2.LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
1.1Promise to Pay.  Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions, accrued and unpaid interest, fees and charges thereon and all other amounts owing hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
1.2[Reserved].
1.3Term Loan.
(a)Availability.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank shall make an advance to Borrowers on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to Fifty-Two Million Dollars ($52,000,000) (the “Term Loan”).  Bank’s obligation to lend hereunder shall terminate upon the making of the Term Loan on the Closing Date.  Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Term Loan for working capital and general corporate purposes and to repay existing outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower Representative.  Once repaid, the Term Loan may not be reborrowed.
(b)Repayment.  Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing thereafter on the first day of each successive month through the Term Loan Maturity Date, Borrowers shall make consecutive monthly payments of (x) equal principal, in an amount equal to the quotient of (i) twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans on the Amortization Date divided by (ii) twelve (12), plus (y)  accrued and unpaid interest.  For illustrative purposes, in the event that no portion of the Term Loans are prepaid prior to the Amortization Date and the aggregate outstanding principal of all Term Loans on the Amortization Date equals Fifty-Two Million Dollars ($52,000,000), the amount of monthly principal payments on and after the Amortization Date  will equal Eight Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand, Six Hundred Sixty Six Dollars and Sixty-Seven cents ($866,666.67). Any and all unpaid Obligations, including principal and any accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Term Loan, other fees and other sums, if any, shall be due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date.  The Term Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.3(c) and 2.3(d).
(c)Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration.  If the Term Loan is accelerated following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrowers shall promptly, but in any event within two Business Days,  pay to Bank an amount equal to the sum of all outstanding principal plus any accrued and unpaid interest, plus all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate or any late fee, if applicable.
(d)Permitted Prepayment of Term Loan.  Borrowers shall have the option to prepay  the Term Loan in increments of no less than $5,000,000, provided Borrowers provide written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Term Loan at least 5 Business Days prior to such prepayment, and pay, on the date of such 
			
	274337441 v12











prepayment an amount equal to the sum of all outstanding principal plus any accrued and unpaid interest, plus all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate or any late fee, if applicable.
1.4Bank Services.  At a Borrower’s request, Bank may make available certain Bank Services from time to time, including without limitation any commercial credit card program offered through US Bank National Association, Canada Branch (the “Credit Card Facility”), and all such Bank Services shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral.  The terms and conditions of the Credit Card Facility shall be set forth in Bank’s standard US Bank Canada Commercial Card Acknowledgement and Indemnity Agreement, which shall be entered into by the applicable Borrower as a condition to the Credit Card Facility.  Each Borrower party to the Credit Card Facility agrees to pay amounts due pursuant to the Credit Card Facility on demand by Bank, and acknowledges that the Credit Card Facility may be terminated at any time upon prior written notice by Bank.   
1.5Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.  
(e)Interest Rate.  The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall accrue interest from and after the Closing Date, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Term SOFR Rate plus (ii) the Applicable Margin.
(f)Default Rate.  Immediately, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (unless otherwise directed by Bank in its sole discretion), the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrowers pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations.  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.5(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank. 
(g)Payment; Interest Computation.  Interest is payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month and shall be computed on the basis of a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable, for the actual number of days elapsed.  In computing interest, (i) all payments received after 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on any day shall be deemed received at the opening of business on the following Business Day, and (ii) the date of the making of any Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded.  
(h)Maximum Interest.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the parties’ intent not to contract for, charge or receive interest at a rate that is greater than the maximum rate permissible by law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall deem applicable hereto (the “Maximum Rate”).  If a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that a Borrower has actually paid to Bank an amount of interest in excess of the amount that would have been payable if all of the Obligations had at all times borne interest at the Maximum Rate, then such excess interest actually paid by Borrowers shall be applied as follows:  first, to the payment of principal outstanding in respect of the Credit Extensions; second, after all principal is repaid, to the payment of Bank’s accrued interest, costs, expenses, professional fees and any other Obligations; and third, after all Obligations are repaid, the excess (if any) shall be refunded to Borrowers.
(i)Adjustment to Interest Rate.  The Term SOFR Rate shall be adjusted at the commencement of a new Interest Period.
1.6Fees and Charges.  Borrowers shall pay to Bank all Bank Expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) incurred through and after the Closing Date, when due (or, if no stated due date, within two Business Days after receipt of invoice by Bank). Borrower has paid to Bank a good faith deposit of $50,000 (the “Good Faith Deposit”) to initiate Bank’s due diligence review process. The Good Faith Deposit will be applied to Bank Expenses incurred through the Closing Date.
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or in a separate writing by Bank, the fees specified this Section 2.6 are fully-earned as of the Closing Date, and in no event shall any Borrower be entitled to any credit, rebate, refund, reduction, proration or repayment of any fees or charges earned by Bank pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the suspension or termination of Bank’s obligation to make loans and advances hereunder and notwithstanding the required payment date for such fees or charges.
1.7Payments; Credits; Application of Payments. 
(a)All payments to be made by Borrowers under any Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest and all fees, charges, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made in immediately available funds in Dollars, without setoff, recoupment or counterclaim, before 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date when due.  Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time are considered 
2
			
	274337441 v12











received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be due the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.  Unless otherwise notified by Bank in writing, Bank shall initiate debit entries to any Deposit Accounts as authorized on the Debit Authorization for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrowers owe Bank when due.  These debits shall not constitute a set-off.  If the Debit Authorization arrangement is terminated for any reason, Borrowers shall promptly deliver a new Debit Authorization with respect to another Deposit Account of a Borrower and until such new Debit Authorization is effective, shall make all payments due to Bank at Bank’s address specified in Section 10, or as otherwise notified by Bank in writing.  Except to the extent otherwise requested in writing by Borrower, including pursuant to any disbursement letter or other request for credit extensions, any amounts to be funded or otherwise paid by Bank to a Borrower may be credited in accordance with the Credit Authorization. 
(b)No Borrower shall have a right to specify the order or the loan accounts to which Bank shall allocate or apply any payments made by a Borrower to Bank or otherwise received by Bank under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not expressly specified elsewhere in this Agreement.
1.8Taxes.
(j)Except as required by applicable law, payments received by Bank from the Loan Parties under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes.  However, if at any time any Governmental Authority, applicable law, regulation or international agreement requires any Loan Party (as determined in the good faith discretion by any Loan Party) to make any withholding or deduction from any such payment or other sum payable hereunder to Bank, then (i) the applicable Loan Party shall withhold or make such deductions as such Loan Party determines to be required, (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (iii) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Non-Excluded Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such required withholding or deduction, Bank receives a net sum equal to the sum that Bank would have received had no withholding or deduction been required.  Borrower Representative shall, upon written request, furnish Bank with proof reasonably satisfactory to Bank indicating that the Loan Parties have made such withholding payment.  The agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties and Bank contained in this Section 2.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and shall apply to any successor, assignee or participant (or other transferee) of Bank or any Loan Party as of the date such Person becomes party to, or otherwise obligated under, this Agreement, provided, however, that no participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under this Section 2.8(a) with respect to any participation than the participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.  For purposes of this Section 2.8, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(k)To the extent Bank is entitled to an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to payments made under the Loan Documents, Bank shall, from time to time, as reasonably requested by Borrower Representative, provide such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Representative as will permit such payment to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, Bank shall, if reasonably requested by Borrower Representative, deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower Representative as will enable any Loan Party to determine whether or not Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.8(c)(i), (c)(ii)(A), (c)(ii)(B), (c)(ii)(C), (c)(ii)(D), and 2.8(e) below) shall not be required if in Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Bank.  Each Person that becomes a successor, assignee or participant (or other transferee) of Bank pursuant to Section 12.2 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to Sections 2.8(b), 2.8(c), 2.8(d), and 2.8(e), as applicable, as if it were “Bank” (it being understood that in the case of a participation, the participant may deliver such forms and statements to Bank).
(l)Without limiting the foregoing, Bank shall deliver to Borrower Representative on the date of this Agreement (and thereafter as reasonably requested by Borrower Representative): 
(i)If Bank is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC (a “U.S. Person”), Bank shall deliver, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrower Representative), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(ii)If Bank is not a U.S. Person, Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower Representative (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Borrower 
3
			
	274337441 v12











Representative) on or prior to the date on which it becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower Representative), whichever of the following is applicable to it:
(A)    in the case it claims the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(B)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(C)    in the case it claims the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Borrower Representative, to the effect that it is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRC, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as applicable; or 
(D)    to the extent it is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
(iii)Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower Representative (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Borrower Representative)  on or prior to the date on which it becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower Representative), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(c)Bank agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered under Section 2.8(c) and 2.8(e) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower Representative in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(d)If a payment made to Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the IRC, as applicable), Bank shall deliver to Borrower Representative at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower Representative such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the IRC) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Representative as may be necessary for any Loan Party to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that Bank has complied with Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this subsection (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
(e)Without duplication of the Loan Parties’ obligations under Section 2.8(a), each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify Bank, within ten days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes paid or payable by or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Bank and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Representative by Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  
(f)As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.8, Borrower Representative shall deliver to Bank the original or certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment (if any) or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Bank.
(g)If Bank receives a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or amounts with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8, it shall pay to Borrower Representative an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by a Borrower under this Section 2.8 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Bank, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental 
4
			
	274337441 v12











Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers pursuant to this subsection (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Bank in the event Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This subsection shall not be construed to require Bank to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrowers or any other Person.
1.9Continuation.  Any SOFR Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower Representative giving irrevocable notice in a Notice of Continuation to the Bank, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Exhibit A, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such SOFR Loan; provided that no SOFR Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided further that if the Borrower Representative shall fail to have timely delivered a Notice of Continuation, Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have elected to continue such SOFR Loan as a SOFR Loan having the same Interest Period effective on the last day of such Interest Period. 
1.10Inability to Determine Interest Rate; Benchmark Transition Event.  
(m)If prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any SOFR Loan, Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion to or a continuation thereof, for any reason that (a) SOFR or Term SOFR Rates have ceased or will cease to be available for the available Interest Period(s), permanently or indefinitely; or (b) for any reason that SOFR or Term SOFR Rates for all available Interest Periods are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative (or generally used or accepted as a benchmark rate for U.S. Dollar denominated syndicated or bilateral credit facilities) or do not, or as of a specified future date will not, comply with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks (each a “Benchmark Transition Event”), then Bank shall be entitled to give notice thereof (by telephone to be confirmed the same day in writing) or by electronic communication to the Borrowers. On the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding SOFR Loan occurring on or after the effective date of such notice, the interest on such SOFR Loan shall cease to be calculated on the basis of a Term SOFR Rate and subject to Section 2.10(b), shall commence to be calculated at the option of Bank (exercised by further notice in writing to Borrower Representative) on the basis of the sum of: (A) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by Bank and the Borrowers giving due consideration to (1) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the relevant Governmental Authority or (2) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement to the Term SOFR Rate and (B) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment (the replacement benchmark rate chosen by Bank pursuant to the foregoing, the “Replacement Benchmark Rate”).  
If the Replacement Benchmark Rate would at any time be less than the Floor, the Replacement Benchmark Rate will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
(n)In respect of any Benchmark Transition Event: 
(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, and notice of the Replacement Benchmark Rate has been given to Borrower Representative and become effective, such Replacement Benchmark Rate will replace the applicable SOFR Benchmark Rate, for all purposes under this Agreement and every other Loan Document without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document except for the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes determined by Bank to be necessary or desirable and written notice of which have been given to the Borrower. 
(ii)In connection with the implementation of a Replacement Benchmark Rate, Bank will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(iii)Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Bank under this Section 2.10 including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in Bank’s sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.10.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at any time the Term SOFR Rate for any particular Interest Period (a) is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by Bank in its reasonable discretion or (b) 
5
			
	274337441 v12











the SOFR Administrator has provided a public statement or there has been publication of information announcing that such Interest Period is or will be no longer representative, then (i) Bank may provide written notice of such event to Borrower Representative and upon the effective date of such notice, the definition of Interest Period will be automatically amended to delete reference to such unavailable or un-representative Interest Period without the consent, approval or any other action by any of the parties to this Agreement or any of the other loan or security documents, and (ii) if such Interest Period subsequently becomes available or representative, then Bank may, in its reasonable discretion, reinstate such Interest Period under this Agreement by written notice to the Borrower Representative.
1.11[Reserved].
1.12Illegality; Requirements of Law. 
(o)Illegality. If Bank determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Bank to make, maintain or fund Credit Extensions with interest determined by reference to any applicable SOFR Benchmark Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any applicable SOFR Benchmark Rate, then, on notice thereof by Bank to the Borrower Representative, any obligation of Bank to make or continue the affected SOFR Loans shall be suspended until Bank notifies Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from Bank, prepay all SOFR Loans on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans. Upon any such prepayment, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 
(p)Requirements of Law. If any Change in Law:
(i)shall subject Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (B) Connection Income Taxes) on the Term Loan, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
(ii)shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by Bank (except any reserve requirement reflected in SOFR or the Term SOFR Rate); or 
(iii)impose on Bank or the interbank eurodollar market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Term Loan; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Bank of making, continuing or maintaining the Term Loan determined with reference to SOFR or the Term SOFR Rate, or to reduce the amount of any sum receivable or received by Bank or hereunder in respect thereof (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, in any such case of clauses (i) through (iii) above, upon the request of Bank, the Borrowers will promptly pay Bank, any additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. If Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.
(h)If Bank reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement or the Term Loan to a level below that which Bank could have achieved but for such change in such Requirement of Law (taking into consideration Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for any such reduction suffered.
(i)A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section submitted by Bank to Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Borrowers shall pay Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. Failure or delay on the part of Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or Section 2.12(c) for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that Bank notifies Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).  The obligations of the Borrowers arising pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

1.44Material Adverse Effect.  An event or circumstance has occurred which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)stop advancing money or extending credit for any Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between any Loan Party and Bank;
18
			
	274337441 v12

(f)verify the amount of, demand payment of and performance under, and collect any Accounts and General Intangibles, settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, and notify any Person owing a Loan Party money of Bank’s security interest in such funds;
(g)make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral.  Loan Parties shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates.  Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred.  Each Loan Party grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;
(h)apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of any Loan Party it holds, or (ii) amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of such Loan Party;
(i)ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral.  Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, a Loan Party’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, a Loan Party’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;
(j)place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Account Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
(k)demand and receive possession of any Loan Party’s Books; and
(l)exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
1.54Power of Attorney.  Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s partners, managers, officers, agents or employees) as its lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, exercisable solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to:  (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify Account Debtors of Bank’s security interest and Liens in the Collateral; (b) endorse such Loan Party’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (c) sign such Loan Party’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to Account Debtors; (d) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under such Loan Party’s insurance policies; (f) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; (g) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits; and (h) dispose of the Collateral.  Each Loan Party further hereby appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s partners, managers, officers, agents or employees) as its lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing to: (i) sign such Loan Party’s name on any documents and other Security Instruments necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of, or maintain the priority of, Bank’s security interest in the Collateral until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnity or reimbursement obligations or other obligations which, by their terms, survive termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied in full and the Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions has terminated, (ii) execute and do all such assurances, acts and things which such Loan Party is required, but fails to do under the covenants and provisions of the Loan Documents; (iii) take any and all such actions as Bank may reasonably determine to be necessary or advisable for the purpose of maintaining, preserving or protecting the Collateral or any of the rights, remedies, powers or privileges of Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  Bank’s foregoing appointment as each Loan Party’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or is known to exist, reimbursement obligations or other obligations which, by their terms, survive termination of the Agreement) have been fully repaid, in cash, and otherwise fully performed and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder.  
19
			
	274337441 v12











1.55Protective Payments.  If a Loan Party fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which such Loan Party is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which may be required to preserve the Collateral, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the Default Rate.  Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower Representative with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance or making such payment at the time it is obtained or paid or within a reasonable time thereafter.  No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
1.56Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank shall have the right to apply in any order any funds in its possession, whether payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations.  Bank shall pay any surplus to Loan Parties by credit to the Deposit Account designated by Loan Parties or to other Persons legally entitled thereto.  Loan Parties shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency.  If Bank, directly or indirectly, enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.
1.57Bank’s Liability for Collateral.  So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person.  Loan Parties bear all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
1.58No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by each Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative.  Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude Bank from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.  
1.59Demand Waiver.  Each Loan Party waives presentment, demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments or chattel paper.
1.60Shares.  Each Loan Party recognizes that Bank may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Shares, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in federal securities laws and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.  Bank shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Shares for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under federal securities laws or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Bank may, at its option, and with two Business Days prior notice to any Loan Party (unless such Event of Default is an Event of Default specified in Section 8.4 or 8.5, in which case no such notice need be given), and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Bank under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, or any other ownership or consensual rights (including any dividend or distribution rights) in respect of the Shares owned by such Loan Party, but under no circumstances is Bank obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Bank duly exercises its right to vote any of such Shares, each Loan Party hereby appoints Bank, such Bank’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Shares in any manner Bank deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be.  The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

SEEK FROM BANK UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING ANY THEORY IN TORTS), ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
This Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
12.GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.61Termination Prior to Maturity; Survival.  All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or is known to exist, any reimbursement obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied in full, in cash and Bank no longer has any obligation to extend credit to a Borrower.  So long as Borrowers have satisfied the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or is known to exist, any reimbursement obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement), and all Bank Services which are to survive the termination of this Agreement have been cash collateralized, as required by Bank, this Agreement may be terminated prior to the maturity of all Credit Extensions outstanding by Borrowers, effective three Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank.  Those obligations that are expressly specified in this Agreement as surviving this Agreement’s termination shall continue to survive notwithstanding this Agreement’s termination. 
1.62Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party.  No Loan Party may assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Bank’s discretion).  Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to any Loan Party, to sell, transfer, assign, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall not assign any interest in the Loan Documents to any Person who is in the reasonable discretion of Bank is (a) a direct competitor of Borrower or (b) a vulture or distressed debt fund.  Bank, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the applicable lender, and the applicable commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Term Loans or other Obligations owing to, each lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Bank, the Borrowers and the applicable lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Each lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other Obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, Term Loans or its other Obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, Term Loan or other Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) and proposed Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Bank and such lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  
1.63Indemnification.  Each Loan Party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Bank and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Bank (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against:  (i) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (including such claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities based on liability in tort, including strict liability in tort) (collectively, “Claims”) claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (ii) all losses or expenses (including Bank Expenses) in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by such Indemnified Person as a result of, following from, consequential to, or arising from transactions among Bank and Loan Parties (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses to the extent directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  This Section 12.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.  Each Loan Party agrees to pay, and to save Bank harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all excise, sales or other similar taxes (excluding taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Bank) that may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or this Agreement. This Section 12.3 shall survive until all statutes of limitation with respect to the Claims, losses, and expenses for which indemnity is given shall have run.
1.64Borrower Liability.  If any Person is joined to this Agreement as a Borrower, the following provisions shall apply: Each Borrower may, acting singly, request Credit Extensions hereunder.  Each Borrower 
22
			
	274337441 v12











hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Credit Extensions hereunder.  Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made hereunder, regardless of which such Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.  Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, and (b) any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy.  Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating such Borrower to the rights of Bank under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by a Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by a Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.  Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section shall be null and void.  If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 
1.65Time of Essence.  Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.
1.66Severability of Provisions.  Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.
1.67Correction of Loan Documents.  Bank may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties.
1.68Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration.  No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by the party against which enforcement or admission is sought.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document.  Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver.  The Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements.  All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations among the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents merge into the Loan Documents.
1.69Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Documents.  This Agreement and each other Loan Document (except as expressly otherwise specified therein) may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one agreement.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures (including in “.pdf” format) or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
1.70Confidentiality.  In handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates (such Subsidiaries and Affiliates, together with Bank, collectively, “Bank Entities”); (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, Bank shall use its best efforts to obtain any prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order and in connection with reporting obligations applicable to Bank, including pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; (d) to Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit; (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service providers of Bank so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Bank with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein.  Confidential information does not include information that is either: (i) in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the public domain (other than as a result of its disclosure by Bank in violation of this Agreement) after disclosure to Bank; or (ii) disclosed to Bank by a third party, if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.  Bank Entities may use a Borrower’s name and logo, and include a brief description of the relationship among Borrowers and Bank, in Bank’s marketing materials.  Bank may use confidential information for the development of databases, reporting purposes, and market 
23
			
	274337441 v12











analysis so long as such confidential information is aggregated and anonymized prior to distribution, and Bank has ownership of the information and analysis so developed.  The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
1.71Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses.  In any action or proceeding among Loan Parties and Bank arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.
1.72Borrower Representative.  Each Borrower hereby appoints Borrower Representative to act as its exclusive agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, with respect to all matters related to the borrowing and repayment of any Credit Extension).  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) Borrower Representative may execute such documents on behalf of any Borrower as Borrower Representative deems appropriate in its sole discretion and each Borrower shall be bound by and obligated by all of the terms of any such document executed by Borrower Representative on its behalf, (b) any notice or other communication delivered by Bank hereunder to Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Borrower and (c) the Bank shall accept (and shall be permitted to rely on) any document or agreement executed by Borrower Representative on behalf of Borrowers (or any of them).  Each Borrower shall act through the Borrower Representative for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent any provision in this Agreement requires any Borrower to interact in any manner with Bank, such Borrower shall do so through Borrower Representative.
1.73Captions.  The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
1.74Construction of Agreement.  The parties mutually acknowledge that they and their attorneys have participated in the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement.  In cases of uncertainty this Agreement shall be construed without regard to which of the parties caused the uncertainty to exist.
1.75Publicity; Press Releases.  Bank may issue a press release announcing the financing pursuant to this Agreement with the prior written consent of Borrower and such press release may display any of Borrower’s logos. Bank may display any of Borrower’s logos and name on its website and other marketing materials consistent with Bank’s practices with respect to its loan portfolio.  
1.76Relationship.  The relationship of the parties to this Agreement is determined solely by the provisions of this Agreement.  The parties do not intend to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, trust, fiduciary or other relationship with duties or incidents different from those of parties to an arm’s-length contract.
1.77Third Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to: (a) confer any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any persons other than the express parties to it and their respective permitted successors and assigns; (b) relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any person not an express party to this Agreement; or (c) give any person not an express party to this Agreement any right of subrogation or action against any party to this Agreement.
13.GUARANTY
1.78Guaranty.  Each Guarantor who has executed this Agreement as of the date hereof, together with each Loan Party who accedes to this Agreement as a Guarantor after the date hereof pursuant to Section 6.11 hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to Bank the prompt and complete payment and performance by Borrowers and the other Loan Parties when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations (provided, however, that “Obligations” of a particular Guarantor shall not include any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor).  In furtherance of the foregoing, and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:
(a)each Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be the immediate, direct, and primary obligation of such Guarantor and shall not be contingent upon Bank’s exercise or enforcement of any remedy it or they may have against a Borrower, or any other Guarantor or other Person liable in respect of the Obligations, or all or any portion of the Collateral; and
(b)Bank may enforce this guaranty notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Bank and a Borrower or any other Guarantor with respect to the existence of any Event of Default.
1.79Maximum Liability.  Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 13.5).  
24
			
	274337441 v12











1.80Termination.  The guaranty pursuant to this Section 13 shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date.
1.81Unconditional Nature of Guaranty.  No payment made by a Borrower, Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by Bank from a Borrower, Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Termination Date.
1.82Right of Contribution.  If in connection with any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder any rights of contribution arise in favor of such Guarantor against one or more other Guarantors, such rights of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 13.6.  The provisions of this Section 13.5 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to Bank, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to Bank for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.
1.83No Subrogation.  Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by Bank, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Bank against a Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by Bank for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from a Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, in each case, until the Termination Date.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the Termination Date, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for Bank, shall be segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to Bank in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to Bank, if required), to be applied to the Obligations, irrespective of the occurrence or the continuance of any Event of Default.
1.84Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations.  Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by Bank may be rescinded by Bank and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by Bank, and this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, in accordance with their respective terms, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by Bank for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.  Bank shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for the guarantee pursuant to this Section 13 or any property subject thereto.
1.85Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional; Guarantor Waivers; Guarantor Consent.  Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by Bank upon the guaranty contained in this Section 13 or acceptance of this guaranty.  The Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this guaranty.  All dealings between Borrowers, Guarantors and Bank shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this guaranty.  Each Guarantor further waives:
(a)diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any Borrower or any of the other Guarantors with respect to the Obligations; 
(b)any right to require Bank to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower, such Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any other Person, to proceed against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person, to proceed against or exhaust any of the Collateral, to give notice of the terms, time and place of any public or private sale of personal property security constituting the Collateral or other collateral for the Obligations or to comply with any other provisions of Section 9-611 of the Code (or any equivalent provision of any other applicable law) or to pursue any other right, remedy, power or privilege of Bank whatsoever;
(c)the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Obligations; 
(d)any defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate or other authority or any other defense of any Borrower, such Guarantor or any other Person; 
25
			
	274337441 v12











(e)any defense based upon Bank’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Obligations;
(f)any rights to set-offs and counterclaims;
(g)any defense based upon an election of remedies (including, if available, an election to proceed by nonjudicial foreclosure) which destroys or impairs the subrogation rights of such Guarantor or the right of such Guarantor to proceed against any Borrower or any other obligor of the Obligations for reimbursement; and
(h)without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law that limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Agreement.  
Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 13 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guaranty or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by Bank, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Borrower or any other Person against Bank, or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Borrower for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under this guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance, (iv) any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, (v) any merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any or all of the assets or Equity Interests of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, (vi) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Bank’s interests in and rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including Bank’s right to receive payment of the Obligations, or any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Bank’s interests in and to any of the Collateral, (vii) Bank’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction in any Insolvency Proceeding related to any of the Obligations, and (viii) any other guaranty, whether by such Guarantor or any other Person, of all or any part of the Obligations or any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of any Guarantor to Bank.  When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, Bank may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto.  Any failure by Bank to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of Bank against any Guarantor.  For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 
Each Guarantor further unconditionally consents and agrees that, without notice to or further assent from any Guarantor:  (a) the principal amount of the Obligations may be increased or decreased and additional indebtedness or obligations of a Borrower or any other Persons under the Loan Documents may be incurred, by one or more amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (b) the time, manner, place or terms of any payment under any Loan Document may be extended or changed, including by an increase or decrease in the interest rate on any Obligation or any fee or other amount payable under such Loan Document, by an amendment, modification or renewal of any Loan Document or otherwise; (c) the time for a Borrower’s (or any other Loan Party’s) performance of or compliance with any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under any Loan Document may be extended, or such performance or compliance waived, or failure in or departure from such performance or compliance consented to, all in such manner and upon such terms as Bank may deem proper; (d) in addition to the Collateral, Bank may take and hold other security (legal or equitable) of any kind, at any time, as collateral for the Obligations, and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, exchange, sell, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend such security and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action, and may apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; (e) Bank may discharge or release, in whole or in part, any other Guarantor or any other Loan Party or other Person liable for the payment and performance of all or any part of the Obligations, and may permit or consent to any such action or any result of such action, and shall not be obligated to demand or enforce payment upon any of the Collateral, nor shall Bank be liable to any Guarantor for any failure to collect or enforce payment or performance of the Obligations from any Person or to realize upon the Collateral, and (f) Bank may request and accept other guaranties of the Obligations and any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of a Loan Party to Bank and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend any such guaranty and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action; in each case (a) through (f), as Bank may deem advisable, and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting this Agreement. 
26
			
	274337441 v12











1.86Reinstatement.  The guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of a Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, a Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
1.87No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies.  Bank shall not by any act (except in writing in accordance with Section 12.8), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default, as applicable.  No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of Bank, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  A waiver by Bank of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Bank would otherwise have on any future occasion.  The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
1.88Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.  Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse Bank for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under this guaranty or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel.
