    DEFINITIONS

     

    Section
      1.1 Rules
      of
      Interpretation and Construction.
      Except
      as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the rules of interpretation
      and construction set forth below shall apply to this Agreement:

     

    (a)  All
      capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not otherwise defined have
      the
      respective meanings set forth or referred to in Section 1.1. Defined terms
      in
      this Agreement include in the singular number the plural and in the plural
      number the singular. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun includes
      the
      corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. 

     

    (b)  Any
      reference in this Agreement to “Section,” “Article,” or “Annex” is a reference
      to this Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise, any reference in
      this
      Agreement to any document or instrument is a reference to that document or
      instrument and all schedules, exhibits, and attachments thereto as amended
      and

      interpreted as illustrative only, and is not to be interpreted as a limitation
      on or an exclusive listing of the items included within the prior reference.
      In
      the event that any index or publication referenced in this Agreement ceases
      to
      be published, each such reference is deemed to be a reference to a successor

      under this Agreement on account of any event or circumstance of Force Majeure
      (hereinafter, the “Affected
      Party”),
      then
      the Affected Party shall give written notice to the other Party of such event
      or
      circumstance as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such
      event or circumstance. Each notice served by an Affected Party to the other

      Force Majeure in respect of which the Affected Party is claiming relief and
      the
      steps being taken to mitigate and overcome the effects of such event or
      circumstances. Noncompliance by the Affected Party with the procedure specified
      herein shall relieve the other Party from accepting the Affected Party’s claim
      until notice is so provided. The Affected Party shall, by reason of any event
      or
      circumstance of Force Majeure in respect of which it has claimed relief under
      this Section 9.2:

     

    (a)  use

      be
      in accordance with Prudent Utility Practice or Applicable Laws or that would
      be
      beyond its control; and (ii) the Affected Party shall not be required to settle
      any strikes or other labor disputes on terms that are adverse to the Affected
      Party and not commercially reasonable;

     

    (b)  furnish
      periodic reports to the other Party regarding the progress in overcoming the
      adverse effects of such event of Force Majeure and setting forth its best,
      good
      faith estimate concerning when it will be able to resume the performance of
      its

      under
      this Agreement, other than any obligation of either Party to pay money when
      due
      under the terms of this Agreement, shall be suspended to the extent such

      obligations.

     

    Section

      End

      When
      the Affected Party is able, or would have been able if it had complied with
      its
      obligations under Section 9.2, to resume the performance of all of its
      obligations under this Agreement affected by the occurrence of an event or
      circumstance of Force Majeure, then the period of Force Majeure relating to

      however,
      that an

      Party without the consent of such Indemnified Party so long as such claim is
      solely for monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party
      and
      such Indemnified Party is fully released from liability by the
      claimant.

     

    (d)  Each
      Indemnified Party shall cooperate with its Indemnifying Party in connection

      necessary to comply with such Governmental Authority to avoid legal sanctions
      or
      penalties, including findings of criminal or civil contempt; and (ii) disclose
      Confidential Information with respect to any litigation arising in connection
      with this Agreement only to the extent that such Confidential Information is
      required by law, rule, regulation, procedure, subpoena, court order or court
      requirement, or is material to the issues involved in or determinative to the
      outcome of such litigation; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Disclosing Party shall first (A) give the other Party (the “Non-Disclosing
      Party”)
      as
      much prior notice of disclosure as is reasonably practicable, or if prior notice
      is not reasonably practicable, then as expeditiously as possible, to permit
      the
      Non-Disclosing Party to seek any protective order or other confidentiality
      protection as the Non-Disclosing Party, in its sole discretion and at its sole
      expense, may elect to seek; and (B) reasonably cooperate with the Non-Disclosing
      Party in protecting the Confidential Information that is to be disclosed, with
      such duty of cooperation not requiring the Disclosing Party to initiate or

      discloses the terms or conditions of a Transaction (other than the name and
      any
      other identifying information relating to the other Party), provided

                from
                the date of the Agreement, the Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally
                guarantees to the Beneficiary, its successors and permitted assigns,
                the
                prompt payment on demand, of any amount due and payable to the Beneficiary
                under the Agreement, subject to any applicable grace period thereunder
                (the “Obligations”).

            

    

    

    
      	
            	(ii)	
              The
                Guarantor hereby waives acceptance of this Guaranty, diligence,
                promptness, presentment, demand on Counterparty for payment, protest
                of
                nonpayment and all notices of any kind. In addition, the Guarantor’s

                enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor.
                The
                Beneficiary shall not be obligated to proceed against Counterparty
                before
                claiming under the Guaranty nor to file any claim relating to the
                Obligations in the event that Counterparty becomes subject to a
                bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure
                of the
                Beneficiary so to file shall not affect the Guarantor’s obligations
                hereunder. The Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty
                constitute a guaranty of payment and not of
                collection.

                    of, exchange
                    or surrender any collateral for, or renew any of the Obligations,
                    and may
                    also make any agreement with Counterparty or with any other party
                    to or
                    person liable on any of the Obligations, or interested therein,
                    for the
                    extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release
                    thereof, in
                    whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof
                    or of any
                    agreement between the Beneficiary and Counterparty or any such
                    other party

                    for

                    shall
                    have resorted to any collateral security, or shall have proceeded
                    against

                    to any

                The Guarantor agrees to pay on demand all out-of-pocket expenses
                (including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements
                of

                rights of the Beneficiary hereunder; provided,
                that the Guarantor shall not be liable for any expenses of the Beneficiary
                if no payment under this Guaranty is
                due.

            

    

    

    
      	(d)	
              Subrogation.
                The Guarantor will not exercise any rights that it may acquire by
                way of
                subrogation until all Obligations to the Beneficiary shall have been
                paid
                in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation
                of the
                preceding sentence, such amount shall be held for the benefit of
                the
                Beneficiary and shall forthwith be paid to the Beneficiary to be
                credited
                and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. Subject

                shall be
                subrogated to the rights of the Beneficiary against Counterparty
                and the
                Beneficiary agrees to take at the Guarantor’s expense such steps as the
                Guarantor may reasonably request to implement such
                subrogation.

            

    

    

    
      	(e)	
              Cumulative
                Rights.
                No failure on the part of the Beneficiary to exercise, and no delay
                in
                exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as
                a waiver
                thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Beneficiary
                of
                any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future
                exercise
                of any right, remedy or power. Each and every right, remedy and power
                hereby granted to the Beneficiary or allowed it by law or other agreement
                shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised
                by the Beneficiary from time to
                time.

                subject as to enforcement to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
                and
                other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’
                rights and to general equity
                principles.

            

    

    

    
      
        	(g)

                  until
                  all of the Obligations have been satisfied in full. In the event
                  that any
                  payment by Counterparty in respect of any Obligations is rescinded
                  or must
                  otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, the Guarantor
                  shall
                  remain liable hereunder in respect of such Obligations as if such
                  payment
                  had not been made.
