    C.  Pursuant
to the Construction Agency Agreement, Agent Lessor will appoint Lessee to act as Construction Agent to design, procure and construct the Financed

    D.  Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Documents, the Tranche B Participants and the Tranche C Equity
Participants are willing to provide to Agent Lessor through fundings to the Administrative Agent a portion of the funding of the Construction Costs.

    E.  Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Documents, Agent Lessor wishes to obtain, and the Tranche A1 Participant
may provide through fundings to the Administrative Agent, financing of the remaining portion of the funding of the Construction Costs out of the proceeds from the issuance of Commercial Paper.

    F.  If,
for any reason, the Tranche A1 Participant elects not to issue Commercial Paper and lend such proceeds, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Participation Agreement and the other Operative Documents, the Committed Tranche A Participants are willing to provide through fundings to the Administrative Agent financing for the remaining portion
of the funding of the Construction Costs.

    G.  To
secure the repayment of Lessee's obligations under the Lease and the other Operative Documents, Agent Lessor, on behalf of the Participants, and the Participants
will have the benefit of a Lien on the Premises.

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained in this Participation Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are

    (c) Fundings by Tranche C Equity, Tranche B and Tranche A Participants. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Participation Agreement (including the limitations set forth in Section 3.1(d)) and in reliance on the representations and
warranties of each of the parties hereto contained herein or made pursuant hereto, upon receipt of an Advance Request, on each Advance Date each Tranche C Equity Participant shall Fund to the

Participant's Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the requested Advance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Participation Agreement (including the limitations set forth
in Section 3.1(d)) and in reliance on the representations and warranties of each of the parties hereto contained herein or made
pursuant hereto, upon receipt of an Advance Request, on each Advance Date each Tranche B Participant shall Fund to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer in accordance with the instructions set
forth in the Advance Request an amount in immediately available funds on such Advance Date equal to such Tranche B Participant's Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the requested Advance.

share of such Advance available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Participant is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent. If such
Participant's share of such Advance is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Participant on or prior to such Advance Date, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to make such
Advance to Lessee.

    If,
pursuant to the Transfer Agreement any Committed Tranche A Participant has funded its Commitment in a Non-Renewal Collateral Account pursuant to Section 4.12(e)
of the Transfer Agreement or into a Downgrade Collateral Account pursuant to Section 4.12(c) of the Transfer Agreement, then the portion of Advances to be funded hereunder applicable to such
Committed Tranche A Participant shall be funded by such Committed Tranche A Participant out of the Non-Renewal Collateral Account or the Downgrade Collateral Account, as applicable, in
accordance with the terms of the Transfer Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the Tranche A1 Participant shall not be obligated to make a Funding on any Advance Date notwithstanding the use of the
terms "Commitment", "Available Commitment" or "Commitment Percentage" in relation to the Tranche A1 Participant.


    (d) Advances; Limitations and Limits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Funding by each Participant on such
Advance Date shall not exceed such Participant's Available Commitment, (ii) the Advance made by the Administrative Agent to Lessee on such Advance Date, together with all prior outstanding
Advances, shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment Amount and (iii) the aggregate amount of Advances used to pay Eligible Transaction Expenses and accrued Fees or to reimburse Lessee for
Eligible Transaction Expenses as set forth on the Advance Requests shall not exceed at any time 2% of the Aggregate Commitment Amount. Each Advance shall be used solely (i) to reimburse
Construction Agent for any Construction Costs paid by Construction Agent prior to the date of the Advance Request for such Advance for which Construction Agent has not previously been reimbursed
hereunder or to pay Construction Costs which are due and payable on or prior to the proposed Advance Date and (ii) to fund Capitalized Tranche A and Tranche B Basic Rent, Capitalized
Tranche C Equity Basic Rent and to pay accrued Fees and Transaction Expenses provided for, and in the manner set forth, in Section 4.1(b)
 and Section 15.15.

    The

multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, provided, that so long as an Advance is for the full amount of the aggregate Available
Commitment and exceeds the minimum threshold of $1,000,000, such Advance need not be in an
integral multiple of $100,000. All Fundings made by Participants for the Funding of any Advance shall be made in immediately available federal funds

by wire transfer to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in Schedule II
 hereto. In the case of Fundings by the Committed Participants, such Funds shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 noon (New York, New York
time) on the Advance Date specified in the relevant Advance Request and, in the case of a Funding by the Tranche A1 Participant, such Funds shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent promptly

been satisfied by 10:00 a.m. New York, New York time on the Advance Date specified in such Advance Request, no Participant shall be obligated to maintain the availability of its funds for such
Advance unless such Participant has received a satisfactory indemnity for the overnight investment of such funds. Upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds from the Participants, subject
to the conditions herein, the Administrative Agent shall wire such funds to Lessee for deposit on the applicable Advance Date to such account as Lessee shall have indicated in the Advance Request. The
Funding by each Participant to the Administrative Agent of its respective portion of an Advance shall constitute authorization and direction by such party to the Administrative Agent to make an
Advance pursuant to this Article III.

    (e) Termination of Commitments. Notwithstanding anything in this Participation Agreement to be the contrary, the
Commitments shall terminate and no Participant shall be obligated to make any Advance, and no Advance Date may occur, in each case of the foregoing, after the occurrence of 2:00 p.m. New York,

limitation at Section 16.6 of the Lease and Section 5.4 of the Construction Agency Agreement (to the extent applicable) payable by Lessee pursuant to any of Articles XV, XVI or XVIII of
the Lease or by Construction Agent pursuant to Section 3.4(b) of the Construction Agency Agreement, shall be the direct recourse obligations of Lessee and shall not be payable with Advances. In
the event that Lessee pays the Purchase Amount to the Administrative Agent in connection with Lessee's purchase of the Premises in accordance with Section 15.1, 16.2(e),

 however, that all Fundings for Capitalized Tranche A and Tranche B Basic Rent,

Tranche A and Tranche B Basic Rent and Capitalized Tranche C Equity Basic Rent accrued on the Certificate Amounts, with an Interest Period ending on such Payment Date. The Advance Date with respect to
each such Advance for such accrued Capitalized Tranche A and

Tranche B Basic Rent and Capitalized Tranche C Equity Basic Rent shall be the relevant Payment Date (subject to the terms and conditions for an Advance set forth in this Participation Agreement) and
the proceeds of such Advance shall be applied to pay such accrued Capitalized Tranche A and Tranche B Basic Rent and Capitalized Tranche C Equity Basic Rent. On each such Advance Date as to which such
an Advance is being made, the Certificate Amounts shall be increased by an amount equal to the Capitalized Tranche C Equity Basic Rent and Capitalized Tranche A and Tranche B Basic Rent, as
applicable, Funded on such date, and the Construction Costs shall be increased by an amount equal to the Capitalized Tranche A and Tranche B Basic Rent and the Capitalized Tranche C Equity Basic Rent
so funded; provided, however, that if an Advance hereunder would exceed the limitations and limits set forth in the first paragraph
of Section 3.1(d), no Participant shall have any obligation to make any such Advance.


    (ii) If
any Participant shall request the Administrative Agent to capitalize the amount of (A) any Claims relating to a Nonrelated Construction Event, or
(B) any loss or liability pursuant to Section 14.1(e) or Article XV of the Lease, any such amount shall be capitalized by automatically treating such amount as an Advance (funded
by such Participant) and shall increase the Participant Balances by the aggregate amount so capitalized; provided, however, that Lessee shall have
no obligation to pay any such capitalized amounts if
Lessee exercises the Sale Option and pays the Residual Value Guarantee Amount, other than from the Proceeds after repayment of the Residual Value Guarantee Amount as described
at Section 5.3(d). If any such capitalized amounts are included in the Certificate Amount or Participant Balance (the
"3.5(ii) portion" of the Certificate Amount or Participant Balance), all Lessee payments and other amounts applied to the Certificate Amount or Participant Balance shall be applied as provided
in Section 5.3. The Administrative Agent shall notify Lessee and each Participant of each amount capitalized and treated as an
Advance (and a related increase in Participant Balances therein) under this Section 3.5(ii) within fifteen
(15) days after each such Advance.



    SECTION
3.6.  Postponement of Advance Date.  In the event that any Committed Participant fails to make
available to the Administrative Agent on the applicable Advance Date (such originally scheduled Advance Date being referred to as the "Scheduled Advance
Date" for purposes of this Section 3.6) an amount equal to such Committed Participant's Commitment
Percentage of the amount of the Advance required by the terms hereof to be funded on such Advance Date (a "Defaulting Committed Participant"), or the
Administrative Agent determines that a Committed Participant will become a Defaulting Committed Participant on the Scheduled Advance Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lessee thereof
and Lessee may postpone such Advance Date by delivering notice to the Administrative Agent of such postponement and of the date to which such Advance Date has been postponed (such notice to be
received by no later than 9:00 a.m. New York, New York time, on the Scheduled Advance Date, and the term "Advance Date" as used herein shall mean such postponed Advance Date). If a Scheduled
Advance Date is so postponed or if an Advance Date fails to occur: (i) Lessee shall reimburse each Participant (other than the Defaulting Committed Participant) for loss of the use of its funds
occasioned by such postponement or failure to occur by paying to such Participant on demand interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%, for the period
from and including such Scheduled Advance Date, if such Participant has made its funds available, to but excluding the earlier of the date upon which such funds are returned (unless such funds are
returned after 12:00 noon New York, New York time in which case such date of return shall be included) or the Advance Date, together with any Break Costs; except that Lessee shall in any event pay to
each Participant at least one day's interest on the amount of such funds, unless such Participant receives before 12:00 noon New York, New York time on the Business Day preceding the
Scheduled Advance Date, a notice of postponement of the Scheduled Advance Date pursuant to this Section 3.6 and
(ii) the Administrative Agent shall return not later than 2:00 p.m. on the first Business Day following the Scheduled Advance Date (unless such return date is the postponed Advance
Date), any funds received from such Participant as its portion of the Advance payable on such

Scheduled Advance Date. Lessee shall have the right to pursue a claim with respect to such costs against any Defaulted Committed Participant.


    SECTION
3.7.  Certificates.  Each Participant shall have an undivided interest in Agent Lessor's interest
in the Lease and Lessee's obligations thereunder and under the other Operative Documents to pay Basic Rent, the Lease Balance and any Supplemental Rent to which such Participant is entitled under the
Operative Documents and in the amounts and priorities set forth at Section 5.3. The interests of each Participant shall be
evidenced by a certificate or certificates in the form of Exhibit B, with appropriate insertions, issued by Lessee indicating
such Participant's interest in the Basic Rent and all other amounts distributable to such Participant pursuant to Section 5.3
 (each such certificate, and any and all certificates issued in replacement or exchange therefor being a
"Certificate"). Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes each Participant to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such
Participant's Certificates (or on any continuations of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of,
the outstanding amount of, and the interest rate applicable to the interests evidenced thereby. Such notations shall be conclusive and binding on Lessee absent manifest error; provided, however the failure of any Participant to make any such notations
shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of Lessee. In addition to the agency established pursuant to Xxxxxx XXX, the
Administrative Agent is appointed the agent of each Participant for the limited purpose of transfer and exchange of the Certificates, and, as such, each Participant agrees that the Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to the rights and bound by the provisions of Article XVI with respect to such agency,
including the limitations on liability set forth therein. The Administrative Agent shall, as agent for Participants, maintain at its office a register for the purpose of registering the Certificate or
Certificates originally issued hereunder and all transfers and exchanges thereof. A Participant intending to transfer any or all of its Certificates in accordance with Section 11.1, or to
exchange any or all of its Certificates for Certificates evidencing a different interest, shall surrender such Certificate or
Certificates to the Administrative Agent at its office set forth on Schedule II, together with a written request from such
Participant (a copy of which such Participant shall also send to Lessee) for the issuance of a new Certificate or Certificates, specifying the interests to be evidenced thereby and, in the case of a
surrender for registration of transfer, the name and address of the new Participant. Promptly upon receipt of such documents by the Administrative Agent, Lessee shall execute and the Administrative
Agent shall authenticate and deliver at no charge to Participant, a new Certificate or Certificates in the same form, evidencing the same aggregate interest and dated the same date or dates as the
Certificate or Certificates surrendered. The Administrative Agent, at no charge to Participant, shall make a notation on each new Certificate of the amount of all payments previously made on the old
Certificate or Certificates with respect to which such new Certificate is issued and the date to which payments with respect to the old Certificate or Certificates have been paid. Such notations, and
the grid attached to each Certificate, shall be prepared by the Administrative Agent, and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The Participant requesting such transfer or exchange
shall be responsible for all stamp taxes related thereto. Lessee, the Administrative Agent and the Participants may deem the owner of each Certificate reflected in the register as the owner thereof
for all purposes. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for determining if any transferee satisfies the requirements of Section 11.1. In maintaining the register and registering
therein the transfers and exchanges of Certificates as required under
this Section 3.7, the Administrative Agent shall act as the agent of Lessee, as the issuer of the Certificates, at Lessee's sole
cost and expense, for purposes of complying with the requirements of Treas. Reg. §5f.103-1(c)(1), in order to cause the certificates to qualify for the "portfolio interest
exemption" under Section 871(h) and related Sections of the Code
and applicable regulations thereunder. As such agent, Lessee agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to the rights and bound by the provisions of Article XVI with respect to
such agency, including the limitations on liability set forth therein.


    SECTION
3.8.  Lost, Stolen or Damaged Certificates.  If any Participant's Certificate shall become
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, Lessee shall, upon the written request of the appropriate

Participant, execute and deliver in replacement thereof and at no charge to Participant, a new Certificate in the same form, evidencing the same interest and dated the same date as the Certificate so
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen. If the Certificate being replaced has become mutilated, such Certificate shall be surrendered to the Administrative Agent and a photocopy thereof shall be
furnished to Lessee by the Administrative Agent. If the Certificate being replaced has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the Participant requesting a replacement Certificate shall furnish to Lessee and
the Administrative Agent such reasonable security or indemnity as may be required by each of them to save them harmless if the Participant has not furnished them satisfactory evidence of the
destruction, loss or theft of the Certificate; provided, that if the Certificate being replaced is registered in the name of any
institutional investor then the affidavit of such authorized officer of Participant in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the fact of destruction, loss or theft
and of ownership of the Certificate at the time thereof shall be satisfactory evidence and no security or indemnity shall be required other than the written agreement of such person, in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to indemnify and hold harmless Lessee and the Administrative Agent from all risks resulting from the authentication and delivery of a substitute
Certificate. The Participant requesting replacement hereunder shall be responsible for all stamp taxes relating to such replacement.

     (i) Lessee
shall pay to the Tranche B Participants from time to time during the Commitment Period a commitment fee (the "Tranche B Commitment
Fee") at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on an amount equal to the daily unused portion of such Participant's Commitment; such Tranche B Commitment

accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.

    (ii) Lessee
shall pay to the Tranche C Equity Participants from time to time during the Commitment Period a commitment fee (the "Tranche C
Equity Commitment Fee" and together with the Tranche A Commitment Fee and the Tranche B Commitment Fee, collectively, the "Commitment

    The
Administrative Agent shall provide to Lessee from time to time not less than six (6) Business Days prior to the due date(s) for the Commitment Fees, a written statement of
the amount of the Commitment Fees then due, the due date therefor and the calculation thereof; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent's
failure to give such notice shall not relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay timely all Commitment Fees. The
Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date and shall be computed on the basis of the actual

number of days from and including each Payment Date to but excluding the next succeeding Payment Date (or for any partial period, for the actual number of days in such partial period, including the
first day of such partial period but excluding the last day of such partial period), for which such Commitment Fees are payable over a year of 360 days; provided,

    SECTION
4.2.  Obligations Several.  The obligations of the Participants hereunder or elsewhere in the
Operative Documents shall be several and not joint; and no Participant shall be liable or responsible for the acts or defaults of any other party hereunder or under any other Operative Document.

    SECTION
4.3.  Highest Lawful Rate.  It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to
applicable usury laws and, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of (x) Lessee to Agent Lessor and the Participants under this Participation Agreement and the Lease,
and (y) Lessee or any other party under any other Operative Document shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest or of other amounts constituting interest under Applicable Laws
shall not be required to the extent that receipt thereof would be in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, or otherwise contrary to provisions of law applicable to the recipient limiting rates of
interest which may be charged or collected by the recipient. Accordingly, if the transactions or the amount paid or otherwise agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance or detention of money under
this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Certificates or any other Operative Document would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate or otherwise be usurious under Applicable Laws (including without
limitation the federal and state laws of the United States of America, or of any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable) with respect to the recipient of any such amount, then, in
that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Certificates or any other Operative Document, it is agreed as follows as to the recipient of any
such amount:



    (a) the
provisions of this Section 4.3 shall govern and control over any other
provision in this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Certificates and any other Operative Document, and each provision set forth therein is hereby so limited;

    (b) the
aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under Applicable Laws that is contracted for, charged or received under this Participation Agreement,
the Lease, the Certificates or any other Operative Document shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by Applicable Laws (such maximum lawful interest rate, if any,
with respect to such recipient herein called the "Highest Lawful Rate"), and all amounts owed under this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the
Certificates and any other Operative Document shall be held subject to reduction and: (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable to the recipient hereunder and under the Lease,
the Certificates and any other Operative Document, shall be automatically reduced to the amount allowed under Applicable Laws, and (ii) any unearned interest paid in excess of the Highest
Lawful Rate shall be credited to the payor by the recipient (or, if such consideration shall have been paid in full, refunded to the payor);


    (c) all
sums paid, or agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance and detention of the money under this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Certificates or any other
Operative Document shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full, so that the
actual rate of interest is uniform throughout the full term thereof; and



    (d) if
at any time the interest, together with any other fees, late charges and other sums payable pursuant to or in connection with this Participation Agreement, the
Lease, the Certificates and any other Operative Document executed in connection herewith or therewith and deemed interest under Applicable Laws, exceeds that amount which would have accrued at the
Highest Lawful Rate, the amount of interest and any such fees, charges and sums to accrue to the recipient of such interest, fees, charges and sums pursuant to the Operative Documents shall be
limited, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operative Documents, to that amount which would have accrued at the Highest Lawful Rate for the recipient, but any subsequent reductions, as
applicable, shall not reduce the interest to accrue pursuant to the Operative Documents below the recipient's Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest payable to the recipient (including
all consideration which constitutes interest) equals the amount of interest which would have been payable to the recipient (including all consideration which constitutes
interest), plus the amount of fees which would have been received but for the effect of this Section 4.3.



    SECTION
4.4.  Extension of Expiration Date.  Lessee may request in writing (the
"Extension Option Request") to Agent Lessor and each of the Participants that each of the Participants agrees that Lessee be granted the right (the
"Extension Option") pursuant to the Lease to extend the Term (the "Lease Extension") for two
(2) additional one-year periods commencing on the last day of the then current Term, as applicable (each, a "Lease Renewal Term"),
and that the maturity date for the Certificates be correspondingly extended to the extended Expiration Date. Such Extension Option Request must be delivered in writing to Agent Lessor and each
Participant not later than 180 days nor more than 270 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term and the end of the initial Lease Renewal Term, as applicable. Each Participant will
notify Agent Lessor in writing of whether or not it has consented to such Extension Option Request not later than 45 days after receipt of the Extension Option Request (the
"Extension Option Response Date"). Any Participant who does not so notify Agent Lessor by the Extension Option Response Date will be deemed to be, and
any Participant that has notified Agent Lessor that it has not consented to an Extension Option Request will be, a "Non-Consenting Participant". Each Participant's determination with
respect to an Extension Option Request shall be a new credit determination and within such Participant's sole and absolute discretion and may be conditioned upon such terms and conditions as deemed
appropriate by the consenting Participants, including receipt of such financial information, documentation or other information or conditions as may be requested by such Participant and the receipt of
a satisfactory appraisal of the Premises.

    The
Extension Option shall become effective as of the first date (the "Extension Effective Date") on or after the Extension Option
Response Date on which all of the Participants (other than Non-Consenting Participants who have been replaced by Replacement Participants in accordance with Section 10.2(b)) and Replacement
Participants shall have consented to such Lease Extension; provided
 that on both the date of the Extension Option Request and the Extension Effective Date: (w) each of the representations and warranties made by Agent
Lessor and Lessee in or pursuant to the Operative Documents shall be
true and correct in all material respects as if made on and as of each such date (except to the extent any such representation or warranty specifically relates to an earlier date), (x) Lessee
shall not have elected the Purchase Option or Sale Option, (y) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (z) on each of such dates, Agent Lessor shall
have received a certificate of Lessee as to the matters set forth in clauses (x) and (y) above; and provided
further that in no event shall the
Extension Effective Date occur unless each of the Participants (other than Non-Consenting Participants who have been replaced in accordance with Section 10.2) and the Replacement Participants
shall have consented to the Extension Option Request on or before the expiration of the Base Term.

    At
any time after the Extension Option Response Date, as applicable, Lessee shall be permitted to replace any Non-Consenting Participant with a Replacement Participant
pursuant to the terms and

conditions set forth in Section 10.2(b). Following the Extension Effective Date, Lessee's election of each Lease Renewal Term
shall be undertaken pursuant to, and shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, Section 19.1(a) of the Lease.


  ARTICLE V CERTAIN INTENTIONS OF THE PARTIES  

    SECTION
5.1.  Nature of Transaction.  It is the intention of the parties that:



    (a) the
Overall Transaction constitutes an operating lease from Agent Lessor to Lessee for purposes of Lessee's financial reporting;


    (b) for
all other purposes, including federal and all state and local income and transfer taxes, bankruptcy, insolvency and receiverships (including the substantive law
upon which bankruptcy, insolvency and receivership proceedings are based), and real estate law, commercial law and Uniform Commercial Code purposes:



     (i) the
Overall Transaction constitutes a financing by the Participants to Lessee and preserves beneficial ownership of the Premises in Lessee, and the obligations of
Lessee to pay Basic Rent shall be treated as payments of interest to the Participants, and the payment by Lessee of any amounts in respect of the Lease Balance shall be treated as payments of
principal to the Participants; and

    (ii) the
Lease grants a first-priority mortgage lien and security interest in the Premises in favor of Agent Lessor, for the benefit of the Participants.



Nevertheless,
Lessee acknowledges and agrees that neither Agent Lessor nor any Participant has made any representations or warranties concerning the tax, accounting or legal characteristics of the
Operative Documents or any aspect of the Overall Transaction and that Lessee has obtained and relied upon such tax, accounting and legal advice concerning the Operative Documents and the Overall
Transaction as it deems appropriate.

    (c) Specifically,
without limiting the generality of clause (b), the parties hereto intend and
agree that in the event of any insolvency or receivership proceedings or a petition under the United States bankruptcy laws or any other applicable insolvency laws or statute of the United States of
America or any State or Commonwealth thereof affecting Lessee, Agent Lessor or any of the Participants or any collection actions, the transactions evidenced by the Operative Documents are loans made
to Lessee by the Participants in each case as unrelated third party lenders, and Agent Lessor holds a leasehold estate in the Land and title to the Improvements for the benefit of the Participants to
secure Lessee's
obligations to repay such loans to the Participants and all other amounts due under any of the Operative Documents.



    SECTION
5.2.  Amounts Due Under Lease.  Anything else herein or elsewhere to the contrary
notwithstanding, it is the intention of Lessee, Agent Lessor and the Participants that: (i) the amount and timing of installments of the Basic Rent due and payable from time to time from Lessee
under the Lease shall be equal to the aggregate payments due and payable as Tranche A Basic Rent and Tranche B Basic Rent and Tranche C Equity Basic Rent on each Payment Date; (ii) if Lessee
elects the Early Termination Option, the Purchase Option or becomes obligated or otherwise elects to purchase the Premises under the Lease, the Lease Balance and all other obligations of Lessee owing
to the Participants shall be paid in full by Lessee; (iii) if Lessee properly elects the Sale Option with respect to the Premises and subject to Article XX of the Lease, Lessee shall
only be required to pay to Agent Lessor the Construction Recourse Amount, the proceeds of the sale of the Premises and any amounts due pursuant to Article XX of the Lease (which aggregate
amounts may be less than the Lease Balance), together with all other due and payable Supplemental Rent; and (iv) upon an Event of Default resulting in an acceleration of Lessee's obligation to
purchase the Premises under the Lease,

the amounts then due and payable by Lessee under the Lease shall include all amounts necessary to pay in full the Lease Balance, plus
 all other amounts then due from Lessee to Agent Lessor and the Participants under the Operative Documents.

of its Affiliates, or the Overall Transaction or any portion thereof, and irrespective of whether any of such activities were or will be undertaken in accordance with Applicable Laws.

 



Notwithstanding
anything in this Participation Agreement to the contrary, Lessee shall not be liable and shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee against Liabilities arising out of:



     (i) Environmental
Violations on the Premises after title and exclusive possession of the Premises shall have been conveyed to Agent Lessor to the extent arising solely
from Hazardous Substances placed on the Premises after the transfer of such title and exclusive possession to Agent Lessor; and or

    (ii) the
willful misconduct by an Indemnitee, its officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors or representatives.



    Promptly
upon obtaining knowledge thereof, Indemnitees shall give written notice to Lessee of any claim against Indemnitees, which might give rise to a claim by Indemnitees against
Lessee under the foregoing indemnity, stating the nature and basis of the claim, the amount thereof and reasonable best estimate of the amount of Lessee's liability to Indemnitees in connection
therewith, provided there shall be no liability to any Indemnitee and no diminution in the obligations of Lessee for failure to give such notice. If any action shall be brought against Indemnitees,
Lessee shall be entitled to participate therein, and to assume the defense thereof at the expense of Lessee with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitees and to settle and compromise any such
claim or action with the consent of such Indemnitees in their sole discretion; provided, however, that Indemnitees may elect to be represented by
separate counsel, at Lessee's expense, if such Indemnitee believes in good faith that a conflict of
interest may exist.

    SECTION
12.3.  Premises Indemnity.  If (a) Lessee elects the Sale Option; and (b) after
paying to Lessor, for the benefit of the Participants, any amounts due under Articles XX and XXI of the Lease, the Lease Balance shall not have been reduced to zero, then Lessee shall promptly pay
over to Agent Lessor on the Expiration Date the shortfall, unless Lessee delivers a report from an appraiser selected by the Required Participants in form and substance satisfactory to the Required
Participants and using approved methods satisfactory to the Required Participants which establishes that the reasons for the actual Fair Market Value of the Premises as of the Expiration Date being
less than the Fair Market Value anticipated for such date in the Appraisal was not due to any of the following events, circumstances or conditions, whether or not permitted under the Lease:
(i) the failure to maintain the Premises as required by the Lease and the other Operative Documents, and in at least as good a condition as it was in on the Completion Date, ordinary wear and
tear excepted; (ii) the carrying out of or the failure to undertake any modifications, improvements or Modifications (including the Financed Improvements) whether or not permitted pursuant to
the Operative Documents; (iii) any change or modification to the Approved Plans and Specifications following the earlier of (x) the Document Closing Date and (y) the delivery of
the Approved Plans and Specifications pursuant to Section 6.1(p), whether or not permitted pursuant to the Operative Documents,
(iv) the existence of any environmental condition at or affecting the Premises, whether or not such condition existed on the initial Advance Date; (v) any defect, exception, easement,
restriction or other encumbrance on or title to the Premises, whether or not created or existing on the initial Advance Date; (vi) the dependence of the Premises on any improvement or facility
not fully located on the Premises (except for government-provided utilities existing and benefitting the Premises as of the date hereof, the benefits of which are lost for reasons other than the fault
of Lessee and which could not have been retained through the exercise by Lessee of commercially reasonable efforts to keep such utilities in place); (vii) any restoration or rebuilding carried
out by Lessee or any sublessee; (viii) any condemnation of any portion of the Premises pursuant to Article XV of the Lease; (ix) any use of the Premises or any part thereof by
Lessee or any sublessee other than as an office building; or (x) any other cause or condition within the power of Lessee to control or affect, other than ordinary wear and tear.

    SECTION
12.4.  Proceedings in Respect of Claims.  With respect to any amount that Lessee is requested by
an Indemnitee to pay by reason of Section 12.1(a) or 12.2, such Indemnitee shall, if so

requested by Lessee and prior to any payment, submit such additional information to Lessee as Lessee may reasonably request and which is in the possession of such Indemnitee to substantiate properly
the requested payment.

    In
case any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall notify Lessee of the commencement thereof, and Lessee shall be entitled, at its
expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that Lessee desires to, assume and control the defense thereof through its own counsel, which shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Required
Participants, on behalf of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that
Lessee shall have acknowledged in writing its obligation to fully indemnify such Indemnitee in respect of such action, suit or proceeding, and, Lessee shall keep such Indemnitee fully apprised of the
status of such action, suit or proceeding and shall provide such Indemnitee with all information with respect to such action, suit or proceeding as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request. Lessee
must indicate its election to assume such defense by written notice to the Indemnitee within 90 days following receipt of Indemnitee's notice of the Claim, or in the case of a third party claim
which requires a shorter time for response then within such shorter period as specified in the Indemnitee's notice of Claim, provided
 that such Indemnitee has given Lessee notice thereof. Lessee shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding if
and to the extent that, (A) in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnitee, (x) such action, suit or proceeding involves any risk of imposition of criminal liability or any material risk
of imposition of material civil liability on such Indemnitee or will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on the
Premises or any part thereof unless, in the case of civil liability, Lessee shall have posted a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitees in respect to such risk or
(y) the control of such action, suit or proceeding would involve an actual or potential conflict of interest, (B) such proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by Lessee which
Lessee and the Indemnitee have been unable to sever from the indemnified Claim(s), or (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable
manner at its own expense and with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by Lessee in accordance with the foregoing. Lessee shall not enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect
to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the case of a money
settlement not involving an admission of liability of such Indemnitee.

    Each
Indemnitee shall supply Lessee with such information and documents reasonably requested by Lessee as are necessary or advisable for Lessee to participate in any action, suit or
proceeding to the extent permitted by Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable, and Lessee shall reimburse the Indemnitee for the reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses of supplying such information
and documents. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be
indemnified under Section 12.1 or 12.2, as
applicable, without the prior written consent of Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable, with respect to such Claim, does not
admit any criminal liability or civil liability on behalf of Lessee in connection with such Claim, and uses reasonable efforts to advise Lessee on the status of proceedings from time to time during
the pendency of such Claim.

    Upon
payment in full of any Claim by Lessee pursuant to Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable, to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, Lessee,
without any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may
have relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies
maintained by such Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee shall execute such instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and such other documents, instruments
and agreements as may be necessary to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate

with Lessee and give such further assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable Lessee vigorously to pursue such claims.

    Any
amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12.1 or 12.2 shall be paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon receipt of a written
demand therefor from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a written statement describing in
reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount so payable.

    SECTION
12.5.  General Tax Indemnity.  



    (a) Indemnification. (i) Lessee shall pay and assume liability for, and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect
and defend the Premises and all Indemnitees, and hold the Premises and all Indemnitees harmless against, all Impositions on an After Tax Basis.

    (b) Contests. If any claim shall be made against any Indemnitee or if any proceeding shall be commenced against any
Indemnitee (including a written notice of such proceeding) for any Imposition as to which Lessee may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 12.5, or if any Indemnitee shall
determine that any Imposition for which Lessee may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to
this Section 12.5 may be payable, such Indemnitee shall promptly (and in any event, within 30 days) notify
Lessee in writing (provided that failure to so notify Lessee within 30 days shall not alter such Indemnitee's rights under
this Section 12.5, except to the extent such failure precludes or materially adversely affects the ability to conduct a contest
of any indemnified Imposition) and shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without the written consent of Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
unreasonably delayed) for 30 days after the receipt of such notice by Lessee; provided, however, that in the case of any such claim or
proceeding, if such Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such
30-day period, such Indemnitee shall in such notice to Lessee, so inform Lessee, and such Indemnitee shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without
the consent of Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 10 days after the receipt of such notice by Lessee, unless the Indemnitee shall be required by
law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 10-day period.



    Lessee
shall be entitled for a period of 30 days from receipt of such notice from the Indemnitee (or such shorter period as the Indemnitee has notified Lessee is required by
law or regulation for the Indemnitee to commence such contest), to request in writing that such Indemnitee contest such Imposition, at Lessee's expense. If (x) such contest can be pursued in
the name of Lessee and independently from any other proceeding involving an Imposition for which Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Indemnitee, (y) such contest must be pursued in the name
of the Indemnitee, but can be pursued independently from any other proceeding involving an Imposition for which Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Indemnitee or (z) the Indemnitee so
requests, then Lessee shall be permitted to control the contest of such claim, provided that in the case of a contest
described in any of clause (x), (y)
 or (z) if the Indemnitee determines in good faith that such contest by Lessee
could have a material adverse impact on the business or operations of the Indemnitee and provides a written explanation to Lessee of such determination, the Indemnitee may elect to control or reassert
control of the contest, and provided, that by taking control of the contest, Lessee acknowledges that it is responsible for the
Imposition ultimately determined to be due by reason of such claim, and provided, further, that in determining the application of clauses (x)
 and (y) of the preceding sentence, each Indemnitee shall take
any and all reasonable steps to segregate claims for any Impositions for which Lessee indemnifies hereunder from Impositions for which Lessee is not obligated to indemnify hereunder, so that Lessee
can control the contest of the former. In all other claims requested to be contested by Lessee, the Indemnitee shall control the contest of such claim, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to
Lessee. In no event shall Lessee be permitted to contest (or the Indemnitee

required to contest) any claim (A) if such Indemnitee provides Lessee with a legal opinion of independent counsel that such action, suit or proceeding involves a material risk of imposition of
criminal liability or will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on the Premises or any part of any thereof unless
Lessee shall have posted and maintained a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitee in respect to such risk, (B) if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, unless Lessee shall have posted and maintained a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitee in respect of the Impositions subject to such claim and any and
all expenses for which Lessee is responsible hereunder reasonably foreseeable in connection with the contest of such claim, (C) unless Lessee shall have agreed to pay and shall pay to such
Indemnitee on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, losses and expenses that such Indemnitee may incur in connection with contesting such Imposition, including all
reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements, or (D) if such contest shall involve the payment of the Impositions prior to the contest, unless Lessee shall provide to
the Indemnitee an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the Imposition that the Indemnitee is required to pay (with no additional net after-tax costs (including Taxes) to
such Indemnitee). In addition, for Indemnitee-controlled contests and claims contested in the name of the Indemnitee in a public forum, no contest shall be required: (A) unless the amount of
the potential indemnity (taking into account all similar or logically related claims that have been or could be raised in any audit involving such Indemnitee for which Lessee may be liable to pay an
indemnity under this Section 12.5 exceeds $50,000 and (B) unless, if requested by the Indemnitee, Lessee
shall have provided to the Indemnitee an opinion of counsel selected by Lessee (which may be in-house counsel) that a reasonable basis exists to contest such claim. In no event shall an
Indemnitee be required to appeal an adverse judicial determination to the United States Supreme Court.

    The
party conducting the contest shall consult in good faith with the other party and its counsel with respect to the contest of such claim for Impositions (or claim for refund) but
the decisions regarding what actions to be taken shall be made by the controlling party in its sole judgement, provided, however, that if the
Indemnitee is the controlling party and Lessee recommends the
acceptance of a settlement offer made by the relevant Governmental Authority and such Indemnitee rejects such settlement offer then the amount for which Lessee will be required to indemnify such
Indemnitee with respect to the Taxes subject to such offer shall not exceed the amount which it would have owed if such settlement offer had been accepted. In addition, the controlling party shall
keep the noncontrolling party reasonably informed as to the progress of the contest, and shall provide the noncontrolling party with a copy of (or appropriate excerpts from) any reports or claims
issued by the relevant auditing agent or taxing authority to the controlling party thereof, in connection with such claim or the contest thereof.

    Each
Indemnitee shall supply Lessee with such information and documents reasonably requested by Lessee as are necessary or advisable for Lessee to participate in any action, suit or
proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 12.5(b), and Lessee shall promptly reimburse such Indemnitee for the
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of supplying such information and documents. No Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other compromise or fail to appeal an adverse
ruling with respect to any claim which is entitled to be indemnified under this Section 12.5 (and with respect to
which contest is required under this Section 12.5(b)) without the prior written consent of Lessee (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld), unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under this Section 12.5 with
respect to such claim.

    Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, an Indemnitee will not be required to contest (and Lessee shall not be permitted to contest) a claim with respect to any
Imposition if (i) such Indemnitee shall waive its right to indemnification under this Section 12.5 with
respect to such claim (and any claim with respect to such year or any other taxable year, the contest of which is materially adversely affected as a result of such waiver) or (ii) such
Imposition is the sole result of a claim of a

continuing and consistent nature, which claim has previously been resolved against the relevant Indemnitee (unless a change in law or facts has occurred since such prior adverse resolution and Lessee
provides an opinion of independent tax counsel to the effect that it is more likely than not that such change in law or facts will result in a favorable resolution of the claim at issue).



    (c) Payments. (i) To, or for the Account of, an Indemnitee. Any
Imposition indemnifiable under this Section 12.5 shall be paid directly when due to the applicable taxing
authority if direct payment is practicable and permitted. If direct payment to the applicable taxing authority is not permitted or is otherwise not made, any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant
to this Section 12.5 shall be paid within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written demand therefor from
such Indemnitee (accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the amount so payable), but not before two Business Days prior to the date that the relevant Taxes are due. Any
payments made to an Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 12.5 shall be made directly to the Indemnitee entitled
thereto in immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as specified by the Indemnitee in written directions to Lessee, or, if no such direction shall have been given, by check of
Lessee payable to the order of the Indemnitee by certified mail, postage prepaid at its address as set forth in this Participation Agreement. Upon the request of any Indemnitee with respect to an
Imposition that Lessee is required to pay, Lessee shall furnish to such Indemnitee the original or a certified copy of a receipt for Lessee's payment of such Imposition or such other evidence of
payment as is reasonably acceptable to such Indemnitee.



                (ii) To Lessee. (x) If any Indemnitee actually shall realize a Tax benefit (whether by way of
deduction, credit, allocation or apportionment or otherwise) with respect to a Tax not indemnifiable hereunder which would not have been realized but for any Tax with respect to which Lessee has
reimbursed or indemnified such Indemnitee pursuant to the Operative Documents, which benefit was not previously taken into account in determining the amount of Lessee's payment to such Indemnitee,
such Indemnitee shall pay to Lessee an amount equal to the amount of such Tax benefit, increased by any actual Tax savings realized by such Indemnitee and net of any additional Taxes actually borne by
such Indemnitee as a result of such payment (a "Grossed-Up Basis"); provided, however, that no
payment shall be made as long as an Event of Default is
continuing; provided further, however, that no Indemnitee shall be required to pay to Lessee any Tax benefit to the extent such payment
would be greater than the amount of such Taxes in respect of which the reimbursement or indemnification was paid by Lessee, reduced by all prior payments by such Indemnitee under
this Section 12.5(c)(ii)(x) in respect of such amount; any payment to Lessee which is so limited shall, to the
extent of such unpaid excess, be carried over and shall be available to offset any future obligations of Lessee under this Section 12.5. If such repaid Tax benefit is thereafter lost, the
additional Tax payable shall be treated as a Tax indemnifiable hereunder without regard
to the exclusions set forth in clauses (i) through (viii) of the definition of Impositions.

                (y) Upon
receipt by an Indemnitee of a refund or credit of all or part of any Taxes paid or indemnified against by Lessee, which refund or credit was
not previously taken into account in determining the amount of Lessee's payment to such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall pay to Lessee, on a Grossed-Up Basis, an amount equal to the
amount of such refund or credit, plus any interest received by or credited to such Indemnitee with respect to such refund; provided, however, that
no such payment shall
be made as long as an Event of Default is continuing; provided, further,
however, that no Indemnitee shall be required to pay to Lessee any refund or credit to the extent such refund or credit is greater than the amount of Taxes in respect of which payment or
indemnification was made by Lessee, reduced by all prior payments by such Indemnitee under this Section 12.5(c)(ii)(y)
 in respect of such amount. If such repaid refund or credit is thereafter lost, the additional Tax payable shall be treated as a Tax indemnifiable hereunder
without regard to the exclusions set forth in clauses (vi), (vii) and (viii) of the definition of Impositions.



                (z) The
Indemnitee will, at Lessee's expense, pursue refunds and tax benefits that would result in any such payments to Lessee, but only if the
Indemnitee has been notified in writing by Lessee that such refunds or tax benefits are available.



    (d) Reports. In the case of any report, return or statement required to be filed with respect to any Impositions that
are subject to indemnification under this Section 12.5 and of which Lessee or the Indemnitee has knowledge, the
party having such knowledge shall promptly notify the other of such requirement and, at Lessee's expense (i) if Lessee is permitted (unless otherwise requested by the Indemnitee) by Applicable
Laws, timely file such report, return or statement in its own name or (ii) if such report, return or statement is required to be in the name of or filed by such Indemnitee or the Indemnitee
otherwise requests that such report, return or statement be filed in the name of or by such Indemnitee, Lessee shall prepare such report, return or statement for filing by such Indemnitee in such
manner as shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee and send the same to the Indemnitee for filing no later than 15 days prior to the due date therefor. In any case in which the
Indemnitee will file any such report, return or statement, Lessee shall, upon written request of such Indemnitee, provide such Indemnitee with such information as is reasonably necessary to allow the
Indemnitee to file such report, return or statement.

    (e) Withholding Taxes.



     (i) Agent
Lessor or its agent shall withhold any Taxes required by Applicable Laws to be withheld on any payment to any Participant, except to the extent that the
Participant has furnished such information to Agent Lessor or its agent as shall be sufficient under Applicable Laws to entitle such Person to an exemption from withholding Taxes. Except to the extent
set forth in Section 14.6, the amount payable to Agent Lessor, any Participant or any Sub-Participant shall be
reduced by the amount of any withholding Taxes required to be withheld by Agent Lessor or its agent pursuant to the preceding sentence, and except as provided in Section 14.3, Lessee and Agent
Lessor shall have no liability or obligation to the Participants with respect to any such withholding Taxes. In accepting
and carrying out its duties with respect to withholding Taxes pursuant to this Section 12.5(e), Agent Lessor shall act as the
duly authorized agent of Lessee to act on behalf of Lessee under the withholding provisions of Chapter 3 of the Code. Lessee shall file notice of such appointment with the Director of Foreign
Operations District of Internal Revenue Service in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.1441-7(b). Such agency shall terminate in the event that Applicable Laws are amended so as to
release Lessee of the obligation to withhold Taxes with respect to payments made by Lessee to Agent Lessor under the Lease and in any event upon termination or expiration of the Lease.

    (ii) If
and to the extent Agent Lessor or its agent has in good faith attempted to comply with its obligation to withhold Taxes in accordance
with clause (i) and a claim regarding withholding Taxes is made against Agent Lessor or its agent, as between
Lessee and Agent Lessor (or its agent), Lessee shall be responsible for, and Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent Lessor (and its agent) (without duplication of any indemnification required
by subsection (a)) on an After Tax Basis against, such claim to the extent, but only to the extent, Agent Lessor or its agent has
actually paid funds to a
taxing authority with respect to such withholding taxes or receives a demand for such payment from any taxing authority.

    (iii) Except
with respect to withholding Taxes payable by Lessee pursuant to Section 14.3, each
Participant agrees to reimburse Agent Lessor or its agent for any withholding Taxes for which Agent Lessor or its agent becomes liable and to reimburse Lessee for any Taxes or other amounts paid by
Lessee pursuant to clause (ii) hereof.



    (iv) For
purposes of determining whether withholding Taxes apply to payments under the Lease, it shall be assumed that the Lease constitutes a loan for United States
Federal income tax purposes (as is the parties' intention).




    SECTION
12.6.  Gross Up.  If an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to a corresponding and equal deduction
with respect to any payment or Tax which Lessee is required to pay or reimburse under any other provision of this Article XII
 (each such payment or reimbursement under this Article XII, an "original payment") and
which original payment constitutes income to such Indemnitee when accrued or received, then Lessee shall pay to, or for the account of, such Indemnitee on demand the amount of such original payment on
an After Tax Basis.


  ARTICLE XIII LIMITATION ON RECOURSE LIABILITY DURING CONSTRUCTION PERIOD  


    Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Participation Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents, in the event of the occurrence of a
Construction Agency Event of Default occurring during the Interim Term and until the Base Term Commencement Date has occurred, Lessee shall not be required to pay more than the Construction Recourse
Amount on a recourse basis with respect to any damages (which shall include Construction Breakage Costs and amounts payable by Construction Agent as Default Completion Costs) which relate to or arise
from any such Construction Agency Event of Default; provided, however,
that the foregoing limitation shall not apply (i) with respect to any Full Recourse Interim Term Event of Default, (ii) with respect to the rights of parties to seek all damages, without
regard to such limitation, from the proceeds of the Premises or any other Collateral or (iii) to any Claim for indemnity under Article XII
 or under any other Operative Document.


  ARTICLE XIV LIBOR PROVISIONS; ADDITIONAL COSTS  

    SECTION
14.1.  LIBO Rate Lending Unlawful.  If any Participant shall determine (which determination
shall, upon notice thereof to Lessee and the Participants, be conclusive and binding on Lessee) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any
central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Participant to make available, continue or maintain any Certificate Amount that accrues Rent based upon the LIBO
Rate, the obligation of such Participant to make available, continue or maintain any such Certificate Amount, shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended until such Participant shall notify
Lessee and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and, to the extent required by any such introduction of or change in or in the interpretation of any
law, all Certificate Amounts of such Participant that accrue Rent based upon the LIBO Rate shall automatically accrue Rent at the Alternate Base Rate either (a) on the last day of the then
current Interest Period applicable to such Certificate Amount if such Participant may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Certificate Amount, or (b) immediately if such Participant
shall determine that
it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Certificate Amount to such day thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion.

    SECTION
14.2.  Deposits Unavailable.  If any of the Participants shall have determined that:



    (a) Dollar
deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to such Participant in its relevant market; or

    (b) by
reason of circumstances affecting such Participant's relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Rent applicable to such Participant's
Certificate Amounts,





then,
upon notice from such Participant to Lessee, the Administrative Agent and the other Participants, (i) the obligations of the Participants to make available Certificate Amounts shall be
suspended and (ii) each outstanding Certificate Amount shall begin to accrue Rent at the Alternate Base Rate on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

    SECTION
14.3.  Increased Costs, etc.  If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness,
interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank,
regulator or other Governmental Authority increases or would increase the cost to any Participant of, or reduces or would reduce the amount of any sum receivable by, such Participant in respect of,
making available, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make available, continue or maintain) or prevents or would prevent any Participant from being legally entitled to a complete
exemption from withholding as described in Section 9.2 with respect to any Certificate Amounts, Lessee agrees to
reimburse such Participant for each such increased cost or reduced amount when applicable to such Participant or its parent, as applicable (on an After Tax Basis). Such Participant shall promptly
notify each Agent and Lessee in writing of the occurrence of any such event, such notice to state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate
such Participant for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by Lessee as Supplemental Rent directly to such Participant within five days of its receipt of such
notice. A statement of a Participant as to any such additional amount or amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding on Lessee. In determining such amount, each Participant shall use any method of averaging or attribution that it (in its reasonable discretion) shall deem applicable.

    SECTION
14.4.  Funding Losses.  In the event any Participant shall incur any loss or
out-of-pocket expense (including any Break Costs and any loss or out-of-pocket expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits
or other funds acquired by such Participant to make available, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of any Certificate Amount) as a result of:



    (a) any
conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Certificate Amounts on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto; or

    (b) any
Certificate Amounts not being made in accordance with the Advance Request therefor (unless such failure to fund such Certificate Amounts, as the case may be,
constitutes a breach by the applicable Participant of its obligations under Article III),



then,
upon the written notice of such Participant to Lessee (with a copy to each Agent), Lessee shall, within five days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Participant as Supplemental Rent
such amount (determined on the basis of such Participant's standard practices) as will reimburse such
Participant for such loss or out-of-pocket expense. Such written notice (which shall include calculations in sufficiently reasonable detail to indicate the incurrence and
amount of such loss and out-of-pocket expense) shall be presumed correct and binding on Lessee absent demonstrable error.

    SECTION
14.5.  Increased Capital Costs.  If any change, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness,
interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank,
regulator or other Governmental Authority affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Participant or any Person controlling such Participant, and such
Participant reasonably determines that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person's capital as a consequence of its Commitments or the Certificate Amounts made available by such Participant
is reduced to a level below that which such Participant or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then, in any such case upon notice from time to
time by such Participant to Lessee (with a copy to each Agent), Lessee shall immediately pay directly to such

Participant or such controlling Persons for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Participant as to any such additional amount or amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable
detail) shall be presumed correct and binding on Lessee absent manifest error. In determining such amount, such Participant shall use its standard practice in determining such amount, and, in the
absence of such standard practice, may use any reasonable method of averaging and attribution that it shall deem applicable.

    SECTION
14.6.  After Tax Basis.  Lessee shall pay all amounts owing under this Article XIV on an After Tax Basis.

    SECTION
14.7.  Funding Office.  If Lessee is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of
any Participant pursuant to Sections 14.1 to 14.3, to
the extent applicable, then such Participant will agree to use reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment
which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the sole judgment of such Participant, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Participant.

DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREE THAT THEY WILL NOT
SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LITIGATION WITH ANY OTHER LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS NOT OR CANNOT BE WAIVED. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 15.13

individual capacity, shall have no personal liability whatsoever to Lessee, the Participants or any of their respective successors and assigns for any Claim based on or in respect of this
Participation Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents or arising in any way from the Overall Transaction; provided, however, that Agent
Lessor shall be liable in its individual capacity: (a) for
its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (or negligence in the handling of funds) and, to each Participant for the breach of its obligations to such Participant in respect of the Operative
Documents and the Premises, (b) for liabilities that may result from the incorrectness of any representation or warranty expressly made by it in this Participation Agreement or from its failure
to perform the covenants and agreements set forth in this Participation Agreement or any other Operative Document, or (c) for any Tax based on or measured by any fees, commission or
compensation received by it for actions contemplated by the Operative Documents. It is understood and agreed that, except as provided in the preceding proviso, Agent Lessor shall have no personal

Appendix, Schedule or Exhibit hereto, and all documents relating hereto received by a party hereto, including, without limitation: (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be

other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Participant may be reproduced by the party receiving the same by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, micro-card, miniature
photographic or other similar process. Each of the parties hereto agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by 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 party in the regular course of business) and
that, to the extent permitted by law, any

enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.

    SECTION
15.17.  Non-Petition.  Each of Lessee, each Purchaser, Agent Lessor and each other
Participant hereby agrees that it shall not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, any Tranche A1 Participant any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceeding or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and a day after the latest maturing indebtedness for borrowed money issued by that
Tranche A1 Participant is paid. This Section 15.17 shall survive the termination of this Participation Agreement.

    SECTION
15.18.  Assignment of Tranche A1 Participant's Interest to Purchasers.  In the event a Tranche A1
Participant exercises its option to sell all of its interests under the Operative Documents to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Transfer Agreements, the Tranche A1 Participant,
without further act, will be deemed to have assigned to the Purchasers on a several basis in accordance with their Purchase Percentages all of its right, title and interest in the Operative Documents,
and the Purchasers will be deemed to have assumed as of the date of transfer on a several basis as aforesaid all obligations of the Tranche A1 Participant arising on or after the date of transfer. In
the event a Tranche A1 Participant assigns all or a portion of its Certificate Amounts and its rights and interests under its Transfer Agreement to ABN AMRO Bank N.V. or any other Person in accordance
with Section 4.12(f) of the Transfer Agreement, then (unless and until repurchased by a Tranche A1 Participant pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Transfer Agreement) such Tranche A1
Participant, without further act, will be deemed to have assigned to such Person all or a portion, as applicable, of its right, title and interest in the Operative Documents and such Person will be
deemed to have assumed all or a portion, as applicable, of the obligations of the Tranche A1 Participant arising on or after the date of such assignment. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
Lessee of any assignment pursuant to this Section 15.18.


    SECTION
15.19.  Deliveries to Participants.  Lessee may fulfill its obligations hereunder and under each
of the other Operative Documents to provide any item (other than any notices) to any Participant by providing sufficient copies of such item directly to Agent Lessor, along with the costs of postage,
with instructions to Agent Lessor to deliver such item to such Participant.

    SECTION
15.20.  Excess Funds.  The Tranche A1 Participant shall be required to make payment of the
amounts required to be paid pursuant hereto only if the Tranche A1 Participant has Excess Funds (as defined below). If the Tranche A1 Participant does not have Excess Funds, the excess of the amounts
due hereunder over the amount paid shall not constitute a "claim" (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code) against the Tranche A1 Participant until such time as the Tranche
A1 Participant has Excess Funds. If the Tranche A1 Participant does not have sufficient Excess Funds to make any payment due hereunder, then the Tranche A1 Participant may pay a lesser amount and make
additional payments that in the aggregate equal the amount of deficiency as soon as possible thereafter. The term "Excess Funds" means the excess of
(a) the aggregate projected value of the Tranche A1 Participant's assets and other property (including cash and cash equivalents), over (b) the sum of (i) the sum of all scheduled
payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable on publicly or privately placed indebtedness of the Tranche A1 Participant for borrowed money, plus (ii) the sum of all other
liabilities, indebtedness and other obligations of the Tranche A1 Participant for borrowed money or owed to any credit or liquidity provider, together with all unpaid interest then accrued thereon,
plus (iii) all taxes payable by the Tranche A1 Participant to the Internal Revenue Service, plus (iv) all other indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of the Tranche A1 Participant
then due and payable, but the amount of any liability, indebtedness or obligation of the Tranche A1 Participant shall not exceed the projected value of the assets to which recourse for such liability,
indebtedness or obligation is limited. Excess Funds shall be calculated once each Business Day.





  ARTICLE XVI AGENTS  

    SECTION
16.1.  Appointment of Agents; Powers and Authorization to Take Certain Actions.  



    (a) Each
Participant irrevocably appoints and authorizes Lease Plan North America, Inc., to act as its Agent Lessor hereunder and under the other Operative
Documents, and the Bank to act as its Administrative Agent hereunder and under such Operative Documents, with such powers as are specifically delegated to Agent Lessor or the Administrative Agent, as
the case may be, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Participant authorizes and directs Agent Lessor to, and Agent Lessor agrees
for the benefit of the Participants that it will, on the initial Advance Date and each other Advance Date, accept the documents described in Article III
 of this Participation Agreement. Each of the Agents accepts the agency hereby created applicable to it and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, agrees to
receive all payments and proceeds pursuant to the Operative Documents and disburse such payments or proceeds in accordance with the Operative Documents. Neither Agent shall have any duties or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Lease and this Participation Agreement. Neither Agent shall be responsible to any Participant (or to any other Person) (i) for any
recitals, statements, representations or warranties of any party contained in the Lease, this Participation Agreement, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or
received by any of them under, the Operative Documents, other than in the case of Agent Lessor the representations and warranties made by Agent Lessor in Section 7.4, or (ii) for the value,
 validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of the Collateral or the title thereto
(subject to Agent Lessor's obligations under Section 9.1) or of the Lease or any other document referred to or provided for
therein or (iii) for any failure by Lessee, any Participant or any other third party (other than such Agent) to perform any of its obligations under any Operative Agreement. Each Agent may
employ agents, trustees or attorneys-in-fact, may vest any of them with any property, title, right or power deemed necessary for the purposes of such appointment and shall not
be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any of them selected by it. Neither Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder, or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

    (b) Neither
Agent shall have any duty or obligation to manage, control, use, operate, store, lease, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Premises, any other
Collateral or the Lease, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Agreement, the Lease or any related document to which such Agent is a party, except
as expressly provided by the terms hereof or
by law, and no implied duties of any kind shall be read into any Operative Agreement against either Agent. The permissive right of either Agent to take actions enumerated in any Operative Document
shall never be construed as a duty, unless such Agent is instructed or directed to exercise, perform or enforce one or more rights by the Required Participants (provided that such Agent has received
indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it). No provision of the Operative Documents shall require either Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its obligations under the Operative Documents, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers thereunder. It is understood and agreed that the duties of each Agent are
ministerial in nature.

    (c) Except
as specifically provided herein, each Agent is acting hereunder solely as agent and is not responsible to any party hereto in its individual capacity, except
with respect to any claim arising from such Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct or any breach of a representation or covenant made in its individual capacity.



    (d) Each
Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to and otherwise deal with Lessee or any of its Affiliates with the same rights as it would have if it were not a
named Agent hereunder.



    SECTION
16.2.  Reliance.  Each Agent may rely upon, and shall not be bound or obligated to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in, any certificate, notice or other communication (including any communication by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) reasonably believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been made, signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other
experts selected by such Agent (including any expert selected by such Agent to aid such Agent in any calculations required in connection with its duties under the Operative Documents).

    SECTION
16.3.  Action Upon Instructions Generally.  Subject to Sections 16.4 and 16.6, upon written instructions of the Required Participants,
Agent Lessor shall, on behalf of the Participants, give such notice or direction, exercise such right, remedy or approval or power hereunder or in respect of the Premises, and give such consent or
enter into such amendment to any document to which it is a party as Agent Lessor as may be specified in such instructions. Agent Lessor shall deliver to each Participant a copy of each notice, report
and certificate received by Agent Lessor pursuant to the Operative Documents. Neither Agent shall have any obligation to investigate or determine whether there has been an Event of Default or Default.
Neither Agent shall be deemed to have notice or knowledge of an Event of Default or Default unless a Responsible Officer of such Agent is notified in writing of such Event of Default or Default. If
either Agent receives notice of an Event of Default, such Agent shall give prompt notice thereof, at Lessee's expense, to each Participant. Subject to Sections
16.4, 16.6 and 15.5, such Agent
shall take action or refrain from taking action with respect to such Event of Default as directed by the Required Participants; provided that, unless and until such Agent receives such directions,
such Agent may refrain from taking any action, or may act in its discretion, with respect to such Event of Default. Prior to the date the Lease Balance shall have become due and payable by
acceleration pursuant to Section 18.2 of the Lease, Required Participants may deliver written instructions to Agent Lessor to waive, and Agent Lessor shall waive pursuant thereto, any Event of
Default and its consequences; provided that in the absence of written instructions from all Participants, Agent Lessor
shall not waive any (i) Payment Default or (ii) covenant or provision which, under Section 15.5, cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of all Participants. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Participants and such instructions of the Required Participants and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall
be binding on each Participant.

    SECTION
16.4.  Indemnification.  Each Participant shall reimburse and hold each Agent harmless, ratably
in accordance with its outstanding Certificate Amount at the time the indemnification is required to be given (but only to the extent that any such indemnified amounts have not in fact been paid to
such Agent by, or on behalf of, Lessee in accordance with Section 12.1), from any and all claims, losses, damages, obligations,
penalties, liabilities, demands, suits, judgments, or causes of action, and all legal proceedings, and any reasonable costs or expenses in connection therewith, including allocated charges, costs and
expenses of internal counsel of such Agent and all other reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by such Agent, in any way relating to or arising in any manner out of (i) any Operative
Document, the enforcement hereof or thereof or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, or (ii) instructions from the Required Participants (including, without limitation, the
costs and expenses that Lessee is obligated to and does not pay hereunder), provided that no Participant shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from (a) the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent, (b) the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or breach of any covenant given by such Agent in Section 7.4 or Section 9.1 hereof or in the Lease,
(c) in the case of such Agent's handling of funds, the failure to act with the same care as

such Agent uses in handling its own funds or (d) any taxes, fees or other charges payable by such Agent based on or measured by any fees, commissions or compensation received by it for acting
as an Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

    SECTION
16.5.  Independent Credit Investigation.  Each Participant by entering into this Agreement agrees
that it has, independently and without reliance on either Agent or any other Participant and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of
Lessee and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and each of the other Operative Documents to which it is a party and that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any
other Participant, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking action under this Agreement and any
related documents to which it is a party. Neither Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Lessee of any other document referred to (directly or
indirectly) or provided for herein or to inspect the properties or books of Lessee. Except for notices or statements which an Agent is expressly required to give under this Agreement and for notices,
reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to an Agent alone (and not also to each Participant, it being understood that such Agent shall forward copies of same to
each Participant) hereunder or under any other Operative Agreement, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Participant with copies of notices or with any credit or other
information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of Lessee (or any of its Affiliates) that may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its Affiliates.

    SECTION
16.6.  Refusal to Act.  Except for notices and actions expressly required of an Agent hereunder
and except for the performance of its covenants in Section 9.1, each Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or
refusing to act unless (a) it is indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Participants against any and all liability and reasonable expense which may be incurred by it by reason of
taking or continuing to take any such action (provided that such indemnity shall not be required to extend to liability or expense arising from any matter described in clauses (a) through
(d) of Section 16.4, it being understood that no action taken by an Agent in accordance with the instructions of the
Required Participants shall be deemed to constitute any such matter) and (b) it is reasonably satisfied that such action is not contrary to any Operative Document or to any Applicable Law.

    SECTION
16.7.  Resignation or Removal of an Agent; Appointment of Successor.  Subject to the appointment
and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, either Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to each Participant and Lessee. Upon any such resignation, the Required
Participants at the time of the resignation shall have the right (with the reasonable, prompt approval of Lessee unless an Event of Default shall be continuing) to appoint a successor Agent which
shall be a financial institution having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000. If, within 30 calendar days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, a
successor Agent is not so appointed and does not accept such appointment, then the retiring Agent may appoint a successor Agent and transfer to such successor Agent all rights and obligations of the
retiring Agent. Such successor Agent shall be a financial institution having combined capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a
successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged
from duties and obligations as Agent thereafter arising hereunder and under any related document. If the retiring Agent does not appoint a successor, any Participant shall be entitled to apply to a
court of competent jurisdiction for such appointment, and such court may thereupon appoint a successor to act until such time, if any, as a successor shall have been appointed as above provided.

    SECTION
16.8.  Separate Agent Lessor.  The Required Participants may, and if they fail to do so at any
time when they are so required, Agent Lessor may, for the purpose of meeting any legal

requirements of any jurisdiction in which the Premises or Collateral may be located, appoint one or more individuals or corporations either to act as co-agent jointly with Agent Lessor or
to act as separate agent of all or any part of the Premises or Collateral or the Lease, and vest in such individuals or corporations, in such capacity, such title to the Premises or Collateral or the
Lease or any part thereof, and such rights or duties as Agent Lessor may consider necessary or desirable. Agent Lessor shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is
not now so qualified. Agent Lessor shall execute, acknowledge and deliver all such instruments as may be required by any such co-agent or separate agent more fully confirming such title,
rights or duties to such co-agent or separate agent. Upon the acceptance in writing of such appointment by any such co-agent or separate agent, it, she or he shall be vested
with such interest in the Premises or Collateral and the Lease or any part thereof, and with such rights and duties, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Operative Documents, as shall be
specified in the instrument of appointment, jointly with Agent Lessor (except insofar as local law makes it necessary for any such co-agent or separate agent to act alone), subject to all
terms of the Operative Documents. Any co-agent or separate agent, to the fullest extent permitted by legal requirements of the relevant jurisdiction, at any time, by an instrument in
writing, shall constitute Agent Lessor its attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power and authority to do all acts and things and to exercise all discretion on its behalf and
in its name. If any co-agent or separate agent shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, the interest in the Premises or Collateral and the Lease and all rights and
duties of such co-agent or separate agent shall, so far as permitted by law, vest in and be exercised by Agent Lessor, without the appointment of a successor to such co-agent
or separate agent.

    SECTION
16.9.  Termination of Agency.  The agency created hereby shall terminate upon the final
disposition by Agent Lessor of all Collateral at any time subject hereto and the final distribution by the Administrative Agent of all moneys or other property or proceeds received pursuant to the
Lease in accordance with its terms, provided that at such time Lessee shall have complied fully with all the terms hereof.

    SECTION
16.11.  Limitations.  It is expressly understood and agreed by and among the parties hereto that,
except as otherwise provided herein or in the other Operative Documents: (a) this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Documents to which either Agent is a party are executed by such
Agent, not in its individual capacity (except with respect to the representations and covenants of Agent Lessor in Sections 7.4
 and 9.1), but solely as Agent Lessor or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, under the
Operative Documents in the exercise of the power and authority conferred and vested in it as such Agent; (b) each and all of the undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of such
Agent are each and every one of them made and intended not as personal undertakings and agreements by such Agent, or for the purpose or with the intention of binding such Agent personally, but are
made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Collateral unless expressly provided otherwise; (c) actions to be taken by such Agent pursuant to its obligations under the Operative
Documents may, in certain circumstances, be taken by such Agent only upon specific authority of the Participants; (d) nothing contained in the Operative Documents shall be construed as creating
any liability on such Agent, individually or personally, or any incorporator or any past, present or future subscriber to the capital stock of, or stockholder, officer or director, employee or agent
of, such Agent to perform any covenants either express or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the other parties hereto and by any Person claiming by,
through or under them; and (e) so far as such Agent, individually or personally, is concerned, the other parties

hereto and any Person claiming by, through or under them shall look solely to the Collateral and Lessee for the performance of any obligation under any of the instruments referred to herein; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section 16.11 shall be construed to limit in scope or substance the general
corporate liability of such Agent in respect of its gross negligence or willful misconduct or with respect to Agent Lessor those representations, warranties and covenants of Agent in its individual
capacity set forth herein or in any of the other agreements contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Section 16.11
 shall affect the duties, liabilities and obligations of Agent Lessor or the Administrative Agent in its additional capacity as Participant.

    SECTION
16.12.  Confidentiality.  Each Participant and each Agent shall maintain in confidence and not
disclose to any Person any non-public information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement and designated by the Lessee in writing as such
("Confidential Information") without the prior consent of the Lessee, subject to each Participant's and each Agent's (a) obligation to disclose
any Confidential Information pursuant to a request or order under applicable laws and regulations or pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process, (b) right to disclose any Confidential
Information to other Participants, to bank examiners, to its affiliates, auditors and counsel, and to any prospective transferee pursuant to Section 11
 approved by the Lessee (if such approval is required pursuant to Section 11),
(c) right to disclose any Confidential Information in connection with any litigation or dispute or the exercise of any remedy hereunder involving either Agent or the Participants and the Lessee
or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that Confidential
Information disclosed pursuant to clause (b) or (c)
 of this sentence shall be so disclosed subject to such procedures as are reasonably calculated to maintain the confidentiality thereof and (d) right to
disclose any Confidential Information to any rating agency rating the Commercial Paper. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 16.12, (a) the foregoing obligation of
confidentiality shall not apply to any Confidential Information that was known to such Agent,
Participant or any of their respective affiliates prior to the time it received such Confidential Information from the Lessee pursuant to this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement, other than as
a result of the disclosure thereof by a Person who, to the knowledge or reasonable belief of such Participant, was prohibited from disclosing it by any duty of confidentiality arising (under this
Agreement or otherwise) by contract or law, and (b) the foregoing obligation of confidentiality shall not apply to any Confidential Information that becomes part of the public domain
independently of any act of such Participant not permitted hereunder or when identical or substantially similar information is received by such Participant, without
restriction as to its disclosure or use, from a Person who was not prohibited from disclosing it by any duty of confidentiality arising (under this Agreement or otherwise) by contract or law. The
obligations of each Participant and each Agent under this Section 16.12 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of any Certificates and all other amounts payable thereunder.



    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Participation Agreement to be duly executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first
above written.
