then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, at the election of the Administrative Agent, either (x) the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders by electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, all Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the next Interest Payment Date and, upon any such conversion, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, or (y) the Administrative Agent and Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Eurodollar Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) (any such proposed rate, a “Eurodollar Successor Rate”), together with any proposed Eurodollar Successor Rate Conforming Changes (as defined below) and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment.  
If no Eurodollar Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (y) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender.  Upon receipt of such notice, (i) all Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the next Interest Payment Date and (ii) the Eurodollar Rate component shall cease to be utilized in determining the Base Rate.  As used herein, “Eurodollar Successor Rate Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Eurodollar Successor Rate, any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the adoption of such Eurodollar Successor Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no market practice for the administration of such Eurodollar Successor Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent determines in consultation with Borrower).

SECTION 2.15.      Increased Costs.  
(a)    If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit , liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate);
(ii)    impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or participation therein; or
(iii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making or maintaining any Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then Borrower will pay, upon written request of such Lender or such other Recipient, to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    If any Lender, acting reasonably, determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement 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 Change in Law (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 Borrower will pay, upon written request of such Lender, to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction.
(c)    A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.15(a) or Section 2.15(b) shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16.      Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Loan other than on an Interest Payment Date (including as a result of an Event of Default 

27

but excluding as a result of any repayment pursuant to Section 2.10 except Section 2.10(a)), (b) the failure to repay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10 and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (c) the assignment of any Loan other than on an Interest Payment Date as a result of a request by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.  Without duplication of any amounts otherwise payable hereunder, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the next Interest Payment Date, over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17.       Taxes.  
(a)    Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(b)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any 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 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 2.17) 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 Borrower.  Borrower 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, Other Taxes.
(d)    Indemnification by Borrower.  Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) 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 delivered to 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.

28

(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) 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 Section 2.17(e).
(f)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, Borrower 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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable 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 Section 2.17(g)(ii)(A), Section 2.17(g)(ii)(B) and Section 2.17(g)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W‐9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

29

(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable;
(1)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E 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 W-8BEN-E 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;
(2)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W‐8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or
(4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W‐8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W‐8ECI, IRS Form W‐8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, 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 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 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

30

(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 Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for 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 Section 2.17(g)(ii)(D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date.
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, provide such successor form, or promptly notify 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 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), 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 2.17 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 Section 2.17(h) (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 Section 2.17(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.17(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 2.17(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

31

SECTION 2.18.      Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.  
(a)    Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, Section 2.16 or Section 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices as the Administrative Agent may specify in writing to Borrower, except that payments pursuant to Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and Section 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  Aggregate payments of principal and interest shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans to which such payments relate, in each case proportionately to each Lender’s respective pro rata shares.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.
(b)    Any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent or any other amounts recovered by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party (i) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by Borrower) or (B) a mandatory repayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, toward the payment of any principal and/or interest under the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, proportion and priority as the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion shall determine.  During the existence of an Event of Default, solely to the extent that an error has occurred in the application thereof or to the extent permitted under Section 9.16, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations.
(c)    [Reserved]
(d)    If, except as expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18(d) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant.  Borrower consents to the foregoing and agree, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation 

32

pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower’s rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.
(e)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the 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 2.19.      Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.  
(a)    If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or Section 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or (ii) Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then Borrower may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.15 or Section 2.17) and obligations under the Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

33

After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent and such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 9.12.

SECTION 8.04.      No Joint Venture, Etc.
(a)    Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and not investments in a business enterprise or securities.  Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder.  Each Lender shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning Borrower and their Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.
(b)    The Lenders are not partners or co‐venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.05.      Agent as Representative, Etc.
(a)    In its capacity, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code.  Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents.  Each Lender agrees that no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents.  In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.  The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) as described 

56

in Section 9.02(c); (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders.  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.
(b)    In case of the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower or any other Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 2.11 and Section 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 8.05(b), any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 2.11 and Section 9.03.
(c)    The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, shall have the right to credit bid and purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted by the Administrative Agent under the provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC, at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 thereof, or a sale under a plan of reorganization, or at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, it will not take any enforcement action, accelerate obligations under any Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under applicable law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of the Collateral.
(d)    No Secured Party that is party to a Swap Agreement that obtains the benefits of Section 2.18(b) or any Collateral with respect to the related Swap Obligations, by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Collateral 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 the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) 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 VIII to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been 

57

made with respect to, Swap Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Swap Agreements together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Secured Party.

(b)    Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.  The Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its or their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it or them hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it or them; provided, that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.  Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided, that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

59

(c)    The Platform.  THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY MATERIALS OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF BORROWER OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM ANY MATERIALS OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF BORROWER.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY MATERIALS OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF BORROWER OR THE PLATFORM.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of any materials or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower through the internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).
(d)    Any party hereto may change its address or other information for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.  All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

SECTION 9.02.      Waivers; Amendments.  
(a)    No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(b)    Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any provision hereof or thereof, may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the Administrative Agent; provided that, without the prior written consent of the Lenders holding at least 90% of the aggregate amount of the Loans outstanding, no such agreement shall:

60

(i)    reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon (excluding any waiver of Default Interest), or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
(ii)    postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan (other than any reduction of the amount of, or any extension of the payment date for, the mandatory repayments required under Section 2.10, in each case which shall only require the approval of the Required Lenders), or any interest or any fees payable hereunder (excluding any waiver of Default Interest), or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
(iii)    change any provision of Section 2.18(a) or any other provision of any Loan Document in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender;
(iv)    change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;
(v)    except upon repayment in full of the Loans, or as otherwise expressly set forth herein, release Borrower or any other Loan Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender; or
(vi)    except as provided in Section 9.02(c) or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender;
provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
(c)    The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (i) upon payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations) or (ii) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to Article VII.  Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.
(d)    If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided, that concurrently with such replacement, (i) another Person reasonably satisfactory to Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of 

61

Section 9.04(b), and (ii) Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination (or, if such date of termination is not an Interest Payment Date, through and including the next such Interest Payment Date), including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Section 2.15 and Section 2.17, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to cure any obvious error or error or omission of a technical and immaterial nature.

SECTION 9.03.      Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.  
(a)    Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (including all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, due diligence expenses, third party real property diligence, and travel expenses) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, and delivery and administration (where, in the case of administration, it is so expressly provided otherwise herein) of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable and documented out‐of‐pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section 9.03 or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.
(b)    Subject to the terms of Section 9.14, Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (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 Borrower, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Borrower or any Property, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (y) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (z) any dispute solely among Indemnitees which does not 

62

arise out of any act or omission of Borrower or any of their Affiliates (other than any proceeding against the Administrative Agent solely in its capacity as such).  This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.
(c)    To the extent that Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under Section 9.03(a) or Section 9.03(b), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that the failure of Borrower to pay any such amount shall not relieve Borrower of any default in the payment thereof or the obligation of Borrower to reimburse each Lender for all amounts paid by such Lender in connection with such failure); provided, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.
(d)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower and their Related Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the internet), or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(e)    To the extent not paid on the Effective Date, all amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable not later than ten days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04.      Successors and Assigns.  
(a)    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 (i)  Borrower shall not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04.  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in Section 9.04(c)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

63

(b)    Required Consents.
(i)    Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 9.04(b)(ii), any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld.
(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A)    no assignments shall be made to a natural person;
(B)    except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans, the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that in the case of contemporaneous assignments to any Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, such amounts shall be aggregated for purposes of this Section 9.04(b)(ii)(C);
(C)    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; 
(D)    for so long as no Event of Default is continuing, no Assignment shall be made to any Person that is a competitor or affiliate of a competitor of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Guarantor; and
(E)    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 $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), such fee to be paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such Lenders. 
(iii)     No Lender shall sell any portion of its Loan without first offering the same in writing to JPP, LLC and JPP II, LLC.  If JPP, LLC and/or JPP II, LLC shall accept such offer within five Business Days of its receipt thereof, JPP, LLC and/or JPP II, LLC shall have the right to purchase such Loan or portion thereof for an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance thereof, plus all accrued unpaid interest, within five Business Days following such acceptance.  If JPP, LLC and/or JPP II, LLC shall fail to accept such offer within five Business Days following their receipt of such written offer, the Lender delivering such offer shall have the right to effectuate the sale of its Loan (or portion thereof) to any Person, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.04(b).
(iv)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(v), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such 

64

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 Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and Section 9.03); provided, that any such assigning Lenders shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 9.12.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.04(c).
(v)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 principal amount (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 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 and the other Loan Documents.  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and any Lender (as to its own holdings only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(vi)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, delivery of any tax deliverables required under Section 2.17, the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 9.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided, that if either the assigning Lender or the Eligible Assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.18(e) or Section 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 9.04(b)(vi).
(c)    Any Lender may, without the consent of Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than a natural person or a Loan Party) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders 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 any amendment, modification or 

65

waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.17(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.04(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 and Section 2.19 as if it were an assignee under Section 9.04(b); and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or Section 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(d) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of 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 the Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan 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.

(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loans at a rate which could subject any Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate.  If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the rate of interest charged hereunder, including Default Interest, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by the applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loans does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loans for so long as any Loans are outstanding.

SECTION 9.17.      No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Lenders and their Affiliates 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 Borrower or any of their Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to Borrower or any Affiliate thereof with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except, in the case of a Lender, those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrower and their Affiliates, and no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Borrower or any Affiliates thereof.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each of the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.18.      Independent Effect of Covenants.  Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that each covenant contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be given independent effect.  Accordingly, Borrower shall not engage in any transaction or other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if before or after giving effect to such transaction or act, Borrower shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 9.19.      Inconsistencies with Other Documents.  In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall control; provided, that any provision of any Collateral Document which imposes additional burdens on Borrower or further restricts the rights of Borrower or gives the Administrative Agent or Lenders additional 

74

rights shall not be deemed to be in conflict or inconsistent with this Agreement and shall be given full force and effect.

SECTION 9.20.      Reserved.  

SECTION 9.21.      Publicity.  All news releases, publicity or advertising by any Borrower or its Affiliates through any media which refers to the Loan, the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  The Borrowers authorize the Administrative Agent and each Lender to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, and such materials may describe the Loans in general terms or in detail and the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s participation therein in the Loans; provided, that absent an Event of Default, the prior written consent of the Borrowers shall be required with respect thereto.  

SECTION 9.22.      Mortgage Loan.  
(a)    Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure any “Event of Default” under and as defined in the Mortgage Loan Agreement, regardless of whether the same results from the breach of a monetary or non-monetary covenant; and the costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in doing so, including reasonable attorneys' fees, with interest thereon at the rate set forth in Section 2.12(b), shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Loans, shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement and other Loan Documents, and shall be due and payable to Administrative Agent within five Business Days following written demand therefor.
(b)    JPP, LLC and/or JPP II, LLC, for so long as either or both shall be a Lender hereunder, shall have the right without notice or demand on Borrower or Mortgage Borrower to purchase all or any portion of the Mortgage Loan or any interest therein without notice to or consent of Borrower, in which event such Lender shall have and may exercise all rights of Mortgage Lender thereunder.  Borrower hereby expressly agrees that any claims that Mortgage Borrower may have against Mortgage Lender relating to or arising out of the Mortgage Loan shall be the personal obligation of the assigning Mortgage Lender and in no event shall Mortgage Borrower be entitled to bring or pursue such claims against Lender or any Affiliate of Lender or any other Person as the successor holder the Mortgage Loan or any interest therein.
(c)    If, on account of the subordination of the Loan to the Mortgage Loan, any Lender is required to remit to Mortgage Lender any amount theretofore paid to such Lender hereunder, then such amount shall continue to be owing pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as part of the Indebtedness, notwithstanding the prior receipt of such payment by Lender.  
(d)    Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time to discuss matters regarding the Property, the Collateral, the Mortgage Loan, the Loan or any other matter directly with Mortgage Lender or its consultants, agents or representatives, without notice to or permission from Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or any of their affiliates.  Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to disclose such discussions or the contents thereof with Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or any of their affiliates.
(e)    If any action, proposed action or other decision is consented to or approved by Mortgage Lender, such consent or approval shall not be binding or controlling on Administrative 

75

Agent or any Lender.  Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the risks of Mortgage Lender in making the Mortgage Loan are different from the risks of Lender in making the Loan, (ii) in determining whether to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval, Mortgage Lender and Lender may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (iii) Lender has an absolute independent right to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval based on its own point of view, but subject to the standards of consent applicable to Lender in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In addition, the denial by Lender of a requested consent or approval shall not result in any liability or other obligation of Lender, if such denial results directly or indirectly in a default under the Mortgage Loan and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Lender arising from any such denial.
(f)    Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to (a) pay all principal, interest and other sums required to be paid by Mortgage Borrower under and pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents unless such performance or observance shall be waived in writing by Mortgage Lender; (b) diligently perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents on the part of Mortgage Borrower to be performed and observed (including, without limitation, with respect to funding reserves and escrows), notwithstanding repayment in full of the Mortgage Loan or any termination of the Mortgage Loan Agreement or other Mortgage Loan Documents; (c) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice of breach or default or any other written notice by Mortgage Lender to Mortgage Borrower or Borrower; (d) deliver a correct and complete copy of each notice, demand, request and correspondence (including electronically transmitted items) that, in each case, are given or received by Mortgage Borrower or Borrower to or from the Mortgage Lender or its administrative agent, and (e) not enter into any material amendment or modification of any Mortgage Loan Document, or any additional Mortgage Loan Documents, without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld
(g)    Borrower shall (or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to), from time to time, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from Mortgage Lender such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Mortgage Borrower with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent.  In the event or to the extent that Mortgage Lender fails to deliver such estoppel, then Borrower shall not be in breach of this provision so long as Borrower furnishes to Administrative Agent an estoppel executed by Borrower and Mortgage Borrower expressly representing to Administrative Agent (i) to the knowledge of Borrower and Mortgage Borrower, the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (ii) whether Mortgage Lender, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Guarantor has sent or received a default notice or Event of Default notice (and if so, attaching a copy of each such notice).
(h)    Without the express prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not cause, suffer or permit Mortgage Borrower to, enter into any deed-in-lieu or consensual foreclosure with or for the benefit of Mortgage Lender or any of its affiliates.  Without the express prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not cause, suffer or permit Mortgage Borrower to, enter into any consensual sale or other transaction in connection with the Mortgage Loan which could diminish, modify, terminate, impair or otherwise adversely affect the interests of Administrative Agent or Borrower, the Collateral or any portion thereof or any interest therein or of Mortgage Borrower in the Property or portion thereof or any interest therein.
(i)    In the event that the Mortgage Loan shall be repaid in full, at the request of Administrative Agent, Borrower shall, and shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, reasonably cooperate 

76

with Administrative Agent to convert the Loan to a mortgage loan substantially in the form of the Mortgage Loan, such that the Loans hereunder shall be secured by first mortgages on the Properties.  In connection with any such conversion, Borrower shall cause the organizational documents of Borrower and Mortgage Borrower to be amended, to the extent necessary to effectuate such conversion, and to deliver such opinions, certificates, documents, mortgages, estoppels, assignments and title insurance policies so as to, as closely as practicable, replicate the structure of the Mortgage Loan made to Mortgage Borrower as of the Effective Date (but taking into account any releases of Properties or repayments of the Loans that has theretofore occurred).  Borrower shall pay all of Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs of such conversion.  In the event the Mortgage Loan is repaid in full, Borrower shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to incur any Indebtedness secured by any assets of Mortgage Borrower, including the Properties, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
(j)    If JPP, LLC and/or JPP II, LLC shall purchase the Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time, in their sole discretion, to allocate and reallocate any portion of the balance of the Loans hereunder to the Mortgage Loan, and Borrower shall, and shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, execute new Notes hereunder and new notes under the Mortgage Loan Agreement to evidence any such allocation or reallocation; provided, however, that no such reallocation shall result in an increase of the weighted average interest rate of the then-applicable interest rate with respect to the Notes and the then-applicable interest rate with respect to the notes evidencing the Mortgage Loan.  In addition, following the acquisition of the Mortgage Loan by JPP, LLC and/or JPP II, LLC, within five Business Days following Administrative Agent’s request therefor, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to enter into an amendment of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to which the right of Mortgage Borrower to approve any transfer of the Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Lender (or the identity of any new lender thereunder) shall be eliminated.

Schedule 1.02 – Appraised Values

As set forth in the Closing Date Officer’s Certificate   

 

Schedule 1.03 – Single Purpose Entity Requirements

Since the date of its formation and at all times on and after the Effective Date and continuing at all times until all Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations) have been paid in full:
(a)    Borrower (i) has been, is, and will be organized solely for the purpose of acquiring, and holding the direct and indirect equity interests in Mortgage Borrower, entering into and performing its obligations under the Loan Documents, refinancing the Collateral in connection with a permitted repayment of the Loans, and transacting lawful business that is incident, necessary and appropriate to accomplish the foregoing, and (ii) has not owned, does not own, and will not own any asset or property other than the Collateral and necessary incidental personal property related thereto.
(b)    Borrower has not engaged and will not engage in any business or activity other than the ownership Collateral and Borrower will conduct and operate its business as presently conducted and operated.
(c)    Borrower has not entered and will not enter into any contract or agreement with any Affiliate of such Borrower, any constituent party of such Borrower or any Affiliate of any constituent party, except upon terms and conditions that are intrinsically fair, commercially reasonable, and no less favorable to it than those that would be available on an arm’s-length basis from an unrelated third party.
(d)    Borrower has not incurred and will not voluntarily incur any Indebtedness other than (i) the Loans and (ii) other Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01.  For the avoidance of doubt, the inability of Borrower or Mortgage Borrower to pay costs and expenses (e.g. utility bills) as they come due, in each case arising from or attributable to insufficient cash flow from the Properties, or Borrower’s or Mortgage Borrower’s lack of access thereto (to the extent caused by the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s exercise of remedies or the exercise of remedies under the Mortgage Loan Documents), shall not be deemed to constitute a voluntary incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this clause (d)No Indebtedness, other than the Loans, may be secured by any portion of the Collateral.  No Exculpated Party is required to, nor prohibited from, contributing additional capital to the Borrowers for purposes of compliance with this clause (d).

A natural person who satisfies the foregoing definition other than clause (iii) shall not be disqualified as a result of clause (iii)(A) by reason of (I) being, having been or becoming an Independent Director of an Affiliate of Borrower that is not in the direct chain of ownership of a Borrower and that is required by a creditor to be a “single purpose entity”; provided that such Independent Director is, was or will be employed by a company that routinely provides professional independent directors, independent managers or independent members, or (II) being, having been or becoming a member of Borrower pursuant to an express provision in such Borrower’s operating agreement providing for the appointment of such Independent Director as a member of such Borrower upon the occurrence of any event pursuant to which the sole member of such Borrower ceases to be a member of such Borrower (including the withdrawal or dissolution of the sole member).  A natural person who satisfies the foregoing definition other than clause (iii) shall not be disqualified as a result of clause (iii)(A) or (iii)(B) by reason of being, having been or becoming an Independent Director of a “single purpose entity” affiliated with Borrower; provided that the fees or other compensation that such individual earns by serving as an Independent Director of one or more Affiliates of Borrower in any given year constitute, in the aggregate, less than five percent (5%) of such individual’s income for such year.  The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that no Independent Director of Borrower may be removed or replaced without Cause, and unless such Borrower provides the Administrative Agent with not less than three Business Days’ prior notice of (1) any proposed removal of any Independent Director, together with a statement as to the reasons for such removal, and (2) the identity of the proposed replacement Independent Director, together with a certification that such replacement satisfies the requirements set forth in the organizational documents of such Borrower relating to an Independent Director.  In addition, the organizational documents of such Borrower shall provide an express acknowledgment that Lender is an intended third-party beneficiary of the “special purpose” and “separateness” provisions of such organizational documents (it being agreed that Lender’s sole remedy in such instance is equitable relief to ensure compliance herewith).  As used in this paragraph, the term “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or activities of such Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and the terms “controlled” and “controlling” shall have correlative meanings.  As used in this paragraph, the term “single purpose entity” shall mean a Person whose organizational documents contain, and who covenants that such Person shall comply or cause compliance with, provisions substantially similar to those set forth in this Schedule 1.03.  “Cause” shall mean, with respect to an Independent Director, (i) any acts or omissions by such Independent Director that constitute systematic, persistent or willful disregard of such Independent Director’s duties, or (ii) such Independent Director has been indicted or convicted for any crime or crimes of moral turpitude or dishonesty or for any violation of any legal requirements.

The organizational documents of such Borrower shall provide that such Borrower will not (and such Borrower agrees that it will not), without the unanimous consent of its board of directors or managers, including the consent of the Independent Director, (i) file or consent to the filing of any petition, either voluntary or involuntary, to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization statute, (ii) seek or consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator or any similar official for such Borrower or a substantial portion of its assets or properties, (iii) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iv) admit in writing in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding Borrower’s inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or (vi) declare or effectuate a moratorium on the payment of any obligations.  In addition, the organizational documents of such Borrower shall provide that, when voting with respect to any of the matters set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this paragraph (p), the Independent Directors shall consider only the interests of such Borrower, including its creditors.
(q)    The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that, as long as any portion of the Loans remains outstanding, upon the occurrence of any event that causes the sole member of such Borrower (“Sole Member”) to cease to be a member of such Borrower (other than (i) upon an assignment by Sole Member of all of its limited liability company interests in such Borrower and the admission of the transferee, if permitted pursuant to the organizational documents of such Borrower and the Loan Documents, or (ii) the resignation of the Sole Member and the admission of an additional member of such Borrower, if permitted pursuant to the organizational documents of such Borrower and the Loan Documents), each of the persons acting as an Independent Director of such Borrower shall, without any action of any Person and simultaneously with Sole Member ceasing to be a member of such Borrower, automatically be admitted as a member of such Borrower (a “Special Member”) and shall preserve and continue the existence of such Borrower without dissolution.  The organizational documents of such Borrower shall further provide that for so long as any portion of the Loans is outstanding, no Special Member may resign or transfer its rights as a Special Member unless (A) a successor Special Member has been admitted to such Borrower as a Special Member, and (B) such successor Special Member has also accepted its appointment as an Independent Director of such Borrower.
(r)    The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that, as long as any portion of the Loans remains outstanding, except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, (i) the Sole Member may not resign, and (ii) no additional member shall be admitted to such Borrower.
(s)    The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that, as long as any portion of the Loans remains outstanding: (i) such Borrower shall be dissolved, and its affairs shall be wound up, only upon the first to occur of the following: (A) the termination of the legal existence of the last remaining member of such Borrower or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of the last remaining member of such Borrower in such Borrower unless the business of such Borrower is continued in a manner permitted by its operating agreement or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Act”), or (B) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act; (ii) upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last remaining member of such Borrower to cease to be a member of such Borrower or that causes Sole Member to cease to be a member of such Borrower (other than (A) upon an assignment by Sole Member of all of its limited liability company interests in such Borrower and the admission of the transferee, if permitted pursuant to the organizational documents of such Borrower and 

 

the Loan Documents, or (B) the resignation of the Sole Member and the admission of an additional member of such Borrower, if permitted pursuant to the organizational documents of such Borrower and the Loan Documents), to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative of such last remaining member shall be authorized to, and shall, within ninety days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such member in such Borrower, agree in writing (1) to continue the existence of such Borrower, and (2) to the admission of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute member of such Borrower, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such member in such Borrower; (iii) the bankruptcy of Sole Member or a Special Member shall not cause such Sole Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of Borrower and upon the occurrence of such event, the business of such Borrower shall continue without dissolution; (iv) in the event of the dissolution of Borrower, such Borrower shall conduct only such activities as are necessary to wind up its affairs (including the sale of its assets and properties in an orderly manner), and its assets and properties shall be applied in the manner, and in the order of priority, set forth in Section 18-804 of the Act; and (v) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of Sole Member and Special Members shall irrevocably waive any right or power that they might have to cause Borrower or any of its assets or properties to be partitioned, to cause the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of the assets or properties of such Borrower, to compel any sale of all or any portion of the assets or properties of such Borrower pursuant to any applicable law or to file a complaint or to institute any proceeding at law or in equity to cause the dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination of such Borrower.
(t)    [reserved]
(u)    [reserved]
(v)    Borrower has paid and shall pay its own liabilities and expenses, including the salaries of its own employees (if any) from its own funds, and has maintained and shall maintain a sufficient number of employees (if any) in light of its contemplated business operations.
(w)    Borrower has compensated and shall compensate each of its consultants and agents from its funds for services provided to it.  Borrower has paid and shall pay from its assets all obligations of any kind incurred.

Without the unanimous consent of all of its directors or managers (including each Independent Director), as applicable, will not (A) file a bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization petition or otherwise institute insolvency proceedings or otherwise seek any relief under any laws relating to the relief from debts or the protection of debtors generally, (B) seek or consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator, custodian or any similar official for such Borrower or for all or any portion of such Borrower’s assets or properties or (C) make any assignment for the benefit of such Borrower’s creditors.  
(y)    Borrower has maintained and will maintain an arm’s-length relationship with its Affiliates.
(z)    Borrower has allocated and will allocate fairly and reasonably any overhead expenses that are shared with any Affiliate, including shared office space.

 

(aa)    Except in connection with the Loans, Borrower has not pledged or will pledge its assets or properties for the benefit of, or to secure the obligations of, any other Person.
(bb)    Borrower has not had, has or will have any obligation to indemnify its directors, managers, officers, members or Special Members, as the case may be, or, if applicable, has such an obligation that is fully subordinated to the Loans and that will not constitute a claim against such Borrower if cash flow in excess of the amount required to pay the Obligations is insufficient to pay such obligation.
