in its sole discretion to promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent the requested original document bearing an original manual signature,
to the extent required or advisable to be delivered in connection with any program made available to the Administrative Agent or any of
its affiliates by the Federal Reserve, U.S. Treasury Department or any other federal or state regulatory body.
