All payments required by this Agreement and/or the Note shall be paid free of any deductions or withholdings for any taxes or other amounts and without abatement, diminution or set-off. If the Borrower is required by law to make such a deduction or withholding from a payment hereunder, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, the Lender receives (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made. The Borrower shall (i) pay the full amount of any deduction or withholding, which it is required to make by law, to the relevant authority within the payment period set by the relevant law, and (ii) promptly after any such payment, deliver to the Lender an original (or certified copy) official receipt issued by the relevant authority in respect of the amount withheld or deducted or, if the relevant authority does not issue such official receipts, such other evidence of payment of the amount withheld or deducted as is reasonably acceptable to the Lender. (b) If, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, (i) any change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or application thereof, or (iii) compliance by the Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority (A) subjects the Lender to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender of any amount payable thereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or local taxing authorities with respect to interest or commitment fees or other fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Lender or its members), or (B) imposes on the Lender any other condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of making or continuing any Loan or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Lender any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as determined by the Lender. If the Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.07(b), the Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the event by reason of which the Lender has become so entitled, and each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.07(b) submitted by the Lender to the Borrower shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Section 2.08. Reversal of Payments. To the extent that any payment or payments made to or received by the Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to any trustee, receiver or other person under any state or federal bankruptcy or other such law, then, to the extent thereof, such amounts shall be revived as Obligations and continue in full force and effect hereunder as if such payment or payments had not been received by the Lender. 13 III.
