willful misconduct. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Bank against and hold it harmless from any and all (a) losses, liabilities, or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Bank, and (b) any and all actions, claims,
demands or suits made or brought by any Person (including, without limitation, the Borrower), becoming due, arising under, out of, as a result of, in connection with or related to, this Agreement, the Loans or the Credit Facility, provided the same

the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, (b) waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that the Borrower may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in
any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, and (c) consents to the service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court by the mailing of copies of such process to the Borrower by certified or registered
mail at the Borrower’s address set forth herein for the purpose of giving notice.

the provisions of the Financing Documents and any of the Obligations as fully as the Bank, provided that the Bank shall continue to have the unimpaired right to enforce the provisions of the Financing Documents and any of the Obligations as to so
much of the Financing Documents and/or the Obligations that it has not sold, assigned or transferred. Additionally, the Bank may sell or grant to any other Person participations in all or any part of the Obligations or all or any part of the
Financing Documents. In connection with and prior to and after any such sale, transfer, assignment or participation, the Bank may disclose and furnish to any prospective or actual purchaser, transferee, assignee or participant, any and all reports,
financial statements and other information obtained by the Bank at any time and from time to time in connection with the Obligations, any of the Financing Documents or otherwise. The Borrower will cooperate with the Bank to a commercially reasonable
extent in connection with any such assignment and will execute and deliver such consents and acceptances to any such assignment, amendments to this Agreement in order to effect any such assignment (including, without limitation, the appointment of
the Bank as agent for itself and all assignees) and a new or replacement promissory note for the Note in conjunction with any such assignment; provided, that the Borrower’s Indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under this Agreement and the
other Financing Documents will not be increased by reason of any such assignment.
