You also understand and acknowledge that we may provide to market data collectors, such as league table, or other service providers to the lending industry, information regarding the closing date, size, type, purpose of, and parties to, the Senior Secured Facilities.













The Commitment Party will manage, in consultation with you, all aspects of the syndication, including decisions as to the selection of institutions to be approached and when they will be approached, when commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate, the allocation of the
commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Commitment Party will have no responsibility other than to arrange the syndication as set forth herein and in no event shall the Commitment Party be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.


At the request of the Commitment Party, you agree to assist in the preparation of a version of each Confidential Information Memorandum or other Information Material (a “Public Version”) consisting exclusively of information with respect to you and your subsidiaries, the Target and its subsidiaries and the Acquisition that is either publicly available or not material with respect to you and your subsidiaries, the Target and its subsidiaries, any of your or the Target’s respective securities or the Acquisition for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (such information, “Non-MNPI”).  Such Public Versions, together with any other information prepared by you or the Target or your or its affiliates or representatives and conspicuously marked “Public” (collectively, the “Public Information”), which at a minimum means that the word “Public” will appear prominently on the first page of any such information, may be distributed by us to prospective Lenders who have advised us that they wish to receive only Non-MNPI (“Public Side Lenders”).  You acknowledge and agree that, in addition to Public Information and unless you promptly notify us otherwise, (a) drafts and final definitive documentation with respect to the Senior Secured Facilities, (b) administrative materials prepared by the Commitment Party for prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, allocations and funding and closing memoranda) and (c) notifications of changes in the terms of the Senior Secured Facilities may be distributed to Public Side Lenders.

In connection with our distribution to prospective Lenders of any Confidential Information Memorandum and, upon our request, any other Information Materials, you will execute and deliver to us a customary authorization letter authorizing such distribution and, in the case of any Public Version thereof or other Public Information, representing that it only contains Non-MNPI. Each Confidential Information Memorandum will be accompanied by a disclaimer exculpating you and us with respect to any use thereof and of any related Information Materials by the recipients thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the commencement nor the completion of syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities shall be a condition to the availability of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date.
The Commitment Party acknowledges that the Company, as part of the syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities, would like to increase the amount of the Revolving Facility to $100 million subject to the receipt of sufficient commitments from Lenders pursuant to such syndication efforts (it being understood that the commitment under this Commitment Letter to provide the Revolving Facility is limited to $75 million).


		
	4.
	Information


You hereby represent and warrant that with respect to any information relating to you, or to your knowledge, any information relating to the Target and its subsidiaries (a) all information (including all Information Materials), other than the Projections and information of a general economic or industry specific nature (the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a whole, does not or will not, when furnished to us, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (giving effect to all 











supplements thereto) and (b) the financial projections and other forward-looking information (the “Projections”) that have been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time furnished to us (it being recognized by the Commitment Party that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ from the projected results, and such differences may be material). You agree that if, at any time prior to the Closing Date and thereafter until completion of our syndication efforts, you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect if such Information or Projections were furnished at such time and such representations were remade, in any material respect, then you will (or, with respect to the Information and Projections relating to the Target and its subsidiaries, will use commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that (with respect to Information and Projections relating to the Target and its subsidiaries, to your knowledge) such representations when remade would be correct, in all material respects, under those circumstances. You understand that in arranging and syndicating the Senior Secured Facilities we may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof.
