Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders (a) Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

(b) Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:
(i) has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and
(ii) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.
(c) Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to:
(i) accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 24; or
(ii) support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.
Notice and Effect of Material Events The Company will immediately notify each Initial Purchaser, and confirm such notice in writing, of (x) any filing made by the Company of information relating to the offering of the Securities with any securities exchange or any other regulatory body in the United States or any other jurisdiction, and (y) prior to the completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers as evidenced by a notice in writing from the Initial Purchasers to the Company, any material changes in or affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries which (i) make any statement in the Final Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented) false or misleading or (ii) are not disclosed in the Final Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented). In such event or if during such time any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary, in the reasonable opinion of any of the Company, its counsel, the Initial Purchasers or counsel for the Initial Purchasers, to amend or supplement the Final Offering Memorandum in order that the Final Offering Memorandum not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, the Company will forthwith amend or supplement the Final Offering Memorandum by preparing and furnishing to each Initial Purchaser an amendment or amendments of, or a supplement or supplements to, the Final Offering Memorandum (in form and substance satisfactory in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Initial Purchasers) so that, as so amended or supplemented, the Final Offering Memorandum will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a Subsequent Purchaser, not misleading.

If any Party is in material breach of the terms hereof, any other Party, provided that it is in substantial compliance with the terms of this Agreement, may terminate this Agreement on notice to all other Parties. Notwithstanding anything herein, the Parties agree that the Court’s decision as to the amount of the Illinois Fee Award and Ohio Fee Award to Class Counsel set forth above or the incentive award to the Class Representatives, regardless of the amounts awarded, shall not prevent the Agreement from becoming effective, nor shall it be grounds for termination of the Agreement.

In such event, any Final Approval Order or other order entered by the Court in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be treated as vacated, nunc pro tunc, and the Parties shall be returned to the status quo ante with respect to the Actions as if this Agreement had never been entered into, including Defendant’s right to seek to compel arbitration as to the Plaintiffs named in the Second Amended Complaint.
9.4. In the event the Settlement is terminated or fails to become effective for any reason, the Illinois Settlement Fund and Ohio Settlement Fund, together with any earnings thereon at the same rate as earned, less any taxes paid or due, less Settlement Administrative Expenses actually incurred and paid or payable from the Settlement Fund, shall be returned to Defendant or its Insurer within thirty (30) calendar days after written notification of such event in accordance with instructions provided by Defendant’s Counsel to the Settlement Administrator.
Effect of Benchmark Transition Event (i) If the Calculation Agent determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time (as defined below) in respect of any determination of the Benchmark (as defined below) on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Subordinated Notes during the relevant Floating Interest Period in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates.
(ii) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Company will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time.
(iii) Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company or by the Calculation Agent pursuant to the benchmark transition provisions set forth herein, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date, and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection:
(1) will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error;
(2) if made by the Company, will be made in the Company’s sole discretion;

Absent such litigation, any determination by any Reviewing Party shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and Indemnitee.
Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent Denial or Withdrawal The Participant’s participation in the Plan and the Participant’s grant of consent is purely voluntary. The Participant may deny or withdraw his or her consent at any time. If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant withdraws his or her consent, the Participant cannot participate in the Plan. This would not affect the Participant’s salary as an employee or his or her career; the Participant would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.
Mitigation; Exclusivity of Benefits (a) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any benefits hereunder by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any such benefits be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer after the Date of Termination or otherwise.
(b) The specific arrangements referred to herein are not intended to exclude any other benefits which may be available to the Executive upon a termination of employment with the Employers pursuant to employee benefit plans of the Employers or otherwise.
Automatic Renewal Limitation for TIPS Sales No TIPS Sale may incorporate an automatic renewal clause that exceeds month to month terms with which the TIPS Member must comply. All renewal terms incorporated into a TIPS Sale Supplemental Agreement shall only be valid and enforceable when Vendor received written confirmation of acceptance of the renewal term from the TIPS Member for the specific renewal term. The purpose of this clause is to avoid a TIPS Member inadvertently renewing an Agreement during a period in which the governing body of the TIPS Member has not properly appropriated and budgeted the funds to satisfy the Agreement renewal. Any TIPS Sale Supplemental Agreement containing an “Automatic Renewal” clause that conflicts with these terms is rendered void and unenforceable.
Payments Following a Sequential Pay Event Payments of interest and principal shall be made to the Noteholders in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement; provided, if a Sequential Pay Event, as determined by the applicable Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard and as set forth in the Servicing Agreement, shall have occurred and be continuing, all amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof (including without limitation amounts received by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of Advances), whether received in the form of monthly payments, any operating income from or any proceeds from the sale or distribution of any REO Property, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to the extent permitted by the REMIC Provisions), but excluding (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents to continue to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable to any Servicer, Operating Advisor, Certificate Administrator or Trustee with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) and distributed by the Servicer for payment in the following order of priority without duplication (and payments shall be made at such times as are set forth in the Servicing Agreement):

(f) sixth, to the Note B Holder in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on the Note B Principal Balance at the Net Note B Rate,
(g) seventh, to the Note B Holder, until the Note B Principal Balance has been reduced to zero;
(h) eighth, to the Note B Holder in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Percentage Interest of such Note, multiplied by (ii) the Note B Relative Spread, multiplied by (iii) any Prepayment Premium paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower;
