Revolving Lenders.
Section 4.3 NITE Stock Covenants. In connection with the NITE Stock,
the Borrower agrees as follows:
(a) ▇▇▇▇ to Market. The Borrower represents and warrants
that the current Pledged NITE Stock on the date
hereof has a market value of at least $28,572,000.00.
The Pledged NITE Stock shall be marked to market
daily to determine the fair market value of such
Collateral. The Borrower shall provide to the Agent
weekly a report showing the current fair market value
of the Pledged NITE Stock. Such report will be
delivered by 5:00 p.m. on the first Business Day of
each week showing the fair market value of the
Pledged NITE Stock as of the close of the last
Business Day of the preceding week.
(b) Additional Pledged NITE Stock. In the event that the
fair market value of the Pledged NITE Stock
(including any additional Pledged NITE Stock
delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Stock Pledge
Agreement) on any day is less than $28,572,000.00 or
if, on any day, the Principal Loan Amount exceeds 70%
of the fair market value of the Pledged NITE Stock on
such day, the Borrower shall give notice of such
deficiency to the Agent as soon as practicable, but
in no event later than three Business Days after the
occurrence of such event(s). If, on any day, the
Principal Loan Amount then outstanding exceeds 80% of
the fair market value of the Pledged NITE Stock on
such day, the Borrower shall, within two
- 4 -
Business Days, pay down the Notes or deliver to the
Agent, or transfer into the Pledged Account, as
applicable, additional NITE Stock such that the
Principal Loan Amount then outstanding shall not
exceed 70% of the then current fair market value of
the Pledged NITE Stock. In the event that the
Borrower fails to remedy the collateral deficiency
described in the preceding sentence within two
Business Days, the Agent on behalf of the Revolving
Lenders may require the sale of the Pledged NITE
Stock in an amount such that the net proceeds from
such sale will be sufficient to reduce the Principal
Loan Amount outstanding to an amount not exceeding
70% of the fair market value of the remaining Pledged
NITE Stock. The Pledged NITE Stock to be sold will be
delivered pursuant to a trust receipt to consummate a
sale arranged by the Borrower with the net proceeds
of such sale to be paid in immediately available
funds to the Agent no later than the third Business
Day following the release of such stock.
V. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
Section 5.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more Events
of Default under the Revolving Credit Agreement or the failure of the Borrower
to fulfill its obligations under this Stock Pledge Agreement shall constitute an
Event of Default hereunder.
Section 5.2. Acceleration and Remedies. If any Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, and upon the expiration of any applicable cure period, if
any, upon the election of the Requisite Revolving Lenders, the Obligations,
including accrued interest, shall immediately become due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived, and the Agent, or if the Agent refuses to act upon the
direction of Requisite Revolving Lenders, the Revolving Lenders may (i) exercise
all rights set forth in Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4, and (ii) may exercise any or
all of the rights and remedies provided (x) in this Stock Pledge Agreement, (y)
in the Nebraska Uniform Commercial Code (the "Nebraska UCC") and in the Delaware
Uniform Commercial Code (the "Delaware UCC") to a secured party when a debtor is
in default under a security agreement and (z) by any other applicable law. Upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(h)(1) or (2) of
the Agreement, acceleration under this Section 5.2 shall occur automatically
without the election, declaration, notice or other act on the part of any of the
Revolving Lenders.
VI. WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES
Section 6.1 Waivers, Amendments and Remedies. No delay or omission of
the Agent or Revolving Lenders to exercise any right or remedy granted under
this Stock Pledge Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to
be a waiver of any Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single
or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy, and no
waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of
this Stock Pledge Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed
by the Agent, and then only
- 5 -
to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All rights and remedies
contained in this Stock Pledge Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative
and all shall be available to the Agent and the Revolving Lenders until the
Obligations have been paid and performed in full.
VII. GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 7.1 Dividends. Unless an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, any dividends permitted under the Loan Agreement and payable in
connection with the Pledged Stock may be payable to the Borrower.
Section 7.2 Special Collateral Account. Subject to the provisions of
Section 7.1, all cash received by the Agent or the Revolving Lenders, if any,
with respect to the Collateral shall be deposited in a special collateral
account with the Agent for the Revolving Lenders and shall be held by the Agent
as security for the Obligations. The Borrower shall have no control whatsoever
over said special collateral account. The Agent may, but is not required to, at
any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, apply any part of the
credit balance in said special collateral account to the payment of the
Obligations, in accordance with the Agreement, whether or not the Obligations
shall be then due.
Section 7.3 Registration of Pledged Stock. At the option of the Agent,
any registerable Collateral may at any time after the occurrence of an Event of
Default and upon the expiration of any applicable cure period, if any, be
registered in the name of FNB-O or its nominee as agent for the Revolving
Lenders. This right is in addition to any rights the Agent may have as to
Pledged NITE Stock held in the Pledged Account.
Section 7.4 Exercise of Rights in Pledged Stock. After an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, and upon the expiration of any applicable cure
period, if any, the Agent or its nominee as agent for the Revolving Lenders may
at any time and from time to time, without notice, exercise all voting and
corporate rights relating to the Collateral, including, without limitation,
exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges, or options pertaining to
any shares of the Pledged Stock and the Stock Rights as if it were the absolute
owner thereof. At all other times, the Borrower may exercise such rights.
Section 7.5 Notice of Disposition of Pledged Stock. Notice of the time
and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other
disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made shall be reasonable
if sent to the Borrower, addressed as set forth in Article VIII, at least ten
days prior to any such public sale or the time after which any such private sale
or other disposition may be made.
Section 7.6 Terms of Disposition. The Borrower agrees that the private
sale or other private disposition of Collateral consisting of securities shall
be commercially reasonable notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially
higher price might be realized if such sale or other disposition were public and
deferred until after registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or compliance with any other applicable securities laws.
- 6 -
Section 7.7 Possession of Collateral; Disclaimer. Beyond the exercise
of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral in the physical
possession of the Agent pursuant hereto, neither the Agent nor the Revolving
Lenders shall have any duty or liability to collect any sums due in respect
thereof or to protect, preserve or exercise any rights pertaining thereto, and
the Agent and each Revolving Lender shall be relieved of all responsibility for
the Collateral upon surrendering it to the Borrower. No course of dealing
between the Borrower and the Agent or the Revolving Lenders, nor any failure to
exercise nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or the Revolving
Lenders, any right, power or privilege hereunder or with respect to the
Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided and provided in all other
agreements, instruments and documents delivered, or to be delivered, pursuant to
or in connection with or to evidence any of the Obligations are cumulative and
are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights and remedies of a secured
party under the Nebraska UCC or the Delaware UCC. The provisions of this Stock
Pledge Agreement are severable and if any clause or provision thereof shall be
held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, then such invalidity or
unenforceability shall attach only to such clause or provision, or part thereof,
and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other
jurisdiction or any other clause or provision in this Stock Pledge Agreement or
any jurisdiction.
Section 7.8 Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. The Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in
Sections 4.1(a), 4.1(d) or 4.2 will cause irreparable injury to the Revolving
Lenders, that the Revolving Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of
such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Revolving
Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the
Borrower contained in this Stock Pledge Agreement, that the covenants of the
Borrower contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 7.8 shall be
specifically enforceable against the Borrower.
Section 7.9 Definition of Certain Terms. Terms defined in the Nebraska
UCC which are not otherwise defined in this Stock Pledge Agreement are used in
this Stock Pledge Agreement as defined in the Nebraska UCC as in effect on the
date hereof.
Section 7.10 Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this
Stock Pledge Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Borrower, the Agent and the Revolving Lenders and their respective successors
and assignees, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its
rights nor delegate its duties under this Stock Pledge Agreement, without the
prior written consent of all the Revolving Lenders.
Section 7.11 Survival of Representations. All representations and
warranties of the Borrower contained in this Stock Pledge Agreement shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Stock Pledge Agreement.
Section 7.12 Taxes and Expenses. The Borrower will upon demand pay to
the Agent (i) any taxes (excluding income taxes) payable or ruled payable by
federal or state authority in respect of this Stock Pledge Agreement, together
with interest and penalties, if any, and (ii) all
- 7 -
reasonable expenses, including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses
of counsel for the Agent and the Revolving Lenders (which may be employees of
the Agent or another Revolving Lender) and of any experts and agents that the
Revolving Lenders may incur in connection with (a) the administration of this
Stock Pledge Agreement, (b) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of,
collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Pledged Stock, (c) the
exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Revolving Lenders hereunder,
or (d) the failure of the Borrower to perform or observe any of the provisions
hereof or of the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Section 7.13 Choice of Law. This Stock Pledge Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nebraska.
Section 7.14 Headings. The title of and section headings in this Stock
Pledge Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the
interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Stock Pledge
Agreement.
Section 7.15 Termination. This Stock Pledge Agreement shall continue in
effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no
Obligations outstanding) until the Borrower has received written notice from the
Revolving Lenders electing to terminate this Stock Pledge Agreement or the
Revolving Credit Agreement is terminated and there are no Obligations
outstanding (other than contingent obligations which, by their terms, survive
termination of the Revolving Credit Agreement). Upon such termination, the Agent
shall promptly return to Borrower all certificates and documents in its
possession representing Collateral hereunder and execute and deliver to Borrower
such releases and documents as Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence
such termination.
Section 7.16 Counterparts. This Stock Pledge Agreement may be executed
in several counterparts and such counterparts together shall constitute one and
the same instrument.
VIII. NOTICES

IX. WAIVERS
Section 9.1 Waivers. By execution of this Stock Pledge Agreement, the
Borrower intends that the Collateral shall be absolutely and unconditionally
available to secure the prompt payment when due of all Obligations, irrespective
of the unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of such obligations or the
unenforceability, illegality, invalidity or insufficiency of any security
therefor, together with all reasonable and documented costs, expenses and
attorneys' fees incurred by the Revolving Lenders in connection with any Event
of Default.
It shall not be necessary to procure the consent of the Borrower or to
give any notice in reference to: (i) any settlement, renewal, extension,
modification, release, waiver, discharge or variation of terms of any of the
obligations of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other interested person,
by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any acceptance of partial payments from
the Borrower; (iii) any impairment, release, collection or liquidation of any
collateral for the Obligations; (iv) any acceptance of new or additional
documents, instruments or agreements in satisfaction or substitution of the
Obligations; (v) any failure to file, record or register any security document,
to preserve or protect the collateral obtained thereby, or to perfect the
security interest therein; or (vi) any other failure of the Agent or the
Revolving Lenders to exercise or enforce any of their rights against the
Borrower.
The Borrower hereby expressly waives and dispenses with notice of
acceptance of this Stock Pledge Agreement, notices of non-payment, default,
non-performance or protest, notice of the amount of indebtedness outstanding at
any time, presentments, protests, demands, prosecution of collection,
foreclosure and possessory remedies, all exemption and homestead laws, and all
setoffs and counterclaims.
If a claim is made upon the Agent or the Revolving Lenders for
repayment or recovery of any amount(s) or other value received by the Agent or
the Revolving Lenders, from any source, in payment of or on account of the
Obligations and the Agent or the Revolving Lenders pay or otherwise become
liable for such claim by reason of any judgment, decree or order or by reason of
any compromise or settlement of such claim, this Stock Pledge Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect to the same extent as if such amount has never
been received by the Agent or the Revolving Lenders, notwithstanding any
termination hereof or the cancellation of any note or other agreement evidencing
the Obligations.
The Borrower by its signature below, does hereby waive for purposes of
the security interest granted by this Stock Pledge Agreement (including, without
limitation, for purposes of any necessary enforcement thereof) any transfer
restrictions set forth within the Borrower's Articles of Incorporation.
