Unless the Borrower has received forms or other documents reasonably satisfactory to it (and required by applicable law) indicating that payments hereunder are not subject to United States federal withholding tax, the Borrower will withhold taxes as required by law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

No such assignment shall release the Liquidity Provider from its obligations hereunder.
