Default Liabilities 11.1 The Parties agree and acknowledge that, in the event that a Party (the “Defaulting Party”) substantially violates any of the agreements hereunder or fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder substantially, it shall constitute a default under this Agreement (the “Default”). The non-defaulting party (the “Non-defaulting Party”) shall be entitled to request the Defaulting Party to rectify the Default or take remedial measures within a reasonable period. In the event that the Defaulting Party fails to rectify the Default or take remedial measures within a reasonable period or within ten (10) days after a written notice sent by the Non-defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party requesting for the rectification, and if the Defaulting Party is Party A, the Non-defaulting Party shall be entitled to determine, at its sole discretion, to: (1) terminate this Agreement and request the Defaulting Party to indemnify all losses incurred by the Non-defaulting Party, or (2) request the Defaulting Party to continue to perform its obligations hereunder and indemnify all losses incurred by the Non-defaulting Party; if the Defaulting Party is Party B, the Non-defaulting Party shall be entitled to request the Defaulting Party to continue to perform its obligations hereunder and to indemnify all losses incurred by the Non-defaulting Party.
11.2 The Parties agree and acknowledge that Party A shall not request to terminate this Agreement for any reasons under any circumstances, except otherwise required under the law or under this Agreement.

Other than any liability incident to such litigation or proceedings, no Loan Party has any material contingent liabilities not listed on Schedule 9.6 or permitted by Section 11.1.
Litigation and Contingent Obligations There is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Loans.

Calculation of Seniority For the purpose of this Article, "seniority" shall be defined as continuous employment at the university in positions within the bargaining unit. An authorized leave of absence or sabbatical, pursuant to Articles 15, Section C, 18 or 19 of this Agreement, shall not be deemed an interruption of continuous employment. For purposes of seniority calculation, time on a Sabbatical Leave pursuant to Article 15, Section C will be counted based on the ASF Member’s regular appointment as provided in this Subdivision. For purposes of this Section, a full-time ASF Member on a nine (9) to twelve (12) month appointment or a part time ASF Members on a seventy five percent (75%) time or greater appointment for twelve (12) months shall be considered to have accrued one (1) year of seniority. For other part time ASF Member and for first year full time ASF Members whose FTE is less than seventy five (75) percent, the number of months of seniority will be credited based on the FTE of the individual's appointment. If an ASF Member has an assignment in more than one department, program or service area, all seniority will be credited in the one in which the ASF Member is assigned the greatest percentage of time. If the assignment is split equally between more than one department, program or service area, then the President/designee will designate that one in which all seniority will be credited prior to the issuance of the subsequent seniority roster. If two (2) or more ASF Members have equal seniority, then those with greater length of service in permanent status shall have priority for retention. Should ASF Members still be equal in seniority, then the decision of which person to retain will be made on the basis of ASF Member competence and programmatic needs of the university as determined by the President. A seniority roster shall be posted by the President/designee on or before November 1 of each year, and a copy of such rosters shall be furnished to the Campus Association President. Grievances concerning the accuracy of the roster must be filed within thirty (30) calendar days of publication of the roster and must be limited to changes made and shown on the most recent roster. ASF Members on leave status at the time of posting of the seniority roster shall have thirty (30) calendar days after the end of such leave within which to file a grievance. The format of the seniority roster shall be the same for each university. The rosters shall contain all relevant information necessary to implement this Article, including a notification of any department, program or service area in which the ASF Member has served at least thirty-six (36) FTE months.
Contingent Liabilities Assume, guarantee, become liable as a surety, endorse, contingently agree to purchase, or otherwise be or become liable, directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to, by means of a maintenance agreement, an asset or stock purchase agreement, or any other agreement designed to ensure any creditor against loss), for or on account of the obligation of any person or entity, except by the endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of the Company’s business.

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Security prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company. The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any payment with respect to which Section 15.02 would be applicable.
Non-Payment of Other Debt Any default shall occur under the terms applicable to any Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary in an aggregate amount (for all such Debt so affected) exceeding $10,000,000 and such default shall (a) consist of the failure to pay such Debt when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, or (b) accelerate the maturity of such Debt or permit the holder or holders thereof, or any trustee or agent for such holder or holders, to cause such Debt to become due and payable (or require the Company or any Subsidiary to purchase or redeem such Debt) prior to its expressed maturity.
Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness on Subordination Provisions (a) Each Holder by accepting a Security of any series acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.
