(c)
General : The Bank may, in its name, or in
the name of the undersigned: (i) execute and file
financing statements under the UCC or any other filings or notices
necessary or desirable to create, perfect or preserve its security
interest, all without notice (except as required by applicable law
and not waivable) and without liability except to account for
property actually received by it; (ii) demand, sue for, collect or
receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on
account of or in exchange for, or make any compromise or settlement
deemed desirable with respect to, any item of the
Collateral (but shall be under no obligation to do so);
(iii) make any notification (to the issuer of any certificate or
Security, or otherwise, including giving any notice of exclusive

The undersigned
agrees that it will not file or permit to be filed any termination
statement with respect to the Collateral or any financing or like
statement with respect to the Collateral in which the Bank is not
named as the sole secured party, consent or be a party to any
Account Control Agreement to which the Bank is not also a party or
sell, assign, or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with
respect to, or pledge, or otherwise encumber the
Collateral. At the request of the Bank the undersigned
agrees to do all other things which the Bank may deem necessary or
advisable in order to perfect and preserve its security interest,
perfection and operational control and to give effect to the rights
granted to the Bank under this Agreement or enable the Bank to
comply with any applicable laws or
regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank
does not assume any duty with respect to the Collateral and is not
required to take any action to collect, preserve or protect its or
the undersigned’s rights in any item of the
Collateral. The undersigned releases the Bank and agrees
to hold the Bank harmless from any claims, causes of action and
demands at any time arising with respect to this Agreement, the use
or disposition of any item of the Collateral or any action taken or
omitted to be taken by the Bank with respect
thereto. The undersigned releases each Intermediary and
agrees to hold each Intermediary harmless from any claims, causes
of action and demands at any time arising with respect to any
instruction made by Bank to any Intermediary purporting to be made
under this Agreement or any Account Control Agreement, it being
understood that no Intermediary shall have any duty to investigate
Bank’s right to issue any such instruction or any other
matter related to any such instruction.
The rights
granted to the Bank pursuant to this Agreement are in addition to
the rights granted to the Bank in any custody, investment
management, trust, Account Control Agreement or similar
agreement. In case of conflict between the provisions of
this Agreement and of any other such agreement, the provisions of
this Agreement will prevail.
4.
Loan Value of the Collateral.
The undersigned
agrees that at all times the Liabilities may not exceed the
aggregate Loan Value of the Collateral. The undersigned
will, at the Bank’s option, either supplement the Collateral
or make, or cause to be made, any payment under the Liabilities to
the extent necessary to ensure compliance with this provision or
the Bank may liquidate Collateral to the extent necessary to ensure
compliance with this provision. “ Loan
Value ” means the value assigned by the Bank from time to
time, in its sole reasonable discretion, to each item of the
Collateral. The Bank retains the right to determine the
eligibility of the Collateral.
For calculation
purposes, any currency in which the Collateral is denominated (the
“ Collateral Currency ”) will be converted into
the currency of the Liabilities (the “ Liability
Currency ”) at the spot rate of exchange for the purchase
of the Liability Currency with the Collateral Currency quoted by
the Bank at such place as the Bank deems appropriate (or, if no
such rate is quoted on any relevant date, estimated by the Bank on
the basis of the Bank’s last quoted spot rate) or another
prevailing rate that the Bank deems more appropriate.
