ARTICLE V
 CERTAIN COVENANTS OF BUYER AND SELLER
Section 5.1    Liquor Licenses. 
(a)    Buyer's Application to Change Related Parties.
(i)    All Liquor Licenses currently held for use at the Resorts are identified on Schedule 5.1(a)(i).  Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly prepare and file an application with each applicable Governmental Authority for the change in control and change to related parties on the existing license(s) which allow and provide for the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages at the Resorts to members of the public and patrons of the Resorts ("Liquor Licenses") or for the issuance of new Liquor Licenses.
(ii)    Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer (at no cost or liability to Seller), and shall cause the Resort Owner, and TRS, at Buyer's cost, to fully cooperate with Buyer as Buyer may reasonably request to effect the change of control and change to related parties on the Liquor Licenses, without limitation, providing and/or executing such commercially reasonable and customary forms, certificates, agreements or other documents in the form required by the relevant liquor board or licensing authority and, to the extent required under Governmental Regulations, establishing any necessary escrow arrangements, to reflect a change of control and change of related parties on the current Liquor Licenses.

(a)    Seller shall cooperate with Buyer and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Manager Employer to provide information to Buyer and its management company regarding Employee names, positions, dates of hire and current compensation, as reasonably requested by Buyer, and allow Buyer the opportunity to interview the Employees.  Buyer covenants to Seller that Buyer, an Affiliate of Buyer or its management company shall, before the Closing, offer employment (to be effective as of the Closing) to substantially all Employees other than those individuals listed on Schedule 5.2, which in all events must be sufficient so that the actions of the parties pursuant to this Agreement does not trigger the application of the WARN Act and will not cause Seller, Manager Employer, Manager, any Affiliate of Seller, Manager or Manager Employer, to be subject to the notification requirements of the WARN Act. With respect to those Employees to whom offers of employment are made by Buyer, an Affiliate of Buyer, or the management 

company selected by Buyer, such offers shall be for employment on substantially the same terms and conditions as each Employee enjoyed prior to the Closing. 
(b)    Seller shall cooperate in good faith with Buyer to prepare and disseminate to the Employees mutually-agreeable communications regarding the transactions contemplated hereby in an effort to minimize business disruption prior to the Closing Date.  In the event of a dispute between Seller and Buyer regarding the content, timing, method of transmission or any other aspect of such communications, Seller shall make the final determination.
(c)    To the extent that such Employees have not been terminated prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause Manager Employer to terminate no later than the Closing Date all Employees as to whom Buyer provides notice of its intent to hire as provided above; provided that for purposes of clarity, Manager or Manager Employer, as applicable, may, in its sole discretion and at its sole expense, continue the employment after the Closing of any Employees that Buyer has not made an offer to employ in order to assist Seller in post-Closing matters or other duties.  Employees who are offered and accept employment with Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer, or Buyer's management company are the "Transferred Employees."  
(d)    Buyer and its Affiliates shall be responsible for all severance obligations (including, but not limited to, Severance Payments and COBRA benefits) (i) for Employees who are not offered employment with Buyer, an Affiliate of Buyer or the management company selected by Buyer, on or prior to the Closing Date; provided however Buyer shall receive a credit for such amounts pursuant to Section 11.1(h) in an aggregate amount not to exceed Three Hundred and Forty-Three Thousand Dollars, ($343,000) (the "Severance Reimbursement Amount"), and (ii) for all Transferred Employees who are terminated by Buyer within the twelve (12) month period following the Closing Date.  The severance payments for each Employee which is not offered employment and each Transferred Employee which is terminated, as applicable, shall be no less favorable than the severance currently offered by Manager Employer under its existing severance policy or plan (the "Severance Payments"); provided that no Transferred Employee whose employment is terminated for gross misconduct, insubordination or refusal to perform employment duties, shall be entitled to any Severance Payment hereunder.  Seller shall be solely responsible for all long-term incentive payments due to the four (4) employees set forth on Schedule 3.2(b)(iii) pursuant to the offer letters set forth on such schedule in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
(e)    Following the Closing, Buyer will provide to each Transferred Employee, for the period of at least twelve (12) months immediately following the Closing Date, no less than the same wage rate or cash salary level in effect for such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing and employee benefit plans, (equity and non-equity) incentive compensation and fringe benefits that are of at least the same or substantially the same value, in the aggregate, as those in effect immediately prior to the Closing and thereafter, for so long as such Transferred Employee is employed by Buyer, an Affiliate of Buyer or the management company selected by Buyer, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, waive any preexisting condition limitations otherwise applicable to Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents under any plan providing health benefits in which Transferred Employees will participate after the Closing Date.  For eligibility and vesting 

purposes under any tax-qualified retirement plan sponsored or maintained by Buyer and its Affiliates and for all purposes with regard to vacation, sick time, personal time off, or other similar policies, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates or the management company selected by Buyer, to, provide Transferred Employees with past service credit for such Transferred Employees' service at the Resort, as applicable. Seller and Buyer agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate, provide all necessary information required, to coordinate the direct rollover of Manager's 401(k) plan accounts of the Transferred Employees to Buyer's 401(k) plan, and take all commercially reasonable actions required to allow the rollover of existing loans made to certain participants in Manager's 401(k) plan.  Nothing in this Agreement shall require or permit Buyer to assume any obligations under any Employee Benefit Plans currently maintained by Manager Employer or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer agrees to credit each Transferred Employee for such Transferred Employee's accrued vacation days, sick-leave or other paid time-off earned and accrued by such Transferred Employee as of the Cut-Off Time under Manager Employer's employment policies; provided that Buyer receives a credit from Seller at Closing for such Transferred Employee's accrued vacation days, sick-leave or other paid time-off earned and accrued by such Transferred Employee as of the Cut-Off Time.
(f)    In the event Buyer, an Affiliate of Buyer, or the management company selected by Buyer either fails to offer to employ a sufficient number of Employees of Manager or fails to provide sufficient compensation and benefits, or effectuates terminations or layoffs after the Closing Date, in each case such that there is deemed to be an employment loss or layoff triggering WARN Act notice requirements and/or liability, Buyer shall be responsible for all liabilities and obligations arising under or pursuant to the WARN Act, including any and all fines, penalties, attorneys’ fees and costs thereunder.  Buyer shall be solely responsible for any and all liabilities, claims and obligations of any kind arising out of the employment (or termination of employment, whether actual or constructive) of Transferred Employees arising on and after the Closing Date ("Employee Claims").
(g)    No provision of this Section 5.2 shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any Employee or former Employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of Manager or Manager Employer in respect of continued employment (or resumed employment) with Buyer, any of its Affiliates, or its property manager, and no provision of this Article shall create any such rights in any such persons in respect of any benefit that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any Employee Benefit Plan of Manager or Manager Employer or any Buyer Employee Benefit Plan, and nothing herein, whether express or implied shall be deemed to constitute an amendment or modification under any Employee Benefit Plan of Manager or Manager Employer or any Buyer Employee Benefit Plan.  If (i) a party other than the parties hereto make a claim or take other action to enforce any provision in this Agreement as an amendment to Buyer's Employee Benefit Plan, and (ii) such provision is deemed to be an amendment to such Buyer Employee Benefit Plan even though not explicitly designated as such in this Agreement, then, solely with respect to Buyer Employee Benefit Plan at issue, such provision shall lapse retroactively and shall have no amendatory effect with respect thereto.  Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Agreement is intended to create a "joint employer" relationship between them with respect to any Employee. 

(h)    With respect to the Transferred Employees, Buyer agrees to utilize, or cause their respective Affiliates to utilize, the alternate procedure set forth in Rev. Proc. 2004-53 with respect to wage reporting. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer and shall provide to Buyer, or cause to be provided to Buyer, such information relating to the Transferred Employees as is necessary for Buyer to comply with Buyer’s obligations set forth in this Section 5.2.
(i)    After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and before the Closing Date, upon prior notice and request by Buyer, Seller and each of the Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Manager to allow Buyer and its hotel property manager, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense (including reimbursement for any hourly wages for such Transferred Employees who attend such training), to conduct offsite training seminars that certain Transferred Employees will be asked to attend.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the attendance by such Transferred Employees disrupt the normal operations of the Resort Property.

Seller acknowledges that there is a risk that subsequent to the Closing Date, Seller may discover, incur, or suffer from D&O Claims which were unknown or unanticipated on the date of this Agreement, including, without limitation, unknown or unanticipated D&O Claims which, if known by Seller on the date of this Agreement, may have materially affected Seller's decision to execute this Agreement.  Seller acknowledges that Seller is assuming the risk of such unknown and unanticipated D&O Claims and agrees that this Section 5.3(a) applies thereto. 
(b)    Following the Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Companies to, provide with respect to each of the D&O Parties the indemnification rights which such D&O Parties has as of the date of this Agreement under the provisions of its respective Organizational Documents, for claims arising out of, and related to, any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation based in whole or in part on or arising out of the fact that such Person is or was a manager, director or officer of any of the D&O Parties and pertaining to any matter first arising subsequent to the Closing Date and asserted or claimed after the Closing Date (the "D&O Indemnified Liabilities").  Buyer shall, or shall cause the Companies to, pay expenses in advance 

of the final disposition of any such action or proceeding to each D&O Party.  Any D&O Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.3 upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall promptly notify Buyer (but the failure so to notify shall not relieve a party from any liability which it may have under this Section 5.3 except to the extent such failure materially prejudices such party).
(c)    Buyer covenants for itself and its successors and assigns, that it and they shall not institute any action or proceeding in any court or before any administrative agency or before any other tribunal against any of the D&O Parties (including the Companies) with respect to any liabilities, actions or causes of action relating to, arising out of or resulting from this Agreement or the Transaction.

Seller agrees and acknowledges that, upon Closing, Buyer (through the Companies) shall be the sole and exclusive owner of the Intellectual Property, including all goodwill associated therewith, and agrees that it will do nothing inconsistent with such ownership.
Section 5.6    Buyer Covenant to Maintain REIT Status.  Buyer shall maintain the Trust as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes for the Tax year in which the Closing occurs.  Buyer covenants and agrees not to take any action or operate the Trust in such a manner as to cause the Trust to lose its qualification as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes for its taxable year which includes the day of Closing; provided, however, that Buyer makes no representation or warranty concerning the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes for any period prior to the Closing.  Subject to the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.6 shall limit the right of Buyer to liquidate the Trust at any time subsequent to one (1) Business Day after the Closing Date.  In addition, nothing in this Section 5.6 shall in any way be construed as a representation of Buyer regarding any pre-closing matters related to the Trust or creating any indemnification obligations relating to any pre-closing matters related to the Trust. Buyer shall have no obligation to make any expenditure to remedy for the benefit of Seller (or its direct or indirect owners) any failure to comply with a REIT qualification requirement related to any structural item, item of gross income, asset or organizational matter in existence or related to

(a)    Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as provided otherwise in this Section 12.3, (i) except with respect to the Excluded Matters and any claim under Article XIV, no amounts shall be payable to any Buyer Indemnified Party unless and until the aggregate amount payable to such Buyer Indemnified Party exceeds Two Million Seven Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars ($2,780,000) in the aggregate (the "Deductible"), in which event such Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover only that portion of Losses actually incurred as a direct result of all such breaches that exceeds the Deductible from and to the extent of the amount then available under the Holdback, and (ii) no claim for indemnification shall first be asserted after the one year anniversary of the Closing Date; provided however that a claim for indemnification with respect to any Income Taxes of the TRS or the Trust that are due with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period may be asserted until December 31, 2016 and the Retained Amount shall remain in escrow until December 31, 2016 solely to secure any such claim for indemnification.

Seller agrees to remain directly responsible for any liability for Losses with respect to the Excluded Matters, and Buyer shall not be required to seek recovery from the Holdback for Losses with respect thereto and the Deductible shall not apply to any Losses with respect to the Excluded Matters.
(b)    No party hereto shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement or otherwise for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including business interruption, loss of future revenue, profits or income, or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement or any schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(c)    No breach by Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or any schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement or any schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for any purpose hereunder, and no Buyer Indemnified Party shall have any claim or recourse against Seller or its directors, officers, managers, 

employees, Affiliates, controlling persons or representatives with respect to such breach, if Buyer or any representative of Buyer had, at the Closing, knowledge of such breach.
(d)    For all purposes of this Article XII and Article XIV, "Losses" shall be net of (i) any insurance or other recoveries actually paid to the indemnified party or its Affiliates net of any premiums or deductibles in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification and (ii) any Tax Benefit actually realized by such indemnified party or its Affiliates arising in connection with the accrual, incurrence or payment of any such Losses (including, without limitation, the net present value of any Tax Benefit arising in subsequent taxable years).

In the event that Buyer or Seller shall fail to make such commercially reasonably efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim, liability or Loss, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, the other party shall not be required to indemnify any Person for any claim, liability or Loss that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, had made such efforts.
Section 12.4    Indemnification Procedures - Third Party Claims.
(a)    The rights and obligations of a party claiming a right of indemnification under any indemnity provided in this Agreement (each an "Indemnitee") from a party to this Agreement (each an "Indemnitor") in any way relating to a third party claim shall be governed by the following provisions of this Section 12.4:
(i)    The Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of the commencement of any claim, action, suit or proceeding, or any threat thereof, or any state of facts which Indemnitee determines will give rise to a claim by the Indemnitee against the Indemnitor based on the indemnity agreements contained in this Agreement setting forth, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis of the claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known, and any other relevant information in the possession of the Indemnitee (a "Notice of Claim").  The Notice of Claim shall be accompanied by any relevant documents in the possession of the Indemnitee relating to the claim (such as copies of any summons, complaint or pleading which may have been served and, or any written demand or document evidencing the same).  No failure to give a Notice of Claim shall affect, limit or reduce the indemnification obligations of an Indemnitor hereunder, except to the extent such failure actually prejudices (in such event solely to the extent) of such prejudices, such Indemnitor's ability to successfully to defend the claim, action, suit or proceeding giving rise to the indemnification claim.
(ii)    In the event that an Indemnitee furnishes an Indemnitor with a Notice of Claim, then upon the written acknowledgment by the Indemnitor given to the Indemnitee within 30 days of receipt of the Notice of Claim, stating that the Indemnitor is undertaking and will prosecute the defense of the claim under such indemnity agreements and confirming that based on the 

information available as between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the claim covered by the Notice of Claim is subject to this Article XII and that the Indemnitor will be able to pay the full amount of potential liability in connection with any such claim (including, without limitation, any claim, action, suit or proceeding and all proceedings on appeal or other review which counsel for the Indemnitee may reasonably consider appropriate) (an "Indemnification Acknowledgment"), then the claim covered by the Notice of Claim may be defended by the Indemnitor, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitee is authorized to file any motion, answer or other pleading that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect its interests during such 30-day period.  The delivery of an Indemnification Acknowledgment shall not preclude Indemnitor's subsequent right to deny indemnification and Indemnitor's right to reimbursement of all costs of any nature incurred, if it is ultimately determined that such claim was not indemnifiable by Indemnitor.  However, in the event the Indemnitor does not furnish an Indemnification Acknowledgment to the Indemnitee or does not offer reasonable assurances to the Indemnitee as to Indemnitor's financial capacity to satisfy any Judgment or final settlement, the Indemnitee may, upon written notice to the Indemnitor, assume the defense (with legal counsel chosen by the Indemnitee) and dispose of the claim, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor to the extent that the Indemnitor is ultimately responsible hereunder to indemnify the Indemnitee with respect to such claim.  Notwithstanding receipt of an Indemnification Acknowledgment, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own counsel in respect of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnitee's own cost and expense, unless the employment of such counsel and the payment of such fees and expenses shall have been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor in connection with the defense of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.
(iii)    The Indemnitee or the Indemnitor, as the case may be, who is controlling the defense of the claim, action, suit or proceeding, shall keep the other fully informed of such claim, action, suit or proceeding at all stages thereof, whether or not such party is represented by counsel.  The parties hereto agree to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding.  Subject to the Indemnitor furnishing the Indemnitee with an Indemnification Acknowledgment in accordance with Section 12.4(a)(ii), the Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnitor and provide such assistance, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor, as the Indemnitor may reasonably request in connection with the defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, including, but not limited to, providing the Indemnitor with access to and use of all relevant corporate records and making available its officers and employees for depositions, pre-trial discovery and as witnesses at trial, if required.  In requesting any such cooperation, the Indemnitor shall have due regard for, and attempt not to be disruptive of, the business and day-to-day operations of the Indemnitee and shall follow the requests of the Indemnitee regarding any documents or instruments which the Indemnitee believes should be given confidential treatment.  
(b)    Neither party shall make or enter into any settlement of any claim, action, suit or proceeding which one party has undertaken to defend, without the other party's prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless there is no obligation, directly or indirectly, on the part of such other party to contribute to any portion of the payment for any of the Losses, such other party receives a general and unconditional release with respect to the 

claim (in form, substance and scope reasonably acceptable to such other party), there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law by, or effect on any other claim that may be made against such other party and, in the reasonable judgment of such other party, the relief granted in connection therewith is not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on such other party or its reputation or prospects.
(c)    Any claim for indemnification that may be made under more than one subsection under Section 12.1 may be made under the subsection that the claiming party may elect in its sole discretion, notwithstanding that such claim may be made under more than one subsection.
(d)    For purposes of this Agreement, any claim shall be deemed to have been finally determined if (i) agreed to by Buyer and Seller, (ii) determined by a final court order or (iii) determined by a binding arbitration award.
Section 12.5    Indemnification Procedures - Other Claims, Indemnification Generally.  
(a)    A claim for indemnification for any matter not relating to a third party claim may be asserted by giving reasonable notice directly by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor.  The Indemnitee shall afford the Indemnitor access to all relevant corporate records and other information in its possession relating thereto.
(b)    If any party becomes obligated to indemnify another party with respect to any claim for indemnification hereunder and the amount of liability with respect thereto shall have been finally determined in accordance with Section 12.4(d), the indemnifying party shall, subject to the provisions of Section 12.3, pay such amount to the indemnified party in immediately available funds (or, in the case of Seller, authorize the release from the Holdback) within ten (10) days following written demand by the indemnified party.  The indemnifying party shall not be obligated to pay any amount or authorize any release from the Holdback, as applicable, under this Section 12.5(b) until such final determination.
Section 12.6    Assignment of Claims.
(a)    If any Buyer Indemnified Party receives any payment from Seller in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 12.1 and Buyer Indemnified Party could have recovered all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a "Potential Contributor") based on the underlying claim asserted against Seller, Buyer Indemnified Party shall assign, on a non-recourse basis and without any representation or warranty, such of its rights to proceed against the Potential Contributor as are necessary to permit Seller to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment.  
(b)    If any such assignment would afford the Potential Contributor any defense to the payment of the same, such assignment shall not take place and Buyer Indemnified Party will, at Seller's direction and expense, take all reasonable actions to seek to recover such claim from such Potential Contributor.  

(c)    Any payment received in respect of such claim against the Potential Contributor (whether by Seller or the relevant Buyer Indemnified Party as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) shall be distributed:
(i)    first, to Buyer Indemnified Party in the amount of any deductible or similar amount required to be paid by Buyer Indemnified Party prior to Seller being required to make any payment to Buyer Indemnified Party plus, in the case of any claim by a Buyer Indemnified Party as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim;
(ii)    second, to Seller in an amount equal to the aggregate payments made by Seller to Buyer Indemnified Party, in respect of such claim, plus the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim; and 
(iii)    the balance, if any, to Buyer Indemnified Party.
Section 12.7    Indemnification as Sole Remedy.  If the Closing has occurred, the sole and exclusive remedy available to a party in the event of a breach by the other party to this Agreement of any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement or any Closing Document which survives the Closing shall be the indemnifications provided for in this Agreement, which indemnifications shall survive the Closing as provided in this Agreement.  Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article XII and elsewhere in this Agreement, from and after the Closing Date, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified from and against any Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties actually incur as a direct result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement or any Closing Document solely to the extent of the amount then available under the Holdback (other than with respect to the Excluded Matters).  
Section 12.8    Purchase Price Adjustment.  Any indemnity payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes.

ARTICLE XIII

(a)    by the written mutual consent of Seller and Buyer; 
(b)    by written notice by Seller or Buyer, if 90 days shall have passed after the date that any court of competent jurisdiction or any other Governmental Agency shall have issued a judgment or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Closing of Transaction and such judgment or other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Closing of the Transaction shall still be in effect;

(c)    by written notice at any time after March 31, 2015 (the "Outside Date"), by either Buyer or Seller if the Closing has not occurred by such date; provided, however, that (i) the party providing such notice is not then in breach in any material respect of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and (ii) the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.1(c) shall not be available to any party hereto whose intentional failure to fulfill any material obligation under this Agreement has been the principal cause of or resulting in the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to the Outside Date; 
(d)    by Seller by written notice to Buyer if:
(i)    Seller is not then in material breach of any provision of this Agreement and there has been a breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 6.1(a) or Section 6.1(b) and such breach, inaccuracy or failure has not been cured by Buyer within thirty (30) days of Buyer's receipt of written notice of such breach from Seller; or
(ii)    any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 shall not have been, or if it becomes apparent that any of such conditions will not be, fulfilled by the Outside Date, unless such failure shall be due to the failure of Seller to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing. 
(e)    by Buyer by written notice to Seller if:
(i)    Buyer is not then in material breach of any provision of this Agreement and there has been a breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Seller pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b) and such breach, inaccuracy or failure has not been cured by Seller within thirty (30) of Seller's receipt of written notice of such breach from Buyer; or
(ii)    any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 shall not have been, or if it becomes apparent that any of such conditions will not be, fulfilled by the Outside Date, unless such failure shall be due to the failure of Buyer to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing.      
(f)    by Buyer pursuant to Section 10.2(b).
(g)    [Intentionally Omitted]. 
(h)    by Seller pursuant to Section 2.3(d) if Buyer fails to deposit the Deposit.
(i)    In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 13.1, this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force or effect and neither party shall have any rights or obligations against or to the other except (i) for those provisions hereof which by their terms expressly survive the termination of this Agreement and (ii) as set forth in Section 13.2.

Section 13.2    Payment of Deposit.
(a)    In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 13.1(a), Section 13.1(b), Section 13.1(c) (provided that Buyer elects to terminate pursuant to Section 13.1(c) and Buyer is not then in breach in any material respect of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and Buyer's intentional failure to fulfill any material obligation under this Agreement is not the principal cause of or resulting in the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to the Outside Closing Date), Section 13.1(e) (unless such failure shall be due to the failure of Buyer to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing), or Section 13.1(f), the Deposit Escrow Agent shall immediately disburse the Deposit to Buyer, and upon such disbursement, Seller and Buyer shall have no further obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive such termination.  Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledge and agree that it would be impractical and/or extremely difficult to fix or establish the actual damage sustained by Buyer as a result of such default by Seller, and agree that the return of the Deposit is a reasonable approximation thereof.  In the event of a termination as set forth in this Section 13.2(a) as a result of any default by Seller, the Deposit shall constitute and be deemed to be the agreed and liquidated damages of Buyer, and shall be paid by the Deposit Escrow Agent to Buyer as Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy hereunder.  The payment of the Deposit as liquidated damages is not intended to be a forfeiture or penalty, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Buyer.

(g)    As an alternative to terminating this Agreement as a result of a material breach or default by Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder and receiving payment of the Deposit pursuant to Section 13.2(a) as a result of a material breach or default by Seller, Buyer shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of Seller's obligation to close on the sale of the Transferred Shares pursuant to this Agreement (but, in the event specific performance is obtained, Buyer may not seek payment of the Deposit).

Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledge and 

agree that it would be impractical and/or extremely difficult to fix or establish the actual damage sustained by Seller as a result of such termination of this Agreement pursuant to any Section, and agree that being paid the Deposit is a reasonable approximation thereof.  Accordingly, in the event of such termination as set forth in this Section 13.2(c) as a result of Buyer's default, the Deposit shall constitute and be deemed to be the agreed and liquidated damages of Seller, and shall be paid by the Deposit Escrow Agent to Seller as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy hereunder.

(iii)    Buyer shall have the right to review such Tax Returns and all work papers and procedures used to prepare them, and Buyer shall have the right to access any other 

information of or controlled by Seller relating to such Tax Returns. If Buyer, within 10 days after delivery of any such Tax Return, notifies Seller that it objects to any item in such Tax Return, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute and, if they are unable to do so, any disputed item shall be resolved (within a reasonable time, taking into account the deadline for filing such Tax Return) by an internationally recognized independent accounting firm chosen by both Buyer and Seller. Upon resolution of all disputed items, the relevant Tax Return shall be filed on that basis. 
(iv)    The costs, fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller, and the accounting firm's determination shall be binding on the parties for purposes of filing such Tax Returns.
(b)    (i)    At Buyer's expense, Buyer will be responsible for and will cause to be prepared and duly filed when due all Tax Returns with respect to the Companies for all taxable periods that include, but do not end on, the Closing Date and all taxable periods commencing on or after the Closing Date.

Upon resolution of all disputed items, the relevant Tax Return shall be filed on that basis.  
(iv)    The costs, fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller, and the accounting firm's determination shall be binding on the parties hereto for purposes of filing such Tax Returns.

(a)    In the event (i) Seller or its Affiliates or (ii) Buyer or its Affiliates receives notice of any pending or threatened Tax audit or assessment or other dispute concerning Taxes with respect to which the other party may incur liability under this Article XIV, the party in receipt of 

such notice promptly shall notify the other party of such matter in writing, provided that failure of a party to comply with this provision shall not affect any party's right to indemnification hereunder unless such failure materially adversely affects the ability of the party that did not receive notice to challenge such Tax audits or assessments.
(b)    To the extent Seller is financially responsible under the terms of this Agreement for any Taxes payable, Seller shall have the right to control in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating to any Tax for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, and to employ counsel of its choice, subject to Buyer’s reasonable approval, at Seller's expense.  
(c)    Buyer shall have the sole right to represent the interests of the Companies in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating to Taxes with respect to taxable periods including (but not ending on) or beginning after the Closing Date and to employ counsel of its choice at Buyer's expense.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be entitled to settle, either administratively or after the commencement of litigation, any claim regarding Taxes that adversely would affect the liability of Seller for any Tax for any Pre‐Closing Tax Period or create an indemnity obligation on the part of Seller, without the prior consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed; provided, however such consent shall not be required to the extent that Buyer indemnifies Seller against the effects of such settlement.
(d)    In addition to Seller's consent rights under Section 14.4(c) above, in connection with any audit or administrative or court proceeding concerning income tax liability for which Seller is obligated to indemnify Buyer under Section 14.1(a), Seller shall have the right to participate in the representation and defense of the Companies with respect to such audit or proceeding, including without limitation receiving copies of all communications, participating in meetings and settlement discussions, choice of legal counsel, making of settlement offers and decisions and directing of counsel relating to such audit or proceeding.

(c)    make available to the other and to any Taxing Authority as reasonably requested all information, records, and documents relating to Taxes; 
(d)    provide timely notice to the other in writing of any pending or threatened Tax audit or assessment for taxable periods for which the other may have a liability under this Article XIV; and

(b)    relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby;

In addition, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between Seller, its Affiliates, the Companies, on the one hand, and Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP and/or Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, on the other hand, in the course of the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to Seller and its respective Affiliates (and not the Companies).  Accordingly, Buyer agrees that the Companies not have access to any such communications, or to the files of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP and relating to their engagement in connection transaction contemplated by this Agreement, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (a) Seller and its Affiliates (and not the Companies) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of the Companies shall be a holder thereof, (b) to the extent that files of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only Seller and its Affiliates (and not the Companies) shall hold such property rights and (c) neither Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP nor Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP shall have any duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to any of the Companies by reason of any attorney-client relationship between either of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP or Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP and the Companies or otherwise.

ARTICLE II. CREDIT FACILITY

Section 2.1.    Loans.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.16 below, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Loans to the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however Loans shall not be made in excess of amounts that would 

cause a violation of the limitations set forth in Section 2.16.  Each borrowing of Loans hereunder shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount (except that, subject to Section 2.16, any such borrowing of Loans may be in the aggregate amount of the Commitments of all Lenders minus the sum of the aggregate principal balance of all Loans, which Loans, if less than $1,000,000, must be Base Rate Loans).  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and, prior to the Maturity Date, reborrow Loans.
Section 2.2.    Requests for Loans.  
Not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time at least one (1) Business Day prior to a borrowing of Base Rate Loans and not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time at least three (3) Business Days prior to a borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be borrowed, the date such Loans are to be borrowed (which must be a Business Day), the use of the proceeds of such Loans, the Type of the requested Loans, and if such Loans are to be LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period for such Loans.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the telephonic request of Doug Vicari, James Francis or Graham Wootten as the Borrower’s duly authorized agents, or such other and/or additional authorized agents as the Borrower shall designate in writing to Administrative Agent (collectively, the “Borrower’s Agents”).  The Borrower’s telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate and shall be followed promptly by the original or a facsimile or electronic mail Notice of Borrowing required pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.2.  Prior to delivering a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower may (without specifying whether a Loan will be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan) request that the Administrative Agent provide the Borrower with the most recent LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall provide such quoted rate to the Borrower on the date of such request or as soon as possible thereafter.
Section 2.3.    Funding of Loans.  
Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under Section 2.2, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.  Each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the Loan to be made by such Lender to the Borrower with the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on the date such proposed Loans are to be made available to the Borrower.  Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall make available to the Borrower in the account specified in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement, not later than 2:00 p.m., Central time, on the date of the requested borrowing of Loans, the proceeds of such amounts received by the Administrative Agent.  No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

Section 2.4.    Assumptions Regarding Funding by Lenders.  
With respect to Loans to be made after the Effective Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Loan to be made by such Lender in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Loan to be provided by such Lender.  In such event, if such Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Loan, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Loan with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Loan is made available to the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay the amount of such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Lender.
Section 2.5.    Amendment and Restatement of Third Amended Credit Agreement; Release of Liens.
The parties to this Agreement agree that, upon (i) the execution and delivery by each of the parties hereto of this Agreement and (ii) satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1, the terms and provisions of the Third Amended Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended, superseded and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.  This Agreement is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation.  All “Loans” made and “Obligations” incurred under the Third Amended Credit Agreement which are outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Obligations under (and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the foregoing, upon the effectiveness hereof: (a) all references in the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Third Amended Credit Agreement) to the “Administrative Agent”, the “Credit Agreement” and the “Loan Documents” shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative Agent, this Agreement and the Loan Documents, (b) all obligations constituting “Obligations” with any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender which are outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (c) the Administrative Agent shall make such reallocations, sales, assignments or other relevant actions in respect of each Lender’s credit and loan exposure under the Third Amended Credit Agreement as are necessary in order that each such Lender’s outstanding Loans hereunder reflect such Lender’s Commitment Percentages on the Effective Date and (d) each Departing Lender’s “Commitment” under the Third Amended Credit Agreement shall be terminated, 

each Departing Lender shall have received payment in full of all of the “Obligations” under the Third Amended Credit Agreement (other than obligations to pay fees and expenses with respect to which the Borrower has not received an invoice, contingent indemnity obligations and other contingent obligations owing to it under the “Loan Documents” as defined in the Third Amended Credit Agreement) and each Departing Lender shall not be a Lender hereunder. The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders (including each Departing Lender) amounts payable, if any, to the Lenders under Section 5.4 as a result of the prepayment of any “Loans” under and as defined in the Third Amended Credit Agreement.  By their execution of this Agreement each of the Lenders under the Third Amended Credit Agreement hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any “Collateral” securing the “Obligations” under the Third Amended Credit Agreement.   The Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrower’s expense, promptly execute and deliver all documents and instruments the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent in connection with such release; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty.
Section 2.6.    Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.
(a)    Rates.  The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan (including any Loans outstanding on the Effective Date) to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:
(i)    during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans; and
(ii)    during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefore, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law). 
(b)    Payment of Interest.  All accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective Date and (ii) on any date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity, due to acceleration or otherwise).  Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.  All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest 

error.  In the case of interest on Loans outstanding on the Effective Date, interest accrued as of the Effective Date shall be allocated among the Lenders based on their Commitment Percentages under the Third Amended Credit Agreement, and interest accruing from and after the Effective Date shall be allocated among the Lenders based on their Commitment Percentages under this Agreement.  
Section 2.7.    Number of Interest Periods.
There may be no more than seven (7) different Interest Periods outstanding at the same time.
Section 2.8.    Repayment of Loans.
The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans on the Maturity Date.  
Section 2.9.    Prepayments.
(a)    Optional.  Subject to Section 5.4, the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time without premium or penalty.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the prepayment of any Loan.  Each voluntary prepayment of Loans shall be either (i) in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof or (ii) the entire outstanding principal amount of the Loans (together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon).
(b)    Mandatory.  
(i)    Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans exceeds the aggregate amount of the Commitments, the Borrower shall immediately upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders the amount of such excess. 
(ii)    Application of Mandatory Prepayments.  Amounts paid under the preceding subsection (b)(i) shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Loans pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2.   If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 5.4.
Section 2.10.    Late Charges.
If any payment required under this Agreement is not paid within ten (10) days after it becomes due and payable, the Borrower shall pay a late charge for late payment to compensate the Lenders for the loss of use of funds and for the expenses of handling the delinquent payment, in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of such delinquent payment.  Such late charge shall be paid in any event not later than the due date of the next subsequent installment of principal and/or interest.  In the event the maturity of the Obligations hereunder occurs or is accelerated pursuant to Section 11.2, this Section shall apply only to payments overdue prior to the time of such acceleration.  This Section shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the Lenders’ right to accelerate payment of any of the Obligations as permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.11.    Continuation.
So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount, and each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period.  Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation.  Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loan and portion thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the telephonic request of any of the Borrower’s Agents.  The Borrower’s telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate and shall be followed promptly by the original or a facsimile or electronic mail Notice of Continuation required pursuant to the third sentence of this Section 2.11.  Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Continuation.  If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefore, continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month; provided, however that if a Default or Event of Default exists, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.12 or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.
Section 2.12.    Conversion.
So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication, Convert all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type.  Each Conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount, and upon Conversion of a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall pay accrued interest to the date of Conversion on the principal amount so Converted in accordance with Section 2.6.  Any Conversion of a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time three (3) Business Days prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate or LIBOR Loans.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Conversion.  Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telecopy, electronic mail 

or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the telephonic request of any of the Borrower’s Agents.  The Borrower’s telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate and shall be followed promptly by the original or a facsimile or electronic mail Notice of Conversion required pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.12.  Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.  
Section 2.13.    Notes.
(a)    Notes.  To the extent requested by any Lender, the Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Note, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.  
(b)    Records.  The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that (i) the failure of a Lender to make any such record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents and (ii) if there is a discrepancy between such records of a Lender and the statements of accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8, in the absence of manifest error, the statements of account maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8 shall be controlling.
(c)    Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes.  Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.  
Section 2.14.    Voluntary Reductions of the Commitment.
The Borrower may terminate or reduce the amount of the Commitments at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior notice to the Administrative Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (which in the case of any partial reduction of the Commitments shall not be less than $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount in the aggregate) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent (“Commitment Reduction Notice”); provided, however, (a) the Borrower may not reduce the aggregate amount of the Commitments to an amount that is less than the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans unless, on or before the effective date of 

such reduction, the Borrower complies with the provisions of Section 2.9(b)(i) and (b) the Borrower may not reduce the aggregate amount of the Commitments below $100,000,000 unless the Borrower is fully terminating the Commitments.  Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed termination or Commitment reduction.  The Commitments, once reduced pursuant to this Section, may not be increased.  The Borrower shall pay all interest and fees, on the Loans accrued to the date of such reduction or termination of the Commitments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, including but not limited to any applicable compensation due to each Lender in accordance with Section 5.4 of this Agreement.  
Section 2.15.    Extension of Maturity Date.  
Borrower shall have the option to extend the Maturity Date from the Original Maturity Date to the Extended Maturity Date, upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent:
(a)    The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with written notice of the Borrower's request to exercise the Option to Extend not more than one hundred twenty (120) days but not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the Original Maturity Date; and
(b)    As of the date of the Borrower's delivery of notice of request to exercise the Option to Extend, and as of the Original Maturity Date, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Borrower shall so certify in writing; and
(c)    The Borrower shall execute or cause the execution of all documents reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to exercise the Option to Extend; and
(d)    There shall not have occurred any change in any Borrowing Base Property since the date on which it first became a Borrowing Base Property or the financial condition of the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor from that which existed as of December 31, 2014 that, in the determination of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, has had a Material Adverse Effect; and
(e)    On or before the Original Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent all closing and recording costs, the costs of preparing any extension documents, including reasonable attorney’s fees if any, and any other reasonable costs and expense associated with the Borrower’s exercise of its extension right; and
(f)    On or before the Original Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the fee provided for in Section 3.5(c); and 
(g)    Borrower shall be in compliance with all of the covenants set forth in Section 10.1.
Section 2.16.    Amount Limitations.  
Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall make any Loan in an amount which, immediately after the making of such Loan, would cause the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans to exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time.

Section 2.17.    Funds Transfer Disbursements.
The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement. 
Section 2.18.    Increase in Commitments.  
(a)    Request for and Conditions of Increase.  The Borrower shall have the right to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Commitments by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given; provided, however, that after giving effect to any such increases the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not exceed $450,000,000.  Each such increase in the Commitments must be an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.  The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such increase in the Commitments, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and the allocations of the increase in the Commitments among such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders.  No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Commitment.  No Person shall become a Lender hereto pursuant to this Section 2.18 without the approval of Borrower.  If a new Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Lender is increasing its Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder (or in the case of an existing Lender, increases its Commitment hereunder) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Lenders its Commitment Percentage or, in the case of a Lender that is increasing its Commitment, a percentage equal to the increase of its Commitment Percentage (determined in each case with respect to the Lenders’ relative Commitments and after giving effect to the increase of Commitments) of any outstanding Loans, by making available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other Lenders, in same day funds, an amount equal to (A) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Loans to be purchased by such Lender plus (B) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders amounts payable, if any, to such Lenders under Section 5.4 as a result of the prepayment of any such Loans.

ARTICLE III. PAYMENTS, FEES AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 3.1.    Payments.
(a)    Payments by Borrower.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest, Fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. Central time on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).  Subject to Section 11.5, the Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied.  Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender.  In the event the Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Lender within one (1) Business 

Day of receipt of such amounts, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment for the period of such extension.
(b)    Presumptions Regarding Payments by Borrower.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand that amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  
Section 3.2.    Pro Rata Treatment.
Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:  (a) each borrowing from Lenders under Section 2.1 shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees under Sections 3.5(a), 3.5(b) and 3.5(c) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.14 shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time such Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loans being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; (c) each payment of interest on Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account  of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; and (d) the Conversion and Continuation of Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Section 5.1) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Loans and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s portion of each Loan of such Type shall be coterminous.  Any payment or prepayment of principal or interest made (i)(A) during the existence of a Default or Event of Default or (B) pursuant to Section 2.9(b)(ii), shall be made for the account of the Lenders in accordance with the order set forth in Section 11.5 and (ii) pursuant to Section 2.9(b)(i), shall be made for the account of the Lenders holding Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, holding Loans, in accordance with the order set forth in Section 11.5.

Section 3.3.    Sharing of Payments, Etc.
If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender not in accordance with the terms of  this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 11.5, such Lender shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2 or Section 11.5, as applicable.  To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with the respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower. 
Section 3.4.    Several Obligations.
No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.
Section 3.5.    Fees.
(c)    Closing Fee.  On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each Lender all loan fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
(d)    Unused Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an unused fee equal to the sum of the daily amount by which the aggregate amount of the Commitments exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Loans set forth in the table below multiplied by the corresponding per annum rate:

	
		
	Amount by Which Commitments Exceed Loans
	Unused Fee

	$0 to and including an amount less than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments
	0.20%

	Greater than or equal to an amount equal to 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments
	0.30%

Such fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the term of this Agreement and on the Maturity Date or any earlier date of termination of the Commitments or reduction of the Commitments to zero.  
(e)    Extension Fee.  If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.15, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a fee equal to 0.15% of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment (whether or not utilized).  
(f)    Administrative and Other Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other fees of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Arrangers as provided in the Fee Letter and as may be otherwise agreed to in writing from time to time.
All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees, to the applicable Lenders.  Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
Section 3.6.    Computations.
Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.
Section 3.7.    Usury.
In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith.  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.  The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.6(a)(i) and (ii).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, 

are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money.  All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.
Section 3.8.    Statements of Account.
The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error.  The failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.
Section 3.9.    Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:
(a)    Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Requisite Lenders and in Section 13.7.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, Fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.4 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans, in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Article VI were satisfied 

or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages).  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(c)    Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section 3.5(b) or 3.5(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
(d)    Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to Fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(e)    Purchase of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, by the Borrower giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment and Loans to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6(b).  No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  In addition, any Lender which is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and Loans via an assignment subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6(b).  In connection with any such assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate Assignment and Assumption and, notwithstanding Section 13.6(b), shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $7,500.  The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders.
Section 3.10.    Taxes; Foreign Lenders.
(a)    Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(b)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law.  If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or other applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability (together with reasonably appropriate details supporting the calculation of such payment or liability) delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or another Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection.

(f)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower or such other Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(g)    Status of Lenders.  
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the immediately following clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(I)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to 

payments of interest under any Loan Document, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(II)    an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;
(III)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or
(IV)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or Exhibit J-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable 

Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Amendment and Restatement. For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under the FATCA, from and after the effective date of this Agreement the Borrower and 

the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).
(j)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.  
Section 3.11.    Lender Failure to Make Payment.
If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.4, 3.1(b) or 12.8, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

(b)    Additional Borrowing Base Properties.  If after the Effective Date the Borrower desires that the Lenders include any additional Property in calculation of the provisions of Sections 10.1(b)(ii), (f) and (g), the Borrower shall so notify the Administrative Agent in writing.

ARTICLE V. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.
Section 5.1.    Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.
(a)    Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender determines that any Regulatory Change affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding 

capital or liquidity ratios or requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(b)    Additional Costs.  In addition to, and not in limitation of the immediately preceding subsection, the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it determines are attributable to its making, Continuing, Converting, or maintaining of any Loans or its obligation to make any Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its Loans or its Commitments (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:
(i)    changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or its Commitments (other than Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and Connection Income Taxes);
(ii)    imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other category of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined to the extent utilized when determining LIBOR for such Loans) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitments of such Lender hereunder); or
(iii)        imposes on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender.
(c)        Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans.  Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding subsections (a) and (b), if by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in  this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets 

that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5 shall apply).
(d)    Notification and Determination of Additional Costs.  Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to notify the Borrower (and in the case of a Lender, to notify the Administrative Agent) of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of a Lender to the Administrative Agent as well) a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request for compensation under this Section.  Determinations by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent or any such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
Section 5.2.    Suspension of LIBOR Loans.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:
(a)    The Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for the ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period;
(b)    the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein, or
(c)    the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period; 
then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

Section 5.3.    Illegality.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5 shall be applicable).
Section 5.4.    Compensation.
The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expense attributable to:
(a)    any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or
(b)    any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Section 6.2 to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.
Not in limitation of the foregoing, such compensation shall include, without limitation, an amount equal to the then present value of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan for the remainder of the Interest Period at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan, less (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date on which such LIBOR Loan was repaid, prepaid or Converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, Convert or Continue such LIBOR Loan calculating present value by using as a discount rate LIBOR quoted on such date, including without limitation any losses or expenses incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties.  Upon the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.  Any such statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
Section 5.5.    Treatment of Affected Loans.
If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2, or Section 5.3 then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of 

a Conversion required by Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2, or Section 5.3 on such earlier date as such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, may specify to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, as applicable)) and, unless and until such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1(e), Section 5.2, or Section 5.3 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:
(i)    to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and
(ii)    all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.
If such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, as applicable) that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1(c), 5.2 or 5.3 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.
Section 5.6.    Affected Lenders.
If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.10 or 5.1, and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.1(c) or 5.3 but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the Borrower may demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6(b) for a purchase price equal to the aggregate principal balance of all Loans then owing to the Affected Lender, plus (y) any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, or any other amount as may be mutually agreed upon by such Affected Lender and Eligible Assignee.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender, any other Lender or any titled agent be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders.  The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected 

Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.10, 5.1 or 5.4) with respect to any period up to the date of replacement.
Section 5.7.    Change of Lending Office.
Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.10, 5.1 or 5.3 to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.
Section 5.8.    Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.
Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article.

ARTICLE VII. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 7.1.    Representations and Warranties.
In order to induce the Administrative Agent and each Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender as follows:
(a)    Organization; Power; Qualification.  Each of the Loan Parties is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority to own or lease its respective properties and to carry on its respective business and is duly qualified as, and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or other legal entity and authorized to do business, in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or authorization and where the failure to be so qualified or authorized could reasonably be expected to have, in each instance, a Material Adverse Effect.
(b)    Ownership Structure.  Part I of Schedule 7.1(b) is, as of the Agreement Date, a complete and correct list of the Parent Guarantor and all of its Subsidiaries setting forth for each such Subsidiary, (i) the jurisdiction of organization of such Person, (ii) each Person holding any Equity Interest in such Person, (iii) the nature of the Equity Interests held by each such Person and (iv) the percentage of ownership of such Person represented by such Equity Interests.  As of the Agreement Date, except as disclosed in such Schedule (A), each of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and their Subsidiaries owns, free and clear of all Liens, and has the unencumbered right to vote, all outstanding Equity Interests in each Person shown to be held by it on such Schedule, (B) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each such Person organized as a corporation is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and (C) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, commitments, preemptive rights or agreements of any kind (including, without limitation, any stockholders’ or voting trust agreements) for the issuance, sale, registration or voting of, or outstanding securities convertible into, any additional shares of capital stock of any class, or partnership or other Equity Interests of any type in, any such Person.  As of the Agreement Date, Part II of Schedule 7.1(b) correctly sets forth all Unconsolidated Affiliates of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, including the correct legal name of such Person, the type of legal entity which each such Person is, and all Equity Interests in such Person held directly or indirectly by the Parent Guarantor or the Borrower.  Part I of Schedule 7.1(b) may be updated from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(c)    Authorization of Agreement, Notes, Loan Documents and Borrowings.  The Borrower has the requisite partnership power, and has taken all necessary limited partnership action, and the Parent Guarantor has taken all necessary action, to authorize the Borrower, to borrow and obtain other extensions of credit hereunder.  The Borrower and each other Loan Party has the requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power, and has taken all necessary corporate, partnership or limited liability company action, and the Parent Guarantor has taken all necessary action, to authorize each Loan Party, to execute, deliver and perform each of the Loan Documents and the Fee Letter to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms and 

perform its respective obligations thereunder.  The Loan Documents and the Fee Letter to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of such Person and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with its respective terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations contained herein or therein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally.
(d)    Compliance of Agreement, Etc. with Laws.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which any Loan Party is a party and the Fee Letter in accordance with their respective terms and the borrowings and other extensions of credit hereunder do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both: (i) require any Governmental Approval that has not been obtained or violate any Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) relating to any Loan Party; (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the organizational documents of any Loan Party, or any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which any Loan Party is a party or by which it or any of its respective properties may be bound; or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any Property now owned or hereafter acquired by any Loan Party other than in favor of the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders.
(e)    Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals.  Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary of any Loan Party is in compliance with each Governmental Approval and all other Applicable Laws relating to it except for noncompliances which, and Governmental Approvals the failure to possess which, could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to cause a Default or Event of Default or have a Material Adverse Effect.
(f)    Title to Properties; Liens.  Schedule 7.1(f) is, as of the Agreement Date, a complete and correct listing of all real estate assets of the Loan Parties.  Each of the Loan Parties holds good, marketable and insurable title each Property purported to be owned by it (or, in the case of the leasehold estate under a ground lease, a good, valid and insurable leasehold estate), subject only to Permitted Liens, and has good and sufficient title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all FF&E and other personal property (except such as may be owned by the Manager as provided in the applicable Management Agreement) necessary for the continued operating of such Property in the ordinary course.

To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender enforce their security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Guaranteed Obligations, or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefore, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
Section 11.5.    Allocation of Proceeds.
If an Event of Default exists and maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations has been accelerated or the Maturity Date has occurred, all payments received by the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, in respect of any principal of or interest on the Guaranteed Obligations or any other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, shall be applied in the following order and priority:
(a)    to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees, payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
(b)    to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders under the Loan Documents, including attorney fees, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them;
(c)    to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) payable to them;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guaranteed Obligations arising under Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Specified Derivatives Provider.  Each Specified Derivatives Provider not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article XII for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.
Section 11.6.    Intentionally Omitted.
Section 11.7.    Rescission of Acceleration by Requisite Lenders.
If at any time after acceleration of the maturity of the Loans and the other Obligations, the Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Obligations which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this Agreement) and all Events of Default and Defaults (other than nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest on the Obligations due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall become remedied or waived to the satisfaction of the Requisite Lenders (or, if the matter that resulted in such Event of Default may be waived only by all of Lenders, then waived to the satisfaction of all of the Lenders), then by written notice to the Borrower, the Requisite Lenders may elect, in the sole discretion of such Requisite Lenders, to rescind and annul the acceleration and its consequences.  The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind all of the Lenders to a decision which may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are satisfied.
Section 11.8.    Performance by Administrative Agent.
If the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower or such Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein.  In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower or such Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
Section 11.9.    Rights Cumulative.

(a)    Generally. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents, and the Fee Letter, and of the Specified Derivatives Providers under the Specified Derivative Contracts, shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law.  In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Specified Derivatives Providers may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.
(b)    Enforcement by Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article XII for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Specified Derivatives Provider from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit under any Specified Derivatives Contract, (iii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 13.4 (subject to the terms of Section 3.3), or (v) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article XII and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 3.3, any Lender may, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Requisite Lenders.
ARTICLE XII. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 12.1.    Appointment and Authorization.
Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.  Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose 

on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law.  Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article IX. that the Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement).
Section 12.2.    Wells Fargo as Lender.
Wells Fargo, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers as a Lender or a Specified Derivatives Provider under this Agreement and any other Loan Document or any Specified Derivatives Contract, as the case may be, as any other Lender or Specified Derivatives Provider, and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in its individual capacity.  Wells Fargo and its Affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefore to the other Lenders or Specified Derivatives Providers.  Further, the Administrative Agent and any 

Affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or any Specified Derivatives Contract or otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders or any Specified Derivatives Provider.  The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower, other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.
Section 12.3.    [Reserved].
Section 12.4.    [Reserved].
Section 12.5.    Approvals of Lenders.
All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include a legend substantially as follows, printed in capital letters or boldface type: “THIS COMMUNICATION REQUIRES IMMEDIATE RESPONSE.  FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE DELIVERY OF THIS COMMUNICATION SHALL CONSTITUTE A DEEMED APPROVAL BY THE ADDRESSEE OF THE MATTER DESCRIBED ABOVE.”, (d) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (e) shall include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication (“Lender Reply Period”), such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.  With respect to decisions requiring the approval of the Requisite Lenders, Administrative Agent shall timely submit any required written notices to all Lenders and upon receiving the required approval or consent shall follow the course of action or determination recommended by Administrative Agent or such other course of action recommended by the Requisite Lenders, and each non-responding Lender shall be deemed to have concurred with such recommended course of action.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any matter requiring all Lenders’ approval or consent shall not be deemed given by any Lender’s failure to respond within any such Lender’s Reply Period.
Section 12.6.    Notice of Events of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”, but nothing herein contained shall impose upon any Lender an obligation to determine whether there has been or is a Default or Event of Default.  Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.
Section 12.7.    Administrative Agent’s Reliance.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties in any such collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such agent or attorney in fact as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.

Section 12.8.    Indemnification of Administrative Agent.
Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent but not as a “Lender”) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent (except to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws.  Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement.  If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.
Section 12.9.    Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

Each of the Lenders expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  Each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each of the Lenders also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary.  Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties.  Each of the Lenders acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender.
Section 12.10.    Successor Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  In addition, the Administrative Agent may be removed as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents at any time by all Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) and, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower upon 30-days’ prior written notice if (a) the Administrative Agent is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in the course of performing its duties hereunder or (b) the Lender then acting in the capacity of Administrative Agent shall be a Defaulting Lender.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders (which, in the case of the removal of the Administrative Agent as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, shall be determined without regard to the Commitment of the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, 

provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent).  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Lenders’ removal of the current Administrative Agent, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no Lender has accepted such appointment, then such resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice, or, in the case of removal, at the end of such 30-day period and (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Lender directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such Lenders so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender were itself the Administrative Agent.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  After any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.
Section 12.11.    Syndication Agent.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. is the Syndication Agent and in such capacity assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders.  The title given to the Syndication Agent is solely honorific and implies no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Syndication Agent to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the Syndication Agent any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Syndication Agent to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.
Section 12.12.    Documentation Agent.
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is the Documentation Agent and in such capacity assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement 

or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders.  The title given to the Documentation Agent is solely honorific and implies no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Documentation Agent to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the Documentation Agent any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Documentation Agent to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Documentation Agent does not have any of the duties, rights or obligations of a Lender under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.
Section 12.13.    Specified Derivatives Contracts.
No Specified Derivatives Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 11.5 by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of any Loan Document other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to Specified Derivatives Contracts unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Specified Derivatives Contracts, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Specified Derivatives Provider.

(a)    EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE PARENT GUARANTOR, THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES.  ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE PARENT GUARANTOR AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE FEE LETTER OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG THE PARENT GUARANTOR, THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE. 
(b)    THE PARENT GUARANTOR, THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY  IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.

EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.  THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.
(c)    THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Section 13.6.    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (d), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of the immediately following subsection (e), or (iv) upon demand by Borrower pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 5.6, (and, subject to the last sentence of the immediately following subsection (b), any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in the immediately following subsection (d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a 

portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
(i)    Minimum Amounts.  
(A)    in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an  assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it, or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (in each case, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning Lender, as applicable, would be less than $5,000,000, then such assigning Lender shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it.
(ii)    Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)    Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof; and
(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Lender,

(iv)    Assignment and Acceptance; Notes.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $4,500 for each assignment (or $7,500 for any assignment with respect to a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.9(e)) (which fee the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive), and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.  If requested by the transferor Lender or the assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate.
(v)    No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or to any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).
(vi)    No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
(vii)    Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue 

to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.4, 13.2 and 13.10 and the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 13.12 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with the immediately following subsection (d).
(c)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any  provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (w) increase such Lender’s Commitment, (x) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (y) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (z) release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty except as contemplated by Section 4.2(b), in each case, as applicable to that portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations that are subject to the participation.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10, 5.1, 5.4 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.10(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.10(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 5.6 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.1 

or 3.10, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Regulatory Change that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.6 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.4 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.3 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e)    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.  
(f)    No Registration.  Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.
(g)    USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance.  In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act, prior to any Lender that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law
Section 13.7.    Amendments and Waivers.

(a)    Generally.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (i) any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or in any Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, (ii) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be amended, (iii) the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or other Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document may be waived, and (iv) the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of the Requisite Lenders), and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party which is party thereto.  Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent, shall be authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to, or further consent from, any Lender, to waive the imposition of the late fees provided in Section 2.10, up to a maximum of three (3) times per calendar year.   
(b)    Additional Consent.  In addition to the foregoing requirements, no amendment, waiver or consent shall:
(i)    increase (or reinstate) the Commitments of a Lender or subject a Lender to any additional obligations without the written consent of such Lender;
(ii)    reduce the principal of, or interest that has accrued or the rates of interest that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or other Obligations without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, only the written consent of the Requisite Lenders shall be required for the waiver of interest payable at the Post-Default Rate, retraction of the imposition of interest at the Post-Default Rate and amendment of the definition of “Post-Default Rate”;
(iii)    reduce the amount of any Fees payable to any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;
(iv)    except for waivers permitted under the last sentence of Section 13.7(a), postpone any date fixed for, or forgive, any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loans or for the payment of Fees or any other Obligations (including without limitation any extension of the Maturity Date except in accordance with Section 2.15) without the written consent of each Lender;
(v)    change the definitions of Commitment Percentage or Pro Rata Share without the written consent of each Lender;
(vi)    amend this Section or amend the definitions of the terms used in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section without the written consent of each Lender;
(vii)    modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders” or modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or 

waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof without the written consent of each Lender;
(viii)    release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty except as contemplated by Section 4.2(b) or Section 10.4 without the written consent of each Lender;
(ix)    waive a Default or Event of Default under Section 11.1(a) without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby; 
(x)    amend, or waive the Borrower’s compliance with, Section 2.16 without the written consent of each Lender; or
(xi)    amend Section 3.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender.
(c)    Consent of Specified Derivatives Provider and Defaulting Lender. Any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any Loan Document that (i) diminishes the rights of a Specified Derivatives Provider in a manner or to an extent dissimilar to that affecting the Lenders or (ii) increases the liabilities or obligations of a Specified Derivatives Provider shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the consent of the Lender that is (or having an Affiliate that is) such Specified Derivatives Provider.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitments of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reinstated or extended without the written consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the written consent of such Defaulting Lender.
(d)    Amendment of Administrative Agent’s Duties, Etc.  No amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein.  No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.  Any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or other action by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

(e)    Technical Amendments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.7, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in any provision of this Agreement or an inconsistency between provisions of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision or provisions to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as to do so would not adversely affect the interests of the Lenders.  Any such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any of other party to this Agreement.
Section 13.8.    Nonliability of Administrative Agent and Lenders.
The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.
Section 13.9.    Confidentiality.
The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below) but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ other respective Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or proposed assignee, Participant or other transferee in connection with a potential transfer of any Commitment or participation therein as permitted hereunder, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations; (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings, or as otherwise required by Applicable Law; (d) to the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information); (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any Loan Document (or any Specified Derivatives Contract) or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document (or any Specified Derivatives Contract) or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section actually known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to be a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent. any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower; (g) to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any nationally recognized rating agency or regulatory or similar authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or purporting to have jurisdiction over it; (h) to 

bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; (i) to any other party hereto; and (j) with the consent of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose any such confidential information, without notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, to Governmental Authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or in accordance with the regulatory compliance policy of the Administrative Agent or such Lender.  As used in this Section, the term “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or Affiliate relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate, provided that, in the case of any such information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
Section 13.10.    Indemnification.
(a)    The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnified Party”) against, and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, and shall pay or reimburse any such Indemnified Party for, any and all losses, claims (including without limitation, Environmental Claims), damages, liabilities and related expenses (including without limitation, the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnified Party (which counsel may be employees of any Indemnified Party)), incurred by any Indemnified Party or asserted against any Indemnified Party by any Person (including the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary) other than such Indemnified Party and its Related Parties, arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary, (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (an “Indemnity Proceeding”) relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary, and regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto, or (v) any claim (including without limitation, any Environmental Claims), investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) and the prosecution and defense thereof, arising out of or in any way connected with the Loans, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including without limitation, reasonable 

attorneys and consultant’s fees; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.
(b)    If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.
(c)    The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any of the other obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.
References in this Section 13.10 to “Lender” or “Lenders” shall be deemed to include such Persons (and their Affiliates) in their capacity as Specified Derivatives Providers.
Section 13.11.    Termination; Survival.
At such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) none of the Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and (c) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall terminate.  The indemnities to which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.10, 5.1, 5.4, 12.8, 13.2 and 13.10 and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of Section 13.5, shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.
Section 13.12.    Severability of Provisions.
If any provision under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain in full force as thought the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been part of the Loan Documents.
Section 13.13.    GOVERNING LAW.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart.  All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of , each of the parties hereto.  
Section 13.15.    Obligations with Respect to Loan Parties.
The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of certain actions by the other Loan Parties and Subsidiaries as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have that the Borrower does not control such Loan Parties or Subsidiaries.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that:  (i)(A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by Administrative Agent and Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower each other Loan Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) each of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, and the other Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii)(A) the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party, or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any Arranger has any obligation to the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party, or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender, nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party, or any of their respective Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, and the other Loan Parties hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
