5
prohibited transaction under ERISA.

6
and provided further, however, that notwithstanding the 30-day cure period or extended cure period described above in this subparagraph (c), if a different notice or cure period is specified under any Loan Document or under any provision of the Loan Documents as to any such failure or breach, the specific Loan Document or provision shall control, and Borrower shall have no more time to cure the failure or breach than is allowed under the specific Loan Document or provision as to such failure or breach.”

7
33. Section 8.10 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
