Borrower in relation to the Pledged Collateral, or because of other present or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose
or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being herein called the &#147;Federal Securities Laws&#148;) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. The Borrower understands that
compliance with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Lender if the Lender were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner
in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Lender in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Collateral under
applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Under applicable law, in the absence of an agreement to the contrary, the Lender may be held to have certain general duties and obligations to the
Borrower to make some effort toward obtaining a fair price even though the obligations of the Borrower may be discharged or reduced by the proceeds of a sale at a lesser price. The Borrower clearly understands that the Lender is not to have any such
general duty or obligation to the Borrower, and the Borrower will not attempt to hold the Lender responsible for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at any inadequate price even if the Lender shall accept the first offer received or
does not approach more than one possible purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the </FONT></DIV> <P></P>

Pledged Collateral, if it deems it advisable so to do, (i) to restrict the prospective bidders on or purchasers of any of the Pledged Collateral to a limited number of sophisticated investors who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for
their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of any of such Pledged Collateral, (ii) to cause to be placed on certificates for any or all of the Pledged Collateral or on any other securities pledged hereunder a

action as the Lender deems necessary or advisable in order to comply with said Federal Securities Laws or any other law in connection with any such sale of the Pledged Collateral. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that such limitations may result
in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such limitations were not imposed, and, notwithstanding such limitations, agrees that any such sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely
because of such limitations, it being the agreement of the Borrower and the Lender that the provisions of this Section 6.5 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed
substantially the price at which the Lender sells the Pledged Collateral. The Lender shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any Pledged Collateral for a period of time necessary to permit the issuer of any securities contained therein to
register such securities under the Federal Securities Laws, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the issuer would agree to do so. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT
