaser or transferee of all or part of the Indebtedness any and all
information in the Administrative Agent’s possession concerning Pledgor, this
Agreement and the Collateral.


 


11.           CONTINUING AGREEMENT
AND POWERS.


 


(a)            This is a
continuing Agreement and all the rights, powers and remedies hereunder shall,
unless otherwise limited herein, apply to all past, present and future
Indebtedness of any Debtor or any one or more of them to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, including that arising under successive transactions
which shall either continue the Indebtedness, increase or decrease it, or from
time to time create new Indebtedness after all or any prior Indebtedness has
been satisfied, and notwithstanding the death, incapacity, cessation of
business, dissolution or bankruptcy of any Debtor or any one or more of them,
or any other event or proceeding affecting any Debtor or any one or more of
them.


 


(b)            Until all Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall
have no obligation to extend credit to any Debtor, the power of sale and all
other rights, powers and remedies granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder
shall continue to exist and may be exercised by the Administrative Agent at the
time specified hereunder irrespective of the fact that the Indebtedness or any
part thereof may have become barred by any 


 


8

















 


statute
of limitations, or that the personal liability of Debtor or any one or more of
them may have ceased.  Pledgor waives the
benefit of any statute of limitations as applied to this Agreement.


 


12.           SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default, if permitted by the Administrative Agent, some or all
of the Collateral may be held at a broker or other securities intermediary (the
“Securities Intermediary”). 
Pledgor shall pay to the Securities Intermediary any charges or costs
imposed by the Securities Intermediary. 
Pledgor at no time shall request that the Securities Intermediary
release any Collateral to Pledgor, except as expressly permitted by the
Administrative Agent.  The Administrative
Agent may require that Pledgor obtain a control agreement, signed by the
Securities Intermediary, in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative
Agent.  The Administrative Agent may, at
any time but in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any control
agreement, require the Securities Intermediary to do any or all of the
following: (a) disburse any or all of the Collateral to the Administrative
Agent; (b) allow the Administrative Agent (and not Pledgor) to exercise
any rights relating to the Collateral; (c) sell some or all of the
Collateral and remit the sales proceeds (less the Securities Intermediary’s
normal sales charge) to the Administrative Agent; and (d) buy and sell
Collateral only upon the instructions of the Administrative Agent (and not
Pledgor).  If the Administrative Agent
assigns or transfers its rights under this Agreement and the Administrative
Agent is the Securities Intermediary for any or all of the Collateral, Pledgor
agrees that the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, is irrevocably directed
by Pledgor to comply with instructions or entitlement orders with respect to
such Collateral originated by any assignee or transferee of this Agreement
without further consent of Pledgor.


 


13.           COSTS.  All advances, charges, costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by the Administrative
Agent in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or
in the enforcement thereof, and including the charges and expenses of the
Administrative Agent’s custody unit or of any Securities Intermediary, shall

Judicial Reference.  If any action or
proceeding is filed in a court of the State of California by or against any
party hereto in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, (a) the court shall, and is hereby

performance under this Agreement or any control agreement executed by the

court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified
person. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement.


 


17.           MISCELLANEOUS.


 


(a)            This Agreement (i) may
be waived, altered, modified or amended only by an instrument in writing, duly
executed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound thereby, and (ii) may
be executed in any number of identical counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original for all purposes and all of which constitute, collectively,
one agreement; but, in making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be
necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.  Any waiver, express or implied, of any
provision hereof and any delay or failure by the Administrative Agent to
enforce any provision shall not preclude the Administrative Agent from
enforcing any such provision thereafter.


 


(b)            Pledgor hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to file one or more financing
statements describing all or part of the Collateral, and continuation
statements, or amendments thereto, relative to all or part of the Collateral as
authorized by applicable law.  Such
financing statements, continuation statements and amendments will contain any
other information required by the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office
acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or
amendment.  Pledgor agrees to furnish any
such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request.  Pledgor also ratifies Pledgor’s authorization
for the Administrative Agent to have filed any initial financing statement or
amendments thereto filed prior to the date hereof.


 


(c)            From time to
time, Pledgor and each Debtor shall, at the request of the Administrative
Agent, execute such other agreements, documents or instruments or take any
other 


 


11

















 


actions
in connection with this Agreement as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
deem necessary to evidence or perfect the security interests granted herein, to
maintain the first priority of the security interests, or to effectuate the
rights granted to the Administrative Agent herein, but their failure to do so
shall not limit or affect any security interest or any other rights of the
Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral. 
Pledgor will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any stock
powers, instructions to any securities intermediary, issuer or transfer agent,
proxies, or any other documents of transfer that the Administrative Agent
requests in order to perfect, obtain control or otherwise protect the
Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral or to effect the
Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement.  Such powers or documents may be executed in
blank or completed prior to execution, as requested by the Administrative
Agent.


 


(d)            Any term used
or defined in the UCC and not defined herein has the meaning given to the term
in the UCC, when used in this Agreement.


 


(e)            This Agreement
shall benefit the Administrative Agent’s successors and assigns and shall bind
each of Pledgor’s and each Debtor’s successors and assigns, except that none of
the Debtors or Pledgor may assign their respective rights or obligations under
this Agreement.


 


(f)             No failure by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay by any such
Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, under
the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power
or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges
herein provided and provided under the Credit Agreement and each other Loan
Document are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and
privileges provided by law.


 


(g)            The illegality,
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not in
any way affect or impair the legality, validity or enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Agreement.


 


(h)            This Agreement
and any other documents executed or delivered in connection herewith including,
but not limited to the Intercreditor Agreement, 
constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof and shall supersede any prior expressions of intent
or understandings with respect to this transaction.


 


18.           FINAL AGREEMENT.  BY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT EACH PARTY
REPRESENTS AND AGREES THAT:  (A) THIS
DOCUMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE
SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, (B) THIS DOCUMENT SUPERSEDES ANY COMMITMENT LETTER,
TERM SHEET, OR OTHER WRITTEN OUTLINE OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATING TO THE
SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, UNLESS SUCH COMMITMENT LETTER, TERM SHEET, OR OTHER

I
am the spouse of Arthur E. Lipper (“Lipper”).

hereby join in the Pledge Agreement and agree to be bound by its terms and
conditions to the same extent as my spouse. 
I have read the Pledge Agreement, understand its terms and conditions,
and to the extent that I have felt it necessary, have retained independent
legal counsel to advise me concerning the legal effect of the Pledge Agreement
and this Spousal Joinder and Consent.


 


I
understand and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent is relying on the
validity and accuracy of this Spousal Joinder and Consent in entering into the
Pledge Agreement.
