Section 2.06. Commitment Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a commitment fee at the Commitment Fee Rate (determined in accordance with the Pricing Schedule) on the daily amount by which such Bank's Commitment exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Bank's Loans.

(b) If a Reduction Event shall occur, the Commitments shall be automatically and ratably reduced on the date of such Reduction Event by an amount equal to the Reduction Percentage of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Reduction Event; provided that if such portion of such Net Cash Proceeds, when aggregated with the corresponding portions of the Net Cash Proceeds for all other Reduction Events not theretofore so applied, is less than $1,000,000, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be deposited in the Restricted Account pending application pursuant to this subsection (b) in connection with a subsequent Reduction Event. (c) On the date of each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.09, the Company shall prepay, together with accrued interest thereon, an aggregate principal amount of the Loans equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate amount of such reduction of the Commitments and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans at the time outstanding.

Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the several Banks.

The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Bank its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or fees shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due from the Company to the Banks hereunder that the Company will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent that the Company shall not have so made such payment, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

Each Bank irrevocably appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Financing Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Section 7.02. Agents and Affiliates. Each of the Agents in its individual capacity shall have the same rights and powers under the Financing Documents as any other Bank and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not an Agent and each of the Agents in its individual capacity and their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company as if it were not an Agent. Section 7.03. Action by Agents. The obligations of each Agent under the Financing Documents are only those expressly set forth therein.

Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.

Section 8.04. Sharing of Set-Offs. Each Bank agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to the Note of the Company held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Bank in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to the Note of the Company held by such other Bank, the Bank receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Notes of the Company held by the other Banks, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Notes of the Company held by the Banks shall be shared by the Banks pro rata; provided that if the Bank purchasing such participations (the "SHARING BANK") should subsequently be required to refund such payment to the Company, then each Bank from whom a participation was purchased shall pay to the Sharing Bank its pro rata share of the participations purchased together with its pro rata share of interest on such amount if and to the extent the Sharing Bank is required to pay interest on any refunded amount; provided further that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Bank to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Company other than its indebtedness hereunder. The Company agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Note in respect of which it is an obligor acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation. 33 38 Section 8.05.

Any provision of this Agreement or the Notes may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Company and the Required Banks (and, if the rights or duties of either Agent are affected thereby, by it); provided that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all the Banks, (i) increase or decrease the Commitment of any Bank (except for a ratable decrease in the Commitments of all Banks) or subject any Bank to any additional obligation, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal or interest on any Loan, or any fees hereunder or for termination or scheduled reduction of any Commitment or (iv) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the number of Banks, which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any action under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement or the Notes.

Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Company hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 8.05 without the consent of the Participant. (c) Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more banks or other institutions (each an "ASSIGNEE") all, or a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations with respect to its Commitment (and corresponding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities), and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto executed by such Assignee and such transferor Bank, with (and subject to) the subscribed consent of the Company, the LC Bank and the Administrative Agent (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that (i) if an Assignee is another Bank or an Affiliate of such transferor Bank, no such consent shall be required, and (ii) immediately after giving effect to any such assignment, (x) the transferor Bank's Commitment is equal to either $0 or at least $1,500,000 and (y) the Assignee's Commitment is at least equal to $1,500,000. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required.

The Administrative Agent and each Bank shall keep confidential any information provided by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and marked as confidential or proprietary; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Bank from disclosing such information (i) to its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and accountants in accordance with customary banking practices, (ii) upon the order of a court or administrative agency, (iii) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such party, (iv) that has become publicly available without breach of any agreement between the parties hereto, (v) as necessary for the exercise of any remedy under any Financing Document or (vi) subject to provisions similar to those contained in this Section, to any prospective Participant or Assignee.

The Company hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in New York City for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other Financing Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Section 8.10. Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
