(b)           Status of Accounts; Treatment of Property as Financial Assets; Relationship of Parties.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that:  (i) each of the Accounts is a “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501(a) of the UCC) in respect of which the Custodian is a “securities intermediary” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC); (ii) each item of property (whether cash, a security, an instrument or any other property) credited to any of the Accounts shall be treated as a “financial asset” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC); (iii) the Custodian will treat each Secured Party as the person entitled to exercise the rights that comprise such Secured Party’s pro rata interest in each such item of property credited to any of the Accounts; (iv) each Secured Party is an “entitlement holder” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(7) of the UCC); and (v) the Pledged Collateral and any rights or proceeds derived therefrom are subject to the liens and other security interests in favor of the Secured Parties and the rights of the Company in respect of the Pledged Collateral are also subject to such liens and such other security interests.

(e)           Securities Intermediary’s Jurisdiction.  The Custodian agrees that, for the purposes of the UCC, its “securities intermediary’s jurisdiction” (within the meaning of Section 8–110(e) of the UCC) shall be the State of New York.

(f)            Conflicts with other Agreements.  The Custodian agrees that, if there is any conflict between this Agreement (or any portion thereof) and any other agreement relating to any of the Accounts, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

(g)           No Other Agreements.  The Custodian hereby confirms and agrees that:

(i)            there are no other agreements entered into between the Custodian and the Company with respect to the Accounts;

(ii)           it has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with any other person relating to the Accounts and/or any financial assets credited thereto pursuant to which it has agreed or will agree to comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) of such other person; and

(iii)          it has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with the Company or any Secured Party purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Custodian to comply with entitlement orders as set forth in Section 4 hereof.

(h)           Entitlement Orders, Standing Instructions.  The Company, each Secured Party and the Custodian each agree that if at any time the Custodian shall receive any “entitlement order” (within the meaning of Section 8–102(a)(8) of the New York UCC), or any other order, originated by a Secured Party (so long as such order shall not relate to Pledged Shares exceeding such Secured Party’s AVII Exchange Cap Allocation) and relating to the Accounts, the Custodian shall comply with such entitlement order or other order without further consent by the Company or any other Person.  Subject to the following paragraph, the Custodian shall accept instructions or entitlement orders only from a Secured Party with respect to any Pledged Collateral pledged to it pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and held by the Custodian or otherwise credited to or held in the Accounts.  The Secured Parties hereby instruct and order the Custodian to deposit, and to direct and otherwise cause each issuer, obligor, guarantor, clearing corporation or other applicable Person to pay and deposit into the Accounts under and in accordance with the Pledge Agreement all cash distributions and all other Cash payments and proceeds in respect of the Pledged Collateral (including any stock or securities issued with respect to the Pledged Collateral and (i) if issued in certificated form, the relevant certificate(s)

shall be delivered to the Custodian upon receipt, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by blank stock powers, in each case with signatures guaranteed by a member of a medallion signature guaranteed program approved by the Securities Transfer Association and (ii) if issued in book entry form, shall be registered in the name of the Custodian or its nominee), until such time as the Secured Parties may otherwise direct the Custodian in accordance with this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Custodian agrees to comply with an exchange notice from a Secured Party or the Company which exchange notice shall request delivery to such Secured Party of a number of Pledged Shares that together with all previously delivered Pledged Shares to such Secured Party shall not exceed in the aggregate such Secured Party’s AVII Exchange Cap Allocation.  For purposes hereof, “AVII Exchange Cap Allocation” means for each Secured Party, initially the amount set forth opposite such Secured Party’s name on Exhibit A hereto.  In the event that any Secured Party shall sell or otherwise transfer any of its rights to any of the Pledged Shares in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, then such Secured Party shall inform the Custodian in writing and the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Secured Party’s AVII Exchange Cap Allocation.  In the event that any Secured Party shall no longer have any rights to any Pledged Collateral and such Secured Party shall have received a number of Pledged Shares which, in the aggregate, is less than such Secured Party’s AVII Exchange Cap Allocation, then the Company and the remaining Secured Parties shall so inform the Custodian in writing and the difference between such Secured Party’s AVII Exchange Cap Allocation and the number of Pledged Shares actually delivered to such Secured Party shall be allocated to the respective AVII Exchange Cap Allocations of the remaining Secured Party’s on a pro rata basis in accordance with such notice.  In addition to the foregoing, upon receipt of written instructions from a Secured Party, the Custodian shall take all actions necessary to deliver to the Secured Parties unrestricted shares, provided that the Custodian shall have received, if reasonably requested, a legal opinion from the Company that such actions will be in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

(b)           Certain Information.  The Custodian shall promptly notify the Secured Parties if any Person asserts or seeks to assert a lien, encumbrance or adverse claim against any portion or all of the property credited to any of the Accounts.  The Custodian will send copies of all statements, confirmations and other correspondence relating to each of the Accounts (and/or any financial assets credited thereto)  simultaneously to the Company and the Secured Parties.

(c)           Subordination.  In the event that the Custodian has or subsequently obtains by agreement, by operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any securities account or any security entitlement credited thereto, the Custodian hereby subordinates any such security interest therein to the security interest of the Secured Parties in the Accounts, in all property credited thereto and in all security entitlements with respect to such property, any

and all statutory, regulatory, contractual or other rights now or hereafter existing in favor of the Custodian over or with respect to the Accounts, all property credited thereto and all security entitlements to such property (including (i) any and all contractual rights of set-off, lien or compensation, (ii) any and all statutory or regulatory rights of pledge, lien, set-off or compensation (except that the Custodian may set-off the face amount of any checks which have been credited to the Accounts but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds), (iii) any and all statutory, regulatory, contractual or other rights to put on hold, block transfers from or fail to honor instructions of the Secured Parties with respect to the Accounts or (iv) any and all statutory or other rights to prohibit or otherwise limit the pledge, assignment, collateral assignment or granting of any type of security interest of the Custodian in the Accounts).

(i) shall act hereunder as custodian only and shall not be responsible or liable in any matter whatever for the sufficiency, collection, correctness, genuineness or validity of any revenues, cash, payments, securities, property, funds, investments, dividends, distributions, interest, income, earnings or other amounts deposited with or held by it or for the identity, authority or rights of any person or entity executing and delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any thereof to the Custodian;

(ii) shall be fully protected in acting upon any written notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document which the Custodian believes to be genuine, and shall have no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any thereof;

(iii) shall not be liable for any error of judgment or for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken except in the case of its own gross negligence or bad faith, as determined by a final non-appealable order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction.  In no event shall the Custodian be (A) liable for acting in accordance with a notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document from a Secured Party or (B) liable or responsible for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damages of any kind whatsoever to any person or entity (including without limitation lost profits).  Any liability of the Custodian under this Agreement will be limited to the amount of fees paid to the Custodian;

(v) shall have no duties, responsibilities or obligations as the Custodian except those which are expressly set forth herein, and in any modification or amendment hereof to which the Custodian has consented in writing, and no duties, responsibilities or obligations shall be implied or inferred.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Custodian shall not be subject to, nor be required to comply with, or determine if any person or entity has complied with, the Pledge Agreement or any other agreement between or among the parties hereto, even though reference thereto may be made in this Agreement, or to comply with any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement;

(vi) may execute or perform any duty, responsibility or obligation hereunder either directly or through agents, attorneys, accountants or other experts;

(viii) shall not be obligated to expend or risk its own funds or to take any action which it believes would expose it to expense or liability or to a risk of incurring expense or liability, unless it has been furnished with assurances of repayment or indemnity satisfactory to it;

(ix) shall not take instructions or directions except those given in accordance with this Agreement;

(x) shall not incur any liability for not performing any act, duty, obligation or responsibility by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Custodian (including without limitation any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God, war, civil disorder or failure of any means of communication); and

(xi) shall not be called upon to advise any person or entity as to any investments with respect to any security, property or funds held in escrow hereunder or the dividends, distributions, income, interest or earnings thereon for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder or in connection herewith unless there has been a final judicial determination that such act or omission was performed or omitted in bad faith or constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 5.              Indemnity; Limitation on Damages; Expenses; Fees.

(a)           Indemnity.  The Company agrees to indemnify, defend, protect, save and keep harmless the Custodian and its affiliates and their respective successors, assigns, directors, officers, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants and experts (collectively the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, penalties, judgments, settlements, actions, suits, proceedings, litigation, investigations, costs or expenses, including without limitation reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (collectively “Losses”), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnitee, at any time, and in any way relating to or arising out of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, the enforcement of any rights or remedies under or in connection with this Agreement, the establishment of the Accounts, the acceptance or administration of the Accounts and any payment, transfer or other application of securities, property or funds pursuant to this Agreement, or as may arise by reason of any act, omission or error of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to be so indemnified, defended, protected, saved and kept harmless to the extent such Loss was proximately caused by its own gross negligence or bad faith, as determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction.  The obligations contained in this Section 5(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Custodian.
