Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 2.4 for the portion of the Loans so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof and, during the existence of any Event of Default, interest shall be paid on demand.
- While any Event of Default exists, subject to the following paragraph of this subsection 2.6(c), Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of the Loans outstanding, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus an additional 2%.
- Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Obligations of Borrowers hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event Borrowers shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
- Fees
- Administrative Agent Fees
- Collateral Agent Fees
- Agent Work Fee
- Working Group and E.N. Fee
- Computation of Fees and Interest
- Payments by Borrowers
- All payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrowers on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim and shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Administrative Agent's Payment Office, in dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Los Angeles time) on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Commitment Percentage of such principal, interest, fees or other amounts, in like funds as received. Any payment which is received by the Administrative Agent later than 2:00 p.m. (Los Angeles time) shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.
- Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.
- Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that Borrowers will not make such payment in full as and when required hereunder, the Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrowers shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate as in effect for each such day.
- Sharing of Payments, Etc
- Taxes
- Subject to Section 3.01(g), any and all payments by Borrowers to each Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, such taxes (including income taxes or franchise taxes) as are imposed on or measured by each Lender's net income by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").
- In addition, Borrowers shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").
- Subject to Section 3.01(g), Borrowers shall indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.1) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided, however, that any Person receiving from Borrowers such an indemnification payment shall provide to Borrowers proof of payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes, accompanied by a certificate stating that such Person reasonably believes that such amount was properly due and payable, or, if reasonable grounds exist on which to contest such payment, so notifying Borrowers thereof, so that appropriate remedies may be pursued. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor.
- If Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, then, subject to Section 3.01(g):
- the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.1) such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made;
- Borrowers shall make such deductions; and

. Each Borrower represents to the Lenders that each is an integral part of a consolidated enterprise, and that each Borrower will receive direct and indirect benefits from the availability of the joint credit facility provided for herein, and from the ability to access the collective credit resources of the consolidated enterprise that are Borrowers. Each Borrower irrevocably authorizes each other Borrower to act on its behalf in requesting, authorizing, and using the proceeds of the Loans made hereunder, and each Borrower agrees to be bound by the acts of each of the others in connection with the Loan Documents.
Each Borrower is, and at all times shall be, jointly and severally liable for each and every one of the Obligations hereunder, regardless of which Borrower requested, received, used, or directly enjoyed the benefit of the extensions of credit hereunder. Unless otherwise expressly set forth to the contrary in any of the Security Agreements, all of the Collateral provided under the Security Agreements shall secure all of the Obligations. Each Borrower's Obligations under this Agreement are independent Obligations and are absolute and unconditional. Each Borrower, to the extent permitted by law, hereby waives any defense to such Obligations that may arise by reason of the disability or other defense or cessation of liability of any other Borrower for any reason other than payment in full. Each Borrower also waives any defense to such Obligations that it may have as a result of any holder's election of or failure to exercise any right, power, or remedy, including, without limitation, the failure to proceed first against such other Borrower or any security it holds for such other Borrower's Obligations under any Loan Document, if any. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower expressly waives all demands and notices whatsoever (except for any demands or notices, if any, that such Borrower expressly is entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document), and agrees that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent may, without notice (except for such notice, if any, as such Borrower expressly is entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document) and without releasing the liability of such Borrower, extend for the benefit of any other Borrower the time for making any payment, waive or extend the performance of any agreement or make any settlement of any agreement for the benefit of any other Borrower, and may proceed against each Borrower, directly and independently of any other Borrower, as such obligee may elect in accordance with this Agreement.
Each Borrower acknowledges that the Obligations of such Borrower undertaken herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the grants of security interests and liens by such Borrower to secure Obligations of the other Borrowers could be construed to consist, at least in part, of the guaranty of Obligations of the other Borrowers and, in full recognition of that fact, each Borrower consents and agrees as hereinafter set forth in the balance of this Section 2.5. The consents, waivers, and agreements of the Borrowers that are contained in the balance of this Section 2.5 are intended to deal with the suretyship aspects of the transactions evidenced by the Loan Documents (to the extent that a Borrower may be deemed a guarantor or surety for the Obligations of another Borrower) and thus are intended to be effective and applicable only to the extent that any Borrower has agreed to answer for the Obligations of another Borrower or has granted a lien or security interest in Collateral to secure the Obligations of another Borrower. Conversely, the consents, waivers, and agreements of the Borrowers that are contained in the balance of this Section 2.5 shall not be applicable to the direct Obligations of a Borrower with respect to credit extended directly to such Borrower, and shall not be applicable to security interests or liens on Collateral of a Borrower given to directly secure direct Obligations of such Borrower where no aspect of guaranty or suretyship is involved. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, whether before or after any actual or purported termination, repudiation or revocation of this Agreement by any one or more Borrowers, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof as to such Borrower, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents: (a) supplement, restate, modify, amend, increase, decrease, extend, renew, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof, including any increase or decrease of the rate(s) of interest thereon; (b) supplement, restate, modify, amend, increase, decrease or waive, or enter into or give any agreement, approval or consent with respect to, the Obligations or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents or any security or guarantees granted or entered into by any Person(s) other than such Borrower, or any condition, covenant, default, remedy, right, representation or term thereof or thereunder; (c) accept new or additional instruments, documents or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Loan Documents or the Obligations or any part thereof, (d) accept partial payments on the Obligations; (e) receive and hold additional security or guarantees for the Obligations or any part thereof, (f) release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, exchange, substitute, transfer or enforce any security or guarantees, and apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lenders in their sole and absolute discretion may determine; (g) release any other Person (including, without limitation, any other Borrower) from any personal liability with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof, (h) with respect to any Person other than such Borrower (including, without limitation, any other Borrower), settle, release on terms satisfactory to the Lenders or by operation of applicable laws or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any security therefor or guaranty thereof in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security and bid and purchase at any sale; or (i) consent to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the corporate or partnership existence of any other Borrower or any other Person, and correspondingly agree, in accordance with all applicable provisions of the Loan Documents, to the restructure of the Obligations, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability of any Borrower or the continuing effectiveness hereof, or the enforceability hereof with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may enforce the Loan Documents independently as to each Borrower and independently of any other remedy or the Administrative Agent at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and, subject to the provisions of Section 8.3, it shall not be necessary for the Administrative Agent to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed upon or against or exhaust any security or remedy before proceeding to enforce this Agreement. Each Borrower expressly waives, subject to the provisions of Section 8.3, any right to require the Administrative Agent to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against any other Borrower or any collateral provided by any Person, and agrees that, subject to the provisions of Section 8.3, the Administrative Agent may proceed against Borrowers or any collateral in such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.
The Administrative Agent may file a separate action or actions against any Borrower, whether action is brought or prosecuted with respect to any security or against any other Person, or whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. Each Borrower agrees, for itself, that the Administrative Agent and any other Borrower, or any Affiliate of any other Borrower (other than such Borrower itself), may deal with each other in connection with the Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter existing between any of them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering or affecting the continuing efficacy as to such Borrower of the Loan Documents.
The Administrative Agent's and the Lenders' rights hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Agreement shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (including, without limitation, the restoration or return of any amount pursuant to a court order or judgment (whether or not final or non-appealable), or pursuant to a good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance or recovery action, or pursuant to good faith compliance with a demand made by a Person believed to be entitled to pursue an avoidance or recovery action (such as a bankruptcy trustee or a Person having the avoiding powers of a bankruptcy trustee, or similar avoiding powers), and without requiring the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to oppose or litigate avoidance or recovery demands or actions that it believes in good faith to be meritorious or worthy of settlement or compliance, or pursue or exhaust appeals), all as though such amount had not been paid. The rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders created or granted herein and the enforceability of the Loan Documents at all times shall remain effective to cover the full amount of all the Obligations even though the Obligations, including any part thereof or any other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against any other Borrower and whether or not any other Borrower shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower, for itself, expressly waives any and all defenses now or hereafter arising or that otherwise might be asserted by reason of (a) any disability or other defense of any other Borrower with respect to the Obligations or with respect to the enforceability of the Administrative Agent's security interest in or lien on any collateral securing any of the Obligations (including, without limitation, the Collateral), (b) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty for the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations, (c) the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other Borrower (other than by reason of the full payment and performance of all Obligations), (d) any failure of the Administrative Agent to give notice of sale or other disposition of Collateral to any other Borrower or any other Person other than such waiving Borrower, or any defect in any notice that may be given to any other Borrower for any other Person other than such waiving Borrower, in connection with any sale or disposition of any collateral securing the Obligations or any of them (including, without limitation, the Collateral), (e) any failure of the Administrative Agent to comply with applicable law in connection with the sale or other disposition of any collateral or other security for any Obligation that is owned by another Borrower or by any other Person other than such waiving Borrower, including any failure of the Administrative Agent to conduct a commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of any such collateral or other security for any Obligation, (f) any act or omission of the Administrative Agent or others that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any other Borrower, or the Obligations of any other Borrower, or any security or guaranty therefor, by operation of law or otherwise, or (g) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety's or guarantor's obligation in proportion to the principal obligation. Until such time, if any, as all of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations and indemnities which survive repayment of the Loans) have been paid and performed in full and no portion of any commitment of the Lenders to any Borrower under any Loan Document remains in effect, no Borrower shall have any right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnity, and each Borrower expressly waives any right to enforce any remedy that the Administrative Agent now has or hereafter may have against any other Person and waives the benefit of, or any right to participate in, any collateral now or hereafter held by the Administrative Agent. Except to the extent expressly provided for in any Loan Document, each Borrower expressly waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all rights or entitlements to presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of the Loan Documents or of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations.
In the event that all or any part of the Obligations at any time should be or become secured by any one or more deeds of trust or mortgages or other instruments creating or granting liens on any interests in real property, each Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at its sole option, without notice or demand except as is or may be expressly required by the terms of any Loan Document or by the provisions of any applicable law, to foreclose any or all of such deeds of trust or mortgages or other instruments by judicial or non-judicial sale, without affecting or diminishing, except to the extent of the effect of the application of the proceeds realized therefrom, and except to the extent mandated by any non-waivable provision of applicable law, the Obligations of any Borrower (other than the Obligations of a grantor of a foreclosed deed of trust, mortgage, or other instrument, to the extent, if any, that applicable law affects or diminishes the Obligations of such grantor), the enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity or enforceability of any remaining security interests or liens of, or for the benefit of, the Lenders on any Collateral.
Each Borrower hereby agrees to keep each other Borrower fully apprised at all times as to the status of its business, affairs, finances, and financial condition, and its ability to perform its Obligations under the Loan Documents, and in particular as to any adverse developments with respect thereto. Each Borrower hereby agrees to undertake to keep itself apprized at all times as to the status of the business, affairs, finances, and financial condition of each other Borrower, and of the ability of each other Borrower to perform its Obligations under the Loan Documents, and in particular as to any adverse developments with respect to any thereof. Each Borrower hereby agrees, in light of the foregoing mutual covenants to inform each other, and to keep themselves and each other informed as to such matters, that the Lenders shall have no duty to inform any Borrower of any information pertaining to the business, affairs, finances, or financial condition of any other Borrower, or pertaining to the ability of any other Borrower to perform its Obligations under the Loan Documents, even if such information is adverse, and even if such information might influence the decision of one or more of the Borrowers to continue to be jointly and severally liable for, or to provide Collateral for, Obligations of one or more of the other Borrowers. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower hereby expressly waives any duty of the Lenders to inform any Borrower of any such information,
Borrowers and each of them warrant and agree that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein are made after consultation with legal counsel and with full knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may diminish, or otherwise adversely affect rights that Borrowers otherwise may have against other Borrowers, Lenders, or others, or against Collateral, and that, under the circumstances, the waivers and consents herein given are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.
The foregoing notwithstanding, if any amount of principal of or interest on any Loan, or any other amount payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents is not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise), Borrowers agree to pay interest on such unpaid principal or other amount, from the date such amount becomes due until the date such amount is paid in full, and after as well as before any entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus an additional 2%.

If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Commitment Percentage of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter required to be restored or returned by the purchasing Lender (including, without limitation, the restoration or return of any amount pursuant to a court order or judgment (whether or not final or non-appealable), or pursuant to a good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance or recovery action, or pursuant to good faith compliance with a demand made by a Person believed to be entitled to pursue an avoidance or recovery action (such as a bankruptcy trustee or a Person having the avoiding powers of a bankruptcy trustee, or similar avoiding powers), and without requiring such purchasing Lender to oppose or litigate avoidance or recovery demands or actions that it believes in good faith to be meritorious or worthy of settlement or compliance, or pursue or exhaust appeals), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's Commitment Percentage (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrowers each agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this Section 2.10 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.

Borrowers agree to reimburse each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any reasonable loss or expense which the Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) the failure of Borrowers to make any payment or prepayment of principal of any Loan (including payments to be made after any acceleration thereof); (b) the failure of Borrowers to make any prepayment after Borrowers have given Requisite Notice in accordance with Section 2.3 or 2.4; or (c) the prepayment of a Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto; including any such reasonable loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Loan hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. This covenant shall survive the payment in full of all other Obligations; provided, however, any Lender desiring to make a claim for reimbursement under this Section 3.4, shall do so within 180 days after the Termination Date.

If (a) BofA shall have determined that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to the LIBO Rate Loan, or (b) if Majority Lenders shall have determined and notified the Administrative Agent that the LIBO Rate applicable for any requested Interest Period with respect to a LIBO Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of maintaining such Loan, then the Administrative Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to Borrowers and each Lender. The Lenders shall convert or continue the LIBO Rate Loans, as proposed by Borrowers, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by Borrowers, but such Loans shall be converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of LIBO Rate Loans.
. Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, any Lender, additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Loan equal to actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by the Lender (as determined by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided Borrowers shall have received at least 15 days' prior written Requisite Notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from the Lender. If a Lender fails to give Requisite Notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable 15 days from receipt of such notice. This covenant shall survive the payment in full of all other Obligations; provided, however, any Lender desiring to make a claim for reimbursement under this Section 3.6, shall do so within 270 days after the Termination Date.
. Upon any claim for reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Article III, the Lenders shall deliver to Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the Lenders hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.
. The agreements and obligations of Borrowers in this Article III shall survive the payment of all other Obligations (other than contingent obligations and indemnities which survive repayment of the Loans) and the termination of the Loan Documents.
. The obligation of each Lender to maintain its Loan hereunder is subject to the condition that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before the Closing Date all of the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Lender and, with respect to original Loan Documents other than the Notes, in sufficient copies for each Lender:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lenders shall have the right, exercisable by action of the Majority Lenders, but not the obligation, to record any lien and/or security interest granted hereby pursuant to any applicable state or other law method. Borrowers shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lenders in recording any lien or security interest granted hereby, and shall pay such reasonable costs and expenses to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders.

. A Change of Control Event shall occur; or
. There shall occur any event or condition after the Confirmation Date that does or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and as to which event or condition the Administrative Agent has delivered a notice to Borrowers within 30 days of the occurrence thereof and which event or condition shall not have been cured by Borrowers or their Subsidiaries within 30 days after receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent; or
. Any Loan Document shall cease to be in full force and effect for any reason other than the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations, the agreement of the Lenders, or the termination thereof in accordance with its terms, any court of competent jurisdiction shall declare any Loan Document, or any material provision thereof to be void, ineffective, or unenforceable, any Lien on any material type, item, or portion of Collateral provided for in any Loan Document shall be set aside, avoided, or declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, ineffective, or unenforceable, or any Borrower shall challenge, dispute, or repudiate all or any material portion of its Obligations under any material provision of any of the Loan Documents or the Lenders shall cease to have a first priority Lien on all Collateral (subject to Permitted Liens); or

. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Sections (f), (g) or (n) above, the Credit Commitments shall automatically and immediately terminate and the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued interest on the Loans and any and all accrued fees and other Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, with all additional interest from time to time accrued thereon and without presentation, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and notice of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrowers or their Subsidiaries, and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or may with the consent of the Majority Lenders, by written notice to Borrowers, (i) declare that the Credit Commitments are terminated, whereupon the Credit Commitments shall immediately terminate, (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and any and all accrued fees and other Obligations to be, and the same shall thereupon be, immediately due and payable with all additional interest from time to time accrued thereon and without presentation, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and notice of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrowers. The rights and remedies of the Lenders hereunder shall be binding upon a Chapter 11 or Chapter 7 Trustee in any Bankruptcy case relating to Borrowers.
. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent any such action is not inconsistent with the Confirmation Order, the Lender shall have all rights as a secured creditor under the UCC in all relevant jurisdictions and may:
(1) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent and there delivered to the Collateral Agent;
(2) while the Collateral shall be stored and kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition; and
it being understood that Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to the Bankruptcy Court, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries of such obligation.
. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and to the extent not inconsistent with the Confirmation Order, any Collateral repossessed by the Collateral Agent, and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Collateral Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with any applicable laws, determined to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Collateral Agent or after any overhaul or repair which the Collateral Agent shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Any such disposition which shall be a private sale or other private proceeding permitted by applicable laws shall be made upon not less than 30 days' written notice to Borrowers specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the 30 days after the giving of such notice, to the right of Borrowers or any nominee of Borrowers to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified. Any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by applicable laws shall be made upon not less than 30 days' written notice to Borrowers specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable laws, shall be by public auction (which may, at the Collateral Agent's option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction not less than 30 days prior thereto in two newspapers in national circulation. To the extent permitted by any applicable laws, the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders may bid for and become the purchaser of the Collateral or any item thereof, offered for sale in accordance with this Section 8.4 without accountability to Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or the Credit Lenders (except to the extent of surplus money received). If, under applicable laws, the Collateral Agent shall be required to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to Borrowers as herein above specified, the Collateral Agent need give Borrowers only such notice of disposition as shall be reasonably practicable.
. Except as required by the Bankruptcy Code or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, Borrowers shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to satisfy the Obligations. Borrowers shall also be liable for all reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with collecting such deficiency, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency.
. The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND COLLATERAL AGENT
. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 6.9 hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent.
. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may execute any of their respective duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that they select with reasonable care.
. None of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons or Collateral Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrowers, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrowers or any other party to any Loan Document (except the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent) to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person Agent or Collateral Agent-Related Persons shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of Borrowers or any of Borrowers' Subsidiaries or Affiliates.
. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender (other than BofA) or Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be requested by the Majority Lenders in accordance with Article VIII; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received any such request, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.
. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, and all applicable Lender regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated thereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and extend credit to Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers which may come into the possession of any of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons.
. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent-Related Persons and Collateral Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), ratably from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the repayment of the Loans and the termination or resignation of the related Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the Lenders shall not be liable for the payment to the Administrative Agent-Related Persons or Collateral Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Lenders shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein to the extent that the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent are not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, together with all costs and expenses and attorneys' fees (including Attorney Costs). The obligation of the Lenders in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder.
. BofA and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though BofA were not the Administrative Agent hereunder or without notice to or consent of the Lenders. With respect to its Loans, BofA shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include BofA in its individual capacity.
. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may, and at the request of the Majority Lenders shall, resign as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, as the case may be, upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under this Agreement, the Majority Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor Administrative Agent and a successor Collateral Agent, as the case may be, for the Lenders which successor Administrative Agent and successor Collateral Agent shall be approved by Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor Administrative Agent and no successor Collateral Agent, as the case may be, are appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Borrowers, a successor Administrative Agent and a successor Collateral Agent, as the case may be, from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of their appointment as successor Administrative Agent and successor Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent and successor Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall succeed to all the appointment, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Collateral Agent. The term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor Administrative Agent and the term "Collateral Agent" shall mean such successor Collateral Agent. The retiring Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated and the retiring Collateral Agent's rights, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After a retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as Administrative Agent hereunder and a retiring Collateral Agent's resignation as Collateral Agent hereunder, as the case may be, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall inure to their respective benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by them while they were Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Administrative Agent and no successor Collateral Agent have accepted appointment as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation and a retiring Collateral Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation and the retiring Collateral Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent and a successor Collateral Agent, as the case may be, as provided for above.
. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by Borrowers therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by, or consented to in writing by the Majority Lenders, Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders, do any of the following: (1) waive any of the conditions precedent specified in Article 4; (2) increase the Aggregate Commitment of the Lenders; (3) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees hereunder; (4) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees hereunder; (5) change the respective percentage of the Credit Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes or the number of Lenders which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take action hereunder; or (6) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 10.1; and provided further that no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents.
. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
. Borrowers shall whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated:
The agreements of Borrowers set forth in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
. Borrowers shall pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (each, an "Indemnified Person") harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any insolvency proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to this Agreement, the Loan Documents, or the Loans or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided, however, that Borrowers shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.
Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Indemnified Person, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable Attorney Costs and the allocated cost of internal environmental audit or review services), which may be incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Person in connection with or arising out of any pending or threatened investigation, litigation or proceeding, or any action taken by any Person, with respect to any Environmental Claim arising out of or related to any Property subject to a Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent or any Lender. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in defending against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested remedial, removal or response action shall vitiate or in any way impair Borrowers' obligation and duty hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender.
In no event shall any site visit, observation, or testing by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender (or any contractor of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender) be deemed a representation or warranty that Hazardous Materials are or are not present in, on, or under the site, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Environmental Law. Neither Borrowers nor any other Person is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation, or testing by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any Lender owes any duty of care to protect Borrowers or any other Person against, or to inform Borrowers or any other party of, any Hazardous Materials or any other adverse condition affecting any site or Property. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall be obligated to disclose to Borrowers or any other Person any report or findings made as a result of, or in connection with, any site visit, observation, or testing by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender.
At the election of any Indemnified Person, Borrowers shall defend such Indemnified Person using legal counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Person in such Person's reasonable discretion, at the sole cost and expense of Borrowers. All amounts owing under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within 30 days after demand.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any amount required to be paid by any Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Administrative Agent-Related Person pursuant to Section 9.7 shall constitute an Indemnified Liability recoverable by such Lender from Borrowers, so long as such Indemnified Liability does not arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct such Lender. The agreements in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations.
. Except as set forth in Section 8.2 hereof, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrowers or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Collateral Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the right to foreclose and liquidate any of the Collateral in any order without incurring any liability to Borrowers. To the extent that Borrowers make a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or the Administrative Agent or the Lenders enforce their Liens or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party in connection with any insolvency proceeding, or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.
. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.
. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists, each Lender is, subject to Section 8.2, authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrowers, any such notice being waived by Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing to, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrowers against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 10.9 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Lender may have.
. With respect to any agency fee, or other fee, or any other cost or expense (including Attorney Costs) due and payable to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or BofA under the Loan Documents, Borrowers may choose to authorize BofA to debit any deposit account of Borrowers with BofA in an amount such that the aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such fee or other cost of expense. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the fee or other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole or in part, in BofA's sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section 10.10 shall be deemed a setoff.
Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to the Lender should be directed, of addresses of its Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.
. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.
. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or other Loan Documents.
. Time is of the essence as to each term or provision of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents.
. BORROWERS, THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OF, OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. BORROWERS, THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and, except as otherwise stated below, supersedes all prior or contemporaneous Agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof
. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by counsel to the Administrative Agent, Borrowers and other parties, and is the product of all parties hereto. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be construed against the Lenders or the Administrative Agent merely because of the Administrative Agent's or Lenders' involvement in the preparation of such documents and agreements.
. Fees and claims arising out of BofA's pre-petition and post-petition cash management system shall rank pari passu with the fees and claims due to the Lenders hereunder.
. Borrowers shall execute and deliver a Release of Claims in favor of the Lenders, in the form of Schedule 10.22 hereto.
. At any time and from time to time, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall execute, deliver and acknowledge or cause to be executed, delivered or acknowledged, such further documents and instruments and do such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to fully effect the purposes of the Loan Documents and any other agreements, instruments and documents delivered pursuant to or in connection with the Loans.
. Borrowers acknowledge and agree that:
. Section headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their proper and duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
