(b) All Loans shall be made by the Lenders on a pro rata basis, calculated for  each Lender based on its Percentage.  2.2 Loan Options.  Each Loan shall be a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan, as  selected by the Borrower.  During any period that any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of  Default exists, the Borrower shall no longer have the option of electing LIBOR Rate Loans, and  during such period all Loans shall be automatically converted to (on the last day of the Interest  Period therefor) Base Rate Loans only, it being understood, however, that the foregoing shall not  be construed to waive, amend or modify any right or power of the Lenders and the Administrative  Agent hereunder, including all rights to terminate the Commitments and declare the Loans  immediately due and payable.  2.3 Borrowing Procedures.  (a) Loan Requests.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice  by (x) telephone (promptly confirmed in writing substantially in the form of Exhibit C (a  “Loan Request”)) or (y) by delivering a Loan Request, not later than 11:00 a.m. at least (i)  three (3) Business Days (or such later date agreed to by the Administrative Agent and  Majority Lenders) prior to the requested Funding Date or, in the case of a continuation or  conversion, the continuation or conversion date, as applicable, in the instance of a  Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans (or continuation or conversion, as applicable) or (ii) one  (1) Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date in the instance of a Borrowing of  Base Rate Loans, of each requested Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent shall  promptly advise each Lender of its receipt of such Loan Request; provided, that each such  Loan Request shall be in a minimum amount of Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000).  Each  Loan Request from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent shall specify (i) the aggregate  amount of the Borrowing requested (or continued or converted, as applicable), (ii) the Type  of Loans being borrowed, continued or converted, as applicable, and (iii) if such  Borrowing, continuation or conversion is of LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period with  respect thereto (subject to the limitations set forth in the definition of Interest Period).  Any  Loan Request not specifying the Type of Borrowing shall be deemed a request for a  





 






  28    Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans.  The Borrower shall make no more than four (4)  Borrowings during the Availability Period.  (b) Funding of Administrative Agent.  Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Funding  Date of each Borrowing, each Lender shall provide the Administrative Agent at the  Administrative Agent’s Office (or such other place as the Administrative Agent shall  designate from time to time) with immediately available funds covering such Lender’s  Percentage of such Borrowing and the Administrative Agent shall pay over such funds to  the Borrower upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the documents, if any, required  under Section 11 with respect to such Loan and provided all of the conditions precedent to  the funding of the requested Loans have been satisfied.  2.4 Continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans.  Subject to Section 2.2, each LIBOR Rate  Loan shall automatically continue as a LIBOR Rate Loan on the last day of the current Interest  Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan for an Interest Period of equivalent duration, unless paid in full  on such last day, or unless one or more of the conditions in Section 7.2 are in effect, in which case  such LIBOR Rate Loan shall convert into a Base Rate Loan, to begin on the last day of such current  Interest Period.  Each continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be pro rated among the applicable  outstanding Loans of all Lenders.  2.5 Maturity of Loans.  Unless required to be sooner paid pursuant to the other  provisions of this Agreement, the Loans shall mature and be due and payable in full on the Maturity  Date.  2.6 Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of each Lender hereunder to  make its Loan and to make payments pursuant to this Agreement are several and not joint.  The  failure of any Lender to make its Loan or to make any payment under this Agreement on any date  required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on  such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its  Loan or to make its payment under this Agreement  2.7 Term Loan Facility.  The credit facility evidenced by this Agreement is a term  loan facility.  Accordingly, the Borrower will not have the right to reborrow any amounts repaid  or prepaid to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  2.8 Optional Increase in Term Loan Facility.  (a) The Borrower may at any time, and from time to time, after the Closing  Date, by a written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the  Lenders), request that the Aggregate Commitment Amount be increased (a “Commitment  Increase”) by an amount (in aggregate for all such requests) not to exceed Two Hundred  Million Dollars ($200,000,000) and each such Commitment Increase shall be in the  minimum amount of Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000).   At the time of sending such  notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify (i) the  time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be  less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders)  and (ii) if such request occurs after the end of the Availability Period, the amortization  





 






  29    schedule of each additional Loan made pursuant to this Section 2.8.  Any additional Loan  will amortize at the same annual rate of amortization as the Loans that are in effect when  such additional Loan is funded.  Such annual rate of amortization on the initial Loan will  be calculated by comparing the annual aggregate scheduled principal payments of the  initial Loan to the unpaid principal balance of such initial Loan at the time the additional  Loan is funded.   (b) Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period  whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal  to, greater than or less than its applicable Percentage of such requested increase.  Any  Lender that fails to respond within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to  increase its Commitment.  (c) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the  Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder.  To achieve the full amount of a  requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval  shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Borrower may also invite  one or more Eligible Assignees to become parties hereto as Lenders (each, an “Additional  Lender”).  (d) If the Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the  Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall mutually determine the effective date (the  “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase.  The Administrative  Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such  increase and the Increase Effective Date.  (e) As a condition precedent to any Commitment Increase:  (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate  signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower dated as of the Increase Effective  Date, stating that: (A) the representations and warranties contained in Section 9 are  true and correct on and as of such Increase Effective Date, before and after giving  effect to the Commitment Increase, as though made on and as of such Increase  Effective Date, (B) no Material Adverse Effect has occurred since the date of the  financial statements most-recently delivered pursuant to Section 10.1(a), (C) no  Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists before or after giving effect  to such additional Loan and (D) the Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance  with all covenants set forth in Sections 10.12, 10.13 and 10.14 hereof; and  (ii) on or before such Increase Effective Date, the Administrative Agent  shall have received, for further distribution to each Lender (including each  Additional Lender) a joinder agreement dated as of such Increase Effective Date  from each Additional Lender, if any, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory  to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  (f) On each Increase Effective Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth  in Section 2.8(e), (i) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including each  





 






  30    Additional Lender) and the Borrower of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be  effected on such Increase Effective Date, (ii) each applicable Additional Lender shall  become a party to this Agreement with the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder,  (iii) the Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the relevant information with  respect to each Additional Lender on such date and (iv) Schedule I shall be deemed  amended to reflect the applicable Commitment Increase.  Each Additional Lender shall,  before 11:00 a.m. on the Increase Effective Date, make available for the account of its  applicable lending office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office,  in same day funds, an aggregate amount to be distributed to the other Lenders for the  account of their respective applicable lending offices such that, after giving effect to such  distribution, each Lender has a ratable share (calculated based on its Commitment as a  percentage of the Aggregate Commitment Amount after giving effect to such Commitment  Increase) of the Loans.  The Principal Payment Amounts for each Payment Date shall be  increased to reflect this Commitment Increase as necessary based on the amortization  schedule provided by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8(a).  The Borrower  acknowledges that, in order to maintain the Loans in accordance with each Lender’s ratable  share thereof, a reallocation of the Commitments as a result of a non-pro rata increase in  the Aggregate Commitment Amount may require prepayment of all or portions of the  Loans on the date of such increase (and any such prepayment shall be subject to the  provisions of Section 6.2).  SECTION 3. EVIDENCE OF LOANS.  (a) The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts  or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary  course of business.  The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and  each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by  the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record  or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the  Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Liabilities.  In the event  of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the  accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts  and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.  (b) Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent,  the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent)  a Note which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records.   Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type and  amount of each of its Loans, the Interest Period therefor (if applicable) and payments with  respect thereto.  SECTION 4. PRINCIPAL PAYMENT AMOUNTS, INTEREST AND FEES.  4.1 Principal Payment Amounts.  On each Principal Payment Date during the term  of this Agreement, the Borrower shall repay the Loans in an amount equal to the Principal Payment  Amount.  The aggregate principal balances of the Loans, together with accrued interest thereon  and all other amounts owed by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, shall  





 






  31    be payable in full on the earlier to occur of (i) the scheduled Maturity Date and (ii) the date on  which the Liabilities have been declared payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.2  hereto.  4.2 Interest.  Subject to Section 4.3 and Section 7.7,  (a) Base Rate Loans.  The unpaid principal of the Base Rate Loans shall bear  interest prior to maturity at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Base Rate in effect  from time to time plus (ii) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable on  each Payment Date and at maturity.  (b) LIBOR Rate Loans.  The unpaid principal of the LIBOR Rate Loans shall  bear interest prior to maturity at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the LIBOR Rate  in effect for each applicable Interest Period plus (ii) the Applicable Margin in effect from  time to time, payable on each Payment Date and at maturity.  (c) Maximum Interest Rate.  The amount of interest charged on the Loans shall  be subject to the provisions of Section 14.21 hereto.  4.3 Default Interest.  The Borrower shall pay interest on any amount of principal of  any Loan which is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise,  after as well as before judgment, accruing from the date such amount shall have become due to the  date of payment thereof in full at the Default Rate.  Interest after maturity shall be payable on  demand.  4.4 Fees.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, for  their own respective accounts, on (i) the Closing Date the fees described in the Fee Letter, and (ii)  on the first Principal Payment Date, the Unused Fee, if any.  4.5 Method of Calculating Interest and Fees.  Interest calculated based on the Prime  Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,  and paid for actual days elapsed, calculated as to each applicable period from the first day thereof  to the last day thereof.  All other interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year  consisting of 360 days and paid for actual days elapsed, calculated as to each applicable period  from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.  SECTION 5. DEFAULTING LENDERS.  5.1 Defaulting Lenders.  (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such  time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable  law:  (i) Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to  approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this  Agreement shall be restricted as specified in the definition of Majority Lenders.  





 






  32    (ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest,  fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such  Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to  Section 12 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting  Lender pursuant to Section 6.3 shall be applied at such time or times as may be  determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any  amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;  second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Potential Default or Event of  Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting  Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as  determined by the Administrative Agent; third, so long as no Potential Default or  Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a  result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the  Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's  breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fourth, to such Defaulting  Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that  if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect  of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y)  such Loans were made or at a time when the conditions specified in Section 11.1  were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of,  owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to  the payment of any Loans of, owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as  all Loans to Non-Defaulting Lenders are in proportion to its Percentage. Any  payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender  that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender and each  Lender irrevocably consents hereto.  (b) Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent  agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent  will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice  and subject to any conditions specified therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable,  purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other  actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and  funded to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the  applicable Facility, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided  that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments  made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and  provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected  parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or  release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a  Defaulting Lender.  SECTION 6. PAYMENTS, OFFSETS, PREPAYMENTS AND REDUCTION OR  TERMINATION OF THE COMMITMENTS; BORROWING BASE.  6.1 Payments Generally.  Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all  payments hereunder (including payments with respect to the Loans) shall be made without set-off  





 






  33    or counterclaim and shall be made in coin or currency of the United States which at the time of  payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in immediately available  funds by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, pro rata  according to the unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them.  All such payments shall be  made to the Administrative Agent, prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date due at the Administrative Agent’s  Office or at such other place as may be designated by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower  in writing.  Any payment received after 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business  Day.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in immediately available funds to each  Lender its share of all such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such  Lender.  Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due  on a date other than a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business  Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of payment of interest or any  fees.  For purposes of the imposition of any tax (other than taxes on net income and franchises),  levy, charge or withholding of any nature or any variation thereof or any penalty with respect to  the maintenance or fulfillment of the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement, whether  directly or by such being imposed on or suffered by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the  Collateral Agent, all payments hereunder shall be made by the Borrower from sources within the  United States.  Any payments or prepayments to be applied to the outstanding amount of any Loans  shall be applied to the Loans held by the Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders ratably (based  upon the outstanding amount of all Loans held by all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders)  until each Lender (including any Defaulting Lender) has its Percentage of all of the outstanding  amount of the Loans, and the balance, if any, of such payments or prepayments shall be applied to  the Loans of all Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages.  6.2 Prepayments.  (a) Mandatory.  If the Facility Usage exceeds the Borrowing Base (for the sake  of clarity, such a condition shall exist (A) on the date (the “Borrowing Base Deficiency  Date”) that the Borrowing Base Certificate is delivered by the Borrower to the  Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.1(d) if such Borrowing Base Certificate shall  indicate that, as of the computation date thereof, the Facility Usage exceeded the  Borrowing Base, and (B) only if the Borrower shall not have cured such deficiency prior  to such Borrowing Base Deficiency Date), the Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days after  such Borrowing Base Deficiency Date, make a mandatory prepayment, without premium  or penalty, except as may be required pursuant to Section 7.3, to the Administrative Agent  in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.  (b) Optional.  (i) General Prepayments.  The Borrower may from time to time  (subject to the notice and minimum prepayment provisions set forth in this  clause (i)), upon prior written notice, in the form attached as Exhibit G hereto,  received by the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly advise each Lender  thereof, in any case not later than one (1) Business Day after the Administrative  Agent has received the notice) at least three (3) Business Days prior to any  prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans and one (1) Business Day prior to any  prepayment of Base Rate Loans, prepay the principal of the Loans in whole or in  





 






  34    part without premium or penalty; provided that (x) any partial prepayment of  principal pursuant to this clause (b)(i) shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000  and (y) any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of  an Interest Period therefor shall be subject to Section 7.3.  (ii) Special Prepayments.  The Borrower may from time to time prepay  without premium or penalty, except as provided in Section 7.3, any Loan pursuant  to the provisions of Section 7.5.  Any prepayment of the principal of the Loans  pursuant to this clause (b)(ii) shall include accrued interest to the date of  prepayment on the principal amount being prepaid.  (c) Prepayments Generally; Application.  (i) Any prepayment pursuant to Section 6.2(a) or 6.2(b) above shall be  applied to such Loans as the Borrower shall direct or, in the absence of such  direction: first, to any LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period ending on the date  of such prepayment, second, to any Base Rate Loans outstanding on such date, and  third, to such other Loans as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine.  (ii) Each prepayment under this Section 6.2 shall be made together with  accrued interest and any additional amount which is payable pursuant to Section  7.1, Section 7.3 or otherwise hereunder.  (iii) Each prepayment under this Section 6.2 shall be applied to reduce  all remaining scheduled Principal Payment Amounts (including the Principal  Payment Amount due on the Maturity Date) by a fraction, stated as a percentage,  the numerator of which is the amount of such prepayment and the denominator of  which is equal to the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Loans immediately  prior to such prepayment.  (iv) The Borrower shall promptly confirm in writing any telephonic  notice of prepayment in writing.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify  each Lender of its receipt of any notice of a prepayment and of the amount of such  Lender’s prepayment, in any case at the latest one Business Day after the  Administrative Agent has received notice thereof.  (v) For the avoidance of doubt, no prepayment of any portion of the  principal balances of the Loans may be reborrowed by the Borrower.  6.3 Offset.  In addition to and not in limitation of all rights of offset that any Lender  may have under applicable law, each Lender shall, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default  described in Section 12.1 or any Unmatured Event of Default described in Section 12.1(c), have  the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Liabilities owing to it (whether or not due)  any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of the Borrower then or thereafter with  such Lender or any Affiliate thereof, and each such Affiliate is hereby irrevocably authorized to  permit such setoff, provided that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the  provisions of Section 6.4.  





 






  35    6.4 Proration of Payments.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery  (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise) on account of any Loan in  excess of its pro rata share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all Lenders on account  of all Loans (including after giving effect to the loss of any payment or recovery by any other  Lender), such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans held  by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or  other recovery pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment  or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be  rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest unless  the Lender from which such payment is recovered is required to pay interest thereon, in which case  each Lender which is required to restore such purchase price shall pay its pro rata share of such  interest.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from the other Lenders  under this Section 6.4 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment  (including the right of set-off pursuant to Section 6.3) with respect to such participation as fully as  if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.  If  under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured  claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable,  exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the  Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.  6.5 Borrowing Base.  The borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base”) as of any date  shall be an amount equal to the total of:  (a) the sum of:  (i) 80% of the net investment of the Borrower in Direct Finance Leases  of SIA Container Equipment as recorded on the Borrower’s balance sheet  (determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied);  (ii) 83.33% of the result of (x) the Net Book Value of the Borrower’s  (not including any Subsidiary’s) SIA Container Equipment (not including the Net  Book Value, if any, of (A) any lost, stolen or destroyed SIA Container Equipment  to the extent the Net Book Value thereof (calculated as though not lost, stolen or  destroyed) exceeds $250,000, and such SIA Container Equipment has been off-hire  and no longer billed to a lessee for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, and (B)  any spare parts comprising any portion of SIA Container Equipment) minus (y)  Unsecured Vendor Debt and trade payables incurred in connection with the  acquisition of such SIA Container Equipment; and  (iii) 80% of the Book Value (net of reserves in accordance with GAAP)  of Casualty Receivables which are outstanding for one hundred twenty (120) days  or less (excluding Casualty Receivables from Affiliated Entities in excess of  $5,000,000 in the aggregate);   minus  (b) the sum of:  





 






  36    (i) the current portion of Subordinated Funded Debt;  (ii) 20% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings allocable to Commercial  Letters of Credit;  (iii) the outstanding principal amount of Total Senior Debt (other than  Indebtedness hereunder) secured by (x) Direct Finance Leases of SIA Container  Equipment, (y) SIA Container Equipment and/or (z) Casualty Receivables; and   (iv) accrued and unpaid interest on Total Senior Debt secured by (x)  Direct Finance Leases of SIA Container Equipment, (y) SIA Container Equipment  and/or (z) Casualty Receivables;  in each case, calculated in accordance with GAAP.  The Borrowing Base shall be set forth (showing all calculations) in a Borrowing Base  Certificate duly executed and delivered by an Authorized Officer.  Any Borrowing Base Certificate  delivered pursuant to Section 10.1(d) or 11.1(j) shall remain effective until delivery of a new  Borrowing Base Certificate pursuant to Section 10.1(d); provided that in connection with any  request for loans under the TCIL Credit Agreement, the Borrower may submit an interim updated  Borrowing Base Certificate showing the effect that the use of the proceeds of such loans will have  on item (a)(ii)(y), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) of the definition of “Borrowing Base”, it being understood  that to the extent necessary, such interim Borrowing Base Certificate may be prepared by the  Borrower using good faith reasonable estimates of the information contained therein.  Any such  updated interim Borrowing Base Certificate shall include a representation by an Authorized  Officer that (x) the proceeds of such Loans (or the relevant portion thereof) will be used to pay  Indebtedness of the type described in such item (a)(ii)(y), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) and (y) to the  extent necessary, such Borrowing Base Certificate was prepared using the Borrower’s good faith  reasonable estimates of the information contained therein.    (c) At no time shall the Facility Usage exceed the current Borrowing Base as shown  on the most recently delivered Borrowing Base Certificate.  SECTION 7. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO EURODOLLAR  RATE LOANS; CAPITAL ADEQUACY; TAXES.  7.1 Increased Cost.  (a) Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:  (i) 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 or participated in by, any  Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate);  (ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified  Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded  Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of  





 






  37    credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities  or capital attributable thereto; or  (iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other  condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans  made by such Lender or participation therein;  and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other  Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its  obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount  of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of  principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the  Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount  or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case  may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.  (b) Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any Change in Law  affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing  Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would  have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of  such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the  Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, to a level below that which such  Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in  Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s  holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower  will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender  or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.  (c) Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the  amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the  case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the  Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender  the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.  (d) Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender Issuing  Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of  such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be  required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred  or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender, notifies  the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and  of such Lender’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 (9) month  period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect  thereof).  





 






  38    7.2 LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not  Available; LIBOR Undesirable.  (a) Unascertainable.  If on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise  be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:  (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such  LIBOR Rate, or  (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects  the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the LIBOR Rate,  then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 7.2(c).  (b) Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.  If at any time any  Lender shall have determined that:  (i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which the  LIBOR Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by  compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or  application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any  such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or  (ii) such LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to  such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or  (iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount  in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which  the LIBOR Rate applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect  to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,  then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 7.2(c).  (c) Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights.  In the case of any event  specified in Section 7.2 (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the  Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 7.2 (b)  above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a  certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the  Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other  Lenders and the Borrower.  Subject to Section 7.7, upon such date as shall be specified in  such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of  (i) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (ii) such  Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select,  convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent  shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the  Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be,  determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer  exist.  If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under Section 7.2(a)  





 






  39    and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of,  conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Loan and such interest rate election has not yet  gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion  to or renewal of such Loan as a Base Rate Loan.  If any Lender notifies the Administrative  Agent of a determination under Section 7.2(b), the Borrower shall, subject to the  Borrower’s indemnification obligations under Section 7.3, as to any LIBOR Rate Loan of  the Lender applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such LIBOR Rate  Loan to a Base Rate Loan otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such  Loan in accordance with Section 6.2.  Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion  or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Loan otherwise  available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.  7.3 Indemnity.  The Borrower will indemnify each Lender against any loss or  expense which such Lender may sustain or incur, including any loss or expense sustained or  incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to effect, fund or  maintain a Loan, due to (a) any failure by the Borrower to make any payment when due of any  amount due hereunder in connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) any payment or prepayment  (including any prepayment pursuant to Section 7.3 or 7.5) of any LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other  than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, (c) any assignment of a LIBOR Rate Loan  on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the  Borrower pursuant to Section 7.5, or (d) any failure to convert a LIBOR Rate Loan into a Base  Rate Loan if required hereunder.  If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall  from time to time notify the Borrower, in writing, of the amount determined in good faith by such  Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and  averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to  indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense.  Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail  the basis for such determination.  Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such  Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.  7.4 Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation  under Section 7.1, or the Borrower is or will be required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional  amounts to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 7.6,  then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a  different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and  obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such  Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant  to Section 7.1 or Section 7.6, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such  Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such  Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any  Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.  7.5 Special Prepayment; Replacement of Lender.  If any Lender makes any demand  for payment of any amount pursuant to Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 7.6, gives any notice pursuant to  Section 7.2 or 7.3 or is a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then the  Borrower may, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, either (i) reduce or  terminate the Commitments of such Affected Lender and immediately prepay the applicable  outstanding Liabilities owed to such Affected Lender (or all outstanding Liabilities owed to such  





 






  40    Affected Lender in the case of a termination) so that, after giving effect to such prepayment, such  Affected Lender has a pro rata share (based on its revised Percentage after giving effect to such  reduction) of the outstanding Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and/or  (ii) cause such Affected Lender to assign its Commitments, its Loans and its interest in this  Agreement and the other Loan Documents to one or more other Eligible Assignees (any such  assignee, together with all Lenders other than such Affected Lender, the “Remaining Lenders”)  selected by the Borrower and acceptable to the Administrative Agent.  Any assignment made  pursuant to clause (ii) above shall be in accordance with Section 14.8 (but without giving effect to  any provision of such Section which restricts the minimum or maximum amount which is  permitted to be assigned).  Any Affected Lender that is replaced pursuant to clause (ii) of this  Section 7.5 shall be entitled to receive (x) from such Eligible Assignees to which its Commitments  and Loans are assigned, its pro rata share (based on its Percentage prior to giving effect to such  assignment) of the outstanding Loans and (y) from the Borrower, all accrued and unpaid interest  thereon, any other outstanding Liabilities owed to such Lender (to the extent not paid pursuant to  the immediately preceding clause (x)), and any additional amount which is payable pursuant to  Section 7.1 or otherwise hereunder.  If any reduction or termination of any Affected Lender’s Commitment is made pursuant to  clause (i) above, then (A) the Aggregate Commitment Amount shall be reduced by an amount  equal to the aggregate amount of the Commitment so reduced or terminated, and (B) each  Remaining Lender’s (and, in the case of a reduction, such Affected Lender’s) share or percentage  of the Aggregate Commitment Amount, as so reduced, shall be deemed proportionately adjusted;  it being understood that the amount of any Lender’s Commitment (as opposed to any Lender’s  share or percentage of the Aggregate Commitment Amount) shall not at any time be increased  without the consent of such Lender.  7.6 Taxes.    (a) FATCA.  For purposes of this Section 7.6, the term “applicable Law”  includes FATCA.  (b) Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any  obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or  withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law.  If any applicable Law  (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires  the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent,  then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or  withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant  Official Body in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax,  then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such  deduction or withholding of Indemnified Taxes has been made (including such deductions  and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 7.6) the  applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no  such deduction or withholding of Indemnified Taxes been made.  





 






  41    (c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall timely pay  to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the  Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.  (d) Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify each  Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any  Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to  amounts payable under this Section 7.6) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to  be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses  arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were  correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body.  A certificate as to  the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy  to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf  of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  (e) Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the  Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified  Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already  indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the  obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to  comply with the provisions of Section 14.10 relating to the maintenance of a Participant  Register, and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are  payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and  any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such  Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body.  A  certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the  Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby  authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time  owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the  Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the  Administrative Agent under this Section 7.6(e).  (f) Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes  by the Borrower to an Official Body pursuant to this Section 7.6 the Borrower shall deliver  to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such  Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or  other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  (g) Status of Lenders.    (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of  withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall  deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times  reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly  completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or  the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without  withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if  





 






  42    reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver  such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by  the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the  Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender 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 specified in  Section 7.6.(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the  Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would  subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would  materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.  (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the  Borrower is a U.S. Person,  (1) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower  and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender  under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the  Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such  Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;  (2) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled  to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall  be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a  Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the  Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:  a. in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming 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 originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN if 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 if 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 originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;  c. in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits  of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate  substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank”  within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the  Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign  corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”)  and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN if applicable); or  





 






  43    d. to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial  owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form  W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN if applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the  form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from  each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one  or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest  exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in  the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;  (3) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled  to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall  be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a  Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the  Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals 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 the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding  or deduction required to be made; and  (4) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document  would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail  to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in  Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower  and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times  reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed  by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such  additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as  may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations  under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations  under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for  purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the  date of this Agreement.  Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or  becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly  notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.  (h) Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion  exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been  indemnified pursuant to this Section 7.6 (including by the payment of additional amounts  pursuant to this Section 7.6), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such  refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 7.6 with  respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including  Taxes) of such indemnified party incurred in connection with obtaining such refund and  without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to  such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall  repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 7.6 (h) (plus  





 






  44    any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) in the event  that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Official Body.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.6 (h)), in no event will the  indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this  Section 7.6 (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable  net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to  indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or  otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect  to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any  indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its  Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.  (i) Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 7.6 shall survive the  resignation of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement  of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or  discharge of all Liabilities.  7.7 Benchmark Replacement Setting.Announcements Related to LIBOR.  On  March 5, 2021, the ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR (the “IBA”) and  the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, the regulatory supervisor for the IBA, announced in a public  statement the future cessation or loss of representativeness of overnight/Spot Next, 1-month, 3- month, 6-month and 12-month USD LIBOR tenor settings (collectively, the “Cessation  Announcements”).  (b) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein  or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in  Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior  to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if  a Benchmark Replacement is determined, in consultation with the Borrower, in accordance  with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark  Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all  purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting  and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent  of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark  Replacement is determined, in consultation with the Borrower, in accordance with clause  (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date,  such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and  under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New  York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark  Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or  consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the  Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such  Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders.  (c) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the  implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right  to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and,  





 






  45    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  or any other Loan Document.  (d) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative  Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (1) any occurrence of a  Benchmark Transition Event (other than a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to  USD LIBOR resulting from the Cessation Announcements), a Term SOFR Transition  Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement  Date, (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (3) the effectiveness of any  Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (4) the removal or reinstatement of any  tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (e) below and (5) the commencement or  conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or  election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or  group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting,”  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 its or their 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 titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”  (e) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the  contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with  the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (1) if the then-current Benchmark is a  term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR ) and either (A) any tenor for such  Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such  rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion  or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a  public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such  Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may  modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time  to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (2) if a tenor that was removed  pursuant to clause (1) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information  service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no  longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a  Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may  modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time  to reinstate such previously removed tenor.  (f) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of  the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any  request for a Loan bearing interest based on USD LIBOR, conversion to or continuation of  Loans bearing interest based on USD LIBOR to be made, converted or continued during  any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to  have converted any such request into a request for a Loan of or conversion to Loans bearing  





 






  46    interest under the Base Rate. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time  that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of  the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark,  as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.  (g) Secondary Term SOFR Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the  contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this  paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date  have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current  Benchmark, then, subject to consultation with the Borrower, (1) the applicable Benchmark  Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under  any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting (the “Secondary Term SOFR  Conversion Date”) and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or  further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document;  and (2) Loans outstanding on the Secondary Term SOFR Conversion Date bearing interest  based on the then-current Benchmark shall be deemed to have been converted to Loans  bearing interest at the Benchmark Replacement with a tenor approximately the same length  as the interest payment period of the then-current Benchmark; provided that, this paragraph  (g) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and  the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice.  (h) Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Section titled “Benchmark  Replacement Setting”:  “Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the  then-current Benchmark, as applicable, (x) if the then current Benchmark is a term rate or  is based on a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark that is or may be used for determining  the length of an Interest Period pursuant to this Agreement as of such date and not  including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed  from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to paragraph (v) of this Section titled  “Benchmark Replacement Setting”, or (y) if the then current Benchmark is neither a term  rate nor based on a term rate, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to  such Benchmark pursuant to this Agreement as of such date.  “Benchmark” means, initially, USD LIBOR; provided that if a Benchmark  Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as  applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to  USD LIBOR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable  Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced  such prior benchmark rate pursuant to paragraph (i) of this Section titled “Benchmark  Replacement Setting.”  “Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set  forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the  applicable Benchmark Replacement Date:   





 






  47    (1) the sum of: (A) Term SOFR and (B) the related Benchmark Replacement  Adjustment;   (2) the sum of: (A) Daily Simple SOFR  and (B) the related Benchmark  Replacement Adjustment;   (3) the sum of: (A) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the  Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark  for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (I) any selection or  recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such  a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (II) any evolving or then-prevailing market  convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current  Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (B)  the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;   provided that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is  displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to  time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided, further,  that, with respect to a Term SOFR Transition Event, on the applicable Benchmark  Replacement Date, the “Benchmark Replacement” shall revert to and shall be determined  as set forth in clause (1) of this definition. If the Benchmark Replacement as determined  pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark  Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the  other Loan Documents.

The Borrower and all of its Subsidiaries are each in good standing  (or its equivalent) and are duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where, because of the  nature of their respective activities or properties, failure to be in such good standing or so qualified  would have a Material Adverse Effect.  9.2 Authorization; Validity and Enforceability.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this  Agreement, the Notes, the Security and Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Collateral  Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party do not and will not present a  material conflict with, or constitute a material breach of, or default under (a) any provision of law,  (b) the memorandum of association or bye-laws of the Borrower, (c) any material agreement or  instrument binding upon the Borrower or (d) any court or administrative order or decree applicable  to the Borrower, and do not and will not require, or result in, the creation or imposition of any Lien  on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than Liens arising pursuant  to the Security and Intercreditor Agreement or the Intercreditor Collateral Agreement.  9.4 No Default.

  72    SECTION 12. EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.  12.1 Events of Default.  Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default  under this Agreement:  (a) Non-Payment.  Default in the payment, when due, (i) of any principal of  any Loan (including any mandatory prepayment) or (ii) of any interest on any Loan or any  fee or other amount payable hereunder and the continuance thereof for five (5) days;  provided, however, the Borrower shall be entitled to make such principal payment or  mandatory prepayment on the next succeeding Business Day if (x) such payment is due on  a Payment Date or Maturity Date that is not a Business Day or (y) the Borrower fails to  make such payment on its due date as the result of an administrative or technical error not  caused by the Borrower.  (b) Default or Acceleration of other Indebtedness.  A default or event of default  shall occur at any time under the terms of any other agreement involving any Indebtedness  under which the Borrower or Subsidiary of the Borrower may be obligated as a borrower  or guarantor, which individually or in the aggregate, exceeds $100,000,000 (other than (i)  any Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or to any other Restricted  Subsidiary and (ii) a default described in Section 12.1(a)), and such breach, default or event  of default consists of either (1) the failure to pay (any required notice of default having  been given and any period of grace permitted with respect thereto having expired) any  Indebtedness when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, required mandatory  prepayment or otherwise), or (2) a breach of a financial covenant thereunder.  (c) Insolvency.  The Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries becomes  insolvent, or generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they  mature, or applies for, consents to, or acquiesces in the appointment of a trustee, receiver  or other custodian for the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary or a substantial part of  the property of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, or makes a general assignment  for the benefit of creditors; or, in the absence of such application, consent or acquiescence,  a trustee, receiver or other custodian is appointed for the Borrower or any of its Restricted  Subsidiaries or for a substantial part of the property of the Borrower or any of its Restricted  Subsidiaries and is not discharged within sixty (60) days; or any proceeding under any  Debtor Relief Law is instituted by or against the Borrower or any of its Restricted  Subsidiaries and, if instituted against the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, is  consented to or acquiesced in by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary or remains for  sixty (60) days undismissed; or any warrant of attachment is issued against any substantial  part of the property of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which is not  released within sixty (60) days of service.  (d) ERISA.  A Termination Event occurs with respect to any Pension Plan if,  at the time such Termination Event occurs, such Pension Plan’s then “vested liabilities” (as  defined in section 3(25) of ERISA) would exceed the then value of such Pension Plan’s  assets by an amount greater than 3% of Consolidated Tangible Net Worth as of such date  and the Majority Lenders reasonably believe that such Termination Event may result in  material liability to the Borrower.  





 






  73    (e) Specific Defaults.  Failure by the Borrower to comply with or perform any  covenant set forth in (i) Section 10.2(a), 10.10 through 10.14, 10.21, or 10.23 or (ii) Section  10.5, 10.16, 10.17, 10.19, 10.20 or 10.22 and, in the case of this clause (e)(ii), such failure  to comply shall continue for ten (10) Business Days after the earlier of (x) the date upon  which an Authorized Officer of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary had actual  knowledge of such default or (y) the date upon which written notice thereof is given to the  Borrower by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  (f) Other Defaults; Obligations Under other Loan Documents.  Default in the  performance of any of the Borrower’s agreements herein set forth or in any other Loan  Document (subject to any applicable grace period in any such Loan Document) in any  material respect (and not constituting an Event of Default under any of the other clauses of  this Section 12.1) and continuance of such default for thirty (30) days after the earlier of  (i) the date upon which an Authorized Officer of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary  had actual knowledge of such default or (ii) the date upon which written notice thereof is  given to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  (g) Representations and Warranties.  Any representation or warranty of the  Borrower made in any Loan Document or any schedules, notices, certificates, reports or  instruments delivered in connection therewith shall prove incorrect in any material respect  when made and which (if curable) remains unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after  the first date on which an Authorized Officer has received written notice thereof.  (h) Change of Control.  A Change of Control shall occur.  (i) Final Judgments and Orders.  There shall be entered against the Borrower  or any Restricted Subsidiary one or more judgments or decrees in excess of the greater of  (x) $100,000,000 and (y) 3% of the Consolidated Tangible Net Worth in the aggregate at  any one time outstanding (excluding any judgments or decrees (i) that shall have been  outstanding less than sixty (60) calendar days from the entry thereof or (ii) for and to the  extent which the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary is insured and with respect to  which the insurer has assumed responsibility therefor in writing or for and to the extent  which such Person is otherwise indemnified if the terms of such indemnification are  satisfactory to the Majority Lenders), and either (A) enforcement proceedings shall have  been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or order or (B) there shall be any  period of thirty (30) consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment  or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect.  (j) Security and Intercreditor Agreement; Intercreditor Collateral Agreement.   There shall have occurred an “Event of Default” under, and as defined in, the Security and  Intercreditor Agreement (or, if such term is not defined therein, a “Designated Event of  Default” as defined therein), or a material breach by the Borrower of any of its obligations  under the Intercreditor Collateral Agreement.  (k) Impairment of Security, Etc..  Any Loan Document, or any Lien granted  thereunder, shall (except in accordance with its terms), in whole or any material portion  thereof, terminate, cease to be effective or cease to be the legally valid, binding and  





 






  74    enforceable obligation of any Person party thereto; the Borrower or any other Person shall,  directly or indirectly, contest in any manner such effectiveness, validity, binding nature or  enforceability; or cease to give or provide, in whole or any material portion thereof, the  respective Liens intended to be created thereby, subject only to those exceptions expressly  permitted by such Loan Document.  12.2 Remedies.  If any Event of Default described in Section 12.1 shall exist, the  Administrative Agent shall, upon request of the Majority Lenders, declare all or a portion of the  Commitments to be terminated and/or all or a portion of the Loans and other Liabilities to be due  and payable, whereupon to the extent so declared the Commitments shall immediately terminate  and/or the outstanding Loans and other Liabilities shall become immediately due and payable, all  without notice of any kind (except that if an event described in Section 12.1(c) occurs, the  Commitments shall immediately terminate and all outstanding Loans and other Liabilities shall  become immediately due and payable without declaration or notice of any kind).  The  Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Borrower of any such declaration, but failure to  do so shall not impair the effect of such declaration.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of  this Section 12.2, if an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may exercise all rights  and remedies available upon an Event of Default pursuant to any Loan Document and applicable  law.  12.3 Application of Proceeds of Collateral.  The exercise of remedies with respect to  the Collateral is subject to the terms of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement.  Upon the  occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, proceeds from the exercise of  remedies in respect of the Collateral allocated to this facility in accordance with the provisions of  the Security and Intercreditor Agreement and received by the Administrative Agent pursuant  thereto shall be applied as follows:  (a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the  Administrative Agent for or in respect of all reasonable and documented costs, expenses,  disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the  Administrative Agent in connection with the collection of such monies by the  Administrative Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Administrative  Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Administrative  Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;  (b) Second, to all other obligations hereunder; provided that distributions shall  be made (A) with respect to any fees owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,  ratably among the Administrative Agent and any Lenders to which such fees are owed, and  (B) with respect to each type of other Liabilities owing to the Lenders such as interest,  principal, fees and expenses, ratably among the Lenders, and (C) otherwise in such order  or preference as the Majority Lenders may determine.  In determining the obligations under  this Agreement for purposes of clauses (A) and (B), the Administrative Agent may in its  reasonable discretion make proper allowance to take into account any obligations  hereunder not then due and payable; and  (c) Third, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the Borrower or to such other  Persons as are entitled thereto.  





 






  75    SECTION 13. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.  13.1 Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints  PNC Bank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan  Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into joinders (including the  Supplemental Agreement) to the Collateral Documents and, subject to obtaining any consent of  the requisite Lenders pursuant to Section 14.2(a), take such other actions on its behalf and exercise  such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such  actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Section 13.1 are  solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have  rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  13.2 Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder  shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may  exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or  “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires,  include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such  Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or  in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower  or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent  hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.  13.3 Exculpatory Provisions.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or  obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without  limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:  (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of  whether a Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;  (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any  discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated  hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to  exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage  of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents);  provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its  opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or  that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; and  (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan  Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose,  any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or  obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any  capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it  (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage  of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith  





 






  76    shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 14.2 and 12.2) or (ii) in the  absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall be  deemed not to have knowledge of any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default unless and  until notice describing such Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default is given to the  Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain  or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this  Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other  document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the  performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set  forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default,  (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan  Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition  set forth in Section 11 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required  to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.  13.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled  to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate,  consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message,  Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have  been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also  may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been  made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining  compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled  to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is  satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the  contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  The Administrative Agent may  consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and  other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in  accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.  13.5 Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its  duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or  through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative  Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and  powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section  13.5 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and  any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication  of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  13.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may at any  time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such  notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with approval from the Borrower  (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, such  approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  If no such successor shall have been so  appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty  





 






  77    (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring  Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent;  provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no  qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become  effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be  discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except  that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders  under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such  collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all  payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the  Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the  Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section  13.6.  Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such  successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties  of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be  discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if  not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  The fees payable by the  Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor  unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring  Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions  of this Section 13.6 and Section 14.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring  Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions  taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as  Administrative Agent.  Upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall  succeed to all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC Bank as the retiring  Administrative Agent and PNC Bank shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and  obligations as Administrative Agent under the Loan.  13.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender  acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or  any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as  it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.   Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the  Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such  documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its  own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan  Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.  13.8 No Other Duties, Etc..  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none  of the Joint Lead Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents or the Bookrunner  listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this  Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the  Administrative Agent, or a Lender hereunder.  





 






  78    13.9 Administrative Agent's Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative  Agent a nonrefundable fee under the terms of the Fee Letter.  13.10 Authorization to Release Collateral.  The Lenders authorize the Administrative  Agent to instruct the Collateral Agent, if required, to release any Collateral consisting of assets or  equity interests sold or otherwise disposed of in a sale or other disposition or transfer permitted  under Section 10.10.  13.11 No Reliance on Administrative Agent's Customer Identification Program.  Each  Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or  assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender's, Affiliate's,  participant's or assignee's customer identification program, or other obligations required or  imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the  regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP  Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the  following items relating to or in connection with any of the Borrower, its Affiliates or their agents,  the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity  verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv)  customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.  13.12 Funding Reliance.  (a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender  prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans (or, in the case of any  Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such Borrowing) that  such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of  such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such  share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.3(b) (or, in the case of a  Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in  accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.3(b)) and may, in reliance upon such  assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a  Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the  Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay  to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in  immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount  is made available to the Borrower to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at  (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds  Open Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking  industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by  the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  If the Borrower and such  Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping  period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such  interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the  applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute  such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be  without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have  failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.  





 






  79    (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the  Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for  the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the  Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date  in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the  Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact  made such payment, then each of the Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay  to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender,  in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such  amount is distributed to it to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater  of the Federal Funds Open Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in  accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  13.13 Erroneous Payments.  (a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such  Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds  received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were  erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such  Lender (whether or not known to such Lender (whether as a payment, prepayment or  repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise), individually and collectively, an  “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion  thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day  thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment  (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the  currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and  including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such  Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at  the greater of the Federal Funds Open Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative  Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to  time in effect, and (ii) such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous  Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or  recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative  Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation  waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of  the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent  manifest error  (b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender hereby  further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Administrative Agent (or  any of its Affiliates) (i) that is in an amount different than (other than a de minimis  difference), or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the  Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an  “Erroneous Payment Notice”), or (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by an  Erroneous Payment Notice, it shall be on notice that, in each such case, an error has been  made with respect to such Erroneous Payment.  Each Lender further agrees that, in each  such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) may  





 






  80    have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of  such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but  in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent  the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) that was received by such  Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at  the greater of the Federal Funds Open Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative  Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to  time in effect.  (c) The parties hereto agree that (i) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or  portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Erroneous  Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated  to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (ii) an Erroneous Payment  shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Liabilities owed by the  Borrower, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with  respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by  the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous  Payment.  (d) Each party’s obligations under this Section 13.13 shall survive the  resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or  obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the  repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Liabilities (or any portion thereof) under any  Loan Document.  SECTION 14. GENERAL.  14.1 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.  No failure by any Lender or  the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right,  remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver  thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder  preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or  privilege.

  83    to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or  expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s  or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet,  except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined  by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have  resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Administrative Agent  Party; provided that in no event shall any Administrative Agent Party have any liability to  the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental,  consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).  (d) Reliance by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  The Administrative  Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including  telephonic Loan Requests) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i)  such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not  preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof,  as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Borrower shall  indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them  from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person  on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower.  All telephonic notices  to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded  by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such  recording.  14.4 USA Patriot Act Notice.  Each Lender that is subject to the USA Patriot Act and  the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower  that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record  information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address the  Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as  applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.  The Administrative  Agent and each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the Beneficial Ownership  Regulation, it is required to obtain a Beneficial Ownership Certificate.  14.5 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.  (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out of pocket  expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable  and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one transaction counsel for the  Administrative Agent and of one local counsel, if any, who may be retained by such  counsel)), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the  preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the  other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions  hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be  consummated), and (ii) all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by  the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the reasonable and documented fees,  charges and disbursements of one counsel (not including local counsel) for the  Administrative Agent or any Lender) in connection with the enforcement or protection of  its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including  





 






  84    its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including  all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations  in respect of such Loans, and (iii) any civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC against, and  all reasonable costs and expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in  connection with defense thereof, by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of  conduct of the Borrower that violates a sanction enforced by OFAC.  (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any subagent  thereof), each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such  Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from,  any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the  reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (not including  local counsel) for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any  Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as  a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or  any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the  parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of  the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent  (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this  Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the  proceeds therefrom, (iii) any liability under any Environmental Law related in any way to  the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,  investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort  or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower, and regardless of  whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any  Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or  related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non- appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of  such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower against an Indemnitee  for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan  Document, if the Borrower has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor  on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  This Section 14.5 shall  not apply with respect to any Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims,  damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.  (c) To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any  amount required under clause (a) or (b) above to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent  (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender  severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related  Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Percentage (determined as of the time that the  applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount,  provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or  related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative  Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any  of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection  with such capacity.  The obligations of the Lenders under this clause (c) are several and  not joint.  





 






  85    (d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall  assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any  theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to  direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this  Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated  hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the  proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any  damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other  materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information  transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or  the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.  (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on demand.  (f) The agreements in this Section shall survive the replacement of any Lender  and/or the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of the  Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other obligations of  the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  14.6 Governing Law; Entire Agreement.  THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH NOTE  SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF  THE STATE OF NEW YORK.  All obligations of the Borrower and rights of the Lenders and the  Administrative Agent expressed herein, in the Notes or in any other Loan Document shall be in  addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law.  This Agreement, the Notes  and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding among the parties hereto with  respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior agreements, written or oral, with  respect thereto.  14.7 Successors and Assigns.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding  upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns  permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights  or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each  Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder  except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.8, (ii) by way of  participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.10, or (iii) by way of pledge or  assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 14.11 (and any other  attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this  Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the  parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent  provided in Section 14.10 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of  each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim  under or by reason of this Agreement.  14.8 Assignments by Lenders.    (a) Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more  assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a  





 






  86    portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such  assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:  (i) Minimum Amounts.  (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the  assigning Lender's applicable Commitment and the Loans at the  time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an  Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount  need be assigned; and  (B) in any case not described in clause (i)(A) of this Section 14.8, the  principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender  subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the  Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such  assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade  Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement,  as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case  of the Loan of such assigning Lender, unless each of the  Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has  occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each  such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  (ii) Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an  assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under  this Agreement with respect to the Loan assigned.  (iii) Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except  for the consent of the Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or  delayed) to the extent that such assignment is to a Person other than another Lender, an  Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund and the consent of the Borrower (such consent  not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default  has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to  a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and  (iv) Assignment and Assumption Agreement.  The parties to each assignment  shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption  Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $5,000 (unless waived by the  Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), and the Eligible Assignee, if it is not a Lender,  shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire provided by the  Administrative Agent.  (v) No Assignment to Borrower.  No such assignment shall be made to the  Borrower or any of the Borrower's Affiliates or Subsidiaries.  (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a  natural person.  





 






  87    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to  Section 14.9, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and  Assumption Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this  Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption  Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the  assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment  and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and,  in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning  Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party  hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 7.1, 7.2, and 14.5 with  respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.   Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that  does not comply with this Section 14.8 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as  a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with  Section 14.10.  (b) Disqualified Persons.   (i) No assignment or participation shall be made to, and no portion of a  Commitment Increase shall be provided by, any Person that was a Disqualified Person as  of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding  agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this  Agreement to such Person or the applicable Increase Effective Date, as the case may be  (unless the Borrower (in its sole and absolute discretion) has consented, in writing, to such  assignment or the portion of the Commitment Increase to be provided by such Disqualified  Person, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Person for the  purpose of such assignment, participation or Commitment Increase).  For the avoidance of  doubt, with respect to any assignee or any Lender that provides any portion of a  Commitment Increase that becomes a Disqualified Person after the applicable Trade Date  (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the  notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Person”), (x) such assignee or  Lender shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the  execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption or Joinder Agreement with  respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered  a Disqualified Person. Any assignment or Commitment Increase in violation of this clause  (b)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (b) shall apply.  (ii) If any assignment or participation is made to, or any portion of a  Commitment Increase is provided by, any Disqualified Person without the Borrower’s  prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a  Disqualified Person after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense  and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Person and the Administrative Agent,  (A) terminate the Commitment of such Disqualified Person and repay all obligations of the  Borrower owing to such Disqualified Person in connection with such Commitment and/or  (B) require such Disqualified Person to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and  subject to the restrictions contained in this Section), all of its interest, rights and obligations  under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the principal  





 






  88    amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Person paid to acquire such  interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all  other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.    (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,  Disqualified Persons (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other  materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other  Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the  Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or  confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative  Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver  or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the  Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any  action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Person will  be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not  Disqualified Persons consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any  Debtor Relief Plan, each Disqualified Person party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on  such Debtor Relief Plan, (2) if such Disqualified Person does vote on such Debtor Relief  Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed  not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the  Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote  shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected  such Debtor Relief Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or  any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request  by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of  competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).  (iv) The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby  expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Persons  provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ  List”) on the Platform, including that portion of the Platform that is designated for “public  side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same.  14.9 Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent  of the Borrower, shall maintain a record of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the  Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms  hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  Such Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower,  the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is in such Register  pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,  notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  Such Register shall be available for inspection by the  Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior  notice.  14.10 Participation.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,  the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than to (x) a  natural person, (y) the Borrower or any of the Borrower's Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (z) a  Disqualified Person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or  





 






  89    obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans  owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain  unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the  performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders  shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights  and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be  responsible for the indemnity under Section 14.5(b) with respect to any payments made by such  Lender to its Participant(s).  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation  shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve  any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such  agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the  Participant, agree (other than as is already provided for herein) to any amendment, modification  or waiver with respect to Sections 14.2(a)(i) or 14.2(a)(iii) that affects such Participant.  The  Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 and  7.6 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section  7.6(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 7.6(g) shall be delivered  to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest  by assignment pursuant to Section 14.8; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to  the provisions of Sections 7.4 and 7.5 as if it were an assignee under Section 14.8; and (B) shall  not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 7.1 or 7.6, with respect to any  participation, than its participating Lender 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.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at  the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to  effectuate the provisions of Sections 7.4 and 7.5 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent  permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.3 as though it  were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 6.4 as though it were  a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of  the Borrower, 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 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, loans,  letters of credit 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, loan, letter of credit or  other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury  Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, 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.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative  Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.  14.11 Certain Pledges; Successors and Assigns Generally.  Any Lender may at any  time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to  secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a  





 






  90    Federal Reserve Bank, the European Central or any other applicable central bank or Official Body;  provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations  hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.  14.12 Survival.  The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 7 and 14.5, and the  obligations of the Lenders under Section 14.5(c), shall in each case survive any termination of this  Agreement, the payment in full of all Liabilities and the termination of all Commitments.  The  representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement and in each other Loan  Document shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and each such other Loan  Document.  14.13 Effectiveness of Agreement.  When counterparts executed by all the parties shall  have been lodged with the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of any Lender as to which an  executed counterpart shall not have been so lodged, the Administrative Agent shall have received  facsimile or other written confirmation from such Lender) and all of the conditions set forth in  Section 11 shall have been satisfied, this Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof,  and at such time the Administrative Agent shall notify (which notification may be via e-mail) the  Borrower and each Lender.  14.14 Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents  is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the  remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or  impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal,  invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as  close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.  The invalidity of a  provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in  any other jurisdiction.  14.15 Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, Etc..  This Agreement may be  executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an  original, but all such counterparts shall constitute together but one and the same Agreement.   Delivery of a counterpart hereof, or a signature page hereto, by facsimile or in a .pdf or similar file  shall be effective as delivery of a manually-executed original counterpart hereof.  This Agreement  shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party when executed and delivered by an  authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature, (ii) a  faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or (iii) any other electronic signature permitted  by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of  the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law,  including any relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, “Signature  Law”), in each case to the extent applicable. Each faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual  signature, or other electronic signature, shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect,  and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled  to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or  photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, of any other party and shall have no  duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof.

THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE  JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND OF THE UNITED  STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FOR THE  PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE AND IRREVOCABLY  AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION  WITH SUCH LITIGATION.

TO THE  EXTENT THAT THE BORROWER HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY  IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS

THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL  AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER  PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND  THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE  AGENT AND THE LENDERS ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER  LOAN DOCUMENT.  14.20 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative  Agent and each Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined  below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’  respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being  understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential  nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent  requested by any governmental regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it  (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance  Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena  or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any  remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this  Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f)  subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i)  any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant  in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective  counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its  obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes  publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the  Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis  from a source other than the Borrower.  For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information of a non-public,  confidential and proprietary nature received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the  Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information  that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to  disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality  of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation  





 






  93    to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of  such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that (a) the Information may  include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may  be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public  information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with  applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.  14.21 Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in  any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not  exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum  Rate”).  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds  the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds  such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted  for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate,  such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is  not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary  prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or  unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the obligations  hereunder.  14.22 Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the  Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any  Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part  thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required  (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in  its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any  proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the  obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full  force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b)  each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share  (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent,  plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per  annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  The obligations of the Lenders  under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Liabilities and  the termination of this Agreement.  14.23 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each  transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other  modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:  (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative  Agent are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the  one hand, and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own  legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the  Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of  the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative  





 






  94    Agent is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the  relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the  Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) the Administrative Agent nor has no  obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated  hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and  (iii) the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions  that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and the  Administrative Agent has no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its  Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any  claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent with respect to any breach or alleged  breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated  hereby.  14.24 Appointment of Lead Arranger and Bookrunner; No Other Duties.  The  Borrower hereby appoints (i) PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Joint Lead Arranger and Bookrunner,  (ii) ING Belgium SA/NV, as Joint Lead Arranger and Co-Syndication Agent, (iii) MUFG Bank,  Ltd., as Joint Lead Arranger and Co-Syndication Agent, (iv) Bank of America, N.A., as Joint Lead  Arranger and Co-Syndication Agent, (v) Truist Securities, Inc., as Joint Lead Arranger and Co- Syndication Agent, (vi) Citibank, N.A., as Co-Documentation Agent, (vii) Crédit Industriel et  Commercial, New York Branch, as Co-Documentation Agent, (viii) DBS Bank Ltd., as Co- Documentation Agent, (ix) Fifth Third Bank, National Association, as Co-Documentation Agent,  (x) Mizuho Bank Ltd., as Co-Documentation Agent, and (xi) Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Co- Documentation Agent.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Joint Lead Arranger,  Bookrunner, Co-Syndication Agent or Co-Documentation Agent shall have any powers, duties or  responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, except in its capacity as a  Lender hereunder.  14.25 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement,  arrangement or understanding among any the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that  any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan  Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and  conversion powers of an applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and  acknowledges and agrees to be bound by, (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion  Powers by an applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder that may be  payable to it by any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail- in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable (i) a reduction in full or in part or  cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares  or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or  a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or  other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such  liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of  such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any  applicable Resolution Authority.  14.26 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.  





 






  95    (a) To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee  or otherwise, for any Interest Rate Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is  a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the  parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the  Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title  II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the  regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of  such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable  notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to  be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other  state of the United States):  (i) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each,  a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special  Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such  QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported  QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such  Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be  effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special  Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any  such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the  United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC  Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S.  Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might  otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be  exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater  extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special  Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed  by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation  of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties  with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any  Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.  (ii) As used in this Section 14.26, the following terms have the  following meanings:  “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means, with respect to any Person, an “affiliate” (as  such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k))  of such Person.  “Covered Entity” means any of the following:  (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance  with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);   (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance  with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or  





 






  96    (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance  with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).  “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted  in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.  “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and  shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the  holders of such Senior Debt shall have the right, on a one-time only basis, by written notice to the  holder of this Subordinated Note, to require postponement of the commencement of any actions  as a result of such acceleration for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days, and during such thirty  (30) day period, the holder of this Subordinated Note shall not take any action or institute any  proceeding as a result of such acceleration.  Subject to paragraph 1 above, in the event that such a  default in payment shall exist and the holders of such Senior Debt shall not have accelerated the  maturity thereof, the holder of this Subordinated Note shall not be entitled to receive any payment  in excess of the regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest unless payment in full shall  have been made of all Senior Debt.  Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing sentence, and  subject to the provisions of paragraph 7 below, prior to the acceleration of the maturity of any  Senior Debt, if the holders of such Senior Debt provide written notice of such a payment default  (which notice shall state that it is intended to temporarily block payments on the Subordinated  Notes) to the Borrower and the holder of this Subordinated Note, then for a period ending upon  the earlier of (i) sixty (60) days after receipt of such written notice, or (ii) the date of acceleration  of the maturity of any Senior Debt, the holder of this Subordinated Note shall not be entitled to  receive any payment on account of principal, premium or interest hereon unless payment in full  shall have been made of all Senior Debt, provided that such notice may be given on a one-time  only basis.  3.

In the event  that such a non-payment default shall exist and the holders of such Senior Debt shall not have  accelerated the maturity thereof, the holders of this Subordinated Note shall not be entitled to  accelerate the maturity of this Subordinated Note unless an event of default permitting such  acceleration exists and is continuing (other than a cross default to the non-payment default with  respect to such Senior Debt).  Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing sentence, and  subject to the provisions of paragraph 7 below, prior to the acceleration of the maturity of any  Senior Debt, if the holders of such Senior Debt provide written notice of such a non-payment  default (which notice shall state that it is intended to temporarily block payments on the  Subordinated Notes) to the Borrower and the holder of this Subordinated Note, then for a period  ending upon the earlier of (i) one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt of such written  notice, or (ii) the date of acceleration of the maturity of any Senior Debt (the “Block Period”), the  holder of this Subordinated Note shall not be entitled to receive any payment on account of  principal, premium or interest hereon unless payment in full shall have been made of all Senior  Debt.

Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above, in the event that any  default in the payment of principal or interest shall occur and be continuing with respect to this  Subordinated Note, so long as the holders of such Senior Debt shall not have accelerated the  maturity thereof, the holder of this Subordinated Note shall have the right to accelerate the maturity  of this Subordinated Note provided that written notice thereof shall have been received by the  Administrative Agent under the Term Loan Agreement simultaneously with any such acceleration;  however, such holder shall not be entitled to receive any payment in excess of the regularly  scheduled payments of principal and interest unless payment in full shall have been made on all  Senior Debt. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, in the event of the  acceleration of the maturity of this Subordinated Note, the holders of the Senior Debt shall have  the right, on a one-time only basis with respect to any separate payment default on this  Subordinated Note, by written notice (which notice shall state that it is intended to temporarily  postpone the commencement of any actions as a result of the acceleration of this Subordinated  Note) to the holder of this Subordinated Note, to require postponement of the commencement of  any actions as a result of such acceleration for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days, and during  such thirty (30) day period, the holder of this Subordinated Note shall not take any action or  institute any proceeding as a result of such acceleration.  5. Subject to the foregoing paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above, in the event that any non- payment default (a default other than a default in the payment of principal or interest) shall occur  and be continuing with respect to this Subordinated Note the holders of this Subordinated Note  may accelerate the maturity hereof, provided that written notice thereof shall have been received  by the Administrative Agent under the Term Loan Agreement simultaneously with any such  acceleration, however, the holder of this Subordinated Note shall not be entitled to receive any  payment in excess of the regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest hereon unless  payment in full shall have been made of all Senior Debt.  Notwithstanding the provisions of the  foregoing sentence, and subject to the provisions of paragraph 7 below, prior to the acceleration  of the maturity of any Senior Debt, if the holders of such Senior Debt provide written notice of  such non-payment default (which notice shall state that it is intended to temporarily block actions  as a result of acceleration of this Subordinated Note), to the Borrower and the holder of this  Subordinated Note, then for a period ending upon the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days after receipt of  such written notice, or (ii) the date of acceleration of the maturity of any Senior Debt (the  “Postponement Period”), the holder of this Subordinated Note shall postpone the commencement  of any actions as a result of the acceleration of this Subordinated Note unless payment in full shall  have been made of all Senior Debt.  Subject to the provisions of paragraph 1 above, after the end  of such Postponement Period the holder of this Subordinated Note may accelerate the maturity  hereof if there exists a default which would permit such acceleration.

No present or future holder of Senior Debt shall be prejudiced in his right to enforce  subordination of this Subordinated Note by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower.   The provisions of this Subordinated Note are solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights  of the holders of Senior Debt on the one hand and the holder of this Subordinated Note on the other  hand and nothing herein shall impair as between the Borrower and the holder of this Subordinated  Note the obligation of the Borrower, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay to the holder  hereof the principal, premium, if any, and interest hereon in accordance with its terms, nor shall  anything herein prevent the holder of this Subordinated Note from exercising all remedies  otherwise permitted by applicable law or hereunder upon default hereunder, subject to the rights,
