WHEREAS, the Pledgor is a shareholder of the Company, and as such, will derive direct and indirect benefits from the Purchase Agreement; and
 
WHEREAS, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, covenants and promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
SECTION 1.
 
1.1            Pledge and Security Interest.  The Pledgor hereby pledges to the Pledgee, and grants to the Pledgee a continuing security interest in, the following (collectively, the "Pledged Collateral"):
 
 
(a)
Three Million (3,000,000) shares of common stock (the "Pledged Shares" or “Pledged Collateral”) of the Company, in the aggregate, owned by the Pledgor, which shall, for the term of this agreement, be placed in the name of the Pledgee,  represented by the certificates identified in Schedule 1(a) annexed hereto representing the Pledged Shares, and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Pledged Shares; and
 
 
(b)
all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing Pledged Collateral, in whatever form (including, without limitation, proceeds that constitute property of the types described above).
 
 
 

 
 
1.2
If at any time during the term of the Debenture, the Volume Weighted Average Price per share of the Company’s Common Stock shall equal a price per share that is equal to or less than $0.01 per share (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, subdivisions, recapitalizations or the like) (the “Common Stock Event”) and the Pledgee shall notify the Pledgor and the Company in writing of the occurrence of the Common Stock Event (the “Common Stock Event Notice”), such Common Stock Event shall constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the Debenture and this Agreement, regardless of whether the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock again shall equal a price per share that is above $0.01 per share (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, subdivisions, recapitalizations or the like).
 
For purposes of this Agreement, “Volume Weighted Average Price” per share of the Company’s Common Stock means the volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during any Trading Day as reported on the NASDAQ OTCBB Exchange; provided further, that, if such security is not listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ OTCBB, as reported on the principal national security exchange or quotation system on which such security is quoted or listed or admitted to trading, including without limitation the “pink sheets” through the Interdealer Trading Quotation System, or, if not quoted or listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quotation system, the volume weighted average price of the Company's Common Stock during any Trading Day on the over-the-counter market as reported by Bloomberg LP or a similar generally accepted reporting service, as the case may be.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Trading Day” means any day on which (i) purchases and sales of securities on the principal national security exchange or quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock are traded are reported thereon, or, if not quoted or listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quotation system, as reported by Bloomberg LP or a similar generally accepted reporting service, as the case may be, (ii) at least one bid for the trading of the Company’s Common Stock is reported and (iii) no event that results in a material suspension or limitation of trading of the Company’s Common Stock occurs.
 
SECTION 2.                                 Security for Obligations.  This Agreement secures the payment and performance of the following obligations (collectively, the "Obligations"): all present and future indebtedness, obligations, covenants, duties and liabilities of any kind or nature of the Company to the Pledgee now existing or hereafter arising under or in connection with this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the Debenture, and any and all related agreements, documents and instruments, each as now existing and as hereafter amended, modified and supplemented (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), provided however, that the Obligations shall be limited at any given time to an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Cash Advance, or (ii) that portion of the Cash Advance that has not been converted into the Company’s Common Stock under the terms of the Debenture and remains represented by the outstanding principal balance of the Debenture.
 
SECTION 3.                                 Delivery of Pledged Collateral.  Concurrently herewith, all certificates representing or evidencing the Pledged Shares, in suitable form for transfer by delivery, and in the name of the Pledgee are being deposited with and delivered to the Pledgee represented by four stock certificates each representing 750,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (each certificate referred to herein as a “Pledged Shares Certificate”).

(b)
After the occurrence of any Event of Default if within twenty four hours of receiving written notice of such Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) from the Pledgee the Company has not paid all outstanding principal and accrued an unpaid interest and fees (including penalties) owed on the Debenture and any liquidated damages associated with such Event of Default, until the Debenture shall have been satisfied by conversion or payment in full:

(a)
the Company’s breach of a material covenant under this Agreement or the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Debenture, including without limitation the occurrence of a Common Stock Event, as described in Section 1.2 of this Agreement;
 
 
(b)
if any representation or warranty of the Pledgor set forth in this Agreement shall be breached or shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect or the Pledgor shall otherwise breach any term of this Agreement; or
 
 
(c)
the filing of any financing statement with regard to any of the Pledged Collateral other than pursuant to this Agreement, or the attachment of any additional Lien to any portion of the Pledged Collateral in favor of any Person other than the Pledgee.
 
SECTION 12.          Cross-Default; Cross-Collateralization.  The Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any default under the terms of this Agreement shall constitute a default by the Company under the Debenture.  The security interests, liens and other rights and interests in and relative to any of the personal property of the Pledgor now or hereafter granted to the Pledgee by the Pledgor pursuant to any agreement, document or instrument, including, but not limited to, this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the Debenture, shall serve as security for any and all of the Obligations, and, for the repayment thereof, Pledgee may resort to any such collateral in such order and manner as Pledgee may elect.
 
SECTION 13.          Remedies upon Event of Default.  After the occurrence of any Event of Default if within twenty four hours of receiving written notice of such Event of Default from the Pledgee the Company has not paid all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts owed on the Debenture to the extent of the Cash Advance:
 
 

 
 
 
(a)
Pledgee may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral held by it, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to the Pledgee (including, without limitation, the vesting in the Pledgee pursuant to Section 6(b)(i) of the sole right to exercise voting rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral, including, without limitation, voting rights with respect to the sale of assets of the Company), all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of California at that time (the "UCC") (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and may also, without notice except as specified below, to the extent required to pay all amounts due on the Debenture associated with such Event of Default (provided however that such amounts shall not exceed the Cash Advance), including without limitation principal, accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages, if any, that are due under the Debenture and fees, sell, in a commercially reasonable sale, the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at a public sale, provided that the Pledged Collateral is then trading on a Trading Market (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or at a private sale, if the Pledged Collateral is no longer trading on a Trading Market, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Pledgee may deem commercially reasonable. The application of the proceeds realized upon the sale of the Pledged Collateral may, in the sole discretion of the Pledgee, be applied to all or any portion of the amounts due on the Debenture associated with such Event of Default, in any order specified by the Pledgee, including without limitation the application of the proceeds realized upon the sale of the Pledged Collateral first to the liquidated damages, if any, owed in connection with the Debenture, and then to all other amounts due on the Debenture associated with such Event of Default, including without limitation principal, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other fees due under the Debenture, provided however, that such proceeds may only be applied to the satisfaction of the Cash Advance that is then outstanding under the Debenture, if any. The Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least three (3) days' notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Pledgee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time without notice. The Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that the Pledged Collateral consisting of the Pledged Shares, and/or any other shares of common stock of the Company, is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, and accordingly that no notice of the sale thereof need be given.
 
 
(b)
Any cash held by Pledgee as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Pledgee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral may, in the discretion of Pledgee, be held as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter be applied (after payment of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 14) in whole or in part against all or any part of the Obligations. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by Pledgee and remaining after payment in full of all the Obligations shall be paid over to the Pledgor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
 
SECTION 14.           Fees.  In the event an action is brought by Pledgee to enforce this Agreement, Pledgee shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs from Pledgor for such action.
 
SECTION 15.          Continuing Security Interest; Termination.  This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect  until the indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations.  Upon the indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the Pledgor and all certificates representing the Pledged Collateral shall be re-issued in the name of the Pledgor, the Pledgor’s successors or assigns to the extent such certificates are not already in such names.  Upon any such termination, the Pledgee shall immediately but no later than three Business Days after such termination, at the Pledgor's expense, return to the Pledgor such of the Pledged Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof and execute and deliver to the Pledgor such documents as the Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, within ten days of the Cash Advance being reduced by an amount equal to 25% of the original value of the Cash Advance, either due to repayment by the Company or conversion of such portion of the Cash Advance into the Company’s Common Stock at the request of the Pledgor under the terms of the Debenture, the Pledgee shall return to the Pledgor one Pledged Shares Certificate for each 25% portion of the original value of the Cash Advance so repaid or converted.
 
 
 

 
SECTION 16.          Governing Law; Terms.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.  The Pledgor agrees to submit itself to the in personam jurisdiction of the state and federal courts situated within San Diego County, California with regard to any controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  Unless otherwise defined herein or in the Purchase Agreement, terms defined in Article 9 of the UCC are used herein as therein defined.
 
SECTION 17.         Notice.  All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been received when delivered personally (which shall include, without limitation, via express overnight courier) or if mailed, three (3) Business Days after having been mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the addresses of the parties as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and if to the Pledgor, to the following address:

(b)
Waiver of Defense.  No course of dealing between the Pledgor and the Pledgee, nor any failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of Pledgee, any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or under any of the other Transaction Documents shall operate as a waiver.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or under any of the other Transaction Documents shall preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.
 
 
 

 
SECTION 19.        Rights Are Cumulative.  All rights and remedies of the Pledgee with respect to the Pledged Collateral, whether established by this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or by law, shall be cumulative and may be exercised concurrently or in any order.
 
SECTION 20.         Indemnity.  The Pledgor agrees:
 
 
(a)
to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and its respective, employees, consultants, officers, directors, shareholder, partners, successors and assigns against and from all liabilities, losses, and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to the taking or the failure to take action in respect of any transaction effected under this Agreement or in connection with the lien provided for herein, including, without limitation, any and all excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral.
 
 
(b)
to pay and reimburse the Pledgee upon demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) that the Pledgee may incur in connection with (i) the custody, use or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral, including the reasonable expenses of re-taking, holding, preparing for sale or lease, selling or otherwise disposing of or realizing on the Pledged Collateral, (ii) the exercise or enforcement of any rights or remedies granted hereunder, under the Debenture or otherwise available to it (whether at law, in equity or otherwise), or (iii) the failure by the Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
 
The liabilities of the Pledgor under this Section 20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
 
SECTION 21.        Severability.  The provisions of this Agreement are severable.  If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such provision or part thereof in any other jurisdiction, or any other provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.
 
SECTION 22.        Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.
 
SECTION 23.        Amendments; Entire Agreement.  This Agreement is subject to modification only by a writing signed by the parties.  To the extent that any provision of this Agreement conflicts with any provision of the Purchase Agreement or the Debenture, the provision giving the Pledgee greater rights or remedies shall govern, it being understood that the purpose of this Agreement is to add to, and not detract from, the rights granted to the Pledgee under the Purchase Agreement and the Debenture.  This Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the Debenture and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
