purposes of this Agreement, each of the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as may be reasonably requested by another Party, at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party. | |||
10.5 | This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made in and wholly performed in such state. The Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court of the State of New York or the United States of America sitting in the City of New York, New York, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and the Parties hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the receiving Party shall not be prohibited from disclosing any such information (i) which is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the receiving Party, (ii) which was within the receiving Party’s possession on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure by the disclosing Party or is independently developed by the receiving Party, (iii) which the receiving Party is required to disclose by law or judicial order, provided that the receiving Party shall promptly notify the disclosing Party of such requirement, to the extent legally permissible, so that the disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or otherwise seek to protect the confidentiality of such information, (iv) to its examiners, accountants, auditors or attorneys, or (v) which was disclosed to the receiving Party without restriction on disclosure by a third party who has the lawful right to make such disclosure. | ||

10.14 | Except for a breach of the confidentiality obligations set forth herein or for damages resulting from intentional acts, no Party will be liable for indirect, exemplary, punitive, special or consequential damages. | ||
10.15 | No joint venture, partnership, agency, employment relationship or other joint enterprise is contemplated by this Agreement.

10.17 | If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof; and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement. Furthermore, in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as possible. | ||
10.18 | Buyer hereby acknowledges that all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement and the proceeds of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed after-acquired property of Seller subject to the security interest granted by Seller to Agent, on behalf of the secured parties under the Loan and Servicing Agreement. |
