At the NPA Funding Date, the Borrower will deliver to each Initial Purchaser the Initial Notes to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser in the form of a single Initial Note (or such greater number of Initial Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as such Purchaser may request) dated the date of the NPA Funding Date and registered in such Initial Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such Initial Purchaser to the Borrower or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in the Funds Flow Memorandum, for distribution, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Intercreditor Agreement or any other Financing Document (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), in accordance with the Funds Flow Memorandum. If at the NPA Funding Date, the Borrower shall fail to tender such Initial Notes to any Initial Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3.1, or any of the conditions specified in Article 4 shall not have been fulfilled to such Initial Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Initial Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement and each other Credit Document, without thereby waiving any rights such Initial Purchaser may have by reason of any of the conditions specified in Article 4 not having been fulfilled to such Purchaser’s satisfaction or such failure by the Borrower to tender such Initial Notes.

(e) the Source constitutes assets of a “plan(s)” (within the meaning of Part IV(h) of PTE 96-23 (the “INHAM Exemption”)) managed by an “in-house asset manager” or “INHAM” (within the meaning of Part IV(a) of the INHAM Exemption), the conditions of Part I(a), (g) and (h) of the INHAM Exemption are satisfied, neither the INHAM nor a person controlling or controlled by the INHAM (applying the definition of “control” in Part IV(d)(3) of the INHAM Exemption) owns a 10% or more interest in the Borrower and (i) the identity of such INHAM and (ii) the name(s) of the employee benefit plan(s) whose assets constitute the Source have been disclosed to the Borrower in writing pursuant to this clause (e);

Section 6.3 Notes Documents. By its acceptance of a Note, each Purchaser thereby agrees to the terms of the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Common Terms Agreement, the Pledge and Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement and, solely to the extent applicable, agrees to be bound by the obligations of holders of Notes (or beneficial owners thereof) contained therein.

(a) The entire unpaid principal balance of the Notes shall be due and paid at par and without payment of the Make-Whole Amount, or any premium, on the stated Maturity Date thereof. Any Additional Senior Notes shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the applicable Supplement.

(b) Each partial prepayment of the Notes (i) pursuant to Section 7.2 shall be applied to prepay the principal of the Initial Notes, and any installments of principal of any Additional Senior Notes, in order of maturity, and (ii) pursuant to Section 7.5 shall be applied to prepay the principal of the Initial Notes set forth on Schedule 7.1 that have elected to be redeemed and any installments of principal of any Additional Senior Notes that have elected to be redeemed in order of maturity.

The Borrower will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 7.2 not less than twenty (20) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment (unless the Borrower and the Required FRN Holders agree to another time period). Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 7.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two (2) Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Borrower shall deliver to each holder of Notes an Officer’s Certificate specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

Section 7.3 Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes of any Series pursuant to Section 7.2, the principal amount of the Notes of such Series to be prepaid shall be allocated pro rata among all the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Notes of such Series not theretofore called for prepayment.

Section 7.4 Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each optional prepayment of Notes of any Series pursuant to Section 7.2, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Borrower shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Borrower and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

Any such call for tenders in respect of clause (b) shall provide that the terms and conditions for such purchase shall be the same for all Notes except to the extent that the respective purchase prices differ for different Series of Notes as a result of differences in interest rates or payment or Maturity Dates. If an aggregate principal amount of the Notes is

tendered in respect of clause (b) which is greater than that offered to be purchased, such tendered Notes shall be purchased on a pro rata basis in the proportion, as nearly as practicable, which the principal amount of Notes tendered by each holder bears to the principal amount of Notes tendered by all holders of Notes and, if applicable, in order of maturity to all scheduled amortizations. The Borrower will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by the Borrower or any Affiliate pursuant to any tender, redemption, payment or prepayment of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

Section 7.7 Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Initial Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal; provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Initial Note, the principal of such Initial Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 7.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 10 of the Common Terms Agreement, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Initial Note is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury xxxx quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Initial Note.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields

- 11 -

have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Initial Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date; provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of such Initial Note, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 7.2, Section 9 of the Common Terms Agreement.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 7.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 9 of the Common Terms Agreement, as the context requires.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Additional Senior Notes, an amount calculated as set forth in the Supplement pursuant to which such Additional Senior Notes are issued.

Section 7.8 Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement, the Common Terms Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) subject to clause (b) of this Section, any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day, and (b) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on any scheduled repayment date or the maturity date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default under Section 9(a) of the Common Terms Agreement, the Required FRN Holders by written notice to the Borrower, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Borrower has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the applicable Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment or amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Common Terms Agreement and (c) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Article 11 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

- 13 -

ARTICLE 12

REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES

Section 12.1 Registration of Notes. The Borrower shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. If any holder of one or more Notes is a nominee, then (a) the name and address of the beneficial owner of such Note or Notes shall also be registered in such register as an owner and holder thereof and (b) at any such beneficial owner’s option, either such beneficial owner or its nominee may execute any amendment, waiver or consent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Borrower shall not be affected by any notice or actual knowledge to the contrary. The Borrower shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes.

Section 12.2 Transfer and Exchange of Notes. Upon surrender of any Note to the Borrower at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Article 17) for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Borrower shall execute and deliver, at the Borrower’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes of the same Series (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Schedule 1, in the case of the Initial Notes, or the note form established for the applicable Series. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Borrower may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp Tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $100,000; provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes of a Series, one Note of such Series may be in a denomination of less than $100,000. In connection with any transfer of Notes, the transferee shall enter into a Joinder substantially in the form attached to the Common Terms Agreement as Exhibit G and an accession agreement to the Intercreditor Agreement. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Section 6.2.

Section 12.3 Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Article 17) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

- 14 -

(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Borrower at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same Series, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

ARTICLE 13

PAYMENT ON NOTES

Section 13.1 Place of Payment. Subject to Section 13.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in accordance with Section 13.2. The Borrower may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Borrower in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

Section 13.2 Home Office Payment. So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 13.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Borrower will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest and all other amounts becoming due hereunder by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule B hereto or applicable Supplement or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Borrower in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Borrower made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Borrower at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Borrower pursuant to Section 13.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Borrower in exchange for a new Note pursuant to Section 12.2. The Borrower will afford the benefits of this Section 13.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 13.2.

All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the Common Terms Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Borrower under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Borrower and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

ARTICLE 16

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

Section 16.1 Requirements. Subject to Section16.4, this Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Borrower and the Required FRN Holders, and notwithstanding any provision of the Common Terms Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, no consent of any other Secured Party will be required for any such amendment, waiver or modification, except that:

(a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Article 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 or 20 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing; and

(b) no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding and affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Article 10 of the Common Terms Agreement relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest on the Notes or of the Make-Whole Amount in respect of the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any amendment or waiver, (iii) amend any of Article 7 hereof,

- 16 -

this Article 16, Sections 10 and 11.14 of the Common Terms Agreement or (iv) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of the Security Documents. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 16.1 to the contrary, any provision of the Common Terms Agreement incorporated by reference in this Agreement and amended or waived in accordance with the terms of the Common Terms Agreement shall be deemed waived or amended for purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower may enter into any Supplement for the issuance of one or more Series of Additional Notes consistent with Section 1.2 hereof without obtaining the consent of any holder of any other Series of Notes.

Section 16.2 Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

(a) Solicitation. The Borrower will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Credit Documents. The Borrower will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Article 16 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

(b) Payment. The Borrower will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of any Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or any other Credit Document unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to the holders of each Note then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to, or have a right to consent to, such waiver or amendment.

(c) Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent given pursuant to this Article 16 by a holder of a Note (other than an Affiliate of the Borrower) that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower in connection with such consent shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder.

Section 16.3 Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Article 16 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Borrower without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Borrower and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or any Credit Document shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of Notes.

- 17 -

Section 16.4 Notes Held by the Obligors, Etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Credit Documents, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Credit Documents to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by any Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding, other than with respect to (a) matters set forth in Sections 16.1(a) (as it relates to Articles 6 and 20) and (b)(i) and (b) matters set forth in Section 11.1(g) of the Common Terms Agreement to the extent provided therein.

ARTICLE 17

NOTICES

All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be given or made as specified pursuant to Section 11.2 of the Common Terms Agreement.

ARTICLE 18

REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS

This Agreement and all documents relating thereto (except certificates of Equity Interests in the Borrower and any other Collateral delivered to the Collateral Agent), including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Initial Purchaser at the NPA Funding Date (except the Initial Notes) and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Borrower agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Article 18 shall not prohibit the Borrower or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

ARTICLE 19

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

The provisions of Section 11.14 of the Common Terms Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein.

- 18 -

Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Article 19 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Borrower in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Borrower embodying the provisions of this Article 19. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, a Purchaser may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal or state income Tax treatment and Tax Structure of the Notes and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other Tax analyses) that are provided to the Purchaser related to such Tax treatment and Tax Structure. For this purpose, “Tax Structure” means any facts relevant to the U.S. federal or state income Tax treatment of the Notes but does not include information relating to the identity of the Borrower.

ARTICLE 20

SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a “Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Borrower, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement, the Common Terms Agreement and the other Credit Documents and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Article 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Article 20), in the Common Terms Agreement and in the other Credit Documents shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Borrower of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Article 20), in the Common Terms Agreement and in the other Credit Documents shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement, in the Common Terms Agreement and in the other Credit Documents.

ARTICLE 21

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 21.1 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

- 19 -

Section 21.2 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 21.3 Construction, Etc. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof.

Section 21.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

Section 21.5 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY DISPUTE OF CLAIMS ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 21.6 Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. The provisions of Section 11.12 of the Common Terms Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein, mutatis mutandis.

Section 21.7 Counsel. The Borrower has engaged Milbank, Tweed, Xxxxxx & XxXxxx LLP (“Milbank”) as legal counsel to the Borrower. Subject to any independent agreement between Milbank and any Purchaser or any Affiliate of any Purchaser, to the extent Milbank represents a Purchaser in matters unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Purchaser hereby waives any conflict of interest that may exist due to Milbank’s representation of the Borrower in the transactions contemplated hereby while simultaneously representing such Purchaser in such other unrelated matters. This waiver shall be binding on any holder of the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this waiver shall not extend to any adversarial or other dispute resolution proceedings involving any Purchaser that is a Milbank client. Nothing herein is intended to modify the terms of any existing or future engagement of Milbank by any Purchaser or its Affiliate.
