SECTION 8. PAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES.
Section 8.1. Maturity. As provided therein, the entire unpaid principal balance of the Notes shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date thereof.
Section 8.2. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. The Issuers may, at their option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. The Issuers will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than ten days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment unless the Obligors and the Required Holders agree to another time period pursuant to Section 17. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Issuers shall deliver to each
holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.
Section 8.3. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.
Section 8.4. Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Issuers shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Issuers and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.
Section 8.5. Purchase of Notes. No Obligor will, nor will they permit any Affiliate which either of them directly or indirectly controls to, purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Parent Guarantor, either Issuer or an Affiliate which any of them directly or indirectly controls pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions, which offer shall remain outstanding for a reasonable period of time (not to be less than 15 days); provided, that any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer. If the holders of more than 50% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept any such offer made pursuant to the foregoing subpart (b), the Issuers shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least 5 Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to purchase made pursuant to subpart (b) of this Section 8.5 shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder. The Issuers will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by them or any Affiliate which any Obligor directly or indirectly controls pursuant to any payment or prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.
Section 8.6. Make-Whole Amount.
“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:
“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.
“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.
“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury xxxx quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.
If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.
“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining
Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 12.1.
“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.
Section 8.7. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) subject to clause (y), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; and (y) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on the Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.
Section 8.8. Change in Control Prepayment Offer.
(a) Promptly upon becoming aware that a Change in Control has occurred (and in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter), the Obligors shall give written notice (the “Change in Control Notice”) of such fact to all holders of the Notes. The Change in Control Notice shall (i) describe the facts and circumstances of such Change in Control in reasonable detail, (ii) refer to this Section 8.8 and the rights of the holders hereunder and (iii) contain an offer by the Issuers to prepay the entire unpaid principal amount of Notes held by each holder at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes at par (without any make-whole, premium, penalty or Make-Whole Amount whatsoever or howsoever described), together with interest accrued thereon to the prepayment date selected by the Issuers, which prepayment shall be on a date specified in the Change in Control Notice, which date shall be a Business Day not less than 30 nor more than 60 days after such Change in Control Notice is given should any agreement to the contrary with respect to such prepayment date not be reached among the Issuers and each of the holders of the Notes (if no prepayment date is set forth in the Change in Control Notice or otherwise agreed between the Issuers and the holders of Notes, the
prepayment date shall be the 45th day following the date such Change of Control Notice is given).
(b) A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.8 by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Issuers not more than 25 days after the date of the written offer notice referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 8.8. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be deemed to constitute rejection of such offer by such holder.
(c) On the prepayment date specified in the Change in Control Notice, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes held by each holder of Notes which has accepted such prepayment offer, together with interest accrued thereon to the prepayment date (without any make-whole, premium, penalty or Make-Whole Amount whatsoever or howsoever described), shall become due and payable.
Section 8.9. Prepayment in Connection with Asset Dispositions.
(a) If the Issuers are required to offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to Section 9.8(b), the Obligors shall give written notice (the “Disposition Prepayment Notice”) of such fact to all holders of the Notes. The Disposition Prepayment Notice shall (i) describe the facts and circumstances of such Disposition and shall identify the Indebtedness to be repaid with the Proceeds thereof in reasonable detail, (ii) refer to this Section 8.9 and the rights of the holders hereunder and (iii) contain (and shall constitute) an offer by the Issuers to prepay a principal amount of each Note equal to its ratable share of the Pro Rata Share at par (without any make-whole, premium, penalty or Make-Whole Amount whatsoever or howsoever described), together with interest accrued thereon to the prepayment date selected by the Issuers, which prepayment shall be on a date specified in the Disposition Prepayment Notice, which date shall be a Business Day not less than 30 nor more than 60 days after such Disposition Prepayment Notice is given should any agreement to the contrary with respect to such payment date not be reached among the Issuers and each of the holders of the Notes that accepts the Issuers’ prepayment offer.
(b) A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.9 by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Issuers not more than 30 days after the date of the written offer notice referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 8.9. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.9 shall be deemed to constitute rejection of such offer by such holder.
(c) On the prepayment date specified in the Disposition Prepayment Notice, the principal amount of Notes for which the Issuers’ prepayment offer has been accepted equal to the ratable share of the Pro Rata Share for each such Note, together with interest accrued thereon to the prepayment date (without any make-whole, premium, penalty or Make-Whole Amount whatsoever or howsoever described), shall become due and payable.

Section 9.2. Insurance. Each Obligor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated.
Section 9.3. Maintenance of Properties.

and claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Subject to Section 9.7(a), at the election of the Obligors and by written notice to each holder of Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantor may be discharged from all of its obligations and liabilities under its Subsidiary Guaranty and shall be automatically released from its obligations thereunder without the need for the execution or delivery of any other document by the holders, provided that (i) if such Subsidiary Guarantor is a guarantor or is otherwise liable for or in respect of any Indebtedness under any Material Credit Facility, then such Subsidiary Guarantor has been released and discharged (or will be released and discharged concurrently with the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guaranty) from any obligation for or in respect of any Indebtedness under such Material Credit Facility, (ii) at the time of, and after giving effect to, such release and discharge, no Default or Event of Default shall be existing, (iii) no amount is then due and payable under its Subsidiary Guaranty, (iv) if in connection with such Subsidiary Guarantor being released and discharged under any Material Credit Facility, any fee or other form of consideration is given to any holder of Indebtedness under such Material Credit Facility for such release, the holders of the Notes shall receive equivalent consideration (on a pro rata basis) substantially concurrently therewith and (v) each holder shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying as to the matters set forth in clauses (i) through (iv). In the event of any such release, for purposes of Section 10.6 and Section 10.12, all Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to have been incurred concurrently with such release.
Section 9.8. Prepayment of Indebtedness. If a proposed sale, encumbrance or other transfer described in Section 7.1(g) (collectively, a “Disposition”) would otherwise result in a Default or Event of Default absent a prepayment pursuant to this Section 9.8, the Issuers shall (a) apply the proceeds of such Disposition (together with any such additional amounts as may be required so that no Default or Event of Default would otherwise occur, collectively, the “Proceeds”) to prepay Indebtedness so that no Default or Event of Default would exist and (b) to the extent the holders of the Notes have not, in accordance with the foregoing subpart (a),
received a prepayment of Indebtedness under the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2 representing the Pro Rata Share, offer to prepay the Notes as set forth in Section 8.9.
Section 9.9. Most Favored Lender Provision.

Thereupon, unless waived in writing by the Required Holders within ten days of the holders’ receipt of such notice, such Additional Covenant shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as if set forth fully herein, effective (a) in the case of any Additional Covenant effective on the date of the First Closing, as of the date of the First Closing, and (b) in the case of any Additional Covenant effective after the date of the First Closing, as of the date when such Additional Covenant became effective under the relevant Material Credit Facility. Thereafter, upon the request of any holder of a Note, the Obligors shall at their expense enter into any additional agreement or amendment to this Agreement reasonably requested by such holder evidencing any of the foregoing. Any Additional Covenant incorporated into this Agreement pursuant to this provision, (a) shall remain unchanged herein notwithstanding any temporary waiver of such Additional Covenant under the applicable Material Credit Facility, (b) shall be deemed automatically amended herein to reflect any subsequent amendments agreed and implemented in relation to such Additional Covenant under the applicable Material Credit Facility and (c) shall be deemed deleted from this Agreement at such time as such Additional Covenant is deleted or otherwise removed from or is no longer in effect under or pursuant to the applicable Material Credit Facility or such applicable Material Credit Facility is terminated and no amounts are outstanding thereunder, provided in each case that any consideration paid or provided to any holder of Indebtedness under the applicable Material Credit Facility in connection with an event contemplated by subpart (b) or (c) above is paid to each holder of Notes at the same time and on equivalent terms; and provided further that no Additional Covenant shall be so deemed automatically amended to be less beneficial to the holders of Notes or deleted during any time that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

any kind or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate (other than the Parent Guarantor, the Issuers or another Subsidiary), except (a) in the ordinary course of business at prices and on terms and conditions not less favorable to such Obligor or such Subsidiary than could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from unrelated third parties and (b) any Restricted Payment permitted by Section 10.8.
Section 10.2. Merger, Consolidation, Etc.
(a) No Obligor will, nor will any Obligor permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate with or merge with any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of transactions to any Person unless:
(i) in the case of any such transaction involving an Obligor, the successor formed by such consolidation or the survivor of such merger or the Person that acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of such Obligor as an entirety, as the case may be, shall be a solvent corporation, limited liability company or, in the case of a successor to either Issuer only, a limited partnership, organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (including the District of Columbia), and, if such Obligor, as the case may be, is not such corporation or limited liability company (other than in the case of a transaction between the Issuers only), (x) such corporation or limited liability company shall have executed and delivered to each holder of any Notes its assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of (1) this Agreement and the Notes, in the case of the Issuers, and (2) this Agreement, in the case of the Parent Guarantor, and (y) such corporation or limited liability company shall have caused to be delivered to each holder of any Notes an opinion of nationally recognized independent counsel, or other independent counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, to the effect that all agreements or instruments effecting such assumption are enforceable in accordance with their terms and comply with the terms hereof;

No such conveyance, transfer or lease of substantially all of the assets of the Parent Guarantor, either Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have the effect of releasing the Parent Guarantor, such Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, or any successor corporation or limited liability company that shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Section 10.2 from its liability under (x) this Agreement or the Notes, in the case of such Issuer, (y) this Agreement, in the case of the Parent Guarantor, and (z) its Subsidiary Guaranty, in the case of such Subsidiary Guarantor; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.2 or Section 10.7, an Issuer may (i) merge into or consolidate with the other Issuer so long as an Issuer is the surviving entity or (ii) transfer all of its assets (including all Equity Interests held by such Issuer in each of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries) to the other Issuer, and thereafter, to the extent such Issuer has transferred all of its assets, such transferring Issuer may liquidate and/or dissolve.
Section 10.3. Line of Business. No Obligor will, nor will any Obligor permit any Subsidiary to, engage in any business if, as a result, the general nature of the business in which the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, would then be engaged would be substantially changed from the general nature of the business in which the Parent Guarantor and

provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Obligor will, nor will any Obligor permit any Subsidiary to, secure pursuant to Section 10.5(c) or Section 10.5(d) any Indebtedness outstanding under or pursuant to any Material Credit Facility unless and until the Notes (and any guaranty delivered in connection therewith) shall concurrently be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders in substance and in form, including, without limitation, an intercreditor agreement and opinions of counsel to such Obligor and/or any such Subsidiary, as the case may be, from counsel that is reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.5, the failure of any Unencumbered Property to comply with the requirements set forth in the definition of “Unencumbered Property” shall result in such Unencumbered Property’s no longer qualifying as Unencumbered Property under this Agreement, but such disqualification shall not by itself constitute a Default or Event of Default, unless such non-qualification otherwise constitutes or results in a Default or Event of Default.

SECTION 12. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC.
Section 12.1. Acceleration.
(a) If an Event of Default with respect to an Obligor described in Section 11(g) or (h) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 11(g) or described in clause (vi) of Section 11(g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of Section 11(g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable.
(b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may at any time at their option, by notice or notices to the Issuers, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.
(c) If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) or (b) has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Issuers, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.
Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited to, interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate, if applicable) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Obligors acknowledge, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Issuers (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Issuers in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.
Section 12.2. Other Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note or any Subsidiary Guaranty, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.
Section 12.3. Rescission. At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (c), the Required Holders, by written notice to the Issuers, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Issuers have paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by
applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Issuers nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes.

Section 12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Obligors under Section 15, the Obligors will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.
SECTION 13. REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES.
Section 13.1. Registration of Notes. The Issuers shall keep at their principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. If any holder of one or more Notes is a nominee, then (a) the name and address of the beneficial owner of such Note or Notes shall also be registered in such register as an owner and holder thereof and (b) at any such beneficial owner’s option, either such beneficial owner or its nominee may execute any amendment, waiver or consent pursuant to this Agreement. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person(s) in whose name any Note(s) shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Issuers shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Issuers shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes.
Section 13.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes; No Transfers to Competitors.
(a) Upon surrender of any Note to the Issuers at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)), for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten Business Days thereafter, the Issuers shall execute and deliver, at the Issuers’ expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Schedule 1(a). Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $500,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.
(b) Without limiting the foregoing, each Purchaser and each subsequent holder of any Note severally agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, resell any Notes purchased by it to a Person which is a Competitor (it being understood that such Purchaser shall advise any broker or intermediary acting on its behalf that such resale to a Competitor is limited hereby). The Issuers shall not be required to recognize any sale or other transfer of a Note to a Competitor and no such transfer shall confer any rights hereunder upon such transferee.
Section 13.3. Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Issuers at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and
(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to them (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or
(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,
within ten Business Days thereafter, the Issuers at their own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.
SECTION 14. PAYMENTS ON NOTES.
Section 14.1. Place of Payment. Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York, New York at the principal office of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in such jurisdiction. The Issuers may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal offices of the Issuers in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.
Section 14.2. Home Office Payment. So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Issuers will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest and all other amounts becoming due hereunder by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Issuers in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Issuers made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Issuers at their principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Issuers pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Issuers in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Issuers will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 14.2.
SECTION 15. EXPENSES, ETC.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Obligors will pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel for all of the holders of the Notes and, if reasonably required by the Required Holders, local or other counsel for all of the holders of the Notes) incurred by the Purchasers and each other holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, (b) the costs and expenses, including one financial advisor’s fees for all of the holders of the Notes, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of any Obligor or any Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes and any Subsidiary Guaranty and (c) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial filing of this Agreement and all related documents and financial information with the SVO provided, that such costs and expenses under this clause (c) shall not exceed $4,250. The Obligors will pay, and will save each Purchaser and each other holder of a Note harmless from, (i) all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders (other than those, if any, retained by a Purchaser or other holder in connection with its purchase of the Notes) and (ii) any and all wire transfer fees that any bank deducts from any payment under such Note to such holder or otherwise charges to a holder of a Note with respect to a payment under such Note.
Section 15.2. Survival. The obligations of the Obligors under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement.
SECTION 16. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.
All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of any Obligor pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of such Obligor under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and any Subsidiary Guaranty embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Obligors and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.
SECTION 17. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes or any Subsidiary Guaranty. The Obligors will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 17 or any Subsidiary Guaranty to each holder of a Note promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between any Obligor and any Purchaser or holder of a Note and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or any Subsidiary Guaranty shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any Purchaser or holder of such Note.
Section 17.4. Notes Held by Issuers, etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in any Subsidiary Guaranty or the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the
holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by any Obligor or any of its Affiliates or any Competitor shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

Each Obligor agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit any Obligor or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.
SECTION 20. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of any Obligor or any Subsidiary in connection with
the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by any Obligor or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its auditors, financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20 and so long as such Person is not a Competitor), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any Security of an Obligor (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20 and so long as such Person is not a Competitor), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes, this Agreement or any Subsidiary Guaranty. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by an Obligor in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Obligors embodying this Section 20.
In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Obligors or their Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 20, this Section 20 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Obligors, this Section 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking.
SECTION 21. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.
Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a “Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Issuers, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Issuers of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.
SECTION 22. MISCELLANEOUS.
Section 22.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP and (ii) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP; provided that, if the Parent Guarantor notifies the holders of the Notes that the Parent Guarantor requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Required Holders notify the Parent Guarantor that the Required Holders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith. All financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 000-00-00 — Fair Value Option, International Accounting Standard 39 — Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein.
Section 22.3. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 22.4. Construction, etc. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.
Section 22.5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.
Section 22.6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.
Section 22.7. Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) Each Obligor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Obligor irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
(b) Each Obligor consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.7(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. Each Obligor agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it.

(d) The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 22.8. FATCA Information. By acceptance of any Note, the holder of such Note agrees that such holder will from time to time with reasonable promptness duly complete and deliver to or as reasonably directed by the Issuers or any of their agents from time to time (i) in the case of any such holder that is a U.S. Person, such holder’s United States tax identification number or other forms reasonably requested by the Issuers necessary to establish such holder’s status as a U.S. Person under FATCA and as may otherwise be necessary for the Issuers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and (ii) in the case of any such holder that is not a U.S. Person, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation as may be necessary for the Issuers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such holder has complied with such holder’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount (if any) to deduct and withhold from any such payment made to such holder.

SECTION 23. PARENT GUARANTEE.
Section 23.1. Parent Guarantee. The Parent Guarantor hereby irrevocably absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the holders from time to time of the Notes: (a) the full and prompt payment of the principal of all of the Notes and of the interest thereon at the rates therein stipulated (including interest accruing or becoming owing both prior to and subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor) and the Make-Whole Amounts (if any), and all other amounts payable by the Issuers under this Agreement in each case when and as the same shall become due and
payable, whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration, or otherwise (including (to the extent legally enforceable) interest due on overdue payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount (if any) or interest at the rates set forth in the Notes), (b) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Issuers of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or observed by the Issuers under the terms of the Notes and this Agreement, and (c) the full and prompt payment, upon demand by any holder of the Notes, of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and such expenses, if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any right or privilege under the Notes or this Agreement, including, without limitation, in any consultation or action in connection therewith, and in each and every case irrespective of the validity, regularity, or enforcement of any of the Notes or this Agreement or any of the terms thereof or of any other like circumstance or circumstances. The guarantee herein provided for is a guarantee of immediate and timely payment and shall not be deemed to be a guarantee only of the collectibility and in consequence thereof each holder of the Notes may proceed directly against the Parent Guarantor.
Section 23.2. Obligations Absolute and Unconditional. The obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Section 23 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect until the entire principal, interest and Make-Whole Amount (if any) on the Notes and all other sums due pursuant to Section 23.1 shall have been indefeasibly paid and such obligations shall not be affected, modified or impaired upon the happening from time to time of any event, including, without limitation, any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of the Parent Guarantor:
(a) the power or authority or the lack of power or authority of either Issuer to issue the Notes or to execute and deliver this Agreement, and irrespective of the validity of the Notes or this Agreement or of any defense whatsoever that either Issuer may or might have to the payment of the Notes (principal, interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any), or to the performance or observance of any of the provisions or conditions of this Agreement, or the existence or continuance of either Issuer as a legal entity;
(b) any failure to present the Notes for payment or to demand payment thereof, or to give either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor notice of dishonor for non-payment of the Notes, when and as the same may become due and payable, or notice of any failure on the part of either Issuer to do any act or thing or to perform or to keep any covenant or agreement by it to be done, kept or performed under the terms of the Notes or this Agreement;
(c) the acceptance of any security or any guaranty, the advance of additional money to either Issuer, any extension of the obligation of the Notes, either indefinitely or for any period of time, or any other modification in the obligation of the Notes, of this Agreement or of either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor thereon, or in connection therewith, or any sale, release, substitution or exchange of any security;
(d) any act or failure to act with regard to the Notes or this Agreement or anything which might vary the risk of the Parent Guarantor;
(e) any action taken under this Agreement in the exercise of any right or power thereby conferred or any failure or omission on the part of any holder of any Note to first enforce any right or security given under this Agreement or any failure or omission on the part of any holder of any of the Notes to first enforce any right against either Issuer;
(f) the waiver, compromise, settlement (other than payment in full in cash by the Issuers), release or termination of any or all of the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Issuers contained in this Agreement or the payment, performance or observance thereof;
(g) the failure to give notice to the Issuers or the Parent Guarantor of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under the terms and provisions of this Agreement;
(h) the extension of the time for payment of any principal of, or interest (or Make-Whole Amount, if any) on, any Note owing or payable on such Note or of the time of or for performance of any obligations, covenants or agreements under or arising out of this Agreement or the extension or the renewal of any thereof;
(i) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any obligation, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or the Notes;
(j) any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of the holders of the Notes to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred on the holders of the Notes in this Agreement or the Notes or any other act or acts on the part of the holders from time to time of the Notes;
(k) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets, marshalling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization or arrangement under bankruptcy or similar laws, composition with creditors or readjustment of, or other similar procedures affecting either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any of the assets of any of them, or any allegation or contest of the validity of this Agreement or the disaffirmance of this Agreement in any such proceeding (it being understood that the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment made with respect to the Notes is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any holder of the Notes upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor or any other guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made);
(l) any event or action that would, in the absence of this clause, result in the release or discharge by operation of law of the Parent Guarantor from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement;
(m) the invalidity or unenforceability of the Notes or this Agreement;
(n) the invalidity or unenforceability of the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce such obligations of the Parent Guarantor, any waiver or consent by the Parent Guarantor with respect to any of the provisions hereof or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a discharge or defense by the Parent Guarantor, including, without limitation, any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations of the Parent Guarantor with respect to this Agreement or of notice thereof; or any suit or other action brought by any shareholder or creditor of, or by, the Parent Guarantor or any other Person, for any reason, including, without limitation, any suit or action in any way attacking or involving any issue, matter or thing in respect of this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement;
(o) the default or failure of the Parent Guarantor or either Issuer fully to perform any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement;
(p) the impossibility or illegality of performance on the part of either Issuer or any other Person of its obligations under the Notes, this Agreement or any other instruments;
(q) in respect of either Issuer or any other Person, any change of circumstances, whether or not foreseen or foreseeable, whether or not imputable to such Issuer or any other Person, or other impossibility of performance through fire, explosion, accident, labor disturbance, floods, droughts, embargoes, wars (whether or not declared), civil commotions, acts of God or the public enemy, delays or failure of suppliers or carriers, inability to obtain materials, action of any federal or state regulatory body or agency, change of law or any other causes affecting performance, or other force majeure, whether or not beyond the control of either Issuer or any other Person and whether or not of the kind hereinbefore specified;
(r) any attachment, claim, demand, charge, Lien, order, process, encumbrance or any other happening or event or reason, similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, or any withholding or diminution at the source, by reason of any taxes, assessments, expenses, indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of any character, foreseen or unforeseen, and whether or not valid, incurred by or against any Person, or any claims, demands, charges or Liens of any nature, foreseen or unforeseen, incurred by any Person, or against any sums payable under this Agreement so that such sums would be rendered inadequate or would be unavailable to make the payments herein provided;
(s) the failure of the Parent Guarantor to receive any benefit or consideration from or as a result of its execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement;
(t) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Parent Guarantor or either Issuer in respect of the obligations of the Parent Guarantor or such Issuer under this Agreement;
(u) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance by either Issuer or any other Person of any obligations of any kind or character whatsoever
of such Issuer or such other Person (including, without limitation, the obligations and undertakings of such Issuer or such other Person under the Notes or this Agreement); or
(v) any order, judgment, decree, ruling or regulation (whether or not valid) of any court of any nation or of any political subdivision thereof or any body, agency, department, official or administrative or regulatory agency of any thereof or any other action, happening, event or reason whatsoever which shall delay, interfere with, hinder or prevent, or in any way adversely affect, the performance by any party of its respective obligations under the Notes, this Agreement or any instrument relating thereto;
provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this paragraph that the obligations of the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the payment to the holders thereof of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount (if any) and interest on the Notes, and of all other sums due and owing to the holders of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement, and then only to the extent of such payments. Without limiting any of the other terms or provisions hereof, it is understood and agreed that in order to hold the Parent Guarantor liable hereunder, there shall be no obligation on the part of any holder of any Note to resort, in any manner or form, for payment, to either Issuer or to any other Person or to the properties or estates of any of the foregoing. All rights of the holder of any Note pursuant thereto or to this Agreement may be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time and shall be considered to be transferred or assigned upon the transfer of such Note, whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Parent Guarantor or either Issuer. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Issuers shall default under the terms of the Notes or this Agreement and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Issuers under the Notes or this Agreement the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Section 23 shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.
Section 23.3. Subrogation. To the extent of any payments made by the Parent Guarantor under this Agreement, the Parent Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of the Notes receiving such payments, but the Parent Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation shall be subordinate in right of payment to the rights of any holders of the Notes for which full payment has not been made or provided for and, to that end, the Parent Guarantor agrees not to claim or enforce any such right of subrogation or any right of set-off or any other right which may arise on account of any payment made by the Parent Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any right of reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any holder of the Notes against the Issuers or any other guarantor, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Issuers or any other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until 366 days after all of the Notes owned by Persons other than the Parent Guarantor or any of its Affiliates and all other sums due or payable under this Agreement have been fully paid and discharged or payment
therefor has been provided. If any amount shall be paid to the Parent Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the indefeasible cash payment in full of the Notes and all other amounts payable under this Agreement, such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and shall forthwith be paid to the holders of the Notes to be credited and applied to the amounts due or to become due with respect to the Notes and all other amounts payable under this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured.
Section 23.4. Preference. The Parent Guarantor agrees that to the extent either Issuer or any other Person makes any payment on the Notes, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to a trustee, liquidator, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Parent Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. The liability of the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to any holder of the Notes from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.
Section 23.5. Marshalling. None of the holders of the Notes shall be under any obligation (a) to marshal any assets in favor of the Parent Guarantor or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Issuers under or in respect of the Notes or the obligation of the Parent Guarantor hereunder or (b) to pursue any other remedy that the Parent Guarantor may or may not be able to pursue itself and that may lessen the Parent Guarantor’s burden or any right to which the Parent Guarantor hereby expressly waives. The obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Agreement rank at least pari passu in right of payment with all other Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of the Parent Guarantor which is not secured or the subject of any statutory trust or preference or which is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness.
* * * * *
If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign the form of agreement on a counterpart of this Agreement and return it to the Obligors, whereupon this Agreement shall become a binding agreement between you and the Obligors.

The Purchasers and such other holders are herein collectively called the “holders” and individually a “holder”.
RECITALS:
A. CSP Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (to be renamed GPT Operating Partnership LP upon consummation of the Merger, together with any permitted successors, the “Company”), GPT Property Trust LP, a Delaware limited partnership (together with any permitted successors, “GPT Property Trust” and, together with the Company, collectively, the “Issuers”), and Xxxxxxxx Street Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (to be renamed Gramercy Property Trust upon consummation of the Merger, together with any permitted successors, the “Parent Guarantor” and, together with the Issuers, collectively, the “Obligors”), entered into a Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement dated as of December 17, 2015 (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Note Agreement”) with the Persons listed on the signature pages thereto (the “Purchasers”). Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings specified in the Note Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.
B. Pursuant to the Note Agreement, the Issuers authorized the issuance of, and issued and sold, their 4.97% Guaranteed Senior Notes due December 17, 2024 in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000,000 (as may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, including any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of the Note Agreement, collectively, the “Notes”).
C. Pursuant to the Note Agreement, the Obligors are required to cause each Guarantor to deliver this Guaranty Agreement to the holders.
D. Each Guarantor will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Note Agreement. The Board of Directors (or equivalent body) of each Guarantor has determined that the incurrence of such obligations is in the best interests of such Guarantor.
NOW, THEREFORE, in compliance with the Note Agreement, and in consideration of, the execution and delivery of the Note Agreement and the purchase of the Notes by each of the Purchasers, each Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with, and represents and warrants to each of the holders as follows:
SECTION 1. GUARANTY.
(a) Subject to the limitations provided in paragraph (e) below, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely, unconditionally and jointly and severally with the other Guarantors, guarantees to the holders from time to time of the Notes: (i) the full and prompt payment on demand of the principal of all of the Notes and of the interest thereon at the rate
therein stipulated (including, without limitation, to the extent legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest at the rates specified in the Notes and interest accruing or becoming owing both prior to and subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving either Issuer or such Guarantor) and the Make-Whole Amount, if any, and all other amounts owing to the holders from time to time under the Notes and the Note Agreement when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration, or otherwise, to the extent theretofore not irrevocably paid by the Issuers, (ii) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Issuers of each and all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed or observed under the terms of the Note Agreement and the Notes when and as the same are not performed and observed by the Issuers on the due date, and (iii) payment of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and such expenses, if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any right or privilege under the Note Agreement or the Notes or in any consultation or action in connection therewith, and in each and every case irrespective of the validity, regularity, or enforcement of any of the Notes or the Note Agreement, or any of the terms thereof or of any other like circumstance or circumstances (all of the obligations described in the foregoing clause (i), clause (ii) and clause (iii) being referred to herein as the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations herein provided for is a guaranty of the immediate and timely payment of the principal, interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on the Notes and other amounts owing in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations as and when the same are due and payable to the extent theretofore not irrevocably paid by the Issuers and shall not be deemed to be a guaranty only of the collectability of such payments and that in consequence thereof each holder of the Notes may xxx any Guarantor directly upon such Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees as a primary obligation to indemnify each holder of Notes from time to time on demand from and against any loss incurred by it as a result of the Note Agreement, any Notes and/or this Guaranty Agreement being or becoming void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, whether or not known to such holder of Notes, the amount of such loss being the amount which such holder of Notes would otherwise have been entitled to recover from such Guarantor, provided that the amount recoverable from such Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount such Guarantor would have had to pay under this Section 1 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.
(b) Joint and Several Liability. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that such Guarantor’s liability hereunder is joint and several with the other Guarantors, the Parent Guarantor and any other Person(s) who may guarantee the obligations and Indebtedness under and in respect of the Notes and the Note Agreement.
(c) Principal Obligors. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be deemed to be undertaken as principal obligors and not merely as sureties.
(d) Continuing Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be continuing obligations notwithstanding any settlement of account or other matter or thing whatsoever and, in particular but without limitation, shall not be considered satisfied by any intermediate payment or satisfaction of all or any of the Issuers’ obligations under or in
respect of any Note and/or the Note Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until all sums due from the Issuers in respect of the Notes and the Note Agreement have been paid and all other obligations of the Issuers thereunder or in respect thereof have been satisfied, in full.
(e) Limitations.
(i) In this Subclause:
“Fraudulent Transfer Law” means any applicable United States bankruptcy and State fraudulent transfer and conveyance statute and any related case law; and
terms used in this Subclause are to be construed in accordance with the Fraudulent Transfer Laws.
(ii) Each Guarantor acknowledges that:
(A) it will receive valuable direct or indirect benefits as a result of the transactions financed by the Note Agreement and the Notes; and
(B) those benefits will constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the purpose of any Fraudulent Transfer Law.
(iii) Each holder of Notes agrees that each relevant Guarantor’s liability under this Clause is limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations under this Clause subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under any Fraudulent Transfer Law, in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Guarantor pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement.
(iv) Each Guarantor represents and warrants to each holder of Notes that:
(A) the aggregate amount of its debts (including its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement) is less than the aggregate value (being the lesser of fair valuation and present fair saleable value) of its assets;
(B) its capital is not unreasonably small to carry on its business as it is being conducted;
(C) it has not incurred and does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature; and
(D) it has not made a transfer or incurred any obligation under the Notes, the Note Agreement or this Guaranty Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its present or future creditors.
For the purposes of the foregoing, the amount of contingent liabilities have been computed as the amount that, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing on the date this representation and warranty is made, can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.
SECTION 2. OBLIGATION ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL; TERMINATION.
(a) Subject to the limitations provided for in Section 1(e) above, this Guaranty Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully, finally and indefeasibly paid and such Guaranteed Obligations shall not be affected, modified or impaired upon the happening from time to time of any event or condition, including without limitation any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of any Guarantor:
(i) the power or authority or the lack of power or authority of either Issuer to issue the Notes or of either Issuer to execute and deliver the Note Agreement, and irrespective of the validity of the Notes or the Note Agreement or of any defense whatsoever that either Issuer may or might have to the payment of the Notes (including, without limitation, principal, interest, or Make-Whole Amount, if any) or to the performance or observance of any of the provisions or conditions of the Note Agreement, or the existence or continuance of either Issuer as a legal entity;
(ii) any failure to present the Notes for payment or to demand payment thereof, or to give any Guarantor, the Parent Guarantor or either Issuer notice of dishonor for non-payment of the Notes, when and as the same may become due and payable, or notice of any failure on the part of either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor to do any act or thing or to perform or to keep any covenant or agreement by either of them to be done, kept or performed under the terms of the Notes or the Note Agreement;
(iii) the acceptance of any security or any guaranty, the advance of additional money to either Issuer, any extension of the obligation of the Notes, either indefinitely or for any period of time, or any other modification in the obligation of the Notes or the Note Agreement or of either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor thereon, or in connection therewith, or any sale, release, substitution or exchange of any security;

any of the Notes to first enforce any right against either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any other Guarantor;
(vi) the waiver, compromise, settlement (other than payment in full in cash by the Issuers), release or termination of any or all of the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Issuers or the Parent Guarantor contained in the Note Agreement, or of any other Guarantor contained in this Guaranty Agreement, or of the payment, performance or observance thereof;
(vii) the failure to give notice to the Issuers, the Parent Guarantor or any other Guarantor of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under the terms and provisions of the Note Agreement;
(viii) the extension of the time for payment of any principal of, or interest (or Make-Whole Amount, if any), on any Note owing or payable on such Note or of the time of or for performance of any obligations, covenants or agreements under or arising out of the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement or the extension or the renewal of any thereof;
(ix) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any obligation, covenant or agreement set forth in the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement;
(x) any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of the holders of the Notes to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred on the holders of the Notes in the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement or any other act or acts on the part of the holders from time to time of the Notes;
(xi) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets, marshaling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization or arrangement under bankruptcy or similar laws, composition with creditors or readjustment of, or other similar procedures affecting the Parent Guarantor, any Guarantor or either Issuer or any of the assets of any of them, or any allegation or contest of the validity of the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement or the disaffirmance of the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement in any such proceeding (it being understood that the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment made with respect to the Notes is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any holder of the Notes upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any Guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made);
(xii) any event or action that would, in the absence of this clause, result in the release or discharge by operation of law of any Guarantor from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Guaranty Agreement;
(xiii) the invalidity or unenforceability of the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement;
(xiv) the invalidity or unenforceability of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce such obligations of any Guarantor, any waiver or consent by any Guarantor with respect to any of the provisions of the Note Agreement, the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a discharge or defense by any Guarantor, including, without limitation, any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations of such Guarantor with respect to this Guaranty Agreement or of notice thereof; or any suit or other action brought by any shareholder or creditor of, or by, any Guarantor or any other Person, for any reason, including, without limitation, any suit or action in any way attacking or involving any issue, matter or thing in respect of this Guaranty Agreement, the Note Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement;

(xxii) any order, judgment, decree, ruling or regulation (whether or not valid) of any court of any nation or of any political subdivision thereof or any body, agency, department, official or administrative or regulatory agency of any thereof or any other action, happening, event or reason whatsoever which shall delay, interfere with, hinder or prevent, or in any way adversely affect, the performance by any party of its respective obligations under the Notes, the Note Agreement or any instrument relating thereto;
provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this paragraph that the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional to the extent herein specified and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the full, final and indefeasible payment to the holders thereof of the principal of, interest on and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and any other amounts due in respect of the Notes and under the Note Agreement, and then only to the extent of such payments. Without limiting any of the other terms or provisions hereof, it is understood and agreed that in order to hold any Guarantor liable hereunder, there shall be no obligation on the part of any holder of any Note to resort, in any manner or form, for payment, to either Issuer, to any other Person (including the Parent Guarantor or any other Guarantor) or to the properties or estates of any of the foregoing. All rights of the holder of any Note pursuant thereto or to this Guaranty Agreement, the Note Agreement and the Notes may be transferred or assigned, in accordance with applicable law, at any time or from time to time and shall be considered to be transferred or assigned upon the transfer of such Note whether with or without the consent of or notice to any Guarantor, the Parent Guarantor or either Issuer. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Issuers shall default under the terms of the Notes or the Note Agreement and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Issuers under the Notes or the Note Agreement, this Guaranty Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Guarantor does hereby expressly waive:
(i) notice of all of the matters specified in clause (a) of this Section 2 and any requirement of diligence on the part of any holder of Notes or its representatives;
(ii) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement;
(iii) notice of any purchase or acceptance of the Notes under the Note Agreement, or the creation, existence or acquisition of any of the Guaranteed Obligations,
subject to each Guarantor’s right to make inquiry of each holder to ascertain the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations at any reasonable time;
(iv) notice of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject to each Guarantor’s right to make inquiry of each holder to ascertain the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations at any reasonable time; and
(v) any stay (except in connection with a pending appeal), valuation, appraisal, redemption or extension law now or at any time hereafter in force that, but for this waiver, might be applicable to any sale of property of any Guarantor made under any judgment, order or decree based on this Guaranty Agreement, and each Guarantor covenants that it will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner claim or take the benefit or advantage of any such law.
(c) Each of the rights and remedies granted under this Guaranty Agreement to each holder in respect of the Notes held by such holder may be exercised by such holder without notice to, or the consent of or any other action by, any other holder. Each holder may proceed to protect and enforce this Guaranty Agreement by making the payment hereunder on demand, by suit or suits or proceedings in equity, at law or in bankruptcy, and whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein or in execution or aid of any power herein granted; or for the recovery of judgment for the obligations hereby guarantied or for the enforcement of any other proper, legal or equitable remedy available under applicable law.
(d) If any holder shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under the Note Agreement, this Guaranty Agreement or any Note held by such holder and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to such holder, then and in every such case each such holder and each Issuer shall, except as may be limited or affected by any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to its respective former position hereunder and thereunder, and thereafter the rights and remedies of such holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, any Guarantor, by written notice to each holder of a Note, may terminate its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9.7 of the Note Agreement.
(f) Any term or provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the Note Agreement or the Notes notwithstanding, if any U.S. federal or state fraudulent conveyance laws are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be applicable to the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder, such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall be limited to the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable U.S. federal or state fraudulent conveyance laws.
SECTION 3. SUBROGATION; PAYMENTS HELD IN TRUST.
(a) To the extent of any payments made under this Guaranty Agreement, each Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of the Notes receiving such payments, but each Guarantor covenants and agrees that it will not exercise any such rights of subrogation, any rights of setoff, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, or any rights or recourse to any security for the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement, in each case unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully paid and discharged, or payment therefor has been provided, nor shall any Guarantor accept any payment on account of such rights.
(b) If any payment shall be made to any Guarantor by either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any other Guarantor of any amounts owing to such Guarantor by either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any other Guarantor during any time when the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall have become due and payable, such Guarantor shall hold in trust all such payments for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the holders of the Notes.
SECTION 4. PREFERENCE.
Each Guarantor agrees that to the extent either Issuer or any other Person makes any payment on the Guaranteed Obligations, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or is required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to any holder of the Notes from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.
SECTION 5. MARSHALING.
None of the holders of the Notes shall be under any obligation (a) to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Issuers under or in respect of the Notes or the Note Agreement, the obligation of the Parent Guarantor under the Note Agreement or the obligation of each Guarantor hereunder or (b) to pursue any other remedy that any Guarantor may or may not be able to pursue itself and that may lighten such Guarantor’s burden, any right to which each Guarantor hereby expressly waives.
SECTION 6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF EACH GUARANTOR.
Each Guarantor represents and warrants to you as follows:
(a) Organization and Authority. Such Guarantor is a limited liability company, limited partnership or corporation duly organized, validly existing and, to the extent
such concept is recognized, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation; such Guarantor has the corporate (or other appropriate) power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business and is duly qualified as a foreign entity and, to the extent such concept is recognized, is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or, to the extent such concept is recognized, in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b) Transaction Is Legal and Authorized. The issuance of this Guaranty Agreement, and the execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty Agreement and compliance with all of the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement:
(1) are within the corporate (or other) powers of such Guarantor;
(2) will not violate any provisions of any law or any order of any court or governmental authority or agency and will not conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under the articles of association, charter or By-laws or other constitutive documents of such Guarantor or any indenture or other material agreement or instrument to which such Guarantor is a party or by which it may be bound or result in the imposition of any Lien on any property of such Guarantor; and
(3) have been duly authorized by proper action on the part of such Guarantor and any required action by the stockholders or other equity holders of such Guarantor required by law or by the articles of association, charter or By-laws or other constitutive documents of such Guarantor or otherwise, executed and delivered by such Guarantor and this Guaranty Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation, contract and agreement of such Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such terms may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) by other principles of law set out as qualifications or reservations to any legal opinion delivered in connection with this Guaranty Agreement.
(c) Governmental Consent. No approval, consent, registration, filing or withholding of objection on the part of any Governmental Authority is necessary in connection with the execution and delivery by such Guarantor of this Guaranty Agreement or compliance by such Guarantor with any of the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement.
(d) Commercial Benefit. Such Guarantor will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Note Agreement, and the Board of Directors (or equivalent body) of such Guarantor has determined that the incurrence of its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement is in the best interests of such Guarantor.
(e) Solvency. After giving effect to the execution and delivery of this Guaranty Agreement and taking into account (i) the likelihood of being required to perform this Guaranty Agreement and (ii) the fact that such Guarantor does not have any intention to defraud
any of its creditors, such Guarantor is solvent and able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.
Without in any way limiting the generality of the warranties and representations of the Issuers and the Parent Guarantor contained in Section 5 of the Note Agreement, each of such warranties and representations is, insofar as it refers to any Subsidiary, true and correct with respect to such Guarantor.
Such Guarantor will comply with each of the provisions of Section 9 and Section 10 of the Note Agreement, and each other covenant and agreement contained therein, that is applicable to any Subsidiary generally.
SECTION 7. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.
(a) Each Guarantor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
(b) Each Guarantor consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 7(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 8 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. Each Guarantor agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.
(c) Nothing in this Section 7 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against any Guarantor in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.
(d) The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect to this Guaranty Agreement or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith.
SECTION 8. NOTICES.
All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:
(i) if to a Purchaser, to such Purchaser at the address specified for such communications in Schedule A to the Note Agreement, or at such other address as the Purchaser shall have specified to the Issuers in writing, or
(ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the Issuers in writing, or
(iii) if to any Guarantor, to [ ] or at such other addresses as such Guarantor shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.
Notices under this Section 8 will be deemed given only when actually received.
SECTION 9. AMENDMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS; SOLICITATION OF HOLDERS.
(a) This Guaranty Agreement may only be amended and compliance therewith waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) by an instrument in writing signed by each Guarantor and by the Required Holders; provided, that without the written consent of the holders of all of the Notes then outstanding, no such amendment or waiver shall be effective which will reduce the scope of the guaranty set forth in this Guaranty Agreement or amend Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 10 hereof or amend this Section 9. No such amendment or modification shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly amended or modified or impair any right consequent thereon.
(b) No Guarantor will solicit, request or negotiate for or with respect to any proposed waiver or amendment of any of the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement unless each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) shall be informed thereof by such Guarantor and shall be afforded the opportunity of considering the same and shall be supplied by such Guarantor with a sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect thereto. No Guarantor will, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of the Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of the Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions of this Guaranty Agreement, the Note Agreement or the Notes, unless such remuneration is concurrently paid or security is concurrently granted or other credit support is concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to the holders of all of the Notes then outstanding. Promptly and in any event within 30 days of the date of execution and delivery of any such waiver or amendment, each Guarantor shall provide a true, correct and complete copy thereof to each of the holders of the Notes.
(c) Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Guaranty Agreement, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.
(d) Any consent, waiver or amendment made pursuant to this Section 9 by a holder of Notes that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Notes to either Issuer, the Parent Guarantor, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate (including any Guarantor) of either Issuer or the Parent Guarantor and has provided or has agreed to provide such written consent, waiver or amendment as a condition to such transfer shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted without the agreement or consent of such holder (and the agreement or consent of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder.
SECTION 10. PARI PASSU.
The payment obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement will at all times rank at least pari passu in right of payment, without preference or priority, with all other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor, except for (i) such Indebtedness as would, by virtue only of the law in force in the jurisdiction in which such Guarantor is organized, be preferred by operation of bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws of general application and (ii) the limitations set forth in Section 1(e) hereof.
SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to any holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guaranty Agreement now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle any holder of any Note to exercise any remedy reserved to it under this Guaranty Agreement, it shall not be necessary for such holder to physically produce its Note in any proceedings instituted by it or to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required.
(b) In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
(c) This Guaranty Agreement shall be binding upon the undersigned Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchasers and their respective successors and assigns so long as any of their respective Notes remain outstanding and unpaid.
(d) Each Guarantor will maintain an office at the address of such Guarantor referred to in Section 8, where notices, presentations and demands in respect hereof or of the Guaranteed Obligations may be made upon such Guarantor until such time as such Guarantor shall notify each holder of any change of location of such office.
(e) This Guaranty Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
(f) The obligations of each Guarantor under the final sentence of Section 1(a) will survive the payment or transfer of the obligations hereunder, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty Agreement, and the termination hereof.
(g) It is agreed and understood that any Person may become a Guarantor hereunder by executing a Guarantor Supplement substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and delivering the same to each holder of the Notes. Any such Person shall thereafter be a “Guarantor” for all purposes under this Guaranty Agreement.
