2. Assumption. Effective on the Assignment Effective Date and subject to Section 13.12(c) of the Loan Agreement, Assignee hereby accepts the foregoing assignment of, and hereby assumes from Assignor, the Assigned Rights and Obligations.

3. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on a date (the “Assignment Effective Date”) selected by Assignor, which shall be on or as soon as practicable after the execution and delivery of counterparts of this Agreement by Assignor, Assignee, Administrative Agent and Borrower. Assignor shall promptly notify Assignee, Administrative Agent and Borrower in writing of the Assignment Effective Date.

4. Payments on Assignment Effective Date. In consideration of the assignment by Assignor to Assignee, and the assumption by Assignee, of the Assigned Rights and Obligations, on the Assignment Effective Date Assignee shall pay to Assignor such amounts as are specified in any written agreement or exchange of letters between them.

5. Allocation and Payment of Interest and Fees.

(a) Administrative Agent shall pay to Assignee all interest and other amounts (including Fees, except as otherwise provided in the written agreement referred to in Section 4 above) not constituting principal that are paid by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents and are attributable to the Assigned Rights and Obligations (“Borrower Amounts”), that accrue on and after the Assignment Effective Date. If Assignor receives or collects any such Borrower Amounts, Assignor shall promptly pay them to Assignee.

(b) Administrative Agent shall pay to Assignor all Borrower Amounts that accrue before the Assignment Effective Date (or otherwise pursuant to the written agreement referred to in Section 4 above) when and as the same are paid by Administrative Agent to the other Lenders. If Assignee receives or collects any such Borrower Amounts, Assignee shall promptly pay such amounts to Assignor.

(c) Unless specifically assumed by Assignee, Assignor shall be responsible and liable for all reimbursable liabilities and costs and indemnification obligations which accrue under Section 12.12 of the Loan Agreement prior to the Assignment Effective Date, and such liability shall survive the Assignment Effective Date.

6. Administrative Agent Liability. Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any allocation or payment to either Assignor or Assignee subsequently determined to be erroneous, unless resulting from Administrative Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.

7. Representations and Warranties.

(a) Each of Assignor and Assignee represents and warrants to the other and to Administrative Agent as follows:

(iv) All approvals, authorizations or other actions by, or filings with, any Governmental Authority necessary for the validity or enforceability of its obligations under this Agreement have been made or obtained.

8. No Assignor Responsibility. Assignor makes no representation or warranty regarding, and assumes no responsibility to Assignee for:

(a) the execution (by any party other than Assignor), effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of the Loan Documents or any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made in the Loan Documents or in any financial or other written or oral statement, instrument, report, certificate or any other document made or furnished or made available by Assignor to Assignee or by or on behalf of any Loan Party to Assignor or Assignee in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby;

Assignor shall have no initial or continuing duty or responsibility to make any investigation of the financial condition, affairs or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties, in connection with the assignment of the Assigned Rights and Obligations or to provide Assignee with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the date hereof or at any time or times thereafter.

9. Assignee Bound by Loan Agreement. Effective on the Assignment Effective Date, Assignee (a) shall be deemed to be a party to the Loan Agreement and as such, shall be directly liable to Borrower for any failure by Assignee to comply with Assignee’s assumed obligations thereunder, including, without limitation, Assignee’s obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of the Loan in accordance with provisions of the Loan Agreement and be subject to Section 13.12(c) of the Loan Agreement, (b) agrees to be bound by the Loan Agreement to the same extent as it would have been if it had been an original Lender thereunder, (c) agrees to perform in accordance with their respective terms all of the obligations which are required under the Loan Documents to be performed by it as a Lender, and (d) agrees to maintain its status as an Eligible Assignee. Assignee appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

10. Assignor Released From Loan Agreement. Effective on the Assignment Effective Date, Assignor shall be released from the Assigned Rights and Obligations; provided, however, that Assignor shall retain all of its rights to indemnification under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents for any events, acts or omissions occurring before the Assignment Effective Date, and, to the extent not assumed by Assignee, Assignor shall continue to be responsible for the liabilities and obligations described in Section 5(c) of this Agreement.

11. New Notes. On or promptly after the Assignment Effective Date, Borrower, Administrative Agent, Assignor and Assignee shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes executed by the Borrower, dated the Assignment Effective Date and in the amount of the respective Pro Rata Shares of Assignor and Assignee in the original Loan amount, after giving effect to this Agreement, are issued to Assignor and Assignee, in exchange for the surrender by Assignor and Assignee to Borrower of any applicable outstanding Notes, marked “Exchanged”.
