Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights The Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto and the Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on any acts or omissions of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the administration of the Obligations, any guarantee or other liability in respect thereof or any security for the Obligations or this Guarantee. When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Borrower or any other guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other guarantor or any release of the Borrower or such other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantor of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
Termination and Waiver of Rights of First Refusal The rights of first refusal established by this Section 4 shall not apply to, and shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the Company’s Initial Offering or (ii) an Acquisition. Notwithstanding Section 5.5 hereof, the rights of first refusal established by this Section 4 may be amended, or any provision waived with and only with the written consent of the Company and the Major Investors holding a majority of the Registrable Securities held by all Major Investors, or as permitted by Section 5.5.
Amendment; Resignation This Agreement may be altered or amended only with the written consent of the parties hereto. The Escrow Agent (and any successor escrow agent) at any time may be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder by the delivery to it of a notice of termination signed by the Company, or at any time the Escrow Agent may resign by giving written notice to such effect to the Issuer. Upon any such termination or resignation, the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrowed Amounts or the Fund to any successor escrow agent jointly designated by the other parties hereto in writing, or to any court of competent jurisdiction if no such successor escrow agent is agreed upon, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall be discharged of and from any and all further obligations arising in connection with this Escrow Agreement. The termination of services or resignation of the Escrow Agent shall take effect on the earlier of (i) the appointment of a successor (including a court of competent jurisdiction) or (ii) the day that is 30 days after the date of delivery: (A) to the Escrow Agent of the other parties’ notice of termination or (B) to the other parties hereto of the Escrow Agent’s written notice of resignation. If at that time the Escrow Agent has not received a designation of successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility after that time shall be to keep the Escrowed Amounts or the Fund safe until receipt of a designation of a successor escrow agent or a joint written disposition instruction by the other parties hereto or an enforceable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the provisions of Section 8 hereof, the resigning Escrow Agent shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Issuer for any expenses incurred in connection with its resignation, transfer of the Fund to a successor escrow agent or distribution of the Fund pursuant to this Section 6.
Certification of Funds; Budget and Fiscal Provisions; Termination in the Event of Non-Appropriation This Agreement is subject to the budget and fiscal provisions of the City’s Charter. Charges will accrue only after prior written authorization certified by the Controller, and the amount of City’s obligation hereunder shall not at any time exceed the amount certified for the purpose and period stated in such advance authorization. This Agreement will terminate without penalty, liability or expense of any kind to City at the end of any fiscal year if funds are not appropriated for the next succeeding fiscal year. If funds are appropriated for a portion of the fiscal year, this Agreement will terminate, without penalty, liability or expense of any kind at the end of the term for which funds are appropriated. City has no obligation to make appropriations for this Agreement in lieu of appropriations for new or other agreements. City budget decisions are subject to the discretion of the Mayor and the Board of Supervisors. Contractor’s assumption of risk of possible non-appropriation is part of the consideration for this Agreement. THIS SECTION CONTROLS AGAINST ANY AND ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Upon receipt of such instructions, the Agents will forthwith suspend solicitation until such time as NIB has advised them that such solicitation may be resumed. In the event that at the time NIB suspends solicitation of purchases there shall be any orders outstanding for settlement, NIB will promptly advise the Agents and the Fiscal Agent whether such orders may be settled and whether copies of the Prospectus, together with the appropriate Pricing Supplement, or the 144A Prospectus, as applicable, as in effect at the time of the suspension may be delivered in connection with the settlement of such orders. NIB will have the sole responsibility for such decision and for any arrangements that may be made in the event that NIB determines that such orders may not be settled or that copies of such Prospectus or 144A Prospectus may not be so delivered. In the case of the Registered Notes only, if NIB decides to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus it will promptly advise the Agents and furnish the Agents with the proposed amendment or supplement and with such certificates and opinions as are required, all to the extent required by and in accordance with the terms of the Selling Agency Agreement. In the case of Registered Notes only, subject to the provisions of the Selling Agency Agreement, NIB may file with the Commission any supplement to the Prospectus relating to the Notes; NIB will provide the Agents and the Fiscal Agent with copies of any such supplement, and confirm to the Agents that such supplement has been filed with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b). In the case of 144A Notes only, if NIB decides to amend or supplement a 144A Prospectus, it will promptly advise the Agents and furnish the Agents with the proposed amendment or supplement and with such certificates and opinions as are required, all to the extent required by and in accordance with the terms of the Selling Agency Agreement.
