qualification or compliance under any Federal or state securities law or laws to
be effected with respect to all or any part of the Pledged Stock, such Pledgor
as soon as practicable and at its expense will use its best efforts to cause
such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its best
efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept
effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and
distribution of such Pledged Stock, including, without limitation, registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as then in effect (or any similar statute then
in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state
securities laws and appropriate compliance with any other governmental
requirements, provided that the Pledgee shall furnish to such Pledgor such
information regarding the Pledgee as such Pledgor may request in writing and as
shall be required in connection with any such registration, qualification or
compliance. Each Pledgor will cause the Pledgee to be kept reasonably advised in
writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or
compliance and as to the completion thereof, will furnish to the Pledgee such
number of prospectuses, offering circulars and other documents incident thereto
as the Pledgee from time to time may reasonably request, and will indemnify, to
the extent permitted by law, the Pledgee, each other Secured Creditor and all
others participating in the distribution of such Pledged Stock against all
claims, losses, damages or liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any
related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or
alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement,
notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the
same may have been caused by an untrue statement or omission based upon
information furnished in writing to such Pledgor by the Pledgee or such other
Secured Creditor expressly for use therein.
(b) If at any time when the Pledgee shall determine to exercise
its right to sell all or any part of the Pledged Securities pursuant to Section
7, and such Pledged Securities or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any
reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as then in effect, the Pledgee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell
such Pledged Securities or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under
such circumstances as the Pledgee may deem necessary or advisable in order that
such sale may

legally be effected without such registration. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, in any such event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a
registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Securities or
part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach
and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale and (iii) may
restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such
purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view
to the distribution or sale of such Pledged Securities or part thereof. In the
event of any such sale, the Pledgee shall incur no responsibility or liability
for selling all or any part of the Pledged Securities at a price which the
Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable
under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially
higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until the registration
as aforesaid.
18. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a) After the Termination Date (as
defined below), this Agreement shall terminate (PROVIDED that all indemnities
set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 11 hereof shall
survive any such termination) and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of the
respective Pledgor, will execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument
or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement
as provided above, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor
(without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the
