10.3Expenses, Etc.


(a)Costs and Expenses. The parties shall pay their own expenses with respect this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice from the Lender, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including such expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the Loans.


(b)Indemnification by the Borrower.

(b)Assignments by Lender.  The Lender may at any time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment and the Loans) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required for an assignment to an Affiliate of the Lender, or, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person.

In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of any Loan, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty.




10.7Captions. The section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.


10.8Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

(c)Alternative Process. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the Lender to serve any such process or summonses in any other manner permitted by applicable law.


(d)Waiver of Venue, Etc. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in subsection (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

10.11Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.


10.12Severability. If any provision hereof is found by a court to be invalid or unenforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law the parties agree that such invalidity or




19









unenforceability shall not impair the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.
