Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Class A Advances at any time prior to the Commitment Expiry Date.

SECTION 2.02. Making Advances.

(a) Advances. Each request for a Borrowing hereunder shall be made by the Borrower by the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Insurer of a written notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date for such Borrowing (a “Borrowing Date”), which shall occur no more frequently than once each week; provided, that, on the Class B Funded Date the Borrower may submit two separate Borrowing Notices provided that all other conditions have been satisfied. The Administrative Agent shall promptly forward a copy of each Borrowing Notice to each Class A Lender or Class B Lender, as applicable, and simultaneously notify such Lenders of the amounts of Advances included in such Borrowing and each Lender of its share of such Advances; provided, that with respect to Class A Lenders, such share shall be equal to such Class A Lender’s Class A Pro Rata Share and with respect to Class B Lenders such share shall be determined pursuant to the Class B Side Letter.

Each Lender, to the extent they believe an applicable condition precedent set forth set forth in Article V has not been satisfied, shall notify the Borrower of such belief prior to the applicable Borrowing Date.

If any Lender incurs any Breakage Costs as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the proposed Borrowing Date the applicable conditions set forth in Article V or such Borrowing not being made on the applicable Borrowing Date for any other reason (except any failure of such Lender to perform), the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender for such Breakage Costs.

(b) All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days (including the first day but, other than for purposes of the definition of “Interest Period”, excluding the last day) elapsed. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder, and in the case of the CP Rate each determination thereof by a Conduit Lender hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement identifying the rate quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate hereunder.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, in the case of any payment of any Advance bearing interest determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, if such extension would cause

payment to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

SECTION 2.10. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Lender determines based upon the advice of counsel (which may be internal counsel) that (i) the introduction of or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law, which change or interpretation is issued after the date hereof, or (ii) compliance with any official directive, guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of Law) issued after the date hereof or any change in the interpretation or administration of any such official directive, guideline or request made after the date hereof:

(i) shall subject any Lender or any related Liquidity Provider to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender with respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.11 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, Advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or such Liquidity Provider that is not otherwise included in the determination of the interest rate hereunder; or

(iii)

shall impose on such Lender or Liquidity Provider any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or Liquidity Provider, of making, funding or maintaining Advances hereunder, or performing any of its other Obligations under or in relation to this Agreement or any similar agreement relating hereto, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent), pay to the Collateral Agent for the account of such Lender or Liquidity Provider any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Liquidity Provider for such increased cost actually incurred by such Lender or Liquidity Provider. If any Lender or Liquidity Provider becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing, with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) If any Lender or Liquidity Provider determines based upon the advice of counsel (which may be internal counsel) that compliance, by it or any corporation controlling such Lender or Liquidity Provider with any Law or any official directive, guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority or Rating Agency (whether or not having the force of Law) regarding the amounts of capital to be maintained issued after the date hereof shall have the affect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, Liquidity Provider’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of the existence of any agreement of such Lender or Liquidity Provider to make, or its making, funding or maintaining, any Advance, hereunder or any similar agreement relating hereto, of such type, to a level below that which such Lender, Liquidity Provider or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s, Liquidity Provider’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) then, upon demand by such Lender or Liquidity Provider (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Collateral Agent for the account of such Lender or Liquidity Provider, from time to time as specified by such Lender or Liquidity Provider in the aforesaid notice, additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Liquidity Provider in the light of such circumstances; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Liquidity Provider pursuant to this clause (b) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date on which such Lender or Liquidity Provider notified the Borrower of such Lender’s or Liquidity Provider’s intention to claim compensation therefore.

(c) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the benefit of any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section, such Indemnified Party will, at the Borrower’s request, use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such costs, provided, that such efforts are not otherwise disadvantageous to such Indemnified Party.

SECTION 2.11. Taxes.

(a) Except to the extent required by applicable law, any and all payments and deposits required to be made hereunder by the Borrower or under any instrument delivered hereunder by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (excluding net income taxes that are imposed by the United States and franchise taxes and net income taxes that are imposed on the Collateral Agent, the Insurer or any Lender by the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such party is organized or any political subdivision thereof (“Excluded Taxes”)). If the Borrower shall be required by law to make any deductions for any taxes, levies, imposts, deduction, charge or withholdings, other than Excluded Taxes (collectively, “Non-Excluded Taxes”), (i) the Borrower shall make an additional payment to the applicable Indemnified Party, in an amount sufficient so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11), such Indemnified Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other governmental authority in accordance with applicable law, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any

Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable solely to such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraphs (c) or (d) of this Section or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or other documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any instrument delivered hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any instrument delivered hereunder.

(c) Each Indemnified Party that is not a “United States Person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, on or prior to the date that such Indemnified Party becomes a party to or obtains rights under this Agreement, and prior to any payment being made by the Borrower to such Indemnified Party, deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent (i) two properly completed and duly executed copies (with the originals sent to the Collateral Agent) of either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or W-8 ECI (or any successor form) as applicable; and (ii) such other forms or certificates as may be required under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction (on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete), in order to permit the Borrower and the Collateral Agent to make payments to, and deposit funds to or for the account of, such Indemnified Party hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any tax. Each such Indemnified Party shall submit to the Collateral Agent (with copies to the Borrower and Administrative Agent) two updated, completed, and duly executed versions of: (i) all forms referred to in the previous sentence upon the expiry of, or the occurrence of any event requiring a change in, the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower or the substitution of such form; and (ii) such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose).

(d) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the benefit of any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section as a result of a change of Law or treaty occurring after such Indemnified Party first became a party to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party will, at the Borrower’s request, change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if, in the sole judgment of such Indemnified Party, such change (i) will eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue and (ii) is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Indemnified Party.

SECTION 2.12. Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event any Lender (an “Affected Lender”): (i) shall have failed to fund its Class A Pro Rata Share of any Class A Advance or its share (as determined pursuant to the Class B Side Letter) of any Class B Advance, as applicable, requested by the Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement or the Class B Side Letter and which failure has not been cured, (ii) shall have

requested compensation from the Borrower under Sections 2.10 or 2.11 to recover taxes or other additional costs incurred by such Lender which are not being incurred generally by the other Lenders or (iii) shall have delivered a notice claiming that such Class A Lender or Class B Lender, as applicable, is unable to extend Advances using the CP Rate or the LIBO Rate to the Borrower for reasons not generally applicable to the other Class A Lenders or Class B Lenders, as applicable, then, in any such case, the Borrower may make written demand on such Affected Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Insurer) for the Affected Lender to assign, and such Affected Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment and Acceptances within five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more financial institutions that is an Eligible Assignee which the Borrower shall have engaged for such purpose (a “Replacement Lender”), all of such Affected Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including its Commitment and all Advances owing to it) in accordance with Section 11.01. Further, with respect to such assignment the Affected Lender shall have concurrently received, in cash, all amounts due and owing to the Affected Lender hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, including the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owed to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such assignment and amounts payable under Sections 2.10 or 2.11 with respect to such Affected Lender; provided, that upon such Affected Lender’s replacement, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 2.11, as well as to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid, and shall continue to be obligated under Section 12.10.

SECTION 2.13. Claims Under Insurance Policy and Related Matters.

(a) If the Settlement Report delivered for any Quarterly Payment Date occurring after the expiration of the Capitalization Period indicates that the amount of available funds on deposit in the Collection Account, Class A Liquidity Reserve Account and in the Borrower Blocked Account are insufficient to pay in full the accrued and unpaid interest and Unused Commitment Fees due on the Class A Advances, in each case, as described in Section 3.01(c)(ix) herein (based upon the priority of payments set forth in Section 3.01(c) herein), the Collateral Agent shall, no later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding such Quarterly Payment Date, make a claim under the Insurance Policy for the “Insured Amount” (as defined in the Insurance Policy) at that time. Amounts remitted by the Insurer to the Collateral Agent in payment of any such claim shall be distributed to the Class A Lenders in respect of the amount of interest and Unused Commitment Fees due to such Class A Lender under Section 3.01(c)(ix). The parties hereto agree that the occurrence of a Mandatory Prepayment Event shall not permit a draw in respect of outstanding principal amounts under the Insurance Policy prior to the Legal Final Maturity Date.

(b) If on the Legal Final Maturity Date the amount of available funds on deposit in the Collection Account, the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account and the Borrower Blocked Account is insufficient to pay the “Outstanding Amount” (as defined in the Insurance Policy) (based upon the priority of payments set forth in Section 3.01(c) herein), the Collateral Agent shall, no later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately

preceding such Legal Final Maturity Date, make a claim under the Insurance Policy for the “Insured Amount” (as defined in the Insurance Policy) at such time. Amounts remitted by the Insurer to the Collateral Agent in payment of any such claim shall be distributed to the Class A Lenders in respect of the “Outstanding Amount” (as defined in the Insurance Policy) of the Class A Notes held by such Class A Lenders. Notwithstanding the application of amounts paid by the Insurer to the principal amount of the Notes, as between the Borrower and the Insurer, all such principal amount shall be deemed outstanding until and to the extent paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Insurance Agreement.

(c) In connection with the making of such claim on any Quarterly Payment Date or on the Legal Final Maturity Date, the Class A Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Insurer shall be, and hereby is, assigned the interests of the Class A Lenders with respect to each such claim. The Borrower and the Administrative Agent hereby acknowledge and agree to the foregoing and hereby waive any transfer restriction applicable to the transfer of any such claim or interest. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed by the Class A Lenders to execute and deliver to the Insurer such instruments and documents as the Insurer may reasonably request confirming or evidencing such assignment.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall enforce all obligations under the Insurance Policy on behalf of all of the Class A Lenders.

(e) Upon the occurrence of an Insurer Replacement Event, the Administrative Agent may (with the consent of the Required Lenders) and shall (at the direction of the Required Lenders) select a replacement Insurer. Such a replacement shall only be effective upon payment to the Insurer of all amounts owed to it under the Insurance Agreement and the return of the Insurance Policy to the Insurer. Other than the termination of the Insurance Policy contemporaneously with the effectiveness of a substantially similar financial guaranty insurance policy issued by a replacement Insurer at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Collateral Agent may terminate the Insurance Policy only at the written direction or with the written consent of all of the Class A Lenders and the Borrower. The Borrower hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts in assisting the Administrative Agent in obtaining a replacement Insurer, including, providing any reasonably necessary data, books, records or other information relating to the Transaction Documents, Ancillary Documents, Completion Bonds and Collateral. Any replacement Insurer shall be subject to the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

(f) The Class B Lenders shall have no rights with respect to the Insurance Policy or any proceeds thereof.

The Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower Blocked Account Bank hereby agree that the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control over the Borrower Blocked Account and that the Borrower Blocked Account Bank will comply with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent (i) directing disposition of the funds or (ii) directing transfer or redemption of the financial assets in the Borrower Blocked Account without further consent by the Borrower or any Marvel Company but with notice thereto; provided, that until the Collateral Agent provides notice to the contrary to the Borrower Blocked Account Bank, the Borrower Blocked Account Bank shall be entitled to comply with investment instructions originated by the Borrower without further consent by the Collateral Agent. The Borrower shall not instruct the Borrower Blocked Account Bank to withdraw or transfer any funds or financial assets held in the Borrower Blocked Account. The Collateral Agent shall not instruct the Borrower Blocked Account Bank to withdraw, transfer or redeem any funds or financial assets held in the Borrower Blocked Account except as provided in this Agreement. The taxpayer identification number associated with the Borrower Blocked Account shall be that of the Borrower and the Borrower will report for federal, state and local income tax purposes, the income, if any, represented by the Borrower Blocked Account. If, at any time, the Borrower Blocked Account Bank has ceased to be an Eligible Institution, the Collateral Agent shall within thirty (30) days establish a new Borrower Blocked Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution, shall enter into an account control agreement granting the Collateral Agent exclusive dominion and control over the Borrower Blocked Account in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Control Party, and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Borrower Blocked Account, and from the date such new Borrower Blocked Account is established, it shall be the “Borrower Blocked Account” and the applicable Eligible Institution shall be the “Borrower Blocked Account Bank”.

Funds on deposit in the Borrower Blocked Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, until notice to the contrary is provided by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower Blocked Account Bank as directed in writing by the Borrower (which may be a standing direction), that will mature or otherwise be available for withdrawal without penalty on each Quarterly Payment Date, with all realized interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) to remain a part of the Borrower Blocked Account as the property of the Borrower, subject to distribution pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Borrower Blocked Account Bank has not received written directions from the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall direct the Borrower Blocked Account to invest any cash amounts in the Borrower Blocked Account in Permitted Investments set forth in clause (g) of the definition thereof. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any loss incurred in connection with any investment in the Borrower Blocked Account, except for losses in respect of investments issued or guaranteed by the Collateral Agent.

If the Settlement Report delivered for any Quarterly Payment Date occurring after the expiration of the Capitalization Period indicates that the amount of available funds on deposit in the Collection Account is insufficient to pay in full the accrued and unpaid administrative

expenses of the Borrower as described in Sections 3.01(c)(vii) and (xix) herein or the accrued and unpaid interest and fees due and payable as described in Sections 3.01(c)(i), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xiii) and (xvii) herein, in each case based upon the priority of payments set forth in Section 3.01(c), the Collateral Agent shall direct the Borrower Blocked Account Bank to transfer from the Borrower Blocked Account an amount equal to such insufficiency and allocate such amount in accordance with Section 3.01(c). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, funds and investments on deposit or held in the Borrower Blocked Account may, with the consent or at the written direction of the Control Party, be liquidated (in the case of the investments) and allocated in accordance with Section 3.01(c).

(b) The Borrower Blocked Account shall have on deposit a minimum amount (the “Minimum Interest Reserve”) equal to the sum of:

(i) Three (3) months of projected interest on outstanding Advances hereunder calculated using the “Proxy Interest Rate” (as defined below) as of the most recent Quarterly Payment Date;

(ii) Three (3) months of projected Unused Commitment Fee calculated as of the most recent Quarterly Payment Date; and

(iii)

The Annual Administrative Expense Cap.

Solely for purposes of clause (i) above, “Proxy Interest Rate” means, on any date of determination, the weighted average interest rate, expressed as a per annum rate, determined pursuant to the following formula:

[CR x NA] + [DR x (PA-NA)]

where:

= the weighted average cap rate (weighted by notional amount) with respect to all Interest Rate Xxxxxx on such date, expressed as a per annum rate;

NA	=	the aggregate notional amount of all Interest Rate Xxxxxx on such date;
DR	=	the Default Rate on such date, expressed as a per annum rate; and
PA	=	the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances on such date.

(c) Amounts on deposit in the Borrower Blocked Account in excess of the Minimum Interest Reserve (x) shall be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Settlement Report delivered for any Quarterly Payment Date to satisfy any Mandatory Prepayment Amount that remains outstanding on any Quarterly Payment Date after allocation of funds in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.01(c), and (y) may be withdrawn by the Collateral Agent, at the written request of the Borrower for the limited purposes of:

(i) funding Direct Negative Costs of Motion Pictures; provided, that if such funding constitutes an Initial Funding, the conditions precedent set forth for Initial Fundings in Section 5.02 shall be satisfied prior to any such withdrawals and if such funding does not constitute an Initial Funding the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.03 shall be satisfied prior to any such withdrawals;

(ii) funding optional prepayments in accordance with Section 2.08(a), together with any Breakage resulting therefrom; provided that no accrued but unpaid interest remains unpaid;

(iii) with the prior written consent of the Lenders and the Insurer, making payments to MEI in an amount equal to MEI’s tax liability resulting from income of the Borrower attributable to MEI; or

(iv)

making Permitted Distributions;

provided, that, any request for funds made by the Borrower pursuant to this clause (c) shall certify that such funding is permitted under this Agreement and that all applicable conditions precedent for such funding as set forth in this Agreement have been met.

(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Acceleration Event, all amounts on deposit in the Borrower Blocked Account in excess of the Minimum Interest Reserve and thereafter any amounts directed to the Borrower Blocked Account pursuant to Section 3.01(c)(xx), shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to each Class A Lender, in accordance with such Class A Lender’s Outstanding Class A Pro Rata Share of the aggregate outstanding Class A Advances. If the Class A Collection Date has occurred during the continuation of an Acceleration Event, the Collateral Agent shall apply such amounts to each Class B Lender, in accordance with such Class B Lender’s Outstanding Class B Pro Rata Share of the aggregate outstanding Class B Advances.

SECTION 3.04. Payment Rescission. No payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents shall be considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or application is rescinded by application of Law or judicial authority, or must otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. The Borrower shall remain obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Collateral Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus interest on such amount at the Default Rate from the date of any such recission, return or refunding, to the extent permitted by applicable Law. For purposes of the foregoing, the Default Rate shall be calculated as if such recission, return or refunding were an Advance made on such date.

SECTION 3.05. Class A Liquidity Reserve Account.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall establish and shall thereafter maintain with HSBC (in such capacity, the “Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank”) the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account. The Borrower hereby grants a security interest to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account and all amounts and investments on deposit or held therein to secure all Obligations of the Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank shall agree that the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control over the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account and that the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank will comply with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent (i) directing disposition of the funds or (ii) directing transfer or redemption of the financial assets in the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account without further consent by the Borrower or any Marvel Company but with notice thereto; provided, that until the Collateral Agent provides notice to the contrary to the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank, the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank shall be entitled to comply with the investment instructions originated by the Borrower without further consent by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not instruct the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank to withdraw or transfer any funds or financial assets held in the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account except as provided in this Agreement. The Borrower shall not instruct the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank to withdraw or transfer any funds or financial assets held in the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account.

If, at any time, the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank has ceased to be an Eligible Institution, the Collateral Agent shall within thirty (30) days establish a new Class A Liquidity Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution, shall enter into an account control agreement granting the Collateral Agent exclusive dominion and control over the Class A liquidity Reserve Account in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Control Party and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Class A Liquidity Reserve Account, and from the date such new Class A Liquidity Reserve Account is established, it shall be the “Class A Liquidity Reserve Account” and the applicable Eligible Institution shall be the “Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank”.

(b) Funds on deposit in the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, until notice to the contrary is provided by the Collateral Agent to the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank, as directed in writing by the Borrower (which may be a standing direction), that will mature or otherwise be available for withdrawal without penalty on each Quarterly Payment Date, with all realized interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) to remain a part of the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account as the property of the Borrower, subject to distribution pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank has not received written directions from the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall direct the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank to invest any cash amounts in the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account in Permitted Investments set forth in clause (g) of the definition thereof. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any loss incurred in connection with any investment in the Class A Liquidity

Reserve Account, except for losses in respect of investments issued or guaranteed by the Collateral Agent.

(c) If the Settlement Report delivered for any Quarterly Payment Date occurring after the expiration of the Capitalization Period indicates that the amount of available funds on deposit in the Collection Account, after the application of any funds from the Borrower Blocked Account pursuant to Section 3.03(a), is insufficient to pay in full the accrued and unpaid interest and fees due and payable as described in Sections 3.01(c)(i), (vii), (viii) and (ix) herein, in each case based upon the priority of payments set forth in Section 3.01(c), the Collateral Agent shall withdraw from the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account an amount equal to such insufficiency and transfer such amount to the Collection Account to be allocated in accordance with Section 3.01(c).

The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

any claim or to take any action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

SECTION 4.05. Acknowledgment. The Collateral Agent acknowledges such grants, accepts the pledges hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof and agrees to perform the duties provided herein. The Secured Parties hereby acknowledge that the right to exercise or exploit the Film Rights is subject to the terms of the Master Agreement, the MVL License Agreement, the Studio Distribution Agreement and any other Distribution Agreements in effect with respect to the exploitation of the Film Rights.

No Transaction Document, Completion Bond or Ancillary Document shall create any legal or contractual obligation or liability of a Marvel Company, except to the extent that such Marvel Company is a signatory to such Transaction Document, Completion Bond or Ancillary Document, and except to the extent explicitly provided in such Transaction Document, Completion Bond or Ancillary Document.

SECTION 4.07. Further Assurances.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any proceeding constituting a Bankruptcy Event is commenced with respect to the Borrower by the Control Party or any other Person other than the Class B Lenders, the Class B Lenders may (i) make and present such proofs of claims against the Borrower on account of the Class B Obligations, and (ii) if the repayment of the Class A Obligations has been accelerated, then accelerate the repayment of the Class B Obligations.

SECTION 9.06. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Article IX are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Class B Lenders on the one hand and the Class A Lenders on the other hand. The foregoing shall not (a) impair, as among the Borrower, its creditors other than the Class A Lenders, and the Class B Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Class B Lenders the Class B Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the relative rights against the Borrower of the Class B Lenders and creditors of the Borrower other than the Class A Lenders; or (c) solely as between the Borrower and the Class B Lenders, prevent the Class B Lenders from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided, that this clause (c) shall not permit the Class B Lenders to act in contravention of the other terms and conditions of this Article IX or any other provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07. Option to Effectuate Assignment of the Class A Obligations. In the event that, following the Early Termination Date, the Collateral Agent, at the direction of the Control Party, commences the exercise of its enforcement rights described in Section 4.03, the Collateral Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent no later than the date on which the Control Party directs to the commencement of the solicitation of

SECTION 10.09. Rights of the Insurer to Direct Actions of the Agents.

(a) Each of the Agents agrees, and the Lenders hereby acknowledge, that, subject to Article X, so long as the Insurer is the Control Party, following the Insurer’s written request therefor with a copy to the Borrower, such Agent will take or refrain from taking any action and exercise or refrain from exercising any rights of such Agent hereunder, under the Master Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents in the manner described in the Insurer’s written request; provided, however, that the obligation of such Agent to take or refrain from taking, or to exercise or refrain from exercising, any such action or rights shall be limited to those actions and rights that can be exercised or taken (or not exercised or taken, as the case may be) in full compliance with the provisions of the Transaction Documents and applicable Law; provided, further, that such Agent shall have the right to decline to follow any direction if such Agent, being advised by counsel, determines that the action or inaction so directed may not lawfully be taken or if such Agent in good faith shall determine that the action or inaction so directed would be in violation of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the Completion Bonds or would subject such Agent to personal liability against which such Agent has not been provided reasonable indemnity.

(b) The Collateral Agent hereby irrevocably makes, designates, constitutes and appoints the Insurer as its attorney-in-fact, with power in the name of the Collateral Agent, subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Transaction Documents, to:

(i)

enforce, foreclose upon or repossess any Collateral;

(ii) exercise or direct the Collateral Agent to exercise (in which case the Collateral Agent agrees to exercise) the right pursuant to Sections 3.01(a), 3.03(a), and

3.05(a) to deliver instructions to the Collection Account Bank, the Borrower Blocked Account Bank and the Class A Liquidity Reserve Account Bank; and

(iii) following the designation of a distributor other than the Master Distributor pursuant to Section 3 of the Master Agreement, exercise or direct the Collateral Agent in writing to exercise (in which case the Collateral Agent agrees to exercise) any of the rights and remedies described in the Master Distributor Security Agreement;

Each Lender hereby consents to the appointment of the Insurer as the Collateral Agent’s attorney-in-fact as set forth in this subsection (b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Insurer shall have no right to amend the Insurance Agreement or the Insurance Policy on behalf of the Collateral Agent or the Class A Lenders without the written consent of the Collateral Agent and, with respect to the Insurance Policy, each Class A Lender.

SECTION 10.10. Additional Rights of the Insurer.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall receive as attorney-in-fact of each Class A Lender any amount paid by the Insurer. Any and all amounts disbursed by the Collateral Agent from claims made under the Insurance Policy shall not be considered payment by the Borrower with respect to such Class A Notes and shall not discharge the obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto. The Insurer shall, to the extent it makes any payment of any amount with respect to the Class A Notes, become subrogated to the rights of the recipient of such payments to the extent of such payments. Subject to and conditioned upon any payment with respect to the Class A Notes by or on behalf of the Insurer, the Collateral Agent shall assign to the Insurer all rights to the payment of interest or principal with respect to the Class A Notes which are then due for payment to the extent of all payments made by the Insurer, and the Insurer may exercise any option, vote, right, power or the like with respect to the Class A Notes to the extent that it has made a payment on the Class A Notes pursuant to the Insurance Policy. To evidence such subrogation, the Collateral Agent shall note the Insurer’s rights as subrogee upon the register of Class A Lenders upon receipt from the Insurer of payment by the Insurer of any amount with respect to the Class A Notes. The foregoing subrogation shall in all cases not impair the rights of the Class A Lenders to receive all amounts payable by the Insurer in respect of the Class A Notes. Each Class A Lender by accepting the benefit of the Insurance Policy and accepting a Class A Note acknowledges and agrees to the rights of subrogation of the Insurer under the Insurance Policy and otherwise under applicable Law.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the Insurer’s equitable right of subrogation and the Insurer’s rights under the Insurance Agreement and the Insurance Policy, each Lender acknowledges that the Insurer shall be fully subrogated to, and shall be vested with, all of the options, rights, powers and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Class A Lenders under the Transaction Documents to which any such Person is a party or under which any of the Collateral Agent or the Class A Lenders has any options, rights, powers or remedies in respect of

such amounts and, to the extent of such payment only, shall be fully subrogated to each such Person’s rights against any and all parties in connection with the Insured Obligation (as defined in the Insurance Agreement) until such nonpayment has been cured by or on behalf of the Borrower, and the Insurer shall have been reimbursed in full by or on behalf of the Borrower, for amounts paid by the Insurer to the Class A Lenders as a result of the nonpayment by or on behalf of the Borrower, plus interest accrued on the amount of such nonpayment at the Default Rate as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that the Insurer shall have the absolute right and discretion, without notice to any of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person, to exercise or fail to exercise any right, power or remedy that the Insurer may have under the Insurance Agreement or under any assignment required thereby. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that the Insurer shall have no liability to any of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person for any loss, damage or injury resulting from the Insurer’s exercise or failure to exercise any right, power or remedy that the Insurer may have under the Insurance Agreement or under any assignment required thereby, so long as such exercise or failure to exercise is in accordance with the Transaction Documents and applicable Law.

(c) Each Lender agrees, at the Borrower’s expense, to execute and deliver such documents, instruments, and assurances and to take, or cause to be taken, all actions reasonably required by the Insurer to evidence, preserve, enforce, perfect, or maintain the perfection in the Insurer’s favor of such interests, rights, and remedies and such equitable rights of subrogation. Each Lender agrees that it shall not without the prior written consent of the Insurer, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding relating to the preservation, enforcement, perfection or maintenance of the Insurer’s rights of subrogation or assignment with respect to the Insured Obligations (as defined in the Insurance Policy), to the extent of any payment made by the Insurer which has not been reimbursed pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Insurance Agreement.

(d)

(i) On any day occurring after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Insurer shall have the option to prepay the Class A Advances, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the sum of (x) the “Outstanding Amount” (as defined in the Insurance Policy) of the Class A Advances then being prepaid plus (y)(A) if such day is a Quarterly Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest thereof (excluding any interest in excess of the amount specified in clause (1) of the definition of “Insured Interest Amount”) to such Quarterly Payment Date or (B) if such day is not a Quarterly Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest thereon (excluding any interest in excess of the amount specified in clause (1) of the definition of “Insured Interest Amount”) to the date of payment plus any Breakage Costs due and payable (collectively, such amounts due referred to as the “Insurer Prepayment Price”).

(ii) The Insurer shall give the Collateral Agent at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the date on which the Insurer intends to make such prepayment. Not

later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such day the Insurer shall deposit the Insurer Prepayment Price into the Collection Account in immediately available funds. The Insurer Prepayment Price shall be distributed as set forth in Sections 3.01(c)(ix) and (xv)(2).

(iii) With respect to the Insurer Prepayment Price deposited into the Collection Account, the Collateral Agent shall, in accordance with the written direction of the Insurer, not later than 1:00 PM (New York City time) on the prepayment date, make distributions of the Insurer Prepayment Price in immediately available funds to the Class A Lenders.

ASSIGNMENTS

SECTION 11.01. Assignment.

(a) Each Lender (and each assignee of a Lender) may, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Borrower, the Insurer, the Administrative Agent and the

Collateral Agent, assign to an Eligible Assignee all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including the Advances) by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance; provided, that no such assignment of a Lender’s obligation to make Advances hereunder shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than (i) in the case of a Class A Lender $25,000,000 and (ii) in the case of a Class B Lender $5,000,000 (in each instance other than in the case of an assignment of all of such Lender’s interests under this Agreement), unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower; provided, further, that no such assignment to any Conduit Lender shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Insurer if, after giving effect to such assignment, the aggregate percentage of the assets of such Conduit Lender which are insured by the Insurer would equal or exceed forty percent (40%). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and have the rights and obligations of a Lender and an Indemnified Party hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations as a Lender under this Agreement and under the other Transaction Documents (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 11.01 shall not restrict any assignment by a Lender of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any Federal Reserve Bank.

(b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement, or by the Borrower, any Marvel Company or any Affiliate thereof under any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as collateral agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the

Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (vii) such assignee acknowledges the rights of the Insurer, individually and as the Control Party (if applicable), hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, and (viii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. No delivered Assignment and Acceptance shall constitute a restatement or other affirmation or update to any representation or warranty of the Borrower.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Advance, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of an Advance evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Advance, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee, simultaneously the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled”, with notice thereof to the Collateral Agent. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Insurer or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Advances) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the Collateral Agent.

(e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and Obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s Obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such Obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and Obligations under this Agreement, (iv) no such participation may be sold to a Competitor and (v) no participant under any such participation agreement shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Transaction Document, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower or any

Transaction Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, any Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of any amount hereunder, to the extent subject to such participation; provided, that, notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 11.01(e) to the contrary, solely with respect to participations sold by the Class B Lenders, such participations may provide to the participant pass-through voting, consent and approval rights.

(f) Subject to the second proviso of subsection (a) above, but notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any Conduit Lender may, with notice to the Borrower, the Insurer, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, assign at any time all or any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder and interests herein to (A) any other Lender, (B) any commercial paper conduit managed by such Conduit Lender’s sponsor or administrator bank, (C) any Affiliate of such Conduit Lender’s sponsor bank or (D) any Liquidity Provider with respect to such Conduit Lender. Upon the request of the Insurer, each Conduit Lender will (and will cause its prospective assignees to) provide the Insurer with the calculation of the total percentage of its assets which are insured by the Insurer.

In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Insurer, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, and any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Potential Event of Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 12.06. Indemnities.

(a) Without limiting any other rights which any Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under applicable Law, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all damages, losses, liabilities and actual and verifiable out of pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel) (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) arising out of, or relating to, or in connection with, (1) any representation or warranty made by the Borrower (or any of its Responsible Officers) under this Agreement or under the Transaction Documents which shall have been incorrect in any material respect when made, without giving effect to any clauses therein relating to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, (2) a failure of the Borrower to perform or observe its covenants or other obligations under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, without giving effect to any clauses therein relating to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, (3) any action, or failure to act, by the Borrower that would result in the failure to vest and maintain in favor of the Borrower, legal and equitable title to, and ownership of, the Film Rights (including for each Completed Film), free and clear of any Adverse Claim, (4) any action by the Borrower that would result in the failure to vest and maintain in the Borrower a first priority perfected security interest in any of the Collateral under the Master Distributor Security Agreement, free and clear of any Adverse Claim other than Permitted Liens, (5) any action by the Borrower that would result in the failure to vest and maintain in the Collateral Agent a first priority perfected security interest in any of the Collateral under this Agreement, free and clear of any Adverse Claim other than Permitted Liens, (6) the failure by the Borrower to comply with any applicable Law, or (7) any failure of the Borrower to pay when due any Taxes owed by it. Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the Borrower agrees to pay, on demand, to each Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to any of the matters referred to above in

this Section 12.06 or any investigation, litigation or proceeding with respect to any action, or failure to act, by the Borrower under any of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.06 to the contrary, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Party under this Section 12.06 in respect of Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party.

(b) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in subsection (a) above, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Borrower under such subsection (a), promptly give notice to the Borrower of the commencement of such action or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure of such Indemnified Party to give any such notice shall not (i) relieve the Borrower of its obligations under such subsection (a), except to the extent that such failure results in the forfeiture of rights or defenses and the Borrower incurs an increased obligation to such Indemnified Party under such subsection (a) on account of such failure, and (ii) in any event relieve the Borrower from any liability with respect to such Indemnified Party which the Borrower may have otherwise on account of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. If any such action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party, unless in the reasonable opinion of counsel for such Indemnified Party a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Party and the Borrower may exist in respect of such action or proceeding and representation of both would be inappropriate, the Borrower shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of such Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any such pending or threatened action or proceeding, unless such settlement includes (x) an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action or proceeding, (y) no admission or acknowledgment of culpability or wrongdoing by such Indemnified Party and (z) no provision for any nonmonetary relief to any Person to be performed by such Indemnified Party

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality

and enforceability of the remaining provisions or Obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 12.09. Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any Ancillary Document, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or in such Federal court. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such an action or proceeding. The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Corporation Service Company (its “Process Agent”), with an office on the date hereof at Corporation Service Company, 1133 Avenue of the Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000-0000, as its agent to receive on behalf of the Borrower and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower in care of its Process Agent at its Process Agent’s above address, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs its Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. As an alternative method of service, the Borrower also irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to the Borrower at its address specified in Section 12.02. The Borrower agrees that a final non-appealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

(b) If the Process Agent changes the location of its office referred to in subsection (a) above to a location which is not in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, then the Borrower shall, prior to such change of location, (i) irrevocably appoint in writing another Person with an office located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as its Process Agent under and for purposes of this Section 12.09 and (ii) furnish to the Agent such writing and a Process Agent Agreement executed by the Borrower and such other Person as its Process Agent.

(c) Nothing in this Section 12.09 shall affect the right of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Indemnified Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or affect the right of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any other Indemnified Party to bring any action or proceeding against the Borrower or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

Affiliates, officers, directors or employees other than those Affiliates, officers, directors and/or employees who need to know such Confidential Information in order to facilitate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including the transactions contemplated in clause (b) below)) and then only on a confidential basis, and (b) any third Person. Notwithstanding the preceding, each party may disclose any Confidential Information:

(i) to any of such party’s attorneys, consultants, accountants, financial advisors and independent auditors, and to any dealer or placement agent for any actual or potential assignees of, or participants in, any of the rights or obligations of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, under or in connection with any Transaction Document, who (A) in the good faith belief of such party, have a need to know such Confidential Information, (B) are informed by such party of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and the terms of this Section 12.10, and (C) are subject to confidentiality restrictions generally consistent with this Section 12.10,
