(c) If, while this Agreement is in effect, the Pledgor becomes entitled to receive or receives any stock certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate representing a stock dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights, whether as an addition to, in substitution of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Stock or otherwise, the Pledgor agrees to accept the same as agent for the Pledgees, to hold the same in trust on behalf of and for the benefit of the Pledgees, and to deliver the same promptly upon receipt to the Pledgees in the exact form received, with the endorsement of the Pledgor when necessary and/or appropriate undated “medallion” stock or other powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the Pledgees, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for the Obligations.

(b)  In furtherance of the foregoing powers of the Pledgees, the Pledgor hereby authorizes and appoints each Pledgee, with full powers of substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Pledgor, in its name, place and stead, to take any and all such action as each Pledgee, in his or its sole discretion, may deem necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the exercise of the aforesaid powers. Such power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest, and shall be irrevocable until the Satisfaction Date. Without limitation of the foregoing, such power of attorney shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by reason of any act of the Pledgor or by operation of law. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be deemed to require or impose any duty upon a Pledgee to exercise any of the rights or powers granted herein.
 
(c)  The foregoing rights and powers granted to the Pledgees, and the foregoing power of attorney, shall be fully binding upon any person who may acquire any beneficial interest in any of the Pledged Stock or any other property held or received by the Pledgees hereunder.

(ii) sell any or all of the Pledged Stock upon credit or for future delivery, without being in any way liable for failure of the purchaser to pay for the subject Pledged Stock; and

(c)  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require the Pledgees to effect any sale or disposition of any Pledged Stock at any time, or to consummate any proposed public or private sale at the time and place at which same was initially called. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Pledgees shall, subject to any further conditions imposed by this Agreement, at all times following the occurrence of an Event of Default, have the right to use or deal with the Pledged Stock as if the Pledgees were the outright owners thereof, and to exercise any and all rights and remedies, as a secured party in possession of collateral or otherwise, under any and all provisions of law.

(d)  The Pledgor and Pledgees agrees that upon release of the Pledged Stock after the occurrence of an Event of Default, such Pledged Stock will not be subject to the terms of any standstill agreement or lock-up agreement.

(e)  Following the occurrence and during the existence of an Event of Default, the Pledgor will cooperate and provide such certificate, resolutions, representations, legal opinions and all other matters necessary to facilitate a transfer or sale of any part of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Rule 144. Subject to holding period set forth in Rule 144, the Pledgor is unaware of any impediment to the resale of the Pledged Stock in reliance on Rule 144 by the Pledgees upon an Event of Default. The Pledgor will not take any action that would impede or limit the Pledgees’ ability to sell all the Pledged Stock upon an Event of Default, pursuant to Rule 144. For so long as any Pledged Stock is subject to this Agreement, no Pledgor will sell any security from Options Media Group Holdings, Inc. which such sale would or could be aggregated with sales by the Pledgees of Pledged Stock pursuant to Rule 144. The Pledgor represents that the Notes were issued in bona fide loan transactions.
