5.17.Intellectual Property. Each Loan Party owns, or is licensed or otherwise has the right to use, all Intellectual Property necessary to conduct its business as currently conducted except for such Intellectual Property the failure of which to own or have a license or other right to use would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

None of the Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) be responsible in any manner to the Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Holder or any Loan Party or Affiliate of Holders or of any Loan Party, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of any Holder or any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its Obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to the Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Holder or any Loan Party or Affiliate of any Loan Party.

9.4.Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as the Agent at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Lender. If the Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Lender shall,

43



with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor agent for the Lender. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Lender after consulting with the Lender and (so long as no Event of Default exists) the Borrower, a successor agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring the Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring the Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lender shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time as the Lender shall appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

9.5.Collateral Matters. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Agent under any Collateral Document (i) when all Obligations have been Paid in Full; (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder (it being agreed and understood that the Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of an officer of the Borrower as to the sale or other disposition of property being made in compliance with this Agreement); or (iii) subject to Section 10.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lender. Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lender will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.5. The Agent shall have the right, in accordance with the Collateral Documents, to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Collateral for cash, credit or any combination thereof, and the Agent may purchase any Collateral at public or, if permitted by law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase price, may credit bid and setoff the amount of such price against the Obligations.

Section 10.
Miscellaneous.

10.1.Waiver; Amendments. No delay on the part of the Agent or the Lender in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents (or any subordination and intercreditor agreement or other subordination provisions relating to any other Debt) shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and approved by the Agent and the Lender, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No provision of Section 9 or other provision of this Agreement affecting the Agent in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Agent.

Notices sent by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been given when sent; notices sent to the Borrower by mail shall be deemed to have been given three Business Days after the date when sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid; and notices sent by hand delivery or overnight courier service shall be deemed to have been given when received.

10.3.Costs; Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and the Lender (including Legal Costs) in connection with the administration (including perfection and protection of Collateral subsequent to the Closing Date) of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all other documents provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith (including any proposed or actual amendment, supplement or waiver to any Loan Document), and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Legal Costs) incurred by the Agent and the Lender in connection with the collection of the Obligations and enforcement of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any such other documents. In addition, the parties agree that in the event that the Agent or Lender determines pursuant to any audit of the books and records of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries conducted pursuant to Section 6.2 that the aggregate amount paid to the Lender hereunder during any period covered by such audit was less than the aggregate amount that was in fact due and payable in respect of such period and the amount of such shortfall exceeds five percent (5%) of the amount that was due and payable, then all Audit Costs in respect of such audit shall be borne by the Borrower and reimbursed to the Agent or Lender, as applicable, and in all other cases, such Audit Costs shall be borne by the Agent or Lender conducting such audit. All Obligations provided for in this Section 10.3 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes and termination of this Agreement.

10.4.Indemnification by the Borrower. In consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Agent and the Lender and the agreement to extend the Commitments provided hereunder, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, exonerate and hold the Agent, the Lender and each of the officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, controlling persons, advisors and agents of the Agent and the Lender (each a “Lender Party”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities (including, without limitation, strict liabilities), obligations, damages, penalties, judgments, fines, disbursements, expenses and costs, including Legal Costs (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Lender Parties or asserted against the Lender Party by any Person (including in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by any Holder, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Lender Party) as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to the execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the use of proceeds of the Loans, or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Loan Party, except to the extent any such Indemnified Liabilities result from the applicable Lender Party’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct, or material breach of any Loan Document, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable determination. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the

45



Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under Applicable Law. All Obligations provided for in this Section 10.4 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, any foreclosure under, or any modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents and termination of this Agreement.

10.5.Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Neither the Agent nor the Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Agent or the Lender, or the Agent or the Lender enforces its Liens or exercises its rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or the Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party in connection with any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation hereunder or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred and (b) the Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its ratable share of the total amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent to the extent paid to such Lender.

10.6.Nonliability of the Lender. The relationship between the Borrower on the one hand and the Lender and the Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Agent nor the Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibility to the Holders, the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Neither the Agent nor the Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Holders, the Borrower or any other Loan Party to review or inform (including payment of all outstanding principal), the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s or any other Loan Party’s business or operations. Execution of this Agreement by the Borrower constitutes a full, complete and irrevocable release of any and all claims which the Borrower may have at law or in equity in respect of all prior discussions and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Neither the Borrower, the Agent nor the Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower, Agent and Lender each hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages or liabilities.

10.7.Confidentiality.

46



any court decree, subpoena or legal or administrative order or process; (d) as, on the advice of the Agent’s or such Lender’s counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any litigation to which the Agent or such Lender is a party; (f) to any nationally recognized rating agency or investor of the Lender that requires access to information about the Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued or investment decisions with respect to such Lender; (g) that ceases to be confidential through no fault of the Agent or the Lender; or (h) to a Person that is an investor or prospective investor in the Agent or any of its Affiliates.

10.8.Captions. Captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

10.9.Nature of Remedies. All Obligations of the Borrower and rights of the Agent and the Lender expressed herein or in any other Loan Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by Applicable Law. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or the Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

10.10.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement.

10.11.Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.
