Assignment of Contracts GSAM agrees to assign (or cause to be assigned) to GSRP or OpCo without recourse, representation or warranty (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement), all of GSAM’s or such Affiliate’s right, title and interest in and to, and GSRP agrees to assume, or cause OpCo to agree to assume, the obligations of GSAM or such Affiliate’s obligations under, each of the Contracts set forth on Section 6.18 of the GSRP Disclosure Letter (collectively the “Assigned Contracts”), pursuant to documentation (the “Assigned Contracts Documentation”) in form and substance consistent with this Section 6.18 and otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Parties. GSAM has made available, or caused to be made available, to GSRP true and correct copies of the Assigned Contacts. Except as provided below, GSAM shall remain responsible for paying and satisfying, and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless GSRP from, all Liabilities related to or arising from the Assigned Contracts, to the extent such Liabilities relate to or arise from the period prior to the Closing. GSRP shall be responsible for paying and satisfying, and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless GSAM from, all Liabilities related to or arising from the Assigned Contracts, to the extent such Liabilities relate to or arise from the period on or after the Closing. Notwithstanding the second preceding sentence, in the case of any Assigned Contract that prior to the Closing was for the benefit of the GSRP Entities, from and after the Closing GSRP shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless GSAM from, all Liabilities, related to or arising from such Assigned Contract, to the extent GSRP is required to do so under the Management Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, OpCo shall remain responsible for, and shall pay and discharge when due all Liabilities that constitute Company Expenses (as defined in the OpCo LLC Agreement) that were incurred prior to the Closing.
Termination of Contracts Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has sent or received any communication regarding termination of, or intent not to renew, any material contract or agreement referred to or described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus or filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and no such termination or non-renewal has been threatened by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by any other party to any such contract or agreement.
Status of Contracts Except as set forth in Schedule 5.17, each of the Seller Agreements constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the parties thereto and is in full force and effect and (except for those Seller Agreements which by their terms will expire prior to the Closing Date or are otherwise terminated prior to the Closing Date in accordance with the provisions hereof) may be transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and will continue in full force and effect thereafter, in each case without breaching the terms thereof or resulting in the forfeiture or impairment of any rights thereunder and without the consent, approval or act of, or the making of any filing with, any other party. Each Seller Party has fulfilled and performed in all material respects its obligations under each of the Seller Agreements, and each Seller Party is not in, or alleged to be in, material breach or default under, nor to the Knowledge of Seller is there or is there alleged to be any basis for termination of, any of the Seller Agreements. To the Knowledge of Seller, (i) no other party to any of the Seller Agreements has materially breached or defaulted thereunder, and (ii) no event has occurred and no condition or state of facts exists which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute such a default or breach by any Seller Party or by any such other party. No Seller Party is currently renegotiating any of the Seller Agreements or paying liquidated damages in lieu of performance thereunder. Complete and correct copies of each of the Seller Agreements have heretofore been made available to Buyer by Seller.
Assignment of Contracts and Rights Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any Acquired Lease, Permit or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof, without the consent of any applicable third party (including any Governmental Entity), would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof, a violation of Law or would in any way adversely affect the rights of Purchaser Sub (as assignee of the Company) or the Company (as applicable). Subject to Section 6.2, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such Purchased Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to Purchaser Sub as Purchaser Sub may request; provided, that any costs and expenses arising therefrom or in connection therewith should be borne by the Parties in accordance with Section 2.2(e). If, on the Closing Date (or the applicable Subsequent Closing Date), any such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted transfer or assignment thereof would be ineffective, a violation of Law or would adversely affect the rights of Purchaser Sub (as assignee of the Company) thereto or thereunder so that Purchaser Sub would not in fact receive all such rights, the Company and Purchaser Sub will, subject to Section 6.2(a), cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement under which Purchaser Sub would, in compliance with Law, obtain the benefits and assume the obligations and bear the economic burdens associated with the Purchased Asset, claim, right or benefit in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to Purchaser Sub, or under which the Company would enforce, for the benefit of Purchaser Sub, and at the expense of Purchaser Sub, any and all of its rights against a third party thereto (including any Governmental Entity) associated with such Purchased Asset, claim, right or benefit, and the Company would promptly pay to Purchaser Sub when received all monies received by them under any Purchased Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder. To the extent that (i) any Acquired Leases cannot be assigned or transferred to Purchaser Sub as set forth in this Section 1.5 and (ii) Purchaser Sub requests that the Company subleases such Acquired Leases to Purchaser Sub, Purchaser Sub and the Company will enter into individual subleases for each of such Acquired Leases (as opposed to a “master” sublease covering all such Acquired Leases) on a fully net basis and on such terms as will generally confer to Purchaser Sub all of the Company’s rights under such Acquired Lease.
Assignment of Contract A. Unless expressly agreed to elsewhere in the Contract, no assignment by a party hereto of any rights under or interests in the Contract will be binding on another party hereto without the written consent of the party sought to be bound; and, specifically but without limitation, money that may become due and money that is due may not be assigned without such consent (except to the extent that the effect of this restriction may be limited by law), and unless specifically stated to the contrary in any written consent to an assignment, no assignment will release or discharge the assignor from any duty or responsibility under the Contract Documents.

(ii) the Administrator shall remain responsible for the performance of the obligations of the Administrator under this Agreement;
(iii) the performance or non-performance or the manner of performance of any sub-contractor or delegate of any of the Services shall not affect the Administrator's obligations under this Agreement;

(v) the Security Trustee shall have no liability for any act or omission of the sub-contractor or delegate and shall have no responsibility for monitoring or investigating the suitability of any such sub-contractor or delegate.
