Immediately upon each Assignee's making its processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Bank pro tanto.

Assignments and Participations Lender may sell or offer to sell the Loan or interests therein to one or more assignees or participants (“Lender’s Sale Right”).

Borrower shall not be responsible for any Costs incurred by Lender in connection with any transfer (via assignment or participation) of its interest in the Loan.
