ARTICLE IV.

PAYMENTS; COMPUTATIONS; ETC.

Section 4.01 Payments. The Company (or, in the case of the principal amount of the B Percentage Lessor Investments in the circumstances described in Section 3.05(b) and if the Company shall have paid the Final Rent Payment, the Lessor), shall make each payment under this Agreement, whether the amount so paid is owing to any or all of the Funding Parties, not later than 12:00 noon, Charlotte, North Carolina, time, without setoff, counterclaim, or any other deduction whatsoever, on the day when due in Dollars to the Lessor c/o the Administrative Agent, at its address: Wachovia Bank, National Association, 000 X. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, XX 0000, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Reference: Protective Life Insurance Company Facility, or at such other location designated by notice to the Company from the Lessor, in same day funds,. The Lessor will promptly thereafter (on the same day received, if received by 2:00 p.m., Charlotte, North Carolina, time) cause to be distributed to the other Funding Parties like funds relating to the payment of principal or Yield ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.06 or 11.03 or Article V) according to the respective amounts of such principal or Yield then due and owing to the Funding Parties, to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 11.06(d), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Lessor shall make all payments under this Agreement in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. Any payments and redemptions received hereunder, other than after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Cancellation Event or Termination Event, shall be applied in accordance with the purpose for which such payment or redemption is made. All payments by the Company under any Operative Document shall be made in the manner specified in this Article IV.

Section 4.02 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each payment of A Percentage Lessor Investments and B Percentage Lessor Investments received by the Lessor shall be distributed to the A Percentage Lease Participants and B Percentage Lease Participants, as applicable, pro rata in accordance with their respective A Percentage Ownership Interests and B Percentage Ownership Interests, as applicable; (b) each payment of A Percentage Yield and B Percentage Yield received by the Lessor shall be distributed to the A Percentage Lease Participants and B Percentage Lease Participants pro rata in accordance with their respective A Percentage Ownership Interests and B Percentage Ownership Interests, as applicable; and (e) each amount received by a setoff by any Funding Party pursuant to Section 11.05 shall be shared with all other Funding Parties so that each Funding Party receives its A Percentage Share and B Percentage Share, respectively, thereof.

Section 4.03 Computations. All computations of Yield shall be made by the Lessor, on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of computations based on the Prime Rate, 365/366 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 Yield is payable. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time in such case shall be included in the computation of payment of Yield; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of Yield on or amount of any Lessor Investment to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

Section 4.04 Non-receipt of Funds by the Lessor. Unless the Lessor shall have received notice from the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Funding Parties hereunder that the Company will not make such payment in full, the Lessor may assume that the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, has made such payment in full to the Lessor on such date and the Lessor may, in reliance upon such assumption, but shall not be obligated to, cause to be distributed to each Lease Participant on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lease Participant. If and to the extent the Lessor or the Company shall not have so made such payment in full to the Lessor, each Lease Participant shall repay to the Lessor forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lease Participant together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lease Participant until the date such Lease Participant repays such amount to the Lessor, at a rate equal to (i) until the Business Day after the Business Day on which such demand is made, the Federal Funds Rate for such day and (ii) thereafter 50 basis points above the Federal Funds Rate for such day.

Section 4.05 Sharing of Payments. If any Funding Party shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of its Ownership Interests (other than pursuant to Section 4.06 or 11.03 or Article V) in excess of its ratable share of payments then due and owing to it in accordance with the payment orders specified in Section 3.05 or Section 4.02 on account of the Lessor Investments obtained by all the Funding Parties, such Funding Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Funding Parties participations in such Ownership Interests of the other Funding Parties, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Funding Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them (or, if necessary, to cause such purchasing Funding Party to assume the payment priority specified in Section 3.05), provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Funding Party, such purchase from each Funding Party shall be rescinded and each Funding Party shall repay to the purchasing Funding Party the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Funding Party’s A Percentage Share or B Percentage Share, as applicable. The Company agrees that any Funding Party so purchasing a participation from another Funding Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including any right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Funding Party were the direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

Section 4.06 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments of principal, Yield and all other amounts to be paid to the Lessor, for itself or for distribution to any Lease Participant, by the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, or any other Operative Document to each Indemnified Party, shall be made, in accordance with Section 4.01, without deduction for, and free from, any tax, imposts, levies, duties, deductions, or withholdings of any nature now or at any time hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or by any taxing authority thereof or therein, excluding in the case of each Funding Party, taxes imposed on or measured by the net income or net worth of any Funding Party, and franchise taxes imposed on such Funding Party (all such non-excluded taxes, imposts, levies, duties, deductions or withholdings of any nature being “Taxes”). In the event that the Lessor or Company, as Lessee under the Lease, is required by applicable law to make any such withholding or deduction of Taxes with respect to any Ownership Interest or other amount, the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, shall pay such deduction or withholding to the applicable taxing authority, shall promptly furnish to any Funding Party or other Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding is made all receipts and other documents evidencing such payment and shall pay to such Funding Party or other Person additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the amount received by such Funding Party or other Person after the required deduction or withholding shall equal the amount such Funding Party would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Each Lease Participant that is not chartered and organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Domestic Participant”) agrees, as soon as practicable after receipt by it of a request by the Lessor or the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, to do so, to file all appropriate forms and take other appropriate action to obtain a certificate or other appropriate document from the appropriate governmental authority in the jurisdiction imposing the relevant taxes, establishing that it is entitled to receive payments of principal and Yield under or in respect of this Agreement and its Ownership Interests without deduction and free from withholding of any Taxes imposed by such jurisdiction; provided, that, if it is unable, by virtue of any applicable law, rule or regulation, to establish such exemption or to file such forms and, in any event, during such period of time as such request for exemption is pending, the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, shall nonetheless remain obligated under the terms of the immediately preceding paragraph. Without limiting the foregoing, each Non-U.S. Domestic Participant agrees to deliver to the Lessor and to the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, promptly upon any request therefor from time to time, such forms, documents and other information as may be required by applicable law from time to time to establish that payment to such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant hereunder or with respect to its Ownership Interests or under the Guaranty are exempt from Taxes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Non-U.S. Domestic Participant agrees, on the date of its execution of this Agreement (or, in the case of an Eligible Assignee, on the date on which such Eligible Assignee becomes a party to this Agreement), to deliver in duplicate to the Lessor and to the Company, as Lessor under the Lease, accurate and duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or 1001 (as applicable), together with Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8 or W-9, as appropriate, establishing that such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant is entitled to a complete exemption from all Taxes imposed by the federal government of the United States by way of withholding, including without limitation, all backup withholding (“U.S. Withholding Taxes”). Thereafter, from time to time (i) upon any change by a Non-U.S. Domestic Participant of its Applicable Funding Office, (ii) before or promptly after any event occurs (including, without limitation, the passing of time) requiring a change in or update of the most recent Form 4224 or 1001 previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant, or (iii) upon the reasonable request of the Lessor or the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant shall deliver in duplicate to the Lessor and to the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, accurate and duly completed and executed Form 4224 or 1001 (as applicable) (together with Forms W-8 or W-9, as aforesaid) in replacement of the forms previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant, establishing that such Non- U.S. Domestic Participant is entitled to an exemption in whole or in part from all U.S. Withholding Taxes except to the extent that a change in law has rendered all such forms inapplicable to such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant.

(c) If the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxation authority in the United States or in any other jurisdiction successfully asserts a claim that such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant, the Lessor or the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Non-U.S. Domestic Participant or its participant (because the appropriate form was not properly executed, or because such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant failed to notify the Lessor, Company, as Lessee under the Lease, of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from (or reduction in) U.S. Withholding Taxes ineffective), such Non-U.S. Domestic Participant shall indemnify the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Lessor or the Company, as Lessee under the Lease, as applicable, as tax or otherwise, including, without limitation, penalties and interest.

(d) In the event any Funding Party receives a refund from the Governmental Authority to which such Taxes were paid of any Taxes paid by the Company pursuant to this Section 4.06, it will pay to the Company the amount of such refund promptly upon receipt thereof; provided, however, if at any time thereafter it is required to return such refund, the Company shall promptly repay to it the amount of such refund.

(e) Nothing in this Section shall require any Funding Party to disclose any information about its tax affairs or interfere with, limit or abridge the right of any Funding Party to arrange its tax affairs in any manner in which it desires.

(f) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Company hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Company and the Funding Parties contained in this Section 4.06 shall be applicable with respect to any Funding Party, Eligible Assignee or other transferee, and any calculations required by such provisions (i) shall be made based upon the circumstances of such Funding Party, Eligible Assignee or other transferee (subject to Section 11.06(j)), and (ii) constitute a continuing agreement and shall survive for a period of 2 years after the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Lessor Investments.

ARTICLE V.

YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 5.01 Basis for Determining Yield Rate Inadequate or Unfair. The Lessor shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Lease Participants of the applicable Yield determined by the Lessor for purposes of Sections 3.03(a) and (b). If on or prior to the first day of any Yield Period:

(a) the Lessor determines that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts), are not being offered in the relevant market for such Yield Period, or

(b) the Majority Funding Parties determine and give notice to the Lessor that the rates or yield determined on the basis of the LIBO Rate for any Yield Period for Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Majority Funding Parties of maintaining their respective Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments for such Yield Period, the Lessor shall forthwith so notify the Company and the Lease Participants, whereupon,

(i) in the case of such notice from the Majority Funding Parties, the Lessor Investments and Lease Participant Investments will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Yield Period, accrue Yield at a rate based upon the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin as set forth in the Pricing Schedule, and

(ii) the obligation of the Majority Funding Parties to maintain Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, as applicable, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be suspended until the Lessor shall notify the Company and the Lease Participants that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

Upon the written request of the Company, the Lessor shall negotiate with the Company and the relevant Lease Participants for a reasonable period of time, as determined in the Lessor’s discretion, to develop a substitute interest rate basis hereunder; provided, however, (x) the Lessor, the Lease Participants and the Company make no representation, warranty or covenant that any such agreement will be made, and (y) any relevant Lessor Investments and Lease Participant Investments shall continue to have Yield accrue thereon at the Base Rate during the continuance of any such negotiations and thereafter should no alternate interest rate be agreed to by the necessary parties.

Section 5.02 Illegality. If, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (any such agency being referred to as a “Banking Authority” and any such event being referred to as a “Change of Law”), or compliance by any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any Banking Authority shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) to make or maintain its Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, as applicable, based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate and such Funding Party (if not the Lessor) shall so notify the Lessor, the Lessor shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Funding Parties and to the Company and the Guarantor, whereupon until such Funding Party notifies the Lessor (if it is not such Funding Party), the other Funding Parties, the Company and the Guarantor that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Funding Party to make or maintain Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, as applicable, based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Lessor (or, in the case of the Lessor as a Funding Party, to the Company) pursuant to this Section, such Funding Party shall designate a different Applicable Funding Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Funding Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Funding Party. If such Funding Party shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, as applicable, to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Company shall immediately redeem the full amount of the Lessor Investments (if such Funding Party is the Lessor) together with Yield thereon, or the full amount of such Funding Party’s Lease Participant Investments (if such Funding Party is not the Lessor) together with Yield thereon. At any time within 90 days after the giving of a notice by any Lease Participant pursuant to this Section 5.02, so long as no Event of Default shall be in existence, and so long as the Lessor has granted its consent (which it may grant or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), the Company may require by written notice to that Lease Participant that (a) it assign its Lease Participant Investments to another Lease Participant or to a bank or other financial institution selected by the Company which is willing to accept such assignment or (b) it surrender its Lease Participant Investments and terminate its rights and obligations as a Lease Participant hereunder, concurrently with a redemption by the Company of the Lease Participant Investments of such Lease Participant together with Yield thereon (which redemption and Yield shall be paid to such Lease Participant).

Section 5.03 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) If after the date hereof, a Change of Law or compliance by any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any Banking Authority:

(i) shall subject any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) to any tax, duty or other charge on its Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, or maintain its Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) of the principal amount of or interest on its Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, or Yield thereon or any other amounts due under this Agreement or any other Operative Document in respect of its Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments (except for changes in the rate of any tax based on the net income, net worth or gross receipts of such Funding Party or its Applicable Funding Office); or

(ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any such requirement included in an applicable Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office); or

(iii) shall impose on any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) or on the United States market or the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, or obligation to make or maintain Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) of making or maintaining any Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) under this Agreement or any other Operative Document with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Funding Party to be material, then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Funding Party (with a copy to the Lessor, if it is not such Funding Party), the Company shall pay to such Funding Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Funding Party for such increased cost or reduction; provided, however, that no such amount may be claimed by any Funding Party which is attributable to periods prior to the date which is 180 days preceding the date on which the officer of the Funding Party having primary responsibility for asset-liability management shall have obtained actual knowledge of such Change of Law or request or directive. At any time within 90 days after payment by the Company of any material amount to any Lease Participant or Lease Participants pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, so long as no Event of Default shall be in existence, and so long as the Lessor has granted its consent (which it may grant or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), the Company may require by written notice to each such Lease Participant that (i) it assign its Lease Participant Investments to another Lease Participant or to a bank or other financial institution selected by the Company which is willing to accept such assignment or (ii) it surrender its Lease Participant Investments and terminate its rights and obligations as a Lease Participant hereunder, concurrently with a redemption by the Company of the Lessor Investments by an amount equal to the Lease Participant Investments held by that Lease Participant together with Yield thereon (which redemption and Yield shall be paid to such Lease Participant).

(b) If any Funding Party shall have determined that after the date hereof the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or official administration thereof, or compliance by any Funding Party (or its Applicable Funding Office) or any Person controlling such Funding Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any Banking Authority, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Funding Party’s or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Funding Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Funding Party’s or such controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Funding Party or such controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Funding Party or such controlling Person, the Company shall pay to such Funding Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Funding Party or such controlling Person for such reduction, subject to the proviso at the end of Section 5.03(a).

(c) Each Funding Party will promptly notify the Lessor (if such Funding Party is a Lease Participant) and the Company of any event of which its officer having primary responsibility for asset-liability management has knowledge, which occurs or is expected to occur after the date hereof, which will entitle such Funding Party to compensation pursuant to and subject to the limitations contained in this Section and will designate a different Applicable Funding Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Funding Party, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Funding Party. A certificate of any Funding Party claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be presumed to be correct in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Funding Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Nothing in this Section shall require any Funding Party to disclose any information about its tax affairs or interfere with, limit or abridge the right of any Funding Party to arrange its tax affairs in any manner it desires, subject to Section 11.16(b).

(d) The provisions of this Section 5.03 shall (i) be applicable with respect to any Funding Party, assignee or other transferee, and any calculations required by such provisions shall be made based upon the circumstances of such Funding Party, assignee or other transferee and (ii) constitute a continuing agreement and shall survive for a period of one year after the termination of this Agreement and the redemption in full of the Lessor Investments and Lease Participant Investments.

Section 5.04 Base Rate Substituted for Adjusted LIBO Rate. If (i) the obligation of any Funding Party to make or maintain Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments has been suspended pursuant to Section 5.02 or (ii) any Funding Party has demanded compensation under Section 5.03, and the Company shall, by at least 5 Business Days’ prior notice to such Funding Party, with a copy to the Lessor (if it is not such Funding Party), have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Funding Party, then, unless and until such Funding Party notifies the Lessor (if it is not such Funding Party) and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer apply:

(a) all Lessor Investments or Lease Participant Investments that would otherwise be made or maintained by such Funding Party (and Lessor Investments related thereto, if such Funding Party is a Lease Participant) based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be made or, from the beginning of the next Yield Period therefor, be maintained instead based upon the Base Rate, plus the Applicable Margin (in all cases Yield and principal or other amounts payable on such Lessor Investments and/or Lease Participant Investments shall be payable contemporaneously with the related or comparable amount payable in respect of the other Funding Parties), and

(b) after each of the Lessor Investments and/or Lease Participant Investments made or maintained based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate has been repaid, all payments of principal that would otherwise be applied to redeem such Lessor Investments and/or Lease Participant Investments shall be applied to redeem Lessor Investments and/or Lease Participant Investments made or maintained based upon the Base Rate instead.

Section 5.05 Compensation. Upon the request of any Funding Party, delivered to the Lessor (if it is not such Funding Party) and the Company, the Company shall pay to such Funding Party such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Funding Party for any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Funding Party as a result of any payment, prepayment or redemption (pursuant to Section 5.02 or otherwise) of a Lessor Investment or Lease Participant Investment on a date other than the last day of the Yield Period therefor.

Section 5.06 Payments and Computations. Each determination by the Lessor of Yield, or by any Funding Party of an increased cost or increased capital or of illegality hereunder, shall be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes (absent manifest error) if made reasonably and in good faith, subject to Section 5.03(c).

(a) Corporate Existence and Power. The Company and the Guarantor are corporations duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Tennessee and Delaware, respectively. The Company and the Guarantor are each duly qualified to transact business in every jurisdiction where failure to be qualified reasonably could be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and has all corporate powers and all government authorizations, licenses, consents and approvals required to engage in its business and operations as now conducted.

(c) Binding Effect.

(ii) Since December 31, 2005, there has been no event, act, condition or occurrence having a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) No Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 7.01(e), there is no action, suit or proceeding pending, or to the actual knowledge of the Company and the Guarantor, threatened in writing, against or affecting the Guarantor, the Company or any other Subsidiary before any court or arbitrator or any governmental body, agency or official which (i) would reasonably be expected to have or cause a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) in any manner draws into question the validity of or could reasonably be expected to impair the ability of the Company or the Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Operative Documents executed by the Company or the Guarantor.

There have been filed on behalf of the Guarantor, the Company and each other Subsidiary, all Federal, state and material local income, excise, property and other tax returns which are required to be filed by them, except where the failure to file has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, and all taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by or on behalf of the Guarantor, the Company or any other Material Subsidiary have been paid or are being contested in good faith or, if unpaid and uncontested, would not have and could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

In the event that none of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates purchases the Facility from the Lessor pursuant to the Lease, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to provide to the Lessor such support in addition to that provided for in this Agreement as the Lessor reasonably may deem necessary to maintain, use, occupy and operate the Facility for the Permitted Use or any other purpose requested by the Lessor.

(h) Personnel. The Company shall at all times employ, or cause to be employed, qualified and properly trained personnel to perform the Company's obligations under this Section 8.30, and shall pay all wages and benefits required by law or contract.

The Lessor shall have the right to request the removal from the Facility of any personnel reasonably deemed unqualified by the Lessor.

(i) Warranties and Guarantees. The Company shall use its best reasonable efforts consistent with good industry practices to obtain warranties for the Lessor for parts, equipment, materials or services provided by third-party suppliers in fulfilling the Company's obligations under this Agreement. The Company shall comply with all applicable warranties and guarantees presented by Vendors or contractors, and shall take no action that in any way impairs any rights or claims of the Lessor under this Agreement or any Vendor's or other Person's warranty. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall use spare parts that will not adversely affect the Lessor's protection or rights under such warranties or guarantees.

(j) Removal. The Lessor may at any time, upon 5 days written notice, terminate its engagement of the Company under this Section 8.30 to maintain and operate the Facility, without terminating this Agreement; provided, however, that the Lessor shall, upon 2 week's written notice to the Company, be entitled to request the Company to resume its duties under this Section 8.30 for the duration of the term of this Agreement to maintain and operate the Facility and the Company shall comply with such request.

All such Support Expenses advanced by the Company shall be accounted for by the Company and reported to Lessor pursuant to monthly written operating reports certified by an authorized officer of the Company. The Lessor shall reimburse the Company for support expenses actually advanced by the Company together with simple interest thereon at the Base Rate per annum, on the earlier to occur of the date following (i) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.30(n), or (ii) the date the Facility is sold by or on behalf of the Lessor (and if this Agreement is terminated by the Lessor prior to the sale of the Facility by the Company on behalf of the Lessor, the Lessor shall use reasonable commercial efforts to sell the Facility as soon as is reasonably practical, taking into account the then existing real estate market and the ability to realize sufficient proceeds to pay in full all of the Lessor Investment, Yield thereon and other amount due and payable under the Lease and the other Operative Documents). Reimbursement under subsection (i) of this Section 8.30(l) shall be reimbursed by the Lessor solely out of available excess proceeds from the sale of the Facility under Section 15 of the Lease and reimbursement under subsection (ii) of this Section 8.30(l) shall be reimbursed by the Lessor solely out of available excess proceeds from the sale of the Facility by the Lessor as contemplated therein. In no event shall the Lessor be obligated to reimburse the Company for Support Expenses except to the extent of available excess proceeds described above. The Company's right to reimbursement pursuant hereto above shall at all times and in all respects be subject and subordinate to the rights of the Lessor to receive full repayment of the Unrecovered Lessor Investments, including Yield thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be entitled to reimbursement for any costs expended or incurred from the Lease Termination Date or Cancellation Date, as applicable, through the Purchase Closing Date, if extended by the Lessor under Section 15(e) of the Lease, in the event that the Company elects to purchase the Facility and elects to remain in possession of the Facility pursuant to the license referenced in Section 15(e) of the Lease. All such costs shall be the responsibility of the Company and shall represent the license fee payable in consideration of the rights afforded under such license.

(m) Standard of Care. The Company shall perform all of its duties and obligations under this Section 8.30 in accordance with the standards mandated under Section 7 of the Lease as if fully set forth herein (which standards are hereby incorporated, mutatis mutandis, herein by reference) and in a good, workmanlike and commercially reasonable manner. The Company shall exercise such care and in the same manner as a prudent Person engaged in the business of managing and operating Property similar to the Facility and used in a similar location for the Permitted Use would in the advancement and protection of such Person's own economic interests and the maximization of such Person's profits therefrom. Maintenance shall be scheduled so as to minimize interference with the use, occupation and operation of the Facility and cost consistent with good industry operating and safety standards and all Governmental Requirements and Insurance Requirements.

(n) Termination of the Company’s Obligations Under Section 8.30. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company’s obligations under this Section 8.30 shall commence on the Restatement Closing Date and shall terminate upon the expiration or other termination of the Lease and consummation of the purchase by the Company or the Guarantor (or an Affiliate thereof) of the Facility for the Purchase Price in accordance with the Lease; provided, however, that upon the termination of the Lease, and provided that the Company or the Guarantor (or an Affiliate thereof) shall not have purchased and paid the Purchase Price for the Facility in accordance with the terms of the Lease, this Section 8.30 shall continue in full force and effect until the date the Facility is sold to a Person other than the Lessee or any of its Affiliates or any earlier written notice from the Lessor of its election to terminate this Agreement.

Section 8.31 Post-Closing Matters. Within twenty days following the Restatement Closing Date, the Company will:

(a) Execute and deliver an amendment (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor) to that certain Reciprocal Easement Agreement dated as of February 1, 2000, by and between the Company and WCI, recorded as instrument #200002/0941 in the Probate Court of Jefferson County, Alabama (as the same may have been amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time through the date of such amendment), so as to extend the easements granted thereunder over that portion of the Site which was released prior to the Restatement Closing Date in accordance with the Original Lease Documents; and

(b) Execute and deliver an agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor) pertaining to the existence of, and terms and conditions governing, the common wall between the Facility and another parcel of real property currently owned by Lessee.

ARTICLE X.

THE LESSOR AS SERVICING AGENT FOR THE LEASE PARTICIPANTS; THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 10.01 Lessor as Servicing Agent.

(a) Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Lease Participant hereby appoints and authorizes the Lessor to take such action as servicing agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Lessor by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement or collection of the Lessor Investments), the Lessor shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Funding Parties, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lease Participants; provided, however, that the Lessor shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Lessor to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Lessor agrees to give to each Lease Participant prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Guarantor or the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the Operative Documents.

(b) Reliance by Lessor. Neither the Lessor nor any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, or its failure to pay to any Lease Participant its Percentage Share of any Rent or other amounts in which such Lease Participant has an Ownership Interest which the Lessor actually has received. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Lessor: (a) may treat any Lease Participant as the owner of its Ownership Interest until the Lessor receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by such Lease Participant, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 11.06; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Guarantor or the Company), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lease Participant and shall not be responsible to any Lease Participant for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents on the part of the Guarantor or the Company or to inspect the Facility or the property (including the books and records) of the Guarantor or the Company; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lease Participant for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Operative Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the Operative Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopier, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; and (g) shall act or refrain from acting, and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting, in selling or otherwise disposing of the Facility in accordance with the Security Instruments, upon receiving instructions signed by the Majority Funding Parties.

(c) Defaults. The Lessor shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default (other than the non-payment of Rent) unless the Lessor has received notice from a Lease Participant or the Company specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” In the event that the Lessor receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Lessor shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lease Participants (and shall give each Lease Participant prompt notice of each such non-payment). The Lessor shall (subject to Section 10.07) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Majority Funding Parties, as provided in Section 10.02, provided that, unless and until the Lessor shall have received such directions, the Lessor may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Funding Parties.

(d) Rights as a Funding Party. With respect to its Lessor Commitment and its Ownership Interests, the Lessor shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Funding Party (except to the extent the rights and obligations of the Lessor as such are different from the rights of the Lease Participants as such) and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the agent of the Lease Participants as provided herein; and the term “Funding Party” or “Funding Parties” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Lessor in its individual capacity. The Lessor and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Guarantor, the Company, any of the other Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Guarantor or any of the Subsidiaries, all as if the Lessor were not the agent of the Lease Participants pursuant hereto and without any duty to account therefor to the Lease Participants.

(e) Indemnification by Lease Participants. The Lease Participants agree to indemnify the Lessor (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company), ratably according to their respective Ownership Interests, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, orders, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Lessor in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Operative Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Lessor under this Agreement or any of the Operative Documents, provided that no Lease Participant shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, orders, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Lessor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or its failure to pay to any Lease Participant its Percentage Share of any Rent or other amounts in which such Lease Participant has an Ownership Interest which the Lessor actually has received. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lease Participant agrees to reimburse the Lessor promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Lessor in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Operative Documents, to the extent that the Lessor is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Guarantor or the Company.

(f) Indemnification by Lessor. Solely to the limited extent, if any, monies are received by Lessor from Company with respect to the Indemnified Risks and without recourse to the Lessor except with respect to such monies received, the Lessor agrees to indemnify and save harmless each other Indemnified Party, from and against all liabilities, Liens, Taxes, losses, obligations, claims, damages (including, without limitation, penalties, fines, court costs and administrative service fees), penalties, demands, causes of action, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), judgments, orders, sums paid in settlement of claims, and costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and all other expenses incurred, suffered or realized in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any cause of action, suit or proceeding (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries) or claim which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any of them (whether or not any of them is named as a party thereto) as a result of, arising directly or indirectly out of or in any way related to any of the Indemnified Risks.

(g) Non-Reliance on Lessor and other Lease Participants. Each Lease Participant acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Lessor or any other Lease Participant and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 7.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lease Participant also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Lessor or any other Lease Participant and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lease Participants by the Lessor hereunder, the Lessor shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lease Participant with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Guarantor, the Company or any affiliates thereof, which may come into the possession of the Lessor or any of its affiliates.

(h) Failure to Act. The Lessor shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under the Operative Documents unless it shall be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lease Participants against any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnity (or any other payment or reimbursement) for any Indemnified Risks pursuant to this Section 11.03(b) to the extent such Indemnified Risks result from or arise out of (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party or (ii) for any risks arising from any third-party damage claims arising from acts or omissions occurring during the Construction Term, other than third-party damage claims caused by or resulting from the Company’s (or any of the Company Agents’) own actions or failures to act while in possession or control of the Facility or for any risks beyond the control of the Company during the Construction Term (directly or through the Company Agents), including acts of God, casualty losses and condemnations.

(c) The risks identified in Section 11.03(b) are referred to in this Agreement, individually and collectively, as the context shall require, as the “Indemnified Risks.” The Lessor, the Administrative Agent, and each Lease Participant, and their respective successors and assigns, and their officers, directors, incorporators, shareholders, employees, agents, partners, attorneys, affiliates, contractors, subcontractors and servants are referred to in this Agreement individually as an “Indemnified Party” and collectively as the “Indemnified Parties.”

(d) If any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Indemnified Party, whether such action, suit, proceeding, or claim shall be actual or threatened, or in preparation therefor, the Company will have the right, at its expense, to assume the resistance and defense of such cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim or cause the same to be resisted and defended; provided that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled (but not obligated) to participate jointly in such defense, in which case such Indemnified Party will be responsible for its own legal fees or other expenses, if any, related to such defense incurred subsequent to the joint participation by such party in such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding, or claim (and the Company agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Party on demand for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the Indemnified Party), if (i) such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel chosen by it that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Company or (ii) the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall have advised such Indemnified Party that such action, suit, proceeding, or claim involves a risk of the imposition of criminal liability or will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture, or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien of the type described in clause (i) of the definition thereof) on the Lease or the Facility or any part thereof. The Company may settle any action which it defends hereunder on such terms as it may deem advisable in its sole discretion, subject to its ability promptly to perform in full the terms of such settlement and only if such settlement does not include any admission of bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or criminal conduct to be entered against, or deemed made by, any Indemnified Party (unless the Indemnified Parties implicated thereby or involved therein agree thereto in writing in their sole discretion). No Indemnified Party may seek indemnification or other reimbursement or payment, including attorneys’ fees or expenses, from the Company for any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim settled, compromised or in any way disposed of by the Indemnified Party without the Company’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 11.03 shall survive the expiration or any termination of this Agreement (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and the payment of amounts owed by the Company under this Agreement and the other Operative Documents, and shall also expressly survive any sale, transfer or conveyance of the Facility made by the Lessor pursuant to the Lease for a period of 2 years after the termination of this Agreement and any such sale, transfer or conveyance, except for indemnification obligations of the Company, which shall continue to survive thereafter.

(f) Upon demand for payment by any Indemnified Party of any Indemnified Risks incurred by it for which indemnification is sought, the Company shall pay when due and payable the full amount of such Indemnified Risks to the appropriate party, unless and only so long as: (i) the Company shall have assumed the defense of such action and is diligently prosecuting the same; (ii) the Company is financially able to pay all its obligations outstanding and asserted against the Company at that time, including the full amount of the Indemnified Risks; and (iii) the Company has taken all action as may be reasonably necessary to prevent (1) the collection of such Indemnified Risks from, or the assertion of any Lien in respect thereof against, the Indemnified Party or its property or assets; (2) the sale, forfeiture or loss of the Facility or any portion thereof, or any property or assets of such Indemnified Party during such defense of such action; and (3) the imposition of any civil or criminal liability for failure to pay such Indemnified Risks when due and payable.

(g) The Company acknowledges and agrees, subject to the limitations contained in paragraph (b), that its obligations under this Section 11.03 are intended to include and extend to any and all liabilities, Liens, Taxes, losses, obligations, claims, damages (including, without limitation, penalties, fines, court costs and administrative service fees), penalties, demands, causes of action, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), judgments, orders, sums paid in settlement of claims, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, response and remediation costs, stabilization costs, encapsulation costs, and treatment, storage or disposal costs), imposed upon or incurred by or asserted at any time against any Indemnified Party (whether or not indemnified against by any other party) as a result of, arising directly or indirectly out of or in any way related to (A) the treatment, storage, disposal, generation, use, transport, movement, presence, release, threatened release, spill, installation, sale, emission, injection, leaching, dumping, escaping or seeping of any alleged Hazardous Materials at, under, onto, above, within or from the Facility or any part thereof or any business conducted on or related to the Facility or the Site; (B) the violation or alleged violation of any Environmental Requirements relating to or in connection with the Facility or any part thereof or any acts or omissions thereon or relating thereto; (C) all other federal, state and local laws designed to protect the environment or persons or property therein, whether now existing or hereinafter enacted, promulgated or issued by any governmental authority relating to or in connection with the Facility or any part thereof or any acts or omissions thereon or relating thereto; (D) the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations under Section 7 of the Lease; and (E) any abandonment of the Facility by the Company.

(h) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.03, the Company agrees to pay or reimburse, promptly upon demand, and protect, indemnify and save harmless, the Lessor following the occurrence of a Termination Event, from any action by any Sublessee or other owner of an interest in the Facility (other than a Co-Lessee) which causes the Lessor any delay in exercising its remedies, or results in the reduction of the Lessor’s remedies, under the Lease.

(i) In case any action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, but the failure to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the Company from liability hereunder, except to the extent such failure deprives the Company of any material defense otherwise available to the Company in connection therewith.

Section 11.04 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Funding Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Operative Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder or under any Operative Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 11.05 Right of Set-Off. Upon the declaration of the principal amount Unrecovered Lessor Investments and the accrued Yield thereon and all other amounts payable by the Company hereunder and under the other Operative Documents, to be due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.02(a), each Funding Party and the Administrative Agent, and each of their respective Affiliates, is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Funding Party, Administrative Agent, or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any and all of the obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held as part of its Ownership Interests by such Funding Party, Administrative Agent, or Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Funding Party, Administrative Agent, or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Funding Party (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates), as applicable, agrees promptly to notify the Company after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Funding Party, the Administrative Agent, and such Affiliates under this Section 11.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the same may have. All amounts received by any Funding Party, the Administrative Agent, or any such Affiliate pursuant to this Section 11.05 shall be shared with the other Funding Parties pursuant to Section 4.02(d).

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lease Participant hereunder and (B) the assigning Lease Participant thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lease Participant’s Ownership Interests, such Lease Participant shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) By executing and delivering an assignment by the Lessor or an Assignment and Acceptance by a Lease Participant, each assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in assignment by the Lessor or such Assignment and Acceptance by a Lease Participant, such assigning Lessor or Lease Participant makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lessor or Lease Participant makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Guarantor or the Company or the performance or observance by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Operative Document or by the Guarantor under the Guaranty; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 7.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into assignment or such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Lessor (if it is an assignee of a Lease Participant), such assigning Lessor or Lease Participant or any other Lease Participant and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Lessor Assignee or Eligible Assignee, as applicable; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Lessor (if it is not an assignee of a Lease Participant) and the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent or Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the Lease Participants on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as either the Lessor or a Lease Participant, as the case may be.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain on behalf of the Lessor at its address referred to in Section 11.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lease Participants and the Ownership Interests and Lease Participant Investments owing to each Lease Participant from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Administrative Agent, the Guarantor, the Company, the Lessor and the other Lease Participants may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lease Participant hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

(g) The Lessor or any Lease Participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 11.06, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Guarantor or the Company furnished to the Lessor or such Lease Participant by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree in writing for the benefit of the Guarantor and the Company to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Guarantor or the Company received by it from the Lessor or such Lease Participant in a manner consistent with Section 11.13.

(h) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lease Participant may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Ownership Interests) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor regulation) and the applicable operating circular of such Federal Reserve Bank.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Document, neither the Guarantor or the Company nor any of their Affiliates (i) may acquire any of the Ownership Interests unless the Guarantor or the Company or such Affiliate acquires all of the Ownership Interests in a single transaction and thereby becomes bound by the provisions hereof; and unless the Guarantor or the Company or such Affiliate shall have acquired all of the Ownership Interests, it shall not be entitled to exercise any rights or remedies of a Funding Party under any of the Operative Documents.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no assignee or participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.06 or 5.03 than the transferor Funding Party would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Company’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 5.02 or 5.03 hereof requiring such Funding Party to designate a different Applicable Funding Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such a greater payment did not exist.

In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Operative Document shall, for any reason, be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Document.

Section 11.14 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement (including, but not limited to, the validity and enforceability hereof and thereof) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, other than the conflict of laws rules thereof (other than Section 5.1401 of the New York General Obligations Law), except to the extent that the laws of the State of Alabama mandatorily apply.

(b) The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New York City and any appellate court from any thereof in any action or proceeding by the Lessor or any Lease Participant in respect of, but only in respect of, any claims or causes of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Operative Documents (such claims and causes of action, collectively, being “Permitted Claims”), and the Company hereby irrevocably agrees that all Permitted Claims may be heard and determined in such New York State court or in such Federal court. The Company hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any aforementioned court in respect of Permitted Claims. The Company hereby irrevocably agrees that service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served by the Lessor, the Administrative Agent, or the Lease Participants in any such action or proceeding in any aforementioned court in respect of Permitted Claims may be made by delivering a copy of such process to the Company by courier and by certified mail (return receipt requested), fees and postage prepaid, at the Company’s address specified pursuant to Section 11.02. The Company agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Nothing in this Section 11.14: (i) shall affect the right of any Lease Participant or the Lessor to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect any right otherwise existing of any Lease Participant or the Lessor to bring any action or proceeding against the Company or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions or (ii) shall be deemed to be a general consent to jurisdiction in any particular court or a general waiver of any defense or a consent to jurisdiction of the courts expressly referred to in subsection (a) above in any action or proceeding in respect of any claim or cause of action other than Permitted Claims.

Section 11.15 Yield. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Funding Party shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Funding Party under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Funding Party notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Operative Document or any other agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Ownership Interests, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Funding Party that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Funding Party under this Agreement or under any of the other aforesaid Operative Documents or other agreements or otherwise in connection with the Ownership Interests shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and any excess shall be cancelled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Funding Party on the principal amount of its Ownership Interests (or, to the extent that the principal amount of its Ownership Interests shall have been or would thereby be redeemed in full, refunded by such Lease Participant to the Lessor and by the Lessor to the Company); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the Ownership Interests is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted redemption, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Funding Party may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess Yield, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically by such Funding Party as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Funding Party on the principal amount of its Ownership Interests (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Ownership Interests shall have been or would thereby be redeemed in full, refunded by such Lease Participant to the Lessor and by the Lessor to the Company). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Funding Party for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Funding Party, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in equal parts throughout the full term of the Ownership Interests, until payment in full, so that the rate or amount of Yield on account of any Ownership Interests hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of Yield payable to any Funding Party on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Funding Party pursuant to this Section 11.15 and (ii) in respect of any subsequent Yield computation period the amount of Yield otherwise payable to such Funding Party would be less than the amount of Yield payable to such Funding Party computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Funding Party, then the amount of Yield payable to such Funding Party in respect of such subsequent Yield computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Funding Party until the total amount of Yield payable to such Funding Party shall equal the total amount of Yield which would have been payable to such Funding Party if the total amount of Yield had been computed without giving effect to this Section.

Section 11.16 Characterization.

(a) In order to protect the rights and remedies of the Funding Parties following a Termination Event or a Cancellation Event, and for the purposes of commercial law and Federal, state and local income and ad valorem taxes and Title 11 of the United States Code (or any other applicable Federal, state or local insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar law now or hereafter in effect for the relief of debtors), the parties hereto intend that (i) the Lease be treated as the repayment and security provisions of a loan by the Lessor to the Company in the amount of the Facility Cost, (ii) all payments of Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent, the Final Rent Payment, the Termination Value and the Purchase Price be treated as payments of principal, interest and other amounts owing with respect to such loan and (iii) the Company be treated as entitled to all benefits of ownership of the Facility or any part thereof. In addition, the parties acknowledge that after payment in full of the Ownership Interests, the Yield accrued thereon and any other obligations of the Company under the Operative Documents, any remaining proceeds of the Facility shall be distributed to the Company.

(b) The Company agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates (whether or not consolidated or combined returns are filed for any such Affiliate and the Company for federal, state or local income tax purposes) will at any time take any action, directly or indirectly, or file any return or other document inconsistent with the intended income tax treatment set forth in the preceding clause (a), and the Company agrees that the Company and any such Affiliates will file such returns, maintain such records, take such action and execute such documents (as reasonably requested by the Lessor or the Lease Participants from time to time) as may be appropriate to facilitate the realization of such intended income tax treatment. Each of the Lessor and the Lease Participants agrees that neither it nor any affiliate (whether or not consolidated or combined returns are filed for such affiliate and the Lessor or any Lease Participant, as the case may be, for federal, state or local income tax purposes) will at any time take any action, directly or indirectly, or file any return or other document claiming, or asserting that it is entitled to, the income tax benefits, deductions and/or credits which, pursuant to the intended income tax treatment set forth herein, would otherwise be claimed or claimable by the Company, and that it and any such affiliates will file such returns, maintain such records, take such actions, and execute such documents (as reasonably requested by the Company from time to time) as may be appropriate to facilitate the realization of, and as shall be consistent with, such intended income tax treatment, and if any such filing, maintenance, action or execution requested by the Company or the Guarantor would result in any additional income tax liability payable by it or any affiliate, or could reasonably be expected to result in liability payable by it or any affiliate, unrelated to the intended income tax treatment set forth herein, then the Company will provide an indemnity against such unrelated income tax liability satisfactory to the Lessor or any Lease Participant, as the case may be, in its sole opinion.

(c) The Company acknowledges that no Lease Participant, the Administrative Agent, the Lessor or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing thereof is making any representation, nor is it required to make any disclosure, now or in the future, with respect to the parties’ tax or accounting treatment of the Facility or the financing thereof, nor is any Lease Participant, the Lessor, the Administrative Agent, or any Affiliate or any of the foregoing responsible, nor will it be responsible in the future, for tax and accounting advice with respect to the Facility or the financing thereof, and the Company has had or will have the benefit of the advice of its own independent tax and accounting advisors with respect to such matters.

Section 11.17 Compliance. None of the Lessor, the Administrative Agent, nor any Lease Participant has any responsibility for compliance by the Facility or the Company with any Governmental Requirement or other matters. The Company expressly assumes such responsibilities and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Lessor, the Administrative Agent, and the Lease Participants with respect thereto in the manner provided in the Lease.

Section 11.18 Facility. Upon payment by the Company of the Purchase Price Value in connection with its purchase of all of the Facility in accordance with the Lease, or the repayment in full of all amounts then due and owing by the Company under the Operative Documents, and promptly upon the request of the Company, the Lessor shall convey the Facility to the Company or its designee, free and clear of any Lien or other adverse interest of any kind created by the Lessor or any Person claiming by, through or under the Lessor, including, without limitation, the Lessor and the Lease Participants (except as consented to by the Company).

Section 11.19 Funding Parties. No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of any Funding Party contained in this Agreement, any Operative Document or any agreement or document executed in connection herewith or therewith or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be had against any shareholder, employee, officer, director, affiliate or incorporator of the Funding Parties. The obligations, covenants and agreements of the Funding Parties under any of the foregoing agreements and documents are solely the corporate obligations of the Funding Parties, and the Lessor (with respect to the Lease Participants) and the Company and the Lease Participants (with respect to the Lessor) agree to look solely to the Lease Participants or the Lessor, as applicable, for payment of all obligations, including, without limitation, any fees or other amounts due hereunder or thereunder, and claims arising out of or relating to any of the foregoing agreements and documents. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.20 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR TO DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER OPERATIVE DOCUMENT OR UNDER AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER OPERATIVE DOCUMENT, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

Section 11.21 Certain Acknowledgments of the Parties. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Agreement and the other Operative Documents have not been negotiated by the Lessor or any of the Lease Participants in the State of Alabama, (ii) the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Operative Documents shall take place at the office of the Lessor in Charlotte, North Carolina, or at the office of its counsel in Atlanta, GA, and (iii) in addition to the satisfaction of other conditions set forth in Section 6.01 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be effective until the Lessor has received at its office in Charlotte, North Carolina the documents described in the first sentence of Section 6.01.

Section 11.22 Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Original Investment Agreement, the terms of which survive, but only as amended and restated herein.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
