Maintenance of Corporate Separateness Holdings will, and will ------------------------------------- cause each of its Subsidiaries to, satisfy customary corporate formalities, including the maintenance of corporate records. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall make any payment to a creditor of Holdings (other than a Guaranteed Creditor pursuant to any Credit Document or an Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement entered into with any such Guaranteed Creditor) in respect of any liability of Holdings, and no bank account of Holdings shall be commingled with any bank account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. Any financial statements distributed to any creditors of Holdings shall, to the extent permitted by GAAP, clearly establish the corporate separateness of Holdings from the Borrower and each of the Borrower's Subsidiaries. Finally, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action, or conduct its affairs in a manner, which is likely to result in the corporate existence of Holdings on the one hand and of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower on the other hand being ignored, or in the assets and liabilities of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower being substantively consolidated with those of Holdings in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding.
