Section 2.4 and other provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the
intention of the parties hereto that such priority provisions in such documents shall be
read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each
other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as
aforesaid, the terms and provisions of Section 2.7 shall control and govern, and
thereafter this Section 2.4 shall control and govern.



     2.5. Intentionally Omitted.



     2.6. Interest Rates: Rates, Payments, and Calculations.




     (a) Interest Rates. Except as provided in clause (c) below, all Obligations
that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest
on the Daily Balance thereof as follows (i) if the relevant Obligation is a LIBOR Rate Loan,
at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the LIBOR Rate Margin and (ii) otherwise,
at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Base Rate Margin.



          The foregoing notwithstanding, at no time shall any portion of the Obligations bear interest
on the Daily Balance thereof at a per annum rate less than 4%. To the extent that interest accrued
hereunder at the rate set forth herein would be less than the foregoing minimum daily rate, the
interest rate chargeable hereunder for such day automatically shall be deemed increased to the
minimum rate.





     (b) Intentionally Omitted.




     (c) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default (and at the election of the Lender), all Obligations that have been charged to the

-22-









 






Daily Balance thereof at a per annum rate equal to 2 percentage points above the per
annum rate otherwise applicable hereunder.




     (d) Payment. Except as provided to the contrary in Section 2.13(a), interest
and all other fees payable hereunder shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first
Business Day of each month at any time that any Obligations or the Commitment are
outstanding. Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender, from time to time, without prior notice
to Borrower, to charge such interest and fees, all Lender Expenses (as and when incurred)
and all other payments as and when due and payable under any Loan Document to Borrower’s
Loan Account, which amounts thereafter shall constitute Advances hereunder and shall accrue
interest at the rate then applicable to Advances hereunder. Any interest not paid when due
shall be compounded by being charged to Borrower’s Loan Account and shall thereafter
constitute Advances hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to
Advances that are Base Rate Loans hereunder.




     (e) Computation. All interest and fees chargeable hereunder shall be computed on the
basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In the event the Base Rate
is changed from time to time hereafter, the rates of interest hereunder based upon the Base
Rate automatically and immediately shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to
such change in the Base Rate.




     (f) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest
rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection
herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Borrower and the Lender, in
executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of
interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that,
anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates of interest
or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto,
as of the Closing Date, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum
as allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum,
whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to
the extent of such excess.




     (g) PIK Interest. The Borrower may elect to increase the then outstanding principal
amount of the Advances by the amount of all accrued and unpaid interest as of the date any
such interest is due and payable under Section 2.6(d) (an “Interest Payment
Date”, and such interest being the “PIK Interest”) and the principal amount of
the Advances shall be deemed so increased by such amount as of such Interest Payment Date.
The Borrower shall be deemed to have given the Lender irrevocable notice of its election to
increase the Advances by the PIK Interest amount with respect to each Interest Payment Date
unless it notifies the Lender otherwise by not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such
Interest Payment Date.

          (i) in the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership,
liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in connection therewith, relative
to the Borrower or to its creditors, as such, or to its property, and in the event of any
proceedings for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Borrower,
whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then (x) the holders of Senior
Indebtedness shall be paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior
Indebtedness before the Lender is entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly), or
make any demands for, any payment on account of the Obligations hereunder and (y) until the
holders of Senior Indebtedness are paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts
constituting Senior Indebtedness, any payment or distribution to which the Lender would
otherwise be entitled shall be made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness; and




          (ii) if any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or
other property, in respect of this Agreement shall (despite these subordination provisions)
be received by the Lender (unless solely in its capacity as a holder of Senior Indebtedness)
in violation of clause (i) before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in
full in cash, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and
shall be paid over or delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness (or their
representatives), ratably according to the respective aggregate amounts remaining unpaid
thereon, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash.




     (b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, no present or future holder of Senior
Indebtedness shall be prejudiced in its right to enforce the subordination of this Agreement
by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower or by any act or failure to act on
the part of such holder or any trustee or agent for such holder. The Lender and the
Borrower hereby agree that the subordination of this Agreement is for the benefit of the
holders of Senior Indebtedness and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are obligees under

will impair, as between the Borrower and the Lender, the obligations of the Borrower, which
are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Lender the Obligations hereunder as and when
due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or is intended to or will
affect the relative rights of the Lender and other creditors of the Borrower other than the
holders of Senior Indebtedness.



     2.8. Crediting Payments.



          The receipt of any payment item by the Lender shall not be considered a payment on account
unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to the
Lender’s Account. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrower
shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly.
Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed
received by the Lender only if it is received into the Lender’s Account on a Business Day on or
before 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time). If any payment item is received into the Lender’s Account on a
non-Business Day or after 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have
been received by the Lender as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business
Day.




     2.9. Designated Accounts.



          The Lender is authorized to make the Advances under this Agreement based upon telephonic or
other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person, or without
instructions if pursuant to Section 2.6(d). Borrower agrees to establish and maintain the
Designated Accounts with the Designated Account Banks for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of
the Advances requested by Borrower and made by the Lender hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by
the Lender and Borrower, any Advance requested by Borrower and made by the Lender hereunder shall
be made to the Designated Accounts designated by the Borrower for such purpose.




     2.10. Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations.

Account”) on which Borrower will be charged with all Advances made by the Lender to Borrower or
for Borrower’s account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or hereunder, including,
accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.8,
the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by the Lender from Borrower or for
Borrower’s account. The Lender shall render statements regarding the Loan Account to Borrower,
including principal, interest, fees, and including an itemization of all charges and expenses
constituting Lender Expenses owing, and such statements, absent manifest error, shall be
conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrower
and the Lender unless, within 30



-25-









 






days after receipt thereof by Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to the Lender written objection
thereto describing the error or errors contained in any such statements.




     2.11. Fees.



          Borrower shall pay to the Lender the following fees and charges, which fees and charges shall
be non-refundable when paid (irrespective of whether this Agreement is terminated thereafter):





Unused Line Fee. On the first day of each month during the term of this Agreement, an
unused line fee in the amount equal to 0.50% per annum times the result of (i) the Maximum
Revolver Amount, less (ii) the average Daily Balance of Advances that were outstanding
during the immediately preceding month.



     2.12. Intentionally Omitted.



     2.13. LIBOR Option.




     (a) Interest and Interest Payment Dates. In lieu of having interest charged at the
rate based upon the Base Rate, Borrower shall have the option (the “LIBOR Option”)
to have interest on all or a portion of the Advances be charged at a rate of interest based
upon the LIBOR Rate. Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable on the earliest of (i)
(A) if the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan has a duration of 6 months,
each of (1) the first Business Day 90 or more days following the first day of such Interest
Period and (2) the last day of such Interest Period applicable thereto or (B) if the
Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan has a duration of less than 6 months,
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of
Default in consequence of which the Lender has elected to accelerate the maturity of all or
any portion of the Obligations, or (iii) termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms
hereof. On the last day of each applicable Interest Period, unless Borrower properly has
exercised the LIBOR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR
Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate
Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Borrower no longer shall have the option to request that Advances bear interest
at the LIBOR Rate and the Lender shall have the right to convert the interest rate on all
outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder.




     (b) LIBOR Election.




          (i) Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, elect to exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying the Lender prior
to 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least 3 Business Days prior to the commencement of the
proposed Interest Period (the “LIBOR Deadline”). Notice of Borrower’s election of
the LIBOR Option for a permitted portion of the



-26-









 






Advances or Term Loan and an Interest Period
pursuant to this Section shall be made
by delivery to the Lender of a LIBOR Notice received by the Lender before the LIBOR
Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by the Lender before the LIBOR Deadline (to be
confirmed by delivery to the Lender of a LIBOR Notice received by the Lender prior to 5:00
p.m. (Chicago time) on the same day).




          (ii) Each LIBOR Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.




          (iii) Borrowers shall have not more than 10 LIBOR Rate Loans in effect at any given
time. Borrower only may exercise the LIBOR Option for LIBOR Rate Loans of at least $100,000
and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.




     (c) Prepayments. Borrower may prepay LIBOR Rate Loans at any time.




     (d) Special Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate.




          (i) The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by the Lender on a prospective basis to take into
account any additional or increased costs to the Lender of maintaining or obtaining any
eurodollar deposits or increased costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent
to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including changes in tax laws
(except changes of general applicability in corporate income tax laws), which additional or
increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate.
In any such event, the Lender shall give Borrower notice of such a determination and
adjustment and, upon its receipt of the notice from the Lender, Borrower may, by notice to
the Lender (y) require the Lender to furnish to Borrower a statement setting forth the basis

more of the Foreign Companies or Companies as liable with respect thereto if such additional
Foreign Companies or Companies, as applicable, were not liable with respect to the original

or restrictive to the applicable Foreign Company or the applicable Company, (iv) if the

any payment due or owing hereunder or with respect to the Unsecured Loan Facility, and (e) maintain

          Modify or change its fiscal year or their method of accounting (other than as may be required
to conform to GAAP or SEC) or enter into, modify, or terminate any agreement currently existing, or
at any time hereafter entered into with any third party accounting firm or service bureau for the

-45-









 







Borrower) of any Foreign Company or any Company except for transactions that are in the
ordinary course of Companies’ business, upon fair and reasonable terms and that are no less

          Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, upon the occurrence, and during the
continuation, of an Event of Default, the Lender may do any one or more of the following, all of
which are authorized by Borrower:





          (a) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable;




          (b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under
this Agreement;




          (c) Terminate this Agreement as to any future liability or obligation of the Lender.



     9.2. Remedies Cumulative.



          The rights and remedies of the Lender under this Agreement and all other agreements shall be
cumulative. The Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as
provided by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed an
election, and no waiver by the Lender of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver.
No delay by the Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.




X. TAXES AND EXPENSES.




          If Borrower fails to pay any monies (whether taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in
the case of leased properties or assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) due to
third Persons, or fails to make any deposits or furnish any required proof of payment or deposit,
all as required under the terms of this Agreement, then, the Lender, in its sole discretion and
without prior notice to Borrower, may do any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same
or any part thereof, (b) set up such reserves in Borrower’s Loan Account as the Lender deems
necessary to protect the Lender from the exposure created by such failure, or (c) in the case of
the failure to comply with Section 6.8 hereof, obtain and maintain insurance policies of
the type described in Section 6.8 and take any action with respect to such policies as the
Lender deems prudent. Any such amounts paid by the Lender shall constitute Lender Expenses and any
such payments shall not constitute an agreement by the Lender to make similar payments in the
future or a waiver by the Lender of


-49-









 







any Event of Default under this Agreement. The Lender need not inquire as to, or contest the
validity of, any such expense, tax, or Lien and the receipt of the usual official notice for the
payment thereof shall be conclusive evidence that the same was validly due and owing.




XI. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.




     11.1. Demand; Protest; etc.



          To the fullest extent permitted by law and except as otherwise provided hereunder, Borrower
waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and
nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of
documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guaranties at any time held by the Lender on which
Borrower may in any way be liable.




     11.2. Intentionally omitted.



     11.3. Indemnification.



          Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and
hold the Lender-Related Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest
extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions,
investigations, proceedings, and damages, and all reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements and
other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith (as and when they are incurred
and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or
incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution,
delivery, enforcement, performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with
respect hereto) of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the monitoring of
Borrower’s compliance with the terms hereof, and (b) with respect to any investigation, litigation,
or proceeding related to this Agreement, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided
hereunder or the use and registration or attempted registration of the Intellectual Property
subject to this Agreement (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or
any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto (all the foregoing,
collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary
notwithstanding, Borrower shall have no obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section
11.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally
determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified
Person. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the
Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with
respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which Borrower was required to indemnify the Indemnified
Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be
indemnified and reimbursed by Borrower with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING
INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN
WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED
PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

XIV. ASSIGNMENTS; SUCCESSORS.




     14.1. Assignments.




          (a) The Lender may assign and delegate to any assignee (an “Assignee”) that is
an Eligible Transferee all, but not less than all, of the Obligations, the Commitment and
the other rights and obligations of the Lender hereunder; provided, however,
that Borrower may continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with
the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment,
together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the
Assignee, have been given to Borrower by the Lender and the Assignee, and (ii) the Lender
and its Assignee have delivered to Borrower an Assignment and Acceptance. Anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the payment of any fees shall not be
required and the Assignee need not be an Eligible Transferee if such assignment is in
connection with any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, or other disposition of all or
any substantial portion of the business or loan portfolio of the Lender.




          (b) From and after the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower that it has received
an executed Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto
and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant
to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of the Lender
hereunder, and (ii) the Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder
have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights
(except with respect to Section 11.3 hereof) and be released from any future
obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering
all or the remaining portion of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,
the Lender shall cease to be a party hereto), and such assignment shall effect a novation
between Borrower and the Assignee; provided, however, that nothing contained
herein shall release the Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this
Agreement, including the Lender’s obligations under Section 17.8 of this Agreement.



-53-









 






          (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender and the
Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as
follows: (1) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution,
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (2) the Lender makes no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Companies
or the performance or observance by Borrower of any of their obligations under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (3) such Assignee confirms
that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (4) such Assignee will, independently and without
reliance upon the Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement, (5) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as the
Lender and (6) such Assignee expressly agrees to the terms of Section 2.7.




          (d) Immediately upon the Lender’s receipt of the fully executed Assignment and
Acceptance (with a copy to the Borrower), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to
the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee.




          (e) Intentionally omitted.




          (f) In connection with any such assignment or proposed assignment, the Lender may,
subject to the provisions of Section 17.8, disclose all documents and information
which it now or hereafter may have relating to Borrower and its respective businesses.



     14.2. Successors.



          This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of
each of the parties; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement
or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lender’s prior written consent and any prohibited
assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lender shall
release Borrower from its Obligations. The Lender may assign this Agreement and its rights and
duties hereunder pursuant to Section 14.1 hereof and, except as expressly required pursuant
to Section 14.1 hereof, no consent or approval by Borrower is required in connection with
any such assignment.




XV. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.




-54-









 








     15.1. Amendments and Waivers.


No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no
consent with respect to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by the Lender and Borrower and then any such waiver or consent shall
be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.




     15.2. Intentionally Omitted.



     15.3. No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies.



          No failure by the Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or, any
other Loan Document, or delay by the Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver
thereof. No waiver by the Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the
extent specifically stated. No waiver by the Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish the
Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this
Agreement. The Lender’s rights under this Agreement will be cumulative and not exclusive of any
other right or remedy that the Lender may have.




XVI. Intentionally Omitted.




XVII. GENERAL PROVISIONS.




     17.1. Effectiveness.



          This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by Borrower and the Lender.




     17.2. Section Headings.



          Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is
compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire
Agreement.




     17.3. Interpretation.



          Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved
against the Lender or Borrower, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the
contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted
according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and
intentions of all parties hereto.




     17.4. Severability of Provisions.



-55-









 





          Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this
Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.




     17.5. Amendments in Writing.



          This Agreement only can be amended by a writing in accordance with Section 15.1.




     17.6. Counterparts; Telefacsimile Execution.



          This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on
separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an
original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be equally as
effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering
an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not
affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall
apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.




     17.7. Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations.



          If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by Borrower or the transfer to the Lender of
any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state
or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating
to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or
transfers of property (collectively, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if the Lender is required
to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the
reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof
that the Lender is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs,
expenses, and attorneys fees of the Lender related thereto, the liability of Borrower automatically
shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had
never been made.




     17.8. Confidentiality.



          The Lender agrees that material, non-public information regarding Borrower, its operations,
assets, and existing and contemplated business plans shall be treated by the Lender in a
confidential manner, and shall not be disclosed by the Lender to Persons who are not parties to
this Agreement, except: (a) to attorneys for and other advisors, accountants, auditors, and
consultants to the Lender, (b) to Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Lender, provided that any such
Subsidiary or Affiliate shall have agreed to receive such information hereunder subject to the
terms of this Section 17.8, (c) as may be required by statute, decision, or judicial or
administrative order, rule, or regulation, (d) as may be agreed to in


-56-









 









advance by Borrower or its Subsidiaries or as required by any Governmental Authority pursuant
to any subpoena or other legal process, (e) as to any such information that is or becomes generally
available to the public (other than as a result of prohibited disclosure by the Lender), (f) in
connection with any assignment, prospective assignment, sale, prospective sale, participation or
prospective participations, or pledge or prospective pledge of the Lender’s interest under this
Agreement, provided that any such assignee, prospective assignee, purchaser, prospective purchaser,
participant, prospective participant, pledgee, or prospective pledgee shall have agreed in writing
to receive such information hereunder subject to the terms of this Section, and (g) in connection
with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or
adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this
Agreement. The provisions of this Section 17.8 shall survive the payment in full of the
Obligations. Anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, the obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein, as they relate to
the transactions contemplated hereby, shall not apply to the federal tax structure or federal tax
treatment of such transactions, and each party hereto (and any employee, representative, or Lender
of any party hereto) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the
federal tax structure and federal tax treatment of such transactions (including all written
materials related to such tax structure and tax treatment). The preceding sentence is intended to
cause the transactions contemplated hereby to not be treated as having been offered under
conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or any successor provision)
of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 6011 of the IRC, and shall be construed in a
manner consistent with such purpose. In addition, each party hereto acknowledges that it has no
proprietary or exclusive rights to the tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby or any
tax matter or tax idea related thereto.




     17.9. Integration.



          This Agreement reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement,
oral or written, before the Closing Date.




     17.10. Intentionally omitted.
