of the 1982 Bonds, the Prior Bonds or the Bonds would be allocated pursuant to
Section 103(b)(15) of the 1954 Code or Section 144(a)(10) of the Code, if the
amount allocated, when increased as provided in Section 103(b)(15)(A) of the

(j) The Company represents and warrants that none of the proceeds of
the 1982 Bonds issued subsequent to 1983 were used to acquire any property or an
interest therein (other than land or an interest in land) unless:
(i) the first use of such property was pursuant to such
acquisition; or
(ii) "rehabilitation expenditures," within the meaning of Section
103(b)(17)(c) of the 1954 Code with respect to that part of such property
constituting:
(A) a building (and the equipment therefor), equalled or exceeded
fifteen percent (15%) of that portion of the cost of acquiring such building
(and the equipment therefor) that was financed with the proceeds of such 1982
Bonds; and
(B) a facility other than a building, equalled or exceeded one hundred
percent (100%) of that portion of the cost of acquiring such facility that was
financed with the proceeds of such 1982 Bonds.
(1) The Issuer covenants and agrees that, prior to the issuance of the
Bonds, it shall duly elect to have the provisions of Section 103(b)(6)(D) of the
1954 Code and Section 144(a)(4) of the Code apply to such issue and such
election shall be made in accordance with the applicable Regulations or
procedures of the Internal Revenue Service. The Company covenants and agrees
that it shall furnish to the Issuer whatever information is necessary for the
Issuer to make such election and shall compile such supplemental statements and
other information as required by the applicable Regulations and procedures of
the Internal Revenue Service.
(l) The Company will comply with, and make all filings required by, all
effective rules, rulings or Regulations promulgated by the Department of the
Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service, with respect to obligations issued
under Section 103(b)(6) of the 1954 Code as a "small issue industrial
development bond" the interest on which is exempt from federal income taxation
or issued under Section 144(a) of the Code as a "qualified small issue bond" the
interest on which is excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes.
(m) The Company represents and warrants that the Facility does not
share common facilities (such as an enclosed mall, heating and cooling
facilities or parking facilities) with any other part of the same building,
other portions of an enclosed shopping mall or a strip of offices, stores or
warehouses that were financed with tax-exempt small issue industrial development
bonds under Section 103(b)(6) of the 1954 Code or qualified small issue bonds
under Section 144(a) of the Code.
(n) The Company represents and warrants that no rebate with respect to
the Prior Bonds is payable to the United States pursuant to the provisions of
Section 148 of the Code.
(o) The Issuer will comply with the information reporting
requirements of Section 149(e) of the Code with respect to the Bonds.
(p) The Company represents and warrants that the information contained
in the certificates or representations for the Company with respect to
compliance with the requirements of Section 149(e) of the Code, including the
information in Form 8038, is true and correct in all material respects.
(q) The Company shall take all action necessary to ensure that interest
on the Bonds, for federal income tax purposes, is not included in gross income
of the owners thereof.
Section 5.6. Indemnification. (a) The Company shall at all times
protect, indemnify and save harmless the Issuer and the Trustee (collectively,
the "Indemnitees") from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims,
damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses (hereinafter referred
to as "Damages"), including without limitation (1) all amounts paid in
settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened against the Indemnitees, if
such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, (2) all
expenses reasonably incurred in the investigation of, preparation for or defense
of any litigation, proceeding or investigation of any nature whatsoever,
commenced or threatened against the Company, the Facility or the Indemnitees,
(3) any judgments, penalties, fines, damages, assessments, indemnities or
contributions, and (4) the reasonable fees of attorneys, auditors, and
consultants, provided that the Damages arise out of:
(A) failure by the Company or its partners, employees or agents, to
comply with the terms of this Financing Agreement or the Note, and any
agreements, covenants, obligations, or prohibitions set forth therein;
(B) any action, suit, claim or demand contesting or affecting the
title of the Facility;
(C) any breach by the Company of any representation or warranty set
forth in this Financing Agreement or the Note, or any certificate delivered by
the Company pursuant thereto, and any claim that any representation or warranty
of the Company contains or contained any untrue or misleading statement of fact
or omits or omitted to state any material facts necessary to make the statements
made therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were
made;
(D) any action, suit, claim, proceeding or investigation of a judicial,
legislative, administrative or regulatory nature arising from or in connection
with the ownership, operation, occupation or use of the Facility; or
(E) any suit, action, administrative proceeding, enforcement action, or
governmental or private action of any kind whatsoever commenced against the
Company, the Facility or the Indemnitees that might adversely affect the
validity, enforceability or tax-exempt status of the Bonds, this Financing
Agreement or the Note, or the performance by the Company or any Indemnitee of
any of their respective obligations thereunder;
provided that such indemnity shall be effective only to the extent of any loss
that may be sustained by the Indemnitees in excess of the proceeds net of any
expenses of collection, received by them or from any insurance carried with
respect to such loss and provided further that the benefits of this section
shall not inure to any person other than the Indemnitees.
(b) If any action, suit or proceeding is brought against the
Indemnitees for any loss or damage for which the Company is required to provide
indemnification under this section, the Company, upon request, shall at its
expense resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding, or cause the same to
be resisted and defended by counsel designated by the Company and approved by
the Indemnitees, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided
that such approval shall not be required in the case of defense by counsel
designated by any insurance company undertaking such defense pursuant to any
applicable policy of insurance. If an Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be defenses available to it that are in conflict with those
available to the Company or to other Indemnitees (in which case the Company
shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such
Indemnitee), such Indemnitee may engage separate counsel and the reasonable
legal and other expenses incurred by such Indemnitee shall be borne by the
Company. The obligations of the Company under this section shall survive any
termination of this Agreement, including prepayment of the Note.
(c) Nothing contained herein shall require the Company to indemnify the
Issuer for any claim or liability resulting from its willful, wrongful acts or
the Trustee for any claim or liability resulting from its negligence (under the
standard of care set forth in Article IX of the Indenture) or its willful,
wrongful acts.
(d) All references in this section to the Issuer and the Trustee,
including references to Indemnitees, shall include their members, commissioners,
directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents.
Section 5.7. Maintenance and Insurance of Facility. (a) The Company
shall, at its own expense, keep the Facility in as reasonably safe condition as
its operations shall permit and shall keep the Facility in good repair and
operating condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, making from time to time
all necessary repairs, renewals and replacements. The Company shall comply, in
all material respects, with all laws applicable to the Facility.
(b) The Company shall, at its own expense, continuously maintain
insurance in connection with the Facility and the Company's operations against
such risks as are customarily insured against by organizations of the same
general type, including without limitation insurance for property damage,
liability for bodily injury, liability for property damage and workers'
compensation.
Section 5.8. Corporate Existence. The Company shall maintain its
existence as a West Virginia corporation and shall not, without the prior
consent of the Trustee, dissolve or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its assets, consolidate with or merge into another domestic partnership
or corporation (i.e. a partnership or corporation created under the laws of the
United States of America, one of the states thereof or the District of Columbia)
or permit one or more other domestic partnerships or corporations to consolidate
with or merge into it; provided, however, that with the prior written consent of
the Bank, the Company may consolidate with or merge into another domestic
partnership or corporation, or permit one or more domestic partnerships or
corporations to consolidate with or merge into it, or sell or otherwise transfer
to another domestic partnership or corporation all or substantially all of its
assets and thereafter dissolve, or sell or assign all or substantially all of
its assets to a governmental unit, if after giving effect to such consolidation,
merger, transfer, sale or assignment the surviving, resulting or transferee
partnership, corporation or governmental unit:
(1) will not be in default under any covenant under this Financing
Agreement;
(2) if it is not the Company, has the power to assume and
assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company herein and in the
Note; and
(3) if it is not a West Virginia partnership or corporation or a
political subdivision of the State of West Virginia, either qualifies to do
business in West Virginia or files with the Trustee a consent to service of
process reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.
Section 5.9. Obligations Under the Indenture. The Company shall
undertake all actions and carry out all responsibilities prescribed for it
under the Indenture.

hereunder, other than its obligations contained in Sections 4.1, 4.6, 4.7, 5.1,

Section 6.2. Remedies on Default. Whenever any Event of Default
hereunder shall have occurred and is continuing, the Trustee as the
assignee of the Issuer:
(a) May, and at the written direction of the holders of not less than
25% in aggregate principal amount of Bonds then outstanding, shall declare all
amounts payable as principal and interest on the Note to be immediately due and

Company under the Note or this Financing Agreement.
Section 6.3. Application of Amounts Realized in Enforcement of
Remedies. Any amounts collected pursuant to action taken under Section 6.2

such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be
deemed expedient.
Section 6.5. Attorney Fees and Other Expenses. Upon an Event of
Default, the Company on demand shall pay to the Issuer and the Trustee the

Section 6.6. No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. If either
party or its assignee waives a default by the other party under any covenant,
condition or agreement herein, such waiver shall be limited to the particular
