Section 1.3 Accounting Terms and Principles. (a) GAAP. All accounting determinations required to be made pursuant hereto shall, unless expressly otherwise provided herein, be made in accordance with GAAP. No change in the accounting principles used in the preparation of any Financial Statement hereafter adopted by Borrower shall be given effect if such change would affect a calculation that measures compliance with any provision of Article V or VIII unless the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agree to modify such provisions to reflect such changes in GAAP and, unless such provisions are modified, all Financial Statements, Compliance Certificates and similar documents provided hereunder shall be provided together with a reconciliation between the calculations and amounts set forth therein before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. (b) Pro Forma. All components of financial calculations made to determine compliance with Article V shall be adjusted on a Pro Forma Basis to include or exclude, as the case may be, without duplication, such components of such calculations attributable to any Pro Forma Transaction consummated after the first day of the applicable period of determination and prior to the end of such period, as determined in good faith by the Borrower based on assumptions expressed therein and that were reasonable based on the information available to the Borrower at the time of preparation of the Compliance Certificate setting forth such calculations. Section 1.4 Payments. The Administrative Agent may set up reasonable standards and procedures to determine or redetermine the equivalent in Dollars of any amount expressed in any currency other than Dollars and otherwise may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination made by any Loan Party. Any such determination or redetermination by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. No determination or redetermination by any Secured Party or Loan Party and no other currency conversion shall change or release any obligation of any Loan Party or of any Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent and its Related Persons) under any Loan Document, each of which agrees to pay separately for any shortfall remaining after any conversion and payment of the amount as converted. The Administrative Agent may round up or down, and may set up appropriate mechanisms to round up or down, any amount hereunder to nearest higher or lower amounts and may determine reasonable de minimis payment thresholds. Section 1.5 Interpretation. (a) Certain Terms. Except as set forth in any Loan Document, all accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP (except for the term "property", which shall be interpreted as broadly as possible, including, in any case, cash, Securities, other assets, rights under Contractual Obligations and Permits and any right or interest in any property). The terms "herein", "hereof" and similar terms 29 refer to this Agreement as a whole. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date in any Loan Document, the term "from" means "from and including" and the words "to" and "until" each mean "to but excluding" and the word "through" means "to and including." In any other case, the term "including" when used in any Loan Document means "including without limitation." The term "documents" means all writings, however evidenced and whether in physical or electronic form, including all documents, instruments, agreements, notices, demands, certificates, forms, financial statements, opinions and reports. The term "incur" means incur, create, make, issue, assume or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable in respect of or responsible for, in each case whether directly or indirectly, and the terms "incurrence" and "incurred" and similar derivatives shall have correlative meanings. (b) Certain References. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, references (i) in this Agreement to an Exhibit, Schedule, Article, Section or clause refer to the appropriate Exhibit or Schedule to, or Article, Section or clause in, this Agreement and (ii) in any Loan Document, to (A) any agreement shall include, without limitation, all exhibits, schedules, appendixes and annexes to such agreement and, unless the prior consent of any Secured Party or the Loan Parties required therefor is not obtained, any modification, amendment, restatement or amendment and restatement to any term of such agreement, (B) any statute shall be to such statute as modified from time to time and to any successor legislation thereto, in each case as in effect at the time any such reference is operative and (C) any time of day shall be a reference to New York time. Titles of articles, sections, clauses, exhibits, schedules and annexes contained in any Loan Document are without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, the meaning of any term defined (including by reference) in any Loan Document shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such term. ARTICLE II THE FACILITIES Section 2.1 The Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Lender, severally but not jointly, agrees to make a loan (each a "Loan") in Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing Date, in an amount not to exceed such Lender's Commitment. Amounts of Loans repaid may not be reborrowed. The aggregate amount of the Commitments on the Closing Date equals $30,000,000. Section 2.2 Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Lender to make any payment required under any Loan Document shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations under any Loan Document, but no other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any payment required under any Loan Document. Section 2.3 Intentionally Omitted. Section 2.4 Intentionally Omitted. Section 2.5 Termination of the Commitments. All outstanding Commitments shall terminate on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Borrowing occurring on such date). Section 2.6 Repayment of Loans. The Borrower promises to repay the entire unpaid principal amount of the Loans advanced to the Borrower on the Scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date. 30 Section 2.7 Optional Prepayments. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Loan in whole or in part at any time (together with any breakage costs that may be owing pursuant to Section 2.16(a) after giving effect to such prepayment and any prepayment fee with respect to the Loan referred to below) upon at least two (2) Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent. If Borrower prepays all or any portion of the Loan pursuant to this Section 2.7 on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, Borrower shall also pay to the Lenders, a prepayment fee in an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by the aggregate principal amount of the Loan so prepaid. As used herein, the term "Applicable Percentage" shall mean (x) 2%, in the case of a prepayment on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and (y) 1% in the case of a prepayment after the first anniversary of the Closing Date but on or prior to the fourth anniversary thereof. The Loan Parties agree that such prepayment fees are a reasonable calculation of Lenders' lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticalities of determining actual damages resulting from an early prepayment of the Loans. Section 2.8 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Excess Cash Flow. Subject to Section 2.8(h) hereof, the Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to the Lenders on the date on which Financial Statements are delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(c) for any Fiscal Year ending after the Closing Date (commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2008) an amount equal to 50% of the Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year. (b) Debt Issuances. Subject to Section 2.8(h) hereof, upon receipt on or after the Closing Date by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds arising from incurrence by any Group Member of Indebtedness (other than any such Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Agreement), the Borrower shall immediately pay or cause to be paid to the Lenders an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. (c) Extraordinary Receipts. Subject to Section 2.8(h) hereof, upon receipt on or after the Closing Date by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries of any Extraordinary Receipts, the Borrower shall immediately pay or cause to be paid to the Lenders an amount equal to the amount of such Extraordinary Receipts. (d) Asset Sales, Property Loss Events. Subject to Section 2.8(h) hereof, upon receipt on or after the Closing Date by any Loan Party or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds arising from (i) any Sale by any Group Member of any of its property (other than Sales of its own Stock and Sales of property permitted hereunder in reliance upon Section 8.4) or (ii) any Property Loss Event with respect to any property of any Group Member to the extent resulting in the aggregate with all other such Property Loss Events in the receipt by any of them of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $250,000, the Borrower shall immediately pay or cause to be paid to the Lenders an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, however, that, upon any such receipt, as long as no Event of Default shall be continuing, any Group Member may make Permitted Reinvestments with such Net Cash Proceeds and the Borrower shall not be required to make or cause such payment to the extent (x) such Net Cash Proceeds are intended to be used to make Permitted Reinvestments and (y) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date for such Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to the Lenders an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount corresponding to such Reinvestment Prepayment Date and such Net Cash Proceeds. (e) [Intentionally Omitted] 31 (f) Application of Payments. Any payments made to the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.12(b). (g) No Premium. Except with respect to prepayments pursuant to Section 2.8(b) hereof, no prepayment premium or fee of any kind shall be payable with respect to prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.8. (h) First Lien Prepayment Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Borrower shall not be permitted or required to prepay any Loans under Section 2.8 of this Agreement unless (i) such prepayment is not prohibited under the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) (A) the First Lien Obligations have been paid in full and all commitments to lend money under the First Lien Loan Documents shall have terminated, or (B) such amount or a portion thereof would be paid to the "Lenders" under and pursuant to the First Lien Credit Agreement but for the fact that the "Lenders" under the First Lien Credit Agreement have waived their right to receive such prepayment or portion thereof and have consented to the making of any such prepayments hereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions of the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement and written copies of such waiver and consent have been provided to the Borrower. Section 2.9 Interest. (a) Rate. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations shall bear interest, in the case of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and, in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided in clause (c) below, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate, as in effect for the applicable Interest Period, and the Applicable Margin. (b) Payments. Interest accrued shall be payable in arrears (i) if accrued on the principal amount of any Loan, (A) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), (B) upon the payment or prepayment of the principal amount on which such interest has accrued and (C) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Loan and, if applicable, on each date during such Interest Period occurring every 3 months from the first day of such Interest Period and (ii) if accrued on any other Obligation, on demand from Administrative Agent after the time such Obligation is due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise). (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere in any Loan Document, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under Section 9.1(e) exists), all unpaid Obligations (including any Obligation that bears interest by reference to the rate applicable to any other Obligation) shall bear interest from the date of occurrence of such Event of Default at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate applicable to such Obligations from time to time, payable on demand. (d) Maximum Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.9, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the "Maximum Lawful Rate"), then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Lenders is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation 32 of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 2.9, unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that such Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.9(d), a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that any Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified in Section 2.12 and thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order. Section 2.10 [Intentionally Omitted] Section 2.11 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and its Related Persons its reasonable and customary fees and expenses in connection with any payments made pursuant to Section 2.16(a) (Breakage Costs). Section 2.12 Application of Payments. (a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments. Unless otherwise provided in this Section 2.12 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, all payments and any other amounts received by the Lenders from or for the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied to repay such Obligations as the Borrower designates. (b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Subject to the provisions of clause (c) below with respect to the application of payments during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payment made by the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.8 or any other prepayment of the Obligations required to be applied in accordance with this clause (b) shall be applied first, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, and then, any excess shall be retained by the Borrower. (c) Application of Payments During an Event of Default. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees to cause each Loan Party and each other Group Member to waive, the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments or prepayments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral and agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) above, the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the direction of the Required Lenders or (B) the termination of any Commitment or the acceleration of any Obligation pursuant to Section 9.2, shall, apply all payments in respect of any Obligation, all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account and all other proceeds of Collateral (i) first, to pay Obligations in respect of any cost or expense reimbursements, fees or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, to pay Obligations in respect of any cost or expense reimbursements, fees or indemnities then due to the Lenders, (iii) third, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans, (iv) fourth, to repay the outstanding principal amounts of the Loans, (v) fifth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations and (vi) sixth, to the Borrower. (d) Application of Payments Generally. Each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loans and each payment of interest or prepayment premium on the Loans shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. All 33 payments and prepayments of Loans shall be applied to repay Loans having earlier expiring Interest Periods prior to those having later expiring Interest Periods. If sufficient amounts are not available to repay all outstanding Obligations described in any priority level set forth in this Section 2.12, the available amounts shall be applied, unless otherwise expressly specified herein, to such Obligations ratably based on the proportion of the Secured Parties' interest in such Obligations. Any priority level set forth in this Section 2.12 that includes interest shall include all such interest, whether or not accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, and whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in any such proceeding. Section 2.13 Payments and Computations. (a) Procedure. The Borrower shall make each payment under any Loan Document not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day when due to the Lenders (or, in the case of amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, to the Administrative Agent) by wire transfer to the respective accounts set forth on Schedule I hereto (or at such other accounts or by such other means to such other addresses as the Lenders, or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall have notified the Borrower in writing within a reasonable time prior to such payment) in immediately available Dollars and without setoff or counterclaim. The Lenders shall make any payment under any Loan Document in immediately available Dollars and without setoff or counterclaim. Payments received by the Lenders after 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. (b) Computations of Interests and Fees. All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each determination of an interest rate or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by the Administrative Agent (including determinations of a Eurodollar Rate in accordance with the definition of "Eurodollar Rate") and shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) Payment Dates. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day without any increase in such payment as a result of additional interest or fees; provided, however, that such interest and fees shall continue accruing as a result of such extension of time. Section 2.14 Evidence of Debt. (a) Records of Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts evidencing Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. In addition, each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or having identified an SPV as such to the Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose and solely for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.11 (or at such other address as such Lender shall notify the Borrower) a record of ownership, in which such Lender shall register by book entry (A) the name and address of each such participant and SPV (and each change thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise) and (B) the rights, interest or obligation of each such participant and SPV in any Obligation, in any Commitment and in any right to receive any payment hereunder (a register for participants, "Participant Register" and a register for SPV assignments, "SPV Register"). Any participation of such Registered Loan and any assignment to a SPV (and any registered note, if any, evidencing the same shall expressly so provide) may be effected only by the registration of such participation or assignment on the Participant Register or SPV Register. 34 (b) Register. The Borrower shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.11 (or at such other address as the Borrower may notify the Administrative Agent) (A) a record of ownership (the "Register") in which the Borrower shall register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of the Administrative Agent and each Lender in the Loans, each of their obligations under this Agreement to participate in each Loan, and any assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in the Register in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders (and each change thereto pursuant to Section 2.18 (Substitution of Lenders) and Section 11.2 (Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect)), (2) the Commitments of each Lender, (3) the amount of each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A) above, and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid and (5) any other payment received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower and its application to the Obligations. In the case of an assignment pursuant to the last sentence of Section 11.2(c) as to which an Assignment Agreement is not delivered to the Administrative Agent, the assigning Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (the "Related Party Register") comparable to the Register. (c) Registered Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including any Notes evidencing such Loans) are registered obligations (each a "Registered Loan"), the right, title and interest of the Lenders and their assignees in and to such Loans shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register, the SPV Register, or the Related Party Register (whichever is applicable) and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 2.14 and Section 11.2 shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions). (d) Prima Facie Evidence. The entries made in the Register and in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above (including the Related Party Register and SPV Register) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, however, that no error in such account and no failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain any such account shall affect the obligations of any Loan Party to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms. In addition, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register, the Related Party Register, the SPV Register, the Participant Register and the records maintained pursuant to Section 2.14(b) with respect to any Lender, participant or SPV shall be available for access by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or such Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent. (e) Notes. Upon any Lender's request, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver Notes to such Lender evidencing the Loans of such Lender in the Facility and substantially in the form of Exhibit B; provided, however, that only one Note shall be issued to each Lender, except (i) to an existing Lender exchanging existing Notes to reflect changes in the Register relating to such Lender, in which case the new Notes delivered to such Lender shall be dated the date of the original Notes and (ii) in the case of loss, destruction or mutilation of existing Notes and similar circumstances. Each Note, if issued, shall only be issued as means to 35 evidence the right, title or interest of a Lender or a registered assignee in and to the related Loan, as set forth in the Register, and in no event shall any Note be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. Section 2.15 [Intentionally Omitted] Section 2.16 Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital Requirements. (a) Breakage Costs. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon demand from such Lender to the Borrower (with copy to the Administrative Agent), for all Liabilities (including, in each case, those incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to prepare to fund, to fund or to maintain the Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to the Borrower but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) that such Lender may incur to the extent any Eurodollar Rate Loan is paid (whether through a scheduled, optional or mandatory prepayment) on a date that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period or (C) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof. For purposes of this clause (a), each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it using a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank market. (b) Increased Costs. If at any time any Lender determines that, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with, any Requirement of Law (other than any imposition or increase of Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) from any Governmental Authority shall have the effect of (i) increasing the cost to such Lender of making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan or to agree to do so or of participating, or agreeing to participate, in extensions of credit, (ii) imposing any other cost to such Lender with respect to compliance with its obligations under any Loan Document, then, upon demand by such Lender (with copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. (c) Increased Capital Requirements. If at any time any Lender determines that, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with, any Requirement of Law (other than any imposition or increase of Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) from any Governmental Authority regarding capital adequacy, reserves, special deposits, compulsory loans, insurance charges against property of, deposits with or for the account of, Obligations owing to, or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or any similar requirement (in each case other than any imposition or increase of Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender (or any corporation controlling such Lender) as a consequence of its obligations under or with respect to any Loan Document to a level below that which, taking into account the capital adequacy policies of such Lender or corporation, such Lender or corporation could have achieved but for such adoption or change, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. (d) Compensation Certificate. Each demand for compensation under this Section 2.16 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Lender claiming such compensation, setting forth in reasonable detail the amounts to be paid hereunder, which certificate shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 36 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any amounts incurred more than 90 days prior to the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of such Person's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Section 2.17 Taxes. (a) Payments Free and Clear of Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.17, each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (and without deduction for any of them) except for (i) taxes measured by net income (including branch profits taxes) and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, and including all liabilities, penalties and interest with respect to any of the foregoing in each case imposed on any Secured Party as a result of a present or former connection between such Secured Party and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than such connection arising solely from any Secured Party having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, any Loan Document), (ii) United States federal withholding taxes to the extent that the obligation to withhold amounts existed on the date that such Secured Party became a "Secured Party" hereunder except to the extent such Secured Party is a direct or indirect assignee (other than pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 2.18(a) (Substitution of Lenders)) of any other Secured Party that was entitled, at the time the assignment from such other Secured Party became effective, to receive additional amounts under this clause, or (iii) taxes that would not have been imposed but for the failure (other than as a result of a change in any Requirement of Law) by any Secured Party to deliver the documentation required to be delivered pursuant to clause (f) below (collectively, "Taxes"). (b) Gross-Up. If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable under any Loan Document to any Secured Party (i) such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 2.17), such Secured Party receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Loan Party shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) within 30 days after such payment is made or as soon as practicable thereafter, the relevant Secured Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an original or certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment. (c) Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay, and authorizes the Administrative Agent to pay in its name, any stamp, documentary, excise or property tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or Governmental Authority and all Liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein (collectively, "Other Taxes"). Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Loan Party, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.11, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. (d) Indemnification. The Borrower shall reimburse and indemnify, within 30 days after receipt of demand therefor (with copy to the Administrative Agent), each Secured 37 Party for all Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.17) paid by such Secured Party and any Liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate of the Secured Party (or of the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Secured Party) claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower with copy to the Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent and such Secured Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. (e) Mitigation. Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements of Law) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. (f) Tax Forms. (i) Each Secured Party that is organized in a jurisdiction outside the United States (a "Non-U.S. Lender") shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a "Non-U.S. Lender" hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (i) provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender only, or in case of a Related Party Assignment, the assigning Lender only) with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty), W-8IMY (with applicable attachments) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and such Non-U.S. Lender hereby represents that it is not (1) a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender to such exemption from United States withholding tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender under the Loan Documents.

(g) Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

(b) Procedure. To substitute such Affected Lender or pay in full the Obligations owed to such Affected Lender under the Facility, the Borrower shall deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender. The effectiveness of such payment or substitution shall be subject to recordation of such assignment on the Register and the delivery to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower (or, as may be applicable in the case of a substitution, by the Substitute Lender) of (i) payment for the account of such Affected Lender, of, to the extent accrued through, and outstanding on, the effective date for such payment or substitution, all Obligations owing to such Affected Lender (including those that will be owed because of such payment and all Obligations that would be owed to such Lender if it was solely a Lender in the Facility) and (ii) in the case of a substitution, (A) payment of the assignment fee set forth in Section 11.2(c) and (B) an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the 39 Administrative Agent whereby the Substitute Lender shall, among other things, agree to be bound by the terms of the Loan Documents and assume the Commitment of the Affected Lender.

Section 10.11 Additional Secured Parties. The benefit of the provisions of the Loan Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder shall extend to and be available to any Secured Party that is not a Lender as long as, by accepting such benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among the Administrative Agent and all other Secured Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, shall confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent) this Article X, Section 11.8 (Right of Setoff), Section 11.9 (Sharing of Payments) and Section 11.20 (Confidentiality) and the decisions and actions of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) to the same extent a Lender is bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) such Secured Party shall be bound by Section 10.8 only to the extent of Liabilities, costs and expenses with respect to or otherwise relating to the Collateral held for the benefit of such Secured Party, in which case the obligations of such Secured Party thereunder shall not be limited by any concept of Pro Rata Share or similar concept, (b) except as set forth specifically herein, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of whether any Obligation to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral, becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and without 79 any duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and (c) except as set forth specifically herein, such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified of, consent to, direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under any Loan Document. Section 10.12 Titles. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no party hereto designated as a documentation agent, a syndication agent, an arranger or a bookrunner shall have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor any fiduciary duty to any Lender or any other Secured Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against any such documentation agent, syndication agent, arranger or bookrunner, in such capacity. ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS Section 11.1 Amendments, Waivers, Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document and no consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed (1) in the case of an amendment, consent or waiver to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or granting a new Lien for the benefit of the Secured Parties or extending an existing Lien over additional property, by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, (2) in the case of any other waiver or consent, by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (3) in the case of any other amendment, by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; provided, however, that no amendment, consent or waiver described in clause (2) or (3) above shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected thereby (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of such Lender), in addition to any other Person the signature of which is otherwise required pursuant to any Loan Document, do any of the following: (i) waive any condition specified in Section 3.1, except any condition referring to any other provision of any Loan Document; (ii) increase the Commitment of such Lender or subject such Lender to any additional obligation; (iii) reduce (including through release, forgiveness, assignment or otherwise) (A) the principal amount of, the interest rate on, or any obligation of the Borrower to repay (whether or not on a fixed date), any outstanding Loan owing to such Lender or (B) any fee or accrued interest payable to such Lender; provided, however, that this clause (iii) does not apply to (x) any change to any provision increasing any interest rate or fee during the continuance of an Event of Default or to any payment of any such increase or (y) any modification to any financial covenant set forth in Article V or in any definition set forth therein or principally used therein; (iv) waive or postpone any scheduled maturity date or other scheduled date fixed for the payment, in whole or in part, of principal of or interest on any Loan or fee owing to such Lender or for the reduction of such Lender's Commitment; provided, however, that this clause (iv) does not apply to any change to 80 mandatory prepayments, including those required under Section 2.8, or to the application of any payment, including as set forth in Section 2.12 (b) (v) except as provided in Section 10.10, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or any Guarantor from its guaranty of any Obligation of the Borrower; (vi) reduce or increase the proportion of Lenders required for the Lenders (or any subset thereof) to take any action hereunder or change the definition of the terms "Required Lenders", "Pro Rata Share" or "Pro Rata Outstandings"; or (vii) amend Section 10.10 (Release of Collateral or Guarantor), Section 11.9 (Sharing of Payments) or this Section 11.1; and provided, further, that (x) no amendment, waiver or consent shall affect the rights or duties under any Loan Document of, or any payment to, the Administrative Agent (or otherwise modify any provision of Article X or the application thereof) or any SPV that has been granted an option pursuant to Section 11.2(f) unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, such SPV in addition to any signature otherwise required and (y) the consent of the Borrower shall not be required to change any order of priority set forth in Section 2.12(c). (b) Each waiver or consent under any Loan Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Loan Party shall entitle any Loan Party to any notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. No failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Section 11.2 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect. (a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, Borrower (in each case except for Article X), the Administrative Agent and each Lender and, to the extent provided in Section 10.11, each other Indemnitee and Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 10.9), none of Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein. (b) Right to Assign. Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to (i) any existing Lender, (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender or (iii) any other Person acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower (such consent to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that (w) such Sales must be ratable among the obligations owing to and owed by such Lender with respect to the Facility, (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Loans and Commitments subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor's (together 81 with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such Facility or is made with the prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and (y) so long as no Event of Default is continuing, no such Sale may be made to Persons identified on Schedule 11.2 or their Control Investment Affiliates so long as any such Persons are, in the good faith determination of the Borrower, investors in the Borrower's competitors. (c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in the last sentence of this clause (c) and in clauses (e) or (f) below) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment evidencing such Sale, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to the Administrative Agent), any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.17(f) and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500, provided that (1) if a Sale by a Lender is made to a Lender, or an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale, and (2) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an assignee that is not a Lender, or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 shall be due in connection with such Sale. Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such assignment is made in accordance with Section 11.2(b)(iii), upon the Administrative Agent (and the Borrower, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, the Administrative Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.2, a Lender may assign any or all of its rights under the Loan Documents to an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender without delivering an Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent or to any other Person (a "Related Party Assignment"); provided, however, that (1) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender until an Assignment has been delivered to the Administrative Agent for recordation on the Register, (2) the Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender until receipt by the Administrative Agent of a copy of the fully executed Assignment, (3) the failure of such assigning Lender to deliver an Assignment to the Administrative Agent shall not affect the legality, validity, or binding effect of such assignment, and (4) an Assignment and Acceptance between the assigning Lender and an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender shall be effective as of the date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance and recordation on the Related Party Register referred to in the last sentence of Section 2.14(b). (d) Effectiveness. Subject to the recording of an Assignment by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.14(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender, (ii) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto except that each Lender agrees to remain bound by Article X, Section 11.8 (Right of Setoff) and Section 11.9 (Sharing of Payments) to the extent provided in Section 10.11 (Additional Secured Parties)). 82 (e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to the Administrative Agent or (B) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender's Securities by notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above), shall be entitled to any rights of such Lender hereunder and no such Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder. (f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Lender may, (x) with notice to the Administrative Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Loans, Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender's rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 2.16 (Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital Requirements) and 2.17 (Taxes), but only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the tax forms such Lender is required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.17(f) and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to the Administrative Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender's ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 11.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in Section 11.1(a)(v) (or amendments, consents and waivers with respect to Section 10.10 to release all or substantially all of the Collateral). No party hereto shall institute (and the Borrower shall cause each other Loan Party not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding 83 (including a failure to get reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations. Section 11.3 Costs and Expenses. Any action taken by any Loan Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the reasonable request of any Secured Party, shall be at the expense of such Loan Party, and no Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Loan Party or Group Member therefor except as expressly provided therein. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse upon demand (a) the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and administration of any transaction contemplated therein (including periodic audits in connection therewith and environmental audits and assessments), in each case including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one legal counsel (including local and special counsel) to the Administrative Agent and such Related Persons and fees, charges and disbursements of the auditors, appraisers, printers and other of its Related Persons retained by or on behalf of any of them or any of their Related Persons, (b) the Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with internal audit reviews, field examinations and Collateral examinations (which shall be reimbursed, in addition to the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such examiners, at the per diem rate per individual charged by the Administrative Agent for its examiners) and (c) each of the Administrative Agent, its Related Persons, and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a "work-out", (ii) any amendment, modification or administration of any Loan Document while an Event of Default exists, (iii) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (iv) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Group Member, Loan Document, Obligation or Related Transaction (or the response to and preparation for any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto), including fees and disbursements of counsel (including allocated costs of internal counsel). Section 11.4 Indemnities. (a) The Borrower agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an "Indemnitee") from and against all Liabilities (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) any Loan Document, any Related Document, any Disclosure Document, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), the use or intended use of the proceeds of any Loan, any Related Transaction, or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Group Member, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Group Member or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any E-Systems or other Electronic Transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of Securities or creditors (and including attorneys' fees in any case), whether or not any 84 such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder or creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Requirement of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise, or (iv) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the "Indemnified Matters"); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any liability under this Section 11.4 to any Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any liability with respect to any Indemnified Matter other than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability (i) has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order or (ii) relates to taxes, for which indemnification is provided (or not provided) in Section 2.17. Furthermore, the Borrower waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Loan Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person. The foregoing provisions for indemnification are not intended to include those costs and expenses described in Section 11.03, the reimbursement of which is controlled by such Section. (b) Without limiting the foregoing, "Indemnified Matters" includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any property of any Related Person or any actual, alleged or prospective damage to property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such property or natural resource or any property on or contiguous to any real property of any Related Person, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Related Person or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, except, in the case above, to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) arise solely from events occurring in the first instance on or after the date of foreclosure, which are not related to and do not arise from circumstances existing prior to foreclosure, and (ii) (A) are incurred solely following foreclosure by any Secured Party or following any Secured Party having become the successor-in-interest to any Loan Party or (B) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee and have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. Section 11.5 Survival. Any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to any Loan Document (including pursuant to Section 2.17 (Taxes), Section 2.16 (Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital Requirements), Article X (The Administrative Agent), Section 11.3 (Costs and Expenses), Section 11.4 (Indemnities) or this Section 11.5) and all representations and warranties made in any Loan Document shall (A) survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of other Obligations and (B) inure to the benefit of any Person that at any time held a right thereunder (as an Indemnitee or otherwise) and, thereafter, its successors and permitted assigns (to the extent permitted hereunder). Section 11.6 Limitation of Liability for Certain Damages. In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). The Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees (and shall cause each other Loan Party to waive, release and agree) not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 85 Section 11.7 Lender-Creditor Relationship. The relationship between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of lender and creditor. No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Loan Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein. Section 11.8 Right of Setoff. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived to the extent permitted by Requirement of Law by the Borrower), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or the Borrower against any Obligation of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights under this Section 11.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates and other Secured Parties may have. Section 11.9 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Loan Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or "proceeds" (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Sections 2.16 (Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital Requirements), 2.17 (Taxes) and 2.18 (Substitution of Lenders) and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Secured Parties such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Secured Parties to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by the Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Borrower, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (a) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender without interest and (b) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. Section 11.10 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from the Borrower, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a 86 trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.
