Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.14. below, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, such Lender's Revolving Commitment; provided, however Revolving Loans shall not be made if restricted by the amount limitations set forth in Section 2.14. Each borrowing of Revolving Loans hereunder shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount (except that, subject to Section 2.14., any such borrowing of Revolving Loans may be in the aggregate amount of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments of all Lenders minus the sum of the aggregate principal balance of all Revolving Loans outstanding and the Letter of Credit Liabilities, which Revolving Loans, if less than $100,000, must be Base Rate Loans). Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

(b) Requests for Revolving Loans. Not later than 9:00 a.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to a borrowing of Base Rate Loans and not later than 9:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to a borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans to be borrowed, the date such Revolving Loans are to be borrowed (which must be a Business Day), the Type of the requested Revolving Loans, and if such Revolving Loans are to be LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period for such Revolving Loans. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower. If the Borrower fails to indicate the Type of Revolving Loans being borrowed in a Notice of Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of LIBOR Loans having an Interest Period of one month. Prior to delivering a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower may (without specifying whether a Revolving Loan will be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan) request that the Administrative Agent provide the Borrower with the most recent LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall provide such quoted rate to the Borrower on the date of such request or as soon as possible thereafter.

(c) Funding of Revolving Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing. Each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender to the Borrower with the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds not later than 9:00 a.m. on the date of such proposed Revolving Loans. Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall make available to the Borrower at the Principal Office, not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of the requested borrowing of Revolving Loans, the proceeds of such amounts received by the Administrative Agent. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

(d) Assumptions Regarding Funding by Lenders. With respect to Revolving Loans to be made after the Effective Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Revolving Loan to be provided by such Lender. In such event, if such Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Revolving Loan, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days following written demand the amount of such Revolving Loan with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Revolving Loan is made available to the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay the amount of such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Revolving Loan included in the borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender.

Section 2.2. Letters of Credit.

(a) Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.14., the Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, one or more standby letters of credit (each a "Letter of Credit") up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50,000,000 as such amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof (the "L/C Commitment Amount").

(b) Terms of Letters of Credit. At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and conditions of each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the Maturity Date, or (ii) any Letter of Credit have an initial duration in excess of one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the Issuing Bank but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall be at least $200,000.

(c) Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall give the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent written notice at least four (4) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the proposed (i) initial Stated Amount, (ii) beneficiary, and (iii) expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary applications and agreements for standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested from time to time by the Issuing Bank. Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and delivered such application and agreements referred to in the preceding sentence, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 6.2., the Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary but in any event no later than the date four (4) Business Days following the date after which the Issuing Bank has received all of the items required to be delivered to it under this subsection. Upon the written request of the Borrower, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of (i) any Letter of Credit proposed to be issued hereunder prior to the issuance thereof and (ii) each issued Letter of Credit within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof. To the extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control.

(d) Reimbursement Obligations. Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand. The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind. Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, the Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of the immediately following subsection (i) such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of such payment.

(e) Manner of Reimbursement. Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement. If the Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit, the failure of which the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice thereof and of the amount of the demand for payment, specifying such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the amount of the related demand for payment and the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply.

(f) Effect of Letters of Credit on Revolving Commitments. Upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Revolving Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

(g) Issuing Bank's Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit (provided, however, the within limitation shall not affect Issuing Bank's liability for paying a drawing under any Letter of Credit when the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit has not substantially complied with the requirements imposed by such Letter of Credit for such drawing; provided further, Issuing Bank shall have no duty to verify the existence or reasonableness of any act or condition referenced in or in connection with, or any statement in or in connection with, any drawing or presentment under any Letter of Credit); (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or the Lenders. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Bank's or Administrative Agent's rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create against the Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Bank under the Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply, but which does substantially comply, with the terms of the Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower's Reimbursement Obligations.

(h) Amendments, Etc. The issuance by the Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the Issuing Bank), and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders shall have consented thereto. In connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5.(c).

(i) Lenders' Participation in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Bank's liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to the second and the last sentences of Section 3.5.(c)).

(j) Payment Obligation of Lenders. Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of such drawing. The amount a Lender pays to the Administrative Agent under this subsection shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan by such Lender if, at the time of such payment, the Borrower is not prohibited from obtaining Revolving Loans under this Agreement. Further, any such Revolving Loan shall be a LIBOR Loan having an Interest Period of one month unless otherwise prohibited by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms of Sections 5.2 or 5.3, in which case each such Revolving Loan shall be deemed to be a Base Rate Loan. Each Lender's obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative Agent's right to receive the same for the account of the Issuing Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower, the Parent or any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Sections 11.1.(e) or (f) or (iv) the termination of the Revolving Commitments. Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

(k) Information to Lenders. Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to each Lender and the Borrower a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Bank shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder. The failure of the Issuing Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (j).

Section 2.3. Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.

(a) Rates. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:

(i) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor, plus the Applicable Margin.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall, upon and after the Administrative Agent's demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender and the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, on all Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).

(b) Payment of Interest. All accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective Date and (ii) on any date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity, due to acceleration or otherwise). Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.4. Number of Interest Periods.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, there may be no more than eight (8) different Interest Periods outstanding at the same time.

Section 2.5. Repayment of Loans.

The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.6. Prepayments.

(a) Optional. Subject to Section 5.4., the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the prepayment of any Loan. Each voluntary prepayment of Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Mandatory.

(i) Revolving Commitment Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeds the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall no later than two (2) days following the Administrative Agent's demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders then holding Revolving Commitments (or if the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, then holding outstanding Revolving Loans and/or Letter of Credit Liabilities), the amount of such excess. All payments under this subsection (b)(i) shall be applied in accordance with the last sentence of Section 3.2.

(ii) Maximum Loan Availability Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeds the Maximum Loan Availability, the Borrower shall, within 30 days of the earlier of (A) receipt by the Borrower of notice from the Administrative Agent stating that such excess exists or (B) the date the Borrower delivers (or was required to deliver) a Borrowing Base Certificate indicating the existence of such excess, deliver to the Administrative Agent for prompt distribution to each Lender a written plan acceptable to all of the Lenders to eliminate such excess. If such excess is not eliminated within ninety (90) days of the earlier of receipt by the Borrower of such notice or the date the Borrower delivers (or was required to deliver) such Borrowing Base Certificate, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder. All payments under this subsection (b)(ii) shall be applied to pay all amounts of excess principal outstanding on the applicable Revolving Loans and any applicable Reimbursement Obligations in accordance with the last sentence of Section 3.2., and the remainder, if any, shall be paid to the Borrower or whomever else may be legally entitled to such remainder.

Section 2.7. Late Charges.

So long as the Post-Default Rate is not payable with respect to the Obligations as provided in Section 2.3., if any payment required under this Agreement is not paid within fifteen (15) days after it becomes due and payable, the Borrower shall pay a late charge for late payment to compensate the Lenders for the loss of use of funds and for the expenses of handling the delinquent payment, in an amount equal to three percent (3%) of such delinquent payment. Such late charge shall be paid in any event not later than the due date of the next subsequent installment of principal and/or interest. In the event the maturity of the Obligations hereunder occurs or is accelerated pursuant to Section 11.2., this Section shall apply only to payments overdue prior to the time of such acceleration. This Section shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the Lenders' right to accelerate payment of any of the Obligations as permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.8. Continuation.

So long as there exists (i) no Default under subsections (a), (b)(i), (b)(ii), (e) or (f) of Section 11.1 of this Agreement, (ii) no other Default as to which Administrative Agent has given Borrower notice, or (iii) no Event of Default, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount, and each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 9:00 a.m. on the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loan and portion thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month.

Section 2.9. Conversion.

So long as there exists (i) no Default under subsections (a), (b)(i), (b)(ii), (e) or (f) of Section 11.1 of this Agreement, (ii) no other Default as to which Administrative Agent has given Borrower notice, or (iii) no Event of Default, the Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower's giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication, Convert all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type. Each Conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount, and upon Conversion of a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall pay accrued interest to the date of Conversion on the principal amount so Converted in accordance with Section 2.3. Any Conversion of a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 9:00 a.m. one Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans and three (3) Business Days prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into LIBOR Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

Section 2.10. Notes.

(a) Notes. The Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit J (each a "Revolving Note"), payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Revolving Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.

(b) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed, mutilated, inappropriately cancelled or inappropriately marked, and (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, inappropriate cancellation or inappropriate marking, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at no expense to Borrower execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note, identical in form and substance and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed, mutilated, inappropriately cancelled or inappropriately marked Note.

Section 2.11. Voluntary Reductions of the Revolving Commitment.

The Borrower may terminate or reduce the unused amount of the Revolving Commitments at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior notice to the Administrative Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (which in the case of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall not be less than $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount in the aggregate) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent ("Commitment Reduction Notice"). Any such reduction shall reduce the Revolving Commitments of all Lenders on a pro rata basis. Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed termination or Revolving Commitment reduction. The Revolving Commitments, once reduced pursuant to this Section, may not be increased. The Borrower shall pay all interest and fees, on the Loans accrued to the date of such reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, including but not limited to any applicable compensation due to each Lender in accordance with Section 5.4. of this Agreement.

Section 2.12. Extension of Maturity Date.

Generally. The Borrower may request that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders extend the current Maturity Date by one (1) year by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent at least ninety (90) days but not more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the current Maturity Date, a written request for such extension. The Administrative Agent shall forward to each Lender a copy of such request delivered to the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt thereof. Subject to satisfaction of the following conditions, the Maturity Date shall be extended for one year: (a) immediately prior to such extension and immediately after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall or would exist and (b) the Borrower shall have paid the Fees payable under Section 3.5.(d). The Maturity Date may be extended only one time pursuant to this Section 2.12.

Section 2.13. Expiration or Maturity Date of Letters of Credit Past Maturity Date.

If on the date the Revolving Commitments are terminated (whether voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder, the Borrower shall, on such date, either (a) pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, an amount of money equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter(s) of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, or (b) deliver to the Administrative Agent one or more letters of credit, each to be in form and substance, and issued by financial institutions, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, having an aggregate stated amount at least equal to the Stated Amount of all such Letters of Credit less any amounts paid to the Administrative Agent to be held as cash collateral under the immediately preceding clause (a). If a drawing pursuant to any such Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the payment made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with respect to such presentment. If no drawing occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Borrower (or to whomever else may be legally entitled thereto) the monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account with respect to such outstanding Letter of Credit, together with all interest accrued thereon, on or before the date thirty (30) days after the expiration date of such Letter of Credit.

Section 2.14. Amount Limitations.

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall be required to make any Loan, and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit, if immediately after the making of such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, would exceed the Maximum Loan Availability.

Section 2.15. Funds Transfer Disbursements.

(a) Generally. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Transfer Authorizer Designation Form. The Borrower agrees to be bound by any transfer request: (i) authorized or transmitted by the Borrower; or, (ii) made in the Borrower's name and accepted by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer instructions, even if not properly authorized by the Borrower. The Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or identifying bank account number or name provided by the Borrower to effect a wire of funds transfer even if the information provided by the Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent will inform Borrower of any errors actually known by Administrative Agent in any information provided by Borrower, but is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer or requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, the Borrower agrees that no matter how many times the Administrative Agent takes these actions the Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the transfer disbursement procedures authorized under this provision, the Loan Documents, or any agreement between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower or between any Lender and the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of any errors in the transfer of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer requests within fourteen (14) days after the Administrative Agent's confirmation to the Borrower of such transfer.

(b) Funds Transfer. The Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made. The Administrative Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the terms of this authorization (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or prohibited by any Governmental Authority; (iii) cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline, or (iv) otherwise cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Applicable Law or regulation.

(c) Limitation of Liability. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be liable to the Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which the Borrower's transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond Administrative Agent's, Issuing Bank's or any Lender's control, or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (x) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (y) the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or the Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor any Lender makes any representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.

Article III. Payments, Fees and Other General Provisions

Section 3.1. Payments.

(a) Payments by Borrower. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest, Fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Subject to Section 11.5., the Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement shall be paid to the Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by the Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of the Issuing Bank. In the event the Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, within one Business Day of receipt of such amounts, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment for the period of such extension.

(b) Presumptions Regarding Payments by Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand that amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 3.2. Pro Rata Treatment.

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from Lenders under Section 2.1.(a) and 2.2.(e) shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees under Sections 3.5.(a), and 3.5.(b), the first sentence of 3.5.(c) and 3.5.(d) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Commitments under Section 2.11. shall be applied to the respective Revolving Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments in effect at the time such Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Revolving Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments; (c) each payment of interest on Revolving Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; (d) the Conversion and Continuation of Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Section 5.1.) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Loans and the then current Interest Period for each Lender's portion of each Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; and (e) the Lenders' participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.2., shall be in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentage. Any payment or prepayment of principal or interest made (i)(A) during the existence of a Default or Event of Default or (B) pursuant to Section 2.6.(b)(ii), shall be made for the account of the Lenders in accordance with the order set forth in Section 11.5. and (ii) pursuant to Section 2.6.(b)(i), shall be made for the account of the Lenders holding Revolving Commitments (or, if the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, holding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities) in accordance with the order set forth in Section 11.5.

Section 3.3. Sharing of Payments, Etc.

If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of banker's lien, counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender (other than any payment in respect of Specified Derivatives Obligations) not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 11.5., such Lender shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2. or Section 11.5., as applicable. To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of banker's lien, counterclaim or similar rights with the respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

Section 3.4. Several Obligations.

No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

Section 3.5. Fees.

(a) Closing Fee. On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each Lender all loan fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or each Lender, as applicable.

(b) Facility Fees. During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Maturity Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an unused facility fee equal to the sum of the average daily amount by which the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments (as they may be reduced from time to time pursuant to Section 2.11.) exceeds (i) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities, multiplied by (ii) 0.35 percent (0.35%) per annum.

Such fee shall be computed on a daily basis for each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the term of this Agreement and on the Maturity Date or any earlier date of termination of the Revolving Commitments or reduction of the Revolving Commitments to zero.

(c) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) to and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is cancelled or (y) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full; provided, however, in no event shall the aggregate amount of such fee in respect of any Letter of Credit be less than $1,000. In addition to such fees, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank solely for its own account, a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit at the rate equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum on the daily average Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, in no event shall the amount of such fronting fee in respect of any Letter of Credit be less than $1,500. The fees provided for in the immediately preceding two sentences shall be non-refundable and payable in arrears (i) quarterly on the first day of January, April, July and October, (ii) on the Maturity Date, (iii) on the date the Revolving Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and (iv) thereafter from time to time on demand of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuing Bank from time to time on demand all commissions, charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged by the Issuing Bank from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, drawings, amendments and other transactions relating thereto.

(d) Extension Fee. If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.12., the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender an extension fee equal to 0.35 percent (0.35%) of the amount of such Lender's Revolving Commitment (whether or not utilized) as of the day immediately prior to the then current Maturity Date (before giving effect to such extension). Such fee shall be paid to the Administrative Agent prior to, and as a condition to, such extension.

(e) Administrative and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other fees of the Administrative Agent as provided in the Fee Letter and as may be otherwise agreed to in writing from time to time.

Section 3.6. Computations.

Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed; provided, however, Fees in respect of Letters of Credit shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 3.7. Usury.

In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.3.(a)(i) and (ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or "breakage" charges, increased cost charges, attorneys' fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and non-refundable when due.

Section 3.8. Statements of Account.

The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error. The failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 3.9. Defaulting Lenders; Insolvent Lenders.

(a) Generally. If for any reason any Lender (a "Defaulting Lender") shall fail or refuse to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party within the time period specified for performance of such obligation or, if no time period is specified, if such failure or refusal continues for a period of five (5) Business Days after notice from the Administrative Agent, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Borrower under this Agreement or Applicable Law, such Defaulting Lender's right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Administrative Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of Requisite Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. If for any reason a Lender fails to make timely payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower prompt notice of the failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of any Loan required to be made available by such Lender. Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender's Loans shall not be paid to such Defaulting Lender and shall be held uninvested by the Administrative Agent and either applied against the purchase price of such Loans under the following subsection (b) or paid to such Defaulting Lender upon the Defaulting Lender's curing of its default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the remedies set forth in this Section 3.9(a) will not limit Borrower’s rights and remedies at law or in equity with respect to a Defaulting Lender.

(b) Purchase or Cancellation of Defaulting Lender's Revolving Commitment. Any Lender who is not a Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire by assignment all of a Defaulting Lender's Commitments. Any Lender desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no sooner than two (2) Business Days and not later than five (5) Business Days after such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender. If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender's Commitments in proportion to the Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right. If after such fifth Business Day, the Lenders have not elected to acquire all of the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, either (i) demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitments to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6.(c) for the purchase price provided for below or (ii) terminate the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, whereupon such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any right or obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. Upon any such assignment, the Defaulting Lender's interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder (but not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents to the extent the same relate to the period prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including an appropriate Assignment and Assumption Agreement and, notwithstanding Section 13.6.(c), shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $10,000. The purchase price for the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal to the amount of the principal balance of the Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender. Prior to payment of such purchase price to a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall apply against such purchase price any amounts retained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the penultimate sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (a). The Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any amount owed to it by the Borrower under the Loan Documents which accrued prior to the date of the default by the Defaulting Lender, to the extent the same are received by the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of the Borrower. There shall be no recourse against any Lender or the Administrative Agent for the payment of such sums except to the extent of the receipt of payments from any other party or in respect of the Loans.

(c) Insolvent Lenders. No Insolvent Lender shall have any right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any vote in respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Administrative Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of Requisite Lenders or Supermajority Lenders.

Section 3.10. Taxes; Foreign Lenders.

(a) Taxes Generally. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future excise, stamp or other taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding (i) franchise taxes, (ii) any taxes (other than withholding taxes) that would not be imposed but for a connection between the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or a Lender and the jurisdiction imposing such taxes (other than a connection arising solely by virtue of the activities of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender pursuant to or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (iii) any taxes imposed on or measured by the Issuing Bank's or any Lender's assets, net income, receipts or branch profits and (iv) any taxes arising after the Agreement Date solely as a result of or attributable to a Lender changing its designated Lending Office after the date such Lender becomes a party hereto (such non-excluded items being collectively called "Taxes"). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

(i) pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

(ii) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and

(iii) pay to the Administrative Agent for its account or the account of the applicable Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

(b) Tax Indemnification. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for its account or the account of the Issuing Bank or respective Lender, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

(c) Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or Participant organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States of America becomes a party hereto, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender or Participant establishing that payments to it hereunder and under the Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax and (ii) not subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Code. Each such Lender or Participant shall (x) deliver further copies of such forms or other appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such forms expire or become obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered to the Borrower and (y) obtain such extensions of the time for filing, and renew such forms and certifications thereof, as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount pursuant to last sentence of subsection (a) above to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America or the Administrative Agent, if it is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, if such Lender, Participant or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, fails to comply with the requirements of this subsection. If any such Lender or Participant fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from such payment to such Lender such amounts as are required by the Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including all fees and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel and the allocated cost of internal legal services and all disbursements of internal counsel) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

(d) USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance. In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56), prior to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such Lender or Participant shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law.

Article IV. Borrowing Base Properties

Section 4.1. Eligibility of Properties.

(a) Initial Borrowing Base Properties. The Properties identified on Schedule 4.1 shall, on the Effective Date, be Borrowing Base Properties, and the Borrowing Base Value initially attributable to such Property shall be as approved by the Lenders and set forth on Schedule 4.1.

(b) Additional Borrowing Base Properties. If after the Effective Date the Borrower desires that the Lenders include any additional Property as a Borrowing Base Property in calculations of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall so notify the Administrative Agent in writing. No Property will be evaluated by the Lenders unless and until the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:

(i) An executive summary of the Property including, at a minimum, the following information relating to such Property: (A) a description of such Property, such description to include the age, location, site plan, current occupancy rate and physical condition of such Property; (B) if such Property is being acquired, the purchase price paid or to be paid for such Property; (C) the current and projected condition of the regional market and specific submarket in which such Property is located; and (D) the current projected capital plans and, if applicable, current renovation plans for such Property;

(ii) An operating statement for such Property audited or certified by a representative of the Borrower as being true and correct in all material respects and prepared in accordance with GAAP for the previous three fiscal years, provided that, with respect to any period such Property was owned by the Borrower or a Subsidiary for less than three (3) years, such information shall only be required to be delivered to the extent reasonably available to the Borrower and such certification may be based upon the best of the Borrower's knowledge and provided further, that if such Property has been operating for less than three years, the Borrower shall provide such projections and other information concerning the anticipated operation of such Property as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; and

(iii) A current rent roll for such Property certified by a representative of the Borrower as being true and correct in all material respects, and three-year occupancy history of such Property certified by a representative of the Borrower to be true and correct, provided that, with respect to any period such Property was owned by the Borrower or a Subsidiary for less than three (3) years, such information shall only be required to be delivered to the extent reasonably available to the Borrower and such certification may be based upon the best of the Borrower's knowledge.

If, after receipt and review of the foregoing documents and information described in clauses (i)-(iii) above, the Administrative Agent is prepared to recommend acceptance of such Property as a Borrowing Base Property, the Administrative Agent will so notify the Borrower and each Lender within ten (10) Business Days after receipt and review of all of such documents and information, which notice to Lenders shall include copies of said documents and information. Within ten (10) Business Days from the date on which a Lender receives such notice from the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender conditionally approves of such Property as a Borrowing Base Property subject only to such Lender's approval of the documents described in clauses (iv)-(xvi) below and applicable Appraisal and other items as provided in this subsection (b) and the immediately following subsection (c). If a Lender fails to give such notice prior to the expiration of such 10-Business Day period, such Lender shall be deemed to have conditionally approved such Property as a Borrowing Base Property. If the Requisite Lenders (which for purposes of this subsection (b) must include the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) have not conditionally approved such Property as a Borrowing Base Property, the approval process shall terminate. If the Requisite Lenders give conditional approval of a Property as a Borrowing Base Property, then Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall promptly forward copies thereof to all Lenders:

(iv) A copy of a recent ALTA Owner's Policy of Title Insurance ("Owner's Policy") covering such Property showing the identity of the fee titleholder thereto and all matters of record;

(v) Copies of all documents of record reflected in Schedule A and Schedule B of the Owner's Policy and a copy of the most recent real estate tax xxxx and notice of assessment;

(vii) If not adequately covered by the survey certification provided for above, a certificate from a licensed engineer or other professional satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Property is not located in a Special Flood Hazard Area as defined by the Federal Insurance Administration;

(viii) A "Phase I" environmental assessment of such Property not more than twelve (12) months old, which report (1) has been prepared by an environmental engineering firm acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (2) complies with the requirements contained in the Administrative Agent 's guidelines adopted from time to time by the Administrative Agent to be used in its lending practice generally and any other environmental assessments or other reports relating to such Property, including any "Phase II" environmental assessment prepared or recommended by such environmental engineering firm to be prepared for such Property;

(xiii) Plans and specifications for such Property, provided the same shall only be required to the extent reasonably available to the Borrower;

(xiv) Final certificates of occupancy and any other Governmental Approvals relating to such Property;

(c) Appraisal; Final Approval. Upon the earlier of (i) written request by the Borrower or (ii) the Requisite Lenders' conditional approval of a Property as a Borrowing Base Property pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (b), if Administrative Agent does not then have a current Appraisal of such Property in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall commission, at the Borrower's expense, an Appraisal of such Property, to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such Appraisal, the Administrative Agent shall review such Appraisal and shall determine the Appraised Value of such Property. If after such review and determination the Administrative Agent is unwilling to recommend acceptance of such Property as a Borrowing Base Property, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders and the consideration by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of such Property shall cease. If after such review and determination the Administrative Agent remains prepared to recommend acceptance of such Property as a Borrowing Base Property, the Administrative Agent shall forward a copy of such Appraisal to the Lenders together with notice of such Appraised Value. Within ten (10) Business Days of the date on which a Lender has received all of the items referred to in this subsection and the immediately preceding subsection (b), such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such Lender accepts such Property as a Borrowing Base Property. If a Lender fails to give such notice within such time period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved such Property as a Borrowing Base Property and to have approved such Appraisal and Appraised Value. Such Property shall become a Borrowing Base Property upon written approval of the Requisite Lenders (which for purposes of this subsection (c) must include the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) and upon execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of (i) a Borrowing Base Certificate showing the Borrowing Base after inclusion of such Property as a Borrowing Base Property, (ii) if such property is owned by a Subsidiary of the Borrower, all of the items required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent under Section 8.14. if not previously delivered, (iii) the documents and items described in Section 6.3., and (iv) such other items or documents as may be appropriate under the circumstances, including updates of the documents described in the immediately preceding subsections (b)(i), (b)(ii), (b)(iii), (b)(vi), and (b)(viii), and satisfaction of all other closing requirements reasonably imposed by the Administrative Agent.

Section 4.2. Release of Properties.

From time to time the Borrower may request, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, that any Borrowing Base Property, or portion thereof, be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents applicable thereto, which release (the "Property Release") shall be effected by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent determines all of the following conditions are satisfied as of the date of such Property Release:

(a) Subject to the terms of Section 11.10., no Default or Event of Default exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to such Property Release and the reduction in the Borrowing Base by reason of the release of such Property;

(b) The Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating on a pro forma basis, and the Administrative Agent shall have determined to its satisfaction (which determination may be based on Appraisals ordered pursuant to Section 4.3.(b)(iii)), that the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, together with the Letter of Credit Liabilities, will not exceed the Borrowing Base after giving effect to such request and any prepayment to be made and/or the acceptance of any Property as an additional or replacement Borrowing Base Property to be given concurrently with such request;

(c) The Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all documents and instruments reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Property Release including, without limitation, the following:

(i) in the case of the release of a portion of a Borrowing Base Property, a survey of such portion;

(ii) the quitclaim deed, release, partial release or other instrument to be used to effect such Property Release; and

(iii) an appropriate endorsement to the mortgagee title insurance policy in effect with respect to the affected Borrowing Base Property;

(d) after giving effect to such Property Release, each of Post Oak Mall, Georgia Square Mall, Madison Square Mall and Richland Mall (or any regional mall which is a Borrowing Base Property and is determined by the Requisite Lenders, which for purposes of this subsection (d) must include the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent, to be of equivalent financial strength to any of the foregoing malls), will remain as a Borrowing Base Property in the Borrowing Base; provided, however, if at the time of such Property Release, the Borrowing Base Properties consist only of the malls referred to above, then the provisions of this clause (d) shall not apply; and

(e) The Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that the market values of the remaining Borrowing Base Properties have not materially deteriorated since the respective dates of acceptance as Borrowing Base Properties.

In connection with any Property Release of an entire Borrowing Base Property owned by a Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent shall release such Subsidiary from the Guaranty to which it is a party so long as no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence or would occur as a result of such release. Except as set forth in this Section 4.2., no Borrowing Base Property shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents applicable thereto.

Section 4.3. Frequency of Appraisals.

The Appraised Value of a Borrowing Base Property shall be determined or redetermined, as applicable, under each of the following circumstances:

(a) In connection with the acceptance of a Property as a Borrowing Base Property the Administrative Agent will determine the Appraised Value thereof as provided in Section 4.1.; or

(b) From time to time upon at least five (5) Business Days written notice to the Borrower and at the Borrower's expense (except as provided below), the Administrative Agent may (and shall at the direction of the Requisite Lenders) redetermine the Appraised Value of a Borrowing Base Property (based on a new Appraisal obtained by the Administrative Agent) in any of the following circumstances:

(i) if a material adverse change occurs with respect to such Borrowing Base Property, including, without limitation, a material deterioration in the Net Operating Income of such Property, a major casualty at such Property that is not fully covered by insurance, a material condemnation of any part of such Property, a material change in the market conditions affecting such Property or a material decrease in the leasing level of such Property; or

(c) At any time and from time to time but no more than once prior to the initial Maturity Date, the Administrative Agent may (and shall at the written direction of the Requisite Lenders) redetermine the Appraised Value of each Borrowing Base Property (based on a new Appraisal obtained by the Administrative Agent), all at the Borrower's expense; or

(d) At any time and from time to time but no more than once during any one (1) year period, the Administrative Agent may (and shall at the written direction of the Requisite Lenders) redetermine the Appraised Value of each Borrowing Base Property (based on a new Appraisal obtained by the Administrative Agent), all at the Lenders' expense.

Section 4.4. Frequency of Calculations of Borrowing Base.

Initially, the Borrowing Base shall be the amount set forth as such in the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered under Section 6.1. Thereafter, the Borrowing Base shall be the amount set forth as such in the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered from time to time under Article IX. or Section 4.2.(b). Any increase in the Borrowing Base Value of a Borrowing Base Property shall become effective as of the next determination of the Borrowing Base as provided in this Section, provided that prior to such date of determination (a) if such increase is the result of an increase in (i) the Appraised Value of such Borrowing Base Property, the Requisite Lenders shall have given their written approval of such increase or (ii) the Permanent Loan Estimate for such Borrowing Base Property, the applicable Borrowing Base Certificate substantiates such increase and (b) the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent the following: (i) if the Borrowing Base Property is not located in a Tie-In Jurisdiction and such increase is the result of an increase in the Appraised Value of such Borrowing Base Property, an endorsement to the title insurance policy in favor of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Borrowing Base Property increasing the coverage amount thereof as related to such Borrowing Base Property to not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Appraised Value (based on the "stabilized value" of such Borrowing Base Property and excluding the value of personal property) for such Borrowing Base Property and (ii) if the Borrowing Base Property is located in a Tie-In Jurisdiction, an endorsement to the title insurance policy in favor of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Borrowing Base Property increasing the coverage amount thereof as related to such Borrowing Base Property to not less than the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to such Borrowing Base Property, as well as endorsements to all other existing title insurance policies issued to the Administrative Agent with respect to all other Borrowing Base Properties located in Tie-In Jurisdictions reflecting an increase in the aggregate insured amount under the "tie-in" endorsements to an amount equal to the Borrowing Base (including the Borrowing Base Property which experienced the increase in Borrowing Base Value) but in no event in an amount in excess of the aggregate amount of the Commitments.

Article V. Yield Protection, Etc.

Section 5.1. Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender in the Loan determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender's or such corporation's Commitments or its making or maintaining Loans below the rate which such Lender or such corporation controlling such Lender could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of such Lender or such corporation with regard to capital), then the Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) calendar days after written demand by such Lender, pay to such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation controlling such Lender to the extent that such Lender determines such increase in capital is allocable to such Lender's obligations hereunder.

(b) Additional Costs. In addition to, and not in limitation of the immediately preceding clause (a), the Borrower shall following fifteen (15) days written demand therefor pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender such amounts as such Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it reasonably determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Loans (or Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) or its obligation to make any LIBOR Loans (or any Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans (or such Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its LIBOR Loans (or Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) or its Commitments (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"), resulting from any Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans (or any such Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) or its Commitments (other than taxes imposed on or measured by the overall net income of such Lender or of its Lending Office for any of such LIBOR Loans (or such Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or such Lending Office), or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (including without limitation, Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other category of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans (or Base Rate Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate) is determined) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitment of such Lender hereunder) or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender's policies with respect to capital adequacy).

(c) Lender's Suspension of LIBOR Loans. Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding subsection (a) and (b), if by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5. shall apply).

(d) Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit. Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of any Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any tax, reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Bank of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by the Issuing Bank or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay immediately to the Issuing Bank or, in the case of such Lender, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by the Issuing Bank or such Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Bank or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

(e) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender shall fail to give such notice within forty-five (45) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such event, then the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender, as the case may be, shall only be entitled to compensation under any of the preceding subsections for compensable amounts attributable to such event arising following the date the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge of such event. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of the Issuing Bank or a Lender to the Administrative Agent as well) a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request for compensation under this Section. Determinations by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 5.2. Suspension of LIBOR Loans.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:

(a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein or is otherwise unable to determine LIBOR, or

(b) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

Section 5.3. Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender's obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, in each case, until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5. shall be applicable).

Section 5.4. Compensation.

The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expense attributable to:

(a) any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

(b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article 6.2. to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.

Not in limitation of the foregoing, such compensation shall include, without limitation; in the case of a LIBOR Loan, an amount equal to the then present value of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan for the remainder of the Interest Period at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan, less (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date on which such LIBOR Loan was repaid, prepaid or Converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, Convert or Continue such LIBOR Loan, as applicable, calculating present value by using as a discount rate LIBOR quoted on such date. Upon the Borrower's request (made through the Administrative Agent) any Lender seeking compensation under this Section shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Any such statement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 5.5. Treatment of Affected Loans.

If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.1.(c), Section 5.2., or Section 5.3. then such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 5.1.(c), Section 5.2., or Section 5.3. on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1., Section 5.2., or Section 5.3. that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender's LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender's LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1.(c) or 5.3. that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender's LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender's Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 5.6. Affected Lenders.

If (a) a Lender (other than the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent) requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.10. or 5.1., and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender (other than the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent) to make LIBOR Loans that are Revolving Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans that are Revolving Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.1.(c) or 5.3. but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the Borrower may demand that such Lender (the "Affected Lender"), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its Commitments to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6.(c) for a purchase price equal to the aggregate principal balance of Loans then owing to the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower's sole cost and expenses and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders; provided, however, the Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse or otherwise pay an Affected Lender's administrative or legal costs incurred as a result of the Borrower's exercise of its rights under this Section. The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower's obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 3.10. or 5.1. with respect to any matters or events existing on or prior to the date an Affected Lender ceases to be a party to this Agreement.

Section 5.7. Change of Lending Office.

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.10., 5.1. or 5.3. to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.

Section 5.8. Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.

Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article V. shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article.

(d) So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of the balances in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account as exceed the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities at such time. When all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and no Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(e) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such reasonable fees as the Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative Agent's administration of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein.

Section 11.7. Performance by Administrative Agent.

If the Borrower shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 11.8. Rights Cumulative.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the Specified Derivatives Providers under this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letter and Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law. In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the Specified Derivatives Providers may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any of the Lenders or any of the Specified Derivatives Providers in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

Section 11.9. Curing Defaults Under Security Documents.

The Lenders agree that the Borrower may cure a Default occurring under Section 11.1.(b)(ii) relating to any Security Document by causing the Borrowing Base Property to which such Security Document relates to be released from the Liens of the applicable Security Document in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.; provided, however, the provisions of this Section shall not apply (a) to a Default the circumstances giving rise to which constitute a Default or Event of Default under any other provision of Section 11.1. or (b) if, after giving effect to such release, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities would exceed the Borrowing Base.

Section 11.10. Permitted Deficiency.

(a) Generally. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, none of the following events shall constitute a Default or Event of Default, so long as the conditions of the immediately following subsection (b) are satisfied:

(i) failure of the Borrower or any other Person owning a Borrowing Base Property to:

(A) keep such Borrowing Base Property or any portion thereof in the condition required under Section 4.6 of the Security Deed applicable thereto;

(B) to pay any Lien or other encumbrances on any portion of such Borrowing Base Property in the manner required under Section 4.5 of the Security Deed applicable thereto;

(C) to comply with requirements of Applicable Law applicable to any portion of such Borrowing Base Property as required under Section 3.9 of the Security Deed applicable thereto;

(D) to prevent alterations to such Borrowing Base Property as required under Section 10.13. of this Agreement;

(E) to replace "Fixtures" or "Personalty" required under, and as such terms are defined in, Section 5.3 of the Security Deed applicable thereto; or

(F) to deposit with the Administrative Agent any "Casualty Completion Deposit" or "Escrowed Sums" required under, and as such terms are defined in, the Security Deed applicable thereto; or

(ii) the existence of any non-consensual Lien on any of the Collateral not permitted by Section 8.6. of this Agreement or by the applicable terms of the Security Documents.

If the section numbering of a Security Deed differs from the section numbering of the form of Security Deed attached hereto as Exhibit K, the references above to specific sections of a Security Deed shall be deemed to refer to the section in such Security Deed which most closely corresponds to the text of the referenced section of the form of Security Deed attached hereto.

(b) The effectiveness of the immediately preceding subsection is subject to satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

(i) the sum of the following amounts (such amounts being the "Permitted Deficiency") does not exceed $10,000,000:

(A) the cost of correcting all failures described in the immediately preceding subsection (a)(i), as determined by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion;

(B) the amount secured by Liens described in immediately preceding subsection (a)(ii); and

(C) the aggregate amount of unpaid "Casualty Completion Deposit" and "Escrowed Sums" required under, and as such terms are defined in, the Security Deeds applicable thereto.

(ii) None of the circumstances giving rise to the Permitted Deficiency would otherwise constitute a Default or Event of Default but for the application of this Section; and

(iii) The Borrower is taking steps to eliminate the circumstances giving rise to the Permitted Deficiency in a diligent manner, and in all events eliminates (or bonds off to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent) each such circumstances prior to the earlier of (A) sixty (60) days after receipt of notice of the existence of such circumstances from the Administrative Agent, or (B) the date which is five (5) days prior to the date on which any effected Borrowing Base Property to which any such circumstance relates could be sold for non-payment.

Article XII. The Administrative Agent

Section 12.1. Appointment and Authorization.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms "Agent", "Administrative Agent", "agent" and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article IX. that the Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Parent, the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.

Section 12.2. Xxxxx Fargo as Lender.

Xxxxx Fargo, as a Lender or as a Specified Derivatives Provider, as the case may be, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document and under any Specified Derivatives Contract, as the case may be, as any other Lender or Specified Derivatives Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Xxxxx Fargo in each case in its individual capacity. Xxxxx Fargo and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Loan Party, the Parent or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the Issuing Bank, other Lenders, or any other Specified Derivatives Providers. Further, the Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or any Specified Derivatives Contract, or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Issuing Bank, the other Lenders or any other Specified Derivatives Providers. The Issuing Bank and the Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Xxxxx Fargo or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Parent, the Borrower, other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

Section 12.3. Collateral Matters; Protective Advances.

(a) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, while no Event of Default exists, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to any of the Loan Documents.

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations and Specified Derivatives Obligations; (ii) as expressly permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 4.2.; and (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as this Agreement or any other Loan Document may expressly provide). Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section.

(c) Upon any sale and transfer of Collateral which is expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and upon at least five (5) Business Days' prior written request by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent's opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or Specified Derivatives Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of) all interests retained by the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, including (without limitation) the proceeds of such sale or transfer, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct all of the expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Specified Derivatives Providers or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent in this Section or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, and that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e) The Administrative Agent may make, and shall be reimbursed by the Lenders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares) to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower for, Protective Advances during any one calendar year with respect to each Property that is Collateral up to the sum of (i) amounts expended to pay real estate taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon such Property; (ii) amounts expended to pay insurance premiums for policies of insurance related to such Property; and (iii) $500,000. Protective Advances in excess of said sum during any calendar year for any Property that is Collateral shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all Protective Advances.

(f) By their acceptance of the benefits of the Security Documents, each Lender that is at any time itself a Specified Derivatives Provider, or having an Affiliate that is a Specified Derivatives Provider, hereby, for itself, and on behalf of any such Affiliate, in its capacity as a Specified Derivatives Provider, irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its collateral agent, to take such action as contractual representative on such Specified Derivative's Provider's behalf and to exercise such powers under the Security Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Section 12.3., Section 12.4. and any Security Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; provided, that this subsection (f) shall not affect any of the terms of a Specified Derivatives Contract or restrict a Specified Derivatives Provider from taking any action permitted by a Specified Derivatives Contract. For the avoidance of doubt, all references in this Section 12.3. to "Lender" or "Lenders" shall be deemed to include each Lender (and Affiliate thereof) in its capacity as a Specified Derivatives Provider.

Section 12.4. Post-Foreclosure Plans.

If all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by the Administrative Agent or a nominee, affiliate or Subsidiary of the Administrative Agent as a result of a foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of the Obligations and/or Specified Derivatives Obligations, the title to any such Collateral, or any portion thereof, shall be held in the name of the Administrative Agent or a nominee, affiliate or Subsidiary of the Administrative Agent, as administrative agent, for the ratable benefit of all Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers. The Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Collateral (a "Post-Foreclosure Plan"), which shall be subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders. In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, the Administrative Agent shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Collateral acquired, and shall administer all transactions relating thereto, including, without limitation, employing a management agent, leasing agent and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents for the sale of such Collateral, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Collateral and paying the expenses of such Collateral. Actions taken by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral, which are not specifically provided for in the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan or reasonably incidental thereto, shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders by way of supplement to such Post-Foreclosure Plan. Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, leasing and sale of such Collateral. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall render or cause to be rendered to each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each Specified Derivatives Provider, on a monthly basis, an income and expense statement for such Collateral, and each Lender shall promptly contribute its Pro Rata Share of any operating loss for such Collateral, and such other expenses and operating reserves as the Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan. To the extent there is Net Operating Income from such Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers. All such distributions shall be made to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. The Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers acknowledge and agree that if title to any Collateral is obtained by the Administrative Agent or its nominee, such Collateral will not be held as a permanent investment but will be liquidated and the proceeds of such liquidation will be distributed in accordance with Section 11.5. as soon as practicable. The Administrative Agent shall undertake to sell such Collateral, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Requisite Lenders reasonably shall determine to be most advantageous to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers. Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Collateral in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall name the Administrative Agent, as administrative agent for the Lenders, as the beneficiary or mortgagee. In such case, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage or deed of trust defining the rights of the Lenders in the same Pro Rata Shares as provided hereunder, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to this Article insofar as the same is appropriate or applicable.

Section 12.5. Approvals of Lenders.

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender's determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent's recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

Section 12.6. Notice of Events of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default (excepting only a Default or Event of Default under Section 11.1(a)) unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a "notice of default". Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a "notice of default," the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

Section 12.7. Administrative Agent's Reliance.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower, any other Loan Party or the Parent), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party, the Parent or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender or the Issuing Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any Collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Specified Derivatives Providers in any such Collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 12.8. Indemnification of Administrative Agent.

Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender's respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a "Lender") in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, "Indemnifiable Amounts"); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel to the Administrative Agent but excluding the allocated costs, fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent's in-house counsel and legal staff and any expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with its review of any Appraisal or environmental, structural or engineering report) reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any "lender liability" suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

Section 12.9. Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to the Issuing Bank or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Parent, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank or any Lender. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of the Parent, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Parent, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Parent, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or the Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Parent, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that the Administrative Agent's legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or the Issuing Bank.

Section 12.10. Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. In the event of a material breach of its duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent may be removed as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents at any time by all of the Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) and the Borrower upon 30-day's prior notice. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders (which, in the case of the removal of the Administrative Agent as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, shall be determined without regard to the Commitment of the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Lender's removal of the current Administrative Agent, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

Section 12.11. Titled Agents.

Each Documentation Agent, the Syndication Agent and each Co-Lead Arranger (each a "Titled Agent") in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles given to the Titled Agents are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

Each Indemnified Party shall use its reasonable efforts to give Borrower as much advance notice of anticipated fees, expenses and costs as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances, but failure to give such notice shall not absolve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to pay the same.

None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower and the Parent hereby waive, release, and agree not to xxx any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower or the Parent in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the Fee Letter, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The Borrower and the Parent hereby waive, release, and agree not to xxx the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or any of the Administrative Agent's, the Issuing Bank's or any Lender's affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letter, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

Section 13.18. Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter embody the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no oral agreements among the parties hereto.

Section 13.19. Construction, Conflict of Terms.

The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower, the Parent and each Lender acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower, each Lender and the Parent. In the event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any of the other Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall govern; provided, however, that any term or provision of any Security Document applicable to the Collateral shall be deemed to be supplemental to, and not in conflict with, the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 13.20. Headings.

The paragraph and section headings in this Agreement are provided for convenience of reference only and shall not affect its construction or interpretation.

Section 13.21. Limitation of Liability of Borrower's General Partner.

Subject to the exceptions and qualifications described below, the General Partner, shall not be personally liable for the payment of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) if an Event of Default occurs, nothing contained herein shall in any way prevent or hinder the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the enforcement or foreclosure of any Lien securing any of the Obligations, or in the pursuit or enforcement of any right, remedy or judgment against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or any of their respective assets; and (b) the General Partner shall be fully liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to the same extent that the General Partner would be liable absent the foregoing provisions of this Section: (i) for fraud or willful misrepresentation by the Borrower, the General Partner, its or their Affiliates or predecessor general partner (i.e., the Parent), (to the full extent of losses suffered by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by reason of such fraud or willful misrepresentations); (ii) for the retention of any rental income or other income in excess of operating expenses and capital expenses arising with respect to any Borrowing Base Property or any other Collateral and collected by the Borrower after the Administrative Agent has given the Borrower notice (or any Senior Officer of the Borrower has knowledge) that an Event of Default exists and, as a result of such Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender have elected to exercise any of their rights or remedies available to them as a result thereof (to the full extent of the rental income or other income in excess of such operating expenses and capital expenses collected by the Borrower after the giving of any such notice or obtaining of such knowledge); (iii) for the fair market value, as of the time of the giving of any notice (or obtaining of any such knowledge) referred to in the immediately preceding clause (ii), of any personalty or fixtures removed or disposed of by the Borrower (other than in accordance with the terms of the Security Deed encumbering the same) after the giving of any notice (or obtaining of any such knowledge) referred to in the immediately preceding clause (ii); and (iv) for the misapplication by the Borrower (contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents) of (x) any proceeds paid under any insurance policy by reason of damage, loss or destruction to any portion of the Collateral (to the full extent of such proceeds so misapplied); or (y) any proceeds or awards resulting from the condemnation of all or any part of any of the Collateral (to the full extent of such proceeds or awards so misapplied). No subsequent owner of Collateral shall be liable under the immediately preceding clause (b) for the acts and omissions of any prior owner, provided such subsequent owner and any partner therein or other party thereto is not an Affiliate of such prior owner or any partner therein or other party thereto, and further provided that the Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders have given their prior written approval to the transfer of such Collateral to such subsequent owner, if such approval is required under the Loan Documents.

Section 13.22. Limited Nature of Parent's Obligations.

THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE PARENT IS JOINING IN THE EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT SOLELY FOR THE LIMITED PURPOSE OF BEING BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THE SECTIONS SPECIFICALLY APPLICABLE TO THE PARENT, INCLUDING SECTIONS 8.1., 8.2., 8.6, 8.7., 8.12., 8.13., 9.6., 10.1., 10.4., 10.6., and 10.7. OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY DEFAULT OR EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT RESULTING FROM A BREACH BY THE PARENT OF, OR A MISREPRESENTATION BY THE PARENT UNDER OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO, ANY OF SUCH SECTIONS SHALL NOT CREATE ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY ON THE PART OF THE PARENT FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE OBLIGATIONS. NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION IS INTENDED TO LIMIT THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARENT UNDER THE PARENT GUARANTY.

Section 13.23. Limitation of Liability of Borrower's Directors, Officers, Etc.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that no director, officer, shareholder, employee or agent of the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower shall be held to any personal liability, jointly or severally, for any obligation of, or claim against, the Borrower.

Section 13.24. AMENDMENT, RESTATEMENT AND CONSOLIDATION; NO NOVATION.

THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT IS BEING AMENDED, RESTATED AND CONSOLIDATED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF THE PARTIES. THIS AGREEMENT MERELY AMENDS, MODIFIES, RESTATES AND CONSOLIDATES THE INDEBTEDNESS, LIABILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED BY THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (AS DEFINED IN THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT) AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE, AND IT IS THE EXPRESS INTENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT EFFECT, A NOVATION OF THE EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS, LIABILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS OWING BY THE BORROWER PURSUANT TO THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT. ALL SUCH INDEBTEDNESS, LIABILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS CONTINUE TO REMAIN OUTSTANDING AND EVIDENCED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
