Termination of Pledge Agreement This Agreement and the rights hereby granted by Pledgor in the Collateral shall cease, terminate and be void upon fulfillment of all of the obligations of Pledgor under the Securities Contract and hereunder. Any Collateral remaining at the time of such termination shall be fully released and discharged from the Security Interests and delivered to Pledgor by Secured Party, all at the request and expense of Pledgor.
DEFINITION OF PLEDGED PROPERTY For the purpose of securing prompt and complete payment and performance by the Company of all of the Obligations, the Company unconditionally and irrevocably hereby grants to the Secured Party a continuing security interest in and to, and lien upon, the following Pledged Property of the Company:
Retention of Pledged Collateral To the extent permitted under applicable law, in addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, after providing the notices required by Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have accepted or retained any Pledged Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.
Disposition of Pledged Interests by Agent None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof will be, registered or qualified under the various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an Event of Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration. Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, Agent may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause the Pledged Interests or any portion thereof to be sold at a private sale, Agent shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm (but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and the failure to do so shall not be considered in determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer the Pledged Interest or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable at the private sale thereof; and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.
Rate of Pledge and Term of Pledge 3.1 The Rate of Pledge: The Rate of Pledge shall be 100% under this Agreement.
Release of Pledged Collateral The Administrative Agent may release any of the Pledged Collateral from this Pledge Agreement or may substitute any of the Pledged Collateral for other Pledged Collateral without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Pledge Agreement as to any Pledged Collateral not expressly released or substituted, and this Pledge Agreement shall continue as a first priority lien on all Pledged Collateral not expressly released or substituted.
Release of Pledged Shares from Pledge Upon the payment of all amounts due to the Pledgee under the Convertible Debentures by repayment in accordance with the terms of the Note, the parties hereto shall notify the Escrow Agent to such effect in writing. Upon receipt of such written notice for payment of the amounts due to the Pledgee under the Convertible Debentures, the Escrow Agent shall return to the Pledgor the Transfer Documents and the certificates representing the Pledged Shares, (collectively the "Pledged Materials"), whereupon any and all rights of Pledgee in the Pledged Materials shall be terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon full payment of all amounts due to the Pledgee under the Convertible Debentures, by repayment in accordance with the terms of the Note, this Agreement and Pledgee's security interest and rights in and to the Pledged Shares shall terminate.
NOTICE OF PLEDGE 4.1 Subject to Clause 4.3 below the Pledgor undertakes that it will without undue delay, but not later than twenty business days after the date of this Agreement, and, in relation to any Account opened after the date of this Agreement, within ten business days after such new Account has been opened, notify each Account Bank and any other relevant third party of the Pledges by delivering a notification substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Form of Notice of Pledge) by registered mail (Einschreiben mit Rückschein). The Pledgor shall provide the Collateral Agent with a copy of each such notification and of the corresponding return receipt (Rückschein). In addition, the Pledgor shall use all reasonable efforts to procure that each Account Bank promptly acknowledges receipt of the respective notification, and acceptance of the terms thereof, to the Collateral Agent and to the Pledgor.
Transfer of Pledged Securities All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Pledged Securities shall be delivered to and held pursuant hereto by the Administrative Agent or a Person designated by the Administrative Agent and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, and accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps to effect the pledge of the Pledged Securities to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, at the Administrative Agent’s discretion, all Pledged Securities must be delivered or transferred in such manner as to permit the Administrative Agent to be a “protected purchaser” to the extent of its security interest as provided in Section 8.303 of the UCC (if the Administrative Agent otherwise qualifies as a protected purchaser). During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and without notice, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Administrative Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Pledged Securities, subject only to the revocable rights of the relevant Grantor specified in Section 6.03. In addition, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Securities for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.
Description of Pledged Collateral (a) The Pledged Collateral is described as follows and on any separate schedules at any time furnished by Pledgor to Secured Party (which schedules are hereby deemed part of this Agreement):
