Pledge of Stock Pledgor hereby pledges and grants to Secured Party a security interest in the Stock, which shall attach immediately upon each issuance of Stock to all shares of Stock issued to Pledgor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. Immediately upon receipt of any shares of Stock, Pledgor shall be required to deliver to Secured Party the certificate or certificates representing the Stock in order that Secured Party might perfect its security interest therein. The Pledgor and the Secured Party hereby acknowledge and agree that the value of the Stock ("Agreed Value") shall be deemed to be (i) the IPO Price if shares are being surrendered hereunder in order to effect an adjustment in the Purchase Price and (ii) if shares are being surrendered hereunder for any other reason, the average public trading price of each share of Stock over the five (5) most recent business days falling prior to the date of delivery by the Secured Party to the Pledgor of the notice of an event requiring an Offset, as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement. Pledgor shall possess all voting rights pertaining to the Stock, so long as an Event of Offset, as hereinafter defined, has not occurred, or if an Event of Offset has allegedly occurred but is being disputed by the parties hereto prior to submission to arbitration in accordance with Section 10.14 of the Purchase Agreement, and Secured Party shall have no voting rights that may be presently or hereafter attributable to the Stock. In addition, so long as an Event of Offset has not occurred, or if an Event of Offset has allegedly occurred but is being disputed by the parties hereto prior to submission to arbitration in accordance with Section 10.14 of the Purchase Agreement, then Pledgor shall have the right to receive all dividends, if any, on the Stock, and Pledgor shall be entitled to receive all proceeds upon liquidation of the Stock, if any, as well as all other rights with respect to the Stock except for the right to transfer title thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Offset has occurred and (i) has been resolved, either by failure to timely dispute it as required by Section 10.14 of the Purchase Agreement, by agreement or by arbitration decided in favor of Secured Party (a "Resolved Event of Offset") or (ii) has been submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 10.14 of the Purchase Agreement which arbitration is still pending or in process (a "Continuing Event of Offset"), then Secured Party shall have the right to designate a representative or trustee to vote those shares of Stock covered by or subject to the Resolved Event of Offset or Continuing Event of Offset (the "Offset Shares"), to receive all dividends and liquidation proceeds with respect to the Offset Shares, and to receive all other rights with respect to the Offset Shares.
Pledge of Shares Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Bank, a security interest in all the Shares, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations. On the Closing Date, or, to the extent not certificated as of the Closing Date, within ten (10) days of the certification of any Shares, the certificate or certificates for the Shares will be delivered to Bank, accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly executed in blank by Borrower. To the extent required by the terms and conditions governing the Shares, Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Bank may effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral (including but not limited to the Shares) into the name of Bank and cause new (as applicable) certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Bank or its transferee. Borrower will execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as Bank may reasonably request to perfect or continue the Shares. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms. All such rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
Sale of Stock and Assets No Credit Party shall convey, sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its property, business or assets (including, without limitation, receivables and leasehold interests), whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or, in the case of any Subsidiary, issue or sell any shares of such Subsidiary's capital Stock to any Person other than Borrower or any wholly-owned Subsidiary, except:
