On March 2, 2026, Chiron Real Estate LP (the "Operating Partnership"), as issuer, and Chiron Real Estate Inc., as a guarantor, entered into a Master Note and Guaranty Agreement (the "Agreement") with NYL Investors LLC ("New York Life") and certain affiliates of New York Life (collectively, the "Purchasers").

The Agreement establishes an uncommitted senior note facility pursuant to which the Operating Partnership may, from time to time, issue senior unsecured promissory notes (the "Notes") in one or more series to the Purchasers in an aggregate outstanding principal amount of up to $150.0 million. The Agreement does not constitute a commitment by New York Life or any Purchaser to purchase any Notes, and each purchase of Notes is subject to the Purchasers' sole discretion and satisfaction of customary conditions.

Notes may be issued during a period ending on the earliest of (i) the third anniversary of the effective date of the Agreement, (ii) termination of the facility by either party upon written notice, (iii) termination following certain events of default, or (iv) acceleration of the Notes and termination of the facility.

Each series of Notes issued under the Agreement will have a stated maturity of no more than ten years from the date of issuance. Interest rates for each issuance are determined at the time of issuance based on spreads over U.S. Treasury securities and are payable quarterly or semi-annually in arrears, as specified in the applicable issuance documentation. The minimum principal amount for any issuance is $10.0 million.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership and rank pari passu with the Operating Partnership's other senior unsecured indebtedness. The Operating Partnership may optionally prepay the Notes, in whole or in part, subject to payment of a customary make-whole amount.

The above description of the terms and conditions of the Agreement is only a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Agreement and is not intended to be a complete description of the terms and conditions. All of the terms and conditions of the Agreement are set forth in the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Master Note Facility

Dated as of March 2, 2026

NYL Investors LLC (**"New York Life"**)

51 Madison Avenue, 17th Floor

New York, New York 10010

Each New York Life Affiliate (as hereinafter defined) that becomes bound by certain provisions of this Agreement, as hereinafter provided (each a **"Purchaser"** and collectively, the **"Purchasers"**)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Chiron Real Estate LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the **"Issuer"**), and Chiron Real Estate Inc., a Maryland corporation (the **"Parent**,**"** and together with the Issuer, the **"Constituent Companies"** and individually, a **"Constituent Company"**), jointly and severally agree with New York Life and each of the Purchasers as follows:

Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule A and, for purposes of this Agreement, the rules of construction set forth in Section 23.5 shall govern.

**Section 1. Authorization of Notes**.

The Issuer may, from time to time and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, authorize the issue of senior promissory notes (the **"Notes"**) issuable in Series, in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed the Available Facility Amount at any time, each to be dated the date of its original issue, bearing interest on the unpaid balance from the date of original issuance at the rate per annum as provided by the terms of this Agreement and to mature no more than 10 years after the date of original issuance and to have an average life of no more than 10 years after the date of original issuance. Each Note will also be subject to the other terms of such Note as described in the Confirmation of Acceptance for such Note delivered pursuant to Section 2.7. Each Note will be substantially in the form of Schedule 1 (in each case, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by the Purchasers of the Notes of such Series and the Issuer) and the terms **"Note"** and **"Notes"** as used in this Agreement shall include each Note delivered pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and each Note delivered in substitution or exchange for any Note pursuant to any such provision. Notes that have (a) the same final maturity, (b) the same principal prepayment dates, (c) the same principal prepayment amounts (as a percentage of the original principal amount of each Note), (d) the same interest rate, (e) the same interest payment periods, and (f) the same date of issuance (which, in the case of a Note issued in exchange for another Note, is deemed for these purposes the date on which such Note's ultimate predecessor Note was issued), are a "**Series**" of Notes.

**Section 2. Uncommitted Note Facility; Guaranties**.

**Section 2.1.** **Facility**. New York Life is willing to consider, from time to time, in its sole discretion and within limits that may be authorized for purchase by New York Life Affiliates, the purchase of Notes pursuant to this Agreement. The willingness of New York Life to consider such purchase of Notes is the "**Facility.**" **NOTWITHSTANDING THE WILLINGNESS OF NEW YORK LIFE TO CONSIDER PURCHASES OF NOTES BY NEW YORK LIFE AFFILIATES, THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED INTO ON THE EXPRESS UNDERSTANDING THAT NEITHER NEW YORK LIFE NOR ANY NEW YORK LIFE AFFILIATE WILL BE OBLIGATED TO MAKE OR ACCEPT OFFERS TO PURCHASE NOTES, OR TO QUOTE RATES, SPREADS OR OTHER TERMS WITH RESPECT TO SPECIFIC PURCHASES OF NOTES, AND THE FACILITY IS NOT TO BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY NEW YORK LIFE OR ANY NEW YORK LIFE AFFILIATE.**

**Section 2.2.** **Issuance Period**. Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement until the earlier of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the third anniversary of the Effective Date (or if such anniversary is not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding that anniversary);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the day after New York Life gives to the Issuer, or the Issuer gives to New York Life, written notice stating that it elects to terminate the issuance and sale of Notes pursuant to this Agreement (or if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding such day);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the termination of the Facility under Section 12.1(a) of this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the acceleration of any Note and New York Life's election to terminate the Facility under Section 12.1(b) of this Agreement.

The period during which Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement is the **"Issuance Period."**

**Section** **2.3 Periodic Spread Information**. On any Business Day during the Issuance Period and when an Available Facility Amount exists, the Issuer may request by e-mail or telephone to New York Life, and New York Life may, but shall be under no obligation to, provide to the Issuer on that Business Day (if such request is received not later than 9:30 A.M.) or on the following Business Day (if such request is received after 9:30 A.M.) information by e-mail or telephone with respect to various spreads at which New York Life Affiliates might be interested in purchasing Notes of different average lives. The amount and content of information to be provided is in the sole discretion of New York Life, but it is the intent of New York Life to provide information that will be of use to the Issuer in determining whether to submit a Request for Purchase under Section 2.4. The delivery of the information requested is not an offer to purchase Notes, and neither New York Life nor any New York Life Affiliate is obligated to purchase Notes at the spreads specified. New York Life may suspend or terminate providing information pursuant to this Section 2.3 for any reason in its sole discretion, including its determination that the credit quality of the Issuer has declined since the Effective Date.

**Section 2.4.** **Request for Purchase**. The Issuer may, from time to time during the Issuance Period, make requests for purchases of Notes (each request is called a **"Request for Purchase"**). Each Request for Purchase will be made to New York Life by e-mail or overnight delivery service, and must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) specify the aggregate principal amount of Notes covered by the Request for Purchase, in an amount not less than $10,000,000 and not greater than the Available Facility Amount at the time the Request for Purchase is made;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) specify the principal amounts, final maturities (which are no more than 10 years from the date of issuance), average life (which is no more than 10 years from the date of issuance) and principal prepayment dates and amounts, if any, of the Notes covered by the Request for Purchase;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) specify whether interest payments on such Notes are to be made quarterly or semi-annually in arrears;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) specify the use or uses of proceeds of such Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) specify the proposed Closing Date for such Notes, which will be a Business Day during the Issuance Period not less than 15 days and not more than 30 days (or as otherwise agreed) after the making of that Request for Purchase;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) certify that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 are true on and as of the date of such Request for Purchase and that there exists on that same date no Default or Event of Default; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) be substantially in the form of the attached Schedule 2.4, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by New York Life and the Issuer.

Each Request for Purchase must be in writing and will be deemed made when received by New York Life.

**Section 2.5.** **Spread Quotes**. Not later than three Business Days after New York Life receives a Request for Purchase pursuant to Section 2.4, New York Life may, but is under no obligation to, provide to the Issuer by telephone or e-mail, in each case between 9:30 A.M. and 1:30 P.M. (or such later time as New York Life may elect) quotes for interest rate spreads for the several principal amounts, maturities, principal prepayment schedules, if any, and interest payment periods (whether quarterly or semi-annually) of Notes specified in that Request for Purchase. Spreads quoted for Notes shall be equal to spreads over U.S. Treasury securities closest to the maturities specified in the Request for Purchase or an interpolated maturity as set forth on the display designated as "Page PX1" (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets. Each quote will represent the interest rate spread per annum at which a New York Life Affiliate would be willing to purchase such Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof.

**Section 2.6.** **Acceptance**. By 11:00 A.M. on the next Business Day after New York Life provides interest rate spread quotes pursuant to Section 2.5 or such shorter period as New York Life may specify to the Issuer (such period, the **"Acceptance Window"**), the Issuer may, subject to Section 2.7, elect to accept those quotes as to not less than $10,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in the related Request for Purchase. Each election must be made by a Responsible Officer of the Issuer, notifying New York Life by telephone or e-mail within the Acceptance Window that the Issuer elects to accept a spread quote, specifying the Notes (each such Note being an **"Accepted Note"**) as to which such acceptance (the "**Acceptance**") relates. By the close of business on the day of such Acceptance or as mutually agreed between such parties, the Issuer and New York Life shall agree on the interest rate for the Accepted Notes based on such spread quote. The day an interest rate is agreed with respect to Accepted Notes is the **"Acceptance Day"** for such Accepted Notes. Any quotes as to which New York Life does not receive an Acceptance within the Acceptance Window or which do not result in an agreement as to an interest rate will expire, and no purchase or sale of Notes will be made based on those expired quotes. Subject to Section 2.7 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuer will sell to a New York Life Affiliate, and a New York Life Affiliate will purchase the Accepted Notes at 100% of the principal amount of those Accepted Notes. No later than three Business Days following the Acceptance Day, New York Life will deliver to the Issuer a confirmation of the Acceptance substantially in the form of Schedule 2.6 (the **"Confirmation of Acceptance"**). If the Issuer does not execute and deliver such Confirmation of Acceptance within four Business Days following the Acceptance Day, New York Life or any New York Life Affiliate may, at its election, cancel the purchase and sale with respect to those Accepted Notes by notifying the Issuer in writing.

**Section 2.7.** **Market Disruption**. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if New York Life provides quotes pursuant to Section 2.5, and a Market Disruption occurs prior to agreement of the interest rate for Accepted Notes in accordance with Section 2.6, then such quotes will expire, and no purchase or sale of Notes will be made based on those expired quotes. If after the occurrence of any such Market Disruption the Issuer notifies New York Life of the Acceptance of such quotes, such Acceptance will be ineffective for all purposes of this Agreement, and New York Life will promptly notify the Issuer that the provisions of this Section 2.7 are applicable with respect to such Acceptance. **"Market Disruption"** means the occurrence of any of the following: the domestic market for U.S. Treasury securities or derivatives has closed or a general suspension, material limitation, or significant disruption of trading in Securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or in the domestic market for U.S. Treasury securities or derivatives.

**Section 2.8.** **Structuring Fee**. In consideration of the time, effort and expense involved in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement, at the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Constituent Companies and New York Life, the Issuer will pay to New York Life or at the direction of New York Life by wire transfer of immediately available funds a fee (the **"Structuring Fee"**) in the amount of [\*\*\*\*].

**Section 2.9.** **Guaranties**. The obligations of the Issuer hereunder and under the Notes are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed (a) by the Parent pursuant to Section 13 (the **"Parent Guaranty"**) and (b) by each Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to that certain Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement to be dated as of the initial Closing Date (the **"Subsidiary Guaranty"**) substantially in the form of Schedule SGA.

**Section 3. Facility Closings**.

Not later than 11:30 A.M. on the Closing Date for any Accepted Notes, the Issuer will deliver to each Purchaser listed in the Confirmation of Acceptance relating thereto the Accepted Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of one or more Notes in authorized denominations as such Purchaser may request. The Accepted Notes will be dated the date of applicable Closing and registered in the Purchaser's name (or in the name of its nominee), delivered against payment of the purchase price thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If the Issuer fails to tender an Accepted Note prior to 11:30 A.M. on the scheduled Closing Date for those Accepted Notes or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 are not fulfilled by such time, New York Life and each Purchaser may cancel such purchase and sale, without waiving any rights that New York Life or such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or non-fulfillment, including any right pursuant to Section 16.1 to require payment of transaction expenses by the Constituent Companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 8.3(a) to the contrary, if and so long as any Default or Event of Default then exists or would be caused by an optional prepayment, any optional prepayment of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.3(a) shall be allocated among all of the Notes of all Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.

**Section 8.4.** **Allocation of Partial Prepayments**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes of any Series pursuant to Section 8.3(a), the principal amount of the Notes of such Series to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes of such Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the case of each partial prepayment of all Series of Notes pursuant to Section 8.3(b), the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes regardless of Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

**Section 8.5.** **Maturity; Surrender, Etc***.* In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Issuer shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Issuer and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

**Section 8.6.** **Purchase of Notes**. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Affiliates to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase the outstanding Notes of any Series made by the Issuer or one of its Affiliates pro rata to the holders of all Notes of such Series at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions; *provided* that if and so long as any Default or Event of Default then exists or would arise as a result thereof, such offer shall be made pro rata to the holders of the Notes of all Series. Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 10 Business Days. If the holders of more than 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Issuer shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least 10 Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Issuer will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

**Section 8.7.** **Make-Whole Amount**.

The term **"Make-Whole Amount"** means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, *provided* that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

**"Called Principal"** means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.3 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

**"Discounted Value"** means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

**"Reinvestment Yield"** means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (a) 0.50% *plus* (b) the yield to maturity implied by the "Ask Yield(s)" reported as of 10:00 A.M. on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as "Page PX1" (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (**"Reported"**) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (1) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (2) interpolating linearly between the "Ask Yields" Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (i) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (ii) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then **"Reinvestment Yield"** means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) 0.50% *plus* (y) the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (A) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (B) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

**"Remaining Average Life"** means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (a) such Called Principal into (b) the sum of the products obtained by *multiplying* (1) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (2) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

**"Remaining Scheduled Payments"** means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest (calculated without reference to any Default Rate then in effect) thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, *provided* that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.3 or Section 12.1.

**"Settlement Date"** means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.3 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

**Section 8.8.** **Change in Control***.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Notice of Change in Control*. The Constituent Companies will, within five Business Days after any Responsible Officer of either thereof has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control give written notice of such Change in Control to New York Life and each holder of Notes and such notice shall contain and constitute an offer by the Issuer to prepay Notes as described in Section 8.8(b) and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in Section 8.8(e).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Offer to Prepay Notes*. The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by Section 8.8(a) shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.8, all, but not less than all, Notes held by each holder on a date specified in such offer (the "**Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date**"), which date shall be a Business Day not less than 10 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such offer (or if the Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such offer, the Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date shall be the Business Day nearest to the 30th day after the date of such offer).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Acceptance; Rejection*. A holder of Notes may accept or reject the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.8 by causing a notice of such acceptance or rejection to be delivered to the Issuer at least five Business Days prior to the Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date. A failure by a holder of Notes to so respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Prepayment*. Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes but without any Make-Whole Amount. The prepayment shall be made on the Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Officer's Certificate*. Each offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by a Senior Financial Officer of the Issuer and dated the date of such offer, specifying (1) the Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date, (2) that such offer is made pursuant to this Section 8.8 and that failure by a holder to respond to such offer by the deadline established in Section 8.8(c) shall result in such offer to such holder being deemed rejected, (3) the principal amount of each Note offered to be prepaid, (4) the interest that would be due on each Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to the Change in Control Proposed Prepayment Date, (5) that the conditions of this Section 8.8 have been fulfilled and (6) in reasonable detail, the nature and date of the Change in Control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Change in Control Defined*. **"Change in Control"** means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the acquisition by any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used in sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the **"Exchange Act"**), but excluding any employee benefit plan of such person or its subsidiaries, and any person or entity acting in its capacity as trustee, agent or other fiduciary or administrator of any such plan) at any time of beneficial ownership of more than 35% of the outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of the Parent entitled to vote for members of the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the Parent on a fully-diluted basis; or (2) during any period of 12 consecutive months, a majority of the members of the board of directors or other equivalent governing body of the Parent cease to be composed of individuals (i) who were members of that board or equivalent governing body on the first day of such period, (ii) whose election or nomination to that board or equivalent governing body was approved by individuals referred to in clause (i) above constituting at the time of such election or nomination at least a majority of that board or equivalent governing body or (iii) whose election or nomination to that board or other equivalent governing body was approved by individuals referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above constituting at the time of such election or nomination at least a majority of that board or equivalent governing body.

**Section 8.9.** **Payments Due on Non-Business Days***.* Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) except as set forth in clause (b), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; and (b) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on the Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

**Section 9. Affirmative Covenants**.

During the Issuance Period and so long thereafter as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Constituent Companies covenant that:

**Section 9.1.** **Compliance with Laws**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Constituent Companies will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, at all times, do the following to the extent the failure to do so would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (1) comply in all material respects with, and maintain each of the Real Properties in compliance in all material respects with, all applicable Environmental Laws; (2) use commercially reasonable efforts to require that each Tenant of any of the Real Properties or any part thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws; (3) obtain and maintain in full force and effect all material governmental approvals required by any applicable Environmental Law for the then-current operations at each of the Real Properties; (4) cure any material violation of applicable Environmental Laws by it or at any of the Real Properties as required by applicable Environmental Laws; (5) not allow the presence or operation at any of the Real Properties of any (i) landfill or dump or (ii) hazardous waste management facility or solid waste disposal facility as defined pursuant to RCRA or any comparable state law (other than any private sewage treatment plant maintained at any Real Property in compliance with Environmental Laws); (6) not manufacture, use, generate, transport, treat, store, Release, dispose or handle any Hazardous Material at any of the Properties except in the ordinary course of its business and in compliance with Environmental Laws; (7) within 10 Business Days after receipt of written notice of the same in connection with either Constituent Company or any Subsidiary or any of the Real Properties, notify New York Life and the holders of the Notes in writing of, and provide any reasonably requested documents with respect to, any of the following: (i) any material liability for response or corrective action, natural resource damage or other harm pursuant to CERCLA, RCRA or any comparable state law; (ii) any material Environmental Claim; (iii) any material violation of an Environmental Law or material Release, threatened Release or disposal of a Hazardous Material; (iv) any restriction on the ownership, occupancy, use or transferability arising pursuant to any (A) Release, threatened Release or disposal of a Hazardous Material or (B) Environmental Law; or (v) any environmental, natural resource, health or safety condition at any of the Real Properties which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (8) conduct, at its expense, any investigation, study, sampling, testing, abatement, cleanup, removal, remediation or other response action necessary to remove, remediate, clean up or abate any material Release, threatened Release or disposal of a Hazardous Material as required to be performed by any applicable Environmental Law, (9) abide by and observe any restrictions on the use of the Real Properties imposed by any Governmental Authority as set forth in a deed or other instrument affecting either Constituent Company's or any Subsidiary's interest therein; (10) promptly provide or otherwise make available to New York Life and the holder of the Notes any reasonably requested existing environmental record concerning the Real Properties which either Constituent Company or any Subsidiary possesses or can reasonably obtain; and (11) perform, satisfy, and implement any operation or maintenance actions required by any Governmental Authority or Environmental Law or included in any no further action letter or covenant not to sue issued by any Governmental Authority under any Environmental Law.

**Section 9.3.** **Maintenance of Properties**. The Constituent Companies will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective Properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear and damage by casualty), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, *provided* that this Section 9.3 shall not prevent either Constituent Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its Properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Parent has concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Constituent Company will, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to, amend, modify, waive or terminate any material contract or agreement to which it is a party if such amendment, modification, waiver or termination could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

**Section 9.4.** **Payment of Taxes and Claims**. The Constituent Companies will, and will cause each Subsidiary Guarantor and Material Subsidiary to, duly pay and discharge all material taxes, rates, assessments, fees, and governmental charges upon or against it or its Property (other than any such taxes, rates, assessments, fees, and governmental charges that are required to be paid by any Tenants so long as such amounts are paid within 45 days of the applicable due date), in each case before the same become delinquent and before penalties accrue thereon, unless and to the extent that the same are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and adequate reserves established in accordance with GAAP are provided therefor.

**Section 9.6.** **Books and Records**. The Constituent Companies will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, maintain proper books of record and account in conformity with GAAP and all applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having legal or regulatory jurisdiction over such Constituent Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders covering such matters relating to such Subsidiary, such Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement and the Subsidiary Guaranty as the Required Holders may reasonably request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) At any time that the Debt Rating maintained pursuant to clause (a) above is not a public rating, the Issuer will provide to each holder of a Note (1) at least annually (on or before each anniversary of the Effective Date) and (2) promptly upon either Constituent Company having any knowledge of any change in such Debt Rating, an updated Private Rating Letter evidencing such Debt Rating and an updated Private Rating Rationale Report with respect to such Debt Rating. In addition to the foregoing information and any information specifically required to be included in any Private Rating Letter or Private Rating Rationale Report (as set forth in the respective definitions thereof), if the SVO or any other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over any holder of any Notes from time to time requires any additional information with respect to the Debt Rating of any Series of Notes, Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to procure such information from the Acceptable Rating Agency.

**Section 9.11.** **Most Favored Lender***.* (a) If either Constituent Company or any Subsidiary (1) amends, restates or otherwise modifies any Material Credit Facility or (2) otherwise enters into, assumes or otherwise is or becomes bound or obligated under any Material Credit Facility, which includes one or more Additional or More Restrictive Terms, the terms of this Agreement shall, without any further action on the part of the Constituent Companies, any Subsidiary, New York Life or the holders of the Notes, be deemed to be amended automatically and immediately to include each such Additional or More Restrictive Term (subject to clause (b) below) and the Constituent Companies shall provide written notice of such event to New York Life and the holders of the Notes providing a fully executed copy of the Material Credit Facility and/or amendment thereto containing such Additional or More Restrictive Term promptly upon becoming bound or obligated thereby. Upon written request of either Constituent Company, New York Life or the Required Holders, the Constituent Companies, New York Life and the Required Holders shall promptly execute and deliver at the Constituent Companies' expense (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for New York Life and the holders of the Notes, limited to one primary counsel for each of New York Life and the holders collectively) an amendment to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Constituent Companies, New York Life and the Required Holders evidencing the amendment of this Agreement to include such Additional or More Restrictive Term, *provided* that the execution and delivery of any such amendment shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such amendment as provided for in this paragraph (a), but shall merely be for the convenience of the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If after the time this Agreement is amended pursuant to the foregoing clause (a) to include in this Agreement any Additional Covenant or More Restrictive Term and such Additional or More Restrictive Term ceases to be in effect under all Material Credit Facilities or such Additional or More Restrictive Term is otherwise amended or modified in accordance with the terms of each applicable Material Credit Facility so as to be less restrictive with respect to the Constituent Companies and the Subsidiaries, then, upon written notice thereof from either Constituent Company (which notice shall (1) contain a certification of a Responsible Officer of such Constituent Company that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (2) in the case of an amendment or modification, include a fully executed copy of the amendment or modification to each applicable Material Credit Facility) to New York Life and the holders, the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended automatically and immediately, without any further action on the part of the Constituent Companies, any Subsidiary, New York Life or the holders of the Notes, to remove such Additional or More Restrictive Term or amend or modify such Additional or More Restrictive Term, as applicable. Upon written request of either Constituent Company, New York Life or the Required Holders, the Constituent Companies, New York Life and the Required Holders shall promptly execute and deliver at the Constituent Companies' expense (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for New York Life and the holders of the Notes, limited to one primary counsel for each of New York Life and the holders collectively) an amendment to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Constituent Companies, New York Life and the Required Holders evidencing the amendment of this Agreement to remove, amend or modify such Additional or More Restrictive Term, *provided* that the execution and delivery of such amendment shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such amendment as provided for in this paragraph (b), but shall merely be for the convenience of the parties hereto. If any cash fee or other cash consideration (it being understood that (i) any fee in the form of original issue discount shall be deemed a cash fee, (ii) any increase to the stated interest rate (including any increase resulting from a change to any pricing grid, leverage-based pricing schedule or similar rate-setting mechanism) applicable to such Material Credit Facility shall be considered, for purposes hereof, a one-time cash fee in an amount equal to such percentage increase multiplied by the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes and (iii) any reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs and expenses and any cash fee that is not paid to or on behalf of all consenting holders of such Material Credit Facility, shall not be considered a cash fee or other cash consideration) is given to any holder of Indebtedness under a Material Credit Facility to induce such holder to cause such Additional or More Restrictive Term to cease to be in effect or to be so amended or modified under such Material Credit Facility, the holders of the Notes shall receive ratably equivalent cash consideration substantially concurrently therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no release or amendment to this Agreement pursuant to this paragraph (b) as the result of any Additional or More Restrictive Term in any Material Credit Facility ceasing to be in effect or being amended shall cause any covenant or Event of Default in this Agreement to be less restrictive than such covenant or Event of Default as originally contained in this Agreement on the Effective Date.

**Section 10. Negative Covenants**.

**Section** **12. Remedies on Default, Etc**.

**Section 12.1.** **Acceleration**. (a) If an Event of Default with respect to either Constituent Company described in Section 11(g), (h) or (i) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (1) of Section 11(g) or described in clause (6) of Section 11(g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (1) of Section 11(g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable and the Facility shall be terminated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Issuer, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable and New York Life may elect to terminate the Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) or (b) has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Issuer, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, *plus* (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including interest accrued thereon at the applicable Default Rate) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, determined in respect of such principal amount, shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Issuer acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Issuer (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Issuer in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

**Section 12.2.** **Other Remedies**. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note or the Subsidiary Guaranty, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

**Section 12.3.** **Rescission**. At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (c), the Required Holders, by written notice to the Issuer, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Issuer has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the applicable Default Rate, (b) neither the Issuer nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 18, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

**Section** **12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc**. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder's rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Constituent Companies under Section 16, the Issuer will pay to New York Life and the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of New York Life or such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and disbursements.

**Section** **13. Guaranty**.

**Section** **13.1. The Guaranty**. The Parent hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to each holder of a Note (a) the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest (including any interest accruing after the commencement of any proceeding in bankruptcy and any additional interest that would accrue but for the commencement of such proceeding) on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement and (b) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Issuer of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or observed by the Issuer under the terms of this Agreement and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the **"Obligations"**). The Parent further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this Section 13 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

**Section** **13.2. Waiver of Defenses**. The Parent waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The Parent waives notice of any default under this Agreement, the Notes or the other Obligations. The obligation of the Parent hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any holder of a Note to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person (including any Subsidiary Guarantor) under this Agreement, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other agreement; (d) the acceptance of any security or guaranty (including the Subsidiary Guaranty) by any holder of a Note for the Obligations or any of them; (e) the release of any security or guaranty (including the Subsidiary Guaranty) held by any holder of a Note for the Obligations or any of them; (f) the release of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person from its liability with respect to the Obligations; (g) any act or failure to act with regard to the Obligations; (h) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets, marshalling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization or arrangement under bankruptcy or similar laws, composition with creditors or readjustment of, or other similar procedure affecting the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person or any of the assets of any of them, or any allegation or contest of the validity of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other agreement or the disaffirmance of this Agreement or the Notes or the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other agreement in any such proceeding; (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other agreement; (j) the impossibility or illegality of performance on the part of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person of its obligations under the Notes, this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other instrument or agreement; (k) in respect of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person, any change of circumstances, whether or not foreseen or foreseeable, whether or not imputable to the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person, or other impossibility of performance through fire, explosion, accident, labor disturbance, floods, droughts, pandemics, embargoes, wars (whether or not declared), acts of terrorists, civil commotions, acts of God or the public enemy, delays or failures of suppliers or carriers, inability to obtain materials, action of any Governmental Authority, change of law or any other causes affecting performance, or other force majeure, whether or not beyond the control of the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person and whether or not of the kind above specified; or (l) any change in the ownership of the Issuer.

It being understood that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Section 13.2 that the obligations of the Parent shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the payment of the Obligations and then only to the extent of such payment.

**Section** **13.3. Guaranty of Payment**. The Parent further agrees that the guaranty contained in this Section 13 constitutes a guaranty of payment when due (and not a guaranty of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any holder of a Note to any other Person or to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

**Section** **13.4. Guaranty Unconditional**. The obligations of the Parent hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Parent herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any holder of a Note to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Parent or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Parent as a matter of law or equity.

**Section** **13.5. Reinstatement**. The Parent further agrees that the guaranty herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any holder of a Note upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise.

**Section** **13.6. Payment on Demand**. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any holder of a Note has at law or in equity against the Parent by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, the Parent hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by any holder of a Note, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the holders an amount equal to the sum of (a) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing and (b) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing.

The Parent acknowledges and agrees that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Issuer shall default under the terms of a Note or this Agreement and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given Default or Event of Default, the guaranty contained in this Section 13 shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent Default or Event of Default.

**Section** **13.7. Stay of Acceleration**. The Parent further agrees that, as between itself, on the one hand, and the holders of the Notes, on the other hand, (a) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Agreement for the purposes of the guaranty herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby and (b) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Parent for the purposes of this guaranty.

**Section** **13.8. No Subrogation**. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Parent hereunder, the Parent shall not be entitled to exercise any right of subrogation it may have to any of the rights of any holder of a Note against the Issuer or any collateral security or guaranty or right of offset held by any holder for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Parent seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of payments made by the Parent hereunder, until all amounts owing to the holders of the Notes by the Issuer on account of the Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Parent on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Parent in trust for the holders of the Notes, segregated from other funds of the Parent, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Parent, be turned over to the holders of the Notes in the exact form received by the Parent (duly indorsed by the Parent to the holders of the Notes, if required), to be applied against the Obligations.

**Section** **13.9. Marshalling**. No holder of a Note shall be under any obligation: (a) to marshal any assets in favor of the Parent or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Issuer under or in respect of the Notes and this Agreement or the obligations of the Parent hereunder or (b) to pursue any other remedy that the Parent may or may not be able to pursue itself and that may lighten the Parent's burden, any right to which the Parent hereby expressly waives.

**Section** **13.10. Transfer of Notes**. All rights of any holder of a Note under this Section 13 shall be considered to be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time upon the transfer of any Note held by such holder whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Parent under this Section 13.

**Section** **13.11. Consideration**. The Parent has received, or shall receive, direct or indirect benefits from the making of this guaranty.

**Section 14. Registration; Exchange; Substitution of Notes**.

**Section** **14.1. Registration of Notes**. The Issuer shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof, the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each such Note shall be registered in such register. If any holder of one or more Notes is a nominee, then (a) the name and address of the beneficial owner of such Note or Notes shall also be registered in such register as an owner and holder thereof and (b) at any such beneficial owner's option, either such beneficial owner or its nominee may execute any amendment, waiver or consent pursuant to this Agreement. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Constituent Companies shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Issuer shall give to New York Life and any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. The register shall be maintained in registered form within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any United States Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

**Section** **14.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes**. Upon surrender of any Note to the Issuer at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 19(3)), for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within 10 Business Days thereafter, the Issuer shall execute and deliver, at the Issuer's expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes of the same Series (as requested by the holder thereof) and in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of the Note of such Series originally issued hereunder. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $100,000, *provided* that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of a Series of Notes, one Note of such Series may be in a denomination of less than $100,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2.

**Section 14.3.** **Replacement of Notes**. Upon receipt by the Issuer at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 19(3)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (*provided* that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person's own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

within 10 Business Days thereafter, the Issuer at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same Series, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

**Section 15. Payments on Notes**.

**Section** **15.1. Place of Payment**. Subject to Section 15.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York, New York at the principal office of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in such jurisdiction. The Issuer may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Issuer in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

**Section** **15.2. Payment by Wire Transfer**. So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 15.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Issuer will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest and all other amounts becoming due hereunder by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser's name in the Purchaser Schedule attached to the relevant Confirmation of Acceptance, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Issuer in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Issuer made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Issuer at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Issuer pursuant to Section 15.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Issuer in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 14.2. The Issuer will afford the benefits of this Section 15.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 15.2.

**Section 15.3.** **FATCA Information***.* By acceptance of any Note, the holder of such Note agrees that such holder will (a) on or prior to the date such holder becomes a holder of such Note and (b) from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested by the Issuer, duly complete and deliver to the Issuer, or to such other Person as may be reasonably requested by the Issuer, (1) in the case of any such holder that is a United States Person, such holder's United States tax identification number on an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (2) in the case of any such holder that is not a United States Person, an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (and, if applicable, a portfolio interest exemption certification). In addition, by acceptance of any Note, the holder of such Note agrees that such holder will with reasonable promptness, upon the request of the Issuer, duly complete and deliver to the Issuer, or to such other Person as may be reasonably requested by the Issuer, (i) in the case of any such holder that is a United States Person, such other forms reasonably requested by the Issuer necessary to establish such holder's status as a United States Person under FATCA and as may otherwise be necessary for the Issuer to comply with its obligations under FATCA and (ii) in the case of any such holder that is not a United States Person, such additional documentation as may be necessary for the Issuer to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such holder has complied with such holder's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from any such payment made to such holder. Any holder of a Note shall (x) if such holder is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under the Notes, deliver to the Issuer such other properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Issuer as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding and (y) deliver to the Issuer such other documentation reasonably requested by the Issuer as will enable the Issuer to determine whether or not such holder is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; *provided*, in each case, that the completion, execution and submission of the documentation described in this sentence shall not be required if in such holder's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such holder to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such holder. Each holder of a Note agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 15.3 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Issuer in writing of its legal inability to do so. Nothing in this Section 15.3 shall require any holder to provide information that is confidential or proprietary to such holder unless the Issuer is required to obtain such information under FATCA and, in such event, the Issuer shall treat any such information it receives as confidential.

**Section** **16.1. Transaction Expenses***.* Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Constituent Companies will pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees of one special counsel and, if reasonably required by New York Life or the Required Holders, one local or one other counsel) incurred by New York Life, the Purchasers and each other holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), *provided* that if there is any conflict of interest among any such Persons in connection with an amendment, waiver or consent, the Constituent Companies will pay the reasonable fees of such additional attorneys as is necessary to resolve such conflict, including: (a) the reasonable costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, (b) the reasonable costs and expenses, including financial advisors' fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of either Constituent Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes and the Subsidiary Guaranty and (c) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial filing of this Agreement and all related documents and financial information with the SVO, *provided* that such costs and expenses under this clause (c) shall not exceed $5,000, in the aggregate, per Series. If required by the NAIC, each Constituent Company shall obtain and maintain at its own cost and expense a Legal Entity Identifier (LEI).

The Constituent Companies will pay, and will save New York Life, each Purchaser and each other holder of a Note harmless from, (1) all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders (other than those, if any, retained by New York Life, a Purchaser or other holder in connection with its purchase of the Notes), (2) any and all wire transfer fees that any bank or other financial institution deducts from any payment under such Note to such holder or otherwise charges to a holder of a Note with respect to a payment under such Note and (3) any judgment, liability, claim, order, decree, fine, penalty, cost, fee, expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) or obligation resulting from the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the use of the proceeds of the Notes by the Issuer.

**Section** **16.2. Certain Taxes***.* The Constituent Companies agree to pay all stamp, documentary or similar taxes or fees imposed by any Governmental Authority which may be payable in respect of the execution and delivery or the enforcement of this Agreement or the Subsidiary Guaranty or the execution and delivery (but not the transfer) or the enforcement of any of the Notes in the United States or any other jurisdiction where either Constituent Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor has assets or of any amendment of, or waiver or consent under or with respect to, this Agreement or the Subsidiary Guaranty or of any of the Notes, and will save each holder of a Note to the extent permitted by applicable law harmless against any loss or liability resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment of any such tax or fee required to be paid by the Constituent Companies hereunder.

**Section** **16.3. Survival***.* The obligations of the Constituent Companies under this Section 16 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement.

**Section 17. Survival of Representations and Warranties; Entire Agreement**.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of a Constituent Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of such Constituent Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guaranty collectively embody the entire agreement and understanding among New York Life, each Purchaser and each Constituent Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

**Section 18. Amendment and Waiver**.

**Section 18.1.** **Requirements***.* This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Constituent Companies, New York Life and the Required Holders, except that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) no amendment or waiver of any of Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 22 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to New York Life or any Purchaser unless consented to by New York Life or such Purchaser in writing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of New York Life, each Purchaser and the holder of each Note at the time outstanding, (1) subject to Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of (i) interest on the Notes or (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, (2) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any amendment or waiver, or (3) amend any of Sections 8 (except as set forth in the second sentence of Section 8.3(a)), 11(a), 11(b), 12, 13, 18 or 21.

**Section 18.2.** **Solicitation of Holders of Notes**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Solicitation.* The Constituent Companies will provide New York Life and each holder of a Note with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable New York Life and such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes or the Subsidiary Guaranty. The Constituent Companies will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 18 or the Subsidiary Guaranty to New York Life and each holder of a Note promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Payment.* The Constituent Companies will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to New York Life or any holder of a Note as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by New York Life or such holder of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Note unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to New York Life and each holder of a Note even if New York Life or such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Consent in Contemplation of Transfer*. Any consent given pursuant to this Section 18 or the Subsidiary Guaranty by a holder of a Note that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to (1) a Constituent Company, (2) any Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of a Constituent Company or (3) any other Person in connection with, or in anticipation of, such other Person acquiring, making a tender offer for or merging with a Constituent Company and/or any of its Affiliates, in each case in connection with such consent, shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder.

**Section 18.3.** **Binding Effect, Etc***.* Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 18 or the Subsidiary Guaranty applies equally to New York Life and all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Constituent Companies without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing among the Constituent Companies, New York Life or any holder of a Note and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or the Subsidiary Guaranty shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.

**Section 18.4.** **Notes Held by Constituent Companies, Etc***.* Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of all or the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of all or a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by a Constituent Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

**Section 19. Notices**.

Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 7.4, all notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by an internationally recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by an internationally recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) if to any Purchaser or its nominee, to such Purchaser or nominee at the address specified for such communications in the Purchaser Schedule attached to the relevant Confirmation of Acceptance, or at such other address as such Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Constituent Companies in writing,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the Constituent Companies in writing, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) if to a Constituent Company, to such Constituent Company at its address set forth at the beginning hereof to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer and with a copy to the same address to the attention of the General Counsel, or at such other address as such Constituent Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.

Notices under this Section 19 will be deemed given only when actually received.

**Section 20. Reproduction of Documents**.

This Agreement and all documents relating hereto, including (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by New York Life or any Purchaser on the Effective Date or at a Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to New York Life or any Purchaser, may be reproduced by New York Life or such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and New York Life or such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Constituent Companies agree and stipulate that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by New York Life or such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 20 shall not prohibit either Constituent Company, New York Life or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

**Section 21. Confidential Information**.

For the purposes of this Section 21, **"Confidential Information"** means information delivered to New York Life or any Purchaser by or on behalf of a Constituent Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary or non-public in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by New York Life or such Purchaser as being confidential information of such Constituent Company or such Subsidiary, *provided* that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to New York Life or such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure other than through disclosure by a Constituent Company or a Subsidiary, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by New York Life or such Purchaser or any Person acting on New York Life's or such Purchaser's behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to New York Life or such Purchaser other than through disclosure by a Constituent Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to New York Life or such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. New York Life and each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by New York Life or such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to New York Life or such Purchaser, *provided* that New York Life and or such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (1) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates who agree or by their position are deemed to have agreed to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 21 (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of this Agreement or the investment represented by its Notes), (2) its auditors, financial advisors, investment advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 21, (3) any other holder of any Note, (4) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 21), (5) any Person from which it offers to purchase any Security of either Constituent Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 21), (6) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over New York Life or such Purchaser, (7) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser's investment portfolio, or (8) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (i) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to New York Life or such Purchaser, (ii) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (iii) in connection with any litigation to which New York Life or such Purchaser is a party or (iv) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent New York Life or such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser's Notes, this Agreement or the Subsidiary Guaranty. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 21 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by a Constituent Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Constituent Companies embodying this Section 21.

In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to a Constituent Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through Intralinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 21, this Section 21 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Constituent Companies, this Section 21 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking.

Each of New York Life and any Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it is aware that the United States securities laws prohibit any Person that has received material non-public information concerning the Parent and its Subsidiaries from trading in the securities of the Parent and its Subsidiaries or communicating such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such Person is likely to trade such securities.

**Section 22. Substitution of Purchaser**.

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser's Affiliates (a **"Substitute Purchaser"**) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Constituent Companies, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser's agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 22), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Constituent Companies of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a "Purchaser" in this Agreement (other than in this Section 22), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

**Section 23. Miscellaneous**.

**Section 23.1.** **Successors and Assigns***.* All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not, except that, subject to Section 10.2, neither Constituent Company may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Notes without the prior written consent of New York Life and each holder. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

**Section 23.2.** **Accounting Terms***.* All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (a) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (b) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. If, after the date of this Agreement, there shall occur any change in GAAP from those used in the preparation of the financial statements referred to in Section 7.1 and such change shall result in a change in the method of calculation of any financial covenant, standard or term found in this Agreement, either the Constituent Companies or the Required Holders may, by written notice to the holders of Notes and the Constituent Companies, respectively, require that the Required Holders and the Constituent Companies negotiate in good faith to amend such covenants, standards, and terms so as equitably to reflect such change in accounting principles, with the desired result being that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall be the same as if such change had not been made. No delay by the Constituent Companies or the Required Holders in requiring such negotiation shall limit their right to so require such a negotiation at any time after such a change in accounting principles. Until any such covenant, standard, or term is amended in accordance with this Section 23.2, financial covenants shall be computed and determined in accordance with GAAP in effect prior to such change in accounting principles. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Constituent Companies shall neither be deemed to be in compliance with any financial covenant hereunder nor out of compliance with any financial covenant hereunder if such state of compliance or noncompliance, as the case may be, would not exist but for the occurrence of a change in accounting principles after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GAAP will be deemed to treat operating leases and Capital Leases in a manner consistent with the treatment under GAAP as in effect prior to the issuance by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on February 24, 2016 of Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement (including Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of "Indebtedness"), any election by a Constituent Company to measure any financial liability using fair value (as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 – *Fair Value Option,* International Accounting Standard 39 – *Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement* or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made.

**Section 23.3.** **Divisions***.* For all purposes of this Agreement, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction's laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

**Section 23.4.** **Severability***.* Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

**Section 23.5.** **Construction, Etc***.* Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

Defined terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words "include," "includes" and "including" shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase "without limitation." The word "will" shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word "shall." The words "assets" and "property" shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein) and, for purposes of the Notes, shall also include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 14, (b) subject to Section 23.1, any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person's successors and assigns, (c) the words "herein," "hereof" and "hereunder," and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Sections and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Sections of, and Schedules to, this Agreement, (e) any reference to any law or regulation herein shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time and (f) references to any time of day are to New York City local time unless otherwise specified.

**Section 23.6.** **Counterparts; Electronic Contracting***.* This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. The parties agree to electronic contracting and signatures with respect to this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty and all other documents delivered hereunder (other than the Notes). Delivery of an electronic signature to, or a signed copy of, this Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty and all other documents delivered hereunder (other than the Notes) by facsimile, e-mail or other electronic transmission shall be fully binding on the parties to the same extent as the delivery of the signed originals and shall be admissible into evidence for all purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Purchaser shall request manually signed counterpart signatures to any document hereunder, each Constituent Company hereby agrees to use its reasonable endeavors to provide such manually signed signature pages as soon as reasonably practicable.

**Section 23.7.** **Governing Law***.* This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

**Section 23.8.** **Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial***.* (a) Each Constituent Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Constituent Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Constituent Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that a final judgment in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 23.8(a) brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon it subject to rights of appeal, as the case may be, and may be enforced in the courts of the United States or the State of New York (or any other courts to the jurisdiction of which it or any of its assets is or may be subject) by a suit upon such judgment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Constituent Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of New York Life or any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 23.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered certified, priority or express mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt or delivery confirmation requested, to it at its address specified in Section 19 or at such other address of which New York Life or such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. Each Constituent Company agrees that such service upon receipt (1) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (2) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Nothing in this Section 23.8 shall affect the right of New York Life or any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that New York Life or the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against either Constituent Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith.

**Section 23.9.** **Transaction References***.* The Constituent Companies agree that New York Life may (a) refer to the identity of the Constituent Companies and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued hereunder and the date on which the Notes were issued, on its internet site or in marketing materials, press releases, published "tombstone" announcements or any other print or electronic medium and (b) display the Parent's corporate logo in conjunction with any such reference.

\* \* \* \* \*

If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign the form of agreement on a counterpart of this Agreement and return it to the Constituent Companies, whereupon this Agreement shall become a binding agreement between you and the Constituent Companies.

Chiron Real Estate LP

This Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement dated as of [__________ __], 20[__] (this **"Guaranty"**) is entered into on a joint and several basis by each of the undersigned, together with any entity which may become a party hereto by execution and delivery of a Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto (a **"Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement"**) (which parties are hereinafter referred to individually as a **"Guarantor"** and collectively as the **"Guarantors"**).

**Recitals**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Chiron Real Estate Inc., a Maryland corporation (the **"Parent"**), is the general partner of Chiron Real Estate LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the **"Issuer"**; the Parent and the Issuer are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the **"Constituent Companies"** and each individually, a **"Constituent Company"**). Each Guarantor is a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Parent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The Constituent Companies have entered into a Master Note and Guaranty Agreement dated as of March 2, 2026 (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the **"Note Agreement"**), with New York Life and each New York Life Affiliate that becomes bound by certain provisions thereof, pursuant to which the Issuer may from time to time issue senior promissory notes (including any notes issued in substitution thereof or exchange therefor pursuant to Section 14 of the Note Agreement, the **"Notes"**) to New York Life Affiliates (the **"Purchasers"**) in the aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed the Available Facility Amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. New York Life and each holder of a Note together with their respective successors and assigns are collectively referred to herein as the **"Holders**.**"**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. The Purchasers have required as a condition of their purchase of the Notes and each future Purchaser has required as a condition of their purchase of Notes that the Constituent Companies cause each of the undersigned to enter into this Guaranty and, as set forth in Section 9.7(a) of the Note Agreement, to cause certain other Subsidiaries from time to time to enter into a Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement, and the Constituent Companies have agreed to cause each of the undersigned to execute this Guaranty and to cause each such other Subsidiary to execute a Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement, in each case in order to induce the Purchasers to purchase the Notes and thereby benefit the Issuer and its Subsidiaries by providing funds to the Issuer for the purposes described in Section 5.14 of the Note Agreement.

Sch SGA-4

Now, therefore, as required by Section 2.9 of the Note Agreement and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree, jointly and severally, as follows:

Definitions.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Note Agreement unless defined herein or the context shall otherwise require.

Guaranty of Notes and Note Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Guarantor jointly and severally does hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantee unto the Holders: (1) the full and prompt payment of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest (including, without limitation, any interest on any overdue principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, the Increased Interest, if any, interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding, and any additional interest that would accrue but for the commencement of such proceeding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue interest) on the Notes from time to time outstanding, as and when such payments shall become due and payable whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration or otherwise in federal or other immediately available funds of the United States which at the time of payment or demand therefor shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, (2) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Issuer of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or owed by the Issuer under the terms of the Notes, (3) the full and prompt performance and observance by each Constituent Company of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or owed by such Constituent Company under the terms of the Note Agreement and (4) the full and prompt payment, upon demand by any Holder, of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise (including reasonable attorneys' fees), if any, payable by the Constituent Companies pursuant to Section 12.4 or 16.1 of the Note Agreement, or as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any rights, privileges or liabilities in favor of the Holders under or in respect of this Guaranty or in any consultation or action in connection therewith or herewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment hereunder (a **"Payment"**) which, together with all other Payments made by such Guarantor, and taking into account all other Payments previously or concurrently made by any of the other Guarantors, exceeds the amount which such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate obligations satisfied by such Payment(s) in the same proportion as such Guarantor's Allocable Amount (as hereinafter defined) in effect immediately prior to such Payment bore to the Aggregate Allocable Amount (as hereinafter defined) in effect immediately prior to the making of such Payment, then such Guarantor shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, *pro rata* based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Payment; *provided* that each Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of contribution and indemnification and any and all claims of such Guarantor against any other Guarantor, any endorser or against any of their property shall be junior and subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment in cash in full of all of the Notes and satisfaction by the Constituent Companies of their obligations under the Note Agreement and by the Guarantors of their obligations under this Guaranty and the Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of contribution and indemnification, and the Guarantors shall not accept any payment in respect of such right of contribution and indemnification, until all of the Notes and all amounts payable by the Guarantors hereunder have indefeasibly been finally paid in cash in full and all of the obligations of the Constituent Companies under the Note Agreement and of the Guarantors under this Guaranty have been satisfied.

Sch SGA-5

As of any date of determination, (1) the **"Allocable Amount"** of any Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount which could then be claimed by the Holders under this Guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. Sec. 101 *et. seq*.) or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any similar statute or common law; and (2) the **"Aggregate Allocable Amount"** shall be equal to the sum of the Allocable Amount of all Guarantors.

This clause (b) is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this clause (b) is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts to the Holders as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance herewith.

Each Guarantor acknowledges that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of any Guarantor to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

Guaranty of Payment and Performance.

This is an irrevocable, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance (and not of collection) and each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to require that any action on or in respect of any Note or the Note Agreement be brought against either Constituent Company or any other Person or that resort be had to any direct or indirect security for the Notes or for this Guaranty or any other remedy. Any Holder may, at its option, proceed hereunder against any Guarantor in the first instance to collect monies when due, the payment of which is guaranteed hereby, without first proceeding against either Constituent Company or any other Person and without first resorting to any direct or indirect security for the Notes or for this Guaranty or any other remedy. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected or impaired by any acceptance by any Holder of any direct or indirect security for, or other guaranties of, any Indebtedness, liability or obligation of either Constituent Company or any other Person to any Holder or by any failure, delay, neglect or omission by any Holder to realize upon or protect any such guarantees, Indebtedness, liability or obligation or any notes or other instruments evidencing the same or any direct or indirect security therefor or by any approval, consent, waiver, or other action taken, or omitted to be taken by any such Holder.

The covenants and agreements on the part of the Guarantors herein contained shall take effect as joint and several covenants and agreements, and references to the Guarantors shall take effect as references to each of them and none of them shall be released from liability hereunder by reason of the guarantee ceasing to be binding as a continuing security on any other of them.

Sch SGA-6

General Provisions Relating to the Guaranty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that any Holder or Holders from time to time, with or without any further notice to or assent from any other Guarantor may, without in any manner affecting the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, and upon such terms and conditions as any such Holder or Holders may deem advisable:

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the rights of any Holder to enforce such obligations by any proceedings, whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination (other than termination upon the indefeasible payment in cash in full of all of the Notes and all amounts payable by the Guarantors hereunder and the satisfaction of all of the obligations of the Constituent Companies under the Note Agreement and of the Guarantors under this Guaranty), whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever or otherwise and shall not be subject to any defense, set-off, counterclaim (other than any compulsory counterclaim), recoupment or termination whatsoever.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be binding upon the Guarantors and their successors and assigns, shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Notes and all amounts payable by the Guarantors hereunder have indefeasibly been finally paid in cash in full and all of the obligations of the Constituent Companies under the Note Agreement and of the Guarantors under this Guaranty have been satisfied, and shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Guarantor or any other Person in respect of the obligations of any Guarantor or other Person under this Guaranty or any other agreement;

*provided* that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty and the parties hereto that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the payment of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on the Notes in accordance with their respective terms whenever the same shall become due and payable as in the Notes provided, at the place specified in and all in the manner and with the effect provided in the Notes and the Note Agreement, as each may be amended or modified from time to time. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Issuer shall default under or in respect of the terms of the Notes or either Constituent Company shall default under or in respect of the terms of the Note Agreement and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Issuer under the Notes or by either Constituent Company under the Note Agreement, this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) All rights of any Holder under this Guaranty shall be considered to be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time upon the transfer of any Note held by such Holder whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Guarantors under this Guaranty or to either Constituent Company.

Sch SGA-10

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) To the extent of any payments made under this Guaranty, the Guarantors shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holder or Holders upon whose Notes such payment was made, but each Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation and any and all claims of such Guarantor against either Constituent Company, any endorser or other Guarantor or against any of their respective properties shall be junior and subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment in cash in full of all of the Notes and satisfaction by the Constituent Companies of their obligations under the Note Agreement and by the Guarantors of their obligations under this Guaranty, and the Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of subrogation, and the Guarantors shall not accept any payment in respect of such right of subrogation, until all of the Notes and all amounts payable by the Guarantors hereunder have indefeasibly been finally paid in cash in full and all of the obligations of the Constituent Companies under the Note Agreement and of the Guarantors under this Guaranty have been satisfied. Notwithstanding any right of any Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from either Constituent Company, all rights, Liens and security interests of each Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of the Constituent Companies shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights, if any, of the Holders in those assets. No Guarantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Notes and the obligations of the Constituent Companies under the Note Agreement shall have been paid in cash in full and satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Each Guarantor agrees that to the extent the Issuer or any other Person makes any payment on any Note, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Guarantors' obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. The liability of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to any Holder from any source that is thereafter repaid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No Holder shall be under any obligation: (1) to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantors or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Issuer under or in respect of the Notes or the Constituent Companies under or in respect of the Note Agreement or the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder or (2) to pursue any other remedy that the Guarantors may or may not be able to pursue themselves and that may lighten the Guarantors' burden, any right to which each Guarantor hereby expressly waives.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall at any time have occurred and be continuing and such acceleration shall at such time be prevented or the right of any Holder to receive any payment under any Note shall at such time be delayed or otherwise affected by reason of the pendency against the Issuer, the Parent or any other Guarantor of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, each Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of this Guaranty and its obligations hereunder, the maturity of such principal amount shall be deemed to have been accelerated with the same effect as if the Holders had accelerated the same in accordance with the terms of the Note Agreement, and such Guarantor shall forthwith pay such accelerated principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on the Notes and any other amounts guaranteed hereunder.

Sch SGA-11

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For the avoidance of doubt, each Guarantor shall be released from this Guaranty in accordance with the terms of Section 9.7(b) of the Note Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Guaranty has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part of such Guarantor, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (1) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (2) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty will not (1) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any Property of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter, regulations or by-laws, shareholders agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or by which such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Properties may be bound or affected, (2) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries or (3) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty rank at least *pari passu* in right of payment with all other unsecured senior Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of such Guarantor, including all unsecured senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor described in Schedule 5.15 to the Note Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Such Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are Solvent.

Amendments, Waivers and Consents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Guaranty may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of each Guarantor and the Required Holders, except that (1) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Sections 3, 4 or 5, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Holder unless consented to by such Holder in writing and (2) no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of each Holder, (i) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver or (ii) amend Section 2 or this Section 6. No consent of the Holders or the Guarantors shall be required in connection with the execution and delivery of a Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement or other addition of any additional Guarantor, and each Guarantor, by its execution and delivery of this Guaranty (or Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement) consents to the addition of each additional Guarantor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Guarantors will provide each Holder with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such Holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof. The Guarantors will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6 to each Holder promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite Holders. The Guarantors will deliver executed copies of each executed Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement to each Holder promptly following the date on which it is executed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No Guarantor will, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any Holder as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by such Holder of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support is concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each Holder even if such Holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

Sch SGA-13

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any consent given pursuant to this Section 6 by a Holder that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to (1) a Constituent Company, (2) any Subsidiary or any other Affiliate or (3) any other Person in connection with, or in anticipation of, such other Person acquiring, making a tender offer for or merging with either Constituent Company and/or any of its Affiliates, in each case in connection with such consent, shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such Holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other Holders that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 6 applies equally to all Holders affected thereby and is binding upon them and upon each future holder and upon the Guarantors. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant or agreement not expressly amended or waived, or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between any Guarantor and any Holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any Holder. As used herein, the term "this Guaranty" and references thereto shall mean this Guaranty as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of all or the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding have approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Guaranty, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein to be taken upon the direction of the holders of all or a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by any Guarantor, either Constituent Company or any of their Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

Miscellaneous.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to any Holder is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guaranty now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle any Holder to exercise any remedy reserved to it under this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary for such Holder to physically produce its Note in any proceedings instituted by it or to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Guarantors will pay all sums becoming due under this Guaranty by the method and at the address specified for such purpose for such Holder, in the case of a Holder that is a Purchaser, on the Purchaser Schedule, or by such other method or at such other address as any Holder shall have from time to time specified to the Guarantors and the Issuer in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of this Guaranty or any Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any provision of this Guaranty that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the whole or any part of this Guaranty shall be now or hereafter become unenforceable against any one or more of the Guarantors for any reason whatsoever or if it is not executed by any one or more of the Guarantors, this Guaranty shall nevertheless be and remain fully binding upon and enforceable against each other Guarantor as if it had been made and delivered only by such other Guarantors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder and its successors and assigns so long as its Notes remain outstanding and unpaid. If any Guarantor enters into any consolidation or merger, pursuant to which such Guarantor or another Guarantor is not the surviving entity, then the surviving entity shall execute and deliver to each Holder its assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of this Guaranty (pursuant to such agreements and instruments as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. The parties agree to electronic contracting and signatures with respect to this Guaranty and all other documents delivered hereunder. Delivery of an electronic signature to, or a signed copy of, this Guaranty and all other documents delivered hereunder by facsimile, e-mail or other electronic transmission shall be fully binding on the parties to the same extent as the delivery of the manually signed originals and shall be admissible into evidence for all purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Holder shall request manually signed counterpart signatures to this Guaranty or any other documents delivered hereunder, each Guarantor hereby agrees to use its reasonable endeavors to provide such manually signed signature pages as soon as reasonably practicable.

In accordance with the requirements of the Guaranty Agreement, the Additional Guarantor desires to supplement the definition of Guarantor (as the same may have been heretofore supplemented) set forth in the Guaranty Agreement so that at all times from and after the date hereof, the Additional Guarantor shall be jointly and severally liable as set forth in the Guaranty Agreement for the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and the Constituent Companies under the Note Agreement and to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Guaranty Agreement.

The execution by the undersigned of this Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement shall evidence such Additional Guarantor's consent to and acknowledgment and approval of the terms set forth herein and in the Guaranty Agreement and its agreement to be bound by the covenants, terms and provisions of the Guaranty Agreement as a Guarantor thereunder and by such execution the Additional Guarantor shall be deemed to have made in favor of the Holders the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Guaranty Agreement.
